The next experiment, and the most important experiment, is to test the effect of the "y3-4 (b5bs)" agent on the living destroyer. If the experiment confirms that this is indeed the case, then the ant civilization will have an effective weapon against the Destroyer for the first time. If this weapon can be copied, then the Destroyer will no longer be able to become a crisis of destruction!
The difficulty of this experiment is how to capture the living Destroyer. With the Destroyer's strength and style, it is much more difficult to get one alive than to kill them. What's more, Destroyers are not that easy to kill. Destroyers who gather in crowds are difficult to defeat, and the whereabouts of a small team of Destroyers are unpredictable. What's more, all Destroyers would rather die than surrender...
After Zhu Jue learned about it, all he could think of was that he could only find lone Destroyers or small teams to attack, use preparedness as unprepared, win with more enemies and fewer enemies, win through ambush, and find ways to eliminate some of the Destroyers. Only with the ability of resistance can it be possible to capture the target alive.
Therefore, despite the large group of Destroyers outside the Nuclear God's Cave, they cannot be provoked. There is no way to capture them alive from the thousands of troops and successfully take them away.
After Zhu Jue pondered, he handed over this task to the Nuclear God Pavement Ant guerrillas in the original Pao Dao Ant Empire, and provided a high reward to the team that provided effective information or could directly complete the task.
The local guerrillas are led by the Nuclear God Pavement Ant Nobles who are loyal to the Divine Messenger King sent by the Ant Alliance. The Ant Alliance supplies and rewards some necessary materials to suppress these military leaders who may have a tendency to go alone because of their independent actions. Currently, these guerrillas are generally quite obedient, and the Ant Alliance's influence over the area has been maintained.
A weak baron took the lead in providing useful information. Zhu Jue immediately and generously gave his troops 36 sets of iron armor and jaw knives specially customized for pavement ant warriors, as well as honeydew, dried meat, and fire bombs by air. Slings and other rewards aroused the envy of other military leaders who knew about it, and also inspired struggles among teams in the guerrilla zone.
The information provided by the Baron is valuable, and even Zhu Jue did not understand it before: the Destroyers also need water.
Zhu Jue has never noticed that the Destroyer has eaten. Even if it is a million-scale battle, the Destroyer does not have any worries about logistical support. The army is not restricted wherever it goes. This is also a component of the Destroyer's super strategic strength. After all, if any unit can get rid of logistical constraints, its combat effectiveness will be greatly increased. However, the ant civilization must be subject to logistical transportation, especially the Legion of God's Envoy King, which relies heavily on firepower.
The baron's information was discovered accidentally: once he went out to lead troops in battle, but was defeated. He fled to the lair in a hurry with only two guards, preparing to pack up his troops and make a comeback again. However, due to being chased in a panic and taking the wrong route, he could only spend the night hiding in a rock crevice in a depression.
As a result, as soon as it dawned the next day and they were about to set off, they found a small group of more than a dozen Destroyers very close outside, and their ferocious faces could be clearly seen with the naked eye. The Baron was too frightened to move, but fortunately the Destroyers didn't notice. They concentrated on licking the dew on the stones and grass blades in the morning, and then left.
When Zhu Jue heard this, he was thoughtful. In the past, the Ant Alliance relied too much on flying knights for their investigations, and flying knights had requirements for light, temperature, etc. when dispatching. They basically did not dispatch in the early morning, so they were never aware of this secret.
This time the Baron made a great contribution. However, the other party did not report this information immediately, and did not reveal it until there was a reward this time. This situation is probably not just a problem for him as a noble, but also shows that there are indeed some things in the guerrilla zone army that he cannot control. Zhu The prince wrote it down silently.

Three days later, the Dragonfly Troop carried a small team of 50 elite warriors to the Baron-controlled area, preparing to capture the "Destroyer" alive. This small team was actually led by a big-headed Ant God Male Ant, who had the same characteristics as the Divine Envoy King. The golden carapace showed the majesty of the "god descendant" and convinced the baron.
In addition, there will be 12 flying knights in the air to assist in the operation, and the baron will also bring hundreds of soldiers under his command to help.
In the past few days, the Baron has found out where the nearby Destroyers usually drink water. Just like many animals drink water at fixed places, the Destroyer is no exception. It is the depression where the Baron hid last time.
In the middle of the night that day, the belated moon had just risen high in the sky, and the moonlight was bright. The ambush troops quietly entered the position, while carefully erasing all traces and smells of their existence.
Two hours later, when the east was white and the moon was still high, the Destroyer indeed appeared.
Only 7 Destroyers came to drink water today. Intelligence showed that the Destroyers did not need to drink water every day, so they came in turns. However, the camp of the large army of Destroyers is not far away. It is a force with more than 50 Destroyers, and it cannot be defeated by an ambush force.
After the opponent started drinking water, his vigilance dropped. The commander of the male ant who was commanding from a tree in the distance had sharp eyes and could clearly see every move of the target. At this time, he ordered the flying knight around him to take action.
The "buzzing" sound of flying did not alert the Destroyer at first, after all, flying insects can be found everywhere. But when the Flying Knight got closer and closer, some Destroyers still looked up warily, showing great vigilance.
But they had no time to react. The flying knight immediately raised its altitude after swooping down, hurriedly avoiding something. As several bombs were dropped, puffs of pungent smoke rose up, and the Destroyers inside struggled for a moment before falling one after another.
These are white-flowered pyrethrum powders from the Eastern Highlands, supplied by the Governor of the East, which have a lethal, stupefying effect on ants and destroyers. This time, several bombs had reduced dosages and were specifically used to capture living destroyers.
After the morning wind blew away the poisonous smoke, the baron and his men cautiously approached, while the male ants led their troops behind.
Seeing that the Destroyer was motionless, the Baron, who was afraid of the sluggishness at first, finally plucked up the courage to step forward and probed with his tentacles. The powder remaining on the Destroyer's carapace made his tentacles feel a little numb, but the Destroyer was really unconscious. . Although the dosage of the drug was reduced, and although the destroyers were more resistant to poisons than ordinary ants, they were still attacked without any precautions!
The baron and his party bit off all the joints and limbs of the three Destroyers that were in good condition, stuffed beeswax into their mouths, tied ropes to their jaws, and carried them back tied up. The other four Destroyers either died from the powder, or were seriously poisoned and were simply killed.
The male god ant immediately ordered the dragonfly transport troops on standby in the rear to deliver the three precious living experimental materials to the Nuclear God Cave.
