"Why are we so polite to each other? Vinita, Kingu, and Ishtar will defend together. Tisser, Elle, and I will defend together."
Moyin casually threw a stone and smashed the head of the attacking Temira ant, then waved his hand cheerfully.
With Tisser's good-natured character, it was impossible for him to watch his junior being excluded and eventually die in the mouth of ants without any support. He also didn't want to see the lovely girl die here, so he naturally called her over.
As for the division of the two teams, although Ai Lei and others are strong enough to fight against an ant colony alone, in order not to attract attention on the surface, they still have to show teamwork.
Both groups of people were assigned two front rows and one back row. If the unexpected event that Tisser had flagged before was just this ant tide, then it wouldn't even be an accident.
After all, there are tens of thousands of B-rank adventurers in this world. Even if the opponent is a god, it is impossible for him to know all of them. As long as they do not show the ability to kill gods, the opponent should not be wary of them or even scare them away.
After all, if a god is afraid of even a B-rank adventurer, there is no way that god can survive in this world. He would have been scared away before they arrived.
"Okay, I'll fight hard."
Vinita gripped her dagger tightly.
"You three should take a rest first. Join the battle when you are well. Now leave it to me, Elle, and Tisser."
"Okay, thank you for your help then."
Vinita nodded, and obediently rested inside the team with Ishtar and Jingu.
Under Elvik's command, the adventurers got a long-awaited rest. Although the pressure on the defensive side increased a lot due to the loss of half the manpower, after the first rotation of defense, the adventurers who got the rest time once again burst out with good fighting power.
And because Vinita's teammates were replaced by Kingo and Ishtar, the battle became much easier than before.
"The ecological model of these Temira ants is really amazing. The bodies of the dead ants will become the food for the remaining members to prolong the duration of the entire race. If they succeed in fighting, they can obtain human flesh as food. Such a race even has the potential to dominate the land. Why can't this ant plague in this world make a big difference?"
While observing the ecological habits of the Temira ants, Moyin asked Tisser with interest.
"The Zerg's protection has a special mechanism. The larger the population, the shorter the life span. Even if it evolves into a Temira Ant King, it can only live for two to three years. The life span of an ordinary Temira Ant is only one year. The advancement of the Ant King is not a perfect successor, so the maximum number of ants in the ant plague was only more than 50,000 at one time."
"Although this number is a despairing number in front of ordinary adventurer teams, when the human army also dispatched tens of thousands of soldiers to annihilate the Temira ants, the ant plague is nothing. After all, in terms of individual strength, the Temira ants are weaker than humans."
"Moreover, there are individuals among humans who are blessed by magicians. After forming a magician group, they can launch a volley of magic, which can greatly reduce the number of Telmira ants before the battle."
"Although the power of the swarm is self-reliant, we humans are much better at this."
Tisser opened his mouth to answer.
"So that's it. Lifespan limits their development."
Moyin nodded in sudden realization. It seemed that the nature of the protection could also affect the lifespan, species and ideology of the recipient. It was indeed an interesting rule.
"I always feel that Mr. Moyin is an incredible person. He is actually interested in the ecology of the Temira ants."
Vinita started talking to Moyin. She was the type who was very outgoing, but because of the Assassin's protection, she didn't have many opportunities to chat with others, and most of the time it made people feel uncomfortable, so they didn't chat much.
It was rare to meet someone who could accept Tisser as a senior, and she was curious and wanted to know more about Moyin.
"I am very curious about all kinds of things, because unknown things are interesting, aren't they?"
Moyin answered casually that he could reverse-analyze the strength of the gods in this world to a certain extent through these subtle signs, and if the opponent was difficult to deal with, he could also formulate a targeted battle plan. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy means you will win every battle, so he would not be careless in combat.
"Senior is so lucky to have found a teammate like you."
Vinita said with some envy and without any jealousy that she actually respected Tisser very much. After all, when she first joined the Assassin's Guild, Tisser took good care of her, and she also had a friendly personality, so she was really happy for Tisser now.
