106: Abyss full-scale attack!

The Tier 6 professionals from the Lionheart Kingdom and the Free Empire watched their dozen or so fallen comrades, their faces as resentful as pig liver.

How could this be!?

This isn't right, is it?

Inside the Secret Realm, they should have had the advantage…

Ever since the God grade secret realm appeared, the two nations had conspired to ambush Central China, solely to seize the God-level items for themselves!

Tens of millions of civilians on the border? They could be abandoned.

Tier 6 powerhouses? They could be sacrificed!

All for the chance to advance to Tier 7 and claim the world's first God grade secret realm!

If successful, there was even a chance to create the world's strongest professional!

If that were true, everything would be worth it!

Once they had the world's strongest power, wouldn't they be able to get whatever they wanted?

Their first step was quite successful, securing 34 Secret Realm slots!

This should have been the beginning of victory.

Why did it turn out like this…

The pale, profound-faced Blood King Dracula gritted his teeth, looking at the Secret Realm members who had already lost half their numbers!

This meant his hope of advancing to Tier 7 was now only half-remaining.

At this moment, the Central China group looked at the enemy's corpses, their worries greatly dispersed.

“Could it be that we still have hope?”

“The enemy troops seem to have been instantly killed. Perhaps the monsters in the God grade secret realm are too powerful, and our people might also be in danger!”

“No matter what, as long as those two countries don't seize the treasure, that's enough!”

Wu Ming first sent people to return the bodies of the fallen to Central China.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. No matter what, as long as their opponents suffered losses, it was a good thing for them!

Although, for now, the numerical disparity within the Secret Realm remained significant.

However, at this moment.

Bad news arrived!

A Demon Suppression Army messenger rushed over frantically.

Messengers were among the fastest professions, arriving almost simultaneously with mobile phone messages; in ancient times, this would be akin to an urgent dispatch over eight hundred li!

He rushed to Wu Ming's side and whispered in his ear:

“Chief, the Abyss is launching a full-scale attack! The border has fallen!”

“What!?”

Wu Ming's emotional control was already very good, but upon hearing this news, his pupils constricted, and his face remained extremely unnatural.

The full-scale Abyss attack was too shocking a piece of news!

In the history of the extraordinary era, it had only happened once, over thirty years ago.

At that time, the King-level N/A appeared for the first time.

It led to the destruction of thirty-eight countries on Blue Star.

Central China suffered countless city losses, eventually dividing into five major regions to jointly resist the enemy.

Has the Abyss's second full-scale assault finally arrived today?

Wu Ming's mind reeled, and he forced himself to regain composure.

But the people opposite him still noticed his abnormality…

“Hehe? Could it be that your Central China has encountered a N/A attack first?”

Knight King Arthur's expression was mocking, “Hurry back and defend with your people! Don't delay!”

Hearing this, Dracula's expression also brightened, “That's right, just give up on the God grade secret realm… Hahaha!”

This was exactly what Wu Ming was worried about. If he took people back, what about those in the Secret Realm?

If he didn't take people back, what about the N/A attack?

At this moment, the Demon Suppression Army messenger looked at the other party and said loudly:

“Two Tier 6 sirs, I advise you to go back and check as well…”

“Central China's border was only temporarily breached.”

“But according to frontline reports, the battlefields in the Lionheart Kingdom and the Free Empire have already seen the N/A reach their capitals!”

“What!!??”

Dracula and Arthur, as well as countless Tier 6s from both nations, were all greatly shocked.

They didn't care about losing tens of millions of civilians at the border…

But their capitals housed nobles, high-ranking officials, and even their descendants and relatives; they absolutely could not afford any losses!

The next moment, Dracula suddenly looked as if he had realized something, and said calmly:

“Heh, a low-level trick! You want to trick us into withdrawing our troops?”

“If the capital were attacked, how would we not receive any news!?”

The messenger scratched his head, also a bit puzzled.

