This parasitic dung beetle is extremely tenacious. Even though a large hole was opened in its entire abdomen, and its internal organs, blood and tissue fluid were flowing like a flood and covering a large area of the city wall, it still survived.
This huge creature's six limbs, either good or broken, were waving wildly, driving the body on its back to twist and move. Its surroundings were cleared into a no-man's land, and the ants on both sides that could not escape were all killed by the dying beasts. The explosion was blown away or crushed into pulp.
The protagonist had already escaped. He called back the guard team and stayed far away from the dying fighting beast.
The God Envoy King's army and the parasitic ants actually stopped attacking at the same time in tacit agreement and gathered around the crazy war beast. This kind of peace is temporary. When the war beast is dying and can no longer hurt the ants, the war will break out.
Just when the protagonist thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard a loud "boom" from behind him.
The protagonist turned around and saw a puff of smoke rising high on the opposite side of the fortress, but the protagonist's line of sight was blocked by the city wall and he couldn't see clearly what was going on.
The protagonist had a bad premonition in his heart. He hurriedly climbed up to the second floor of the city wall and looked at the east side of the fortress.
There, a large hole was broken in the middle of the originally complete city wall. The hole was filled with smoke and dust. The head of a huge parasitic dung beetle was still humping there, trying to make the hole bigger and let its fat body You can also squeeze in.
This is the parasitic dung beetle that was thrown off the fortress by the protagonist. Falling from a height of more than one decimeter from the fortress will not cause any harm to the strong body of this dung beetle.
The parasitic dung beetle was frightened instinctively, and then was driven away by the new worker ants, and crawled up the fortress again.
When the protagonist was dealing with the war beast on the other side, this parasitic dung beetle climbed up the first wall of the fortress in a few steps. Without the assistance of the protagonist, the defenders of the God Envoy King's army here were completely unable to fight against this monster, and the tight defense formation was overwhelmed in an instant.
At this time, the parasitic ants that had been unable to conquer the first city wall for a long time received the latest order from the large pale gold worker ants at the rear.
As a result, the parasitic ant army changed its tactics. Except for a small number of parasitic ants launching diversionary attacks in various areas of the first city wall, the parasitic ants from the other legions gathered near the parasitic dung beetle.
The commander of the parasitic dung beetle drove it directly to attack the thin second city wall.
The second city wall is very thin, only one-third of a decimeter thick, and the structural strength of "ant concrete" is far inferior to human building materials. Under several impacts from this extremely powerful parasitic dung beetle, holes and cracks opened in the originally smooth wall.
Then, the parasitic dung beetle started its best digging operation, using its horned head and shovel-like forelimbs to work together, and soon dug bigger and bigger holes in the city wall.
At the same time, a large number of parasitic ant warriors accompanying the parasitic dung beetle climbed up the tall back of the war beast, and then climbed up to the second city wall from here.
The defenders of the second city wall sensed the danger and threw countless fire clay bombs in this direction. Although they could not threaten the thick-shelled parasitic dung beetles, they finally stopped the crazy momentum of the parasitic ants from climbing the second city wall. .
The fortress defenders on both sides of the first city wall also discovered the critical situation here. In areas with little defensive pressure, they continuously drew out a squad or several squads to form a tight formation and moved over, attacking the parasitic dung beetles from the side. Parasitic ant warriors attack.
The crazy parasitic ant warriors, relying on their numerical superiority, withstood the flank attack of the Divine Envoy King's army, never taking a step back even if they had to pay a huge sacrifice.
The reinforcements on both sides are having trouble advancing, but the holes in the city wall are getting bigger and bigger. Once the city wall collapses, there will no longer be any defenses that can stop the enemies and war beasts from advancing straight into the interior of the fortress.
The squad of the First Legion that assisted in the defense of the second city wall. Some of them, under the command of the brave and crazy male ant commander, jumped off the city wall and jumped on the back of the parasitic dung beetle, trying to find The weak points attack this war beast directly.
There were a large number of silk parasites and parasitic ant warriors on the back of this war beast. The moment the entire team landed, they were submerged by the enemy's tide without even reorganizing their formation. They were unable to stop this parasitic ant. Even for a second.
As the city wall was dug thinner and thinner, countless fine cracks began to appear inside and outside the city wall.
Finally, there was a loud "bang", and a small section of the city wall collapsed together with the defenders above, bringing up a large plume of smoke and dust. This is the strange noise the protagonist heard before.
The parasitic dung beetle shook its head. The huge smoke and dust and the broken pieces of the city wall that hit it made it very uncomfortable.
However, under the harsh stings of the commander behind it, this parasitic dung beetle could only endure the harsh environment and continued to use its huge front feet to dig the soil to expand the gap in the city wall to accommodate its huge abdomen.
After hearing the news, the protagonist quickly led the guards team to come for support.
The first legion of the Divine Envoy King, which was the reserve force, was also alerted. A large number of warriors on standby on the platform inside the fortress bravely swarmed towards the gap in the city wall under Gun's command.
Although the gap in the city wall has not yet been completely opened, and the parasitic dung beetles are still expanding the gap, the parasitic ants have already begun to launch a general attack. They frantically climbed the second city wall, trying to drive away the small and frightened defenders above.
There are fewer and fewer parasitic ants in other directions, and the fortress defenders are quickly concentrating on this only location where a fierce battle is still taking place.
The soldiers of the First Legion, who were blocking the gap in the city wall, rushed towards the hideous-looking war beast through the narrow gap, trying to attack its eyes. While the parasitic dung beetle was widening the gap, it was constantly waving its front legs to fly away any soldier ants that dared to approach. Or open a big mouth filled with the stench of rotting corpses, chew up the soldier ants and swallow them one after another.
The battle on the second city wall was also extremely fierce. Many places were lost one after another, only to be recaptured by the First Legion regardless of their own safety. The legion that has followed the protagonist for the longest time has the highest proportion of veterans. They have lived up to the protagonist's expectations, firmly blocking the parasitic ants under the city wall and unable to move forward.
The protagonist goes up from the second city wall platform to the gap. Along the way, he has to deal with enemies climbing up crazily, and occasionally assists the first army to repel the parasitic ants that have gained a foothold on the city wall.
As a result, the traveling speed will inevitably be affected. When they finally arrived near the gap, the protagonist was already in the lead, while Hua Mulan and other guardsmen were still a few steps behind.
The protagonist had just arrived near the gap when his feet suddenly loosened. The wall he was standing on was dug down by a parasitic dung beetle, and the protagonist fell down together with the fragments.
And the location where he fell was so good that it was next to the stinky mouth of the parasitic dung beetle...
