1300. Calling
Outside the camp gate, countless ghost-patterned red ants tried to break through the thin log wall, and a group of costumed knights stood on the wall, cutting down the ghost-patterned red ants that climbed up one after another.
The Constructed Knights are blessed with the power of the Constructed Magic Pattern, and basically each has a magic weapon in their hands, and can effortlessly slay the Ghost Pattern Soldier Ants.
It's just that there are so many ghost-patterned soldiers and ants rushing up from outside the wall that the knights in the costume can't keep themselves busy.
Fortunately, behind the Constructed Knights was a row of armed thunder rhinos, and a group of crossbowmen stood on the shelves, raining arrows on the outside of the wall.
From time to time, black powder kegs were thrown out of the wall, and there was a constant explosion sound.
Surdak was armed with a sword and shield and was armed at the gate of the camp.
Andrew, Wolf Knight Tygo, Gullitham, Carrie. Decker and Samira all arrived, dressed in demonic costumes and standing beside Surdak with their weapons in their hands, and the ghostly soldiers outside kept pounding at the camp gates, and even the crossbowmen on the lookout could not suppress their charge.
With a 'click' of shattering, the bolt in front of the camp gate was instantly broken, and the wooden fence gate was completely broken by the ghost pattern soldiers outside, and dozens of ghost pattern red ants rushed into the camp in an instant.
Surdak raised the Goethe's shield glowing with holy light and stood at the front of the team.
At dusk, the holy glow on the shield shone on the ghost-patterned soldier ant, and a faint layer of bright silver appeared on the hard armor, and the ghost-patterned red ant that rushed to the front bit the Goethe's shield with its sharp teeth, and Surdak took the opportunity to stab a sword from behind the shield, and the sharp broadsword pierced its upper jaw.
Taking advantage of the fact that the corpse of the ghost pattern soldier ant fell on and hit him, Zheng Zhuang Qunke picked up the Goethe shield, took a step and stepped under the ghost pattern and the ant's split head, and slashed out a sharp sword again against the soldier ant in front of him.
Covered in frost armor, Gulitham stood in front of Andreuk, picked up a small wooden stick from the outside of his hand, and slammed a group of ghost-patterned soldiers and ants into the area around Seven.
Surda and the wolf knight Bai Lin rushed down from the right and left flanks, and the attack was far more fierce than Andreuk, one of the ghost pattern soldier ants' head was split in half by Surda's axe, and the other ghost pattern soldier ant was cut off by Zheng Zhuang with a war blade.
At the gate of the camp, no seven ghost-patterned soldier ants were killed in an instant.
Jiali. Decker and Samira stood in front of them and fired a hot gun and a dark arrow, but there was no ghost pattern soldier ant who fell to the ground, eight seven-turn weak people stood behind the main gate of the camp, dozens of ghost pattern soldiers actually fell behind the small door one after another, and one ghost pattern soldier ant could rush back.
This battle brigade composed of seven weak people guarded the gate of the camp, like a Dinghai divine needle, which suddenly increased the momentum of the lord army outside the camp.
Several heavily armored infantry warriors were wearing heavy armor and rushing towards this side of the battlefield.
At this moment, in the dark insect valley, the ice and snow melted, and the grass and trees revived.
But night fell quietly at this moment, and the sky slowly turned white.
This barracks, which has become precarious due to the frantic retreat of the ghost-patterned soldier ants, heard bursts of choir prayers from outside the nearby camp, and the tumbling fog of war is broken and spread inward, permeating the entire camp, and it is stopping to devour the ghost-patterned soldier ants.
The ghostly soldiers who retreated into the fog of war were only confused for a moment, and they went their separate ways in a chaotic manner, and they would take the initiative to attack those enemies who were close to them, but continued to retreat into the camp according to the orders of the ant.
At the same time, in the sky under the mist, a huge eyeball rose sharply.
The hypnotic ripples were the 'clouds of sleep', and the ghostly soldiers in the fog around the camp ended to become groggy, and not even some of the soldiers fell silent in place.
The camp that had become crumbling on the fierce retreat of the ghost soldiers and ants gradually recovered.
The lord army, in the fog of war, once again regained the initiative on the battlefield.
Led by Sulda, the wolf knights Bai Lin and Gulitham, the Constructed Knights rushed out of the camp to launch a counterattack.
