Sky Dragon Rider

"Run! Run! Ah!~"

"Brother, brother! Help me!"

"Dragon God above! It's too scary! Help!"

"Wake up, wake up, the lava army ants are here! Run, run!"

He Lifu, a resident of Baiyang Town, was pulled out of his deep sleep by a burst of shouts. The muscle ache all over his body and the feeling of swelling in his legs hit him immediately, which made him moan uncontrollably. Without even recovering his physical strength, his eyelids seemed to weigh as much as a thousand catties, and he reluctantly opened them slowly.

A new voice came from my ears again, it seemed that the soldiers were shouting, not dreaming.

"Seventh column, stabilize the formation, stab them, aim at their mouthparts, stab them hard, don't stop, fill the gap, dragon god, bless poor little El to rest in peace!"

"Get your weapons and water! It's fucking hot in here!"

"Help me! Save me! Captain, save me! Mom, ah!~"

Another ear-piercing scream completely brought Herif back to his soul, his eyes widened suddenly, and he even smelled the strange smell of barbecue and the choking smell of fireworks.

The sky was dim and dim, and there was chaos in the camp where they temporarily settled last night. In the darkness that had not receded before dawn, there were dots of fires flickering. The small woods outside the camp had completely disappeared, only countless sparks swept into the sky.

"Roar!~~"

The roar of the giant dragon completely awakened the entire camp.

sand! ~ Sand! ~ Sand! ~

The ground was trembling, and the stones and soil danced in a heart-pounding dance at the same frequency.

The disciplined nature of the lava army ants allows them to walk in a surprisingly consistent six-legged gait.

It doesn't take much strength to step on the ground with one leg, but the shock caused by thousands of legs stepping down at the same time is comparable to a small-scale earthquake, not to mention that the earthquake is still continuous and endless. It is easy to lose your body balance.

"Lava army ants? It, shouldn't they be fifty miles away. How could they catch up so quickly?!"

There is relevant information about the attacking monsters and the distance between the two sides. In order to stabilize the hearts and morale of the people and avoid unforeseen consequences caused by random thinking, they did not hide it from everyone and will report the latest information as soon as possible.

But no one expected that before dawn, a group of lava army ants suddenly appeared outside the temporary camp and launched an attack.

Curie was about to get up when he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and was immediately pressed back hard.He was horrified to see a giant ant the size of a puppy standing on his chest, flaunting its tentacles, emitting sparks from its body, like a little devil that just climbed up from the underworld.

The spikes on the joints even pierced through the clothes easily, like red-hot iron needles piercing the skin, making him scream involuntarily. The giant ant opened its ferocious mouthparts and clamped down fiercely.

When his eyes went dark, Curie, who was frightened out of his wits, thought that he was going to die.A gust of wind swept past.

"Sand!~~Sand!~~"

The pressure on his chest suddenly lightened, and he opened his eyes again, only to see that the lava army ant had disappeared.

"Fool! Run!"

The dragon knight passing by at low altitude turned back and yelled at the civilian, and raised the dragon-slaying giant sword fiercely.The broken corpse of the lava army ant was blown away by the gust of wind. No matter how hard the carapace was, it was difficult to resist the full-strength slashing of the weak joints and limbs with precision like a scalpel.

"Run! Run there and see the direction!"

The soldiers of the 29th Legion roared hoarsely.Although all of them were pale, they were still doing their duty.

Men in northern Xinjiang can die in battle, but none of them are cowards.

In the dark before dawn.A double-edged long-handled battle ax seemed to be waving azure blue flames under the attachment of the water-type battle aura, and took the lead in severing the escape route for everyone.

"Dragon, Lord Dragon Knight!"

Curie clutched his chest and stood up suddenly, desperately moving his heavy legs that were filled with lead, but he didn't dare to hesitate.

More and more people were awakened. Some people found the right direction and rushed out. Some people ran into the ant colony like headless flies, and turned into a pile of dry bones in the blink of an eye.

The entire camp was in complete chaos, and there were endless screams. Even if the 29th Legion and the Dragon Knights reacted in time, there was still no way to save everyone.

"Molin! Molin! Damn it, those lava army ants are attacking our camp!"

Jiao Longqi, the leader of the 29th Legion, held the satellite phone and yelled angrily. The attack of the lava army ants was completely beyond his expectation, and even the warning point set up two kilometers away failed to send any warning.

"what?"

Lin Mo suddenly stood up from the back of the gold-type dragon and looked at Baiyang Town, which had been reduced to ruins. There were still a large number of lava army ants moving in the town and the barracks outside the town, with no intention of leaving.

In fact, at night, the thermal infrared response of these underground social creatures is quite strong. Even if they are suspended at a height of about 500 meters above the ground, those lava army ants are no different from high-power lights in Lin Mo's eyes.

