What happens when the beast is in trouble? They will never wait to die! Driven by the survival instinct, even the most docile rabbit will struggle. However, human beings are not beasts. The highly socialized life and wisdom have eroded many human animal instincts. Therefore, some people will choose to wait for death in a desperate situation unless someone leads them to resist, because socialized life gives human beings another powerful instinct, collective consciousness.

    This is the case now. When the dense ant people came up again, these soldiers who had just changed from farmers did not collapse as victor expected. More than 20 War Bear mercenaries shouted and scolded, laughed and joked with each other, and shot deadly crossbows at the monsters below with their bows and crossbows. Driven by these veterans, other militias also shot desperately.

    Victor wondered why he was not afraid? In the past, when watching war movies on earth, Victor thought those soldiers who charged were really stupid. If it was him, he would find a place to pretend to be dead. But now he understood that as long as his comrades in arms were fighting hard, the soldiers would not be afraid, or had no heart to be afraid at all. So he stood on the brick wall and put a crossbow into the ant man''s head. In fact, when Victor was inspired by others, his existence was the greatest encouragement to the soldiers. Of course, if Victor died, the soldiers would collapse immediately.

    The sharp arrow pierced the rain curtain and broke the ant man''s shell. The green juice flew everywhere. In particular, two monkey militias, armed with hard bows and arrows, shot through the head of ant people. In fact, they shot more ant people than victor.

    Victor knew that the soldiers'' efforts were futile. These ant men were monsters who didn''t care about life and death. They rushed forward with their limbs under the arrow rain. Soon, they would rush to the edge of the ditch, and then jump in without hesitation and let their companions step on them until they piled up a slope flush with the fence.

    "Throw the torch down!" Barrett roared

    When dozens of ant people jumped into the ditch filled with fire oil, more than a dozen oil wood torches fell from the fence, and the fire oil pool was lit. The merciless flame devoured the ant people in an instant, and the heat wave rolled. Victor could feel the pressing heat standing on the high fence.

    These fire oils are mixed with palm oil and lard. After the oil extracted from oil palm is ignited, the temperature is very high, and lard is durable and resistant to burning. Even if it is still raining in the sky, the oil pool is burning. But what is despairing is that ant people jump into the fire pool one after another. Before long, these ant people will put out the fire with their bodies.

    However, this did not happen. Every ant man jumped into the fire pool and was immediately ignited. Instead, the flame burned more violently. The air was filled with a pungent smell, which was the smell of burning ant man.

    Watching the ant people jump into the oil pool one by one and then be lit like a fire, everyone was stunned.

    "Hahaha! These animals who are not afraid of death are afraid of fire!"

    "Jump! Jump! You monsters all jump in and burn!"

    "It must be the great lord of glory who is protecting us!"

    The flame formed an insurmountable barrier and devoured every ant man who jumped in. The soldiers talked and laughed loudly, and their depressed emotions were ignited by the burning ant man.

    "Ha ha, sir, these monsters are afraid of fire!" Gru came over and laughed happily.

    Barrett said quietly, "it''s not that they are afraid of fire, but that their blood is as flammable as oil."

    Victor nodded. Barrett observed carefully. The green blood on the ground was indeed burning.

    "My Lord, these monsters are really strange. If they are beasts without wisdom, they have hands like people and retreat. If they are wise, how can they be so stupid that they keep jumping into the fire?" Barrett touched his beard and continued, "I guess these monsters are like soldiers who have to obey the orders of the commander, so it is likely that there is a monster in charge of command among them. If we can kill it, the situation may change."

    Victor looked at several alchemical militias standing aside. Like these ant men, they would not hesitate to carry out Victor''s orders. Victor vaguely felt that these ant men had a great relationship with alchemists. First of all, ant man''s form is completely born for fighting. They can run and charge with their limbs. When fighting, they can stand up and liberate a pair of arms in the middle, which means they can use more weapons. Secondly, their elemental properties and behavioral characteristics are very similar to those of alchemists. The only thing that makes Victor wonder is that if ant people are alchemical life, they must be combat units, but their individual strength is too weak. No matter how many they are, they can not become the main arms of the alchemical empire.

