312: Fight the Beast Tide (Part 1)!

"Let's go, don't look!"

Whoosh—

Wang Teng waved his hand, retracting his Ancient Chaotic Spear.

The next moment, Ma Liang, Xue Zhan, Thunder God, and Hong, the four of them, each took one of the two women, one on the left and one on the right, and advanced at an incredibly terrifying speed.

Rumble!!!

Deafening, terrifying explosions appeared out of nowhere.

Some scarred beasts looked up, only to see a row of small black dots appear in their field of vision, then quickly disappear.

Roar!!!

A sky-shattering roar emanated from the black hole. The surrounding monsters heard it and moved, clearing a wide path.

Then, a long, dark green hoof, thick as an ancient tree, stepped out.

Rumble!!

Where the giant hoof landed, dust rose everywhere.

Amidst the flying dust, a pair of enormous, blood-red eyes gradually emerged, revealing the true outline of this beast... Shancheng City.

Government Building, Seventh Floor Conference Hall.

Dozens of people sat around a circular table, engaged in an extremely tense meeting.

In the central position, a middle-aged man in a gray Zhongshan suit put down a piece of intelligence he was holding and, somewhat fatigued, rubbed his throbbing temples: "Are there still no updates from the three student union members we sent out?"

"Not yet. The last time we received an update was three hours ago!" A person on the right stood up and replied, "However, given the combat prowess of the elites from Shancheng University's Student Union, as long as they don't delve too deep into the beast tide, they should be able to retreat safely."

"You said 'as long as they don't delve too deep'..." The middle-aged man's voice was heavy, and terrifying scenes from the past flashed through his mind.

High-tier beasts, cities destroyed, homes lost... "What about our liaison personnel? Have they found anything?"

"Report, our liaison personnel have detected faint traces of beasts in the directions surrounding the city. Their objective is quite obvious!"

"Quite obvious, you say? Then they're clearly coming for Shancheng City!"

Whoosh—

At these words, everyone was in an uproar.

"Mayor, according to our intelligence personnel's assessment, this beast tide is definitely aiming to completely destroy the entire Shancheng City; there's absolutely no other direction!" A slightly younger man stood up, his voice heavy.

"If Shancheng City is to be destroyed, then let the students of Shancheng University perish with it!"

From an inconspicuous position at the round table, a young man with a student-like appearance, whose chest was embroidered with a symbol of two rivers converging, stood up.

"You won't be needed. Our Shancheng Garrison has long been waiting for this battle. As long as our seeds are safely delivered to Shangjing and other safe places, what does it matter if we stay to fight!"

A white-haired old man, slightly hunched, slowly stood up, his eyes gleaming with resolute light.

"We, the Shancheng Urban Management Brigade, are duty-bound!"

"Shancheng Fourth Garrison, always ready!" "And us, the Two Rivers Resistance Department, are willing to deploy our entire army to jointly resist the beast tide. I refuse to believe that with the ruggedness of our mountains and rivers, we can't defend a fortress city!"

"You must know that among all the fortress cities in Dragon Country, besides the Demon Capital, Gusu City, and Shangjing, we are the only one left. Even if we die in battle, we must at least bite off a piece of the beast tide!"

"..."

By the end of the speech, everyone had stood up, their bodies ablaze with fervent fighting spirit.

They all harbored a willingness to die, solely to resist the beast tide and defend Shancheng City!

"Good, very good!"

The middle-aged mayor straightened his Zhongshan suit and stood up directly, looking at everyone with immense satisfaction.

Suddenly—

The door to the conference hall was abruptly opened, and a group of strangers entered.

"Who are you?"
