Chapter 176: Post-War Arrangements

It's not the first time that the protagonist has fallen into a coma after using "Heavenly God Descends to Earth", so the entire Divine Envoy King Legion did not panic, but dealt with the aftermath step by step.

Mulan commands several warriors to carefully carry the protagonist back to the break room inside the fortress.

As the highest-ranking king under the protagonist, Roll automatically gained the power to control the entire army, and he commanded the legions to continue to clear the remaining enemies, and then clean up the battlefield and repair the damaged defenses.

Since there were still remnants of the enemy resisting inside the fortress, Roll did not risk sending troops to pursue the fleeing Le Jin Worker Ant and the last parasitic ant legion. But then again, the Divine Envoy King's legion itself is no longer capable of fighting another pursuit battle.

- I'm the dividing line -

The protagonist only wakes up in the middle of the night, and Mulan is always by his side.

When the protagonist wakes up, he is extremely thirsty, and the worker ant who is in charge of serving next to him immediately brings a small clay pot with several drops of fresh honeydew inside.

The protagonist drinks all these sweet honeydew in one gulp, and only then does he suppress the burning hunger and thirst in his abdomen.

The workers had arrived overnight from the transit station as planned, arriving about an hour earlier with supplies and replenishment. Mulan immediately grabs the errand from among them and asks the two worker ants to help take care of the protagonist.

As for the honeydew, it was also picked up by the worker ants in the dark from the scale insects not far away. Due to physiological reasons, these scale insects are reluctant to secrete honeydew at night, and finally four scale insects were stung by worker ants and were tortured to death, so they took the honeydew from such a small clay pot.

The protagonist doesn't know the twists and turns behind the honeydew. After recovering a little, he called the commanders such as Rolling and Rambofo and the ten flying knights to listen to their reports on the results of the battle in person.

Roll is responsible for reporting:

During the daytime fortress defense battle, the Divine Envoy King's legion killed a total of two pale gold workers; killed two parasitic dung beetles and chased one away; Seven parasitic ant legions, about 10,000 parasitic ant warriors and hundreds of thousands of silk parasitic bacteria were completely wiped out.

Overall, the results were very impressive, and if the Parasitic Nest had no other unsent legions, its main legion would have been almost wiped out.

However, in the end, the six pale gold workers were also released, and if they did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, the parasitic ant nest should soon be able to piece together the strength of the six legions, although the new legions would not be as strong as the main legions before they were run-in.

As for the messy and unnecessary soldier ants that are not commanded by the light gold worker ants, even if there are more of them, they will not pose a great threat.

Although the Divine Envoy King's legion won, the losses were extremely heavy, and they had already lost nearly half of their combat effectiveness.

Among the 90 squads of the three legions, there were originally 72 melee squads and 18 ranged squads, and only 57 melee squads and 14 ranged squads remained established after the war, and as many as 19 squads were wiped out including the commander, of which the first legion suffered the greatest losses, and 10 squads completely disappeared. Even the protagonist's Praetorian Guard team was almost wiped out, and only one survived, Mulan.

The other squads also suffered more or less casualties, and the three legions had a total of 4,644 soldiers before the war, including 90 male ants and 4,554 soldier ants, and after the battle, only 71 male ants and 2,711 soldier ants remained.

There were more than 100 wounded among the soldiers, all of whom were basically unable to set foot on the battlefield again due to physical disabilities, and more than 300 lightly wounded who could not participate in the battle in a short time.

The ten flying knights performed very well, not only rescuing the protagonist and completely cutting off the communication channel between the enemy commander and the troops, but also did not lose any of their own, but their spears were basically scrapped.

The defenses of the Stump Fortress were also badly damaged, especially the second wall, which had a huge gap and was still being repaired.

The good news is that the troops that arrived to support from "Dongyang City" and other places according to the predetermined plan included 500 worker ants, 200 soldier ants, and a batch of weapons and supplies.

The protagonist thinks about it, first replenishes all the 200 soldier ant warriors to the most severely damaged 1st Legion, and then arranges for the light and serious wounded to be sent back to recuperate.

The protagonist then orders a commendation for the entire army, which makes the ants cheer.

The commendation consists of two parts, one of which is to reward the whole army, which will provide additional honeydew for all officers and soldiers of the army. However, given that there is no inventory of honeydew in the Stump Fortress, this reward will not be honored until the class returns to the city or completely controls the nearby scale insect resources.

The second commendation was given to the male commander who excelled in daytime combat.

With the exception of a few kings such as Roll, none of the other kings had names, although they did not need names to distinguish each other in their daily communication. However, after learning by chance that the protagonist has given a name to the king of Roll, all the kings regard the name as a gift from the gods, and are very keen to receive this honor.

Of course, the protagonist is embarrassed to tell them the literal meaning of roll and Rambovan, so he can only explain the meaning of the name to them perfunctorily.

This time, the names were given to a Flying Knight, as well as three kings recommended by each of the three legions.

Of course, the protagonist of this name can't be named randomly, at least the person who receives the name must feel that the name has a beautiful meaning.

So, the protagonist names the flying knight who saved him "Flyhawk", and the nine recommended squad commanders "Mantis Tiger", "Dung Rhino", "Spade Elephant", "Armored Ox", "Manticore", "Spider Wolf", "Centiped", "Leopard", and "Locust Jackal".

Well, his naming technique is still not much improved, that is, the first word takes a fierce insect, and the latter word takes a fierce animal, and it is just added together.

On the one hand, it was the name given by the king of God, and on the other hand, they understood the name as dragonfly, praying mantis, dung beetle, spade armor, foot armor, scorpion, spider, centipede, mantis, locust, and other fierce insects, and felt that it was a compliment to themselves.

After all, the honor of giving names cannot be given to all kings, and the protagonist really can't think of so many names, so he encourages other kings who have not yet been given names to work harder, and of course, there must be some luck.

After the name is given, the protagonist asks the Flyhawk to return to "Dongyang City" and conveys instructions to Lan Bofei who stays behind, asking him to organize a thousand soldiers and ants to set off overnight and rush to the stump fortress to replenish the various corps.

Unexpectedly, the Eagle immediately refused this order, believing that he was now a king who had been given a name, and that he could not do the menial work of a messenger. This leaves the protagonist speechless, and he still underestimates the ant's sense of hierarchy and honor.

The other Flying Knights are also reluctant to make cameo roles as heralds during non-combat periods, and in the end, the protagonist has no choice but to let a worker ant pass the order and let the Flying Knight be responsible for carrying her back to "Dongyang City".

After this short episode, the protagonist has one more important thing to do.

That is, to continue to attack the parasitic ant nest overnight, and constantly weaken the enemy's war potential.
