Chapter 308: Ice City Beast Tide
Wanren Di This mutant beast has been rampant in Northeast China and Siberia of Tsarist Russia for many years. It is a giant tiger with a body length of more than ten meters and a height of more than four meters.
When Lin Zhen was reborn, this tiger was already quasi-SS level.
Generally speaking, for land mutant beasts on Earth, promotion to the quasi-SS level is the pinnacle. Once an SS-level mutant beast appears, a monster siege is almost certain to occur.
Not to mention how strong the combat power of an SS-level mutant beast itself is, what is more important is that it can command hundreds of quasi-SS-level mutant beasts, and those quasi-SS-level can command countless S-level, and S-level can command A-level. In this way, almost all the mutant beasts within a thousand miles are attacked, forming an endless tide of beasts, pressing towards the Ice City.
By the time Ice City realized something was wrong, the entire city had been surrounded by mutant beasts.
Standing on the wall of the Ice City and looking out, as far as the eye can see, it is covered by mutant beasts that block out the sky and the sun.
On the ground, violent mutant tigers, agile mutant leopards, huge mutant human bears, thick-skinned wild boars, bobcats, elks, etc., filled the army of mutant beasts.
Every impact of the several-meter-tall bison seemed to make the city walls vibrate.
Giant pangolins have even begun trying to dig tunnels underground into the ice city.
In the sky, countless sparrows, swallows, pigeons, crows, magpies, goshawks, etc. These birds, which were small in the past, were like groups of fighter jets, attacking the walls of the ice city one after another.
The discussion between Lin Zhen and the Divine Cult stopped immediately, and the attention of the whole world was focused on this large-scale mutant beast siege.
The Ice City army also quickly responded to the emergency, and countless modern war weapons began to exert their power.
Machine guns, missiles, mines, rocket launchers, and even laser weapons were used, and the Ice City defense force, numbering up to five million, began to counterattack the beast tide.
The first wave of mutant beasts were cannon fodder. They were basically small mutant beasts such as mutant chickens, mutant rabbits, and mutant mice. These things were not very strong and were smashed to pieces by various modern weapons.
On the first day, the Ice City defense army achieved brilliant results, killing more than a billion mutant beasts! The casualties of the city defense army were not large, which made the people of Ice City breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps the mutant beasts attacking the city were not that scary.
But from the next day, the situation suddenly changed.
The mutant birds that had been hovering in the sky suddenly attacked, catching the city defense forces off guard. Several fighter planes that took off were shot down by the mutant birds. Moreover, the mutant beasts also learned to concentrate their strength and make a breakthrough at one point, resulting in the southern wall of the Ice City being occupied by the mutant beasts for a time.
At this time, the value of a warrior is reflected.
Warriors from various major martial arts schools including Liefeng, Changfeng, Tulong, Bikong, Guangying, etc. went to the battlefield.
Together with the soldiers, these warriors launched a resolute counterattack against the monsters that climbed onto the city walls.
The division of labor among warriors is very clear. Masters at the Quasi-Star Realm level will take the initiative to find those high-level mutant beasts, such as S-level ones.
The masters at the God of War level are responsible for dealing with those at the A level.
If a quasi-SS-level mutant beast appears, many experts will rush forward and attack in groups, determined not to let the high-level mutant beast enter the Ice City.
The repeated and bloody tug-of-war lasted for three hours. With the support of various weapons and the concerted efforts of the warriors, this wave of monster siege was blocked.
However, after this round of fighting, Ice City also suffered heavy losses.
As the number one member of the World War God Alliance, China immediately mobilized troops to support Ice City. At the same time, it notified countries around the world and dispatched powerful war gods from all over the world to support Ice City.
However, the effect of the support was not satisfactory. In addition to the fact that the scale of the beast tide was too large, there was another major reason, which was that there were many believers of the religion among the people in power in many countries outside of China.
You know, this time the support is going to be provided to Lin Zhen’s hometown, Ice City Base City. Now the Holy See and Lin Zhen are at loggerheads, and the Holy See even kidnapped Lin Zhen’s parents.
As a member of the Divine Religion, they naturally had to consider the interests of the Divine Religion. So when the God of War Alliance dispatched the God of War to China, many countries made some adjustments.
First, they used various excuses to delay the departure date of the gods of war.
Then when they could no longer shirk their responsibilities, one war god after another claimed to be injured or sick and continued to delay.
When we finally sent out some war gods, they were basically primary and intermediate war gods.
How much of a role can a primary war god play on the battlefield? Just like when Bai Feng, an intermediate war god who did not compress his Dantian Qi, was chased by the A-level mutant beast Giant Palm Man-Bear and fled in a panic, on a battlefield full of mutant beasts like this, the role that a primary war god can play is really limited.
The only truly reliable support was from China, with people from various base cities heading to Ice City to resist the monster siege.
In the northwest, Feng Ni, Li Changying and others led thousands of warriors from the Northwest Army to arrive.
In Shanghai, Tang Wenbo, Jiang Huai and others also came with thousands of people.
And those who were in the God General Training Camp have now become war gods, such as Zhao Xiaoman and others, who have come from all over the country and from various ancient god sites to Ice City.