Signa's eyes turned pure white, her body exuded, standing next to Andreuk and posing lowly, she stretched out her big finger and pointed in the direction of the center of the Dark Worm Valley, and said to Andruk in a strange tone:
"Right over there, no faint existence was born, and the entire valley mutation came from this, and the ability to revive everything in the entire valley in winter should be the remnants of this dead World Tree."
"I can only help you outside the night, and after dawn you have to make a decision whether to go or stay...... You need to be casual in your thinking. ”
"I plan to retreat to the cave for the time being!" Andruck wiped the blood from his face and said categorically.
……
After a disorderly night of evacuations from the camp, by dawn, more than 70,000 lords had all entered the inner platform of the cave.
Due to the lack of time to advance this time, a small part of the supplies were carried out by the heavy infantry soldiers, and the white night was replaced by dawn, and the fog of war of the white night god disappeared, and Selena fell up from the altar with a pale face and collapsed, and was firmly held by Andreuk.
Her body is now like a huge container, only outside the white night can carry the blessing of the white night male god, she just has nothing to covet the moment after dawn, wanting to maintain the fog of war for a longer time, and it is often at this moment that the power is backlashed.
In comparison, the succubus will be less, she will always do this kind of weak thing.
While the fog was still clear, Aphrodite casually drew a void door, holding a slightly bulging belly, and quietly left the battlefield.
The fog of war entered, and there were fewer ghost pattern soldiers in the camp for seven weeks, and in addition to this, there were no dozens of ghost pattern male ants charging at the empty camp at the same time, when the ghost pattern male ant touched the log wall, the entire log wall collapsed on the weak push of the ghost pattern male ant.
A few ghostly soldiers swooped down on the camp.
From the bulge at the edge of the exit on the inner side of the cave, a group of crossbowmen shot a rain of arrows, shooting down the flying ghosts......
……
Just one night later, the outside of the Dark Worm Valley seemed to retreat into spring, the ice and snow melted, and the grass sprouted green shoots.
Samira stood under the bulge at the entrance of the cave and looked out at the giant pods in the middle of the valley from a group of giant mushrooms.
The giant pod-like plant had only a large number of dense leaves, and a strong main stem was growing towards the sky, and it was growing very slowly, as if it had built a ladder towards the sky.
Hundreds of birds hovered in the air, and the dark clouds condensed into a giant vortex, and the center point of the vortex was just below the pod.
Thunder and lightning scurried through the clouds, and there were bursts of roaring sounds.
In this battle between the Oni Soldier Ant and the Lord Army, they ended up trying to fight for their lives.
The ghost pattern ant is to use the life of the ghost pattern soldier ant to reduce the number of lord army soldiers, the ghost pattern soldier ant rushed down the battlefield, it will dodge the attack of the lord army at all, they only want to be able to cause heavy damage to the lord army soldiers after death, in just one afternoon, there are no nearly 1,000 heavy armored infantry soldiers fall under the battlefield.
As a result, the number of dead ghost-patterned soldiers and ants is twice as high as that of the hoplite soldiers, but even such a battle loss ratio is what Andruck wants to see.
Forcing Andruck to dispatch the Knights of Construct and defend the inner platform to confront the captured ghost-patterned soldiers......
This group of fierce ghost-patterned soldiers climbed down from the cliff, and there was no clear battle goal, and Andruck could only transfer weak constructed knights from various lord armies.
Although the platform at the exit of the cave was not small, the battle outside of the cave became normal and hard, and even without the support of crossbowmen, the various lords paid some casualties.
The only thing that made Andruck arrive was that the ghost ant was always there.
According to the reminder of the White Night Male God, that ghost pattern ant was the most non-threatening existence outside this valley, and it was a Fang Zai Demonic Beast whose strength had reached the peak of the eighth order.
The next eighth-order demonic beast that Andreuk came into contact with was the Demon King under the Ganbu plane, and it was the head of the Demon King that was sealed in the Mage Tower Exhibition Warehouse of the Mukuso Magic Guild at that time, so that Demon King had the ability to exert his full strength.
This time, it is said that for this battle, the main body was deliberately separated from the hatching room, and the combat power may be a little weaker than usual......
That's what worries Andruk the most.
In the hot winter, the Valley of the Dark Worm turned out to be in one. At night, it becomes lush and green, and everywhere you look, it is verdant.
A small number of ghost-patterned soldier ants appeared outside the valley, almost all of them converging towards the lord army.
……
Nika's relief tent was full of wounded hoplite soldiers, and even many of the knights in the usual outfit appeared outside the ward, and this time Andruck was actively involved in the treatment of the wounded soldiers.
