Just when the black-headed sour ants used a small part of their forces to spray formic acid in turn at the entrance and exit positions, the paving ants were blocked under the auxiliary nest and could not go out, and then the large army took the opportunity to rob and sweep around, and the paving ant warriors did not stop at it.

It seemed that the enemy did not intend to attack the underground directly, and after pacifying the troops, the commanders of the paving ants had more time to calmly think about countermeasures.

The first to notice the movement of the paving ant army was not the black-headed sour ant fighting on the front line, but the protagonist.

The scout team is now at the top of a small dead tree near the secondary nest, with an army of black-headed sour ants raging at their feet.

However, the black-headed sour ants are not interested in this small dry tree, which means that there will be no food on it, and naturally there is no need to pay attention to it.

The protagonists, they lurk under the noses of both sides.

Here, the protagonist is given a good view of the battlefield from a god's perspective, but most of the scout kings can't see what's happening on the ground.

Although the smell of formic acid diffused here is much weaker, it still makes the fly mounts a little anxious - the painful memories left by the sting of ants with formic acid are engraved in the genes of all insects, just like the fear of poisonous snakes in human genes.

The Flying Knights are busy calming their restless mounts, and it is at this moment that the protagonist notices something unusual.

The paving ants have only one entrance and exit to the secondary nest, and now they are blocked by black-headed sour ants and cannot break through.

But in other directions, unnoticed by the black-headed sour ants, there is a pile of topsoil arching.

The protagonist takes a closer look, and soon notices that the head of a paving ant warrior has come out of the dirt.

It turns out that the paver ants have quietly dug new entrances and exits underground to avoid the blockade of the black-headed sour ants in front of them.

There are three such entrances and exits, which have been formed in a short time under the excavation of pave ants and worker ants, and the black-headed sour ants are too scattered to know about it.

Then, a large number of paving ant warriors poured out of the ground.

This time, the paving ants learned their lesson, and instead of gathering into large troops, they worked in small teams to kill the black-headed sour ants around them.

At this time, the black-headed sour ants had been completely dispersed, looting and killing everywhere, and only the two troops that guarded the queen ant and blocked the entrance and exit of the auxiliary nest were still organized.

What's worse is that the formic acid of many black-headed sour ant warriors has been exhausted in the previous battles, and without the addition of formic acid, the combat effectiveness of the black-headed sour ant has plummeted.

The scattered black-headed sour ants that swooped around were soon attacked by the paving ant warriors who were in small squads. A paving ant troop of this size has significantly increased mobility, and it has an organizational advantage in the face of sporadic black-headed sour ant warriors.

At this time, the black-headed sour ants were no longer as brave as they had been when they took the initiative to attack before, and they almost did not dare to fight the paving ant warriors head-on, and as soon as they made contact, they immediately retreated, fleeing towards the location of the black-headed sour ant queens.

Due to the fact that the Paving Ant Warriors still needed to maintain the formation of the squad, most of the Blackhead Sour Ant Warriors managed to escape, and only a few were killed.

The black-headed sour ant warriors who still have some formic acid are no longer stingy with their stocks, and do their best to spray out the formic acid in a short period of time to buy a little time for themselves and their companions.

More and more paving ant warriors poured out of several makeshift entrances and exits, and numerous squads began to move forward in a continuous line.

From a high place, the black-headed sour ants that were originally scattered seemed to be vulnerable, and as soon as the front of the paving ants came into contact, they immediately "collapsed".

However, the protagonist also saw that the black-headed sour ants retreated without chaos, as if they had a plan, and all the soldiers were running quickly in the direction of the queen ant, during which there were constantly fighters reflexively spraying formic acid, which effectively delayed the pursuit of the paving ant army.

It seems that the black-headed sour ants are just planning to come over and grab a handful and leave, and they have no idea of losing their strength for this.

Now, although the paving ant warriors are running away with the black-headed sour ants, the loss of the black-headed sour ants is not large, but the food near the secondary nest of the paving ants is about to be emptied.

The real battle took place near the old camp of the black-headed sour ants.

This was originally the location of the black-headed sour ant queens, and a large amount of looted food was also transported here.

While the vast majority of the black-headed sour ants are out to plunder, there are still about a thousand black-headed sour ant warriors here who maintain their complete formation and formation. None of these worker ant warriors had fought before, and the formic acid in the glands was still very abundant.

The black-headed sour ant warriors who got the news returned to the old camp one after another, and the warriors without formic acid carried supplies one after another, covering the retreat of the queen ant in the direction she came.

At the front of the retreating procession, two hundred warriors with formic acid were in charge of clearing the way.

This retreat cannot be achieved overnight, it will take a certain amount of time. But now the army of paving ants is chasing after them, and reinforcements that have just poured out of the ground are constantly supporting them.

The black-headed sour ants need time to retreat and need cover from the troops behind the palace.

Originally, the 1,000 fighters who stayed in the old camp took on this task, and some black-headed sour ant warriors who also had formic acid also joined them.

They formed a formation and sprayed formic acid at the paving ant warriors who dared to approach.

At this time, it can be seen that the black-headed sour ants are conserving formic acid, and they do not carry out large-scale salvos, but shoot sporadically every time.

However, the Paving Ant Army is obviously very afraid of formic acid, and will temporarily stop once it encounters an attack of formic acid, which buys a lot of time for the retreating black-headed sour ant army.

After spraying the black-headed sour ant with formic acid, the warrior of the palace immediately reflexively joined the retreating team without hesitation.

When the black-headed sour ant got fewer and fewer troops behind the palace, the paving ant warriors finally couldn't hold it back and launched a full-line assault.

The last 300 or so black-headed sour ants immediately opened fire, shooting out what little formic acid they had left, and then turned and fled as well—they had no plan or courage to fight the Paving Ant Warriors hand-to-hand.

When the paving ant warriors crossed the formic acid-contaminated ground, they no longer stopped their power, they kept pursuing, and the exhausted black-headed sour ants were constantly chased and killed.

However, the large army of black-headed sour ants had already escaped, and most of the troops behind the palace had also successfully escaped, and the paving ant army had only killed more than a hundred black-headed sour ants in the pursuit.

In addition, near the secondary nest, there are some sporadic black-headed sour ants that have not yet been heard. These ants also run away as soon as they come into contact, and their dexterity makes it difficult for the pursuers to help them.

At this point, a battle of plunder and counterattack came to an end.
