Chapter 1038: The Final Siege
Waiting is a very anxiety-provoking thing, especially waiting for when you might die.
The security in the Holy City has reached perfection. In such a not particularly large city, there are nearly 30 billion masters of ground races gathered. The weakest among them is at the Divine Mind Stage. This force cannot be said to be weak.
But the enemy they faced was even more powerful.
An endless army of more than 100 billion species occupied every inch of space and every corner outside the city.
And the other side has more Hall of Fame members than half of the ground race.
Everyone was anxiously waiting for the opponent's attack to begin. This huge gap in strength made even the most perfect defense system useless. They could only hope that the opponent would suddenly retreat due to some unexpected events, such as the sudden death of Emperor Juetian.
But this extravagant hope was obviously unrealistic. After the Holy City was trapped for three months, the attack of the endless race finally began.
******** At night, outside the Holy City, at the sentry post.
The sentinel is on duty at the outpost, observing the movements of the Endless race.
No one is willing to serve as a sentinel, because once the Endless race attacks, the sentinel will surely die.
But someone still has to come. Some cannon fodder in the Divine Mind Stage take turns to guard here. Everyone hopes that they will not encounter enemy attacks when they are on duty.
Inside the sentry post, the sentry who was praying to God suddenly felt himself shaking.
"What's the matter? Sitting on the spring?"
The soldiers leaned out of the city wall and were immediately terrified.
In the distance, the endless army of races that covered the sky and the sun had already formed an irregular formation and were surging in from all directions, from the sky and from the ground!
"It's here! It's here! This day has finally come."
whoosh~!
A long, shining golden arrow came through the air and pierced the sentry's throat.
This sentry in the Divine Mind Stage was quite diligent in his duties. When he was shot, he used up the last of his strength and desperately pressed the alarm button in the sentry post.
The shrill alarm sounded throughout the sky above the holy city.
The entire holy city suddenly became like a pot of boiling water and began to flood.
The team, which had practiced countless times, began to take up their positions, picked up their weapons and prepared to fight. But everyone was in a heavy mood, and their faces looked as if their mother had died.
This is a war that is almost certain to be lost, and surrender is a luxury. Now everyone's only hope is to kill as many enemies as possible before they die, so that the enemy will be forced to retreat due to heavy casualties.
Although this hope is very slim, it is the only chance for everyone.
Seeing that they were exposed, the Endless Races no longer planned to hide it. Warriors raised their hands one by one and threw flash bombs that condensed light elements into the air, forming huge lights.
The Holy City, which was originally dark, suddenly became brighter than day.
There is no ground race outside the Holy City. Everyone is huddled in the city, waiting for the moment of the outbreak.
In the midst of anxiety, countless races are at the gates of the city.
********* Dizang stood in front of the team with high spirits, and beside him followed his most powerful helper Dong Xuehan.
After witnessing Dong Xuehan's super fighting power, Dizang's discrimination against these Hall of Fame members completely disappeared.
Others dare not say that Dong Xuehan's strength is definitely able to match Yuanman.
However, in this first battle, he did not intend to fight with Dong Xuehan. He wanted to slowly kill all the trash of these ground races and let these people fall into hell completely.
"All units, get ready. We will launch the attack in one minute. Let these ground races hiding in the city see what we, the Endless Race, are capable of. Let those guys watching in the dimensional universe see how we, the Endless Race, will kill them all and rule the earth again!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The armies of the Endless race responded positively, and their voices resounded through the sky.
Checking the time, Jizo waved his hand and said, "Attack!"
Amidst waves of roaring sounds, the attack of the endless race began.
Unlike ordinary human armies that organize their attacks step by step, warriors' attack methods are simpler and more brutal.
Everyone rose into the air and swooped down towards the Holy City from all directions like raindrops.
The Holy City has a city defense system, which is a huge energy shield. This shield protects the Holy City from external attacks, but the shield needs to be injected with divine stones to drive it. If the divine stones are not supplied and the shield is broken, the enemy can enter the city directly.
Therefore, in the first wave of attack, the Endless race must break the opponent's energy shield.
The shield is also magical. People inside can launch attacks on the outside, but people outside cannot. This is also an advantage for the defending side.
The ground race launched a fierce counterattack at this moment.
Countless flying swords, treasures, mental powers and other attacks were bombarding out madly. The entire Holy City was like a giant sea urchin at this moment.
This wave of attacks indeed caused great damage to the Endless race. The attackers rolled down like dumplings, and the corpses piled up like a mountain in an instant.
Every second, more than ten thousand people die outside the Holy City.
But this did not scare away the people of the Endless race. The battle had already reached this point, and this amount of casualties was something everyone could expect.
Every warrior who rushes to the energy shield will launch his most fierce attack and deal a severe blow to the shield.
