The only way for these wounded soldiers to recover as soon as possible is for all wounded fighters to be given the blessing of God with the 'Divine Blessed Body'.

Anyway, hundreds of crates of those Moonblade Fire Wolf heads have been hoarded, and it doesn't feel bad to use up some of them now.

Suldak walked out of the small building, resisting the dizziness, and stood with his hands on the wooden railing with his eyes closed for a while before he felt refreshed.

"Commander Suldak, the corpses of ghost-pattern soldier ants piled up outside the barracks are already stinking, what should we do with them? Should we throw them into the fire wall outside the city and burn them?" said a city guard. The captain came over and saluted Surdak before asking.

Suldak patted his forehead, only to realize that the beast tide had been going on for two days, and he had no time to deal with the corpses of these ghost-patterned soldier ants.

"Let's go together, I just wanted to go and see..." Suldak said to the city defense squadron leader.

The squadron leader was slightly taken aback, and immediately led the way.

Walking out of the barracks, the place where the corpses of ghost-striped soldier ants are piled up is not far from the north city wall. Although the number of ghost-striped soldier ants was not large when they attacked the city, after two days of accumulation, the corpses of these ghost-striped soldier ants are almost gone. Filled the pit.

A sour smell filled the surroundings of the pit.

In order to prevent the acid in the corpse from flowing everywhere, Suldak asked someone to dig a large pit with a diameter of more than ten meters in the open space behind the north city wall.

The ghost-patterned soldier ants thrown from the city wall will be carried to the leatherworker first, and the head of the soldier ant will be cut off and the magic core inside will be taken out, and then the corpse of the soldier ant will be thrown here.

At this moment, it was already filled with the corpses of ghost pattern soldier ants.

What Suldak didn't expect was that a large amount of acid liquid emerged from the corpse of the ghost-striped soldier ants. These acid liquids may have dissolved the flesh and blood in the ghost-striped soldier ants, diluting more acid with an extremely foul smell, almost All the ghost pattern soldier ants were soaked in the blood water.

The acid has completely dissolved the protein in the body of the soldier ants. It is estimated that these ghost-striped soldier ants can no longer become delicious food.

Surdak covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, stood by the edge of the big pit, suppressed the feeling of vomiting, and poked the corpse of the ghost soldier ant in the acid with a wooden stick. Now, many ghost pattern soldier ants seem to have only some hard shells left, soaked in the pit.

Originally, he wanted to peel the skin himself, but now he doesn't seem to need it anymore.

Pulling the city guard squadron leader a little farther, he happened to see a temporary work shed built under the city wall. The town's leather maker and four young men were working together to decapitate a ghost pattern soldier ant.

Suldak walked over with the captain of the city defense army, and Suldak asked the leatherworker named Maren: "Boss Maren, look... the hard skins of those ghost-striped soldiers over there Can it be cooked further?"

The leathermaker named Mullen stopped the handaxe in his hand, bowed to Suldak, lowered his head and said respectfully: "Report to Commander Suldak, the hard skins of those ghost-patterned soldiers have already disappeared. Soaked in acid, it gradually melted away, and even if it still has some use value, it’s not worth much.”

"It is estimated that only some businessmen who make saddle covers are willing to buy some." The owner of the leather shop, Mu Lun, said with his head down.

When he spoke, he never met Suldak's eyes.

It made Suldak feel a little strange...

Chapter 764 The New Ant Queen

Seeing Suldak leave, a shop clerk with a rusty single-edged ax in his hand immediately went to the side of the leather craftsman Ma Lun, and asked him in a low voice:

"Brother-in-law, have you talked with Commander Suldak? Has he let go?"

The expression on his face showed no respect for the boss.

Boss Mullen didn't seem to care about this at all, and muttered in a low voice with a gloomy expression:

"No, Commander Suldak seems to be very interested in those hard armors. I don't think we should hide this matter. How can we hide this kind of thing! He will know sooner or later."

