The Destroyer Commander, after narrowly escaping death, immediately escaped among many Destroyers with the same appearance. The protagonist was unable to track him and lost his target. He tried to find just one among the large group of enemies. There are differences in temperament and defeating the Destroyer is no less than finding a needle in a haystack.
The protagonist had no choice but to give up and concentrate on dealing with the three newly emerged ant towers.
Each of these three ant towers consists of fewer destroyers than the one before it, and therefore grows at a slower rate.
But even so, it is extremely difficult for the protagonist to cope with it.
I saw the protagonist running wildly on the embankment, appearing here and there. One moment he smashed the ant tower with a long stick, the next moment he dug wildly and destroyed the ant tower with the tumbling sand, earth and rocks, and the next moment he stabbed down the destroyer who had just climbed up.
Even if the protagonist works so hard, the destroyers still have to climb up the embankment and bite together with the guarding warriors of the Envoy King.
Fortunately, the dam is already loose, and after the protagonist dug around, it became even softer. It was okay for the soldiers of the God's Envoy King to stand on it, but for the Destroyer who climbed half of his body onto the embankment, it was simply a trap at every step.
Their bodies are unable to fully stand on the top of the embankment. Only the front two limbs or front limbs are clinging to the embankment, and the back half of the body is still hanging in the air. The Destroyer behind is still anxiously supporting each other and spreading upward, desperately pushing its belly upwards. .
The Destroyer, who was the first to climb up, had to overcome the earth and rocks that were constantly being ripped off under his joints, struggled to fix himself, and tried to roll his whole body to the top of the embankment; while he had to deal with the counterattack of the defenders. Even as powerful as the Destroyer, he still had to scramble.
Some Destroyers couldn't hold on and rolled down along the falling sand and stones, hitting several of their companions. Some refused to retreat even to the death, and could not move but were bitten to death by the defenders.
Even so, more and more Destroyers slowly climbed up the embankment, and some fierce Destroyers finally took up a position on the embankment, covering other Destroyers behind them to climb up.
Some areas have finally been broken through, and the protagonist has no time to destroy the ant towers. He is now like a firefighter, supporting everywhere and filling the most critical gaps.
The protagonist has not experienced such a long-term front-line battle for a long time. Even if he enters the state of "God descends to earth", he will soon feel tired.
Unknowingly, an hour had passed and the dike defense line was already crumbling, but it was still holding on. But the protagonist can no longer hold on any longer. His "God descends to earth" state has been maintained to its limit. He has never used his ability for such a long time, and now he can hold on with just one breath.
The protagonist stood in a relatively safe position at the back, and struck down with the long, slightly curved stick in his hand, smashing the Destroyer standing on the city wall into the ground. His skull was cracked open and he died.
The protagonist's consciousness was already a little confused. He was still instinctively searching for the target to hit. His front limbs were so sore that he could hardly lift the long stick that he could easily swing.
He guarded the last trace of clarity in his mind. If it weren't for ants having tongues, the protagonist would have bitten his tongue to stay awake.
The protagonist's last trace of reason told him that he could no longer hold on here. The protagonist was too arrogant before and dared to launch an attack with only two legions. Even with the embankment defense facilities that had been planned long ago, it currently seems not enough to withstand the desperate counterattack of the besieged Destroyer.
In particular, there is a commander among the enemies who is obviously very intelligent.
The protagonist was finally forced to exit the state of "God descending to earth", and the huge pain that he had not felt for a long time came back, making him miserable.
The protagonist's last memory before fainting was: a flying knight landed and told him that the Destroyer force that had been led to the woods had turned back. The protagonist gave the order to retreat to the messenger around him, and then no one knew who was there.
I am the dividing line
When the protagonist woke up, he was lying in a dark underground nest, with a soft silk bed underneath him.
He only felt weak and sore all over.
"Fortunately, I didn't die or be reborn!" The protagonist managed to lift his right forelimb, confirming that he was still in the body of an ant and convinced that he was not dead yet.
Soon, a worker ant came to the protagonist. It was a big-headed ant worker that the protagonist was familiar with. It had the unique aura of the Angel King's army and the aura of the nest.
It seems that I am in there.
The protagonist was a little surprised, and ignored the pain in his body. He reluctantly turned around, grimacing in pain, and simply lay down on the silk bed.
It was clear that his troops could not withstand the Destroyer's counterattack and retreated from the ground. There are reinforcements from the Destroyer coming. How did you get in here?
The protagonist asked the worker ants to call the male ants in charge here. Soon, the commanders of the 19th Legion, the 21st Legion and the ruling male ants came hand in hand.
The protagonist only understood the whole story after communicating with the three male ants.
It turns out that after the protagonist fell into coma, the 19th Legion and the 20th Legion immediately retreated according to the protagonist's order. However, due to the haste of the incident and the lack of experience of the two legions in battle, the retreat turned into a rout. The 20th legion was located far behind and suffered heavy losses. Even the legion commander died during the retreat.
The 19th Legion defended the protagonist to escape, threw away the pursuers, and wanted to retreat to the camp. However, the scouts in the picture found that they were very close to the Destroyer troops returning south from the grove, and the 19th Legion could only avoid them to the west.
Then the 19th Legion hid nearby until evening, when the 19th Legion met the messenger sent and learned that the Destroyer had withdrawn from there, so it followed the messenger back to Li.
At the same time, the 21st Army Corps also arrived, and the remnants of the 20th Army Corps were also gathered up.
The 22nd and 23rd legions were still stationed in the camp. Although they received reports from the messenger, they did not move the camp because there was no order from the protagonist.
The protagonist was silent for a while. Last night, the 24th Army Corps was almost completely wiped out and had to be rebuilt. Today, the 20th Army Corps suffered heavy losses and reconstruction was inevitable. Almost half of the six legions led by the protagonist were lost in just two days.
Even if the Destroyer retreats and his rescue plan is considered a success, the protagonist cannot be happy.
It was already late at night, and the protagonist overcame his discomfort and issued a series of orders: sending a messenger overnight to move the two legions in the camp.
He designated a squad commander who performed well in the daytime battle as the new commander of the 20th Army, and asked him to lead his troops back to rebuild the Army early tomorrow morning.
Then the protagonist ate some honeydew dried meat and slept to replenish his energy.
