Lord Highlander

The group of stone pillars on the mountain that was detonated was more than 100 meters long, and the collapse of the mountain wall happened to bury the ant queen and a group of male ant guards hanging far behind under the rocks.

The flow of rocks separated most of the ghost-striped red ants that were chasing after them.

There are only more than 200 ghost pattern soldier ants left in the chaotic stream, still biting the back of Suldak's group persistently.

Suldak, Aphrodite, Samira, Gulitham, and Andrew were at the front, leading a group of veterans to rely on the complex terrain of the mountain wall. They first attacked the four giant ghost-patterned soldiers and ants headed by them. After killing them, there are more than two hundred ordinary ghost-striped red ants left, which are not a big threat in front of everyone.

The battle continued until noon, and more than two hundred ghost pattern soldier ants were slaughtered by Suldak and his team.

Among them, the two-headed ogre slaughtered nearly half of the ghost-striped soldier ants. Due to the strong suppression at the level of strength, the two-headed ogre can almost smash a ghost-striped soldier ant with the "thunderbolt combo" The head of the Ghost Pattern Soldier Ant died miserably, smashed to pieces, the scene was almost horrible.

If it weren't for the precious magic cores in the skulls of these ghost-pattern soldier ants, and the hard armor of the soldier ants is also valuable, Suldak might have lost a lot this time.

Once Gulitum's ferocity erupted during the battle, no one else could stop the two-headed ogre.

Suldak felt that Gulitum and his brother, the ogre mage, were still in the initial break-in period, and fighting would help the two of them become more tacit.

However, how to transport the corpses of these soldier ants back to Dodan Town is a big problem. In the end, Suldak could only temporarily decide to pile up all the corpses of the ghost-pattern soldier ants, and first put the magic core and the intact soldier ants together. With the head taken away, the hard armor can only be piled here temporarily, and these materials can be transported back when there is a chance.

The crowd fought on the mountainside on the east side of the canyon, but it did not cause the ant colony in the canyon to continue their pursuit.

Sammy stood on the top of a sloping stone pillar and looked down the mountain.

Pointing to the other side of the chaotic rock flow, she said to Suldak, "Boss, the last ant queen is evacuating to the north of the canyon with her bodyguard and ant colony. What should we do?"

Suldak saw that the red ants in the canyon fell into a state of chaos. Obviously, the third queen was crushed by the rocks, and the large number of red ants gathered in the middle of the canyon lost their ruler.

The fourth queen ant is timid and fearful, probably because she is not strong enough, and even has the least number of male ant guards.

When it realized that the three ghost ant queens of the alliance were dying one after another, it was so frightened that it immediately retreated. It led all the guards to retreat to the north of the canyon, and gave up on the expansion of the territory from the Dodan canyon to the south over the north city wall. plan.

The fourth queen ant obviously didn't have the ability to rule the entire ant colony. Except for a group of male ant guards, only more than 10,000 ghost-striped red ants were affected by it and returned north together.

There are still a lot of ghost-striped red ants scattered in the canyon. There are at least tens of thousands of them in the middle of the canyon. However, most of these ghost-striped red ants are workers with little strength. Say, not even one out of ten.

As for the giant ghost pattern soldier ants, they are even rarer.

However, there are still a large group of ghost-striped red ants gathering around the rocky stream, and Suldak gave up the bold idea of ​​returning to the rocky stream to find the queen's corpse.

Although this group of first-turn veterans have God's blessings on them, after all, they have experienced a day and night of high-intensity fighting. Worried that their bodies were overdrawn, Suldak decided to continue walking south along the east mountain wall. Man finally returned to the town of Dodan before the sun went down.

At the moment when the sun set, the shadow of the mountains enveloped the Dodan Valley again. Selina, who had been in a coma for nearly a day, lay on Suldak's back and slowly opened her eyes.

...

The guards of the city defense stood at the top of the city. Seeing that Suldak and his party returned safely, they immediately burst into cheers and kept waving the flag of the Luthor Legion.

The guards cleared out the city gate, and as the heavy iron fence at the main gate slowly rose, the passage of the city gate opened, and the smell of blood and rot filled the entire passage. Suldak and his party came in.

