In the middle of the old territory of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom, there is a huge rocky beach.

It used to be a dry riverbed and lake, and the little water eventually dried up under long-term geological and climatic changes, but the large amount of sand and pebbles that remained remains as evidence of the past.

Due to the shallow soil layer and sparse vegetation, the products are not abundant, and it is also one of the most barren areas in the country of the big-headed ant king, and the secondary nests here generally have fewer ant populations.

As the saying goes, "Poor mountains and bad waters make out the people", although it is barren, the inhabitants are unusually aggressive, even the ruling male ants are unusually conservative, and they are staunch supporters of the old king's meeting.

Not long ago, several of the sub-nests in this area joined the protagonist's so-called "Western Alliance", constantly harassing the more fertile territory of the Divine Envoy King's Legion to the east.

But now, these side nests have been retaliated against.

The Divine Envoy King's legion from the east was aggressive, attacking the city all the way, and quickly occupied several lairs while the defenses of the "Western Alliance" were empty.

In the west, the main force of the "Western Alliance" is also almost wiped out after a series of battles with those heretics who believe in the "Queen Ant Inheritance", and the Queen Ant Inheritance faction army is also invading from west to east.

Even if the belief of the ruling males of the various sub-nests of the "Western Alliance" is extremely firm and they are still using all resources to resolutely resist, the barren territory, the lack of ant populations and troops, and the grim situation have determined that it is only a matter of time before the "Western Alliance" is completely destroyed.

Now, on the gravel ground that covers the equivalent of several human units, there are only two real chess players: the Legion of the Divine Envoy and the Legacy of the Queen Ant, and the "Western Alliance" is on the verge of obsolescence.

The Legion of the Divine Envoy King and the Queen Ant Inheritance faction are currently allies that have not been broken on the surface, but secretly they have regarded each other as enemies.

The Queen Ant Inheritance faction is steadily occupying from west to east, while the Divine Messenger King Legion, under the order of the protagonist, preemptively occupies important places and builds a blockade line in advance to block the expansion of the Queen Ant Inheritance faction.

This tactic was also carried out in other parts of the kingdom, such as in the south, where the Divine Envoy King Legion occupied the "New Salt City" and other places in advance, forming a strong line of defense to curb the expansion of the Queen Ant's Inheritance faction to the southeast of the kingdom.

Along the river, the Legion of the Divine Envoy King also took over key communications, forcing the Queen Legacy faction to abandon its attempt to occupy the region along the rich river.

Now, the Divine Envoy King's Legion still intends to repeat its old tricks and control more of the barren but strategically important area in the middle of the kingdom, so as to build a suitable forward base for future wars.

This gravelly area is too vast, with sparse vegetation, flat terrain, and criss-crossing ant roads, and there is no important transportation point to occupy and control the whole situation.

The Divine Envoy King Legion and the Queen Ant Legacy faction can only compete with each other for time, and whoever arrives, attacks, and occupies a secondary nest first will be able to control the nest and a small area around it.

Sometimes, the newly controlled territories of the two sides are intertwined, you have me, and I have you.

Sometimes, the two sides will arrive at a secondary nest almost at the same time, and at this time, the Divine Envoy King's legion will always oppress and even carry out low-intensity attacks, forcing the army of the Queen Ant's Legacy faction to retreat.

From time to time, there are some small conflicts between the two sides, and it is precisely these conflicts that continue to accumulate contradictions between the top leaders of the two sides.

- I'm the dividing line -

Under a large pebble the size of a soccer ball in the human world, three squads of Divine Angel King warriors are resting.

These Divine Emissary warriors belonged to the 11th Legion of the Manticore, which had only recently been formed, and only a few veterans had been transferred from other legions, most of whom were new recruits.

However, since its formation, the combat mission of this corps has never stopped, and it has grown rapidly in continuous actual combat.

There were three legions responsible for attacking the territory of the "Western Alliance", in addition to the 11th legion, the 3rd legion of Rambovan and the 10th legion of the cattle. Due to the large number of target sub-nests, and the lack of troops in most of these sub-nests, the three god envoy king's legions divided into several small forces to attack separately.

These three squads were the vanguard of one of the small units, and the main force of seven squads behind them was about an hour or so away.

Since the Scythe Hunter Scout Team is not yet fully equipped, these three teams have to take on the dual task of scouts and strikers.

According to intelligence, their target was a secondary nest not far ahead, which was part of the "Western Alliance".

There are only more than a thousand sub-nest ants in this place, and it is obviously powerless to stop the ten squads of the Divine Envoy King warriors.

With the introduction of the Scythe Ant Scout, the average Big-Headed Ant Soldier Ant Warrior rarely takes on scout tasks, and this is also the case in new legions like the 11th Legion, which lacks Scythe Ants.

The strikers of the three squads did not cast a certain number of fighters through the reconnaissance net, but held together. This was also due to the commander's underestimation of the enemy, and the three squads were dominated by one of the oldest squad commanders, who gave the order to advance in groups.

Not long ago, some soldier ants of the same clan who probed their brains appeared around the forward troops, and they were far away, and they left immediately after seeing the warriors of the Divine Envoy King.

The Divine Envoy King warriors have no contact with them, and it is unknown whether they belong to the "Western Alliance" or the "Queen Ant Inheritance faction".

Generally speaking, the Big-headed Ant Warrior as a scout will not be so obscene and leave immediately after a simple look at the periphery, they often have to venture closer and see more clearly before leaving, and sometimes take the initiative to attack a few lone enemies.

The actions of these strangely behaved big-headed ant scouts did not attract the attention of the Divine Envoy King Squad Commander.

Three squads rested in the shade of the cobblestones. Although ants like sunlight and the warmth that comes with sunlight, they have been marching in the sun for a long time before, and they have consumed a lot of water in their bodies.

There was no water nearby, so the ants drank the dew in the morning. Before conquering the secondary nest to obtain its water supply, the commanders must ensure that their soldiers do not become dehydrated.

Therefore, when the sun is at its strongest at noon, the ants can only hide in the shade for a short rest, and wait for the weather to be a little cooler before setting off.

- I'm the dividing line -

Fortunately, these Divine Envoy King teams still spread a cordon around them according to the usual practice, otherwise their fate might have been worse.

The vigilant god envoy Wang Warrior suddenly sent back the news that a large group of big-headed ants had been found nearby.

Some of the Divine Envoy King warriors tried to find out the identity of the other party, but they were immediately attacked, and the rest of the warriors hurried back to report the news.

The squad commander climbed onto the cobblestone to inspect and quickly determined that they had been attacked on a massive scale!
