Chapter 62: Two-Pronged Attack
If his father’s warnings were true, then his family was going to be in danger soon. He needed to get stronger to make sure he could handle anything that attacked them.
Jason called out to the Legion and began to explain his new plan of action. Jason had initially planned to attack the eastern entrance next before moving onto the southern entrance, but now that the ants in the colony were expecting him, Jason was going to be carrying out a two-pronged attack.
Jason had enough points to make one more rook and promote four of the Pawn Rank II subordinates to Pawn Rank III. If he did that, then he would have two Rooks and twenty Rook subordinates and one of them could lead the charge at one of the entrances alone.
Jason told four Pawn Rank II scouts to go ahead of the Legion to both of the entrances. Two to each one.
’Report back with information on what the colony is doing. If they are preparing to launch an attack here, then send a signal.’
Jason gave them this order and they all screeched in understanding before they took off to go and do as they were told. Jason still wasn’t certain of how far he could communicate with the ants, but from the fights that he had with the colony here, he was at least sure that he could communicate with them over the distance between tunnel entrances.
’It should be about one kilometer. Beyond that, the signals get a little distorted. System, is there a set distance for communication?’
[No, the user does not have a specific distance for communication with his Legion. Communication range increases with the user’s strength, so the user must improve his overall strength before he will be able to communicate over longer distances.]
’Yeah, that makes sense.’
