The low-level beasts had no fear of death and attacked the defense line fearlessly.
Large missiles bombarded, and artillery fire was fired as densely as raindrops. Blank areas were bombed out by the beast tide, and were instantly filled with the wild beasts behind. There was only one thought in the minds of these wild beasts, to destroy the defense line and kill all humans!
Two-thirds of the Magic City’s army was deployed on the first line of defense. Ammunition was consumed continuously without charge, and stored weapons were transported in and continuously replenished to the first line of defense.
But there were too many wild beasts, and the missiles were immune to some of the wild beasts. Not only could they not cause any damage to the wild beasts, but many missiles were destroyed by high-level wild beasts in mid-air!
The battle was at a stalemate, but the situation on the battlefield was gradually deteriorating.
Ammunition is running out!
Personnel emergency!
The first line of defense is in crisis!
…
As pieces of bad news came into the command center, everyone's faces became more and more solemn.
I hadn't expected the beasts to be so reckless and relentless this time. Unlike before, when they charged, both sides would suffer some damage, and the beast tide would retreat. But now, even with over half of their casualties, the beasts still refused to retreat, and the Demon City's first line of defense was about to be breached!
The Lu family's great ancestor sat in his seat without saying a word. On his left sat the four remaining invincible war gods of the Magic City, Mo Shijiu, Kun Xuan, Chang Sun Jing, and Ruan Yuanchen, the owner of the Sword House who had been practicing in seclusion and not caring about worldly affairs.
Ruan Yuanchen is a sword cultivator with a high level of cultivation. Ordinary invincible war gods are no match for him. He used to live in seclusion in Hanshan Temple on Wulian Mountain. This time, the situation was urgent, and he was invited out of the mountain by Changsun Jing to jointly resist the beast tide.
At this time, the four great war gods were practicing every minute, trying to adjust their condition to the best!
Kunxuan and Mo Shijiu had fought in turns before, and not only did they have little strength left, they also suffered serious internal injuries. Even with the help of the Supreme Ancestor, they could not recover and reach their best condition in such a short time.
The next one they faced was the Beast King, whom they did not dare to provoke easily even at his peak condition, so their confidence in this battle was basically zero.
Changsun Jing closed his eyes and regulated his breathing. He had already adjusted his condition to the best. The reason he was unwilling to open his eyes was that he was worried that the Lu family's supreme ancestor would discover his inner resentment.
It was obvious that they were going to seize the Lu family's leadership in the Magic City and dominate the Magic City in the near future, but the Lu family played a trump card in the end, which not only aborted their plan but also caused the God of War Alliance to lose an invincible God of War.
If it weren't for the sudden beast tide, I would probably have been killed on the spot by the Lu family's supreme ancestor!
He was unwilling to accept the loss of both his wife and his army. He was a little curious about who the Lu family's supreme ancestor was and why the Lu family had never used him before?
Ruan Yuanchen, the master of the Sword Hut, closed his eyes to rest. Although he usually lived in seclusion, he was curious about who the Lu family's Grand Ancestor was. Before the apocalypse, there had never been such a person in the ancient martial arts world!
Almost all the war god-level warriors in the Magic City were present in the house, except Lu Tian who was in seclusion and did not show up. All the war god-level warriors, whether in the open or hiding in the dark, were invited to come.
They were reluctant but had no choice. If the Demon City was breached by the beast tide, even if they were war god-level warriors, they would be in danger of death. If the city was breached, they would surely die. It would be better to fight with all their strength. Maybe there would be a glimmer of hope!
"Report to the commander, the first line of defense has been lost, and the beasts are approaching the second line of defense!"
A communications officer appeared in the command center.
All the war gods and stronger warriors who were regulating their breathing opened their eyes and looked at the communications officer in unison.
Unexpectedly, the wild beasts broke through the first line of defense so quickly, much earlier than everyone expected!
"Keep scouting!"
Temporary commander Zhao Tieying had a solemn expression on his face, and his voice contained too many complex emotions, which eventually converged into one sentence!
After the communications officer left, everyone realized that the second line of defense might be breached soon, so everyone seized the time and adjusted their mentality. They were the last line of defense of the Magic City, and their victory or defeat would determine the future fate of the Magic City!
The command center is fifty kilometers away from the Magic City, behind the last line of defense.
The three lines of defense are ten kilometers apart. Once the wild beast breaks through the third line of defense, with the speed of an A-level beast king, a distance of fifty kilometers will be just a matter of a cup of tea. At that time, the Magic City will have no resistance and will open its arms nakedly. The wild beast will destroy the Magic City without any effort.
The wild beasts broke through the first line of defense. The first line of defense was full of ravines and the corpses of soldiers and wild beasts were everywhere. Armored vehicles, tanks, missile launchers and other special military vehicles were destroyed by wild beasts. Parts and shell casings were scattered on the ground, stained with blood that was not sure whether it was from soldiers or wild beasts.
More than four-fifths of the wild beasts were killed or injured, and the remaining ones were basically C-level or above. It was estimated that there were still three or four hundred of them. Although their skill level had dropped sharply, the remaining ones were all high-level wild beasts with strong strength. Thermal weapons were no longer effective, and they could only rely on super-powered people for hand-to-hand combat or even bloody combat!
The controllers of the Magic City who were above B level and five to six hundred top ancient warriors lined up in order, with their full aura on their bodies, confronting the surging herd of wild beasts from afar.
The ground shook violently, and there was an overwhelming momentum to destroy everything. Many super-powered people had never seen such a scene. Their faces turned pale and their legs shook involuntarily. They didn't know whether they were too scared or the weather was too cold.
Most of the super-powered people in the second line of defense are from aristocratic families. They usually live a life of luxury, have abundant resources for cultivation, and grow up in a greenhouse. They rarely fight with real weapons. They can usually bully citizens and rob resources, but when they really go to the battlefield, it’s good enough if they don’t wet their pants.
However, the independent cultivators who relied on fighting to earn resources for cultivation and lived on the edge of a knife did not show any fear in the face of the attack of the wild beasts. Some ancient warriors even showed excitement, actively rushed out of the defense line, waved their weapons, and jumped to fight against the group of wild beasts that were about to rush over.
A top ancient martial arts swordsman rushed out of the defense line, leaped high into the air, and slashed down with the long sword in his hand. A giant sword energy ten feet long, indestructible, slashed at a running B-level buffalo beast.
"Moo!"
The buffalo beast roared in pain, dug the ground with its front hooves, leaped several meters high, and charged at the swordsman with its sharp horns.
The swordsman twisted his body in the air to avoid the impact of the buffalo beast.
The buffalo beast fell to the ground, turned around and charged at the swordsman again. The swordsman also released an invisible sword energy, and in an instant the swordsman and the buffalo beast were entangled in a fight.
The independent cultivators rushed out of the defense line one after another and fought with the group of wild beasts. The remaining disciples of the aristocratic families and sects looked at each other in bewilderment. Many of them overcame their fear, gritted their teeth, stomped their feet, and rushed forward.
Eighteen years later, I am a hero again!
However, there are still many people who cower on the defense line and dare not fight with the beasts!
