Chapter 1096: Feeling the Body Being Hollowed Out
Outside the Tianjing-winged ant nest, the number of troops assembled was far more than the dozens of people I had just seen.
As far as the eye can see, the heavens and the earth are all densely packed with soldier ants, the number is more than thousands, and in the rear of the large army, there are some extremely precious siege equipment in the Ant-Man clan, a kind of equipment with huge spikes, aimed at the ant nest from afar, ready to launch a strong attack when the battle is blocked.
The ant nest is waiting for it - in fact, it can't be called a strict formation, because there are only dozens of people, standing in a row at the door, compared with the army opposite, it looks a little shabby.
But no one backed away.
"You are all warriors of the Celestial Crystal Wing Clan!"
Zandu's gaze swept over the warriors beside him, and he shouted with full anger: "Even if we are going to die today, we will die on the battlefield!" ”
"Die on the battlefield!"
"For the glory of the clan!!"
……
The soldiers were full of fighting spirit, and Zandu himself was also excited, and when he turned around, his eyes involuntarily fell to the depths of the ant nest.
Although the Great Elder was captured, the army here would not retreat on its own, and even with the help of that mysterious High Priest, the Celestial Crystal Winged Clan would probably not be able to escape this fate.
Fortunately, the warriors of the clan have followed the patriarch to fight, as long as the flame walker is defeated, the Celestial Crystal Winged Clan will be able to leave the fire, and the clan will not die.
and his wife and children...... Hopefully, they've escaped from the tunnels, and the farther they go, the better......
Thinking like this, Zandu heard the "buzzing" chaos in the army opposite, as if something had changed, Zandu looked up, and couldn't see anything abnormal, and then turned back to find the source of the commotion.
It turned out to be the Great Elder who came out of the ant nest.
At this time, the Great Elder's face was as usual, and he couldn't see anything unusual, and the black-robed High Priest followed behind, waving his hand at Zandu and the others, signaling the magnifying elder to come over.
The soldiers hesitated, and looked at Zandu in unison.
"Release." Without hesitation, Zandu took the lead in getting out of the way, and the other soldiers also got out of the way.
Before leaving, the patriarch specially instructed that if an enemy came to attack, everything should obey the command of the high priest Dane, and not act rashly.
Moreover, although Zandor had never seen the High Priest make a move, the ancestral beasts of the clan were extremely afraid of him, and seeing him was like encountering some natural enemy, the beasts were very sensitive to danger, which made the Ant-Men very awe of Dane.
This time, it was also the High Priest's idea to find a way to let the Great Elder enter the ant nest alone.
Anyway, let's take it one step at a time.
In this way, the Great Elder returned to the army with steady steps, but within a few minutes, the army of soldiers and ants on the opposite side began to slowly retreat, and at the same time, the Great Elder also walked back.
"They withdrew?"
"Really evacuated! Ha ha! ”
"Oh my God, I'm dazzled, what the hell is going on......"
The warriors of the Heavenly Crystal Wing Clan were ecstatic, unable to figure out what was going on, and Zandu was the same, looking at the Great Elder with a normal expression and clear eyes, and there was a question mark in his head.
Under what circumstances, it can't be that the Great Elder suddenly had an epiphany and gave up, right?
"High priest?" Zaando had no choice but to turn to Dane for help.
"It's just a little trick, Captain Zando, come with me."
Dane smiled, beckoned to Zandu, and walked into the ant nest with the Great Elder, but as soon as he entered the room, the Great Elder, who had been doing as usual a second ago, immediately collapsed to the ground, and the whole person pulled out, sweating profusely and quickly soaking his robe.
"I just used a spell to control him and make the army retreat temporarily,"
Dane looked at the Great Elder Ant, who was twisting and rolling on the ground, and explained to Zandu: "Although your Great Elder has not been corrupted, he must have been communicating with that unknown existence spiritually, and every time he has been corroded a little, after so many years, his own will has been very weak. ”
"If it goes on like this, it won't be long before he will be completely controlled, and it just so happens that I took this opportunity to control him with magic, saving him a lot of trouble."
After listening to Dane's explanation, Zandu understood, looked at the painful Great Elder on the ground, and said, "Then this is ......"
Dane smiled horrifiedly: "It's just the after-effects of mind control, and it will be fine after a while." ”
Zandu nodded, looked back at the door, and there was no trace of the army in the shadows, but he knew that the withdrawal was only temporary.
"Follow me." Dann said, then walked straight to the nest, and Zandu hurriedly followed.
The two soon came to the top of the nest, which was the best place to see the whole nest, and the best way to leave the cave and walk up, there were more than a dozen ant-man ladders on the nest, spiraling to the rock wall above, until burrowing into several deep caves.
Dane stood straight, looking up at the empty rock formations above, and then at the flat and wide roof of the ant's nest all around, and fell silent.
Zandu looked puzzled: "High Priest, why do you want to come here?" ”
"Because I set up a circle here,"
Dane said lightly, his eyes fell on Zandu, and he showed that eerie smile again: "Just in case, lest I let you run away." ”
"Huh?"
Zandu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Dane meant, but the high priest had already spoken, so he made a decisive move, and as soon as the staff was raised, the top of the ant nest was immediately enveloped in a vigorous green light.
"Ahh
Zandu, who looked ignorant, suddenly let out a sharp scream, "Bang! The ground fell to the ground with a bang, and the whole person was twisted into an incredible shape, and his hands hammered his head hard, as if it was not his own head, but a sandbag, and the vicious and desperate appearance made people shudder.
"Captain!"
"Stop!"
Seeing this, the two soldiers who followed Zanguo pounced almost at the same time, wanting to help Zandu, but without exception, they all crashed into the protective array, bounced back one after the other, and lay on the ground for a long time without getting up.
Dane's face was expressionless, and at this time, the energy in the circle slowly wrapped Zaando, and the two soldier ants got up again, slashing wildly with weapons outside the shield, and Dane was unmoved.
After a while, a purple phantom appeared silently, floating faintly from Zandu's body, and the naked eye could not see the appearance of the phantom, but the phantom had a head and no feet, and there was a thick tail-like thing floating behind it, not so much a human being as an oversized tadpole.
And the phantom didn't seem to want to float up like this, desperately struggling to drill into Zandu's body, countless filaments under his body connected to Zandu's body, and his head occasionally shattered due to violent movements, such a hideous movement was silent, and it was weird to make people's hearts palpitate.
On the other hand, Zandu seemed to be asleep, motionless, pale, with only occasional frowns, as if he had dreamed of something ominous.
The soldier ants who saw this scene involuntarily stopped their movements, including the other soldier ants who had just rushed over when they heard the sound, they were all dumbfounded, and even the fools could see that there was something wrong with it: what was the thing coming out of the captain's body!?
