Although civilian righteous people kept coming from the city, they were persuaded to stay by the defending soldiers after leaving the city.
It's not time to let them play yet.
Looking at the battlefield in the distance, everything is under orderly command.
The only dirt road began to soften, rippling like water, and mud walls rose from the ground with a rumbling sound, forming low roadblocks.
The muddy ground, crisscrossed with gullies, blocked the advance of the endless, surging waves of strange beasts.
Then, under the influence of spiritual energy, countless spikes erupted from the walls and underground, tearing the struggling, rapidly approaching monsters trapped in the mud to shreds.
"boom--"
Amidst the earth-shaking tremors, countless rocks burst forth from the ground, then slammed down like giant hands, crushing the strange beasts that hadn't yet reached the city walls into a bloody pulp.
Most of these strange beasts were enormous. Although they had damaged some of the roadblocks, they were powerless to resist under the combined power of the team and were easily killed.
Countless strange beasts were pierced by the stone spikes and roared madly after being injured. As they struggled violently, their wounds were torn even more severely, and hot blood dripped down continuously, staining the earth a dark red.
But as time went on, more and more strange beasts crowded in, and the low earthen walls and spikes were constantly being destroyed.
In the surging tide of beasts, the severely wounded creatures were driven even more mad by the smell of blood.
They keep moving forward until they are exhausted and collapse, whereupon they are swallowed up by the endless tide of beasts behind them and finally trampled into a puddle of mud.
A gust of wind blew by, raising dust and bringing with it a strong stench of blood that made Wang Zheng, far above the clouds, feel nauseous.
This was Wang Zheng's first time witnessing a formal battle between an Awakened Army group, and he was deeply captivated by this artful style of warfare.
However, he knew that this advantage was only possible because the distance between the beast tide and the city was still far at present. Given the absolute difference in numbers, such an advantage could not be maintained for long.
Sure enough, a short while later, with a loud "bang!", a huge pillar of earth shot straight into the sky.
Countless strange beasts scattered and crumbled upon impact.
"Roar!!"
With a deafening roar, a colossal creature, about ten meters long, covered in white smoke and with horns on its head, burst forth from the ground, its heavy stomping feet causing the earth to tremble.
"boom--"
After another muffled thud, the entire earth seemed to collapse and sink in, and the huge monster finally stood firm, its thick tail swishing in the air.
The monster's body was gray, its skin was hard and covered with thick scales, and its back was covered with a layer of shiny black fur.
Its head is oval-shaped, its nose is flat and extends forward, its lips are slightly wide and high, and its teeth are sharp. Most remarkably, it has a curved horn on its forehead, which is dark gold in color.
"It's the Ironclad Rhinoceros, a defensive beast at the peak of the sixth rank!"
Someone in the crowd was shouting.
The armored rhinoceros raised its claws and slapped its massive head, exhaling thick hot mist from its nostrils as it surveyed its surroundings with disdain.
Then he raised his foot and stomped hard.
Suddenly, a violent surge of spiritual energy spread out, and the ground shook violently.
Countless strange beasts were blasted away around the Ironclad Rhinoceros, and chunks of rock rose from the ground, shooting out in all directions, forming a huge storm that destroyed the already nearly destroyed ground traps.
Immediately afterwards, three more rhinoceroses, shimmering with a silvery-white luster, appeared behind the sixth-rank armored rhinoceros. They spewed thick smoke and charged into the crowd with heavy steps.
"Fire Team 1, 3, and 5, prepare! Fireball, 30-degree angle, release!"
"Groups 2, 4, and 6, A2 to G2 area, Earthfire Spell, fire freely!"
"Solidify the stone massacre, build a tight runway, erect stone walls on both sides to compress their movement space, and place the spikes directly in the middle!"
"Repeat, fire freely! Fire freely! Give it your all, blast them! Remember to take potions to replenish your spiritual energy beforehand, give them a good beating!"
With the commander's roar, the battle area outside the city immediately descended into chaos.
The stone walls that kept rising and collapsing on both sides of the road did affect the impact of the beast tide, causing them to crowd onto the already narrow dirt road.
At the same time, scorching fireballs rained down like raindrops, then exploded into dazzling sparks among the beasts.
The softened ground constantly hindered the beasts' charge, and the spikes rising from the ground were shattered by the impact of the beast tide.
In the area separating the beast tide from the human population, crimson pillars of fire erupted from the ground, turning the entire road into a sea of flames.
In no time, the entire space was dyed crimson, and countless strange beasts were trapped in the sea of fire, howling in agony.
In a short time, the armored rhinoceros, which served as the spearhead of the beast tide, was kept out of the sea of fire.
Although the fire wouldn't be fatal to them due to their thick hides, their fear of flames, as pure melee beasts, still hindered their progress.