She is actually very depressed most of the time. It would be great if her protection was that of a healer, or some other protection that could help others. She doesn't like the protection she was given at all, but if she doesn't live according to the protection, life will become very difficult, because she is naturally less likely to benefit from the correction effect brought by the protection than people in other industries.
Furthermore, once she stops doing the work of an assassin or other work that takes lives, once her Divine Protection creates an impulse, it may forcibly control her to kill her loved ones.
This is the reason why most people in this world choose their careers based on their blessings.
There were many times when she really felt that the protection bestowed on her by God was that of an assassin, just to see her make a fool of herself. But she couldn't tell anyone about this. Otherwise, once the Holy Church heard it, she would be forcibly expelled from the human world. In worse cases, she might be wiped out by the Inquisition Knights of the Holy Church.
Chapter 1139: Unfortunate People
In this world, if people's personalities are in harmony with the protection they are given, then everything will go smoothly. However, it is also possible that a girl with a kind and weak personality is given the protection of killing or torture.
Once this happens, these people will live in misfortune all their lives.
If one forcibly disobeys the blessing granted by the Supreme God Demis, the impulse of the blessing will continue to accumulate, and one day it will explode uncontrollably, and then forcibly manipulate the body to kill one's relatives or torture them.
God is not as kind and generous as the Holy Fathers Church preaches... Those who have a smooth life are just lucky and have the right personality for him.
"It's getting dark. I'm afraid that the Ant King Temira will control the ant colony to launch a general attack tonight. If the Ant King appears, I hope Miss Ishtar can kill him immediately. It will be difficult for the ant colony to launch an effective group attack without the command. If we fail to kill him, it will be a big trouble."
"We don't have much chance. In order to improve its own protection, the Temira Ant King will do everything he can to kill the powerful protection holders who have survived for a day. But once it finds that its life is threatened, it may not appear again for several hours. The attack of the ant tide will become more crazy. With the current loss of the team, it may be very dangerous."
Tisser said seriously, and Moyin immediately relayed Tisser's arrangements to Ishtar.
"Why doesn't the Temira Ant King wait until the ants in the colony are almost exhausted before coming out to harvest?"
Ai Lei asked with some confusion.
As for Tisser's seriousness, there was nothing she could do... These Temira ants posed no threat to her, so she didn't feel nervous at all.
"Because as the ant king, it wants to kill more powerful adventurers. If it is just for the meat on the hundred of us, there is no need for the ant king to command, because it will gain nothing. In fact, the daytime attacks are rhythmically consuming the weak adventurers. After all, weak protection holders cannot help it grow."
Tisser began to explain.
"Are these mere monsters actually that smart???"
Ailei asked in great surprise, this monster is too smart.
"Rather than being smart, it's more like a hunting instinct. Because the strength of the Temira ant itself as a magical beast is not very high. If it wants to defeat a strong opponent, it can only rely on the number of its own kind to weaken the opponent. This is a habit that the ant king has developed instinctively in battle. In fact, its intelligence level is still at the level of a magical beast."
Tisser shook her head. From her assassin's perspective, the Temira Ant King was not very smart. If she had assassinated the Temira Ant King after his aura was cut off instead of fighting as a caravan guard, there would be dozens of ways to easily get rid of the Temira Ant King and escape unscathed.
It was just the existence of the ant tide that limited her performance.
As the sky gradually darkened, the atmosphere in the caravan gradually became solemn.
Although adventurers who hang out in the Fire Moon Plains may never encounter an ant tide even once in their lifetime, they have all heard about how troublesome ant tides can be.
The fighting during the day was just a mutual consumption of energy by both sides; the real decisive battle will take place tonight.
"Everyone, don't panic. In fact, just to be on the safe side, our caravan has also recruited a B-level fire magician Jinmie for this escort mission. However, he didn't take action during the day in order to conserve his magic power. With him around, there won't be too many casualties in the ant tide tonight. All you have to do is hold on to your own defense areas."
