Chapter 77: Divine Allies (3)

In front of the Divine Allies warriors was an ant nest they had never seen before.

The surface size of this nest is "huge", of course, this huge is only relative.

For the scythe ant, there are only two types of nests.

One is the unique nest of the hunting sickle ant, as the name suggests, it is located in the tree, using natural tree holes and bark cracks, and tribes in the lowland humid environment especially like to create this kind of nest, although simple, but can effectively prevent floods.

The other is a regular underground nest. It is also an underground nest, and the nest of the hunting sickle ant is very simple because of the small number of ants, not only the scale is not large, and there are often not too many nests, but the rest area is simply demarcated according to the level of the ants, and the grain is piled up in the corner.

The above-ground part of this underground nest is a cone-shaped anthill that resembles a volcanic crater created by the accumulation of muck, and it is also a striking feature for identifying ant nests.

And at this moment, facing the spectacular above-ground part of the outsider's lair, the warriors of the "Holy Ally" were almost dumbfounded.

This outsider's lair was built on a small dirt slope in the valley floor, and the terrain was relatively high, so the location was reasonable.

The entrance to the nest is next to a rock, and above the entrance is a tall ant mound, which is like an extension of the rock, and like a bamboo shoot that has just emerged, wrapping the entire entrance of the nest, leaving only a few entrances and exits in different directions.

This ant mound alone is as tall as a small shrub.

Outside the anthill, there is a fence with obvious unnatural traces, enclosing the anthill and the south side of the rock, and a large number of outsiders are forming a dense formation on this fence and putting on a defensive posture.

And outside the wall, there is also a ring of trenches.

The warriors of the "Holy Allies" had never seen such lair fortifications. In the past, most of their battles have been battles in the wilderness or skirmishes, in addition to taking advantage of the victory to attack the underground lairs of their own clan or the Fallen.

Now that a very different kind of fortification appeared in front of them, they were a little dazed.

However, the warriors who are aggressive by nature are not intimidated by difficulties, and the fact that there are not many defenders in the outsider's lair in sight gives them a lot of confidence.

So, without temptation or command, as the first tribe launched its own assault, all the warriors sprang into action and rushed at the enemy like a torrent.

Our warriors were scattered among themselves when attacking, gathering in tribes and running in a straight line, occasionally jumping over the obstacles in front of them with great bounces, and unstoppably rushing at the fortifications of the outsiders.

Even if I wasn't on the battlefield in person, just the images in the information packet made me feel excited.

The warriors quickly stormed the front of the trench. Due to the fact that the trench was next to the enemy's wall, which was a dense formation of the enemy. Some fighters who try to jump directly often fall into the enemy's encirclement as soon as they land, and they are bitten to death without being able to exert their martial arts.

Their unfortunate fate reminded the latecomers, and the soldiers who charged behind simply gave up their plans to jump over and honestly crawled through the bottom of the trench.

But this decision also came with trouble.

I don't know if it was intentional by the enemy, or because the climate was warm and rainy some time ago, and the valley was extremely humid, and the soil at the bottom of the trench looked very muddy.

Therefore, in the trench, which was not long or wide, the first warriors who rushed down were still struggling in the mud to climb to the other side, while the warriors behind were already rushing in.

All of a sudden, the trench was overcrowded with ants. The fighters were disrupted by each other's movements, and only a few were able to climb out of the trench and attack the wall.

At best, however, the trenches slowed down the warriors, and although outsiders on the walls continued to hurl stones at the trenches below, they did nothing more than damage the warriors' hard carapaces, which were capable of injuring their fragile tentacles and arthropods.

In addition, the outsiders used a special tool to throw small stones and clods at great speed, and this throwing weapon was a threatening weapon that could penetrate the weak points in the gaps in the warriors' carapaces.

But on the whole, the fighters did not suffer much loss in the trenches, and although the speed was slow due to the disturbance, they climbed out one after another.

The warriors then climbed up the wall, which was not high, the height of the warrior's two lengths.

Since the other side of the trench was next to the wall, there was no flat ground and nowhere to exert force, so the warriors could not jump, but could only climb up.

At this time, the enemy's dense formation can be used to exert its power.

Fighters who climb up cannot gain a foothold, and are often pushed down directly. This was not bad, some of the warriors cooperated with each other, barely taking up a small space at the top of the wide wall, only to be immediately met with a frantic counterattack from the enemy.

At this time, I noticed that the outsiders who were guarding here were actually old, weak, sick and disabled, and many of them were missing arms and legs.

But they still joined the attack mercilessly, using their numerical superiority to suppress the few fighters who climbed up.

The two sides continued to tear and see, but our fighters were never able to break through this small wall.

As more and more fighters climbed up, the soldiers in the rear who had not yet entered the trench began to try to jump directly onto the wall, although it was easy to fall into the siege and easy to die, but it did effectively shake the enemy's defense.

Seeing that it worked, more and more fighters cooperated by jumping and climbing, and the enemy's defense line finally faltered.

Other tribes bypassed the frontal battlefield and took a long detour, emerging from the rocks behind the outsider's anthill and attacking the anthill directly.

Although these ant mounds are difficult to enter because of the few and small entrances and exits. But this force that appeared behind enemy lines completely shook the enemy army.

The enemy began to fight and retreat, approaching the anthill, and then retreating into the anthill little by little.

Finally, we completely occupied the ground outside the ant mound, and the walls and trenches were occupied by our warriors, leaving behind the corpses of warriors and outsiders.

It was not yet time to cheer for victory, and the warriors began to attack the anthill again.

But this ant mound gave everyone a headache again.

It stands to reason that in a complex underground lair, it should be a platform for a small number of warriors to wrestle with each other, and it is difficult for outsiders to exert their numerical superiority, and the terrain is favorable to our warriors.

But once inside the anthill, the warriors discover that something is wrong.

At every entrance and exit, after not walking far, an empty nest will appear, where outsiders will set up a semi-circular line, completely blocking the influx of warriors......