The number is 17354.

No reduction?

"Listen, it's another group of lava army ants. I've been keeping an eye on the ones in Baiyang Town. They haven't separated. You run away. The ones that can escape count as one."

Lin Mo quickly told the leader what he had monitored through the satellite connection.

"Another group? Dragon God, they are trying to drive us all to extinction, abominable!"

Commander Jiao Longqi's face turned green, which meant that the enemy had enough lava army ants to tease the 29th Legion and the civilians of Baiyang Town like cats and mice, and even wipe them out on the way to escape.

In the actual contact battle just now, at least the lives of several soldiers were needed to successfully kill a lava army ant. The 29th Legion could hardly bear this rate of battle damage.

Thankfully, the monster Xuan Yu Huang Xing carried all the old, weak, women, children and the wounded to further cities for resettlement, otherwise the casualties at this moment would be even more unimaginable.

"Something is not good. The lava army ant colony here seems to have received some signal. They have started to move and are heading towards your position."

The sky turned white, and Lin Mo, who was about to hang up the communication, just happened to see the lava army ant colony on the ground inside and outside the town constantly raising their tentacles, and then they suddenly moved in unison as if they had received a silent order .

The ant colony set off a heat wave like a torrent of magma, and Mars left the ruined Baiyang Town. This is simply bad news that couldn't be worse.

"Damn it! Let the Dragon God decide our fate!"

Hearing this worsening news, Commander Jiao Longqi roared, hung up the call ruthlessly, then drew out his long sword, and a dazzling battle aura surged all over his body.

This time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be kind again, even if it is death, I have to drag a few more hateful lava army ants to meet the god of the underworld.

Attacked by the lava army ant colony for two consecutive days, the exhausted 29th Legion failed to escape after all.

When the monster Xuan Yu Huang Xing, who had transported away the old, weak, women, children and wounded soldiers, rushed back, less than one-tenth of the legionnaires were left.

Only one-third of the civilians who were evacuated with them survived. This rare figure was bought by the soldiers of the 29th Legion with their own lives. Even the Dragon Knights could not prevent this tragedy from happening.

The monster Xuanyu Huangxing and the giant dragons took away as many people as possible, but there were still a few people who had to face the ferocious giant necks and spikes of the lava army ant colony.

The other five legions involved in countering the rebellion were also not optimistic. The target of the lava army ant colony was not only Baiyang Town, but also other legions.

The satellite phones that had just been sent to the leaders of the various legions lost contact one after another.

The three legions of the Southern Military Region were completely annihilated, and none were spared.

The 28th Army Corps in the Northern Military Region was reduced to scorched earth overnight, including its people and camps. The 29th Army Corps, like the [-]th Army Corps, was almost wiped out.

Almost in just one day and one night, the defense line composed of the six legions loyal to the royal family collapsed completely, and the situation that had been stalemate turned into a sharp turn for the worse.

Obviously, the Lingshen Palace, which took care of all war business, gave the rebels a big surprise.

This is not the worst. Those lava army ants seem to have endless strength, and they continue to penetrate into the hinterland of the Islamic Empire without sleep. The number of ant colonies is like a snowball. The army had to retreat again and again, unable to confront it head-on.

Changyan City, Tuluo Town, Hexing Town, Chengfeng City... It was like a natural disaster that continued to spread. In just three or four days, the Islamic Empire lost more than ten cities and towns. The casualties of soldiers even reached hundreds of thousands, and more urban residents fell into a great panic. They led their families and valuables and were forced to leave their homes and flee to the hinterland of the empire or to areas further east.

Dragon Knight and Xuanyu Huangxing, who helped the anti-rebellion army, were even more exhausted. Not only did they have to harass and attack the ant colony, but they also had to use their flying and floating abilities to carry civilians or wounded out of the dangerous area as much as possible. A drop in the bucket.

Worse news came one after another. There was a rebellion in the southern military district of the Islamic Empire.

It only took half a month for the Anstruther Empire, a powerful empire in the south, to completely occupy the Principality of Skulu between the Slan Empire and another ally, the Republic of Lahn, to form a pole against the southern border of the Slan Empire. A big threat, a rebellion from inside and outside immediately broke out, and the entire southern part of the empire was completely lost under the joint march of the Anstruther Empire and the Republic of Lahn.

The Republic of Portland, which is adjacent to the eastern border of the Islamic Empire, has not been idle either. Somehow, it has opened more than a dozen gaps in the ice-rock mountain range that separates the two countries, and even changed the territory of the Islamic Empire. The microclimate allowed the warm and humid air from the eastern ocean to enter the territory of the Islamic Empire, forming continuous rainfall.

The gap below the snow line created a passage for the Portlanders to march. More than a dozen legions aggressively entered the Islamic Empire and fought fiercely with the main force of the Eastern Military Region.