Elvik once again took out the magic device to boost morale.
The adventurers suddenly felt relieved when they learned that there was a B-level magician hidden in their team.
"As long as we can survive this ant tide until King Temira shows up, we must destroy him as soon as possible. Once King Temira dies, the ant tide will soon collapse on its own."
"There is a plain area ahead. The caravan will surround the vehicles in a circular defense formation. The adventurers who are healing and assisting will stay inside. Adventurers who are seriously injured and have lost their combat effectiveness should enter the circle to receive protection as much as possible."
There was a slight hint of panic in the voice of the caravan leader Elvik. Even though their caravan had hired a B-class magician as a backup, he still had little confidence in facing the swarm of tens of thousands of ants. After all, this was the first time he had encountered a swarm of ants in his more than 20 years of business, and he was completely in a state of crossing the river by feeling the stones.
I'm not sure if I can keep him, so I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate.
Half an hour later, the caravan arrived at the plain area that Elvik mentioned. The trucks were quickly surrounded by the caravan's merchants into a circular defensive formation. A bonfire was lit in the middle area, and the merchants used spices to cook hot soup. The adventurers who had been fighting for a whole day ate some dry food with the soup, and then took the time to recover their strength.
“Wow, this chicken sandwich is delicious.”
Vinita, who was with Tisser, also got a sandwich that Moyin took out from the prop box and prepared for the journey. After just one bite, she was immediately captivated by the delicious taste in her mouth.
"It's a pity that the prop box doesn't have a fresh-keeping function. For food like sandwiches, the taste and freshness will start to be affected after a day."
Moyin said with some regret. He naturally hoped that Ailei and the others could always eat the most delicious food, but the laws of time and space could not be applied before locking the hunting target, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.
"But it's still super delicious! I've been to a restaurant before where the head chef is a senior chef named Kago, and nothing he makes is as delicious as this sandwich."
Vinita praised it as she took a big bite of her sandwich.
"It's not my illusion... I said Moyin's cooking skills are amazing."
Tisser nodded in agreement with Vinita. She really felt that it was impossible to cook such delicious food based on experience alone.
"No matter how much you two praise me, I won't get any candy."
Moyin reminded with amusement.
"I don't have any candy, but can I have another helping of this sandwich? Even if I have to pay several times the price for the ingredients, that's fine!"
Vinita asked with some anticipation as she quickly finished the sandwich in her hand. In the face of appetite, the previous barriers of joining the team temporarily had long disappeared. She now just wanted another sandwich to satisfy her stomach.
"Of course, here you go."
Moyin took out another sandwich from the prop box and handed it to Vinita.
"How much is the meal?"
"Don't worry about it. We are all comrades fighting side by side. Why do you still care about this?"
Moyin waved his hand casually.
"But I'll feel really bad!"
Vinita said with some trouble while holding a sandwich.
PS: PY this friend's book
Introduction: [Cyberpunk] [Scrap Metal Mechanic]
As the title suggests, this is a story about a mechanic who tries to recycle scrap iron from a scrap recycling station to build an iron suit, refuses body modification, and wants to rival gods with his mortal body!
Ahem, sorry, I read the wrong line. In fact, the reason why Harley refused to transform his body was simply because he was too afraid of cyberpsychosis. After all, he was going to march to the moon in the future, and at the very least, he wanted to be the king of the wasteland.
You're right, Lucy?
Chapter 1140: The Vigorous Killer Girl Who Sets a Death Flag
"If I take your money, Tisser will be unhappy, so let's not mention the meal fee. I'm really sorry. Next time, buy some good vegetables or meat and send them to our hot spring hotel."
"Okay! I'll definitely visit you after this commission is over!"
Vinita immediately set up a death flag.
"It's better not to say such things."
Moyin spoke up to remind.
