CHAPTER XXXV
"Everyone." The Hunter sat on his throne and glanced at the wormmen below with his one-eyed eyes, "We have three liaison officers who didn't return within the allotted time. ”
"Maybe something happened to them on the way that made it delay?"
The Hunter glanced at the insect man and said, "You haven't forgotten why we sent a liaison every winter, right?" ”
"That's because...... The nezumi will launch a counterattack in the winter, and in order to determine whether the city will be breached in the winter, they will send a liaison officer. The insect man said, "But the nezumi have been wiped out by the insect people, right?" There are no other hostile races in the vicinity. ”
"No," the hunter's one-eyed reflection shone brightly, "the last remnants of the nezumi have fled, and besides, you can't forget the case where a wasteland clearing team disappeared before winter and the subsequent rescue wormmen, right?" The location of the city that lost contact this time...... It's around there......"
"This ......"
"Prepare to assemble troops. Nezumi ...... Maybe it's back, or ......" The Hunter remembered the race that was not afraid of death.
With the words of the Hunter, the Zerg began to work inside, and the armies of various cities began to assemble, and reconnaissance troops were sent to find out the reality of the enemy.
Taryn was the first to spot the insects, but he didn't intend to destroy them.
"Let them see something, but not too much." "We're going to make them feel like we're only showing up so little. to lower their vigilance, which makes it easier to establish an early advantage. ”
"Hide all the battle bugs except the soldier bugs, and let those rat people hide too." Taryn gave the order, "Only five hundred soldiers and insects are to be left in each city for surface activities. ”
Tunnels dug by workers hid most of the troops underground, leaving only a small number of troops operating on the surface, misleading them with false information, and then catching them off guard in the first wave, increasing the chances of victory. To put it simply, it is to pretend to be a little white rabbit, and then when the other party feels that he is sure of himself, he suddenly shows his fangs and bites back.
This is just a simple small means, but in addition to this, it still needs to be decided head-on, and the Zerg need to defeat the Zerg troops head-on.
Although it is completely possible to attack before the Wormmen's troops have completed their assembly...... But winter has passed, and in this case the siege ......
Taryn felt that the other party could inflict huge losses on the Zerg even if he didn't rely on the terrain advantage, at least he didn't have to run for two. And Tyrann's swarm can't do it, thousands of bugs can be hung today, and tens of thousands of bugs can explode in minutes tomorrow, and if they lose, they can't even recover the corpse.
It's better to obediently defend the city and wait for the opportunity to counterattack. Anyway, more than 2,000 soldiers and insects have already been scattered into the kingdom of the insects, and when the other party launches a siege war, they can make a wave of logistics on the opposite side, and then push back.
If it weren't for the rat people, Tyron would have planned to release those spores behind the insect people, disrupt the opponent's rear, affect their frontal combat effectiveness, and then crush them.
However, Tyron didn't do nothing during the time when the Bugmen were gathering troops, he made some interesting little things, and by the way, he ambushed some strong acid bugs on the path of the Bugmen's march, which was usually dormant, and waited for the Zermen's troops to be seen by battlefield observers...... They wake up and rush at the bugmen......
However, the number of ambushes in Tylen is not too much, at most a surprise attack, after all, there will always be a countermeasure for the other party to attack too many like this. Taryn wasn't going to scrap this tactic yet.
More than a dozen insect people quietly walked on the path, and in the grass next to the path, small black beetles quietly observed these insect people.
"Captain, the rats aren't really coming back, are they?" The insect man asked, "Are we going to fight the nezumi again?" What do nezumi look like? ”
"How do I know this? I've never seen a nezumi again. The captain said angrily, "Anyway, shut up, we're here to find out information, and we're almost close to those lost cities." Enemies can appear at any time. Next, go directly to the forest, the path is not safe. ”
"Yes, Captain."
After continuing to march for a while, the insects came to the nearest lost city.
"It's so quiet...... Captain Bugman felt wrong at first glance, it was so quiet, it was a dead city.
"Shouldn't all the wormmen inside......" A worm soldier shuddered.
"......" the captain was silent for a while, and then said, "We'll get closer in the evening." It's too easy to be exposed during the day, so rest and recuperate. ”
"Wait, Captain, there's something coming out of the city." Another insect man whispered as he pointed to the gate.
The captain of the insect people looked at the city gate in the distance, and several creature on all fours with a pair of claws like knife arms on their backs came out of the city, shook it around, and then returned to the city.
"That...... Is it the nezumi? ”
"How is that possible?" The captain glared at the questioning wormman, "The rat-man only has four limbs, and this thing has six. It was a different creature. ”
"Is that so?" The wormman shook the tentacles on his head in embarrassment.
"It's probably this creature that attacked the city of the Zermen...... "We'll have to find out how many people we're trying to figure out." ”
……
As night fell, the insects' black carapaces provided a camouflage for them, and they crept close to the city, but were not attacked, as if the creature was not in the habit of keeping sentry.
The gates were closed, but they were not jammed with the baffles, opening a one-meter-wide gap.
"Don't they even close the gates? Or is there a trap? Captain Worm muttered to himself.
"You two, go ahead and explore the way to see if there are any alien monsters or anything like that." The captain designated two wormmen and said.
Without saying a word, the two insects quietly reached in from the city gate to observe the internal environment, and then their whole bodies drilled through again.
"Safety." There are such pheromones coming from ahead.
Then the insects also entered the city lightly.
"What is this?"
There is a slimy-looking layer of stuff on the street, and it's weird to look closely at what is still undulating.
The captain pulled out his sword and poked at the fungus blanket, but there seemed to be no special reaction, but the sword cut through the slimy layer, and some strange white liquid flowed out.
"What is this...... "The captain raised his sword and put it in front of him, the liquid didn't seem to be corrosive.
"Anyway, leave this alone and pay attention to the surrounding situation, understand?" The captain said that this white liquid does not know if it is poisonous or not, and it is better to be a little cautious.
"Gah!" A hissing sound could be heard in the distance......

"Our Whole Community Crossed"
My name is Lubar, my foreign name is Tarask, and I am a resident of No. 682 in this community.
I have an AI friend who has a big appetite for me and I like to chat with it.
I know a sick girl who will break someone's neck if she doesn't look at her, but I'm not afraid because I can not blink.
I know a foodie who eats everything and I hate foodies.
I also know a girl who is easily shy, she doesn't like to see her face the most, but every time she meets me, she turns her face away from me.
My neighbor was a little girl, she was always alone, I was the only playmate she had, and I pitied her.
I heard others say that I live opposite the door and think the kind old man, hell, how come I have never seen it?
What I hate most is a nasty bear child who always makes the people around her laugh and swear to see her and hit her once since I almost got to her laugh last time.
In short, it's such a peaceful community, and one day, suddenly I don't know why, a group of strange wyverns broke in, and a group of guys who claimed to be heroic spirits, and then, we found out, our community seems to have traveled to France?!
