Chapter 244: The Old-fashioned King (4)
Just as the old-fashioned king and the newly formed alliance members were gathering strength and waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, two messengers from the main nest suddenly came to the "hunting ground city".
When he heard the news, the old-fashioned king was taken aback, and he intuitively thought that the king had discovered him. But when I think about it, I don't think it's right.
In fact, the two messengers were ordered by the protagonist to come to the "Hunting Ground City" and ask the males of the secondary nest to obey the new king's council. They arrived several hours apart.
The old-fashioned king, who received the news, immediately took control of the two messengers, and then interrogated them in detail about the current situation of the main nest "Qingqiu City".
Since the defeat of the last battle on the outskirts of "Qingqiu City", the old-fashioned king fled in a hurry and never returned to the main nest, and the news about the main nest came from the communication of the secondary nest along the way, and there was a lack of first-hand information.
This time, there were finally ants from the main nest, and the old-fashioned king immediately interrogated them personally.
The two messenger ants 1510 brought together everything that happened in "Qingqiu City" after the Divine Envoy King occupied the main nest. After all, the protagonist didn't order him to keep it a secret.
Although I had learned from the other sub-nests that the Divine Envoy King was cruel to the males of the Great King's Conference after occupying the main nest, this time I directly learned that the cruel and evil Divine Envoy King had brutally executed and imprisoned the Great King and many other kings who originally belonged to the Great King's Conference, and his behavior still made the Old-fashioned King's body tremble with anger.
When the messenger departs, the protagonist has not yet agreed with the two northern expeditionary forces to exchange the male ant and the banyan, a gesture of kindness that the old-fashioned king is completely unaware of.
After learning the "latest" information about the main nest, the Old-fashioned King gathered all the ants gathered in the "Hunting Ground City" and shared the information with them.
The perverse behavior of the king and the cruelty to the ants angered all the ants, who empathized with the plight of their fellow workers and unanimously denounced the evil deeds of the king. After this incident, the determination of the new anti-protagonist coalition was further strengthened.
The Old King then ordered the two messengers to be kept and assigned to work in the marginal secondary nest, forbidding them to return to the main nest.
The reason for this order was given by the old-fashioned king out of the need for secrecy and accumulation of strength. He thought that as long as the messenger didn't return, the Divine Envoy King wouldn't know the information on the Hunting Ground City. After all, the messenger is a worker ant, and it is impossible to keep any secrets in front of the male.
Previously, the old-fashioned king had taken a worker ant from "Qingqiu City" and "Linshui City" successively, effectively avoiding the leakage of the news of his survival, and now he wants to repeat the old trick.
Although he doesn't quite understand why the protagonist sends two messengers to convey the same message, he can also sense in his confusion that the protagonist is afraid that one courier will not be able to complete the mission.
However, even if the two worker ant messengers disappear together and do not return, I believe that the stupid Divine Messenger King will not be too suspicious. The old-fashioned king got into it with his own thinking, and he didn't care how many worker ants disappeared, but he didn't know that the protagonist was different......
It took a day for the Old-fashioned King to learn that the seventeen secondary nests under the control of the alliance he had formed had been visited by messengers from the main nest. He had no better choice but to keep the messengers under control and let them work in the Far Nest.
A total of thirty-four ants disappeared together, and now even the old-fashioned king felt that the cunning divine envoy king must be suspicious.
He had to take a countermeasure.
Fortunately, the old-fashioned king also knows that even if so many messengers disappear at the same time, it is impossible for the protagonist to guess what happened here. In the next step, the Divine Envoy King will definitely continue to send his minions to this side to spy on intelligence, and to enter the area controlled by the Anti-Divine Envoy King Alliance, "Hunting Ground City" is the only way to go.
The Old-fashioned King immediately ordered the males to take turns patrolling the perimeter of the Hunting Ground City with their newly formed troops, catching any ants of the same clan that had the scent of the main nest or the Legion of the Divine King.
As long as you don't let the evil Divine Envoy King know what is really going on here, you can delay the actions of the evil and powerful Divine Envoy King's minions and buy more time for your own side!
However, the Old-fashioned King still planned and acted in traditional thinking, and it was not until the harsh and dense buzz hovered over the "Hunting Ground City" that the Old-fashioned King remembered his helplessness against the fly-ridden Divine Envoy King's minions on the battlefield, and realized what he had missed.
However, in the face of reconnaissance from the air, the old-fashioned king was at a loss, and the other males around him didn't even know how these buzzing sounds were different from the sounds of flying insects on weekdays, let alone count on them.
After the Old-fashioned King told them about the Flying Knights of the Divine Messenger King's Legion, the males were at a loss, and they didn't even have time to get the troops who were hunting on the ground back to the ground, and the Flying Knights went away with the "buzzing" noise.
The Old-fashioned King didn't know what was going on with the Divine Envoy King's minions, but he felt that he had been exposed and that something had to be done!
- I'm the dividing line -
The locust jackal of the nine generals of the Flying Knight who commanded the reconnaissance operation that day was the one of the nine generals of the Flying Knight, and he took five subordinates to set off from the "Waterfront City" and made a brief tour of the seventeen target sub-nests before returning.
At first, the Jackal reported to the Flyhawk and Lamb Fei that he had found nothing unusual.
Because before, Rambo Fei and other male ants guessed that the missing secondary nests had been attacked by aliens and had fallen.
After all, when there is internal turmoil in any kingdom, the surrounding forces can't wait to take a bite, and the ant world is also such a strong eater.
Therefore, the locust jackals only circled in the air to confirm that there were no traces of aliens in these areas, and after the big-headed ants were still foraging on the ground, they reported no anomalies.
Rambo Fei was very confused after receiving the information, and the Divine Envoy King stated that thirty-four messengers were indeed missing in this area, but the Flying Knight reported that no anomalies were found.
So, Lan Bofei sent another member of the Nine Warriors, the Mantis Leopard, to investigate, but the reward was still the same: there was no abnormality.
Rambo Fei always felt that something was wrong, and just as he was about to send a ground reconnaissance team, the commander-in-chief of the Flying Knights, Flyhawk, said that he had made a discovery.
As the commander-in-chief of the flying knights, the flying eagle is still very capable, but because of a series of behaviors of the flying knights against the protagonist before, he, the commander-in-chief, is not liked by the protagonist.
In this regard, the Flyhawk still hopes to change this situation, so it is also very attentive to things in the near future.
