Obviously, the ghost-patterned red ants have entered a state of winter, probably to avoid being found by the lord army, and most of the holes are blocked on the eve of heavy snowfall.

Now, the ghost-patterned red ants have all retreated from the Dark Worm Valley back into the depths of the cave.

The sky was full of the cries of Peng birds, which should be considered a hunting ground for them, but unfortunately with the invasion of the lord army, the Peng birds also lost this hunting ground.

Lance and the Mage Scout keep an eye on the birds from the north on a daily basis, and Surdak fears that they will attack the lord army in droves.

Although the harvest from entering the White Forest Plane this time was huge, and the Ghost Red Ant took the initiative to avoid the underground nest, Surdak did not intend to give up this battle with the Ghost Red Ant, and as the lord army gradually entered this Dark Worm Valley, the military camp was built under a giant mushroom umbrella.

The surface of these giant mushrooms is like a textured piece of hard wood, and even if the mushroom umbrella is covered with a thick layer of snow, these giant mushrooms are still strong. Standing tall in the valley of worms.

Many giant mushrooms have been bitten by ghostly red ants, and the ants even bite holes in the giant mushrooms, but they don't eat the woody giant mushrooms, they feed on fresh, soft fungal spores.

Presumably, the winter food reserves are enough for them to spend some time.

After the temperature plummeted, the ghost red ants lost nearly half of their combat power in extremely cold weather, and hiding in the ant nest to avoid the battle was obviously a better choice.

But Surdak didn't intend to let go of these ghost-striped red ants, they were so fertile, and this dark worm valley could not even accommodate their colony, so there was only one outward expansion of ant tides every ten years.

This time, Surdak wanted to be a little cruel to these ghost-striped red ants.

In the entire Dark Worm Valley, there are hundreds of holes in the ghost-patterned red ant nests, and now most of the anthill holes are buried under the ice and snow.

The heavy infantry squadron of the lord army began to explore these anthill holes in the worm valley, and the half-constructed knights of Surdak also entered the Dark Worm Valley together with the demonic warhorse, and the heavy cavalry regiments of other lords entered the Dark Worm Valley one after another.

The cavalry can gallop freely in the Dark Worm Valley and quickly support various areas, so the search range of the hoplite regiment involves almost the entire Dark Worm Valley.

In just a few days, Surdak harvested hundreds of anthill openings one after another.

In the tent, the commanders of the various lords' armies gathered together to report to Surdak.

"Count Surdak, our seven search teams have found seventeen anthill holes in the western area, the holes are very tightly blocked by mud, we tried to open one outside, but the mud is mixed with the mucus secreted by the red ants, and the condensed colloidal soil layer, which is very difficult to excavate." The Collins Commander reported to Surdak and put on the map the anthill openings they had found.

Surdak nodded, then looked at the other lord army commanders sitting on the sidelines.

The commander of the Langdon family, who was sitting next to the Collins family commander, coughed lightly and said to Surdak: "We organized nine search teams to search for sixteen anthill holes, and a battle broke out with the ghost-patterned red ants in the anthill at the fourth hole, they didn't seem to be in love, and sent a few soldier ants to drill out, and the ghost-patterned red ants in the back were re-blocked on the inside of this anthill hole. ”

Surdak looked at Andrew.

Andrew touched the stubble on his chin, and the Nanai warrior seemed to have something to say.

"The red ants are determined to avoid war with us this time, probably because they want to wait until this winter is over, and the poisonous fog swamp will seal the Dark Worm Valley again, when ...... Even if we stay here, logistical supplies will be forced to be halfway. Andrew gestured on the map and continued, "So the best time for us to fight is in the winter. ”

Carrie sitting next to him. Decker, with her visor-worn helmet on the long table, her straight black hair cascading down her head like a waterfall, seemed to have become a little more ladylike since returning from the battlefield.

"It's just that once we enter the anthill, all the advantages we have now will be lost." Jiali. "The ants can crawl freely in the nest, but our hoplites cannot, and we won't be able to bury our warriors in the nest because we won't be able to bury our warriors in them," Decker said. ”

The commander of the Collins family proposed, "Unless we apply to the above to construct a swordsman's regiment, I think only the elite Constructed Swordsman regiment will be able to fight deep into the ant'nest." ”

Surdak immediately shook his head and said, "The current lords will not send out the constructed swordsmen that have been accumulated with great difficulty,"

Commander Collins turned his head and asked, "So...... Lord Surdak, what are we going to do next? ”

Surdak tapped his fingers on the table, so that all the commanders who were talking in private focused their attention, and then said their plans: "Since they don't want to come out, I will set up sealing circles at the entrances of various caves next, and block them in the anthill, I am really worried that the ghost-patterned red ants hidden in the anthill will all rush out in one go, and it is estimated that by then, our tens of thousands of lord troops will really not be enough to see." ”

Finally, Surdak added: "And the weather is not cold enough now......

It's just that the commanders present are a little confused, how many sealing circles are needed for so many anthill holes!

……

Inside a large clean tent, there were thirty young magicians, these magicians had been in the White Forest Plane for half a year with Surdak's lord army, and according to the contract signed with Surdak, as long as they stayed here for half a year, they would each get a natural magic pattern.

They had seen a similar magic skin in Lance's hands, so they agreed to Lance's invitation and came to work for Lord Surdak.

Now, a new opportunity fell on their heads, the mysterious alchemy master beside Surdak was actually willing to teach them a simple sealing circle, as long as they were magicians of the mage group, they could learn it, of course, the price of learning this sealing circle was that each person needed to draw ten sealing circles.

Although the structure of the circle is very simple, none of the magic runes are built in conjunction with the ancient elven language.

This sealing circle is completely unfamiliar to these magicians, everyone is like babbling babies, relying on rote memorization to barely learn this sealing circle, the magic principles in it are far from the elven magic, according to the mysterious alchemist explanation, this sealing circle contains the Hex technology of the goblin era.

It's not ancient elven magic, so it may be difficult for everyone to learn, and don't study it too deeply, otherwise many principles and magic patterns are contrary to elven magic......

And these magicians never imagined that the magician who stood in front of the blackboard and taught them the theory and structure of magic would be a succubus.

And her lower abdomen has risen slightly, and the black magic robe is difficult to hide, and every time she walks in front of the blackboard, she will touch her lower abdomen very naturally.

In just a few days, she became the goddess in the hearts of these young magicians.

Even if she wore that mysterious Mithril mask, even if she was a pregnant woman with a slightly bulging lower abdomen, none of this could stop the charm that emanated from her......

On the night after her last teaching, Aphrodite complained to Surdak: "If King Amozdan knew that her first students would be a group of human magicians, he would have come out of Hell in a fit of rage, and would have taken her back to Hell with his own hands and tied her to the purgatory furnace to be tortured." ”

Surdak was resting his head on her bulging lower abdomen, listening to the gurgling sound inside, and looked up at Aphrodite when he heard the words.

Aphrodite smiled sweetly, gently stroked Surdak's stubble chin, and said:

"Dark, you have to grow up quickly, at least King Amozdan will come and chase us, you must have the ability to escape."

"The Great Demon King you said would really go to the human world to hunt us down because of this little thing?" Surdak asked with some concern.

"This is not a trivial matter, there is a mystery of magic in this, if there are a few smart people among them, it is estimated that more advanced sealing magic will be derived from this sealing circle." Aphrodite explained.

Surdak sat up, leaned over and took Aphrodite's pretty face in both hands, pecked her black and purple lips before saying, "I really want to remind Lance ...... when you say that."
