Chapter 1237: Control the Hub
"Boom!"
A fireball exploded, scorching a large area of ants, but the corpses were trampled under the feet of the rest of the ants, and new ants rushed forward one after another.
"Brush!"
A wind blade flew out, crushing a line of ants, but in a few seconds the ants on both sides closed in the middle and returned to normal.
"Woohoo!"
"Boom, boom!"
Richard condensed more than a dozen blood spears and shot them towards the center of the ant colony, quickly exploding, and a large amount of corrosive energy attached to the ants, taking their lives. However, it didn't disrupt the ant formation, just a few breaths, and the gap was filled.
After Richard looked at it, he couldn't help frowning, he noticed that the number of ants was indeed huge, so large that he could use the ant sea tactics to fight them regardless of death. And the other party is not blindly depleting, but using these dead lives extremely efficiently.
For example, in the face of their spell attacks, before the spell hits the surface of the colony, many ants will jump up and trigger the spell in advance. In this way, the leaping ants will die, but they will do less damage to their companions.
It's literally creature grille armor.
As a result, the power of the spell cannot be completely eliminated, but it is reduced a lot. Falling on the rest of the ants, which was expected to cause ten damage, can now cause up to five or even three damage. What's even more amazing is that ants that have been injured and disabled will take the initiative to meet the next spell and die. Once to die is not achieved twice, twice not to achieve three times, until death is rested, maximize the realization of their own value.
For example, in battle, there is not much difference between a soldier being stabbed once and being stabbed twice, and both will lose their combat effectiveness. And now the ant colony is choosing, trying to let each ant stab countless times before dying.
Every individual ant is no longer a simple life, but a tool, a tool for the highest utilization.
Richard kind of understood what it was like to fight an army that Jasmine had said before, this is simply the most terrible army.
"Boom!"
With a wave of his hand, Richard blasted out dozens of blood spears with all his strength, cleaning up a large area of ants that came up, making the offensive slightly sluggish.
But it was only a stagnant, and the follow-up ants did not panic, reorganized the attack, and consciously loosened it, so that the attack effect of the blood spear was weakened.
On the other side, Jasmine and his party also blasted spells, causing a large number of casualties to the ant colony, but under the attack of the ants who attacked in the follow-up, they kept retreating.
"Damn ants!"
The sorceress Su was furious, jumped to her feet, and recited a spell in mid-air, preparing a large spell.
As a result, as soon as she left the ground, she was noticed by ants gathering fire, and thousands of acid clusters flew towards her. The acid mass looks small, but it is extremely corrosive, and the protective energy film on the surface of Su's body cannot be completely defended, and it fluctuates constantly, and it looks like it will burst at any time.
The spell of a spell was not finished, and Su fell to the ground in embarrassment, a little resentful and unwilling, but under the crazy attack of the ant colony, he had to retreat to the back again with the rest of the people.
At this time, the group had retreated to the edge of the gray and white heights, and if they retreated again, they were about to leave the heights.
Jasmine, apparently not wanting to repeat the previous experience, ordered her men to hold on, and while looking at Richard, she shouted, "Do you have a way to fix it?"
Richard listened in thought, squinting at the tide of ants falling into thought.
What Jasmine said before was right, a single ant is not difficult to solve, and the same is true for hundreds or thousands of ants, a spell or several spells can always be cleaned up, but like now, it is terrifying.
The simple quantity is large, and it can be reluctantly accepted. After all, no matter how much there is and no cooperation, it is just a plate of loose sand, which can be ground to death in a few opportunistic ways.
For example, use earth spells to create several narrow passages under the highlands to lure ant colonies in. In this way, on the one hand, it can disperse the opponent's strength, and on the other hand, it can lengthen the opponent's line, so that the opponent cannot exert its full combat effectiveness, and can attack at the end of the passage with great pressure and slowly reduce the number of opponents.
But according to the decisive reaction of the sorceress Su Gang just left the ground just now, he was instantly set on fire by the other party, but I was afraid that the other party would not cooperate at all. If there is really a narrow passage built, it will not enter, but will be bulldozed directly.
This is the army, the real army with brains. It doesn't attack stupidly.,It's going to show all kinds of rational responses according to the environment.,Forever maintain combat effectiveness.。
From this point of view, what is really terrible about the other party is the mind, it is the wisdom.
Only by destroying this wisdom can we destroy the other party.
What is the source of wisdom?
The other party's body is indeed much larger than that of ordinary ants, but the brain capacity cannot guarantee that each individual has similar intelligence.
Even if someone has wisdom, they can't cooperate so tacitly.
According to logic, the other party should have a control hub, maybe more than one, after all, the number of ant colonies is too large.
It is very likely that the other side has a control system from top to bottom, multi-layered and multi-level, so that it can be so flexible to adjust, change, take into account the overall consideration, and launch attacks.
So......
Richard's eyes flashed a faint blue light, and he turned on the perspective function of the Eye of Gaze, and stared sharply at a position below the thick ant colony.
"Brush, brush!"
On the surface of Richard's skin, golden light flashed three times in a row, and a large amount of energy wrapped around his body, opening the "top three" state.
"Smack!"
With a single step, Richard jumped up and crashed into the ant colony, and punched hard, and the golden light on the fist exploded, shattering the bodies of many ants.
A fist-sized purple ant, exposed in a pile of ant corpses. The other party has a strange appearance, the head is huge, occupying half of the body, and the six legs are extremely weak, unable to move on their own, and must be carried by a group of other ants.
After being exposed, the purple ant was slightly flustered, its tentacles shook again and again, and the ants under it seemed to receive a signal and quickly hid it backwards.
Richard naturally wouldn't let the other party succeed, and a four-ring spell-level blood spear blasted out, directly shattering the opponent and destroying the ants within a radius of several meters.
At the moment of elimination, the ants more than ten meters nearby froze together, as if frozen. Soon the ants returned to normal, and Richard, who noticed this scene, smiled when he saw it.
Really...... There is a control hub responsible for command and dispatch inside the ant colony...... Once the control hub is destroyed, it will directly affect the movement of the ant colony...... Of course, there is no harm in destroying one hub, and destroying one will quickly be taken over and replaced by the rest...... But destroying many, or almost all of them, should be irremedy.
Richard's gaze froze, and he turned his head sharply to look at a location in the ant colony twenty meters away.
"Brush!"
On the surface of the skin, the golden light flashes twice in a row, and new energy covers the body, replenishing the destruction of ant acid. Then Richard flew over and landed suddenly, casting a spell to blast away the protective ant, revealing another large purple ant, which was mercilessly killed with a blood spear.
"Boom, boom!"
Next, Richard's eyes flashed with blue light, and he kept scanning the surroundings, constantly naming and destroying the control hub of the ant colony.
