In the dark ant colony, hundreds of parasitic war beasts of various sizes were extremely eye-catching.
Some of these war beasts have huge and burly bodies, such as the parasitic dung beetle, which looks like a hill against the ant colony; some have ferocious faces, such as the parasitic centipede, with its long twisting body, densely packed jointed limbs, and huge Their poisonous needles and bright body colors all look terrifying; some weapons are terrifying, such as the parasitic mole cricket, whose forelimbs have a structure similar to a mantis's sickle.
This mixed legion gathered not far from the [Bridgehead], staring eagerly at the [Bridgehead] and the defenders inside.
This is the day after the [Bridgehead] was repaired, and a new battle is about to begin.
The Legion of the God Envoy King is already well prepared: the flying knights remain in the ant mound for the time being, but are ready to attack at any time; the ant warriors have set up a heavy defense line on the first fence, and there are reserves in the ant mound at the rear.
The protagonist stands at the highest point of the anthill, manning the ballista and aiming it in the direction where the enemy army appears.
Today, the parasitic army obviously did not expect that the ants suddenly appeared at [Bridgehead] again, and part of the air force and navy followed the inertia and ran to [Swamp City] to launch an attack.
The other half of the air force and navy were stationed near the [Bridgehead]. But the protagonist ignored these few enemies in the air and water. With the air defense net in place, they didn't pose much of a threat.
His ballistae was aimed at the parasitic army. Those parasitic ants and parasitic war beasts that could get through the holes of the air defense net were the number one enemy.
Thousands of enemy troops appeared today. Due to the obstruction of vegetation, the protagonist cannot estimate the exact number, but it is obviously larger than the first defensive battle at [Bridgehead]. From a distance, it looks like a mass of blackness, covering the ground.
After the parasitic army assembled not far away, they finally took action.
Although the parasitic ants and the parasitic war beasts launched their charge almost at the same time and seemed to be in perfect coordination, if you take a closer look, you will find that there are many inconsistencies.
Some larger parasitic war beasts ran without regard for the "friendly forces" in front of them, and their huge bodies ran rampant. Some unlucky ants or small parasitic war beasts were injured in the brute force trampling and collision of the big men.
In a large group of charging teams, injury is likely to mean death. The companions at the rear will not take the injured at all and continue to trample them until the injured are dead and will not feel the pain.
The fastest parasitic war beasts have already rushed into the range of the ballista. Today, the protagonist has no time to aim carefully. He asked the assistant soldier to load five stone bullets into the ballista.
As the bowstring suddenly sounded, five stone bullets were fired, announcing the official start of today's defensive battle.
Five stone bullets were fired at the parasitic war beasts that were charging ahead. Due to the narrow land route, these parasitic war beasts were very close to each other. Only two of the five stone bombs missed, falling into the soil and bouncing a few times, and then hit the ground. A streak of smoke.
The remaining three hit the target, and an unlucky parasitic spider was hit directly by two of them. Its bones were broken and its tendons were broken. It was rolling on the ground in pain, consuming its last life force, and the silk parasitic bacteria on its body had already been destroyed. Start to escape.
The other one that was hit was a parasitic locust. Its carapace was very thick. It was only slightly injured after being hit by a bullet. Blood and tissue fluid flowed from the carapace, and it was still charging.
The protagonist continued to wind up and fire, while the ant warriors on the side kept loading. The ballista fired at a high speed of about ten seconds, unleashing firepower in the distance.
Not far above the protagonist's head, there is a parasitic dragonfly lying on the protective net, chewing on the net rope, and staring at it eagerly. However, except for one or two of the ants, they are watching here to prevent the parasitic bacteria from sneaking away. Come down and pay no attention to it.
The protagonist did not chase after the first few parasitic beasts. After the enemy troops entered the shooting range, he kept covering the shooting - using long-range firepower to maximize the damage and weakening of the enemies. This is the protagonist's goal. intention.
The ballista shells were a disaster for the densely charging parasitic ants and parasitic war beasts.
Since the protagonist has previewed and practiced before, he clearly knows the range and general dispersion of the ballista, and most of the shells hit the charging enemies on the narrow land passage.
The shells of these ballistae hit and bounced among the ants, and sometimes even knocked over several parasitic ants in one hit, plowing out several passages in the black "carpet" of the ant colony to reveal the true nature of the land.
Those big parasitic war beasts are also uncomfortable. Although their carapace is strong and their resistance to blows is strong, these parasitic war beasts are large in size and are more vulnerable to ballista shells.
A huge parasitic dung beetle was still crawling forward quickly, but its speed was no longer as fast as before. It was even limping. One of its limbs was broken by a cannonball!
This parasitic dung beetle was hit by several stone bullets all over its body. Although only some minor carapace cracks could be seen on the outside, it had been shocked inside.
In the end, the parasitic dung beetle couldn't crawl anymore. It wanted to stop and take a breather, but its severe injuries made it unable to hold on any longer. As soon as its six limbs were loosened, it turned over on its back with its belly in the sky.
Other parasitic ants and parasitic war beasts did not hesitate to bypass or even climb over its dying body, and continued to charge forward.
The protagonist's ballistae is harvesting wantonly like the scythe of death. A small number of ballistae shells will be blocked by the ropes of the air defense net, but it does not affect the overall situation.
After the main force of the parasitic ants finally rushed within three meters of the [bridgehead], the Angel King's army also began to cover and shoot with slings.
Although the slings thrown by these ants are far less powerful than ballistae, and their lethality against parasitic war beasts is very weak, they are superior in quantity.
A large number of parasitic ants were hit one after another, with broken bones and tendons, resulting in heavy casualties.
But the parasitic army that finally rushed to the protective net could finally begin to fight back.
The big parasitic war beast couldn't get through the holes of the protective net, so like the parasitic dragonfly, it began to chew on the net ropes, trying to destroy the protective net.
The parasitic ants and some small parasitic war beasts got directly into the net holes, then climbed up the stones and city walls, and feigned attacks on the warriors of the God Envoy King above.
There are also some parasitic war beasts with long-range attack power, which launch shooting outside the network.
For example, a parasitic centipede was huge, with a bright red carapace and a flame-yellow poison needle. It pointed its poison needle at the defenders, and when its long body swelled, a thick red mist shot out.
A small section of the city wall was covered by this red mist, and both the warriors and parasitic ants inside immediately began to writhe in pain.
