Chapter 92: The Way Back and the Struggle

The protagonist rides "Little Black", soaring in the warm and clean blue sky of spring, looking down at everything below - everything that belongs to him!

Maybe it's all that belongs to him temporarily?

At this moment, countless ants are working on the land, and the abundance of spring and the industriousness of ants shine together. The protagonist just watches it all over and over again.

As a superior person, the protagonist enjoys this feeling of being in sight and having all of me, even if he is constantly afraid that this scene will be like a bubble on the water on a rainy day, which will disappear in an instant.

The protagonist, he is no longer a hairy boy who has just crossed over, at that time, he still naively wanted to give soldier ants and worker ants a higher status, according to the concept of equality of human beings, so that his power can achieve a certain degree of equality.

But the reality is cruel, the inequality of the physiological structure of the ants makes it impossible for them to be equal in status, and even the professional ants are not touched by the preference of the protagonist, and they are not intelligent enough to move themselves.

Now, the protagonist has given up on this idea and is truly governing his country like a male ant ruler.

The rule of the protagonist is still highly dependent on the male ant class, and then restrain the queen ant so that they can only lay eggs in peace, drive the working ants, and do not repeat the queen of ants inheritance faction.

If there is any difference between the system of the Divine Envoy King's Legion and the old Big-Headed Ant Kingdom, it is that the protagonist single-handedly raised the Divine Ant Ant Class, including the Divine Soldier Ant, the Divine Worker Ant, the Great Worker Ant and the Great Soldier Ant.

This is the class that the protagonist trusts, and it is also the weapon that the protagonist uses to contain, supervise, and stimulate the male ants.

The current protagonist is more like a hybrid of both human belly politics and ant domination thinking. This world is irreversibly assimilating a traverser by some means, and the traverser is also sticking to some of the last bottom lines in his heart and making his own counterattack.

- I'm the dividing line -

Inside and outside [Xinyang City], the ants are busy, preparing for the next battle.

But what is surprising is that the so-called aggressive, impatient, and vengeful red fire ants in the tentacles of the "old heart" have not provoked a new war for many days.

After the last wave of Red Fire Ant troops besieging [Xinyang City] returned to their main nest, the place named [Hive City] because of its resemblance to a beehive, there has been no major movement.

Even, when the flying knights went out to investigate, there was no trace of red fire ants on the ground of [Hive City], more burrowing ants foraging on the ground, and a small number of black brown ants, forest ants or belly ants. If you don't know, you really think this is the territory of burrowing ants.

"Old Heart" doesn't know why the red fire ants rarely stand still, and the protagonist is also confused.

In fact, the reason why red fire ants are dormant is very simple - lack of food.

The Red Fire Ant Nation has brought limited gains from conquering the bellied ant clan, and has not been able to control the honeydew resources they want. Even if they later wiped out the three black brown ant tribes under their command, they also did not obtain enough food to go on the expedition.

In the eyes of the red fire ants, the vassal ant clan under their command is like a raised insect, and when they are hungry, they can kill and eat them. But if the insects are generally thin and not full after eating, then keep them for now.

Instead of harming other vassals, the Red Fire Ants gathered their warriors in their nests, where the slaves foraged for food, as most ants do, and hoarded little by little the rations needed for the next war.

In terms of the stability of the food supply, the aggressive red fire ant country is far inferior to the leafcutter ants who know how to grow fungi, and perhaps it is for this reason that they can only see a see-saw situation between them and the leafcutter ants, who are more warlike.

Although the protagonist does not know what kind of difficulties the red fire ants are experiencing, they cannot afford to waste their precious respite.

The ants of [Xinyangcheng] have never been busier than ever, collecting food, forage and everything they can use in the territory, in the ant-free forests in the north, the golden beaches and woods that have lost their owners, the Zhuge vegetable and grass bushes in the northwest, and the reeds in the west.

And the protagonist, while directing production, keeps an eye on the [Hive City] in the north, waiting for the army of red fire ants that will appear sooner or later; On the other side, the Lord is looking in the direction of the Leafcutter Ant Country, hoping for good news.

This year, the Flying Knights of the Divine Angel King's Legion have expanded to 36 horsemen in tightening their belts, which is enough to monitor both the west and north directions at the same time.

In fact, where is just the flying knights, in order to supply the strength of the seven legions, the entire [Xinyang City] is operating at full capacity, such a small territory is simply not enough to supply so many unproductive warriors. That is, now that the red fire ants have not invaded, the Divine Envoy King's legion can operate in a larger area to obtain enough food.

Getting back to business, until March 28, it was five days before the mission departed, and the protagonist had not yet waited for the return of "Little Flower".

Although the Flying Knights had followed the mission before, after entering the forest, leaf-cutting ant warriors could appear on almost every tree and branch.

The discovered Flying Knight was attacked by the Leafcutter Ant, and the Star Bull was summoned. Fortunately, the Flying Knights' mounts were faster and more agile, and they dodged the attack and retreated out of the woods, losing control of the Mission.

So the protagonist doesn't know anything about what happened to the mission later, and can only wait for "Little Flower" to bring back good news.

On the first and second days, the protagonist doesn't have much anxiety knowing that the mission must still be on the way, and maybe hasn't reached its destination yet.

On the third and fourth days, is it time for the mission to return?

On the fifth day, according to the speed of the mission, how can I come back, is it possible that the leafcutter ants will stay with the mission overnight?

The protagonist is a little anxious: maybe the mission has been killed, and the gift he gave has become the enemy's trophy!

As long as the mission does not come back, it will definitely be more than lucky. Although this has been expected for a long time, the protagonist is also ready to sacrifice to the mission and gifts.

But when things may really go in this direction, the protagonist still can't accept it calmly.

He could only wait and inspect the construction site of the walnut ship again and again, and now several walnut ships have been built one after another.

The protagonist has always been under a lot of pressure in his heart, and he knows that the army of the king of the gods is now in a city, and he can't resist the attack of the Red Fire Ant Country.

This time it was not like the time when the Divine Envoy King Legion counterattacked from [Dongyang City] to seize the entire territory of the old Big-headed Ant Kingdom, at that time, it was still the same clan, and the opponent was not monolithic, and after losing the main nest, it fell into a situation of fighting for itself, so that the Divine Envoy King Legion had a chance.

This time, the enemy is monolithic! If there is no external help, no iron ore, maybe when the time comes, the Divine Envoy King Legion can only continue to flee by boat!

The protagonist strokes the sturdy shell of the walnut ship, which is the retreat he leaves, but he is not willing to run away again!
