Suldak dug out a hand-drawn map from the half-collapsed camp. On this map, the entire Thorny Mountains and the Invercargill Warcraft Forest were clearly drawn. The Dodan Canyon appeared in the central area of the Thorny Mountains.
.
There is a vast green grassland to the south of the Thorns Mountains, and to the north of the Thorns Mountains is a strip of hilly mountains. To the north is the Invercargill Warcraft Forest and the Dark Worm Valley. To the north is the unknown that no one has explored.
area.
Perhaps there was a certain third-level great mage or great swordsman in the Green Empire who had set foot in that area.
But so far, no map or any information has been released.
The hand-drawn map of Surdak is also based on the military map. Various adventure groups have added information about the Warcraft Forest one by one. Many places are not very detailed.
At the north exit of Dodan Canyon, Suldak corrected several mistakes himself.
Although this map is full of loopholes, it is the only map that Surdak can use.
"Where are those ghost-striped male ants?" Suldak stared at the map and asked Andrew.
Andrew quickly came over, pointed to an area of hilly and mountainous areas, and said with some uncertainty: "Oh... it's probably this area. The terrain on this map is somewhat different from the actual mountains, and I can't tell where they are.
"
Surdak hammered his forehead in distress.
At this time, Gulitem, who was sitting outside the tent, stuck his head in again and shouted to Surdak: "I can find them, I remember the smell of meat on them. No matter where they go, I can find them."
They pulled them out."
Surdak finally let out a sigh of relief and stood next to the map and muttered: "After killing so many of my cavalry, how could it be possible for them to escape so easily..."
Lance opened the tent curtain and happened to hear Suldak's words.
He stood at the door with a surprised look on his face and asked Surdak: "Dak, aren't you planning to return to Dodan Town with these seriously injured cavalry?"
Suldak walked up to Lance, invited him into the tent, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "You helped me send these wounded soldiers back to Dodan Town. I want to kill that cunning queen ant.
"
"Ah, why is it me?" Lance said with a grimace, and then asked Surdak: "Okay, even if I want to help you, how can I send the cavalry back to Dodan Town with so many serious injuries?
"
Surdak said to Lance: "I ask you for help, of course, for my reasons. I know that Miss Galena is a water magician. If she is willing to help, she can do some routine work on these wounded soldiers along the way.
Of course, if she is willing to help me take care of these wounded soldiers in Dodan Town for a period of time, I will be grateful."
"How long will it take?" Lance asked with a frown.
"Wait until I come back!" Surdak replied.
Lance took a deep breath and said bravely: "No problem, I can promise you on behalf of Galena."
"Thank you." Suldak tapped Lance on the shoulder.
A cavalry squadron leader stood at the door of the tent and reported: "Boss, the carriage from Dodan Town is here."
When Surdak and Lance walked out of the camp, they saw a group of four-wheeled carriages slowly approaching from the direction of Dodan Canyon under the cover of night.
It was dimly lit around the camp, and Selina was sitting in the truck at the front.
The coachmen had a premonition that something bad was going to happen when they saw that the piles of bonfire ashes on the outside of the camp had not been completely extinguished and there were dead ghost-striped red ants everywhere. No one was cleaning them up.
When they drove the carriage into the camp, they saw that the camp was in a mess and many wounded soldiers were lying on the ground leaning against tents. The carriage drivers looked panicked.
They rushed over from Dodan Town and originally planned to transport the hard armor of soldier ants harvested by the cavalry back to Dodan Town. However, looking at the current situation, the carriage drivers all walked up to Selena and asked her what to do next.
manage.
Selena held her long skirt in one hand, stepped over the corpse of a ghost-striped soldier ant, and walked along the hilly slope to the front of the camp.
Seeing that Suldak was wearing a messy salamander skin armor and seemed uninjured, his anxious heart was relieved. He lowered his head and made a praying gesture, and whispered in a low voice: "Oh, thank you most.
Dark Goddess!”
Regardless of the blood stains on Surdak's body, she stepped forward and hugged Surdak, and then she felt at ease.
Surdak put his arm around Selena's soft shoulders and said to her: "The most urgent task now is to organize these carriages to transport the wounded soldiers back to the military camp. The hard armor of these soldier ants is temporarily piled here."
