Chapter 293: Parasitic Reappearance

What happened inside the Paving Ant Barbarian Country, the protagonist is still confused.

The intelligence inside the Paving Ant Barbarian Country is basically in a state of black fog for the protagonist, just like playing a real-time strategy game without opening the full map. Due to the huge difference in appearance and smell between the different ant races, he can't even send spies to spy on the inside story - although the protagonist also has paver ants such as the Floating Leaf King under his command, the protagonist does not think that these paving ants with the scent of the Divine Angel King's Legion can mix with their kind.

The only thing the protagonist can rely on is the information obtained from last year's reconnaissance operation in the north, as well as the outdated information provided by the Floating Leaf King, knowing that the Paving Ant Barbarian has a strong enemy in the north.

Maybe they were in big trouble in the north and had to mobilize the strength of the whole country and evacuate all the troops, including the southern nest, which made it cheaper for the northern expeditionary force of the big-headed ant kingdom that changed targets.

In the next few days, the flying knight of the locust and jackal sent back more information: not only was the Northern Expeditionary Army attacking, but the black-headed sour ants and the Japanese black-brown ant tribe on the eastern border of the Paving Ant Barbarian Country were also taking advantage of the fire to rob and were rarely besieging the sub-nest of the Paving Ant Barbarian on the border.

In the past, these tribes could only plunder and retreat to the woods to the east, and it was really not their strong point to attack cities and plunder land, and only when the paving ants were weak enough to stimulate the greed of these indigenous tribes.

From the aggressive invasion of the south crossing more than a year ago, to the embattled now, the originally powerful paving ants seem to be in huge trouble.

The situation on the north bank of the Great River is still a little far away for the protagonist, and he must integrate the resources and forces on the south bank of the Great River as soon as possible to get a piece of the pie.

Recently, the relationship between the Divine Envoy King's Legion and the Queen Ant Inheritance faction has become increasingly tense, and the two sides have frequently clashed over the swinging side nests between the two sides in their actual control.

In general, with the exception of extreme King's Council faction supporters, neutral Vice-Hive ruling males are more willing to go to the Queen Ant Inheritance faction that conforms to ancient traditions, rather than to the Evil Divine Envoy King and his minions whose image has been "blackened".

However, the Divine Envoy King's legion is stronger in combat, and has been unusually active in attacking everywhere recently, and under the real threat, many of the ruling males of the neutral sub-nest will not consider defecting to the Divine Envoy King when the soldiers are approaching the city, and join the titular new "King Council" to obtain the title of Great King.

It is not uncommon for the Legion of the Divine Envoy and the Legacy of the Ant Queens faction to arrive at a certain side nest at the same time, and some conflicts have erupted. The ending is basically that the army of the gods drove the opponent away.

This is due to the fact that the Divine Envoy King Legion has been ordered by the protagonist to dare to attack the Queen Ant Inheritance faction army without any scruples. And the Queen Ant Inheritance faction still seems to have scruples and does not dare to tear their faces.

But obviously, the patience of the top leaders of the Queen Ant Legacy faction is also limited, and there have been no messengers from the "real main nest" of the Queen Ant Legacy faction recently, and the two sides are actually in a state of "severing diplomatic relations", and they are separated from the declaration of war by a layer of window paper that can be broken by a poke.

The protagonist is not too worried, he has twelve legions in his hands, and his strength has increased greatly. In addition to the two legions stationed in "Qingqiu City", there are also a few garrison legions that do not move, and the mobile strength of ten legions is enough to sweep across the south bank of the river.

These mobile forces are currently splitting up to sweep or force land on the sidelines of neutral wait-and-see. The newly formed corps has quickly become familiar with the formations and tactics in frequent battles, and has grown rapidly.

Among the neutral sub-nests everywhere, those who firmly resisted the minions of the Divine Envoy King have been exposed and suppressed in the rebellion of the old-fashioned king and the rebellion of the Western Alliance, and most of the rest are hesitants and wall-riding factions, and the will to resist is not resolute.

The protagonist suffers from the fact that there are too few male ants under his command who can engage in administrative work, and even if he accelerates the training of new male ants this year, it is still difficult to fill the gap.

The direct male ants loyal to the king of the divine envoy are sent to those important sub-nests with many ant populations and rich resources, and the other sub-nests that are ambushed, the protagonist can only temporarily entrust the local surrendered ruling male ants to continue to manage, and for the sake of the envelope, they are all given the title of king.

However, the case of the big banyan is first, and it is impossible for the protagonist to trust these "old ants" of the big-headed ant kingdom unreservedly. It's just expediency!

- I'm the dividing line -

At a critical moment when the ten legions were in full swing to raid various places, and the relationship with the Queen Ant's Legacy faction was becoming increasingly tense, Ramboto's Fourth Legion sent back a messenger to convey an unexpected situation.

When the Fourth Legion was raiding the neutral secondary nest, they found a secondary nest infected by parasitic ants!!

The protagonist is startled, and after reading the information packet, he hurriedly rides the "Xiaoqing II" and sets off, rushing to this secondary nest that is only a little more than a day's way away from the main nest "Qingqiu City".

This secondary nest is located in a low-lying area full of waterholes and shrubs, not far from the main nest, but far from the main antway and not particularly rich in resources. In addition, there are frequent floods here, so the size of the secondary nest is not large.

In the protagonist's intelligence, this secondary nest is no more than a thousand ant mouths, and it is an insignificant marginal secondary nest. In the previous civil strife in the kingdom of Big-Headed Ants, this sub-nest did not join the hostile forces, but it also did not show deference, almost making the protagonist forget.

It was at this stage that the protagonist let the ten mobile legions split up to sweep the situation, and only then did he find out the situation of this abnormal side nest.

Xiaoqing II quickly flew to the destination with the protagonist on board.

The secondary nest is located on a small high bottom in the depression, backed by a willow tree. It is surrounded by waterholes and vegetation, and there are many mosquitoes.

The protagonist pilots Xiaoqing II, carefully avoiding the many gnats and dragonflies that accumulate in the shade, and lands on a bush without danger.

And under the bushes, Lambotu has been waiting for a long time.

Seeing the protagonist coming, Rambotu hurriedly greeted him.

The protagonist has seen the results of the Rambo Legion's reconnaissance in the messenger's packet:

The Lamberto Legion was ready to attack the nest, but the two captives that the Scythe Scout had captured as was customary, and were going to be tortured by Rambo himself, startled Lambot.

One captive was normal except for the loss of half of his leg, and the injuries were probably due to resistance.

But the other captive was not only unusually manic, but even the ants controlling him had the scent of the same race, which could not make it settle down a bit. And the mycelium that was emerging in the crevices of the carapace on its back made Lambotu feel very familiar to Lambotu who had fought with parasitic ants.

These are the hyphae of parasitic bacteria!

After some inspection, Rambo Tou hurriedly ordered the infected person to be executed, pulled out the parasitic mycelium to dry and chop it, and then hurriedly notified the protagonist!
