《Just a Rock》Chapter 42: Fall of an Empire
Advertisement
A buzzing sound filled the air as the swarm came. The vibrations from their wings seemed to tear the very sky apart. Within the forest there was a clearing, within that clearing was another forest, within that forest was another clearing, but no longer. Everywhere around the colony was wasps, a swarming mass of death and destruction. Even the rock was coated with a thick layer of these beings. The only place not touched was the very entrance of the colony itself.
The wasps purposely kept their distance, staring into the seemingly empty tunnel. Once everything settled down, an eerie silence filled the area. The silence before the storm. It did not last long as the first wasp rushed inside the tunnel. The walls came alive to fend off this intruder. It seemed to be an unpenetrable defense to this one wasp. Once more entered the equation, all bets were off. The second and then the third entered followed by a fourth, fifth, sixth...
Wasps were much larger than ants so one might assume that the tunnels of ants were too small for a wasp to enter. However, the ants must account for multiple ants entering and exiting at once and larger variations of ants like the queen. Besides, this was a large colony that had been constantly expanding, so it's entrance was larger than usual. Not only could a wasp enter it, but several wasps could enter it side by side. Their excessive expansion led to their downfall.
Dozens of wasps flooded the underground passages, ravaging everything they could. The ant resisted with everything they could. One, two, three, four wasps fell. Ten, twenty, thirty, forty ants fell. The wasps were too strong. With every one that died, two replaced them. The ants were seemingly innumerable as well, but this proved to be false after several rounds of fighting. All the soldiers died and left only the workers to hold the last line of defense. And then, the fighting ended.

Rise of an Undead in a Fantasy World
Have you ever wondered what would happen if an undead being that doesn't know what it is like to be alive got free will? What would that undead creature do? How would they think? How would they view the world around them? Would they see life as futile and conquer the world, making it a lifeless danger zone to all living beings? Well, none of that matters, because that's not happening. Our main character is your average gamer from the modern world, yada yada yada... gets transported to a fantasy world through obscure means, blah blah blah... you know how this works. What separates him from the masses, however, are his views on ethics, and world politics. ... Oh, and the fact that he doesn't need to breathe. Message From Author! Accept?: Yes No This is only my second novel, so keep that in mind. I will try to keep the quality of the story to an acceptable level. This means something that I, myself would read. The quantity, however, may put some people off. Adding onto the whole "villainous lead" thing, I will make sure to have the character develop into that perfect little villain over time, instead of starting him out as a bloodthirsty murder-hobo. Of course, there will still be a lot of murdering and he may be a hobo for some of it, but it will mostly not be out of malice in the very early chapters. Last but not least, I have decided there will not be a defined release schedule for this, as I have lost interest in forcing myself to upload x amount of times a week. I will upload whenever I get a good idea, and take my time. That is, if I even feel like writing in the first place. Instead of taking breaks from this novel to do my own thing, I will take breaks from my daily life to post on here. Also, I'm lazy. Thanks for reading, and if you're alright with everything above, feel free to give it a read, and without further ado, have a good one! - Your Author P.S.: I will have little to no romance in the story, as I can't bring myself to writing it, so you don't have to worry about harems.