    "I''m going to the upper camp."

    Seeing that the ant man began to retreat, Victor decided to use this gap to go to the alchemy tower. Before the second war, the body of an ant man had been sent to the element extraction platform by the alchemist militia. Now Victor wanted to ask the king of Tallinn.

    Barrett was shocked and whispered to victor, "Sir, you can''t leave here now! Otherwise, our soldiers will be suspicious and soon they will collapse."

    Victor frowned, turned to look, and found that the soldiers looked at him from time to time, and then talked and laughed with his comrades in arms as if nothing had happened.

    Victor''s face changed. The ant man was no longer jumping into the fire pool, but the fire oil would always burn out. If no solution could be found, the camp would be broken sooner or later. And the turnaround may be in the alchemy Tower! But Barrett''s advice is also reasonable. If he leaves the brick wall, these soldiers may really collapse. After all, they are not full-time guards.

    Just as victor hesitated, the ant man took a new action. They approached the burning ditch again. This time, they stood up and threw the mud on the ground at the fire pool.

    "Shoot them!" Barrett''s face changed greatly and ordered loudly.

    The soldiers also understood the intention of the ant man. Everyone shot arrows at the ant man who tried to put out the fire. This time, the ant man was obviously much smarter. They squatted on the ground, threw mud blocks towards the fire pool with their middle two arms, and held their companions'' bodies in front of their heads. In this way, even the crossbow could not shoot them directly.

    Now everyone''s face became ugly. With the number of ant people, it won''t be long before the trench can be filled up.

    "Shoot one first!" Cried Barrett.

    The soldiers immediately started shooting at an ant man. The ant man was instantly shot into a hedgehog by dense arrows, but as soon as it fell down, an ant man responsible for transporting soil took its place. In this way, the ant man braved the arrow rain and threw the soil and stones into the burning oil pool bit by bit in an unimaginable order.

    When the desperate soldiers frantically shot these ant people, Victor looked down. Countless ant people were still gathering at the hill camp. He roughly estimated that there were more than 10000 ant people gathered in the front.

    Victor gritted his teeth and said to Barrett, "now we can only organize everyone to retreat by using the winch behind the camp while the fire has not been extinguished by the ant man!"

    Barrett whispered, "Sir, we can still support under the protection of the fence. I''m afraid we can''t escape the pursuit of these monsters in the wild."

    These monsters can run like horses when they land on all fours, and their charging speed can even reach 50 kilometers per hour. Barrett doesn''t think retreat is a good idea.

    "I know! But we have no choice. Even if the ant people don''t fill the earth, the fire oil will burn out. There may be a way to retreat. If we are trapped here, the whole army will be destroyed sooner or later." Victor continued: "we continue to stick to the fence, attract the attention of ant people and buy time for everyone''s retreat. As for how many people can survive, it depends on their own luck."

    Ant people come from the southwest, mainly concentrated in the front of the camp, and behind the camp is a steep slope. The lookout reported that no ant man was found in that direction.

    Barrett thought for a moment and sighed, "it seems that it can only be so. Sir, you can organize everyone to retreat! Give it to me!"

    "I left last, or the soldiers would collapse, lose the control of the soldiers, and no one could retreat safely." Victor shook his head.

    Barrett nodded heavily. He knew that this was indeed the key to organizing the retreat. Whether it was to attract the attention of ant people or to suppress the fire extinguishing speed of ant people, the fence must not collapse first.

    "Good! My Lord, I will fight with you to the end!" Barrett said firmly.

    The soldiers heard that the LORD would hold on to the end and cover their retreat. They shot arrows at the ant people one by one. For a time, the filling speed of the ant people was slowed down.

    "Shack, go to the cave, get that brick, and tell Lilia to see me." Victor whispered to the alchemist shack.

    Soon, shack came up with Lilia and a tall, wooden man.

    "Victor, I''m not going! I want to be with you."

    As soon as Lilia came up, she threw herself into Victor''s arms and cried with tears.

