  Chapter 840 829. Cavalry Battalion on Hilly Mountains

   A group of people stepped on the horseshoe marks along the horses of the cavalry battalion Gu Bolai, and marched towards the depths of the hills and mountains.

   In the distance, sporadic ghost-striped red ants can be seen infesting the hills and mountains. Many mercenary groups came to the wild to hunt these lonely ghost-striped red ants.

  Since the two ore veins given to Suldak by the Marquis Luther are both on the east side of the Invercargill Forest, the cavalry battalion rushed out of the north exit of the Dodan Canyon, and also chose to rush northeast of the hills.

   This time the cavalry battalion dispatched troops to the hilly and mountainous areas, whether it was Andrew or Samira, they were holding their breath in their hearts.

   Last time, the ghost pattern soldier ants almost ate up the cavalry battalion.

  Although Suldak retaliated against the ant colony afterwards and successfully killed the ghost-striped ant queen, he still didn't get rid of the depression in their hearts.

  So this time the cavalry battalion went very deep in the hills and mountains, just to chase the larger circle of ant colonies in the hills and mountains.

   There are some huge thunder rhinoceros footprints along the way, guiding everyone in the right direction very clearly. Suldak is not worried about going wrong, as long as he is careful of the ghost-striped red ants that are watching from a distance.

  During the journey, Suldak discovered that due to the delay in getting through the Thorny Mountains, most of the red ants in the ant colony seemed a little restless.

  The ghost-striped red ants also need a leader who can lead them out of the thorny mountains.

  The ghost ant queens who have been able to survive in the hills and mountains until now will not recklessly go into the Dodan Canyon to die. They want to bypass the thorny mountains, so they can only detour towards the east and west sides.

  Dodan Canyon is in the middle of the Thorny Mountains, and the ant colony here has begun to drop significantly.

  There are traces of battles everywhere on the hillside.

  The green vegetation on the hilly ground was almost completely destroyed by the red ants, exposing patches of red soil, and these red ants eat almost everything.

  Suldak rode a war horse, and always accompanied Hathaway and Beatrice, chatting with them from time to time.

  Clouds are piled up on the horizon like undulating mountains, and there will be some birds circling back and forth in the sky from time to time.

   Hathaway and Beatrice rode side by side. The two hadn't left the city of Bena for a long time, and they were naturally yearning for the vast world outside.

  Blue sky and white clouds, hills and mountains.

   Looking further north is Invercargill Forest.

  The group of people didn't walk too fast. Occasionally, some ghost pattern worker ants appeared, and they were shot and killed by the archers in the team before they could get close.

  Sharp arrows can easily pierce the hard armor of worker ants.

   Along the way, I almost never met ghost pattern soldier ants.

  Lily Cecil was riding a maroon ancient Bolai horse. Her leather armor had a very high waist, which almost pushed all the excess flesh from her abdomen to her chest.

  Although this kind of leather armor is very delicate, it is not very practical.

Lily came up from behind on horseback, first quietly listening to Suldak and Hathaway talking about the indigenous tribes in this area, and patiently waiting for Suldak to finish talking about this topic before interjecting to Suldak and asking : "Baron Suldak, I think... since you can give the magic pattern structure as a reward to the cavalry, why don't you wear one yourself?"

  Suldak turned around, smiled politely at Lily and said, "Mrs. Cecil, because my body has a carrying capacity, it is not enough to wear a set of primary magicweave structures for the time being."

  Lily was a little surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Aren't you a first-time knight?"

   "I am indeed a first-turn knight, but due to some injuries before, I have not been able to restore the bearing capacity to the original level." Suldak explained.

  Lily spread her hands and said, "That's a pity. I heard that the strength of the knight will change qualitatively after wearing the magic pattern structure."

  Suldak didn't say any more, but turned to Beatrice and said with a smile: "I came here a few times before, and I didn't notice how beautiful the scenery here is."

   Beatrice squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly. Her face was a bit round, so she looked sensual.

  Pointing to a group of mercenaries not far away, he asked Suldak, "Where do those mercenary groups want to go?"

  At this time, the team just turned around a hilly hill, and Suldak discovered that there were actually several mercenary regiments ahead of them, also advancing along Lei Tingxi's footprints.

Suldak said: "The mercenary group that is willing to come here is actually to hunt ghost pattern soldier ants. As long as they can kill some soldier ants, there is a great chance to get magic spar. Such hunting The activity is sure to make money.”