Every time it is attacked, the light of the shield will dim a little. Although the change is very slow, it is indeed changing.
Tens of millions of enemies fell in an instant, and half of the energy of the energy shield was consumed.
"Quick, quick, quick! Add the divine stone! Make sure the shield is not broken."
"Hurry up, hurry up, those who have exhausted their star power in front, hurry down, and the reserve team is ready to go. Kill as many enemies as possible, don't injure them, but kill them!"
"Come on, some people! This starry sky octopus monster is too powerful and has no obvious weaknesses. It can do too much damage to the shield. Let's kill it quickly!"
There were deafening shouts of killing in every place, and the magic stones in stock were once again added to the operating formation of the shield.
As long as the shield is intact, the holy city will be safe.
But the shield consumes too much of the divine stone.
Under the enemy's frenzied attack, hundreds of thousands of divine stones are consumed every second. If this continues, no matter how many divine stones there are, they will not be enough.
After leaving behind billions of corpses, the enemy did not retreat, but instead launched a second wave of attacks.
This time, enemies in the Divine Mind Stage were rare, and the attacking enemies were mainly in the Divine Realm Stage, with even quite a few Divine Stones and Demigods behind them.
Even if the god stones and demigods of the endless races died in battle, someone would immediately collect their god stones, and the ground races would not be able to obtain replenishment in the war.
The second wave of attacks was more intense than the first. The shield was soon in danger, and then the stock of divine stones was consumed wave by wave.
After a battle and leaving behind more than a billion corpses, the second wave of attack by the Endless race was repelled.
But this did not affect anything at all. The people of the Endless race were still everywhere. The third wave of attacks came again, leaving no breathing time for the ground races.
Warriors from the four major tribes, namely the demons, monsters, ghosts and monsters, took to the battlefield one after another, with each wave of their offensive becoming more and more powerful.
Batches of ground race warriors soon ran out of star power, or even became weak, and were carried down to be replaced by the next wave.
After more than a dozen repeated waves of attacks, the Endless Race has lost more than 10 billion people, and the Holy City’s stock of divine stones has finally been exhausted.
Jiuxuan immediately issued an order that everyone must hand over their own sacred stones, otherwise the Holy City would be destroyed and everyone would die together.
Although some people were reluctant to hand over their wealth, at this critical moment of life and death, no one dared to keep it to themselves, and they all handed over their collections of the magic stones.
With the replenishment of a new batch of divine stones, the protective shield of the holy city was stabilized again.
Unfortunately, this was only temporary. After being destroyed more than a dozen times, the energy of the protective shield was finally almost exhausted again.
At this time, no one had the magic stone in their hands.
********* "How long can the God Stone last now?"
"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, the divine stone can only hold out for less than two waves of attacks."
Jiuxuan closed his eyes slightly, there was nothing he could do.
Although the shield was used to kill 30 billion enemies, the number of enemies was still as high as 800 billion or 900 billion, and no damage was done to the foundation.
Do we have to ask warriors to hand over the divine stones in their divine realm?
That's impossible. No warrior would agree to such a thing. It would be tantamount to suicide.
At this point, the only way out is street fighting, which is also their last resistance.
Jiu Xuan took a deep breath and said to the Hall of Fame warriors who were ready to take the stage: "Everyone, it's the final moment. Behind us is our national homeland. As I said before, if you want to attack the ground, you have to step on my body. Are you ready?"
Everyone nodded in agreement, believing that if they failed in this battle, they would die.
"If there are any warriors wandering outside, contact the Dimensional Universe immediately and have them fight to the death from the rear. It's the last moment."
Jiuxuan had no other choice but to do his best at this time. Although he couldn't rely on those distractions, it would be good to kill one more enemy.
People started contacting their friends to see if anyone was still alive.
Beside Jiuxuan, Bai Yunyan checked his friend list.
As she watched, Bai Yunyan was suddenly stunned.
"This, this, this, this is impossible!"
Bai Yunyan rubbed her eyes and when she looked carefully, she found that Lin Zhen's dimensional universe in the dimensional universe had become darker.
But he just clearly saw that Lin Zhen's dimensional universe was in the login state. Could it be that he was seeing things?
"Hallucination! I must be hallucinating."
Seeing no movement and the war ahead getting intense, Bai Yunyan could only close the dimensional universe.
He didn't dare tell anyone about this, otherwise others would laugh at him.
Holding weapons, Bai Yunyan and other Hall of Fame members also began to climb to the top of the city wall, preparing for the final decisive battle.
And behind the Endless Race, those ground race warriors who were still wandering outside also appeared from various places and launched a final charge towards the rear army of the Endless Race.
They will use their limited strength to support the front line. Life and death, success or failure, all depend on this one move! Today is the third update, and I will add another update for the Grandmaster of this book (Jelly Box).
