Chapter 497 A tank who doesn't want to be a mage isn't a good healer.



Suddenly, Wang Zheng became alert.

However, considering that he was originally going to cause trouble for the Demon King, and with a spiritual energy limit of nearly 500,000 as a barrier, he relaxed.

Wang Zheng sighed helplessly, feeling that he was being too tense. Sometimes being too nervous is not a good thing.

He cursed himself inwardly for scaring himself.

If there really were a demon king, he could have just come out and wiped out this entire military force; there would have been no need for all this trouble.

"Boom... Boom... Boom..."

As the army group launched continuous attacks, and seeing the soldiers' elemental attacks being blocked time and time again, Xu Zhihong sighed helplessly and continued:

"Now these strange beasts are hiding behind these insects, and they don't rush forward randomly. They are blocking us from entering the city from all directions."

We've changed directions several times, and they just follow us. Even if we split up, they'll split up too.

However, the number of alien beasts far exceeds our numbers, so if we spread out too much, we will have no advantage at all.

As you know, the military's operational method is large-scale firepower suppression.

If it's just individual combat, the individual abilities of our rank-and-file soldiers are even weaker than most of the alien beasts, making it difficult to drive all the alien beasts out of the city, let alone rescue the people in the city.

The first two waves of reinforcements were forced in because they had no other choice but to charge in directly.

However, countless strange beasts lurked in the shadows of the city. They had no time to regroup after entering the city and were immediately scattered.

Not only did he fail to rescue the people in the city, he also got himself killed.

Now they're just waiting for us to storm the city and launch a coordinated attack from both inside and outside.

Moreover, the number of superhumans we sent to reinforce us was even less than the number of demon kings, so the top human forces were simply unable to help us.

Furthermore, we've never encountered such a situation before, and our response is inadequate. We're truly helpless against these foreign beasts.

When Wang Zheng heard that two reinforcements had already been trapped in Baoshan City, he was startled.

The combat capabilities of the Huaxia Army Group are evident to all; even the Tengchong military headquarters was able to withstand a sudden attack by a beast tide for so long.

However, Baoshan City has swallowed up three armies in succession, which seems to indicate that something fishy is going on.

Wang Zheng suddenly asked:

"Since the main objective is rescue, why not deploy psychic awakened individuals or use helicopters for direct rescue?"

Xu Zhihong sighed helplessly.

"There are already few spiritual awakeners, and even fewer who can fly. They are just a drop in the ocean when faced with the huge number of trapped people."

As for rescue aircraft, they fly at low altitudes, are noisy, and there are quite a few alien beasts capable of long-range attacks. For the already frenzied horde of alien beasts, they would easily become targets.

I realized I had been too naive in my thinking. As a professional, how could the other party not have considered my little tricks?

So Wang Zheng stopped worrying about it and asked directly:

"So now I need to get rid of these bugs?"

Xu Zhihong quickly explained:

"No, no, Lieutenant Wang, don't misunderstand."

In my battle report from Tengchong, I heard that Lieutenant Wang's external defense technique was extremely powerful, and he also seemed to have the ability to control poisonous insects.

What I mean is, all you need to do is help us lure these bugs away and separate them from the monsters.

Moreover, these scarabs have very low attack power. As long as you are careful not to be attacked by the beasts, I believe that with your strength, these scarabs should not be able to break through your defenses.

As you prepare to act, we will reinforce the flank fire to shield you from the horde of monsters behind the elemental scarabs.

Of course, it would be even better if Lieutenant Wang were capable of dealing with these insects.

Upon hearing this answer, Wang Zheng's brows furrowed.

'Am I being used as a main tank? To be the main tank of a 10,000-strong army?'

Wang Zheng didn't think Xu Zhihong was looking down on him. Instead, he figured that since Xu had already learned his fighting style from the Tengchong battlefield, he must know that Wang Zheng had fire abilities.

Perhaps he believed that the Nine Yin Candlelight was also a form of elemental energy that would be absorbed by these insects.

That's why I planned to use Battle Roar to lure all the bugs away, and then let the main force deal damage.

However, if these invasive elemental scarabs cannot be dealt with quickly, one will have to keep drawing their aggro, which will inevitably waste a lot of time.

Moreover, as Xu Zhihong just mentioned, these elemental scarabs have virtually no offensive capabilities.

This is ridiculous! Low attack power means slower damage reflection, which is not good news for Wang Zheng at all. It will only waste more time.

Looking at the fierce battle between attackers and defenders in the distance, and at the sacred beetles that were Rank 3 beasts, Wang Zheng couldn't help but lick his dry lips.

As the saying goes, a tank who doesn't want to be a mage isn't a good healer!

For a moment, he was also eager to try it out.

Wang Zheng also wanted to try it out and see if the [Nine Yin Candlelight], which had been touted as amazing by the data panel, could actually break through the elemental scarab's absolute defense.