The guards sang triumphant songs of triumph at the sight of the party returning to Dodan almost intact.

Aphrodite had already passed through the void gate and returned to the lava mine in Pustule Mountain.

Selena just woke up and twisted her body slightly on Suldak's back, and Suldak felt it immediately.

Surrounded by a group of people, he quickly carried Selena into the small building where the barracks was stationed.

Nika and Signa were waiting at the side of the small building. Seeing that Selena was carried back by Suldak, Nika turned pale with fright, and tears kept rolling from his cheeks like broken beads. When she got down, she couldn't stop it no matter what, and she didn't dare to cry, so she could only cover her mouth with one hand, staggered behind Suldak, and helped support Selena's leg .

Although Selena's complexion was bad, she was still conscious, and she said to Nika weakly, "Nica, why are you crying! Am I fine?"

Nika nodded vigorously, but the tears just couldn't stop.

Signa looked very calm as she followed, but her little face was also tense, and she remained silent all the time.

Suldak let Selena lie flat on the bed, the neckline of the black devil robe was slightly opened, a hollow crescent moon tattoo appeared on the fair skin on the chest, and the hook under the crescent moon extended to Selena's right The top of the breast is extremely delicate.

Signa has already brought a bowl of hot soup, which has a strong meat flavor, and feeds Selena spoonful by spoonful.

After drinking something, Selena looked much better.

At this moment, Suldak sat by the bed and asked, "What happened?"

Selena was lying on the big soft bed. This was Suldak's bedroom, not a guest room that was reduced to a treatment room.

She reached out and rubbed her forehead, squinting her lake-blue eyes, which were as magnificent as gemstones.

With rippling eyes in his faint smile, he calmly said to Suldak: "When I helped you last night, I asked the goddess to lower down a bit of divine sense, and with the understanding of the law of darkness with divine sense, I temporarily possessed the body of darkness." .”

The body of darkness is a kind of body of elements. With the body of darkness, the body can accept the dark elements from the outside world.

Selena glanced at Nika, and pulled Signa to her side.

The soft candlelight in the room exudes a kind of warmth, and the surroundings are very quiet.

Selena continued: "It's just that my body's affinity for the dark elements is not enough after all. The dark body relies entirely on the understanding of the law of darkness by that shred of divine sense. To maintain the dark fog, I need to use my body." The body extracts a large amount of dark elements from the outside world."

"These dark elements are not like the other four elements of water, fire, earth, and wind."

"The four elements make up the whole world. They will exist in a state of titanium in our world."

"But elements such as dark elements and holy light elements exist in another form, just like night and day."

"The dark elements will be extra powerful at night, but these dark elements are not as pure as the titanium body."

"The law in the dark world always follows the law of the jungle. I mixed a dark nightmare into the dark elements I extracted from the dark world."

"It is a parasite in the form of darkness. It originally wandered in the dark world and devoured other weak dark creatures. I didn't expect it to be forcibly absorbed by the magic pattern circle, and my body is much weaker than it. She is good at creating dreams. In the In its dreamland, it is almost invincible, even if I have a trace of Goddess' divine sense."

"She pulled me into the dream, so I had a long dream..."

Selena's voice is soft, as if telling a story.

Suldak held Selena's slender white hand, and asked curiously: "Then how did you defeat that dark nightmare?"

Selena smiled, held Suldak's hand behind her back and said: "I just remember that I was about to be unable to hold on, and suddenly I heard a stern voice from outside. With the last moment of sobriety, Divine Sense will My dream was also pulled in for fusion, and she probably knew that she couldn't occupy my body, so she left quickly."

Suldak didn't expect it to be like this. Thinking of Aphrodite walking into the Void Gate, the eyes under the mithril mask were still so flat, as if he had done some insignificant things, and the succubus looked lazy all the time Man, with a charming and evil smile, but he could only bite the bullet and say to Selena: "I'm afraid you have to thank Aphrodite for this..."

"She is helping me!" Selena was also a little surprised.

Aphrodite was the most unusual of the four followers around Suldak.

In particular, her identity is sensitive, she can't show her true colors, and she can only hide in the dark at ordinary times, but it makes Selena fall into some thoughts.

