BANG!
The bolt fired from the Demon-Hunting Crossbow pierced through the ant swarm, sending a cluster of Iron-Eating Ants flying.
BOOM!
The bolt plunged deep into the ground, and the surrounding Iron-Eating Ants were blasted away by the impact.
After landing, the airborne Iron-Eating Ants got back up, unharmed, and resumed their attack.
The Demon-Hunting Crossbow, designed to take down powerful Magic Beasts, couldn't display its full might against the numerous and smaller Iron-Eating Ants.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
"AHHH!"
"Get away! Don't bite me!"
"Ah! My finger...!"
CRUNCH! CRUNCH! CRUNCH!
The mandibles of the Iron-Eating Ants were incredibly sharp and immensely powerful.
A single bite on an ordinary person could sever tendons and tear flesh; in severe cases, even bones would be snapped.
Ordinary defenses couldn't withstand the attacks of the Iron-Eating Ants either.
Leather leggings, plate iron armor—the Iron-Eating Ants could chew through them with ease.
