Chapter 1311 1298. Ghost Ant Queen
In the night, Selena, who fell into a deep sleep again, suddenly woke up from her dream.
She hugged the quilt and sat up from the bed, and Suldak immediately opened his eyes. Seeing Selena pressing her hands on her chest, breathing heavily, he sat up and handed her a glass of water.
Selena held the water glass and took two sips to try to calm herself down. In the dark tent, Suldak could clearly see the horror in her eyes.
Even the sweat on his forehead was cold.
The icy night wind blew in through the gap in the tent, and Suldak stretched out his arms to wrap Selina's round shoulders, and asked her softly:
"What happened? The high priest Selina, the master of our dreams, also has nightmares?"
Selena let out a long breath. There is another compartment in this living tent. Signa and Nika live in the next room. They were supposed to live in another tent, but they were worried that they would In danger, Suerdak drew a curtain in his living tent.
Selena calmed down for a while before resting her head on Suldak's strong shoulders, as if she was worried that their chat would wake up Signa and Nika next door, so her voice was soft and **** Her round lips were pressed against Suldak's ears, and every breath she took seemed to make Suldak's ears itchy.
"I feel it, she's about to break out of her huge maternity ward and come out to fight with her bodyguard."
"The ghost ant queen?" Suldak asked in surprise.
This is winter, even if it is as powerful as the ghost-striped ant queen, is it not afraid of the severe cold? Suldak thought to himself.
"It's her. In my dream, her body was forcibly divided into two parts by her. One part is a huge delivery room, as big as twenty thunder rhinos connected head to tail. They are all emitting huge fraternal eggs, and the other part is its real body, which is very small compared to the delivery room, but the power she possesses seems to be able to cut open my dream with her fingers!" Selina whispered Said to Suldak.
The strength of the Ghost Ant Queen was expected by Suldak, but he did not expect that the Ghost Ant Queen would be so cruel to him, forcibly split his body into two, and the fighting body was completely independent from the delivery room. open.
He didn't know what harm the ghost-striped queen would do to the ghost-striped queen, but at least the ghost-striped queen was free.
It seems that the threat of the day is not just words, it has already begun to act.
"How many levels of Warcraft do you think it can possess?" Suldak turned sideways, put his arm around Selina's shoulders, and asked her.
Selena rested her head on Suldak's arm, curled her body, and hugged Suldak like a koala, with her long fluffy hair spread out, one hand on his chest, one Her leg pressed against his, and said: "At least level six, but because she left the delivery room, although most of the burden on her body was lost, it would also cause him to lose a lot of strength, but she had to leave the huge delivery room , in order to transform into a combat body."
"Dark, or we are going to exit the Dark Worm Valley. We can't beat it. Even if it is the power of night bestowed by the goddess Shilin, the fog of war I have mastered may not affect it at all, and it chooses to fight during the day. I probably won't be able to help you at all."
Selena's eyes showed a hint of worry, probably the Evernight Goddess reminded her.
"Oh, it's okay, what should come will always come, this is the winter in the Dark Worm Valley, don't you think it is not afraid of the cold?" Suldak said with a smile, and finally made a joke with Selena .
Selena’s looks like a lazy orange cat, squinting her eyes and responding:
"I have no idea…"
…
The next day, at dawn, there were no living ghost-striped red ants on the battlefield, and many dead ghost-striped red ants had already condensed a layer of hoarfrost.
In this cold and gloomy worm valley, there are four-wheeled trucks accompanying the military business group everywhere. These ancient Bolai horses are covered with thick blankets. When they are panting, they spray a lot of white from their nostrils. vapor.
It is simply unrealistic to carry the whole ghost-striped drone into a carriage. Now that the corpse of the ghost-striped drone has completely cooled down, it would be quite troublesome to dismember it even with a bone cutter.
The logistics department of the lord army can only call in a group of heavy armored infantry soldiers with magic weapons, and ask them to participate in dealing with the ghost-striped drones remaining in the dark worm valley.
The carriage drivers accompanying the military business group are a group of the most industrious porters. They try their best to carry every valuable spoil in this valley.