The shop clerk smiled, with a sly look in his eyes, and said to Boss Mullen: "Brother-in-law, as long as this matter can be successful, you can take the whole family and leave this ghost place ahead of time. Find a good relationship with the Noctia leather shop in Wilkes City. At that time, in addition to getting a considerable amount of gold coins, you can also work in the largest leather shop in Wilkes City, which is better than opening a leather shop yourself. It’s better to be stronger if you can’t make money all day long!”

"The hard carapaces of ghost-striped soldier ants have been soaked in the acid pool for enough time, and if they are dragged down, those hard carapaces will really melt away." Boss Mullen touched the hard skin on the chopping board with his hands. , said with some concern: "At that time... I think this business may really be ruined."

The store clerk's face turned a little ugly in an instant, he wiped his hands immediately, nailed the one-handed ax to a wooden stake beside him, and said decisively: "I'll go find my friend in the city defense brigade..."

Boss Mullen hesitated to speak: "..."

……

Leaving the work shed, Suldak originally planned to inspect the city wall, but he always felt that something was wrong, so he put on a cotton mask to prevent the inhalation of volcanic ash in the barren land, and walked back to the place where the ghost pattern soldier ants were piled up. Pit.

Not too far from here, a group of migrant workers are digging a second large pit.

After the first pit is full, the ghost pattern soldier ants transported from the shed will be thrown into the second pit. Among the migrant workers, Suldak saw many aborigines.

Aung San was also among them. It seemed that he was a small foreman in charge of communication and management. He was holding a pickaxe in his hand and was surrounding the area of ​​the pit.

Standing on the edge of the pit, the soldiers following Surdak all covered their mouths and noses.

No one could stand the pungent, pungent stench.

Suldak picked up a two-meter-long wooden stick next to the pit, and poked the floating ghost-striped soldier ant in the acid pool. Some viscous liquid dripped out of the ghost-striped soldier ant's hard shell. , like some melted cream, very disgusting.

He stood beside the pit in silence, and the soldiers behind him did not dare to leave without authorization.

On the corridor not far away, soldiers kept throwing the headless corpses of ghost pattern soldier ants into the pit.

Some air bubbles emerged from the central part of the pit.

In the viscous liquid, after these bubbles come out, they will all stand against a large semicircle.

Until the semicircular bubbles burst open, making a series of waves.

Some air bubbles actually pushed up the hard carapace of ghost-striped red ants floating in the center of the pit, opening and closing continuously on the surface of the pool...

Suldak discovered something that he hadn't noticed before, the hard shells of the ghost-striped soldier ants in the center of the pit that had soaked in the acid pool for too long had turned limp.

The wooden stick in his hand couldn't reach the hard shell of the ghost-patterned soldier ants in the center of the pit. The ghost-patterned soldier ants at the edge were all thrown in not long ago. He poked hard, except for the flesh and blood in the shell melted, The carapace covered with spikes is still very hard.

He asked the soldiers around him to find five-meter-long knight spears, and picked up a soft shell of ghost-striped soldier ants in the middle of the pit filled with sour liquid.

The ghost-patterned soldier ant carapace hung on the tip of the spear, like a piece of dark green kelp dripping with seawater.

After the soldiers picked the piece of carapace out of the pit, Suerdak asked someone to bring two buckets of clean water to rinse the sour liquid on it.

He intends to use the eyes of reality to see what kind of changes have taken place in the hard carapace of this ghost-patterned soldier ant.

But it looks pretty bad now, because the soldier holding the knight's spear has poked a big hole in the hard shell of the ghost pattern soldier ant. This hard shell should lose its original toughness...

……

Suldak was about to study the hard armor further, when he saw two merchants with thick scarves on their heads and a few attendants walking to the side of the pit from a distance, carefully inspecting the ground. The situation in the pit.

Putting down the wooden stick in his hand, he stepped on the soft and rotten carapace of the ghost pattern soldier ant, and walked towards the merchants.

