The detonated stone pillars on the mountain were more than 100 meters long. The collapse of the mountain wall just happened to bury the queen ant and a group of male ant guards hanging far behind under the rubble flow.
The rock flow isolated most of the chasing red ants from behind.
There were only more than two hundred ghost-patterned soldier ants left on this side of the rock flow, and they were still biting behind Surdak and his group.
Surdak, Aphrodite, Samira, Gulitem and Andrew were in front, leading a group of veterans to rely on the complex terrain of the mountain wall. They first attacked the four giant ghost-patterned soldier ants headed by General
After killing them, the remaining two hundred or so common ghost-marked red ants did not pose much of a threat in front of everyone.
The battle continued until noon, and more than two hundred ghost-striped soldier ants were slaughtered by Surdak and his party.
Among them, the two-headed ogre slaughtered nearly half of the ghost-patterned soldier ants. Due to the strong suppression of power, the two-headed ogre could almost crush a ghost-patterned soldier ant using the "Thunder Combo"
The head of the ghost-patterned soldier ant died miserably, smashed to pieces, and the scene was almost too horrible to watch.
If it weren't for the precious magic cores inside the skulls of these ghost-patterned soldier ants, and the hard armor of the soldier ants also having a certain value, Surdak would probably have lost a lot this time.
Once Gulitem's ferocity breaks out during a battle, no one else can stop the two-headed ogre.
Surdak felt that Gulitem and his brother, the ogre magician, were still in the initial running-in period, and fighting would help the two of them become more understanding.
However, how to transport these soldier ant corpses back to Dodan Town was a big problem. In the end, Surdak could only make a temporary decision to pile all the ghost-marked soldier ant corpses together, and first separate the magic cores and intact soldier ants.
After the heads are taken away, the hard armor can only be piled here temporarily, and these materials can be transported back when there is a chance.
Everyone fought on the mountainside on the east side of the canyon, but did not cause the ant colony in the canyon to continue their pursuit.
Sami climbed to the top of a sloping stone pillar and looked down the mountain.
She pointed to the other side of the rubble flow and said to Suldak: "Boss, the last queen ant is evacuating to the north of the canyon with its bodyguards and ant colony. What should we do?"
Surdak saw that the red ants in the canyon were in a state of chaos. Apparently the third queen was trapped under the rockslide, and the large number of red ants in the middle of the canyon had lost their ruler.
The fourth queen ant is timid and fearful, probably because she is not strong enough, and even the number of male ant guards she controls is at least one.
When it realized that the three alliance ghost-striped ant queens were dying one after another, it was so frightened that it immediately began to retreat. With all its bodyguards, it actually began to retreat to the north of the canyon, and also gave up its plan to climb over the northern city wall from the Dodan Canyon to expand its territory to the south.
plan.
The fourth queen obviously did not have the ability to rule the entire ant colony. In addition to a group of male ant guards, only more than 10,000 ghost-striped red ants were affected by it and returned north together.
There are still a lot of ghost-striped red ants scattered in the canyon. There are at least tens of thousands of them gathered in the middle of the canyon alone. However, most of these ghost-striped red ants are workers with little strength. The number of ghost-striped soldier ants is relatively smaller than that of ghost-striped worker ants.
Said, not even one out of ten can be saved.
As for the giant ghost-striped soldier ants, they are even rarer.
However, there is still a large group of ghost-marked red ants gathered near the rock flow, and Suldak gave up the bold idea of returning to the rock flow to look for the queen's body.
Although this group of first-level veterans were blessed by God, they had experienced a day and night of high-intensity fighting. Suldak was worried about their physical exhaustion, so he decided to continue walking south along the east side of the mountain wall.
People finally returned to Duodan Town before the sun set.
The moment the sun set, the shadows of the mountains once again enveloped the Dodan Canyon. Selina, who had been sleeping for nearly a day, lay on Surdak's back and slowly opened her eyes.
…
The city guards stood at the top of the city. When they saw Suldak and his party returning safely, they immediately burst into cheers and kept waving the flags of the Luther Legion.
The guards cleared out the city gate. As the heavy iron fence at the main entrance slowly rose, the passage to the city gate opened. The smell of blood and rot filled the entire passage. Two rows of city defense guards lined up on the left and right sides of the city gate.
