This is a squirming and growing honeycomb tissue, with mucus mixed with sewage dripping, flesh and blood mixed with dirt and mud. It is the ugliness of the world, a collection of imaginary nastiness, and evil that should not exist in a beautiful world. Delusion.
The translucent oblong objects, like lotus seeds falling from the lotus pod, broke away from the bloody and dirty honeycomb tissue of the "orange crab" and fell on the equally dirty ground. These are cocoons!
These translucent oblong cocoons look like eggs and pupae, with black individuals struggling inside, roughly like ghosts.
Soon, the black bodies inside most of the cocoons quickly broke through the tough translucent cocoon shell and got out. The soft bodies that had been soaked in cocoon liquid for a long time quickly hardened in the wind, and each dark-colored insect with a ferocious appearance gradually took shape. !
These people who emerged from the cocoon are...
Destroyer!
From this point of view, the Destroyer, which looks similar to an ant, is not a real ant! They don’t have a queen or king, and they don’t go through the complete metamorphosis of eggs, pupae, and adults! They emerge directly from the cocoons that fell from the ugly collective body of the "Orange Crab"!
The "Orange Crab" itself is constantly devouring the ant corpses carried by adult destroyers to obtain the material and energy to create destroyers! Even the few Destroyer individuals who are unable to break free from the constraints of the cocoon will be mercilessly thrown back into the umbilical cord-like channel of the "Orange Crab" by those of the same kind who have just broken out of the cocoon once their struggle weakens, where they will be quickly dissolved and absorbed.
This is the birth of the Destroyers, and what they do is so ugly to the extreme, filthy to the extreme, and dirty to the extreme!
————
In the Thin-footed Ant Kingdom, neither Zhu Jue nor the Thin-footed Ant Clan or the Honeypot Ant Clan knew that such an abominable and despicable existence as the "Orange Crab" was gradually approaching and destroying more and more people. The person also came closer.
After the heavy rain, the local battlefield fell into a short period of calm. There is generally less rain this year, especially after the beginning of spring. The short period of heavy rainfall at the turn of spring and summer cannot change the drought situation.
After the stagnant water was quickly absorbed by the thirsty earth, the world returned to a state of wind and dust and loess, and there was no large-scale outbreak of post-flood diseases that Zhu Jue was worried about.
After rushing to repair the fortress, restocking food, and receiving a new batch of artillery shells and weapons from the Ant Alliance, the combat effectiveness of Zhu Jue's patchwork civilized ant coalition has roughly returned to what it was before the heavy rain. .
Zhu Jue got some bad news from the south from the flying transport team: the last heavy rain also affected the territory of the Ant Alliance. A large number of nests that were not high enough were flooded, and hundreds of thousands of dead ant colonies were counted. Moreover, industries in some important nests have also been affected. For example, the mines in [Hematie City] were flooded, and iron ore could not be mined for more than ten days before the water receded; metallurgical bases such as [Xinyang City] began to run out of ores, and at the same time Some blast furnaces had water intrusion and had to wait for complete drying before they could be put into use. Steel production dropped significantly; other workshops in various industries also suffered more or less losses and were gradually being restored and reconstructed after the disaster.
When Zhu Jue was stationed in the territory of the Thin Foot Ant Nation, he revised a new war preparation plan for the Ant Alliance based on the current detected enemy situation of the Destroyer, and it has just been sent back to the country. Now it seems that the war preparation plan has been delayed by heavy rain. It will take at least a month to complete.
Zhu Jue couldn't blame God or the gods. The weather was fair to both sides. It only depended on which side could handle it well and restore order.
But obviously, there is no production system and they rely on the Destroyers who rely on war to support war. Their post-disaster recovery is obviously faster than that of the civilized ants.
Zhu Jue urged his soldiers day and night to renovate and strengthen the three fortresses [West Stone Fort] [East Stone Fort] and [Hou Stone Fort]. However, they were only about to be completed before the Destroyer struck again!
The forward troops of this group of incoming Destroyers are only about four to five thousand, which is not a large number. The troops are mainly "standard" Destroyers. Judging from the investigation situation, this group is obviously the Destroyers who were defeated before, and they are mixed. A cobbled together force of Destroyers who were not dispatched last time.
However, Zhu Jue felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, because the flying knights reported that an army of about 40,000 to 50,000 Destroyers suddenly appeared from nowhere after heavy rain in the north. Among them were a large number of alien Destroyers with terrifying combat capabilities. At this time, we are only 3 days away from [West Stone Castle]! This is the biggest threat!
On June 2, the Destroyer forwards arrived outside [West Stone Castle]. Instead of rushing to attack the city, they began to build some simple underground lair camps. Judging from the large number of entrances and exits, this camp is quite large. It is obviously designed to accommodate the army from afar. These nests are very close to [Western Stone Fort], and the nearest hole can even be shot by a peanut ballistae.
Naturally, Zhu Jue could not sit back and watch this group of destroyers build a camp under his compound eyes. He ordered the ballistae troops to attack, but only a few peanut ballistae could cover this distance, facing the strong underground lair and running around. The Destroyer's damage effect is poor.
Zhu Jue immediately sent out a mobile force to attack. This mobile force was planning to return to [Hou Shi Bao] today, and they would be horns with [Xi Shi Bao] when facing the army of destroyers.
Now, before returning to the division, this force was ordered to take down the Destroyer's forward troops and the newly built camp.
The Destroyers were not many in number. Seeing the coalition of civilized ants coming to attack them, they attacked desperately at first. However, they were lured into the range of the ballistae. After suffering heavy losses after being bombarded, they were immediately killed by the coalition of civilized ants who took advantage of the situation. of great defeat.
The remaining Destroyers hid in a partially completed underground camp. The civilized ant coalition tried to launch an attack, but the Destroyer's advantage was too great in the street fighting and the offensive was frustrated.
Seeing that the Destroyer army was about to arrive in two days, Zhu Jue ordered the attacking troops to destroy the Destroyer camp within one day and annihilate this enemy force.
Just at noon that day, reinforcements from the Thin-footed Ant Nation arrived. This batch of reinforcements consists of approximately 50,000 thin-footed ant warriors. They received an urgent military message from Zhu Jue after the rain. After learning that a large group of Destroyers was approaching the northern border, since the Western Destroyers had not yet made any move, they gathered from The elites drawn from the main force of the Thin-footed Ant Army marched for two days to arrive at [West Stone Castle].
With the support of this new force, Zhu Jue greatly increased his troops and took the opportunity to launch a series of fierce attacks on the Destroyer camp, conquering the remaining underground strongholds controlled by the Destroyer bit by bit.
At the same time, in order to deal with the Destroyer who finally resisted, Zhu Jue used his big killer weapon in advance!