The hills and mountains at night are filled with stars.
The night wind was blowing, and some thin whistling sounds could be heard in the distance, like ghost-striped red ants constantly gnawing on something.
The tents on the hillside were filled with wounded soldiers. Selena asked Suldak:
"Take them back to Dodan Town now?"
Suldak walked through the camp and checked on the injured cavalry while saying:
"Yes, Lance and his magician friends will escort you all the way back to the military camp."
Selina asked: "Lance Magician and the others escorted us back to Dodan Town, which means... you still want to stay?"
Surdak nodded, with a serious expression on his face, and said firmly: "Other ant colonies can live longer, but we must kill that queen."
"Okay! Then be careful." Selena whispered.
She clenched her fists secretly and lowered her head to prevent others from seeing the cunning look in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, Surdak actually wanted to destroy this ghost-marked ant colony. This time she wanted to stay, but if she said it now, she knew that Surdak would definitely not agree.
Selina then began to organize trucks to lift all the seriously injured cavalry onto the carriages. The carriages of the four-wheeled trucks were covered with a layer of felt, allowing more than ten cavalry to lie on them at the same time. Twenty four-wheeled carriages were almost full.
wounded cavalry.
In addition to more than two hundred wounded cavalry, Lance also placed more than sixty jars filled with ashes in wooden boxes and placed them on the carriage.
During this period, Selena sneaked behind the tent, clasped her hands and prayed to the goddess, 'The goddess comes', and then walked out as if nothing had happened.
The cavalry captain handed Selina the list of dead cavalry in her hands. Selina nodded slightly and put the list away.
The convoy did not rest at the camp.
Under the starry sky, twenty four-wheeled carriages rushed back to Duodan Town overnight.
Suldak personally put Selena into the carriage and watched her disappear into the night in the carriage.
It was already early in the morning when the convoy arrived at Duodan Town. Seeing so many wounded soldiers being brought back by carriages, the entire northern city wall defenders were in an uproar. Everyone could not believe what they were seeing.
The coachman transporting the wounded ran to Lance and asked for instructions on what to do with the wounded.
Only then did Lance discover that Ms. Selena did not return to Dodan Town with the convoy. He didn’t even know when she left, and he didn’t notice it all the way. If it hadn’t been for the carriage driver after arriving in Dodan Town.
He came to ask how to deal with these wounded soldiers, but he didn't even notice that Selina had left.
Fortunately, before Selina secretly left the convoy, she left a message for Lance, asking him to go to the military camp to find the temporary person in charge, Adams, after arriving in Dodan Town.
…
It was long after the convoy left, and the cavalry in the camp only took a short rest and began to pack up under the cover of night.
Selena walked out of the darkness and walked directly into Suldak's tent.
At this moment, her eyes had a different expression, her pupils changed to another color, her whole face was serious and silent, and she exuded a faint coercion that did not belong to her.
When she saw Suldak, she simply said: "I want to stay and help you!"
Then he sat silently in the corner of the tent.
Surdak has experienced several 'goddess arrivals' recently, and has become somewhat accustomed to this. He knows that Selina has not lost her sense of autonomy at this time, but has a trace of spiritual thought sharing her body. This divine thought can give
She brings some unexpected benefits.
For example, the body has more affinity to dark elements, and the body has some stronger abilities.
In this state, Selena can cast "Dark Mist" at night. This kind of domain-wide magic can completely block the perception of the ghost-marked red ants, and can almost perfectly suppress the ghost-marked red ant queen.
Now that he has stayed, Surdak will not say anything more. He just feels that this dark goddess seems to be very enthusiastic and is too kind to the envoys under her. She is just a little cold and not very talkative.
.
In fact, Surdak has a bit of a misunderstanding about the divine will. The divine will that the Dark Goddess descended on Selena does not have subjective consciousness or independent thinking. It only has a trace of the goddess's breath, which can give Selena the possession of
Powerful dark force.
Selina's mood has changed somewhat, mainly due to her own reasons. She feels that she is a dark apostle at this time, and of course she must maintain a little dignity.
Perhaps this spiritual thought can occasionally feed back some of the apostles' subtle emotions, but this is a trivial matter.
