Chapter 180: Shaky

Uninterrupted life-and-death fighting has reduced the number of insect swarms by nearly half, but only the number has been reduced, and their individual quality has been rapidly increasing.
The Zerg Nag should have been screened in the fight from the moment of birth. It's just that their former king, a monster with a special ability, interrupted this process, where they made up for the missing link again.
Although Nag possesses good individual intelligence, they are more compliant with the will of the group, and now there is only one representative of their group will-Lily.
When Lily left, she left a more vague order-hunting.
Not long after receiving this order, the swarm completely dispersed. Looking for a goal alone, but there is no shortage of cooperation.
Ruiou knew that his struggle for survival had created a chance for these bugs to attack, so they would appear. Even so, he still felt relieved. Simple rules of survival are not bad for him, at least he has a more flexible mind, and he can take advantage of all this.
Therefore, Ruiou decided to use his example as a bait to attract the sporadic sentinels.
...
As they move forward, the Demon's striker has gradually shown fatigue. The day and night harassment made them fall into the illusion of enemies on all sides. At first, the sentient wizards who accompanied the army were able to provide some help, but gradually these wizards became sleepy and their help became more and more limited.
Moreover, their perception range is too small, and they can barely look after the surroundings when stuck in one place. But when marching, they simply cannot meet the needs of large-scale exploration.
After crossing Yinsong Town, the marching speed of the demons began to decrease sharply, which made the impatience spread in the army. Small-scale battles have become more frequent, and it seems that everyone wants to vent in this way. However, the seemingly inconspicuous small-scale frequent fighting has greatly increased the loss of equipment and personnel.
The generals led by the Demon Race knew the former Northland very well, and it was precisely because of this understanding that he was not prepared enough. In the past, when an army of demons came, the people from the north would defend the city very simply. Most of the demons flaunted their might under the city, and then turned and retreated.
Today the people of the North are still missing, but they have left annoying bugs to entangle them endlessly. How similar is this to Mozu's methods! It's just that what they leave behind are vassals, and what the Northlanders leave behind are more ferocious insects, and the feeling of cocooning and self-binding arose spontaneously.
The entire demons underestimated this, otherwise they would not be in trouble. Fortunately! The crazy Northlanders didn't destroy Silverpine Town or even touch the warehouse there, so there was still room for remedy.
This made him a little afraid. If Silverpine Town is completely destroyed, then they who are trapped here...
Equipment can also be deployed from Yinsong Town, but the loss of personnel is difficult to replenish.
...
Lily still didn't know that Nag had caused great trouble to the Demon Race, and even dragged the Demon forward. She was still standing on the wall and watching the little wizard below.
After standing for a day and night, many people began to falter. They are not her, they can sleep endlessly. The crowd who was still giggling and watching yesterday, when they woke up and passed by here again, they couldn't help becoming silent and serious.
The complainant has regretted it, and he did not expect it to be like this. Thought a few slaps would pass a warning. These children have been exhausted all the way. They need food and rest, not this punishment. Even if the punishment is imposed, it should be delayed.
He wanted to intercede, so he looked at the wall. The sun shone on the girl's body and plated her with a golden rim, as if the whole person was emitting endless light. So he temporarily forgot his original intention and looked at him in surprise. More and more people are looking up, and even the little wizards can't help but raise their heads and join the stunned ranks.
Lily was indifferent to everyone's gaze, she had adapted to it all. From the initial pride, boredom, to numbness, let them go, she just needs to do her own thing.
...
The transfer of equipment is a turning point in the battle between the Demon forward and the insects.
No one thought that the insect swarm would suddenly gather and swept away this small transportation team. When the brigade arrived, the swarm had already dispersed.
Ironically, they left behind the equipment that the demons badly needed...
Ruiou also participated in the attack and successfully captured one person. Under the crowd of insects, Ruiou happily had a meal with the captives and subdued the first servant in his life.
This kind of meal made Ruiou feel excited, so a new arrest began. Following this, there were more and more servants around Ruiou, and his actions became more and more bold.
The missing outposts appeared again outside the barracks, but they were no longer reliable comrades in arms, but joined the ranks of cannibals. They were outside the camp, openly eating the bodies of their former compatriots.
This caused the morale of the demons to plummet, and the morale of the army began to shake, and no one wanted to leave the camp to perform tasks. They stopped moving forward and even showed signs of retreat. But now, the retracement has become somewhat difficult.
The insect swarm has realized that they are becoming weak and began to surround here. From time to time, insects stand up and look around outside the camp...
