Chapter 475: Insect Tide Army
The bloody tide swept across the battlefield, destroying everything.
At this point, the outcome is no longer in suspense.
All the well-prepared and ambitious Sand Bandit troops are buried here, and their corpses will fall into the belly of the Blood Spider before long.
No matter if one person defeats thousands of armies.
Still driving the insect wave army.
Once this news spreads, it will definitely surprise everyone.
"Instead of passively defending, it's better to take the initiative." Lu Meng thought to himself, "It's time to show some strength."
Achi, the city lord of Rotten Town, is still worried about whether the coalition's strength can resist the invasion from the outside.
As everyone knows, as long as the enemy sees the cost of attacking you,
They will weigh the pros and cons themselves.
Now, the price is as literal as it sounds, bloody and displayed in front of the world, deterring all parties.
There will be unprecedented peace in the swamp.
This period of time is sufficient for internal recovery and development.
At the end of the line of sight, the bloody spiders were still chasing the sand bandits excitedly, but as the sun set at noon, the sun gradually became more intense, and the unobstructed light shone on them, and traces of water vapor evaporated from their carapace.
Although the blood spider's movements were fierce, they were much slower than at the beginning.
"come back."
Lu Meng rubbed his temples and gave orders through nearly a hundred nodes under his control.
A spreading tide.
It shrank back at an extremely fast speed.
Just like the Fog People like to move in foggy weather and at night, the same is true for the water-loving Blood Spiders. Drying cannot kill them in a short time. Lu Meng can also force them to act against their instincts, but after all, it is not a suitable environment for them.
Lu Meng estimated that starting from this distance, another third of the border area could be covered.
Going forward, the Insect Tide Legion can still fight, but it may begin to suffer from attrition, and it needs to consider the consumption of supplies.
This is without counting the return trip.
In order to solve this problem, Lu dreamed: If the rainy season comes in the border land, or the upper reaches of the Green Field River open its gates and release water, this river that originates from the Holy Kingdom and converges into the swamp will surge, and it can become a marching route. 'highway'.
From south to north, there is even hope of directly entering the Pride of Auckland in the Holy Country.
This is scary.
But right now I can only think about it.
Whether it is the rainy season in the border land or asking the Paladin to open the mountain dam, it is not something that ordinary people can easily wait for.
The Blood Spider Legion is currently Lu Meng's biggest trump card.
The reason why he is willing to expose it is that it is difficult to hide it. Rather than letting others discover it, it is better to take advantage of it while there is still a gap in information.
Secondly, now is the time when they can exert their greatest value.
The swamp climate not only covers swamps in the traditional sense, but also includes the more humid southern wetlands and the burning forests filled with acid rain - the latter is the main birthplace of the blood spider insect tide.
Lu Meng's sphere of influence is larger than the territory under the jurisdiction of the king of the swamp in the past.
It can be said that it has more than doubled.
It can also project influence outwards.
More importantly, it means absolute security in these areas.
The word "absolutely".
Even the military towns and defense lines with heavy troops from the three major countries dare not guarantee this.
But Lu Meng can.
As long as they are located in a swamp climate, the blood spider army can be said to have an endless supply. Even if their heirs are killed in battle, their corpses will become food for their companions; coupled with their own powerful strength and fearless characteristics of death, they are absolutely ferocious and unstoppable. entangled.
Matching the dense forest and black swamp terrain.
Even if there are enemies who are far more powerful than Lu Meng himself, they can still haunt you to death if they can't defeat them.
Not to mention a massive army to deal with the invasion.
Your brother has his time.
I have an endless supply of bugs.
Every person on the other side who died was a soldier who had been trained for who knows how many years. But Lu Meng only had to urge the insect mother to give birth to one more child if he killed a blood spider - there was no need to consume food supplies.
Unless the enemy adopts the same strategy.
But in fact, there is no need for actual combat. The mere presence of the blood spider army's deterrent is enough to ensure that the swamp will no longer be intruded.
The sacrifice and reward of offending the "Lord of Blood" are too disproportionate.
As far as the eye can see, the blood spiders are already cleaning the battlefield, and Lu Meng gradually returns his authority, allowing the five insect mothers to lead their offspring.
With the addition of the module, he can control a maximum of 256 blood spider nodes.
Less than half of this battle has been used.
Taming animals also requires Lu Meng's own range of perception and willpower, but today he has not reached the limit, but the development time is limited. His blood spider army is only this large in total.
That is, given time.
The size of the insect tide army can at least be doubled, to about ten.
Of course, Lu Meng can also leave all the control slots to the insect mother, so that even if he does not use the [More Teammates] module and only reaches the default limit, he can have 30 blood spider legions under his command.
But this way.
His control over the entire insect wave army will be greatly weakened.
The inability to accurately implement strategies and tactics is second. The most important thing is not to be able to restrict the activities of the insect swarm on weekdays - Lu Meng cannot always install the beast taming module. He has other things to do, and he cannot stay with the insect swarm forever. together.
The only ones who could still listen to him at that time were the domesticated insect mothers.
The same cannot be said for other heirs.
The current situation is not bad. Lu Meng has set a limited hunting range. In addition, the Burning Forest is an uninhabitable insect swarm. Under normal circumstances, the blood spider army will not meet ordinary residents.
Once the number of insects increases, wild animals cannot support them. I am afraid that all the people and animals in it will have to be sacrificed, and the entire swamp will be turned into a dead and silent hotbed for the cultivation of blood spiders.
This is certainly an option.
It can even be effective quickly, allowing Lu Meng to immediately have a terrifying army and make him a veritable blood lord... Unfortunately, that is not the world he wants.
Lu Meng looked far to the southwest.
The hat cast a shadow on his face, blocking the view of outsiders.
Someone has already done this.
That "predecessor" in a sense - the lord of insects.
That thing turned the entire Shun Land, Arak... into a breeding ground for human skin spiders, and it is even expanding outward. The excess human skin spiders alone have created a dangerous spider plain, making the entire Shak Kingdom feel like it is facing a great enemy.
The opponent's method is probably to only control the insect mother and not to restrict the insect swarm at all, so the number of spider armies under his command is unimaginable.
And except for the slower speed, the human skin spider is stronger than the blood spider in terms of size, combat effectiveness, and adaptability to the environment... It can be said to be a more versatile war weapon.
Only in the swamp terrain will it suffer a loss on the road.
Raising so many human skin spiders... If the Lord of Insects really has some plans, then the target will definitely not be just the Kingdom of Shek.
Fortunately, compared to the beginning.
Now Lu Meng is not so worried.
Thinking back to the beginning, when he heard the news of the Lord of Insects from Bayan, he was just thinking about running away - the sky fell, and there were tall people in front to support it.
In a blink of an eye, he himself became a "tall man"...
I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Lu Meng looked around the battlefield, and saw the blood spider descendants carrying corpses everywhere, like hardworking ants, but they were undoubtedly bigger and more terrifying.
He was not interested at first.
But suddenly, his eyes paused.
From a perspective that no one outside could detect, a line of text appeared before my eyes.
"This is an unexpected gain..."
