And they guessed it right. Ling Jiu was indeed planning to do just that. Rather than wait for the Greatmaw Ants to come out one by one, he might as well charge in... and kill them all in one fell swoop!
Simple and easy!
Moreover, while it may look risky, but it was actually very advantageous for Ling Jiu. The Greatmaw Ants' numbers were astonishing, and if he was surrounded by a thousand Greatmaw Ants, even he would need to die.
Charging into the nest was a whole different ball game. The space inside the nest is limited, and the Greatmaw Ants cannot attack at the same time, so Ling Jiu would only need to face a couple at a single time, greatly reducing the pressure on him.
Things were as Ling Jiu expected!
After entering the nest, the Greatmaw Ants rushed over in a long line. It was a literal line as they came one by one to their deaths.
