Murong Liuyu returned to the command center.
When the Lu family's Grand Patriarch saw that she did not bring back Lu Tian, his face turned gloomy. Chu Tian and others also looked disappointed, but it was also expected.
In the team, Yan Qingcheng was not disappointed when she saw that Lu Tian did not follow. Instead, she felt secretly happy.
He had no grudge against Murong Liuyu, but because of her unusual relationship with Lu Tian, he naturally felt a sense of hostility in his heart. Of course, he was not against an enemy, but a rival in love!
Yan Qingcheng dares to love and hate, and never avoids feelings. After experiencing so much, she started out purely grateful to Lu Tian, but now she has already fallen deeply in love with him.
She never concealed her affection for Lu Tian, so no matter what Lu Tian wanted to do, she would do it without hesitation without asking the reason.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Murong Liuyu added:
"Lu Tian is in seclusion, training, preparing for a breakthrough. Once he comes out, he will contact me. At that time, with Lu Tian's realm, it will definitely be advantageous to the battle situation!
Although she said it with certainty, she did not have much confidence in her heart. In her mind, Lu Tian's image has always been like a free and easy cloud and wild crane.
His origins are mysterious and his cultivation is profound, but he has no desire to fight for power. Instead, he is rebellious and often does shocking things.
It's like opening a restaurant when there is a shortage of food and clothing. It's not something that ordinary people can do.
The beast tide is attacking the city, and the city's survival is at stake. Everyone feels that if one party fails, the other party will be in danger. However, Lu Tian may be indifferent and stand aside.
The Lu family's great ancestor looked at Murong Liuyu deeply and said nothing more. There was no time now. If he had enough time, he really wanted to meet Lu Tian.
Everyone put Lu Tian's affairs aside and began to work intensively on the three lines of defense.
The first line of defense does not require preparation, but the second and third lines of defense, especially the second line of defense, need to concentrate all the top ancient martial artists and super-powered people above level B in the Magic City. They are the backbone of the three lines of defense, and their main purpose is to eliminate the wild beasts that break through the first line of fire suppression.
Just at this moment, the sound of a horn broke through the darkness, and everyone's nerves suddenly became tense.
"The beast tide is coming!"
Artillery fire split the sky and illuminated the earth. A few kilometers away, the mountains and plains were filled with wild beasts and wild beastmen. They were so aggressive that the earth trembled violently as they ran, as if a magnitude 7 or 8 earthquake had occurred.
The soldiers overcame their fear and loaded the shells expressionlessly. The artillery fire roared, and the shells landed in the beast tide. There was a huge explosion, and countless flesh and blood flew everywhere. Several or even dozens of low-level beasts were reduced to ashes.
Of course, these shells can only deal with low-level beasts, but some shells were instantly knocked back by some unknown flying beasts after being fired, and instantly destroyed the cannons when they returned to the original path. The artillerymen were covered in blood and flesh in the explosion of the shells, and they were reduced to ashes before they even had time to react.
Such scenes are happening every moment, but the soldiers continue to advance, having long since put life and death aside. They are soldiers and have been prepared to sacrifice since they joined the army.
Since the end of the world, they have been stationed at the forefront of the defense line. In the past six months, they have experienced hundreds of beast tides of varying sizes. Those who survived have already prepared themselves mentally to die on the battlefield.
They are the people's army, and even in the end times they have not forgotten their mission.
There is no such thing as a prosperous and glorious age, it’s just that someone is carrying a heavy burden and moving forward!
The major forces in the Magic City fight for power and divide up resources, making the end of the world ugly, but the people's army risking their lives to protect the people is showing the beauty of the end of the world.
whoosh!
Amidst the flying shells, brighter fireworks flashed in the sky above them. These were large missiles and hydrogen bombs, targeting the powerful C-level and above beasts in the beast tide. Ordinary thermal weapons could no longer cause harm to these beasts. Only large and lethal missiles could cause fatal damage to them.
Countless missiles bombarded the high-level beasts among the running beasts. A C-level king of the sky, the goshawk, with a wingspan of more than ten meters, fell from the sky, blocking out the sun and landing on the ground. Dust flew up and a deep pit appeared. The running beasts trampled it into mud in an instant.
A B-level beast, the Tongtian Ape, who was as tall as seven or eight stories, roared, slapped his chest, and leaped forward. He was dozens of meters away in the rise and fall. The Tongtian Ape leaped up and left the ground dozens of meters. A large missile appeared in the sky above. The Tongtian Ape sensed the danger, roared, raised his right huge palm and blew towards the missile.
Boom!
A deafening explosion sounded, Tongtian Ape roared continuously, and blood rained down from the sky. Tongtian Ape fell rapidly in the explosion and hit the ground heavily. At this time, Tongtian Ape was weak, his right arm had been blown off, and blood was flowing!
The pain stimulated the ferocity of Tongtian Ape. Its blood-red eyes stared at the defense line ahead. Regardless of the serious injuries on its body, it continued to leap forward with a roar, destroying the launch pad with unstoppable force. It blew the launch pad into pieces as if to vent its anger. The soldiers on the launch pad were torn to pieces by it, thrown to the ground, and trampled into the ground.
A flash of knife light slashed towards Tongtian Ape's neck. Tongtian Ape sensed the danger and turned around. He wanted to raise his right hand, but found that his right arm was gone. But it was too late. The knife light pierced through Tongtian Ape's neck, separating his head and body, and Tongtian Ape's body fell down with a bang.
The owner of the sword light appeared beside Tongtian Ape, a middle-aged ancient warrior. He confirmed that Tongtian Ape was dead and his body disappeared on the spot.
The first line of defense was suppressed by firepower, but it was already stretched to its limits in the face of tens of thousands of wild beasts, and many places had been breached. Even if the super-powered people appeared in time and killed the high-level wild beasts, given the current situation, the first line of defense should be breached soon.
However, the fire suppression of the first line of defense played a key role. The number of beasts was sharply reduced under the artillery fire and large-scale lethal weapons. The low-level beasts were basically wiped out, and even the high-level beasts suffered a certain number of casualties.
The battle continued, artillery fire and missiles flew, explosions roared, and echoed for hundreds of miles. The Demon City behind them seemed deathly silent in the darkness, but the people inside were worried.
Many ordinary people are unaware of the situation. The only thing that makes them feel that something is wrong is the occasional military off-road vehicles driving on the streets and the continuous sound of explosions.
Some people knew that it must be a beast tide, but in the past, when beast tides came, the noise was not so loud, and the night was already illuminated by artillery fire, so these people were also nervous.
Everyone in Taoyuan Hotel fell into silence amidst the flying gunfire and explosions. Baoxiong and others were practicing against all odds.
