"Shkraaaaaahhhhh"
Oh my god!
Something is squeezing through the hole where the workers just came through!
It's covered in... in Formicea gore!
So much I can barely see its features.
A true giant, covered in a blue-whitish shell, that is a great deal discolored by green Formicea gunk.
The creature is so massive that it's struggling to get through the hole which is barely big enough to allow a guardian to pass.
Still, eventually, the monster reaches the cave and I can have a closer look.
Instead of a torso there just seems to be a big, bulky gathering of mass, settled on six pointy legs.
Four tiny black eyes dot its face, located in the center, while its mouth consists of a flat beak.
Instead of claws, it has two giant pincers that protrude out of the sides of this walking bulwark.
Whatever this monster is, there's no doubt in my mind that it has no connection to the swarm.
This is because I can't perceive the slightest hint of pheromones coming from this thing.
"Shkraaaaaaaaaak"
It screams the moment it enters, but before it can do anything, the waiting guardians start rushing in on it.
They slash with their blade claws at it and all their spear tails propel out and pierce into the creature.
Now I realize that this narrow passage must be designed like this.
Only one of these creatures can, with visible difficulties, enter at once, and the waiting guardians, while slightly smaller, have still enough strength to take care of it.
While probably superior in a one-on-one battle, it doesn't have much of a chance in this situation.
Though, it manages to slightly scrape a guardian before it becomes limp.
Ultimately, it seems like I'm still safe.
Not long after this, the creature lies dead and workers advance, while the guardians apparently slash some more for good measure.

Well, I didn't have any intention of coming closer to that hole.
However, I think I'm at the right place and would like to learn more.
