Chapter 69: Defending the City (3)

After the parasitic army retreated, the parasitic dragon lice in the water were still spraying water cannons at [Swamp City], washing a small section of the outer wall of the ant mound out of a pit, and the mud flowed sideways.

But the thickness of the outer wall is not enough for the parasitic dragon lice to break through.

The Divine Envoy King Legion didn't have any effective means of counterattacking these parasitic dragon lice that were obscene in the water, so they let them go, anyway, as soon as they were repaired with ant concrete at night and baked by flames, the damaged parts of the ant mound would be repaired as before, and if these parasitic dragon lice were given 10,000 years, they would not be able to collapse [Swamp City].

When the sun turns west, the parasitic dragon lice and the parasitic water spider leave in a huff, and the day's battle is completely over.

Then the ants began to get busy again, sweeping the battlefield, burying the corpses, dividing the dead tiger armor and beetle carcasses for food, and repairing the fortifications.

The protagonist is very satisfied with the performance of the defensive battle on the first day, although the fortifications of the bridgehead cost a lot of time, ant power and materials, but they did not live up to the protagonist's expectations, covering the defenders in the meantime, and causing heavy losses to the attacking parasitic beasts and parasitic ants.

However, there are only a few hundred parasitic ants on the battlefield today, and the enemy has not yet gathered all his strength.

The protagonist knows that parasites are capable of continuously mobilizing hundreds of troops to attack the indigenous scythe-hunting ant coalition outside the swamp, and the enemy forces that appear outside the bridgehead today are a very small force.

I wonder when the main forces of the enemy will appear?

- I'm the dividing line -

The next day, the protagonist has a deep understanding of what Murphy's Law and the Law of Attraction are.

Yesterday I thought that the enemy did not do his best, and early this morning, the protagonist found that a steady stream of parasitic armies appeared outside the bridgehead.

These parasitic armies poured from the sky, from the water, from the land, from all directions, and the long ranks stretched to the end of the line, and thousands of enemies flocked to the small bridgehead, like flying insects attracted by candle flames, about to extinguish the flames with flesh and blood.

Among these enemies, there are hundreds of air and naval forces, tens of thousands of parasitic ants. In an instant, it was as if the entire swamp had been shaken, and all living beings were gathering here, as if the god of the swamp was angry, commanding his subjects to swear to expel the uninvited guests from outside.

The other ants didn't have the same eyesight as the protagonist, they couldn't see such a terrifying panorama, but the mere number of enemies that had been assembled outside the bridgehead made the male commanders nervous.

The protagonist is hesitant to reveal the truth about the enemy's strength to his subordinates. With so many enemies in the face, even the most valiant warrior will be discouraged.

Sometimes, a good commander is just as good at deceiving his own soldiers as he is at deceiving his enemies, such as Cao Cao, who wants to quench his thirst. In the end, the protagonist simply summons the two Legion Commanders, Rambovan and Ramboto, and tells them the truth, without telling them the true situation of the enemy.

At this time, the Bee Flying Knights sent messengers to ask if they would attack.

Today's sky initiative is obviously not easily controlled by the Divine Envoy King Army, as far as the protagonist's eye can see, on the bushes not far outside the swamp city, densely parked with dragonflies, damselflies, bees, flies, moths, butterflies, etc. controlled by parasites.

Although there are not many parasitic dragonflies with the most combat effectiveness, only more than thirty, the other parasitic flies and butterflies lack organs that can fight.

But even more than thirty parasitic dragonflies are not something that fifty bee flying knights can easily defeat. And these fifty Bee Flying Knights are already all the air power of [Swamp City], even if there are hundreds of Bee Flying Knights on the mainland, because they have to haul the walnut ship fleet, they can't afford to send reinforcements to this side.

After a short build-up, the parasitic beast's air force began to pounce on the bridgehead without waiting for the friendly forces that were still coming from the rear, and the black pressure was like a dark cloud.

The protagonist doesn't release the Bee Flying Knight for the time being, and these only air forces can't afford to lose money.

The protagonist pins his hopes on anti-aircraft fire, and at this time, the raw materials for the bow and crossbow weapons on which he had high hopes have not yet arrived, and the ants can only continue to rely on slings for air defense.

Fortunately, the vast majority of parasitic air forces are playing soy sauce, and parasitic butterflies, flies, and moths are only flying in the sky, without any means of attack. Only after the parasitic dragonflies and so on have achieved the results of the battle, these parasitic butterflies, flies, and moths will gather around to share the spoils.

More than thirty parasitic dragonflies, as well as a small number of parasitic damselflies, and a few assassin-like parasitic wasps are the only aerial threat.

Although the slings killed some of the bees and entangled a few damselflies to the ground, there was nothing they could do about the parasitic dragonflies, which continued to swoop and disrupt the formation of the Divine Envoy King's legion on the city wall with wind pressure, and from time to time grabbed a warrior from it and took it to the air to kill.

In the continent of ice and fire, many armies are helpless in the face of one or two flying dragons, but at this moment, the first line of a thousand ant warriors is facing a double-digit parasitic dragonfly that is as difficult to deal with as a flying dragon.

Even the Divine Envoy King's legion lacked the experience to fight in the unfavorable situation of losing air supremacy, and the male ant commanders at the grassroots level still followed the usual practice, constantly gathering their scattered subordinates and recovering the military formation over and over again.

But such a dense formation is a living target for parasitic dragonflies in the air, which can effortlessly dive again and again to scatter them, catch and kill the warriors within.

In the absence of air supremacy, the protagonist did not dare to ride Xiaoqing II out today, he watched the battle in the ant mound of the second line of defense, and witnessed the unfavorable situation of the front-line troops being passively beaten.

The protagonist also tries to throw stone projectiles at the enemy's air force from the entrance and exit of the ant mound, but there are too many enemies, and a large number of non-combat units interfere with the protagonist's vision, and the protagonist has killed a few parasitic dragonflies after consuming nearly half of the time in the "God Descending" state, which does not have much effect on the reversal of the battle.

Finally, after discovering that the enemy's navy and army are also in action, the protagonist realizes that the enemy's air force cannot be allowed to continue to run rampant, and has to order the Bee Flying Knights to attack in order to regain air supremacy.

The bee riders quickly climbed to the surface of the anthill through the large-diameter entrance and exit reserved for the bees in the antmound.

Due to the large number of enemies, the bees that went out first did not dare to take off, but lay near the entrance and exit, and waited until the number reached a certain size before taking off together.

The swarms of bee flying knights immediately attracted the attention of the enemy, and some parasitic dragonflies that were closer immediately approached, while the parasitic butterflies, flies, and moths that were playing soy sauce scattered one after another, and it seemed that they had come to make a lot of soy sauce and had no intention of participating in the war.

The fierce air battle between the Bee Flying Knight and the Parasitic Air Force broke out!