Nearly 1,000 ant heads were used as sacrifices, and almost every wounded person lying under the hospital bed would receive the blessing of the gods of the 'blessed body'.
And the knights in the battlefield also do not have the two most basic high-level blessings of 'Divine Blessed Body' and 'Blessed Shield'.
The seven seven-turn weaklings around Andruk received two low-level blessings: 'Overlord' and 'Insight'.
What Zheng Zhuang Qunke could notice was that the southern indigenous maids who followed Nika had undergone some obvious changes in their bodies at this moment.
Originally priests outside the temple of the indigenous tribes of the southern Tygo plane, they came to capture the slaves, and were bought by the merchant Malacombe, who gave them to Lord Andreuk......
Andreuk's understanding of them is limited to the fact that they do not have the power to get close to nature, and they do not have the slightest power to heal.
That's why Andreuk asked them to follow Nika and set up a palliative medical team outside the barracks, obviously outside the half a year, the results of this medical team are very remarkable, and they can basically liberate Andruck from the palliative relief tent in normal times.
Only in a crisis like the present one does Andruck's power of light and God's blessing be needed.
And now, when the pod-like World Tree seedlings in the center of the Dark Worm Valley ended growing wildly towards the sky, the sealing totems that were imprinted under the priests of the Natural Temple ended to glow emerald-green, and at the same time, they also heard the call of the children of nature in the deepest part of their hearts.
At this moment, the group of indigenous men outside the palliative care team knelt up almost at the same time and prayed towards the call in their hearts......
At this moment, Andruck was still offering low-level sacrifices to the two-faced demon gods outside the tent in exchange for the blessings of those low-level gods, and he didn't notice what was happening on the side of the palliative care team.
……
At the same time, in the small rainforest south of the Tygo plane, a number of small druids outside the indigenous tribes who had turned their backs on nature were also summoned by the children of nature, and they left their homes almost immediately, only carrying complicated bags and wooden weapons in their hands, and marching out of the rainforest in long lines from various tribes.
They abandoned their homes, their livestock, and their fields.
These tribal natives have been living a life of rivalry outside the world, they have turned their backs on the children of nature, and at the same time, they have no ability to recognize herbs, and they have no recipe for treating diseases with herbs, and their weak combat power outside the jungle is also a headache for the lords of Wilkes City.
As young as a young man, they had been living in seclusion in the small rainforest in the south, and they had always appeared behind the faces of the Imperials.
For a long time, the lords of Wilkes City even ignored the fact that there was no such indigenous tribe outside the forest.
Now, tens of thousands of tribal natives came out of the rainforest, and when they marched down the grasslands, several teams converged into a torrent, and the lords of the entire Tygo plane were watching them in fear, after all, this number was too small.
This mighty army was even smaller than the total population of Wilkes City, they gnawed on the dry food they carried along the way, went north along the river, and also took the initiative to avoid Wilkes City, seeing that they seemed to have the idea of retreating to Wilkes City, the lords outside the city breathed a sigh of relief.
Wherever these tribal aborigines passed, all the ranchers who saw this small army would drive their cattle and sheep far away, and few local aboriginal herders would send down the only cattle, sheep and food that were not available outside their homes, and some would take the initiative to join this huge torrent.
When they did not show any hostility towards the Imperial people under the Tygo plane, no merchant group took the initiative to approach this huge torrent, and there was no cartload of food to replenish these tribal natives, so that they would at most worry about food during the long journey.
There were still some trucks outside the caravan that took the initiative to pull the old people and children out of the caravan.
Judging from the map, the direction of their retreat happened to be Shaodan Town......
According to the information revealed by the indigenous herders, these tribal aborigines who came from the south felt the call of nature to them.
It took them almost a month to get from the southern rainforest to the town of Shaodan.
And during this period, the outside of the Dark Worm Valley had actually been delayed in the hot winter, and the giant pod-like World Tree seedling finally lost the appearance of a small tree, and under the command of the ghost pattern ant, the space inside the cave was too small The battle platform had been completely demolished by the ghost pattern male ant.
In the course of a month, the lord's army encountered the most brutal retreat of the ghost pattern soldiers.
Because of the limited battlefield, the scale of the daily battle between the ghost soldiers and the lord army is small, and almost all of the knights sent by Andreuk are constructed knights, so the casualties on the lord army's side have increased by a small amount......
