232: War Goddess

Qin Shilei pondered for a moment, then said, "You should migrate to my Hope City, which is Nanzhuang City."

Hope City now has an inner and outer city, with the outer city's side length being one hundred kilometers, more than enough to accommodate a mere two hundred thousand people.

Qin Shilei had also considered using one of the City Guardian Monuments here.

He still had two City Guardian Monuments in his possession, one of which he decided to use in Puchang City, while the other remained unused.

However, using the City Guardian Monument would not guarantee the complete safety of Longhua City.

The City Guardian Monument could block ninety-nine percent of zombies outside the city, but its effect on insects was much smaller.

The insects that appeared north of Hope City could climb the city walls, and although their speed was very slow, it indicated that the city walls could not completely block the insects.

Longhua City's strength was average; even with a City Guardian Monument, it would likely be breached if insects attacked.

Upon hearing this, Han Hongyu was first delighted, then showed a hint of hesitation.

Ever since his first encounter with Qin Shilei, he had been paying attention to him.

He knew that Qin Shilei was not only the top-ranked person but also the City Lord of Hope City, and Hope City was protected by tall city walls.

Now that Qin Shilei was willing to take in the survivors of Longhua City, Han Hongyu should have been happy.

But once he entered Hope City, his position as City Lord would likely become nominal.

Perhaps seeing the hesitation in Han Hongyu's eyes, Qin Shilei smiled and said, "Once you are safe, I will never hinder City Lord Han's departure. Your Longhua City can choose another suitable place to build a city."

"It was my narrow-mindedness, little brother," Han Hongyu said with a wry smile, "I sincerely thank Brother Qin for his help and acceptance."

After making his decision, Han Hongyu immediately ordered his subordinates to organize the migration.

Qin Shilei also took out a map and quickly finalized the migration route with him.

The insects would likely reach Longhua City in less than half an hour, and the migration of two to three hundred thousand survivors could not be completed in a short time. There would definitely be a tough battle to fight.

Qin Shilei pointed to a spot on the map and instructed, "Duan Tianhe, go to this county town and try to attract as many zombies as possible to this road. Once the survivors of Longhua City pass through, use the zombies to block the insects."

"Once the zombies and insects engage in battle, immediately retreat to Hope City. Do not prolong the fight."

He paused, then said to Han Hongyu, "I will first return to Hope City to bring my pet. You will need to temporarily block the insects here."

"Boss, take Yang Jie back to Hope City first," Duan Tianhe quickly requested.

"Alright."

After speaking, Qin Shilei and Yang Jie jumped onto Xiaoqiang's back.

Xiaoqiang immediately sped towards Hope City like a flash of lightning.

Not to mention Han Hongyu's side arranging helicopters to slow down the insect's attack.

Qin Shilei's side, however, had Xiaoqiang reach his maximum speed.

The immense airflow made Yang Jie cling to Xiaoqiang's back, tightly gripping his feathers to avoid being blown away by the strong wind.

Qin Shilei kept sending messages in the chat channel.

Soon, his message was seen by the specially arranged person and conveyed to An Qian.

Nowadays, many people use the national chat channel to spread news.

Although the information on it refreshes too quickly, making communication less convenient, it is still a good method.

More than ten minutes later, the two met in the air.

"Take this ring with you for now, and be careful," Qin Shilei handed the Qiankun Ring to An Qian.

"Okay, then I'll go ahead," An Qian stood on Xiaoqing's back and continued to rush towards Longhua City.

Qin Shilei continued to rush back, and after dropping off Yang Jie at Hope City, he immediately went to the Insect World, put the Gold Beetle into his pet space, and then rushed back to Longhua City without stopping.

At this moment, the insects had already arrived outside Longhua City.

Looking at the dense swarm of Scythe Beetles and a small number of Silver Beetles in the middle outside the city, many survivors on the defense line turned pale, and a small number of people began to tremble all over.

Longhua City had about a thousand Bronze Realm survivors; apart from a small number who went to manage the migration, most of them stood on the defense line.

However, most of these survivors had just advanced to the Bronze Realm, and in terms of strength compared to the insects, they had no advantage whatsoever.

Coupled with the vast disparity in numbers between the two sides, the fact that these people had not yet fled in disarray at this moment showed that Han Hongyu's usual management was quite good.

Zeng Deyuan said worriedly, "City Lord, if this continues, once the insects climb the defense line and cause casualties, these people will likely immediately withdraw and flee."

Han Hongyu also understood this. He had just given a pre-battle mobilization speech, but the effect was minimal.

Just as he was about to speak again to ignite everyone's fighting spirit, he suddenly saw An Qian spread her Phoenix Wings and fly into mid-air.

"I am An Qian of the Golden Realm. What is there to fear from mere insects? Watch me roast these stink bugs with fire."

An Qian, in her fiery red battle skirt, flew into the swarm of insects like a female War God, with an unstoppable momentum.

Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix!

Suddenly, a giant Phoenix phantom appeared above An Qian's head, surrounded by countless fiery red birds.

"Die for me!"

The Heavenly Phoenix Sword swung forward, and the Phoenix phantom, carrying raging flames, charged towards the various insects around.

In the blink of an eye, those insects were burned to ashes.

The treasure chests, crystals, and ability orbs dropped by the insects were collected by the Qiankun Ring.

Now, when An Qian performs Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, she no longer needs to stay in place.

Her figure flickered, and she continued to kill the insects on the right, accompanied by the Phoenix phantom.

With one move, she killed thousands of insects.

"Stinky bugs, come again!"

The Phoenix phantom faded, and An Qian immediately performed Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix again.

Three consecutive ultimate skills incinerated a multitude of insects near the defense line.

Such a violent and mythical ultimate skill left everyone dumbfounded for a moment.

"Goddess An is mighty!"

"The female War God is invincible!"

"Female War God!"

"Female War God!"

Someone started it, and then everyone shouted the female War God's name in unison.

At this moment, everyone's morale was completely ignited, and their fear was swept away.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, An Qian spread her Phoenix Wings and flew back onto the defense line.

"The rest is up to you. I need to recover my energy," An Qian sat cross-legged, took out two crystals, and began to absorb them.

To outsiders, she waved her hand, and the insects turned into ashes, incredibly powerful, but her consumption was also astonishing.

Even after advancing to the Golden Realm, she could only use her ultimate skills five or six times at most.

Without An Qian's suppression, the insects quickly rushed forward again.

The survivors of Longhua City launched their attacks one after another.

Zhang Xiaoli moved along the entire defense line, sniping at the Silver Beetles.

Less than five minutes into close combat, crises frequently appeared on various defense lines.

The disparity in strength between the two sides was simply too great.

"City Lord, we can't hold on! Let's retreat quickly. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave at all!"

Zeng Deyuan said with a panicked expression.

Han Hongyu turned to look at the migrating crowd in the distance and said in a deep voice, "If we retreat, those people will probably be instantly torn to pieces by the insects. As a City Lord, how can I abandon my people and flee?"

"Besides, Miss An and the others who came to help us haven't left, so what face do we have to retreat?"

Although he said this, he also knew that the city could not be defended. Collapse was probably imminent.

More than a hundred survivors on the defense line had already been wounded or killed, and these casualties were still continuously expanding.

An Qian had just used her ultimate skills twice again, and now she could only deal with the Silver Beetles climbing onto the defense line through normal attacks.

If no miracle occurred, the people on the defense line would soon be overwhelmed by the insects, and the migrating civilians would also be caught and eaten by the insects.