"A lot of mercenary groups, they are walking the same road as us..." Beatrice exclaimed, and then pointed to a large group of ants moving eastward on a hilly slope, and looked at Su Er nervously. Duck: "Look, there are ant colonies over there..."

   At this time, the front cavalry stopped.

  A cavalryman rode quickly to Suldak and reported to Suldak that the road ahead was blocked by an ant colony.

  Suldak pondered for a moment, then ordered:

   "Then let's go around, until we meet with the cavalry battalion, we will try to avoid touching the ant colony for the time being..."

  The team went until noon, and after avoiding four ant colonies, they finally arrived at the hunting ground of the cavalry battalion.

   Looking around, there are a total of 500 cavalrymen in the cavalry battalion running around the ant colony. They are like ferocious sharks surrounding the fish school. They will kill a few ghost pattern soldier ants in the outer circle of the ant colony if they have the opportunity.

Looking south along the **** on the north side of the hill, there are corpses of ghostly worker ants everywhere along the way. The worker ants in the ant colony seem to have been almost killed by the cavalry, and only some soldier ants were forced by the cavalry battalion. Frequent defeat.

  They have lost the courage to take the initiative to attack.

In fact, these ghost-striped soldier ants are not afraid of death. The main thing is that the ghost-striped ant queen who controls the ant colony is worried that once the soldier ants are mobilized to fight the cavalry head-on, Andrew and Gulitum will lead the elite cavalry to surprise the ghost-striped ants. Ant's bodyguard.

   Moreover, there are two Thunder Rhinoceros with ten bed crossbows on their backs threatening in the distance, and this ghostly ant queen always gathers the ant colony together densely.

In this way, the ghost ant queen will not be threatened for the time being, and the ant colony is moving towards the northern Invercargill Forest little by little, but the soldier ants at the edge of the ant colony are decapitated in the raids of the cavalry .

  The corpses of these soldier ants are often gathered in a pile and marked, and then thrown on the side of the road, waiting for the thunder rhinoceros caravan to return, and transport the hard armor of these soldier ants along the way back to Dodan Town.

  …

  Samera stood on the platform of Lei Tingxi, the first to see Suldak's group coming from a distance, and waved towards them.

  The Great Swordsmen of Chester are using a lot of combat methods of the cavalry battalion. Apart from the fact that there are many mercenary groups watching around the battlefield, there is nothing special about it.

   But these are just staring at the ant colony. They didn't participate in the battle, they just quietly waited for the ghost pattern soldier ants to escape from the ant colony, and then surrounded them to hunt and kill them.

  The Great Swordsman Chester also found that although the number of cavalry in the cavalry battalion was limited, these cavalry, led by two generals, attacked the ant colony time and time again, and almost every time they burst out with the greatest impact.

  These cavalrymen cooperated very well. The knight spears in their hands almost never stabbed in the air. Even if the stabbed parts were not fatal, they would not fight around the ant colony.

   And once the knight's spear cannot be drawn out, he will decisively give up.

   On the other hand, those ghost pattern soldiers ants only had time to spray some acid in the face of the cavalry's charge.

  The cavalry were wearing heavy armor, and the horses were also tightly wrapped in armor...

  Amidst the dust, the cavalry leaped past.

  Many soldier ants were beaten and maimed in this way, and fell behind the ant colony helplessly, and were surrounded and killed by cavalry.

The most eye-catching existence in the team, besides the two thunder rhinos like hills, is the two-headed ogre brother holding a bone-crushing club. The blue ice armor is hung outside the mail armor, chasing after the ant colony In the back, the big bone-crushing stick in his hand ignored the hard armor of the ghost-pattern soldier ant at all, and a huge depression would appear when it was knocked on it.

  Once the ghost-patterned soldier ants turned their heads to confront the two-headed ogre, the ogre did not resist, and immediately turned around and ran back.

   Once these soldier ants are chased out, they will be rushed to death by the cavalry immediately.

When these ghost-striped soldiers returned to the ant colony, he chased after them and stuck to the tail of the ant colony, but the big stick was very lethal, and while pulling it back and forth, the ghost-striped soldier ants fell on the battlefield unconsciously .

  The great swordsman Chester could tell at a glance that this was completely crushing at the level of strength.

  Armed Thunder Rhino behind him was advancing slowly. Samira and Lance stood on the backs of two Thunder Rhinos respectively. Once a giant ghost-patterned soldier ant rushed out of the ant colony, they would immediately shoot and kill them mercilessly.

