The weird thing is!
These ants raised their abdomens high, showed off their stingers, and opened their jaws. They were always showing off their power in front of the formation, but they did not come up to attack.
Previously, when they met each other and found that the opponent's ants were numerous, the young male ants had already sent two worker ants to run back to find reinforcements.
The abdominal ants that were attacking with great momentum did not care about the two escaped worker ants. They gathered in a group not far in front of the defense line of the Angel King's army, baring their teeth and claws, but they refused to fight!
An idea flashed in the young male ant's head - maybe the opponent doesn't really want to fight! Just want to force your side to retreat?
Although the ant world is filled with all kinds of wars, large and small, some wars have profound reasons, such as interests, territorial disputes, or decades of feuds; some wars have no reason and are just a matter of chance. If you don't like them, fight them to death.
In the past, when they were in their homeland, the Big-headed Ant Kingdom and later the Divine Envoy King Army were at constant war with the Pavement Ants.
Facing some indigenous ants in other directions, such as the hunter ants in the southern hills, they get along relatively peacefully and rarely infringe on each other's territory.
Sometimes we accidentally cross the line, and the other party's night market drives us away in this way. There are less times when we make a big fuss. After all, it is not good for both parties.
The young male ant commander felt that he seemed to have grasped the opponent's intentions. He did not want a meaningless battle to break out. He also knew that the ants in [Xinyang City] were insufficient. Moreover, the mission of his team was to forage, not to fight.
Although the protagonist has given orders before, try to eliminate all enemies who know the existence of the Divine Envoy King's Legion, and prevent the existence of [New Yangcheng] and the Divine Envoy King's Legion from being exposed prematurely.
"But this time there are so many ants on the opposite side, why are they beyond my ability to eliminate them as much as possible!" The male ant thought in his mind.
So why not retreat temporarily? The young male ants use their antennae to contact nearby ants, and then they pass the information to other nearby ants.
Then, led by the young male ants, they faced the enemy, slowly retreated, and left a short distance away.
Every time the warrior of the God's Envoy King took a step back, the ants took a step forward, but always maintained a distance of about half a decimeter.
The young male ant felt at ease. He felt that he had really seen through the opponent's intentions. The opponent did not want a useless battle to break out. As long as he slowly withdraws from the enemy's sphere of influence, it would be fine.
He is also proud of his quick wit. Since the arrival of the great Divine Messenger King, the Divine Messenger King has been preaching the importance of wisdom to male ants. Those male ants that are smarter in certain aspects can always get his reward. Praise and being rewarded with delicious food can also lead to faster promotion.
When I go back this time, will I also be promoted by the God Envoy King?
But the young and inexperienced male ant didn't know that he had made a mistake!
All creatures bully the weak and fear the strong!
It is said that if you encounter a bear, the best way is not to turn around and run away, which will make the bear think you are scared and will be regarded as prey by the bear; you cannot stare at it and slowly back away, as staring at it will make the bear feel provoked.
One way is to try to make yourself look as tall as possible, such as standing on tiptoes and raising your hands, or holding something on your head, trying to make yourself taller than the bear, so that it will retreat in spite of the difficulties.
The worst. . . You can also die with some dignity. . . Chasing literature
Not just bears, many animals have this instinct to bully the weak and fear the strong.
Although the young male ant did not run away with his subordinates, his active retreat still made the ants feel that the ants in front of them were weak and could be bullied.
After "forced back" the warriors of the God Envoy King by about half a meter, the ants suddenly started to attack.
They suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the position of the God's Envoy King's warriors. When they were about to make contact, these belly-lifting ants raised their abdomens even more, stuck out their butts, and sprayed out streams of acid.
On flat ground, the range of these acids is not very far, only a few centimeters.
But they concentrated their fire, and the three warriors of the God Envoy King at the front were baptized by the acid, and they immediately rolled over in pain.
Fortunately, the soft beach quickly absorbed most of the acid on the tumbling ants. Except for one soldier whose compound eye was severely injured, the other two soldier ants were not seriously injured.
After a round of acid shots, the belly-lifting ants immediately swarmed up, trying to break through the formation of the God Envoy King's warriors through the opened gap.
The young commander was in the center of the position and was not doused with acid. Seeing the sudden outbreak of the battle, although he was shocked, he still instinctively gave the order to fight back.
Without his order, the ant warriors in front had already spontaneously fought back.
Although the attacking ants had an advantage in number, they used acid attacks to catch the warriors of the God Envoy King by surprise. But in hand-to-hand combat, these belly-lifting ants appear vulnerable.
They were too small, only comparable to the worker ants of Big-headed ants. Facing the burly Big-headed ant soldiers, they were inferior in size and strength.
Although the mandibles of the ant are very dexterous due to their structure, a pair of small hooks are like nimble fingers, able to find what they need from the messiest pile of sand.
But such jaws are not suitable for fighting. Really ferocious ants usually have sharp sickle-shaped jaws, serrated jaws, or jaws as thick as a vise.
On the other hand, on the Angel King's legion, the soldier ant warriors are all equipped with copper jaw knives, and most of the worker ants who support the battle are also equipped with gravel jaw knives. Only a few of the new generation worker ants born in [New Yang City] are not equipped with weapons. .
Although several ant warriors from the Divine Envoy King's legion lost their battle line, they still formed a team of two or three and skillfully cooperated with each other to fight.
The defensive warrior blocks the jaws or stings of other enemies, and covers the attacking warrior to attack suddenly and bite off the enemy's head in one bite.
The reinforcements of worker ants also blocked the outflanking enemies from both sides, creating opportunities for the main force of soldier ants.
A small battle was extremely fierce. Many of the soldiers of the God Envoy King were killed from the sea of blood. Some veterans even had two years of military service. They had participated in the civil war of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom and had also participated in An even more brutal battle against the Destroyer.
Compared with the previous enemies, these belly-lifting ants are simply weak and pitiful.
In just the time it took for the ants to eat a meal, the more numerous and aggressive ants were all killed.
As a nearby search team foraging for food heard the news and came to support, the warriors of the God's Envoy King launched a counterattack. Not only did they defeat the enemy in front of them, they also bravely attacked the enemy's large force that had not taken any action.
If you offend the Legion of God's Envoy King, you will suffer the wrath of revenge!
