With the annihilation of the reinforcements, Suzaku also clearly understood that [Purple Leaf Li Cheng] would not be able to escape the ultimate fate.

Although the mysterious ant army temporarily withdrew to the ground, the retreat was very hasty, and it did not even have time to take away a large number of corpses of both sides, which was rare in the past, and it also proved that Suzaku's tenacious defense still brought a lot of trouble to the mysterious ants.

But this retreat is only temporary, the strength of the mysterious ant army is not damaged, and it still firmly controls all the entrances and exits of the ground, and the paving ant defenders can only be trapped in the lonely city, and there is no hope of breaking through.

By the time the mysterious ants had recovered and attacked again, it was obvious that the defenders, who had less than a third of their strength left, would not be able to hold out for more than a day.

With the temporary retreat of the mysterious ants, under the guidance of the scouts, the paving ant warriors carefully re-entered the upper half of the nest and began to tinker and re-consolidate this once-lost position. Even in such a desperate situation, the Paving Ant Warrior did not slack off!

Suzaku's heart was full of peace, he had already anticipated his end—the end that would disappear with this [Purple Leaf Plum City]. He was not afraid at all, death was too common for ants.

To his relief, the defense line he had worked so hard to build could defend against the enemy for about 5-6 days, which had met the expectations of the males of the main nest, and of course, not the Suzaku themselves.

After that, the battle situation will depend on the colleagues of the main nest, and I probably won't be able to see the day of victory.

Suzaku still had one last task left to complete, and he made an information package of the information he had collected in the past few days of defensive battles, especially the information on the enemy's continuous night operations in the [Purple Leaf Li Cheng] defensive battle in the past two days, and handed it to the four messengers.

The four messengers immediately exited the secret passage where they had summoned reinforcements and headed for the main nest - they wanted to pass on the information they had earned at great sacrifice to the main nest and contribute the last ounce of strength to the defense of the main nest.

The army of tens of thousands of mysterious ants had lost only three digits in the previous battles, and their strength was not damaged, and they controlled a large area on the ground. However, the secret exit of [Purple Leaf Li City] was far away from the position of the mysterious ants, and the few lone paving ants did not attract the enemy's pursuit, and these messengers advanced safely to the south.

- I'm the dividing line -

In the afternoon of the same day, the army of mysterious ants, which had been resting for a long time, began to attack again. They split into several strands and went underground from the surface passage again.

The defenders, who were already seriously underarmed, abandoned the defense of the mouth of the nest on the first line, retreated directly to the interior of the upper half of the nest, and then continued to send small detachments to sneak attack around the rear.

When the density of the mysterious ants was not large at the beginning, this tactic of the defenders once again achieved certain results. However, as the mysterious ant warriors gathered more and more, the losses of the paving ant team skyrocketed, and finally they had to give up this tactic.

The pressure on the defense of the upper half of the nest became more and more intense, and after only holding out for an hour or two, Suzaku had to give the order to abandon the upper half of the nest again.

After all, the first half of the nest had fallen once before, and many of the very narrow passages that had been specially renovated had been widened by the mysterious ants, and a short recovery was not enough for the defenders to renovate their positions again.

In contrast, the defense of the lower half of the nest is more complete, and in the case of only hard encounters, the narrow terrain is the only thing the defenders can rely on.

- I'm the dividing line -

A dark, narrow passage underground, the walls of which have been smeared with a mixture of ant saliva, feces, and dirt, leaving only a small opening that will hold two paver ants at the same time.

This is a defensive position in the lower half of the nest of [Purple Leaf Li City], it is an intersection, there are three passages leading to various places after the narrow passage, once it is broken through by the enemy, the enemy can take advantage of the situation to occupy a small nest, so there is a cannon fodder squad stationed behind. The defenders were not commanded by male ants, only some old and weak paving ants and worker ants were stationed.

The fluorescent bacteria on the walls emitted a faint light, and the illuminated passage was dark and terrifying.

Even more terrifying was the grinding sound of the arthropods sweeping across the ground from near and far, the sound of the enemy approaching.

The connecting passage between the upper and lower half of the nest has been lost in many places, and this traffic node located in the second line is about to become a first-line battlefield. Although there was no messenger to tell these cannon fodder paving ants the specific battle situation, judging from the fact that the sound of the battle was getting closer and closer, the paving ants already knew something.

There are no paving ant warriors retreating, they are the most valiant warriors, fearing their enemies, even those who cannot be defeated.

Finally, the footsteps stopped on the opposite side of the narrow opening, close enough for the stationed paving ant warriors to see a huge swarthy carapace head through the opening.

The enemy is coming!!

The giant mysterious ant tried to poke its head through the narrow opening, and its tentacles reached in first, measuring the width of the opening.

The two paver ant warriors in the back immediately rushed up, trying to bite the tentacles, which are definitely the common vulnerable parts of ants.

The idea of the paving ant warrior was not wrong, but the mysterious ant didn't care that the tentacles were bitten, and with a strong flick, it threw the two paving ant warriors who were not able to measure their strength into the air. If more paver ants besiege its tentacles, maybe it will also be afraid of injury, and just two ants will not make it fearful.

The mysterious ant unhurriedly examined the narrow passage and made sure that his head and body could not get through.

Then, it began to open its jaws and gnaw hard at the "ant concrete" on the four walls of the passage. The originally solid ant concrete was bitten open little by little under the huge and powerful jaws of the mysterious ants, like a person gnawing on sugar cane.

The stationed paving ant warriors naturally can't let the other party destroy important positions, but the mysterious ants are on the other side of the mouth, and the defenders are helpless.

Without the command of the male ant, the paving ant warrior can only figure out his own way. Several heroic paving ant warriors immediately burrowed into the hole, intending to attack the enemy who had destroyed the fortifications.

But they had no chance of winning in the face of the mysterious ants, the mysterious ants gave up the destruction for the time being, and the paving ant warriors who had nowhere to dodge in the narrow terrain were killed by the mysterious ants one by one, and the sharp jaws quickly harvested the lives of several paving ant warriors.

These paving ant warriors paid the price of their lives, but they only delayed the mysterious ants for a few seconds.

As the fortifications were finally destroyed, several mysterious ants passed through one after another, and rushed into the remaining defenders with their black scythe-like jaws open, and a feast of death came!

This scene played out all over [Purple Leaf Plum City], and the desperate defenders could only survive on the fortifications, waiting for the final death to come.

Whether it is a worker ant, a queen ant or a male ant, they will not escape, and the end of [Purple Leaf Li City] has come!
