Lord Highlander

It may be that the ant queen hiding in the depths of the dark worm valley finally realized that the battle between the ant army and the lord army in the cave has been deadlocked. It largely affects the time of the next ant infestation outbreak.

Therefore, the number of giant soldier ants participating in the battle began to increase among the soldier ant colonies in the cave, and the number of ordinary ghost-pattern soldier ants participating in the battle was relatively reduced.

And the ghost-patterned soldiers are no longer that kind of fighting style. A few days ago, they were like, "No matter what the enemy army on the other side is, anyway, I must die in front of the battle anyway." '

Now it is a tug-of-war under the leadership of the giant ghost-patterned soldier ants, waiting for an opportunity to cause some heavy damage to the lord's army when confronting the lord's army.

In fact, the tactical soldier ants, the Ghost Empress Ant Queen, were quite successful in their implementation.

Compared with a few days ago, more seriously wounded soldiers have been lifted from the battlefield recently.

But for Suldak, he hoped to see a few more giant soldier ants, because every time a giant ghost pattern soldier ant appeared, it meant that he could harvest some life magic patterns.

Every time the giant ghost pattern soldier ants appeared, both Samira and Carrie Decker could appear in time and hunt them down. They killed more than half of the giant soldier ants with their own strength.

In fact, the lord army is not in a hurry to invade the Dark Insect Valley, they hope to reduce more ghost-striped red ants in this cave.

Fighting in this channel can make the elite forces more concentrated.

In addition, the lord armies are not very interested in occupying the Dark Worm Valley, and they hope to take this opportunity to harvest more monster materials.

This kind of thing of relying on war to gain wealth has been rare in Bena Province in the past few years.

Although Suldak has been strictly controlling the total strength of the lord's army, the fighting power of the lord's army has continued to grow this winter. In December, the original 50,000 lord's army has grown to Eighty thousand.

Originally, the following military merchant groups, each merchant group had the right to operate a single product, so that at least these military merchant groups could make money.

But now, there seems to be a trading market near the camp. Merchants come to buy magic materials every day, and the bidding for the goods has become very fierce.

Until Andrew led a group of constructed knights to repel the ghost soldiers and ants, the soldiers of the lord army stood on the ledge at the exit of the cave on the other side, looking at the clusters of giant mushrooms under their feet, many of which were colorful , and even some mushrooms have dark red fluorescence.

Almost everyone was stunned by this magnificent scenery...

Those giant mushrooms grew so exaggeratedly that they were actually taller and stronger than the trees in the forest outside. The ghost pattern soldier ants were forced to retreat steadily by Andrew's knight formation, and the lord army finally occupied the cave.

The ghost-patterned soldier ants swarmed up from all directions, but under the joint attack of the Constructed Knights, they did not regain control of the cave.

Then the heavy armored infantry regiment built fortifications at the entrance of the cave here, and set up ten bed crossbows facing the entrance of the cave, and finally occupied the cave completely.

As long as ghost pattern red ants step into the entrance of the cave, the first thing they have to face is the giant crossbow bolts of the ten bed crossbows. Now Suldak has a large number of magic crossbow bolts bought from the imperial capital, and they will not be able to do so on the battlefield. Be stingy with these consumables, as long as you can retrieve the corpses of those ghost-striped red ants after victory, you will make a solid profit.

And here the heavy armored infantry soldiers and archers, under the leadership of senior officers, actually occupied the exit of the cave leading to the dark worm valley.

However, after entering the mushroom forest of the Dark Insect Valley, the lord army has been dispatched five times in a row recently, and each time they paid a heavy price before hurriedly retreating into the fortifications of the cave.

The main reason is that there are a large number of ghost pattern flying ants in the dark worm valley. This kind of flying ants are extremely fast. Only a few second-rank experts under Suldak can deal with them. The weird flying speed is helpless.

As long as a lord army enters the mushroom forest of the Dark Insect Valley, these ghost-striped flying ants will go crazy and take the initiative to attack.

Although the heavy armored infantry were wearing heavy armor, they still had nothing to do with the ghost pattern flying ants, and the other lords could only be beaten passively.

So for the next period of time, after occupying the cave, the lord's army did not make any achievements. They just guarded the entrance of the cave, waiting for batches of ghost pattern soldiers to rush up and shoot them in one fell swoop.

December is the season of snowflakes, and the mushrooms in the Dark Insect Valley seem not afraid of the severe cold, but the ghost pattern worker ants finally chose to get into the ant nest to avoid the severe cold under the low temperature.

The lord army that occupied the cave was finally able to send troops into the round valley when a heavy snowfall was about to freeze the Dark Worm Valley.

In fact, this place is bigger than Suldak expected, and the entire valley is covered with giant mushrooms.

The main residents here are probably these ghost-striped red ants. They are usually used to eating these mushroom trees as food. Many ghost-striped worker ants sneak out to collect some food in this severe cold environment, and then return from the secret exit. crypt.

The real ant nest is in the southwestern part of this valley. Some soldiers have found the entrance of the ant nest, but most of the ant nest openings have been sealed by a kind of clay composed of saliva mixed with gravel, and the surface of many cave openings has been covered. Snow was nowhere to be found.

The lord's army searched around this dark worm valley, but they didn't find any use value for these mushroom trees. Probably only ghost pattern worker ants would eat them.

After the gloomy worm valley was completely frozen in winter, it was filled with death-like silence.

Surdak found many aged mushroom trees, which looked more like some hard firewood in appearance.

Occasionally, a roc would fly across the sky. Whenever this happened, the soldiers of the lord army would show a cautious attitude towards it.

Suldak never expected that the lord army could easily occupy the entire Dark Worm Valley because of the weather, but this time Suldak did not order to continue the pursuit. He explored the valley for several days, The entrances of the caves that were detected were marked one after another, and then Suldak began to gradually gather the army, letting the troops take turns to guard the cave leading to the outside.

During this period, there were also several battles in which the ghost-striped red ants braved the severe cold to attack the lord army's garrison.

When the battle just started, the ghost pattern soldier ants were still very brave. After they stayed in the dark worm valley for half a day, the cold wind in the valley had already frozen their limbs, and even walking seemed very difficult...
