Adams kept watch at the head of the city all night.

The fire under the walls also burned all night.

The corpse of the ghost-patterned red ant was reduced to ashes in the flames, and only a shallow layer of ash remained under the city wall, and the rocks in the lower part of the city wall became like uneven glass under the melting of the flames, but it was full of impurities.

At dawn, the corners of the city walls were still full of smoke and fire, and the heat wave could be felt from a distance of ten meters.

The ghostly red ants on both sides of the mountain wall stopped attacking, and the heavy infantry at the head of the city fought. Night, finally able to catch their breath at dawn.

At this moment, all the demonic beasts in the canyon were devoured by the ghost-patterned red ants, except for some white bones and rocks exposed in the ghost-patterned red ant colony, even the barren grassland in the canyon and the woods at the foot of the mountain were all here. The night is completely gone.

The only thing that remains intact is the northern city wall, and the ghost-patterned red ants gathered under the city wall exit the city wall fifty meters away.

The dense ghost-patterned red ants huddled together, facing the heat wave under the city wall, not daring to take a step forward.

Gallatin climbed up the wall in the morning, and he approached Adams, and saw that his short blond hair had been half burned by the fire, and that his handsome face had become black, and that he was so embarrassed that he was embarrassed.

I was about to make fun of Adams, but I saw a commotion in the ant colony surrounding the city.

The Ghost Striped Worker Ants ducked to the sides, and one by one the huge Ghost Striped Red Ants emerged from the colony, these darker red ants had huge pincers on their heads, and each leg was covered with sharp spikes, and the giant Ghost Striped Red Ants were at least three times larger than the average Ghost Striped Worker Ant.

Gallatin's eyes were a little straight, pointing to the large red ants under the city, and asked, "Adams, what are those?" ”

Adams had not seen it either, stood with Gallatin, and did not know what to say.

"Ghost Soldier Ants, they are the real warriors in the colony." Surdak walked over and said to the two of them.

He endured the heat that came up from below, stood by the wall, and checked the extent of the damage to the wall below, and saw that it was in good condition.

Turning around, he said to one of the several squadron leaders behind him: "You go and let the catapults under the city wall start, now the whole canyon is crowded with ghost-patterned red ants, and if you just blast out a flint, you can kill dozens of them, don't be reluctant to give up the stone." ”

"Yes!" The squadron leader followed and climbed the city wall, just waiting for such a sentence.

He ran down to the city, but he didn't dare to complain.

The catapult resembles a long lever supported on a huge wooden frame, with a spoon-shaped throwing groove on one side and a large, sturdy iron basket at the other end, filled with counterweighted boulders.

The iron basket, which weighs several tons of counterweight stones, is hoisted onto a two-metre-high platform with a block of pulleys. As long as you pull the wrench on the platform, the flap of the platform will automatically open, and the entire iron basket will fall down instantly. While falling, pull the lever of the catapult to throw the flint out of the spoon-shaped groove at the other end.

This type of catapult usually needs to calibrate the throwing angle before throwing.

This was already debugged a few days ago, and now it only needs to be loaded with the flint that ignites it, and it is ready to go.

The soldier in charge of the catapult had climbed the tall wooden frame, and the flint had been placed in a spoon-shaped groove.

Standing at the head of the city, Surdak commanded one of the scribes:

"Tell Selena, let her inform the quarry in the town to work hard to process flint, and the blacksmith shop will also make a large number of arrows, now mobilize the whole town to sharpen the arrow shaft, be sure to increase the inventory of crossbow arrows to five thousand bundles, and tell those merchants in the town that now the Warcraft materials are only exchanged for armament materials, we need more fire oil, twine, arrowheads, and let those merchants who come to trade with gold coins and magic crystals get out."

Surdak paused, turned his head to see Adams still standing there, and shouted at him with round eyes:

"Adams, why are you still here?"

Adams was startled and was about to explain.

Surdak drove him off the city wall and said, "Hurry down and rest, the beast tide has just begun, we are not worth it for long, we must be prepared for a protracted battle......"

The ghostly red ants still didn't dare to pass through the scorching wall of fire.

The flints were thrown out by the catapult and exploded in the colony of ghost-patterned red ants, which caused quite a commotion.

The sackcloth soaked in fire oil was wrapped around the stones, lit and thrown out, rolling down into the colony, ploughing out a trench almost twenty meters long, and finally bursting into a flaming shard.

A row of ghost-patterned soldier ants that rushed to the front of the ant colony finally found a breakthrough from both sides of the city wall, and climbed onto the rock wall with a group of ghost-patterned worker ants, bypassing the fire wall and rushing to the side of the city wall.

However, the ghost pattern ant at the front was hit by a few arrows, and the steel arrows shot by the alloy bow could not penetrate the armor of the ghost pattern soldier ant.

For a time, an emergency signal was issued on both sides of the city wall.

Andrew is looking to be on duty at night, and if there is no emergency during the day, he will rest in the barracks.

Samira and the ogre Gulitham followed Surdak to the top of the city, and Gulitum the ogre followed Gallatin to the west cliff of the city wall to support.

Surdak and Samira rushed to the east side of the north city wall, and saw a huge ghost-patterned soldier ant about to climb over the wall, and the Samira people were still running......

There seemed to be a continuous convergence of light around the tip of the arrow.

At the moment when the bow and arrows were released, the ghost-patterned soldier ant looked at Samira with a pair of huge oval eyes, and it opened its huge pincers to pounce on Samira.

The arrow had turned into a white light, and it hit one of the eyes of the ghost-patterned soldier ant at a speed that was indiscernible to the naked eye, and the arrow was deeply embedded in it.

Surdak stepped on the aura of strength and rushed to the front of the ghost-patterned soldier ant, and the blood-red crescent moon in his hand stabbed at the soldier ant without hesitation.

The moment he stabbed it, Surdak uttered a brief runic word in his throat.

‘Tir-El’

A demonic pattern lit up in front of him, and the blade of the blood-red crescent moon lit up with overlapping lines, and when the blade cut into the ghost-patterned soldier ant pincers, it was like cutting into a piece of soft cheese.

In an instant, the more than three-meter-long ghost pattern soldier ant was decapitated by Surdak.

A group of worker ants hiding behind this ghost-patterned soldier ant were also shot by the archers on the arrow tower.

Samira had climbed aboard the bed crossbow on one side, ready to shoot down with the giant crossbow arrows from the ghost-patterned soldiers on the cliff wall in the distance.

At this time, Surdak instructed Samira on the side: "Put another one in and let it climb up, this should be among the second-level demonic beasts...... The most brainless kind! ”

Surdak said as he threw the head of the ghost-patterned soldier ant in the corner of the city wall, and the body of the ghost-patterned soldier ant was also dragged up the city wall by two heavy infantry and then thrown into the inner city wall, and there were also people in the leather shops under the city wall who were busy skinning the monsters they hunted yesterday......

Samira sat on the console of the bed crossbow, staring at the ghost-patterned red ants surging up from the stone wall in the distance, and put the one in front of her closer and closer.