Members of the adventure group are not allowed to enter this valley at present, mainly because these valuable loot can be picked up everywhere in the valley. In the battle the night before yesterday, the harvested magic materials were much more than Suldak estimated. So much so that the horse-drawn carriages of the military merchant group that hurried over were seriously insufficient.
The carcasses of ghost-striped red ants in many places have been stacked together. At present, these trophies will not even be transported directly back to the military camp, but sold whole to these military merchant groups for packaging.
…
At the same time as the war broke out in the valley, more than a dozen ghost-striped drones appeared near the anthole at the foot of the mountain. The various adventure groups suffered heavy losses, and now they have become much smarter. They pay special attention to the precautions against the ghost-striped drones.
Even if he has gotten used to the hunting method of blocking the entrance of the cave every day, he is always on guard against the ghost-striped male ants suddenly coming out of the ground.
When a dozen ghost-striped male ants suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain, a group of strong men in the adventure group that had been prepared for a long time ran out to block these ghost-striped males.
In addition, Suldak had already made preparations. He also knew that the exit of the ant nest at the foot of the mountain would probably become the second escape route for the ghost-striped red ants.
In addition to some magical seals on the blocked hole here, the three heavy armored infantry regiments stationed on the side of the stone arch bridge have also entered a state of alert. He also left forty bed crossbows and twenty catapults here. car just in case.
The back road of the stone arch bridge must not be cut off.
At this time, the power of the bed crossbow and the catapult is highlighted. Facing the huge ghost pattern male ants, as long as the magic crossbow is used on the bed crossbow, it is still very effective.
The battlefield at the foot of the mountain has also won, and this time the adventure group has made a lot of money.
Most of the adventure groups hunted with great success at the entrance of the anthill at the foot of the mountain. The lords of the Bailin plane were like eating lemons.
People in the entire Bailin plane are paying attention to the war here. While the lords of Wilkes City are envious and jealous, they are pointing out that what Suldak is doing now is actually breaking the northern border. Occupied area balance.
In the past, there were ghost-striped red ants, and the Dark Insect Valley was also a hunting ground for birds.
It is precisely because of the existence of these red ants, and the peace treaty signed by Archduke Newman and the rocs, that the rocs have never crossed the thorny mountains to hunt the cattle and sheep on the grassland.
Now the lord army of Suldak is fighting with the ghost-striped red ants, which has seriously affected the hunting of the birds, so the cattle and sheep on the grassland have also suffered from this war. All this is due to Sul It was Dak who launched the war to eradicate the ghost-striped red ants.
So the lords of Wilkes City hope that Lord Suldak can end this war as soon as possible.
Suldak was also speechless about the idea of leading tigers and driving wolves by the noble lords in the Bailin plane. It seemed that they would rather welcome the beast tide than give up angering the northern rocs.
Moreover, he also handed over the air supremacy of the Bailin plane. To describe it in one word, it would be 'counseling'.
But Suldak has no time to argue with them. In the Green Empire, the lords who are qualified to open up territories have a considerable right to speak.
These noble lords on the Bailin plane will most likely only severely condemn and protest, so what's the use of that...
…
Lord Suldak's hunt for ghost-striped red ants in the Dark Worm Valley was a great success. The seventeen lord armies that joined the alliance all harvested a large amount of magic spar, and there is also a large undivided fertile land on the Three Rivers Plain.
A cavalry regiment passed through the giant mushroom forest covered with snow. This cavalry regiment belonged to the Langdon family and was currently patrolling the southwest area of Gloomy Worm Valley. There was a thick layer of snow, some of the loot that hadn't been transported away and most of the sharp ant nests were buried under the heavy snow.
The cold north wind has kept the temperature dropping these days, and the surviving red ants have burrowed back into their nests.
The current ant nest has been riddled with holes by the ghost-striped male ants. Suldak's method of smoking out the ghost-striped red ants by burning sulfur to produce poisonous gas can no longer be used at this time.
In the past few days, the commanders of the various lord armies are actively trying to find a solution. They are used to the sweetness of hunting ghost-striped red ants.
So even in such an extremely harsh environment, I never thought about withdrawing troops.
