However, the insect swarm origin in his body really felt the call from the insect swarm sensor tower in the distance.
Not only him, but countless flying dragons in the sky, including the huge Butcher, suddenly showed a panic, and kept screaming upwards. They also began to turn around and retreat quickly in the direction of the City of Insects.
The insect soldiers on the ground quickly retreated into their respective tunnel worms. All the tunnel worms suddenly retreated into the insect swarm tunnels, followed the insect tunnels, and rushed to support the city of insect swarms.
Including Ling Yu, all the humans present showed incredulous and unbelievable expressions, and their eyes widened. They saw that the insect tide that was killing people everywhere just now had all retreated inexplicably.
"Something big must have happened in the city of insects, otherwise Lord Chi wouldn't have recalled all the insects at once!" Ling Yu said in great surprise, "What kind of enemy is it that makes Lord Chi so panicked that he can't even win the victory of mankind at his fingertips?"
How about instead of just recalling the Butcher and all the Nydus Worm troops?"
"Rebellion? Invasion of the Wood Spirit Zerg? Or foreign enemy?" Ling Yu was puzzled.
…………
At this time, the human battlefield abandoned by the Zerg looked as far as the eye could see. It was devastated and full of desolation. The shadow of death was everywhere, and howls and cries resounded from every corner of the entire fleeing team. Some had lost their loved ones, and some had lost their loved ones.
Comrades in arms have lost everything. Everywhere you can see pairs of desperate and helpless eyes, pairs of numb and dead eyes.
However, the road still has to go on!
As long as there is breath left, human beings, the most vulnerable race on earth and the most tenacious race, will never give up any chance of survival.
Because, living is the greatest meaning of life!
Under the brief rest and urging of the army, the entire Tianwu City escape team buried the dead, helped the injured, and once again took their heavy steps and embarked on their long road to escape to the imperial capital Yanjing.
This cruel battle with the Zerg and the God of Death is far from over.
Although hundreds of thousands of flying dragon troops and hundreds of thousands of tunnel worm troops were used in this large-scale pursuit of the Fire Spirit Zerg, this huge fleeing team also lost nearly 60% of their lives...
However, as long as hope remains, no one, no god, no insect can stop them from pursuing the path of survival.
As the sun set, this huge human army once again took heavy steps and continued to advance toward the northwest.
On the horizon not far away, the outline of a human city vaguely appeared. It was Jinling, a famous city in the past of the Dragon Kingdom.
This has become an abandoned city. The Fire Spirit Zerg and the Wood Spirit Zerg each once gathered millions of Zerg soldiers and launched a protracted Zerg civil war in this famous eastern city. After that, both sides suffered losses and each retreated, but this also made this generation
The famous city was destroyed in one fell swoop.
At this time, in the cold dark night, the ruined city of Jinling was like a dying ancient beast, quietly crawling there, looking ruthlessly at the vicissitudes of the world.
After a day and two nights of arduous travel, and a hellish fight by the Zerg, the entire escape team was exhausted.
After the vanguard of the army entered the city and conducted a small-scale reconnaissance, they rested on the spot in the southern suburbs of Jinling.
In the center of the city in the distance, puffs of flames would appear from time to time. Some of the remaining wood spirit bugs in the city, numbering about a thousand, were being encircled and annihilated by the Tianwu City army.
But in this pitch-black night, a hint of the hissing of insects from afar was enough to make everyone's nerves tense up instantly.
About half an hour later, countless bonfires were raised throughout the southern suburbs of Jinling's abandoned city. Many soldiers and civilians, in small groups, went directly into some abandoned houses in the city, using them as temporary shelters from the wind.
A place to keep out the cold.
At this time, in a huge and dilapidated building in the southern suburbs, all the officers of Tianwu City, big and small, were gathered in a huge conference room.
In the middle of the conference room, there is a huge oval round table. The most senior officials of the military department are sitting there with solemn expressions and the atmosphere is extremely depressed.
As the representative of the Apocalypse, He Rentong was also fortunate to occupy a seat at the round table.
Although he is now seriously injured, his heroic performance in the Zerg sneak attack still impressed all the officers present and made the entire military leadership pay more attention to the existence of this elite human team.
At this time, there is still an empty chair directly in front of the oval table!
Its owner has not yet arrived.
And that person was the core of the entire military meeting. Before he came, the entire meeting room was in an inexplicable silence.
Click!
At this time, there was only the sound of the door opening. Under the guidance of an adjutant, a senior officer with a big belly walked into the conference room, swinging his fat body.
All the Tianwu City officers present, big and small, straightened their backs and stood up together in an instant.
"Commander!" all the officers said in unison.
"Everyone, please sit down!" The visitor nodded and said.
This person was Gao Xiangwu, the deputy commander of the three armies of Tianwu City, but after Dou Chengwu died on the battlefield, he had already been promoted to a regular officer.
At this time, Tianwu City's large-scale retreat plan was a major decision he made decisively.
Gao Xiangwu sat down on the first chair directly in front of the oval table, straightening his back to make the gold medals on his left chest shine even more.
As soon as he put his hands with pure white gloves on the conference table, he couldn't help but frown.
The table is so dirty!
It wasn't wiped clean at all.
Gao Xiangwu glared at the adjutant next to him angrily, making him shrink back like a turtle.
Commander Gao is famous for his love of cleanliness. Even during wartime, he also pursues a spotless environment around him.
Now he was feeling a little unhappy when he saw the old table in the conference room, and now he found out that it hadn't been wiped clean yet, and he was even more angry.
However, all the remaining officers in Tianwu City were here today. He was embarrassed to get angry loudly at his adjutant, so he could only endure it and introduce the topic:
"We have been called together today to discuss the next combat direction and tactical transfer strategy. You also know that the Zerg's pursuit of us humans has reached an extremely vicious level. Although they retreated inexplicably this time, they cannot
Make sure they don’t come back next time. For this reason, we need a new combat strategy to ensure that we can reach the imperial capital Yanjing safely.”
