28: Big Crisis! Alien beasts invade Jinghai City!

Just as the Seventh-Order Beast Emperor BOSS was about to strike, a massive figure suddenly charged at it, accompanied by a violent sandstorm that shattered all the weak dire beasts in its path.

"In the territory of Daxia, how can I allow you dire beasts to act so wantonly? You want to eat us all? Get past me first!"

Senior Beast Master Mu, a Seventh-Order Peak Grandmaster Beast Tamer, rode his soul-bound beast, the Green-Eyed Sand Eagle, and charged straight at the leading BOSS.

He knew that only by holding back this Beast Emperor BOSS could the people below possibly hold out until reinforcements arrived. Otherwise, if this Beast Emperor BOSS were left to wreak havoc, there would be countless casualties.

He was well aware of the terror of a Seventh-Order Beast Emperor BOSS; it possessed the fearsome power to destroy an entire city.

"Old thing, do you think you can stop my path of slaughter just by yourself? Let your blood serve to open this feast of slaughter!"

A massive aura of slaughter and blood radiated from the Dark Blade Beast. The Dark Blade on its body shimmered with a cold light, and every movement emitted a crisp, metallic clashing sound.

This was an extremely terrifying Beast Emperor BOSS, a dire beast with strong melee and defensive capabilities that could also fly.

Every time its sharp bladed wings flapped, visible ripples appeared in the air, as if it were slicing through space itself.

Before facing this Beast Emperor BOSS, Senior Beast Master Mu had already prepared for death; he decided to use his life to hold this Beast Emperor BOSS in the air.

As for defeating the opponent, that was absolutely impossible. Not to mention that they were both Seventh-Order; even if he advanced to the Eighth-Order, he still wouldn't be the opponent's match.

Because the BOSS's weapon bloomed with a golden legendary luster—this was a legendary-grade weapon!

Not to mention that it also possessed a full set of epic-grade equipment. Conversely, for himself, the best equipment he had was only a single piece of epic-grade gear, which the nation had awarded him in recognition of his many contributions.

The disparity in strength was too vast!

But Daxia's Beast Tamers never feared death; they possessed an iron will because they knew that behind them were their compatriots, friends, and loved ones!

Boom! A fierce battle erupted in the sky.

But no one could provide support to Old Mu, simply because they had to defend the city and protect the million residents.

"Old Mu has already held off the Beast Emperor BOSS. Everyone else, follow me, the City Lord, to kill the invading dire beasts! We must not let them get one step closer to the shelter. Even if we die, we must hold out until reinforcements arrive!"

Han Tianlei was also a Seventh-Order Grandmaster Beast Tamer, but his strength was still a bit inferior to Old Mu's. He had already locked his sights on the Seventh-Order Beast King BOSS.

"Yes! We will defend Jinghai City to the death!"

The soldiers of the Military Beast Legion maneuvered their beasts into a defensive formation and engaged in a desperate fight with the dire beasts that had rushed down first. For a time, flesh and blood splattered, and the sounds of slaughter became the main theme of the city.

But the number of invading dire beasts this time was too great; it was no exaggeration to call it a dire beast tide. Both in Rank and quantity, they far exceeded the defensive forces of Jinghai City.

In just a short while, there were already many casualties.

"Can the defensive barrier not be activated either?" Ye Fei, the commander of the Jinghai City Military Beast Legion, asked, burning with anxiety.

"Reporting to Commander Ye, it's impossible! It cannot be activated at all. The power of the black barrier has sealed off all spatial effects!" the soldier responsible for the barrier said, gritting his teeth.

Without the defensive barrier, Jinghai City could only let the dire beasts continue to invade and assault. At this rate, let alone holding out for two hours, it would be difficult for them to even hold out for half an hour.

"Then all personnel, follow me into battle!" After arranging the battle plan, Ye Fei took the lead to charge in. His goal was very clear: to join forces with the City Lord and hold off the Beast King BOSS.

Beast Tamers from branches of major forces like the Yanlong Guild, Chilin Guild, and Zhao Cai Mao Beast Firm also joined the fray one after another.

Although the guild headquarters were all in the dire beast world, those in the major cities of the real world were merely branch strongholds, and there were not many high-Rank Beast Tamers.

