Slowly but surely, Verrader and Aralee, began whittling down the Ramil ants that were milling outside of the nest.
They easily swooped down stealthily and killed the unsuspecting ants quicker than they could respond. Before and carrying their lifeless bodies away.
As tough as their carapaces were, at only the peak of the fiend beast rank, the ants could not hold up to the piercing power behind Verrader and Aralee's talons.
Still, the ants they had taken out were only fiend beasts and not any sort of challenge. But after they had killed twenty-one of the weaker Ramil Ants the nest finally noticed something was afoot.
Without any warning eight ants that were four times larger than the workers that had been moving around outside the nest burst out.
With quick head movements they surveyed the area and looked for the perpetrators that had been picking off the weaker members of their colony.
