The protagonist is alerted after an attack on a fortress.

At that time, this fortress, which was mainly stationed with veterans who had been wounded and disabled in previous wars, was able to thwart the enemy's initial large-scale attack with its full defenses.

The flying knights on air patrol noticed the anomaly in the fortress and immediately reported it to the "Southern City".

At this time, the protagonist, who was sitting in the "Southern City", immediately sent the Third Army at hand to rush to support.

Reinforcements quickly repelled the attackers of the indigenous Hunter Ant Tribe, killing hundreds of enemies.

After identifying and identifying them after the battle, the protagonist concludes that the indigenous tribes have organized an unprecedentedly large combined force, and that the slain natives are clearly from many different tribes.

The protagonist immediately realizes the danger, after all, it is impossible for himself and the main army to stay in the "Southern City" for a long time, and if the combined indigenous army attacks in the absence of the main force of the Divine Envoy King's army, the "Southern City" and its nearby territories will be difficult to deal with.

The resistance must be crushed now, and quickly.

The protagonist knows that the battlefield on the north bank of the Great River has changed as expected, and he will soon need to go north, leaving him with little time left in the south.

So the flying knights went out in large numbers, and soon found the assembly place of the coalition of the indigenous scythe hunting ant tribe - from the air, the dense piles of hunting sickle ants were too obvious.

After supporting the defenders of the fortress, the Third Legion, following the guidance of the Flying Knights, launched a tentative offensive against this indigenous coalition army, and found that the fighting spirit and combat power of the indigenous coalition army were quite high, although both sides suffered losses in the fierce battle, but the enemy had no intention of retreating.

The Third Legion is temporarily withdrawn, and the protagonist begins to gather all three legions in the fortress, and begins to gather supplies and prepare for the decisive battle.

The Flying Knights began to regularly scout the enemy's assembly site, but this time the reconnaissance actually lost a Flying Knight, which was unexpected by the protagonist.

The decisive battle soon began, and not only was the indigenous scythe-hunting and ant coalition in a hurry for the decisive battle due to food problems, but the protagonist also lacked time due to the need to go north.

In the decisive battle, the invincible Divine Envoy King Legion did run into some trouble.

Although the left and right flanks quickly advanced with the superiority of their forces, they almost crushed the enemy on the opposite side.

However, the concentrated assault of some tall native hunting sickle ants in the middle lane almost broke through the defense line of the Divine Envoy King Legion in the middle lane.

This was not only due to the strength of the enemy, but also because the Divine Envoy King's legion in the middle was actually divided into two parts, the second and third legions, and the enemy's assault route was located at the weak point at the junction of the two legions.

Fortunately, the last line of defense temporarily held off the enemy and bought time for reinforcements.

The 1st Corps of the General Reserve, which was placed in the rear, marched into the battlefield and completely routed the enemy's counterattack.

Subsequently, throughout the battlefield, the Divine Envoy King's legions launched a counterattack, and the enemy had already begun to retreat.

In the next few days, under the guidance of the flying knights, the Divine Envoy King's legion pursued and fought fiercely along the valley, not only eliminating a large number of scattered indigenous sickle hunter warriors, but also uprooting the camps of dozens of indigenous scythe hunting ant tribes along the way, and capturing a large number of ant eggs, larvae and ant pupa.

The protagonist even captures several queens.

However, the protagonist's attempt to ambush the scythe-hunting ants and queens in the same way as the Black Pearl fails. These queens, who can fight in peacetime, resist very resolutely, and were captured only after being wounded. But they refused to surrender and showed great aggression.

The protagonist has no choice but to kill most of the queens, leaving the only queen ant, amputating all her limbs and antennae, blinding her eyes, and imprisoning her in the deepest cell of "South City".

She is fed every day by the worker ants to make sure she doesn't starve to death, and these worker ants also bring hormones that stimulate egg laying to smear on her, and then take the eggs laid away.

In this way, the protagonist treats the queen ant as a living egg-laying machine. Once new female and male eggs are bred, the queen's mission and life will come to an end.

Although the clean-up work is going well, the protagonist knows that this time he has not completely crushed the resistance of the indigenous sickle-hunting ant tribe in the southern hilly area.

According to the "confessions" of the captured fighters who were severely wounded, the protagonist has now cultivated a group of ants with a specialty in "torture", who will cut off the limbs of the enemies who have been forced to confess, even the large jaws, and sometimes even the abdomen of the subject.

The purpose of the torturers is to make the other party collapse in pain, and then read the information in the mind of the enemy who has no mental defense.

According to the information obtained, there are more than 300 indigenous tribes that have united against the protagonist and rebelled against the Divine Envoy King's legion this time, and most of them are not nearby, and some are even far away, even in the depths of the hills that most of the Scythe Hunter Ant Warriors have only heard of.

It seems that it is unrealistic to completely wipe out all these tribes, and the protagonist decides to change his recent battle plan and go all out to intercept the sickle warriors who are retreating from the battlefield and trying to return to their tribes.

As long as these most combat-ready warriors are lost, those tribes that have rebelled against the protagonist will have a hard time recovering within a year or two, and it will be difficult for them to pose a threat to the "Southern City" again, and may even be defeated in the battle for territory with their neighbors.

This plan was carried out to the letter, and the Divine King's army once again searched back and forth in the valley that had been swept away, and sure enough, many of the fish that had slipped through the net before were eliminated.

In addition, the Flying Knights have made some discoveries - they have found some signs of small gatherings of scythe ants.

Although these scythe ants have strong anti-reconnaissance experience and know how to hide from the air under the cover of vegetation, the flying knights still noticed this small group during their constant patrols.

They hid in a small hill, successfully avoiding several encirclements by the Divine Envoy King's legions, which focused on searching the valley.

This small group often moves quickly from one hill to another at dawn or when it is almost dark. At this time, the ground forces of the Divine Envoy King's Legion had either not yet set off or had already returned to the nest, and even if the Flying Knights found their traces, they would not be able to guide the ground forces to destroy them.

The small group seemed to be showing signs of growing, and it was supposed to be a few scattered sickle hunters who were constantly joining, and now there were fifty or sixty of them.

In the past two days, they have become more and more emboldened, and they have begun to fight guerrillas, attacking a small group of soldiers of the Divine Envoy King Legion from time to time.

The protagonist decides that he must destroy this small group of enemies.