The most popular task right now is the patrol mission of the cavalry battalion. Although the weather outside is relatively bad, you can still pick up some leftover spoils during the patrol, so every cavalry regiment of the Lord Army is very actively striving for this task.
In this regard, Lord Suldak issued a notice to all the cavalry regiments. He strictly ordered the cavalry regiments to be vigilant when patrolling.
The cavalry regiment of the lord army thought that Lord Suldak was a bit alarmist. In such a cold weather, even if the ghost-striped red ants wanted to take revenge, as long as they got out of the cave and stayed for a long time, even the giant ghost-striped red ants would be frozen to death. Hard.
‘What qualifications do they have to fight in this weather? ’ This is what many lord armies generally believe.
When this cavalry regiment entered a dense mushroom forest, they happened to see a frozen ghost ant. Its outriggers were still curled and trembling in the cold wind, and it looked like it was still breathing its last breath. ...is actually alive.
The cavalry saw a frozen ghost-striped soldier ant under the mushroom forest, and it was still alive. This meant that the ghost-striped soldier ant was destined to have no mark on its forehead, so picking it up was completely a battle gain.
The merit points allocated in this way will be much higher. After all, the items on the merit exchange list, even a magic dagger, are very attractive to these cavalry.
All the cavalry quickened their pace, urging the horses to run forward.
Just when they came to the ghost-striped soldier ant, the ghost-striped soldier ant, which had been frozen in the wind and snow, suddenly stretched out two two-foot-long fangs, and grabbed the cavalry in front. It was cut in half, and the ice and snow on its body shattered.
The other cavalrymen were astonished, and drew out their long swords around their waists one after another, and rushed towards the soldier ant that killed its companion.
But they obviously ignored the uneven marks under the surrounding white snow. Dark red ghost pattern soldier ants rushed out of the ice and snow, inserting their sharp spear-like legs into the bodies of knights and horses. abdomen.
Each of the ancient Bolai horses was covered with thick heavy armor, but the abdomen and limbs were not protected at all. The ghost pattern soldier ants that came out of the snow just pierced the horse's belly at a sufficient angle.
All of a sudden, the war horses fell to the ground one after another, and the cavalrymen on the horses were also slaughtered by the ghost pattern soldier ants.
They are not even qualified to fight against these extremely ferocious ghost-striped soldier ants. Only the officers in the cavalry battalion are superior in their own strength, and they can cope with the ambush of these ghost-striped soldier ants. It's just that these ghost-striped soldiers The soldier ants seem to have been prepared for a long time, their movements are very fast, and they are not afraid of the severe cold at all.
The battle only lasted for a quarter of an hour. Finally, after the cavalry commander killed three ghost-striped soldier ants, he was dismembered by the swarming ghost-striped soldier ants. His body was almost cut off according to the parts of the armor. His head was directly swallowed by a ghost pattern soldier ant.
Not all the cavalry were killed and devoured by the ghost-striped red ants, and several cavalry officers with broken hands and feet were dragged into the ant nest.
Now the ant nests in the Dark Insect Valley have become riddled with holes, wind and snow can even blow in without hindrance, and there are traces of smoke and fire on some cave walls.
Even in the crypt ant caves, there are quite a few corpses of ghost-striped worker ants. This group of dark-red ghost-striped soldier ants quickly shuttled through the cave. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally entered a cave. It's big, but it's warm inside.
Many ghost-striped red ants were crowded in the cave, and when they saw these ghost-striped soldier ants coming in, they hurriedly retreated to the sides, revealing a passage.
At the end of the passage, on a flat rock lay a strange ghost-striped red ant. It was almost twice the size of a soldier ant, but it was far inferior to the ghost-striped male ant.
Its body has a human face, and it looks more like a plump woman above the chest, but the body behind it is three pairs of powerful outriggers. Her body lacks the abdomen, which looks so uncoordinated, and the body The face is actually full of dark golden patterns, even the two eyeballs are dark golden...
This was prepared yesterday. When you read this chapter, I should be on my way to push the window to see the sea. I won’t have it at night. I will make it up tonight and go home the day after tomorrow.
