The Ninth Abyss.
Countless monsters surged toward the human base.
Before they could even get close, the various heavy weapons deployed along the defensive line had already warmed up and launched the first round of attacks.
Dozens of streaks of fire descended from the sky, exploding violently amidst the beast tide, the shockwaves sending countless demons flying.
Severed limbs and broken pieces flew everywhere, and cries of agony filled the air.
The first wave of attacks alone dealt a heavy blow to the vanguard beast tide!
At such a terrifying density, there's no need to aim; you could inflict tens of thousands of casualties even with your eyes closed!
The demonic tide's offensive was somewhat alleviated, but only to this extent.
As long as the core of the abyss is not purified, no matter how many casualties the human race inflicts on the demonic tide, it will all be in vain.
After several volleys,
The heavy firepower devices on the defensive line spewed out countless white mists, and the demonic tide's offensive temporarily halted. Both sides were making intensive preparations for the next round of combat!
At the same time, everyone in the base received a new assignment, including the summer camp students.
As soon as Wang Zheng and the others were rescued by Liu Qingyan, an instructor immediately stepped forward to inform them of the current situation.
"Five minutes ago, the demonic tide went berserk. According to the data returned by the detector, this demonic tide is estimated to be in the millions."
"4 minutes and 20 seconds ago, the Ninth Abyss was cut off from the outside world."
"It is now impossible to return to Earth. All students should join the legion on the spot to assist in the defense."
"yes!"
Under the guidance of the instructors, Wang Zheng and others handed over the strategic materials they were carrying, as required.
In a state of first-level combat readiness, all strategic materials need to be managed in a coordinated manner in order to maximize resource utilization.
Of course, these supplies handed over were not given away for nothing.
After the special event ends, any unused supplies will be returned to their original owners.
The losses will be compensated at 1.5 times the average transaction price of Wanwuge over a period of time.
The quartermaster in charge of registering the supplies counted them.
"Wang Zheng, 30 kg of S-grade ore, 150 kg of A-grade ore, and twelve War King-level scrolls..."
"All items are valued at 8.6 million gold coins. Here is the voucher; keep it safe."
After the strategic materials were handed over, Wang Zheng immediately received his mission.
"Within half an hour, escort 3,000 kilograms of Grade B ore to the first line of defense, at grid coordinates (62.45)."
"quick!"
With his storage ring in hand, Wang Zheng raced towards the map.
He arrived at his destination in less than fifteen minutes.
These new recruits were initially assigned these kinds of errand-running tasks to help them adapt to the battlefield atmosphere more quickly and avoid being too nervous.
Wang Zheng never expected that he would run into an acquaintance—Senior Sister Zuo Lingxie.
Zuo Lingxie had just repaired a high-powered mechanical cannon, and the power of each shot was so great that even the War King had to temporarily avoid its edge.
The only downside is that this thing uses too much ore!
Zuo Lingxie jumped down from the high platform and took stock of the supplies that Wang Zheng had brought.
A faint worry lingered between her brows.
"Too little..."
The delivered ore couldn't even withstand three rounds of salvo.
Based on Zuo Lingxie's understanding of the stockpiled ore, he could handle a mere million-level demonic tide.
With a massive influx of demons, the battle lines are already stretched thin.
If the scale of the demonic tide increases to another level, the base's ore reserves will be completely insufficient!
Humanity has been fighting the Abyss for a century, and has accumulated countless experiences on the battlefield of the Abyss.
One of the most important ones:
Faced with a massive demonic tide, maintaining superior firepower to suppress it is the best way to reduce casualties!
Firepower suppression can come from War Kings and War Gods, or from various powerful scrolls.
Among them, the most effective and efficient are the various heavy firepower mechanical devices manufactured by mechanics!
With enough ore, even a single soldier can easily eliminate hundreds of War Kings!
Zuo Lingxie pondered in his heart,
"Given the current situation, we only have enough ore for less than two days."
"If the ore from outside can't be brought in... then everything is ruined."
After delivering the ore, Wang Zheng said goodbye and prepared to leave.
"Senior Sister Zuo, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
"Wait a moment!"
Zuo Lingxie asked,
"Where are Liu Xueqi and Ye Bairen? Are they with you?"
After the highest alert was issued, she tried to contact Liu Xueqi, but received no response.
Wang Zheng shook his head and looked at the demons stretching for hundreds of kilometers outside the defensive line.
Ye Bai, Liu Xueqi... Could they still be outside the base?
...
Leaving aside the base's defenses,
The demonic tide behind Ye Bai and Huo Tianyi seemed to have slowed its pursuit.
The communicator lit up, and Huo Tianyi's expression changed slightly.
"Kid, the demonic tide is heading towards the garrison base!"
"It was bound to happen sooner or later, it was expected."
Ye Bai was not surprised.
They were like eels; no matter how many or how few the demonic tides there were, they couldn't catch each other.
Even if surrounded, they can still escape using various methods.
As long as the top demon war gods and the Ninth Demon God and other powerful figures do not take action, the current demon tide is no match for the two of them!
The guide behind the demonic tide isn't stupid.
You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple!
While holding off Shura and Huo Tianyi, they freed up the demonic tide to launch a fierce attack on the human defenses.
No matter where they get their spoils, the demons always make a killing!
It's just a difference between a small win and a big win.
Huo Tianyi didn't have time to argue with Ye Bai, so he spoke again.
"The situation at the front is critical. I'll buy whatever ore you're carrying, at three times the price offered by Wanwu Pavilion!"
