A group of ghost-striped red ants followed behind Andrew, and the veterans retreated while fighting.
The ghost-striped worker ants died all the way, and only some stronger ghost-striped soldier ants survived tenaciously. These soldier ants gathered more and more, biting tightly behind Andrew's group. The hard armor on the soldier ants was relatively strong.
If they want to pierce the hard armor of the ghostly patterned soldier ants, these veterans must use all their strength.
Fighting like this, it is easy to be surrounded by ghost-striped soldier ants one after another. Andrew can only stay at the back of the team and frequently swing the butcher's ax.
Only the butcher's battle ax with bleeding properties in his hand can cut through the hard armor of ghost-marked soldier ants with one axe.
Samira stood on a high place, with faint red magic patterns emerging from her arms. She quickly opened her bow and fired arrows, frequently shooting the ghost-patterned soldier ants that rushed up to the ground.
The battle started again. Seeing the ghost-striped red ants pouring out from the bottom of the canyon, even Suldak felt a little numb. He ignored the changes in the ogre's body and looked around, looking for new terrain suitable for creating landslides.
.
…
"Hi, brother!" The ogre who had removed a layer of dead skin from his face had a face full of joy. Although it was also bald on the top of his head, his face was a bit round, his nose was also round, and he had a round face on both sides of his mouth.
With two reversed fangs, his eyes are full of curiosity about the new world.
Two minimalist magic symbols clearly appeared on his bald head.
When Gulitem saw him for the first time, he felt an indescribable kindness towards him. His mood was a bit complicated, but mostly he was happy.
Since the greeting was preempted by the other party, Gulitem decided to say a few more words, because he is an ogre who likes to reason with people: "Hi, brother! My name is Gulitem, and I think you should probably have a new name.
…”
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the other party.
An exaggerated smile appeared on the ogre magician's face, and he said to Gulitem:
"Perhaps we can split the names. You are called Guli and I am called Tem, because people used to call you: 'Gulitem...', but now they call us, they will still call: 'Guli...'
...Tem...', haha, do you think it’s funny?”
Gulitem touched his head and said naively: "You are indeed smarter than me, Gulitem."
The ogre magician covered his face with one hand, with helplessness written all over his face, and complained: "Well, I'm really impressed by you. You actually take it seriously. Your name is unique, and of course mine is too. I
There must be a name that is closer to my identity. What do you think of Ice Fire Eye? Maybe I can think of something better, such as using the name of this food. What do you think of Naohuaer? Isn’t it very memorable?"
At this time, Gulitem saw ghost-striped red ants swarming up from the bottom of the canyon.
The ogre magician looked at the hillside in astonishment and murmured:
"Brother, I think you are still a little too gentle with these crawling bugs. We can be more aggressive and violent. We must let them know that they are just an appetizer on the ogre family's recipe!"
Gulitem grinned and said loudly: "What a great idea!"
The ogre magician shouted: "Then let's start our battle!"
"Ice Armor!"
He recited a magic spell, and a light blue magic pattern appeared at the ogre's feet. A layer of cold blue ice armor appeared on the ogre's body. The ice armor carried countless ice skates,
It looks like a snowman walking out of a world of ice and snow.
"Path of Fire!"
Immediately after he recited another magic spell, a light red magic pattern appeared again at the ogre's feet.
Gulitem saw a layer of flame igniting under his feet, but he couldn't feel any heat. It felt very strange.
The ogre magician was about to recite the spell again, but at the critical moment, the small fireball suddenly went out. He said with some embarrassment: "Fireball... I'm a little dizzy, let me catch my breath."
Gulitem didn't notice the fireball at this time. He just looked at the ghost-striped red ants rushing up from the hillside. His eyes were already bloodshot, and his skin was covered with black tattoos. He roared fiercely.
voice:
"Roar……!"
With this battle cry, all the veterans in the cavalry battalion felt an inexplicable courage.
Then I saw the ogre waving a big stick, and when he ran forward, a path of flames appeared behind his butt, and the bone-crushing stick in his hand felt one size smaller.
The ogre magician was so excited by this lightning feeling that he screamed.
Facing those ghost-striped soldier ants, it was like a big elephant rushing into a pack of wolves. The bone-crushing stick in its hand turned around and immediately smashed the heads of the ghost-striped soldier ants in front of them.
The flames made those ghost-striped red ants dare not chase after the ogre...
The battle situation changed at this moment. Andrew and the seventeen veterans suddenly felt that this battle with great disparity in power could be won.
Then why run?
He didn't even notice the retreat signal from Surdak, and turned around and rushed towards the ant colony again.
The power of the ogre that appeared with the second head almost underwent a qualitative change. He ran rampant in the ant colony, and almost no ghost-striped red ant could stop him. In the end, a giant ogre emerged from behind the ant colony.
Ghostly patterned soldier ants stopped Gulitem.
But when Samira shot an arrow through the compound eye of the giant ghost-patterned soldier ant, the giant ghost-patterned soldier ant was unable to stop Gulitem.
It wasn't until the ghost-marked male ants from behind the ant colony entered the battlefield one after another that Surdak called on the frenzied warriors and retreated southward along the edge of the thorny stone pillar halfway up the mountain.
The ghost-striped red ants were naturally unwilling to let Surdak and his party leave so easily, and the ants rushed up one after another.
This kind of steep mountainous terrain greatly limits the crawling speed of ghost-striped male ants, and they can only follow behind and eat ashes for a while.
The mountain wall was a bit steep, so Suldak and his group walked very carefully.
Suldak carried Selena on his back and walked at the front of the team, while Andrew and Gulitem were at the back of the team responsible for breaking up the rear.
The team walked out of the mountain col for almost a kilometer when more than twenty ghost-striped male ants clung to the thorny stone pillars on the mountainside and crawled forward in a neat row. The queen ant was mixed in among them...
At this time, Suldak looked back at Andrew.
Andrew understood immediately, cut off the hemp rope-like fuse in his hand, connected the end of the explosive, and said to the ogre magician: "Hey, borrow a fire..."
The ogre magician immediately kneaded a fireball, casually lit the fuse in Andrew's hand, and threw the fireball back, causing two ghost-striped soldier ants to roll down the hillside.
The fuse kept burning rapidly...
Until the last moment, a series of loud noises sounded again from the mountain wall.
The mountain collapsed again, with a momentum like thousands of horses galloping. The thorny stone pillars along with countless earth and rocks shattered from the mountainside, burying all the ghost-marked male ants and the queen ant.
The entire mountain was shaking violently. The Surdak team could only hold on to the thorny stone pillars to prevent them from rolling down the hillside under the huge earthquake...