Surdak and his party welcomed them in.
When these guards saw the group returning to Dodan Town almost intact, they were so excited that they sang a song of triumph.
Aphrodite had already passed through the Gate of the Void and returned to the lava mine in Pussy Mountain.
Selina had just woken up and twisted her body slightly on Suldak's back, and Surdak felt it immediately.
Surrounded by a group of people, he quickly carried Selina into the small building where the military camp was located.
Nika and Xigna were waiting at the small building. When they saw Selina being carried back by Suldak, Nika turned pale with fright, and tears kept rolling down her cheeks like broken beads.
When she came down, she couldn't stop it no matter what, and she didn't dare to cry out. She could only cover her mouth with one hand and staggered behind Suldak, helping to hold Selena's legs.
.
Although Selena looked very bad, she was still conscious and said to Nika weakly: "Nika, why are you crying! Am I not fine?"
Nika nodded vigorously, but the tears just couldn't stop.
Signa followed beside him and looked very calm, but her face was also tense and she remained silent.
Surdak asked Selina to lie flat on the bed. The neckline of the Black Devil's robe was slightly open. A hollow crescent moon tattoo appeared on the fair skin on her chest. The hook under the crescent moon extended to Selena's right side.
The upper part of the breasts looks extremely delicate.
Signa has already brought a bowl of hot soup, which has a fragrant meat flavor, and feeds Selina to drink it spoon by spoon.
After drinking something, Selena's complexion seemed much better.
At this time, Surdak sat beside the bed and asked, "What happened?"
Selena was lying on the big soft bed. This was Suldak's bedroom, not a guest room that had been reduced to a treatment room.
She stretched out her hand and rubbed her forehead, squinting her lake-blue eyes, which glowed with a magnificent light like gems.
With a faint smile, his eyes were rippling, and he calmly said to Suldak: "When I helped you last night, I asked the goddess to send down a trace of divine will. With the divine thought's understanding of the laws of darkness, I temporarily possessed the body of darkness.
."
The body of darkness is a type of elemental body. With the body of darkness, the body can accept the dark elements from the outside world.
Selena glanced at Nika and pulled Signa to her side.
The soft candlelight in the room exudes a sense of warmth, and the surroundings are quiet.
Selena continued: "It's just that my body's affinity for the dark elements is not enough after all. The body of darkness relies entirely on the understanding of the dark laws by the divine mind. To maintain the dark mist, I have to use it."
The body extracts a large amount of dark elements from the outside world."
"These dark elements are not like the other four elements of water, fire, earth and wind."
"The four series elements make up the entire world. They will exist in a state of titanium in our world."
"But elements such as dark elements and holy light elements exist in another form, just like night and day."
"Dark elements are particularly powerful at night, but these dark elements are not as pure as titanium."
"The law in the dark world always follows the law of the jungle. The dark elements I extracted from the dark world mixed in a dark nightmare."
"It is a parasite in the form of darkness. It originally wandered in the dark world and devoured other weak dark creatures. Unexpectedly, it would be forcibly absorbed by the magic pattern array, and my body is much weaker than it. What she is good at is creating dreams. In
In its dream, it is almost invincible, even if I have a trace of the goddess's divine will."
"She pulled me into the dream, so I had a long dream..."
Selena's voice was soft, as if she was telling a story.
Suldak held Selina's slender white hand and asked curiously: "Then how did you defeat that dark nightmare?"
Selena smiled, held Suldak's hand with her backhand, and said, "I just remember that I couldn't hold it any longer. Suddenly I heard a sharp shout coming from outside. With the last moment of clarity, my mind...
My dream was also brought in for fusion. She probably knew that she couldn't occupy my body, so she left quickly."
Surdak didn't expect it to be like this. When he thought of Aphrodite walking into the Void Gate, the eyes under the mithril mask were still so dull, as if he had done some trivial things. The succubus always looked lazy.
Man, with a charming and evil smile, could only bite the bullet and say to Selena: "I'm afraid you have to thank Aphrodite for this..."
"She's helping me!" Selena was also a little surprised.
Aphrodite is the most unusual of the four followers around Surdak.
Especially because of her sensitive identity, she couldn't show her true face to others and could only hide in the dark, which made Selena fall into thinking.
After Selina fell asleep, Suldak left the small building.
