I Am the Swarm

Chapter 78 Fighting against the big-headed ants 4

The big-headed ants had lost so many troops that they were already unable to shrink back, and the effect of the next few harassments was not very good. In addition, it has been twenty days since the two sides fought, and it only takes more than twenty days for a soldier ant to grow from an egg to an adult.

In other words, if the batch of insect remains harvested by the big-headed ants were converted into troops. In the next period of time, the big-headed ant troops will be greatly supplemented.

And these few rounds of harassment were just killing the enemy, and the swarm didn't get any loot.

Therefore, the current situation of the big-headed ants is that there are a lot of materials stored, but it takes time to convert them into troops again.

This time will not be too long.

"It looks like it's time for a decisive battle." Luo Wen sighed, the tentacles swayed, and the order was issued.

Three million troops assembled, this is a very friendly picture for intensive phobia.

The army marched all the way, heading straight for the big-headed ant nest.

Because of the previous harassment, the big-headed ants no longer come out to collect leaves. There were not even patrolling soldiers outside the entire ant nest, and all the troops shrank back, unable to hide. And the insect remains collected before are enough to ensure that they can hide for a long time.

Therefore, the swarm swaggered straight to a place about 20 meters away from the big-headed ant's nest, but they didn't find it.

Under Rowan's arrangement, part of the troops scattered up the tree and began to collect large leaves. These twenty-centimeter-long leaves were bitten off by the super giants and fell to the ground naturally.

Below, scouting insects observe where the leaves fall, and then lead the worker ants to bring the leaves back to the forward position.

On the forward side, Luo Wen and the two giant scorpions went off together, their powerful claws acting as digging legs. The huge size allowed them to quickly dig a trench that was 20 centimeters wide, half a meter deep, and about ten meters long.

Although the trench is not wide, it is enough to deal with ants who basically have no jumping ability.

The worker ants spread the leaves brought back to the bottom of the ditch, and then carried some sticks and branches, and put them on both sides of the ditch as bridges. Even the slime worms did a simple anti-seepage treatment on the two walls of the trench.

Everything is ready, the army is ready for formation, and the next step is to call for formation.

There are too many exits from the big-headed ant nests, and they are too scattered, so it is not suitable for blocking the door tactics, they must be led out.

The insect swarm had harassed them too hard before, but now that they are determined to retreat and recuperate, they must do something quite excessive to completely anger the big-headed ants.

Therefore, calling a formation is a technical activity.

And Rowan is pretty good at it.

He didn't even need to jump up, just walked normally and easily crossed the 20 cm wide trench, and then ran all the way to the big-headed ant nest, raised his claws and started poking holes.

Regarding Rowan's actions, the big-headed ants were still patient at first, and insisted on the policy of retreating and recuperating. But the bug outside was too ignorant, and as more and more places were poked open, the big-headed ant finally couldn't stay still.

This is also understandable, anyone who has been stabbed with more than a dozen big holes must go crazy.

It happened that everyone was at home, and after a little mobilization, the menacing army of big-headed ants rushed out from dozens of exits.

As soon as Luo Wen saw that the battle was successful, he immediately ran away. He was not afraid of single-handedly fighting him, but obviously others would not single-handedly fight him.

Relying on the advantage of mobility, he stopped and walked, leaving traces of road signs from time to time, for fear that the big-headed ants would lose them.

Leading the enemy army all the way to the front of the ditch, opposite the ditch, one meter away, the swarm army is already in full swing.

Rowan easily walked across the trench and ran all the way to the rear of the swarm formation. But big-headed ants don't have this ability. They can only climb down the trench and then climb up from the other end. Or reach the other side through the bridge made of those branches.

However, these obstacles can only hinder their speed a little, and even the physical exertion is negligible.

The big-headed ant Chaoju took the lead with the small soldier ants behind him, and took the lead in attacking the same insect.

On the side of the swarm, there was naturally a super giant to meet them.

Luo Wen and the two giant scorpions wandered behind the front line, taking the opportunity to sneak attack the enemy super giant.

Whenever the enemy's super-giants are held up and unable to move, there will always be a claw that sticks out from behind the swarm's line, pinching their narrow waists and breaking them off.

This is Luo Wen's newly developed, the second form of Luo's fighting technique - a clean break.

It is not known how many such giant combat units are hidden in the big-headed ant's nest, and besides the two hundred that hatched at the beginning, several of them were killed in battle, and there has been no replenishment since then.

The main reason is that Luo Wen feels that this unit is not suitable for the swarm, and the price/performance ratio is too low. And the time is too tight, and there is no time to hatch and develop. There are so many big-headed ants, I don't know how long it is the result of holding back.

Therefore, these big guys have to be dealt with first, otherwise the super giant swarm may be at a numerical disadvantage after a while.

The big-headed ant found that the opponent seemed to be fighting a positional battle this time, and immediately became excited. Recently, they have been harassed badly, and every time they lose troops in vain, this time the opponent finally stopped running, and they will take the opportunity to kill them no matter what.

As a result, more troops poured out from the big-headed ant's nest, and a black cloud pressed towards the swarm like a dark cloud.

After a while, more than two million troops rushed out, and there was still a steady stream of troops behind them.

For the time being, the swarm still has an advantage in military strength, but when the combat strength of both sides has reached the million level, these advantages are basically invisible, and everything that can be seen is full of melee.

The timing is almost right, about 500,000 worker ants take their positions, and the formic acid solution is launched.

This wave of long-range strikes not only directly wiped out nearly 100,000 big-headed ants, the rest of the big-headed ants were also injured.

The swarm exerted force instantly and slowly pushed the front line towards the trench.

Another 500,000 worker ants were pulled out from the rear and sprayed formic acid solution concentratedly into the trench. Some big-headed ants that just climbed into the ditch were poured over their faces and gradually melted in the ditch.

The leaves that the swarms covered the bottom of the trench in advance played the role of water storage, slowing down the speed of the formic acid solution penetrating into the soil, and a large amount of formic acid solution accumulated in the trench, forming a "small ditch".

Although the ditch was still flowing at a slow speed, it successfully hindered the attacking rhythm of the big-headed ant troops.

They cannot cross the "small ditch" and can only cross the river through the branch bridge above to participate in the battle.

Now that there are some passages to cross the river, the big-headed ants no longer look for other ways to cross the river. However, due to the narrow bridge, the efficiency of crossing the river is not high, and a large number of big-headed ant reinforcements piled up on the other side of the river.

As a result, the army formation of the big-headed ants was cut off, and the big-headed ants who were fighting against the insects were temporarily isolated and helpless, and their number was at least 500,000. Moreover, they were bathed in a formic acid solution just now, and their combat effectiveness was greatly weakened.

This timing was carefully created by Luo Wen. Naturally, he would not let it go at this time. The insect swarm pressed all the soldiers, trying their best to eat these remnants as quickly as possible.