    Vic sighed for a long time. Lilia''s feelings for him were true, but she was just an ordinary person. If she stayed by her side, there would be little hope of escape.

    "Lilia, listen to me!" Victor lifted Lilia''s tearful little face: "you''re not abandoning me to escape alone. You have a more important mission. You have to try to survive. Send this brick to Countess Sylvia''s hand, and she will come to rescue me."

    Victor handed the brick to Lilia. It was a special brick. According to the investigation of the alchemical crow, more than 30000 ant people have entered Victor''s collar. In the face of so many fierce and fearless monsters, the York family will certainly not mobilize all their strength to rescue victor. Even if Sylvia wants to do so, she can''t convince the family. Unless there is a huge interest for the York family to bear heavy losses and save victor. Special bricks have such value.

    "Let others do it! I just want to be with you!"

    With tears in her eyes, Lilia tightly hugged Victor''s waist and didn''t want to let go of anything. In her opinion, there was no way to survive the final retreat. If she wanted to die, she would rather die with her own man.

    Victor stroked Lilia''s wet hair and whispered to her: "Listen, Lilia. I won''t die! There''s a secret door in the restricted area of the upper camp, which can go directly down to the bottom of the hill. I''ll retreat from there. However, there''s a steep slope and no rope. You''re just an ordinary person and can''t get down at all. And with Renault and them to protect me, I won''t be easily killed by these monsters."

    "Really?!" Lilia looked up and asked victor.

    Victor nodded heavily and asked the wooden man beside him, "what''s your name?"

    The strong man bowed and said, "my Lord, my name is Kahn."

    "Have you held on for 12 hours?" Murmured victor.

    Strauss Kahn is a newly created cattle subduing militia. The time is exactly 12 hours. Victor thought he could hold on for 20 days, but he was about to retreat in 12 hours.

    "Kahn, your task is to protect Mrs. Lilia and obey her orders!"

    "Yes, my Lord."

    Victor whispered to Lilia again, "Lilia, Kahn will protect you. You go straight to Nelson. I have two men with Benson, and they will listen to your orders. Remember, don''t care about the people who run for their lives on the road. Now everyone is the same. We can only take care of ourselves! The sooner you get to Heibao Town, the greater our hope of turnover!"

    Victor did not break up for others purely out of noble character. Facing the vast number of ant people, the camp must be unable to hold on, and running away is the only choice. Letting the people flee in all directions can cover Lilia. For ordinary people, Victor stuck to the end and tried his best to provide them with a chance to escape. As for Victor himself, he has an alchemist With the protection of soldiers, the chance of survival is the greatest.

    In fact, Victor doesn''t want to leave his territory easily. As long as he can wait until the York family clears up these monsters, he is still the legal Lord here, and Victor is reluctant to give up the No. 7 alchemy tower. Victor plans to lead the monsters to the upper camp, leave the camp through the secret door, take Renault with them and join the five alchemy war mastiffs, and then he can meet them in the territory The monster circled for a while.

    Victor believes that although there are a large number of these monsters, his territory is also very vast. With the cooperation of alchemical crows, he can completely avoid them. After all, the monomer strength of these ant people is not strong. If something can''t be done, it''s not too late to escape, but at that time, he will lose his legal ownership of the territory because he gives up the territory.

    Lilia stopped her tears and kissed Victor''s lips. A moment later, she gave Victor a deep look and turned to the camp. Cow subdued militia Kahn silently followed Lilia, and three alchemical crows hovered over him.

    Victor sighed as Lilia disappeared into view. Lilia is the one he cares about most in this territory. But under the cover of the nest, there is no egg. Victor has created the best escape conditions for Lilia. There are people to cover, militia to follow, and gold smelting crows to guard. Now we can only see Lilia''s own ability!

    Victor cleaned up his mood and looked back under the fence. The fire oil was still burning, the endless ant people were still throwing soil into the ditch against the arrow rain, and the soldiers behind the fence were still shooting fiercely at the monsters below. So far, no one in the camp has died, but many people will die soon.

    "This is a cruel world!" Victor raised his hand and shot through an ant man''s head. His dark eyes were cold.
