Zhu Jue initially thought that this rescue would be difficult. The Destroyer had no air force and lacked air defense means. The flying knights of the God's Envoy King's Legion had unimpeded access in the air. They had flown back and forth to this lair last time.
Just one more flight and the mission can be completed! ?
But things didn't work out.
At that time, Zhu Jue dispatched three teams of nine flying knights to the destination to perform the mission. One of the teams landed and was responsible for bringing out the ant eggs. The other two teams have been hovering in the air to warn.
The plan was still very thorough, but there were still flaws.
When the landing team failed to come out from the ground with the golden eggs, the warning team discovered that hundreds of Destroyers of various shapes were heading towards the nest, and hurriedly sent messengers to land and call the police.
Afterwards, the flying knights who landed with empty jaws hurried out, picked up their mounts, and wanted to rush into the sky before the destroyers surrounded the entrance and exit of the lair.
Unexpectedly, several Destroyers quickly rushed to the entrance of the lair.
One of the Destroyers had a huge belly. When they saw the flying knights filing out, they opened their jaws and shot out a white sword like a rainbow across the sun.
It was a sticky thread, like spider silk, but thicker, heavier, and softer. I saw the sticky thread shooting straight and quickly towards the nearest flying knight. The reconnaissance flying knight did not react, but the fly mount under his crotch had keen vision and quick reactions. With a flutter of its wings and a tilt of its body, it easily avoided the sticky threads.
Just when the several reconnaissance flying knights had already lifted up to a certain height and thought they could escape, a gust of breeze blew.
The Bai Lian from the mouth of the big-bellied Destroyer was still spitting out, swaying in the wind, being stretched longer and thinner, like a twisting worm growing into the sky.
The movement of the sticky thread swaying in the wind was unpredictable. A flying knight was accidentally stuck. The sticky thread was extremely sticky and he was immediately unable to escape. He struggled and fell to the ground.
The other Flying Knights could only watch helplessly as the Big Belly Destroyer slowly retracted the sticky silk, and aggressively drove away the other types of Destroyers that rushed up. Finally, he stepped forward and killed the stuck Flying Knight and his mount with his big jaws.
The other flying knights did not hesitate and quickly returned to the south of the stone crevice. The journey was uneventful and they were able to report to Zhu Jue.
Only then did Zhu Jue know that the reason why they failed to bring back the golden eggs was because the honeypot ants in the nest refused to hand over the golden eggs to the flying knight alone, saying that the golden eggs were noble and must be accompanied by honeypot ants to protect them. How can a few "low-status" big-headed ant workers (the honeypot ants don't know the difference between the big-headed ant class and the ordinary worker ant class in the Ant Alliance) be taken away directly.
The flying knights negotiated for a long time, but the other party remained unmoved, causing the opportunity to be wasted and the life of a flying knight to be lost.
Zhu Jue was so angry that he laughed, and immediately asked the honeypot ant royal family for the crime. The Honeypot Ant Royal Family felt that what they did was right, but they still had to count on Zhu Jue to help.
In the end, both sides took a step back. Zhu Jue promised that the team to rescue and protect the golden eggs would be led by noble male ants, and the royal family of honeypot ants would also issue an order information package to the local kin, allowing the golden eggs to be unconditionally captured by the God Envoy King. Take away the Legion.
Zhu Jue then began to plan the second rescue operation. But it had already been delayed for a day, and the situation on the ground had deteriorated.
There are currently about 200 Destroyers surrounding this nest. Although there are not many troops, it is not something that honeypot ants with weak field combat capabilities can break through.
The honeypot ant clan organized a commando team composed of thousands of honeypot ant warriors on their own, and launched an assault after the flying knight returned, trying to cover the escape of the golden eggs. As a result, in the field, facing the nearly invincible Destroyer, this group of honeypot ants collapsed at the first touch. The casualties were not very large, but they gave up the idea of breaking out and stayed in the nest, only counting on the royal family and reinforcements to save the golden eggs.
Fortunately, the terrain of this nest is relatively hidden and complex. The honeypot ant warriors in the nest are still very motivated to protect the golden eggs, and they rely on the favorable location to wait for help. The Destroyers don't know the significance of this lair and the golden eggs inside. They don't have many troops and their attacks are not resolute, so they can't capture it yet.
However, the remaining domestic resistance of honeypot ants is getting weaker and weaker. A nearby large nest has been alerted several times a day and is about to be destroyed. Once the Destroyer army moves to surround the lair where the Golden Egg is located, it will be extremely dangerous.
Zhu Jue realized that he must rescue the golden eggs within a day or two, otherwise he would completely lose the opportunity.
At this time, the Destroyers had controlled the only entrance and exit of the lair, and the flying knights could not land directly into the lair, so Zhu Jue decided to send ground troops.
The ground rescue force should not be too large. At this time, the Destroyers are fighting in various places, trying their best to suppress the remaining forces of honeypot ants that are resisting everywhere. With the guidance of the Flying Knight, a small ground force can flexibly pass through the cracks of various destroyers and quickly reach the destination not far from the stone cracks. If everything goes well, they can return on the same day.
And if a large army spreads out, it will be impossible to avoid the eyes and ears of the Destroyer. In particular, the Flying Knights discovered that there was a Radar Destroyer among the main force of Destroyers. Relying on the guidance of the Radar Destroyer, the main Destroyer force had discovered and besieged the stronghold with the largest number of honeypot ant defenders, and would definitely find the gods coming to help in large numbers. Envoy King's Legion.
In the end, Zhu Jue decided to send a team of Fly Tiger Knights as a rescue team, commanded by himself. Zhu Jue rarely gets involved in danger these days, but this time he decided to go into battle personally after careful consideration.
The speed of the Fly Tiger Knights, coupled with the early warning of the Flying Knights, is enough to easily pass through the crowd of thousands of troops and easily escape the pursuit. However, the Fly Tiger Knight's attack ability is weak. Once it reaches its destination, it fails to break through the Destroyer's defense line in time and goes underground to retrieve the golden eggs. No matter how strong the mobility is, it is in vain.
However, the tank troops of the Divine Envoy Army, which are best at attacking tough targets, are unable to reach the Thousand Foot Ant Kingdom via long-distance air transport. The ground forces Zhu Jue has are infantry besides fly-tiger knights, and the mobility of the infantry makes it impossible to complete the rescue mission. Zhu Jue could only hope that his "god from heaven" would work wonders in overcoming difficulties.
Fortunately, there were only about 200 Destroyers surrounding the destination lair, and they were scattered. As long as they were not entangled and fought quickly, with Zhu Jue's combat power of one thousand, the danger was not great.
Knowing that Zhu Jue, the supreme commander of the civilized ant alliance, would personally go into battle to save the golden eggs, the royal family of the honeypot ant king was extremely moved. Several queen ants, dragging their belly that had exited the reproductive mode but was still relatively bloated, hurriedly came to express their gratitude in person.
The military leaders of the Xizuzijieyi Kingdom also sincerely expressed their admiration to Zhu Jue.
These are an unexpected surprise!