Many of these people came for Lin Zhen's sake. The incident with Lin Zhen's parents happened suddenly and they did not have time to rescue them. However, this time Lin Zhen's hometown was in trouble and Lin Zhen himself was trapped in the City of Ancient Gods. They could not bear to see Lin Zhen's hometown fall.
In the fierce offensive and defensive battles, hundreds of millions of mutant beasts died every day under the tall and majestic walls of the Ice City, and many warriors also had their robes stained with blood and died on the battlefield.
According to statistics, more than five million people died in the battle in Ice City in the first five days!
Almost every day, nearly a million lives are lost in monster attacks.
However, the Chinese people were still very united at this time. In addition, over the years, the city defense facilities of Ice City had become very complete. Although the mutant beasts' siege was fierce, it was not enough to completely destroy Ice City.
However, there was no sign of a decrease in the number of mutant beasts. The siege had been going on for several days, and more mutant beasts were coming to reinforce. There were so many mutant beasts under the city walls that they could not be counted or killed.
According to people's past experience, this battle may last for several months, and it will be a competition of resources, manpower, and endurance.
Unless there is a group of super masters who can fight their way out of the beast tide, find the location of the Ten Thousand Enemies, and kill them, it will be possible to end the mutant beasts' siege in a short period of time.
Satellite data also gave the location of Wan Ren Di, which was located hundreds of miles away in the depths of the beast tide. It was almost an impossible task to reach there under such circumstances and kill an SS-level mutant beast protected by many high-level mutant beasts, so people were prepared for a protracted war.
But on the seventh day, the situation suddenly changed again.
In addition to the four city gates, the Ice City also has two water gates in the north and south. The Songhua River runs through the city here. The water gates are blocked by huge iron gates, and even slightly larger mutant beasts in the water cannot pass through.
But this time it was different. A kind of strange fish with extremely sharp teeth appeared. These strange fish bit through the iron gate blocking the river, allowing countless water monsters to swarm into the city wall.
Countless strange fish came ashore, using their fins as feet, as well as giant crabs, winding water snakes, and even crocodiles as big as yachts and a huge number of mutant shrimps.
The appearance of these water monsters almost caused the Ice City to fall, and some people on both sides of the river were affected and were devoured by the monsters.
Fortunately, the river bank in Ice City is different from other places. There are two inner city walls here. They were built by Lin Zhen at a private expense of 600 billion yuan, and they are basically completed now.
The gates of these two city walls were once lost. Later, warriors from all over the country fought frantically and paid a huge price. They drove the first batch of water monsters back into the water and finally closed the two newly built gates.
The water monster could not enter the city and could only swim on both sides of the river. It could not climb up the city wall, so the danger was immediately reduced a lot.
Then it was time for modern war weapons to come into play. Countless weapons purchased by Lin Zhen were placed on the city walls and began to shoot at the mutated water monsters in the river.
The crazy bombardment lasted for almost three days and three nights. The entire Songhua River was dyed red. Countless corpses of mutated water monsters were piled up into small hills and then washed downstream with the river water.
Three days later, the river waterway was basically cleared, and the number of water monsters coming from upstream became fewer and fewer.
It was not until this time that Ice City entered a relatively safe period. At least there was no immediate danger of the city being breached.
However, the support from countries around the world is still not strong enough. War gods arrive one after another, but everyone can see that there is no full support, so Ice City can only maintain a delicate balance with the mutant beasts for the time being.
The warriors wanted to rush out and kill tens of thousands of enemies but it was impossible to do so, and the mutant beasts did not have the ability to break through the ice city in a short time.
Perhaps both sides were tired of fighting. Half a month after the siege, the mutant beasts stopped attacking. They began to devour the corpses of their own kind, gradually strengthening themselves, while other mutant beasts continued to arrive.
The people of Ice City also got this rare opportunity to catch their breath and began to strengthen the city's defenses. They also transported ammunition to Ice City by airdropping via flying saucer fighters from other base cities.
Now that the sky is full of mutant birds, it is not easy for other fighter jets to enter the Ice City. This has also become an excuse for other countries to be slow in sending troops.
In short, the situation has calmed down temporarily, but everyone in Ice City knows that the mutant beasts are still accumulating strength, and perhaps the next attack will be even more violent and ferocious, and it will not be easy for Ice City to withstand it.
Until this time, An Ning, the eldest daughter of the An Group, who had been on the front line of fighting against mutant beasts, spoke.
"Do you know why Ice City was able to survive? Why didn't hundreds of millions of people in Ice City become food for mutant beasts? If Lin Zhen hadn't taken out 600 billion yuan to build two city walls along the river for Ice City, none of us would be in this world by now!"
"To those who were previously boasting, insulting Lin Zhen, and praising the God Church online, I now want to ask you, where is the God you believe in? Why doesn't He come to save you, the devout believers?"
“You look down on Lin Zhen, so don’t live and hide in the city wall built by Lin Zhen! Get out of Ice City if you have the guts! Get out of these two city walls that saved your lives, and seek the protection of your true god!”
I attended a friend's birthday party today and got a little drunk, so I need to go to bed early. These are just two chapters.
