Chapter 1177: Chapter 317 Ant Cow_3

The vast Ant Army outside the city was agitated to see the ant queen reappear, and the overly dense formation made them look disgustingly congested.

"Bring over all the bones of our Bimon warriors! And bring that Giant Dragon’s corpse as well!" Liu Zhenhan yelled at the ants, thousands of Giant ants fixing their red compound eyes on him, their antennae constantly colliding.

After Liu Zhenhan finished speaking, he watched the Giant ants intently, hoping they would show some response, but it seemed that the Giant ants were somewhat indifferent or didn’t understand at all.

One Giant ant flew into the sky and started performing a ’9’ shaped dance in the air, causing Liu Zhenhan’s eyes to roll.

"Bring over all the bones of our Bimon warriors! And the bones of that Giant Dragon too!" Liu Zhenhan tried to slow down his speech and made various gestures to this Giant ant.

The Giant ant still continued its "9" shaped dance.

"Damn it!" Liu Zhenhan gave up, damn! There was no way to communicate!

The last squadron of Jade warriors had all returned, each sweeping through the sky and strangely peering downward, possibly puzzled over whom their boss was talking to.

Liu Zhenhan swallowed his saliva, feeling rather bored.

"Am I being too idiotic, talking to ants?" the old rogue asked his close followers with a laugh.

"A bit," the two kings of the Hills honestly nodded.

"Pavel!" Liu Zhenhan smiled and then turned his gaze back to his own Centaur Archers: "These Giant ants, long as Warhorses, can you use the ’Taming Secret Language’ from ’Art of Taming’ to tame them all as mounts?"

"Our House’s Taming Secret Language has been used to tame Thousand-Mile Horses since ancient times!" Nedved said disdainfully, staring coldly at the Giant ants: "Though these Giant ants look pretty attractive, they are definitely not good horses that can travel thousands of miles a day; from my experience, despite having elytra, they could fly at a height of dozens of meters but their leg structure is poor, with a maximum speed of about thirty miles per hour. Judging from the muscle curve in their hindquarters, they certainly lack the endurance for long-distance sprints. Such poor quality creatures, why gather them?"

"Don’t mind if I call you a fool, I don’t need them to run fast or far; I just need them to fly and spray acid, that’s better than anything else!" Liu Zhenhan chuckled: "Now, just tell me, can you tame them or not?"

"Can tame!" Nedved confidently nodded: "As long as they meet the basic standards of a Warhorse, the ’Taming Secret Language’ works!"

"Then you go ahead and slowly tame them! Anyway, besides the queen, these warrior ants won’t reproduce, bringing them back to Jade wouldn’t worry me!" Liu Zhenhan handed a rope to O’Neal: "Help me tie this queen ant to the trunk of the Poplar tree outside the city, and tie another rope around that abandoned well platform to settle these ants’ hearts!"

"But once these Giant ants are tamed, where should we put them? This place is so vast, full of ants! They can’t enter our city, nor can we move them out!" Nedved looked dizzily at the vast sea of ants in front of him.

"Forget that for now!" Liu Zhenhan smacked his lips: "All we can do now is wait! I don’t believe these ants can surround the ancient city forever, just wait for the ants to retreat, then we’ll bring out the Vajra Magic Teleportation Array and send this batch of Warhorses away!"

"Alright." Nedved felt a little numb inside, the ’Taming Secret Language’ wasn’t long, but there were thousands of Giant ants here, the boss hadn’t given a base number, when would this taming end!

Prince Kahn, followed by a group of melancholy-looking Bimon officers and shamans, walked briskly up to Liu Zhenhan and gave a collective military salute.

"Your Highness, the casualty numbers have come in. Of the twenty joint squads that were dispatched, there are only... three thousand one hundred and thirty-four people left, almost all are wounded... all order has collapsed, almost all officers at the rank level have perished, permanent disbanding of formations and army flags, will make up a large part... The expeditionary shaman group led by the high Priest Pauleta and sixty-seven shamans are missing, and of the three main corps’ fifty accompanying War Shamans, only twenty-four are left..." Prince Kahn choked up as he spoke, unable to continue.

Liu Zhenhan closed his eyes in pain, the warriors around him also wore a grim expression, Helen and Golinny wept silently. Although everyone had guessed that the casualties this time would be extremely severe, hearing it still felt unbearable.

Shamans, who were strictly protected by warriors, were important figures! Even the casualty rate among the shamans reached one-third, showing how tremendous the loss was!

In the wars of the Aegean Continent, it was impossible to annihilate all enemies; most commanders aimed for defeat. According to Bimon military rewards, destroying forty percent of the enemy’s forces was considered a victory. Just this battle, upon entering the Taklamago Desert, the Bimon Army lost eighty percent of its forces, to describe it as ’too gruesome to behold’ seemed an understatement.

If it weren’t for the Jade Warriors annihilating the Desert Bimon lurking in the ancient city ruins, this would undoubtedly have been a rare case of total annihilation!

"Your Highness! We now have no supplies, no provisions, no weapons, and no armor, and are heavily surrounded by the Ant Army outside, what should we do next?" Prince Kahn along with the remaining officers and shamans looked to Liu Zhenhan.

"I’ll only tell you four words..." Liu Zhenhan clenched his fist and stared fiercely into the northern wind where the Mulan military flag was fluttering: "Leave it to me!"
