318: Blood and sorrow!

On the tall and majestic city wall, time passed by little by little.

The sky also grew darker.

On the distant horizon, the beast tide, like a surging wave, swept over, covering the sky and earth.

On the city wall, the anxiety of every Martial Artist accumulated as the beast tide approached… "It's about to begin."

Chen Fan said, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

The trembling of the ground became increasingly violent… The Spiritual power of hundreds of thousands of Shancheng City Martial Artists instantly sharpened, and they all looked forward.

Although many of them had already killed exotic beasts in the wilderness.

This was their first time facing such a large-scale beast tide.

Everyone's heart was heavy.

"Comrades!"

At this moment, the middle-aged man who was Shancheng City's top combatant and mayor soared into the air.

"I, [Mayor's Name], the mayor of Shancheng City, and also the general commander of this defense battle!"

"As you can all see, the beast tide is coming soon!"

On the city wall, hundreds of loudspeakers simultaneously blared, emitting a man's voice.

"We only have this one chance; if we want to live, we can only fight with our lives!"

"Please remember, when disaster strikes, we are all one; we will not abandon and we will never give up!"

"I, [Mayor's Name], cannot promise too much. As the top Martial Artist of Shancheng City, I will only use my life to honor your glory!"

"Even if I stand until the last moment, I will never give up!!!"

As the voice faded, the city wall fell silent.

Chen Fan watched the Shancheng City mayor slowly descend, his emotions inexplicably stirred.

Is this the role of a leader?

True emotional output doesn't require too many flowery words.

Words from the depths of one's heart often move people the most!

Just a few simple words from [Mayor's Name] made Chen Fan and the others feel the power within them.

"It's our turn to fight!" Chen Fan used Spiritual power to condense his voice into a line, transmitting it separately to Ma Liang and the others.

Even though they came to this world this time to complete a mission and earn points.

After Mayor [Mayor's Name] finished speaking, their attitudes had completely changed.

They were going to defend the city!

To help Shancheng City completely resist this super-large-scale exotic beast tide!

Suddenly—

The sound of [Mayor's Name]'s heavy breathing came from the loudspeaker: "All Martial Artists, take cover!!!"

Hundreds of thousands of people immediately dropped to the ground.

"First round of saturation bombardment, fire!"

...Almost at the same moment the voice fell, heavy artillery, mountain artillery, field artillery, and howitzer positions, as well as missile detachments in different areas, simultaneously pressed the firing button.

Whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

Streaks of light, carrying immense power, tore through the night sky, like falling comets, whistling towards the beast tide.

Boom!!!

Boom boom!!!

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

Earth-shattering explosions resounded.

The distant horizon seemed to explode into dozens of miniature suns.

The light illuminated the entire atmosphere.

Bright as day!

At the same time, gray mushroom clouds rose from the dense beast tide.

The earth trembled violently.

The clouds were violently torn apart!

As the aftermath of the explosion swept in all directions, waves of shockwaves blew over.

Everyone felt a tightness in their chests, and it grew increasingly suffocating… Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

As the streaks of light continued to cut through the sky, they fiercely blocked the surging advance of the beast tide.

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

The explosions continued to reverberate, and everyone felt their eardrums vibrating.

Half a minute later, the explosions gradually ceased, and the shockwaves quickly passed.

Everyone stood up, shaking off a thin layer of dust from their bodies.

However, before the Martial Artists could exchange glances, a second, incredibly clear command rang out from the loudspeaker: "Second volley, prepare!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"Fire!!!"

"..."

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

"Everyone take cover, third wave fire!"

"..."

"..."

"Rumble rumble rumble..."

"Everyone take cover, fourth wave fire!"

"..."

"Fifth wave fire!"

"Sixth wave fire!"

...Years of accumulation from a large city were squandered at this moment.

All for the sake of reducing the number of this beast tide as much as possible.

Although everyone knew that even small nuclear bombs had very limited damage to high-tier exotic beasts.

However, being able to kill more low-tier monsters was beneficial to the Shancheng City Martial Artists.

After so many waves of bombardment, clusters of gray clouds floated over the entire Shancheng City.

Since the first wave of bombardment began, these gray clouds had not dispersed; instead, they had piled up even more.

"Alright, everyone, you can stand up now!"

Mayor [Mayor's Name]'s voice rang out again from the loudspeaker.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

Many Martial Artists exhaled a mouthful of stale air, their eyes growing sharper.

Click!

Some Martial Artists stood up and stretched their bodies, each like a straight spear, waiting only to break through the formation!

Clang clang clang!!!

The sound of swords being drawn rang out, and almost all Martial Artists drew their weapons.

In this world, there are no professions like mages.

There are only Martial Artists who fight in close combat to determine victory or defeat.

Therefore, facing this endless beast tide, all Martial Artists could only use their physical bodies to confront it!

"Even our Hanxia doesn't have such deep reserves for this volley!" Xue Zhan looked at the deep, huge craters in the distance and couldn't help but exclaim.

"If Modu had such strong firepower back then, I could bury any number of monsters!" Ma Liang's eyes showed a hint of envy.

