The Power Ladder to the Divine Throne

Underground outpost.

Boom! Boom!

Endless thunderclaps continued to rumble underground.

Although the sounds were faint, the atmosphere within the outpost still grew tense.

After a while.

Inside the main hall.

Colonel Fan once again relayed the orders from above. "The swarm has descended in large numbers. They will soon reach the desert surface. The war has begun!"

The colonel shouted, "Monitoring Team, keep a close watch on any unusual activity within our jurisdiction. Everyone else, prepare to deploy at any time!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

The ant colony suddenly changed formation.

They crawled swiftly, arranging themselves into a circle.

At the very center of the circle was a small cluster of Sand Ants.

More than a hundred other Sand Ants formed two arm-length arrows, pointing respectively south and northeast of the circle.

He pointed at the wall. "The dot in the center represents our outpost, while the two arrows indicate the swarm's exact locations."
