Lord Highlander

  Chapter 807 796. Ant nest in the temple

  The wounded have to make some preparations before entering the treatment room.

  When these things are in the military camp in Dodan Town, usually Nika will come to help.

  Now Suldak can only find two smarter veterans.

   Even so, the entire front-end processing process is very rough.

  The wounded who were sent to the treatment room were basically stripped of their leather armor and the linen shirt inside with a knife, turning them into useless pieces of cloth to expose the bleeding wounds.

  Those wounds torn by the forceps of the ghost-striped red ant, the outer skin is turned over to reveal the torn tendons and fascia inside.

   Or simply **** bone stubble sticking out of the skin, making it very bloody.

  In order to pursue efficiency, Suldak let the two wounded enter the temporary treatment room at the same time.

After Suldak offered a head sacrifice to the sacrificial altar, he could get the blessing of the "Divine Blessed Body" twice. If he had a broken bone, he would directly connect the broken bones, and then clamp them with wooden boards to fix them. If the wound is too long, it must be sutured with cotton thread.

   Busy until the early hours of the morning, all the wounded soldiers were considered to have been dealt with.

  …

  The cavalrymen of the three cavalry battalions only took a short rest, and carried various supplies to the city wall at the pass, replacing the veterans who were still fighting above, and everyone had to take turns to rest.

  The fighting in the square has basically subsided.

   Occasionally, a few ghost-striped red ants will come out of the houses, and the archers guarding the exit will deal with them as soon as possible.

  Some ghost-patterned soldiers ants escaped the arrows and rushed to the square, only then did the cavalry come out to deal with them.

The two commanders, Intas and Hampton, never rested. After they finished handling the affairs in the cavalry battalion, they led a group of cavalrymen who only had time to catch their breath to go deep into the town of Plantos. After all, this border town is only It took less than three days to be captured by ghost-striped red ants. Although there were no survivors, not even corpses, on the city walls and streets of the pass, everyone believed that there might be some survivors who survived in this small town.

  The two commanders, Intas and Hampton, cleaned up the streets of Prantos Town one by one.

But the result was not ideal. These ghost-striped red ants are born to be good at digging holes. After searching and rescued many houses, they only found **** basements. In addition to the blood stains on the walls and floors, even small animals such as cats, dogs and poultry No beast could be found.

   Unexpectedly, in just two days, the ghost-striped red ants had already plundered all the edible things in the town.

   Busy for most of the night, until dawn, most of the town had been cleared out by the cavalry, and even a single survivor was not found.

  The ghost-striped red ants in the town were also driven to the southwest corner of the town by the cavalry.

   But what everyone didn't expect was that even though these ghost-striped red ants were retreating steadily, they did not completely evacuate the town of Plantos.

  …

  There are still a large number of ghost-printed red ants gathered on the northern pass mountain road.

  In the case of a fire burning below the city, they did not give up taking turns to attack the entire town.

After fighting fiercely for a day and a night, Andrew finally couldn't bear it any longer, so he set up a marching tent on the arrow tower at the top of the city. He didn't even take off the magic pattern structure on his body, and fell directly into the tent Sleep soundly.

  Samila sat on the wall of the watchtower, she seemed to be in good spirits, and she didn't look like someone who hadn't closed her eyes all day and night.

  After dawn, the number of ghost-striped red ants swarming up the mountain road on the north side of the pass decreased a lot.

  Last night, Gallatin took a squadron of cavalry and spent the night resting in a tent.

  In the early morning, he got up early and led the team of cavalry to the wall of the pass to take over the defense here.

  The veterans began to clean up the battlefield at the top of the city, throwing the useless ghost-striped red ants outside the city wall one by one, and filling them into the fire as fuel.

  Occasionally, there would be a buzzing of bed crossbow strings on the top of the city. The crossbowmen didn't need to consider saving giant crossbow bolts for Prantos Town, and frequently used these bed crossbows to shoot and kill ghost pattern soldiers ants crawling from the mountain wall.

  Suldak was about to walk down the city wall when he saw the captain of the third squadron running up the steps, standing in front of him and reporting:

   "Boss, Commander Intas and Commander Hampton, please find time to go there!"

   "How is their search and rescue going?" Suldak only had time to pay attention to this matter at this time.

  The third squadron leader sighed, and said depressedly: "Everything is going well, but no survivors have been found. Those red ants almost dug out the basement of the entire town. No one can hide in the basement and survive..."

   "So...they came to me at this time and found something?" Suldak walked down the city wall first.

  A group of cavalry carrying huge crossbow bolts passed by them.

The leader of the third squadron came over and whispered to Suldak: "We found a temple in the town. A group of red ants guarded there. They fought all morning and failed to take it down. I heard that there are giant ghost-striped red ants hiding there." In the crypt..."

  Suldak walked down the city wall, and there were cavalry below who had prepared their horses.

   "What's the news from Chester Great Swordsman?" Suldak mounted his horse and turned his head to ask.

"Legion leader wiped out an ant colony and an ant queen last night, and intercepted the other two ant colonies returning to the south of Prantos Town. These two ant colonies have retreated this morning. We have arrived at the southern suburb of Prantos Town." The third squadron leader rode on his horse and followed behind Suldak.

Walking through the dilapidated streets of Plantos Town, Suldak found that Plantos Town was larger than Dodan Town. In addition to the cross-shaped main street, there were several criss-cross lanes in the town. There are some shops, and there is a temple in the south of the town.

  Suldak rode to the outside of the temple. The whole temple was surrounded by a group of cavalry, and there were sounds of fighting inside.

  The corpses of dozens of ghost-patterned soldier ants were scattered all over the gate of the temple. Suldak rode in on horseback, and the cavalry guarding both sides of the gate saluted Suldak one after another.

  This temple is a bit dilapidated, the ground is covered with a thick layer of plasma, and even has a strong sour smell.

  The yard was crowded with cavalry, and some wounded cavalry withdrew from it, and immediately there were cavalry waiting to make up for it.

  Passing through the vestibule of the church, the courtyard is full of corpses of ghost-striped red ants, and a group of cavalry are waiting in line to enter the temple. The battle is in the backyard of the temple.

  Suldak walked all the way, and the cavalry saluted and moved out of the way.

There is a basement in the backyard of the temple, or it can also be used as a dungeon, but this temple has been abandoned for a long time, and the entire backyard is overgrown with weeds. A team of cavalry surrounds the entire backyard of the temple, and there are many red ghosts lying in the courtyard. Ant corpses filled the yard with a strong sour smell.

  Suldak walked in, and saw a giant ghost pattern soldier ant stretched out half of its body from the exit of the basement under the wall of the main building, fighting with several cavalrymen.

  Intas and Commander Hampton were standing at the door of the backyard, talking in low voices.

   "What happened here?" Suldak walked over and asked.

  He knew that it was impossible for Intas to call him over from the pass wall just because of such a giant ghost pattern soldier ant.

   "There are a lot of ghost-striped red ants coming out continuously, and we guess this is where they store their food!" Intas turned and explained to Suldak, pointing to a corner of the backyard after speaking.

  Suldak glanced at it casually, and saw the pile of mucus-covered and incompletely digested human bones...

   "Just now we killed a very strange ghost-striped red ant, and these came out of its stomach." Hampton covered his mouth with one hand, his face a little ugly.

  The cavalry in front had stabbed the giant ghost-patterned soldier ant with cuts and bruises, but unfortunately it still refused to come out of the cave and refused to retreat.

  Until Suldak rushed up and chopped off its head with a sword, a group of cavalry dragged its body up from the hole together, revealing a dark hole from under it...