In a third-rate city like Jinghai City, their strongest were at most Seventh-Order combatants. But with a great disaster imminent, they were willing to contribute their efforts and join hands to protect their motherland and home!

People who were originally fleeing stopped their escape upon seeing the Military Beast Legion and the city garrison launching a frenzied attack.

"If we keep fleeing like this, we will only die faster. Rather than dying while fleeing, it is better to resist. Even in death, we will be martyrs!"

Someone took the lead to counterattack, and the others gritted their teeth, deciding to fight it out with this group of dire beasts.

"Damn it! Let's fight these scumbags to the death!"

When danger loomed, the street thugs who were originally idle and only knew how to bully the weak were now filled with mettle.

Most of them had soul-bound beasts of low Rank and limited achievements, and they started to slack off once they reached a certain age.

But they were also sons of Daxia. With foreign enemies invading their home, they would also exhaust their meager strength to protect their homeland.

"Grandpa! Where are you going?" Inside the shelter, a little boy held onto an old man's leg tightly.

"Child, Grandpa is going to fight. The dire beasts invading this time are extraordinary. Relying solely on the soldiers of the Military Beast Legion, I'm afraid they can't hold them off. Listen to Grandpa, stay here properly. Grandpa is going to contribute his last bit of strength."

As he spoke, the old man cruelly left his grandson alone and walked out of the shelter with a blade in hand.

"Right! We cannot just wait for death like this. Children and women stay behind; everyone else, come out with me and fight!"

Other old men also united one after another. They could die, but the future of the motherland could not be harmed. The future still needed them to guard their home.

A will of iron and blood began to permeate Jinghai City, this third-rate city. At this moment, everyone was united as one, with only one goal: to stop the dire beasts at any cost!

"Wuu! Mommy~" On the ruined street, a little girl was crying loudly in fear, but she was clutching a wooden stick in her hand.

She had become separated from her family.

But at this very moment, everyone was fighting hard against the invading dire beasts and simply could not spare the time to rescue those who hadn't managed to hide in the shelter.

"Sss!" A strange dire beast had set its sights on the little girl. Its mouth was enormous and filled with sharp teeth, and its scarlet tongue was covered in barbs.

【Name: Mouth-Eating Beast】【Rank: Third-Order LV65】

"Big monster, Niuniu is not afraid of you!" The little girl cried in fear while pointing her wooden stick at the dire beast.

"Hehehe, this Human Race girl must be very delicious!" The Mouth-Eating Beast grinned wildly, speaking in beast language. It immediately opened its bloody maw, intending to eat the little girl in one bite.

"Ah!!!" The little girl closed her eyes in fright, yet she waved the wooden stick frantically.

Suddenly! A figure descended from the sky and crushed the Mouth-Eating Beast's skull with a single kick.

Without feeling the pain of death, the little girl slowly opened her eyes in terror, seeing a scene she would never forget for the rest of her life.

A handsome big brother, riding on a Toad that was flashing with orange light, had easily crushed the terrifying big monster from just a moment ago.

This was the coolest Toad she had ever seen.

"Little sister, stay where you are and don't wander off. Wait for the adults to come and pick you up."

The person who arrived was none other than Qin Yun!

When the dire beasts began to invade, Qin Yun already had a battle plan in his mind.

Because he was only Second-Order now, although his attributes were very strong, the Rank gap was too large. By himself, he could not knock the Seventh-Order Beast Emperor BOSS down to half health to then use the Infinite Devour effect to kill it instantly.

He had to wait, wait for the Seventh-Order big shot in the sky to fight the Seventh-Order Beast Emperor BOSS to a near stalemate. Only then, by joining forces with the Seventh-Order big shot, would it be possible to knock the opponent down to half health!

Therefore, he had to save his two trump cards: Beast God Form and Infinite Devour!

And for his other four exclusive Beast Skills to be most effective, he had to wait until most of the dire beasts had appeared and gathered together.

At this moment, the number of dire beasts appearing from the countless vortex channels in the sky began to decrease.

Qin Yun knew that the dire beasts invading this time had almost all appeared.

Then, next... it was his turn to strike!