"Yes, stronger strength means stronger reserves. Dragon Kingdom truly lives up to its name as the strongest nation on Blue Star."

"I just don't know how many exotic beasts were eliminated after this bombardment!"

Thump thump thump!!

Not long after Wang Teng's voice faded, a violent tremor echoed from the ground again.

As the smoke gradually dispersed, the Martial Artists saw the devastation on the battlefield.

Unfortunately, when they saw it, the hearts of all Martial Artists simultaneously sank… Because at this moment, the beast tide could no longer be called a beast tide.

But rather an endless ocean composed of exotic beasts!

On the distant horizon, the gaps that had been temporarily formed by the bombardment had already been filled by the subsequent surging beast tide.

The endless, terrifying beast tide made one feel despair at a single glance.

Such a number was far beyond what humans could easily resist.

Even a single city was nowhere near enough.

Almost all Martial Artists looked at these beast tides with fear in their eyes.

Only Chen Fan and his group stared at the beast tides without blinking, each person showing a thoughtful expression.

Even the large pits were filled with some enormous monsters.

Roars that reached the sky, seemingly like the battle horn of the beast sea, ignited the ferocity of these monsters!

Roar roar roar!!!

Howl!

Roar roar roar!!!

...One beast roared, and ten thousand beasts followed.

The continuous, ferocious beast roars reached the city wall.

At the same time, this ocean of exotic beasts was continuously approaching the foremost fortress… "Bombardment ended!"

"Second round, First Fortress, Third Fortress… Nineteenth Fortress, Twenty-first Fortress, all move out to resist the beast tide!"

"Other fortresses, begin artillery support!!!"

"Battle Dragon Lord, Fierce Tiger Lord, Shadow, Blood Wolf… all move out!!!"

Following Mayor [Mayor's Name]'s repeated commands.

On the city wall, some Martial Artists wearing different types of equipment stepped forward, their expressions serious.

Without exception, everyone was ready to face death.

"Death Squad One!"

"Death Squad Two!"

...Boom!!

Boom!!

On the city wall, powerful roars of aura continuously erupted.

Teams led by Universe Rank and composed of Astral Rank Martial Artists charged down the city wall.

At the same time, from the fortresses in front of the city wall, all warriors with anti-matter bombs strapped to their bodies poured out, all fearless of death!

From this moment on,

The great war between humans and exotic beasts officially entered close-quarters combat… Tens of thousands of Astral Rank Martial Artists, led by powerful Universe Rank Martial Artists, swiftly rushed to the edge of the beast sea.

In an instant, a Great Wall formed by Martial Artists suddenly appeared!

They would be the first line of defense against the beast tide.

The lowest, Astral Rank Three.

The highest, Universe Rank Three!

Thousands of auras erupted, and the storm that spread out together, intertwined, causing the monsters charging at the very front to briefly pause.

"Kill!!!"

"Charge!!!"

Thump thump thump… Tens of thousands of Martial Artists launched themselves forward, like meteors flashing with light, fearlessly plunging into the ocean of exotic beasts, erupting into bloody splashes.

"Pfft!!!"

"Crack!!!"

"Boom boom boom!!!"

...The sounds of slashing, roaring, clashing, exploding… all deafening, seemingly without end.

"Second group, prepare!!!" The mayor roared.

Above the city wall, another group of Martial Artists, their spirits sharp, were ready to go!

"It's our turn!" The one-armed old man patted away the dust, his entire demeanor instantly changing.

"I don't know how many exotic beasts we can kill this time, but it no longer matters!" Another young girl nodded, drawing the curved saber from behind her back.

In the main battlefield, the Martial Artists of the first wave of impact had already suffered significant casualties.

Especially the Universe Rank Martial Artists fighting high-tier exotic beasts, almost each person had to face the encirclement of three, four, or even five exotic beasts, so their demise was extremely rapid.

"This time, I'll go with you!" Chen Fan glanced at the one-armed old man, then looked at Mayor [Mayor's Name], transmitting his voice with Spiritual power: "Mayor [Mayor's Name], please inform the other Martial Artists to avoid the area where the six of us will be fighting as much as possible, otherwise they might be accidentally injured."

The sudden voice made the middle-aged mayor slightly stunned, then his expression quickly turned ecstatic and excited, and he quickly said: "Yes, yes, yes, thank you, sirs!"

Roar roar roar!!

Amidst terrifying beast roars, some exotic beasts that were not intercepted accelerated.

At this moment, the distance between the front end of the beast sea and the fortress was less than five hundred meters.

It was also at this moment that [Mayor's Name] hoarsely ordered: "Second team, battle!"

On the city wall, including Chen Fan and the other six, everyone launched themselves forward.

"Kill!"

Chen Fan's voice boomed like thunder, leading the charge, bringing tens of thousands of Martial Artists from the second team, and rushing into the distant beast sea.

As soon as the two sides met, it was a fierce, white-hot battle!

The earth shook,

The sky trembled.

The moment Chen Fan and the others joined the battlefield, a battle far more brutal than before immediately erupted…