   Occasionally, some fireballs will fly out, blasting the dense ant colony from it.

  First of all, I noticed Andrew, this native warrior had successfully advanced to the rank two powerhouse in Prantos Town, and Chester Great Swordsman was very impressed with him.

Then he saw the archer Samira standing on the back of Thunder Rhino. Judging from Chester's many years of experience as a great swordsman, this archer can actually add wind to the arrows he shoots, and he has obviously broken through the second round .

  The great swordsman Chester discovered at this time that there were actually two second-rank strongmen and a double-headed ogre in Suldak's cavalry battalion, which was a bit scary.

   What's even more outrageous is that there is also a squad of mages mixed in the cavalry battalion.

   Thought it was the Marquis Luther's private funding.

  I thought to myself: Marquis Luther really loves this Baron of Suldak. In addition to marrying his beloved daughter to him, he also helps him...even his own son is not an exaggeration.

  …

  Suldak brought the team together with the cavalry battalion.

  Chester discovered one thing, Hathaway was not familiar with these two second-rank powerhouses at all, and the two second-rank powerhouses and the two-headed ogre obviously had no respect for Hathaway.

  These three powerhouses and the magicians from Hailansa City can still chat together.

  The Great Swordsman Chester guessed that they all came from Hailansa City with Suldak.

   And just half a month ago, none of Suldak's side had advanced yet.

   In such a short period of time, the barriers were continuously broken through, and some people became second-rank powerhouses in succession.

  In addition to personal strength, you have to go through high-intensity battles.

   Watching Suldak lead Hathaway and Beatrice to the Thunder Rhino, the Great Swordsman Chester had a new understanding of Suldak's abilities at this time.

Seeing the great swordsman Chester staring at Andrew and Gulitum non-stop, Suldak hung on the ladder next to Lei Tingxi, turned his head and introduced to the great swordsman Chester, "They are all from me. What I brought back from Wojmara City... not only did we defeat the Hellhound in that war, but I also brought back some helpers and combat partners from Wojmara City."

   "Your vision is really accurate... Marquis Luther has a thousand first-rank swordsmen, but in the end there are less than ten swordsmen who can be promoted to second-rank." Great Swordsman Chester said to Suldak with a smile.

  Samira stood on the platform, stuck her head out and looked down.

  Andrew also returned with those tireless cavalry, surrounded Lei Tingxi.

  Of course, everyone didn’t come to watch Suldak. They were very curious about Miss Hathaway from the Luthor family and Miss Beatrice from the Gopher family.

Surrounded by nearly 500 cavalry, and some mercenaries from the mercenary regiment were also looking in this direction, Beatrice was inevitably a little nervous when she stepped on the ladder. slide down.

  Although she was holding the rope with both hands, at this moment, she was so frightened that her mind went blank, and she completely lost the lightness and balance of a female swordsman.

  Suldak was just below Beatrice, and took the opportunity to support the foot that she stepped off, allowing her to climb up steadily.

  He turned his head and said to Chester Great Swordsman: "Andrew awakened the 'Position', which happened to be at the time of the siege of Wojmara City. At that time, I found that he awakened the 'Berserker's Soul'."

   Pointing to the half-elf archer above her head, she introduced: "Samila also met during the siege, and she had already inspired the elven blood."

   "This is Gullitum... and his good brother Naohuaer, he is a foodie, he likes to explore the world's food, and he also likes to reason with people..."

   The ogre was naturally very happy to hear Suldak introduce him like this.

   "The three of them all have some potential in the first place. This time they came to the Bailin plane to encounter a wave of beasts. The most important thing here is the fresh meat of monsters and fighting, so they have the opportunity to hit the bottleneck of the second turn."

   While speaking, the young magician Lance and his friends also rode the magic handle, flew down from the back of Thunder Rhino, and landed beside Suldak.

"Lance, you came at a good time. Let me introduce you. This is Great Swordsman Chester, the highest commander of the Luthor Legion in the Bailin plane." Suldak quickly introduced Great Swordsman Chester to Lance.

   "...This is my good friend Lance, a magician, from the city of Hailansa, who came to Dodan to help me."

  Suldak then introduced Lance's friends to Chester Great Swordsman one by one.

The great swordsman Chester saw the magicians like Lance, and realized that Suldak also had his own contacts in Hailansa City, and he hunted these ghost-striped red ants in the hills and mountains, and he also relied entirely on his own strength .

   Now my opinion of him has changed a lot.