"You want to buy these ghost pattern soldier ant hard armor?" Suldak stared at the two merchants.

The two businessmen hid their faces in their scarves and shook their heads repeatedly. One of the businessmen explained to Suldak: "This kind of hard armor leather has no market. It is better to buy some magic cores. We are not going to buy them."

Seeing that the two businessmen denied it categorically, Suldak did not continue to ask further questions.

He nodded and said:

"The arrows and kerosene gaps on the garrison's side are relatively large now, so you merchants need to raise more arrows from the surrounding towns of Wilkes City. Of course, if you can find kerosene and fire scale bombs, That's even better."

"The garrison can use the Warcraft materials in the warehouse to exchange for arrows, and we will guarantee you enough profit margins."

Hearing what Suldak said, the businessman immediately promised:

"We will try our best to mobilize some urgently needed military supplies. There are more than a dozen workshops around Wilkes City that specialize in making arrows. Now we have sent people to make bulk purchases..."

Before the businessman could finish speaking, he saw a city guard running over, gave a military salute to Suldak, and hurriedly said:

"Commander, Captain Andrew has made a new discovery on the city wall! If you have time, you'd better go there."

Suldak looked up at the city wall and found that there was no melee in the city. He relaxed a little and responded, "I'll go there right away."

The two businessmen still wanted to continue their talks with Suldak, but unexpectedly, Suldak hastily climbed to the top of the city.

The two businessmen walked out of the pit of sour liquid with a few followers and came to the gate of the city defense brigade.

Nearly ten businessmen gathered at the gate of the brigade, and everyone got into a magic caravan.

The eyes of all the merchants fell on the two merchants, and one of the merchants with a gray beard asked worriedly, "Have you seen Commander Suldak?"

The two businessmen nodded silently, and the atmosphere in the carriage was somewhat dull.

The gray-bearded businessman asked the two businessmen, "Have you reached a conclusion?"

One of the businessmen shook his head in frustration, and said helplessly:

"Before we talked any further, people went to the city to deal with things."

Another businessman also asked: "President, is there any progress on Ms. Selena's side?"

The grey-bearded businessman sighed, and said, "Here, we simply interrupted the negotiation of the ghost pattern soldier ants, and only sold the primary monster leather in the warehouse, and they still don't have heads!"

Other businessmen sitting in the magic caravan also began to discuss:

"This business is really tortuous."

"If you want me to say, it's better to just say it out. If we keep it secret, even if we have made this big deal, we have dug a piece of meat out of someone's mouth, and in the end we will completely offend this Commander."

"That's right, I heard that the background of this Commander is not simple."

"It is estimated that the Lord Commander Suldak must have been aware of it, so he decisively stopped the trade of ghost pattern soldiers here."

"There should be no problem. Baron Josh Golding of the trading house has a very deep conflict with the Commander. We have communicated with him in advance, and he should not tell this matter. Isn't it the same during a beast tide?"

"Hey, you didn't see how many headless ghost-striped soldier ants are installed in the pit. As long as this order is made, we can take the business group to the southern town to do business, as long as we wait four weeks In [-], once the defense is changed, there will be a new military and political officer in this town."

"..."

……

Suldak climbed the wall.

Andrew stood behind the wall, enduring the steaming heat wave below the city, looking at the open space in the canyon outside the city, shaving the stubble on his face with his fingers, with a dignified expression.

The outside of the northern city wall was almost full of ghost-striped red ants, and a flint thrown from a catapult would kill a large number of ghost-striped worker ants.

On both sides of the city wall, there are still countless ghost pattern worker ants swarming up. The heavy armored infantrymen on the city wall are holding tower shields, and behind them is a row of heavy armored infantrymen holding Paglio spears. They stab the spears in their hands through the shields. The main attacker will stab the spear through the chin of the ghost-striped soldier ants to seal the mouth of the ghost-striped soldier ants to prevent them from spitting. Let it get stuck in the gap between the soldier ant's head and chest, and then there will be a knife and axe to behead it.