…
The cavalry dismantled the half-collapsed tent of the military camp.
Andrew was reorganizing the remaining cavalrymen of the cavalry battalion outside the camp. These cavalrymen recovered quickly under the blessing of the 'divine body'.
The two-headed ogre said that he wanted to go outside the camp to find the smell of the ghost-striped ant queen, but some cavalry heard exaggerated fighting sounds behind the hills outside the camp. The cavalry who ran over to investigate came back and said that the ogre was there.
Hitting yourself, it seems that there should be a little dispute between Gulitem and his good brother Naohua.
Samira stood on the platform on the back of Thunder Rhinoceros, her whole body seemed to blend into the night, as if there were a pair of eyes from high up staring at the movement on the ground.
Surdak took Selina to climb onto the Thunder Rhinoceros of the second formation, opened the door of the wooden house, and saw Aphrodite wearing a black robe lying on the floor of the wooden house, her graceful figure looking a little awkward in the darkness.
enchanting.
Surdak said a little speechlessly: "I didn't even summon you, how could you come here by yourself?"
Aphrodite sat up lazily, with a faint smile on her face, and said to Surdak:
"I made the summoning scroll with my own hands. Of course, you have to accept my wishes occasionally, and I feel that if I don't come over by myself, you won't even bother to notify me about this kind of thing, and you don't want me to help..."
For this magical contract of equal symbiosis signed with the succubus, Surdak gradually felt that the rights and interests that belonged to him seemed to be a little less.
Especially after Aphrodite handed several summoning scrolls to herself, although they can summon each other... other black magicians study those powerful forbidden black magics, mainly to summon powerful demons from the hell world.
, even if you are enslaved for a short time, then the demon will return to the hell realm.
But now Surdak discovered that the summoning scrolls he owned didn't seem so reliable.
This equal and symbiotic contract is obviously more convenient and advantageous for spellcasters.
Suldak walked into the cabin and explained: "I think I can handle it."
Selina opened the door directly and walked into the next room, sitting alone in the room.
Aphrodite asked Surdak to sit down in front of her and said to him with a smile:
"Hey... we signed a symbiosis contract. You can't always take risks or put yourself in danger. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to have a good vacation at Pussy Mountain. It would be impossible to enjoy a volcanic ash bath by the hot lava pool."
My mood..., besides, I think I can try the power of these two magic patterns, I feel like my wings are back again."
Aphrodite stood up and straightened out her bulging chest. She turned her breasts around in front of Surdak, and the black robe clung tightly to her body, showing off the graceful curves of her back.
…
"Head, everyone is ready."
Andrew stood under the Thunder Rhino's belly and shouted loudly towards the wooden house above.
Surdak walked out of the wooden house and saw the cavalry in order
The two-headed ogre with a bruised nose and swollen face stood beside Andrew. Sure enough, as the ancient fable said, the only one who can hurt the ogre is himself...
"Gulitum, which direction are they?" Surdak asked the two-headed ogre.
Giving them something to do may divert their attention. For a pure-blooded ogre, there is nothing that a soup pot cannot solve.
"Right over there..." the two-headed ogre said angrily.
It seemed that the fight just now was very fierce. His voice changed and his speech was a little unclear.
"Let's catch up!"
Surdak gave the order.
The cavalry, led by the ogre, lined up neatly and walked down the slope.
He left the messy camp in front of him behind him, and even ignored the corpses of the ghostly patterned soldier ants.
The team walked along the valley between the hills for about ten kilometers.
During this period, Samira, standing on the back of the Thunder Rhino, shot and killed dozens of ghost-striped soldier ants wandering around the hills and mountains.
The two-headed ogre was walking at the front of the team. He suddenly stopped, raised his head and shouted to Surdak: "Boss, there is the smell of ants in front of me that I am familiar with. I am sure it is those ghost-striped male ants."
.”
Surdak was riding on Gubolai's horse and didn't want to say a word. He was obviously in the cavalry team, not far away from him...
Gulitem continued to shout at the top of his lungs, as if he would not stop until his good brother's stupid ears were deafened.
"We have a dark realm, this time we touch it and start killing..."
