As time ticked by, the situation on the battlefield became increasingly dire.

At this moment, all the ranged soldiers under Tengchong City had climbed the city walls and were unleashing their firepower on the strange beasts that were frantically destroying the city walls.

Even so, some parts of the city wall were still damaged, with the sharp claws of the beasts carving white marks into the large bluestone of the wall.

Although Wang Zheng was blocking the way at the front, his taunt range was only forty meters. Moreover, his vision was blocked by poisonous insects, and there were many enormous beasts among those being taunted.

At this time, all the strange beasts were piled up together, which meant that the strange beasts on both sides were not affected by the fierce battle roars, so the defensive task on the city wall was not easy.

As the number of corpses piled up below the city walls increased, many strange beasts even stepped on the bodies of their companions, trying to jump into Tengchong City.

Although they have been driven back for the time being, it is inevitable that the monsters will rush into the city if things continue like this.

Just as Ke An was about to rearrange his melee squad to block them, a loud "boom" was suddenly heard.

The violent explosion caused the city walls to shake, but it quickly subsided.

It turned out that a Clawed Beast was using the corpses piled up on the ground as cover to dig a hole from the ground all the way to the corner of the city wall. After digging a small hole in the wall, it crawled in and then exploded.

However, because the Sharp Claw Beast lived underground, the soldiers guarding the city did not discover it immediately.

When they came to their senses and realized something was wrong, the second and third explosions rang out.

Then came a series of crisp "crackling" sounds.

The city wall is cracking...

Although these sharp-clawed beasts are only third-grade exotic beasts, almost all of their evolutionary abilities are concentrated in their pair of steel claws.

Whether it's soft soil or hard bluestone, it's no different from foam under their claws. So they hid underground and then stealthily approached the city wall, launching this suicide attack.

With a series of explosions, coupled with the relentless onslaught of the beast horde.

Finally, after two hours of fighting, a gap of more than 10 meters was blown open in the city wall in the southwest of Tengchong.

With a deafening roar, the city wall cracked and continued to collapse.

Although many strange beasts were buried by the collapsed city walls, even more strange beasts rushed over and charged into the city.

The melee group rushed to provide support the moment the city wall collapsed, but because there were too many high-level beasts, and most of them were tough and thick-skinned, they were forced to retreat steadily into the city, leaving countless corpses along the way.

Among them, the defensive awakeners, after activating their superpowers, tried to use their physical bodies to plug the gaps in the city wall, but they seemed so insignificant under the onslaught of countless beast tides.

At this moment, all the earth-element awakened beings were rushing southwest, hoping to use their abilities to build skyscrapers from the ground and block the gap.

However, an endless tide of beasts arrived, and the ground was littered with the corpses of countless strange beasts, which blocked their path.

Not only were the earth-elemental awakeners unable to reinforce the city walls, but the earthen walls that appeared on the ground were smashed to pieces by the frenzied beasts.

Seeing that there was no way out, a large number of strange beasts had already poured into the city.

Suddenly, a scorching heat emanated from afar, as if all the moisture in the air had evaporated.

Both the beasts and the awakened beings felt a tickle in their throats.

Ke An, who was still directing operations at the city gate, immediately noticed the anomaly and looked up in the direction where the spiritual energy fluctuations were most intense.

Suddenly, a pillar of black and red fire shot into the sky from the distant horde of strange beasts.

The towering pillar of fire rose over a hundred meters high, almost obscuring the entire sky.

It was like a ruby ​​suddenly falling from the sun.

Black and red flames spewed out continuously, causing the surrounding temperature to soar and the air to become incredibly viscous.

The scorching heat seemed to be baking the earth, and the intensely hot air wafted from afar, making it almost impossible to breathe.

The intense heat that scorched the earth melted everything in the distance.

A bottomless pit suddenly appeared on the ground, from which red magma was constantly bubbling up.

Meanwhile, the strange beasts beside the pillar of fire seemed to have lost their minds, roaring wildly.

Although their eyes were filled with fear and their sharp claws dug deep into the ground, they still couldn't control their bodies and lunged towards the sudden, enormous flame.

"Pfft~~ Pfft~~"

A muffled and short sound rang out...

Upon contact with the eerie pillar of fire, the frantically swarming beasts instantly vaporized like moths to a flame.

Whether it was their proud spiritual energy shield, their sturdy skin and flesh, or even their hardest animal bones, they all melted and quickly evaporated after being coated with the black and red substance.

Immediately afterwards, a series of crackling explosions rang out amidst the flames.

In the blink of an eye, one after another high-level beasts vanished into nothingness, leaving only their dying howls echoing endlessly outside the city.