After Selena fell asleep, Suldak left the small building.

The half-elf archer immediately followed behind him. She had a faint scent of soap locust on her body, and her broken hair was still a little wet. The salamander leather armor had also been carefully scrubbed, at least there was no sour smell on it. The painting of withering is a hunting bow, a pot of arrows is hung on the waist, and it swings when walking, which sets off the slender figure and becomes very enchanting.

Samira has established prestige in the garrison camp by virtue of her excellent bow skills.

Along the way, the soldiers in the camp saluted the two of them one after another.

Seeing that everything was normal in the camp, Suldak led Sammy up to the north city wall. Adams and Gallatin had been guarding the front of the city for a day and a night. When they came out, it seemed that they took advantage of the fact that there was no fighting at the top of the city in the afternoon, so they each slept in the marching tent for a while.

The setting sun had almost fallen into the mountains, and the canyon was completely dark.

At this time in the past, the ant colony had already begun to overwhelm the territory, but tonight there was no movement. The scorched earth under the city wall was covered with stumps and broken legs of ghost-striped red ants, but there were no ghost-striped red ants to be seen.

The fire wall in front of the city wall has been broken in several places, and the city guard applied to Adams to receive a few barrels of kerosene to re-ignite the extinguished section of the fire wall.

However, Suldak waved his hand at the city guard and said to the city guard: "The ghost-striped red ants will most likely not come to attack the city tonight. It doesn't matter even if the fire wall under the city wall goes out. Collect the magic cores in the ashes!"

The guard of the city defense looked happy, gave a military salute and ran away.

It didn't take long for the news to spread across the city, and the tense city guards relaxed.

The ghost-striped red ants in the canyon turned into a mess of loose sand. Even if some ghost-striped red ants wanted to attack the city, they would not pose any threat to the north city wall.

Adams and Gallatin accompanied Suldak to inspect the city wall. Suldak just ordered the city guards to collect the giant crossbow bolts on the mountain walls on both sides of the city wall.

The mountain walls on both sides have been shot into tatters, and some giant crossbow bolts are still stuck with the corpses of ghost pattern soldiers. At night, under the light of the fire, the mountain walls on both sides are as terrifying as hell, and it is easy to scare yourself. Own.

The cleaned ghost pattern soldier ants can also be soaked in the pit.

...

At this time, there was a neighing of war horses under the north city wall.

Suldak looked down from the city wall, only to find Andrew running out of the garrison camp with a cavalry battalion.

A ready-to-go cavalry was waiting below the city, and there was also that big man in the team—the ogre Gullitum.

Andrew climbed up to the top of the city in two steps in three steps, found Suldak on the wall, and shouted: "Report..."

Andrew was unwilling to give up the corpses of more than 200 ghost-striped soldier ants piled up on the mountain wall, so he went back to the garrison camp and discussed with his eight squadron leaders. Come back, no matter what, these Warcraft materials are also a fortune. Since everyone has earned merit points, it is necessary to transport this wealth back.

Now Andrew climbed up the city wall and applied to Suldak to lead the cavalry across the night to bring back the monster materials.

Suldak thought for a while and agreed.

As the iron fence of the city gate was hoisted again, a group of cavalry entered the Dodan Canyon in a mighty manner, followed by fifty four-wheeled carriages behind the cavalry.

After receiving this news, the mercenary union couldn't sit still anymore.

When the city gate was opened a few times ago, the courageous mercenaries ran outside the city and basically made a lot of money. This time, the president of the mercenary union did not want to miss such an opportunity, so he hurriedly chased after the city defense brigade On the side of the material warehouse, I applied to Suldak, who was checking the depletion of the military supplies in the material warehouse, hoping that the mercenary group could also take this opportunity to go hunting in the city.

In view of the recent strong support of the mercenary group for the defense of the northern city wall, Suldak agreed to the application made by the president of the mercenary union.

Although at night, the town of Dodan becomes extremely lively.

Teams of mercenaries quickly organized, walked through the alleys of the town, and gathered under the north wall. Everyone was checking the equipment they were carrying, and they were extremely excited.

Not long after that, these mercenaries disappeared into the night outside the north city wall.
