Time passed quietly, and when more than 10 male and female ant eggs hatched, the troops training in Pioneer City gradually became effective, and the turbid current of Qinghe River continued to weaken.
Whether it is the parasites on the north bank of Black Creek or the civilized ant coalition on the south bank of Black Creek, they already know that the next battle is not too far away.
Many commanders of the civilized ant tribe who left the front line returned to the Black Creek defense line one after another. After Zhu Jue also visited the "Lucky" larvae of the divine female ant that had grown to a relatively large size, he rode his mount back to the eastern fortress group to take charge.
At this time, although the water surface of Black Creek is still very yellow and muddy, there are signs that the flood has receded. On the rocks in the stream, there are circles of yellow mud at the bottom, which are the souvenirs left on the rocks after the water surface dropped. What was once turbulent gradually calmed down and became clear. When the most iconic reef group is completely exposed, it will mark the end of the flood season.
When the floods were flooding, the civilized ant coalition was not idle. They had been mobilizing troops and hoarding supplies to prepare for the upcoming decisive battle. The parasites were never idle again. Although there were always flying knights to harass them, the parasites still tried their best to infect most of the creatures in a large area nearby.
Many insects that had just emerged from pupae were deprived of their independent consciousness by parasitic bacteria. Some remote indigenous ant tribes that had escaped disaster before could not escape their bad luck this time. From the direction where the parasitic army appeared, there were also several batches of small and medium-sized reinforcements. Arriving gradually.
Today, except for the air power, the parasitic army has not yet returned to its previous size. The ground and water forces are even stronger than when they were at their strongest before. They are still a strong enemy of the civilized ant coalition.
But Zhu Jue is not too worried. The bottom line and ceiling of the civilized ant tribe's combat effectiveness all depend on the performance of the God Envoy King's army. Now the south bank of the Black River has accumulated a large amount of supplies and ammunition. Artillery and other long-range firepower have absolute advantages over the God's Envoy King. The legion can exert its strongest fighting power!
Moreover, the black fire ant kingdom that has moved south has gradually returned to normal and can begin to provide more military support. The leaf cutter ant kingdom is also willing to provide more food and materials after the arrival of external reinforcements in order to regain its lost territory as soon as possible. Other civilized ants also provided additional reinforcements via airlift.
In the colony of the Stone Desert Camponotus ant empire, all the ant eggs they brought had already hatched and broken into pupae. The three queen ants had sufficient food supply. With the help of dozens of worker ants, they successively laid as many as 2,000 eggs. eggs and take good care of them.
Although the troops of the Stone Desert Campoback Ant Empire could not keep up with this battle, and the "Sun God Artifact" they boasted has not yet arrived, it did bring great confidence to the civilized ant coalition forces - the most powerful civilized ants One of the clan is supporting us, so what should we be afraid of! ?
————
This year's flood season is not short. At the end of the flood season, the coalition forces of two other powerful civilized ant tribes from outside the area also joined forces at the end of July!
It was first when the Flying Knights discovered a swarm of dozens of huge locusts on the north bank of the Qinghe River in the western border of the Ant Alliance, flying westward along the north bank.
Flying Knights are generally reluctant to provoke swarms of locusts, but these locusts obviously have ant creations on their bodies, such as ant silk cocoons on their backs or abdomens.
The flying knights went to investigate and found that they were allies of the civilized ant tribe outside the area. After some contacts and in accordance with their requirements, they guided the migratory locust swarm to the border of the leaf-cutting ant country, and then the star longhorns of the leaf-cutting ant tribe The knight was led to the main nest [Holy Tree City].
For the civilized ants outside the area, the guardians of the sacred tree in the area are the ones to deal with. But this place is quite special. The leafcutter ants quickly persuaded the bullet ants and thieve ants who came to help to divert to the Black Creek front line, handing over the reinforcements and troublesome foreign allies to the supreme commander of this war. Go to reception.
Zhu Jue had already received his report and received the reinforcements outside the eastern fortress group.
At that time, 36 migratory locusts swooped down, vibrating the air with menacing sounds, and suddenly drowned out the noise of hundreds of flying knights patrolling the sky.
When these migratory locusts landed, Zhu Jue confirmed that these migratory locusts were very big, two or three sizes larger than the migratory locusts currently used by the Ant Alliance, and they were truly giant locusts.
On the abdomen of the leading giant migratory locust, a hole opened in a cocoon of ant silk - this hole existed before, but was just sealed from the inside.
A huge but familiar-looking ant emerged. It was a bullet ant. It was the same clan as the bullet ants inherited from the jaw god and poison god in this area.
A total of 6 bullet ants emerged from the cocoon on the abdomen of this locust.
The female bullet ant commanders in the coalition emerged from the crowd and communicated with the leading female bullet ant "Doctor" with black spots like "glasses" on her compound eyes.
Zhu Jue was a little unhappy. He was the supreme commander of the civilized ant alliance, but the bullet ant commander under his command ran out first to say hello to his relatives who had come from afar. Maybe they had no other intentions in their simple minds, but Zhu Jue still I feel that my control over these allies is too weak.
The two female bullet ants were intimate with each other and ignored Zhu Jue who was waiting aside. After a while, the "female doctor" came to another locust and used her huge jaws to tear open the ant silk cocoon. Many small black spots popped out of it, and it was difficult to see what they were.
The "female doctor" then approached Zhu Jue.
Zhu Jue knew that reinforcements from two powerful civilized ant tribes had arrived this time, but the specific situation was unclear. He was bored just now and didn't pay attention to the Bullet Ants' actions.
Zhu Jue was still wondering why the commander of the bullet ants came over. But when the other party came closer, Zhu Jue suddenly discovered that on the head of the female bullet ant "Doctor", there was a very mini ant with a body length of only 0.5mm lying on it.
The "female doctor" came to Zhu Jue, lowered her head, and stretched out a pair of huge tentacles to show her intention to communicate. And the little male thief ant also stretched out its pair of tentacles, but it didn't even go beyond the bullet ant's head.
Zhu Jue was stunned, but fortunately he realized quickly. He couldn't communicate with two ants with huge size differences at the same time, so he first gently touched the tentacles of the female bullet ant "Doctor Female" to express welcome.
Then, he carefully touched the thief ant's tentacles with his tentacles, fearing that if he accidentally swung his tentacles, the ant would be thrown away.
Unexpectedly, the male thief ant seemed to be very dissatisfied with this. An emotion mixed with resistance, dissatisfaction, and a faint hint of madness came out, followed by meaningful information, which roughly means:
"Country ants, we, the thieves of the ant clan, are strong and not fragile, so there is no need for you to be so cautious!"