The main attacking spearmen and axemen are all veterans in the team with first-rank strength, only they can pierce the hard armor of ghost pattern soldiers cleanly.

And those ghost-pattern worker ants in large numbers were shot down from the mountain wall by the city guards on the city wall with a crossbow before they even climbed to the top of the city...

It fell to the pile of smoky corpses at the foot of the mountain with a crackling sound.

This kind of city defense battle, the heavy armored infantry and the city defense guards have been able to do it very proficiently. Even if there are some mistakes in a certain link, they will know how to make up for it later.

The ghost-patterned red ants attacked again and were repelled.

Enduring the heat wave, Suldak stood next to Andrew and looked out from the gap between the wall stacks.

Andrew pointed his finger into the canyon. In mid-air, nearly 800 meters away from the northern city wall, there was a huge red ant covered in red blood. Visually, this red ant with wings was about the size of an adult ice-horned rhinoceros. .

Just below its body, surrounded by hundreds of ghost-striped red ants, these ghost-striped red ants are several times taller than other ghost-striped red ants, and even one ant leg reaches the length of a worker ant. They look like Tank, surrounded by that queen ant.

Many ghost-patterned soldier ants surround the left and right, and the outermost circle is the ghost-patterned worker ants. At a glance, it is clear that they are of different ranks.

Andrew licked his lips and said, "This big fly was discovered this morning. It has been suspended in the midair of the valley. Do you feel it..."

"Is it the sense of oppression on the high-level beast?" Suldak said.

"Well, I guess the monster that can oppress us should be at least a third-tier monster." Andrew said, his eyes were fixed on the big fly.

Suldak leaned his back against the wall to avoid the heat wave coming up from below the city wall, and said, "This big winged fly should be their new queen, and it's also the kind of queen that hasn't finished mating."

"How do you know it's an unmated queen?" Andrew asked in surprise.

Suldak chuckled, and said, "When the new ant queen finds a safe habitat, builds a brand new ant nest, and finishes mating, her wings will fall off on her own."

"Really?" Andrew asked even more surprised.

"Of course, those under it should be a group of ghost-striped drones, and they are probably the personal guards of this new ant queen." Suldak said firmly: "Look at how bright red its body is."

After Suldak finished speaking, Andrew actually poked his head out to take a look.

"After it arrived in Dodan Canyon, the ghost-striped red ants here became much more orderly. Although the two sides of the city wall are so stable now, I think they are paralyzing us!"

After Andrew finished speaking, he took Suldak to the corpse of a huge ghost-striped soldier ant more than four meters long. Deeper, some raised stripes with different bumps appeared on the carapace, and the sharpest points of these stripes have a series of blunt spines.

The dark red carapace on his body also appeared harder, with three giant crossbow bolts stuck on his back and one on his head.

"At that time, a total of eight bed crossbows shot at it, and four of the giant crossbows hit it but were blocked by the armor...Look here, here, here...oh, and here." Andrew appeared on the ghost pattern soldier ant. Point out the cracks one by one to Suldak.

The giant crossbow arrows in these places failed to penetrate the solid armor, but cracked the solid armor.

Andrew pulled out the four giant crossbow arrows stuck in the ghost pattern soldier ant, raised his head and asked Suldak:

"The strength of this ghost soldier ant has reached the level of a second-level monster. Do you want to see what's in its skull?"

Surdak nodded.

Without saying a word, he used the butcher's sharp ax in his hand to split the dark red head of the ghost pattern soldier ant with huge pincers, and immediately the city's head was splashed with juice, and a demon the size of a baby's fist was buried in the light green brain flower. nuclear.

Andrew held the magic core in his hand and weighed it before saying:

"Such a big magic core is a second-level monster. That's right. This kind of ghost-patterned soldier ant is much stronger than ordinary soldier ants. It seems that we have to be careful. It's okay to say during the day. Once we are crawled by this kind of soldier ants at night Come up, it will probably be troublesome.”
