After spending some time in solace, Blaze walked back to the lair. Despite his potential death, there were things he needed to check on.
First were the bone turrets, the lair's primary way of defense, other than the zombies, of course. Marrow was working diligently alongside her skeletons. They had already made over two dozen turrets.
While some of them were mounted on the ground, some of them had been turned mobile by strapping them to the ants' backs.
Although these could only be used twice, as they couldn't be connected to the corpse pits directly.
Satisfied with the progress, he left to check on the next thing. He moved further down the tunnels and found Myrme protecting her nest.
Thanks to her non-stop egg production, Blaze didn't have to worry about manpower anymore. The ants she birthed were more than apt at handling various tasks.
Myrme clanked her mandibles to greet him, and Blaze waved back before leaving again. That's when he received Saturn's report.