The half-elf archer immediately followed him. She had a faint scent of soap locust on her body, her broken hair was still a little damp, and her salamander leather armor had been carefully scrubbed. At least there was no sour smell on it. She was carrying a '
The Painting of Withering 'Hunting bow, with a pot of arrows hanging on the waist, swinging on the ground when walking, making the slender figure look very enchanting.
With her excellent archery skills, Samira has established prestige in the garrison camp.
Along the way, the soldiers in the camp saluted the two men one after another.
Seeing that everything was normal in the camp, Suldak took Samir to the north wall. Adams and Gallatin had been guarding the city for a day and a night and had just climbed out of the marching tent on the wall.
When they came out, it seemed that they took advantage of the fact that there was no fighting at the city in the afternoon, so they each slept in the marching tent for a while.
The setting sun had almost set into the mountains, and it was completely dark inside the canyon.
At this time in the past, ant colonies have begun to invade the territory in large numbers, but tonight there was no movement. The scorched earth under the city wall was covered with the stumps and broken legs of ghost-striped red ants, but no ghost-striped red ants could be seen.
The fire wall in front of the city wall had been broken in several places, and the city defenders applied to Adams for a few barrels of kerosene to relight the extinguished section of the fire wall.
Surdak waved his hand to the city defense guard and said to the city defense guard: "There is a high probability that the ghost-marked red ants will not attack the city tonight. It doesn't matter even if the fire wall under the city wall is extinguished. It is just convenient for us to attack the city."
Collect the magic core inside the ashes!"
The city guard looked happy, gave a military salute and ran away.
It didn't take long for the news to spread around the city, and the nervous city guards relaxed.
The ghost-marked red ants in the canyon have turned into a pile of loose sand. Even if some of the ghost-marked red ants want to attack the city, they will not pose any threat to the north wall.
Adams and Gallatin accompanied Suldak on a tour of the city wall. Suldak just ordered the city guards to collect the giant crossbow arrows on the mountain walls on both sides of the city wall.
The mountain walls on both sides have been shot to pieces, and some giant crossbow arrows are still stuck with the corpses of ghost-marked soldier ants. At night, under the light of the fire, the mountain walls on both sides are as scary as hell. It is easy to scare yourself.
Own.
The cleaned ghost-striped soldier ants can also be soaked in the pit.
…
At this time, a burst of war horses neighed from under the northern city wall.
Surdak looked down from the city wall and saw Andrew running out of the garrison camp with a cavalry battalion.
A well-dressed cavalry was waiting at the foot of the city, and in the team was the big ogre Gulitem.
Andrew climbed up to the top of the city in three steps and two steps, found Suldak on the city wall, and shouted loudly: "Report..."
Andrew was unwilling to give up the corpses of more than two hundred ghost-patterned soldier ants piled up on the mountain wall. He returned to the garrison camp and discussed with his eight squadron leaders. Everyone felt that it was very necessary to transport the corpses of those ghost-patterned soldier ants.
Come back, no matter what, these Warcraft materials are a big fortune. Since everyone has earned merit points, it is necessary to bring this wealth back.
Now Andrew climbed up the city wall and asked Suldak to lead the cavalry over there overnight to transport those Warcraft materials back.
Surdak thought for a moment and then agreed.
As the iron fence of the city gate was raised again, a group of cavalry entered the Dodan Canyon in a mighty manner, followed by fifty four-wheeled carriages.
After receiving this news, the mercenary union could not sit still.
When the city gate was opened a few times before, the brave mercenaries ran outside the city and basically made a lot of money. This time, the president of the mercenary union did not want to miss such an opportunity and hurriedly chased the city defense brigade.
At the supply warehouse, an application was made to Surdak, who was checking the loss of military supplies in the supply warehouse, hoping that the mercenary group could also take this opportunity to go out of the city to hunt.
In view of the recent strong support of the mercenary group for the defense of the northern city wall, Surdak agreed to the application submitted by the president of the mercenary union.
Even at night, Duodan Town becomes particularly lively.
Groups of mercenaries were quickly organized, walked through the alleys of the town, and gathered under the north city wall. Everyone was checking the equipment they carried and showed great excitement.
Not long afterward, these mercenaries disappeared into the night outside the northern city wall.
