"She's already gone to the Sixth Street!" Ning Yanlan used Stone Breath to check Leng Yue's location.

"So fast? Only a few hours have passed, how did it get to Sixth Street!" Jiang Yuan asked, puzzled.

Ning Yanlan exerted all her strength to activate the Stone Breath. After receiving the feedback, she paused for a while and adjusted her state before solemnly saying, "The Seventh Street has fallen. All those who did not have time to evacuate have died there! Including the 100,000 civilians who originally lived in the Seventh Street, and the hundreds of human Spirit Awakeners who went to provide support."

"They're all dead?" Jiang Yuan was shocked. He hadn't expected the beast tide to be so ferocious, causing such heavy casualties among the human race.

“There are spirit beasts on the Seventh Street, and Stone Breath is blocked outside, so I can’t investigate further!” Ning Yanlan shook her head, indicating that she knew nothing about it.

Although the Stone Breath is incredibly powerful, its effectiveness is greatly reduced when encountering spirit beasts with a level advantage.

"Let's go, let's hurry to Sixth Street!"

The two hurried toward the Sixth Street, witnessing and hearing nothing but the war between humans and monsters along the way. In the lost and occupied West Gate, there was no fixed territory, and all the streets were locked in a tug-of-war.

You humans were strong before, but maybe half an hour later, the orcs will come back and reclaim their territory. The territory may remain the same, but the death toll will keep rising.

Fourth Street was cleared out a few hours ago, but now there are still many monsters here. The only good thing is that Fourth Street has sent all the surviving civilians to safety.

The situation on Fifth Street was similar, but because the South City was a safe zone that had taken in many refugees, it was difficult for such a large number of civilians to be evacuated completely in the first place, and several thousand people remained.

"Apostle, there are still people here!" Ning Yanlan suddenly stopped in her tracks.

There are very few people left in the Fifth Street Mutual Aid Association. The association itself is a public welfare organization, but here, enthusiasm alone is not enough. What is more important is strength, and there are very few strong members in the mutual aid association, or to put it another way, there are very few strong members who are willing to do good deeds for free.

"Never mind that, let's go straight to Sixth Street!" Jiang Yuan said decisively.

The Fifth Street has already evacuated most of its people after the first evacuation. Many of those who were unable to evacuate were either uncooperative or had their own reasons. Rather than rescuing such a small number of people, it would be better to go to the Sixth Street to assist the majority of the population.

It is conceivable that with such a large beast tide, it would be very difficult for the Sixth Street to evacuate. Presumably, only a very small portion of the hundreds of thousands of civilians would be able to evacuate, and the rest would have no chance to leave at all. Therefore, Jiang Yuan made a very correct choice in his decision.

“But that’s a school!” Ning Yanlan pointed to a spot.

"It's relatively safe here. I'm sure the school will organize their evacuation!" Jiang Yuan reminded himself to be rational. Acting on emotion at this time would only lead to more civilian deaths. It doesn't matter who dies, the best option now is to save as many people as possible.

“But!” Ning Yanlan hesitated, her heart aching. “That’s a full-time boarding school. After the disaster, the South City was sealed off, and many people chose to stay at the school for safety. They had a chance to leave when Fifth Street was evacuated, but they chose to be among the last to leave so that the residents could evacuate first. But they didn’t expect the school to be surrounded by spirit beasts, and now they can’t leave even if they want to!”

"There are so many people, we can't abandon them!"

Ning Yanlan gripped Jiang Yuan's hand tightly, trying to get him to change his mind.

"Moreover, the people of the Sixth Street have human Spirit Awakeners to help them! But they are all alone and helpless!"

Ning Yanlan's words silenced Jiang Yuan. In the face of life and death, no one is wrong; the only wrong thing is the endless killing.

"Let's go. If the two of us can save them, we can give it a try!" Jiang Yuan didn't make any absolute statements. If the school was completely surrounded, there was no need for them to go up there and risk their lives.

Ning Yanlan didn't speak, but led the way. Shi Zhixi had already discovered that the group surrounding the school included not only two eighth-tier holy spirit beasts, but also hundreds of monsters of considerable rank.

The only ones capable of resisting at the school were those passionate and energetic students. The situation was extremely precarious; if they were even a step slower, it would mean more people would die.

Nanwang College is an ordinary junior college in Nancheng. Although it is located in a remote area, the atmosphere is quite good. Most of the students are from other places, so they had nowhere to go after the disaster and most of them stayed at the school.

Although the school is not large, it still has several thousand students. In addition, the Chinese people have a strong sense of solidarity and mutual support, so after the disaster, the number of students at Nanwang Academy increased rather than decreased, and it has developed into a sizable organization.

"Senior Liu, while we still have the strength, let's lead the strongest team in the school to break through!" A boy with a terrified expression shouted as he ran along the road.

"Break through! There are over three thousand people in our school, how can we break through?"

The boy in the lead held a black sword, wore very light sportswear, and had very eye-catching grape-red hair.

"Senior, I don't mean breaking out with the school!" The boy who made the suggestion looked troubled. He pointed to the person next to him and said softly, "As long as we don't take those people from the school with us, those eighth-tier spirit beasts won't notice us. With our strength, we can definitely find a place to break out!"

"Qi Peng, what do you mean? Do you want to abandon the school and live a life of shame?" Senior Liu was furious, his handsome face now contorted with rage.

"Senior, that's not what I meant! You see, there's no other way now. All the Spirit Awakeners in Nancheng have rushed to the front lines to rescue others. If we don't find a way ourselves, we're sure to die!" Qi Peng was almost scared to tears, but intimidated by the prestige of the person in front of him, he still explained why he made the suggestion.

Liu Xiuran paused for a moment before saying heavily, "I have already notified the family, and they should send people to support us soon!"

"We swear to live and die with Nanwang Academy!"

Whether due to infection or something else, this group of young people all shouted slogans.

"Split up and focus on defense. Don't engage the beast horde head-on!" Liu Xiuran warned, but then did the exact opposite of what he was told.

He had to fend off two eighth-tier holy spirit beasts because no one in the entire Nanwang Academy was capable of withstanding the attacks of eighth-tier holy spirit beasts, and once the eighth-tier holy spirit beasts launched their attack, Nanwang Academy would face annihilation.

Therefore, someone had to step forward eventually, and Liu Xiuran was aware of this.

"With great power comes great responsibility! What you can't handle, I will!" Liu Xiuran left decisively, as if he were facing not an eighth-tier holy spirit beast that could kill him with a single blow, but two harmless lapdogs.

However, Liu Xiuran was unaware that his "brothers," who had just shouted with him to "live and die with Nanwang Academy," had already broken through to the weakest point of the beast tide that was besieging the school.