But Wu Ming understood now and scoffed:

“You have no Tier 6s at your border, and your garrisons crumbled at a touch. Where would survivors come from to deliver news?”

“All of you came to intercept us. How long could the few people left at your border hold back the Abyss?”

Upon hearing this, Dracula's expression instantly froze.

Panic spread among the powerhouses of the Lionheart and Freedom nations.

At this point, a question arises: Why do borders need Tier 6s to guard them?

Because in large-scale wars, the strongest individuals need to 'exchange pieces,' meaning one-on-one combat.

Only when one's own powerhouses hold back the opponent's powerhouses can the armies below defend in an orderly manner.

Otherwise, once a top-tier N/A appears and there are no powerhouses to 'exchange pieces'…

Then the army before them becomes a target to be mowed down like grass.

The powerhouses of the Lionheart and Freedom nations naturally understood this.

But they were gambling, gambling that the harm caused by the N/A might not be that great…

Clearly, they lost the gamble.

And they lost big!

A Tier 6 'Cannoneer' from the Lionheart Kingdom immediately turned to leave:

“No, my four wives are still in the capital! Nothing can happen to them!”

“I also have to go back and save my son!”

“Dad, oh Dad—!”

For a moment, countless Tier 6 professionals from the Lionheart and Freedom nations looked anxious, hastily returning to defend.

Only seven remained, including Dracula and Arthur.

Seeing this, Wu Ming quickly grabbed Gun King Tong Mo and said, “Brother Mo, I'll have to rely on you here!”

Gun King Tong Mo nodded seriously.

“Qing Yi, Great Sun, Hundred Flowers, I ask the three of you to also stay here and ensure the pioneering team is brought back.”

“The rest of you will return with me to defend the border!”

The full-scale Abyss invasion was a looming shadow over everyone's hearts; they dared not respond with anything less than full effort.

After confirming the border situation.

Wu Ming quickly withdrew half of the Tier 6 powerhouses and headed to Lin Yuan City…

The remaining Tier 6s outside the Secret Realm became four against seven.

…

Inside the Secret Realm, the battlefield near the exchange point was turbulent.

After Fox Fairy instantly killed Os with six bolts of heavenly lightning, the chaos on the battlefield reached an unprecedented level.

“Even Boss Os was instantly killed, can we really win this?”

“What's there to be afraid of! That must be their last bit of strength; now it's our turn to charge!”

“We still have an absolute numerical advantage!”

Amidst the roars of the Lionheart and Freedom professionals, they began to concentrate their forces for a counterattack, and various dazzling long-range attacks converged once more.

If it were the previous Fox Fairy, she would be out of mana by now.

But now, having converted to spiritual power, her total consumption was still less than one-third, making it the perfect time to fight!

Fox Fairy activated 'Universal Borrowing Technique,' manipulating earth elements on the ground to construct earthen protective shields, easily defending against a round of concentrated fire.

Then, with her left hand, Ice Seal, and her right hand, Fox Fairy Fire.

Vast spiritual power gathered; the range and effect of just one skill were enough to suppress the offensive of a small enemy squad!

Ice and fire, like a mountain roaring and a sea raging, swept towards both sides of the enemy formation!

The battlefield was dominated by the power of one fox!

Sword Saint Yi Xing's expression was one of shock, but more so of eagerness:

“Should we make our move?”

It was clear that Fox Fairy could suppress the attacks of nearly twenty opponents, but she wasn't strong enough to directly kill them… after all, the opponents weren't just weaklings.

Moreover, Fox Fairy wasn't alone on the battlefield.

Ye Ze nodded slightly, gesturing to Liu Anran, “Don't let them escape!”

The latter understood, and spatial laws slowly condensed in her hand.

And with a thought, Ye Ze mobilized the hundred Squirrel Shadow Clones on the outer perimeter of the encirclement!

The entire outermost forest was filled with murderous intent in the shadows.

“Now let's see whose people are more numerous?”
