"Everyone, please be careful. The monster standing next to us is summoned by Anno, the president of the Adventurer's Guild. Don't hurt our own people by mistake!"

The captain's voice echoed across the nearby walls.

The soldiers, whose attention had been drawn by the appearance of the Lizardman Leader and other summoned creatures, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If this had not been told in advance, the soldiers would have thought that a monster had already climbed up the city wall.

Crackling!

The lizardman leader's thunder ball fell to the ground and exploded instantly.

Arcs of electricity spread like spider webs, knocking down a dozen monsters within a five-meter radius, and then they were killed by the soldiers with bows and arrows or magic.

The soldiers in the city basically all start at level two.

However, among the dozens of soldiers defending the city near Annuo, the strongest one is only level three.

Most of the current soldiers have fought against the monster troops these days.

Skilled in handling emergencies.

However, this is a battlefield after all, and the monsters will do more than just get beaten.

The counterattack from the long-range monsters behind also caused some casualties to the soldiers.

If you are slightly injured, continue fighting; if you are seriously injured, call a priest.

There were also some unlucky ones who were hit in the vital parts of the head and died on the spot!

Annuo did not gain any experience by hunting low-level monsters, so he was always searching for any fourth-level monsters hiding there.

whoosh~!

While he was searching, a bunch of thick vines suddenly flew in front of An Nuo, wrapped around the wall, and then stretched straight!

The height of the city wall is almost twenty meters!

Following the starting point of the vines, Annuo discovered a group of demonized tree people.

These tree people walked to a position less than fifty meters from the city wall and then activated the [Rooting] skill.

Then use tough vines to connect to the city wall to form 'ladders' for small monsters to climb!

Next to the demonized tree man, there was a group of demons with hard keratin on their surfaces standing guard to block the attacks from the city wall.

"Team Vanyi, cut down the vines!"

"yes!"

Seeing monsters like ratmen and goblins climbing up the vines quickly, the surrounding soldiers immediately began to chop the vines with their weapons.

A soldier was swinging his sword, preparing to cut off the still-growing vines, when he was suddenly hit by a mass of white matter rising from below.

The soldier entangled in the spider web had no time to call for help before he felt a huge force pulling him down!

Fortunately, the soldier was right next to Anno.

Annuo pulled out the magic sword he had just bought, cut the spider silk to save the terrified soldier, and then cut off a few vines around him.

The goblins and other monsters that were halfway up the mountain screamed in fear and fell from a height of more than ten meters.

Those who were lucky only broke their legs and survived.

Those with less luck had their heads hit on the rocks and their brains splattered all over the ground!

But soon after, more spider silk sprayed up and stuck to the outer wall of the city.

There were several monsters hanging on the spider monster below, climbing up along the spider silk.

Because they were at a distance below the outer wall, it was difficult for the soldiers to deal with the spider silk.

Soon a spider came up with a group of monsters.

The level of these spiders is around level 15, and Annuo's summons easily took care of a batch of them that crawled up.

By the way, the monsters that hitched a ride were also dealt with. They were all small creatures of the first and second levels, and there was only one third level one.

Apart from providing Anno with a soul, no experience was gained.

However, these monsters can also be exchanged for merit points.

Other parts of the city wall also encountered a joint attack by demonized tree people and spider-like monsters, especially the city wall near the city gate.

In order to stop the monsters from approaching the city wall, the gathered mages and hunters never stopped their long-range attacks.

The fire in front of the city gate illuminated the piled up corpses, with various broken arms and limbs scattered around.

Five hundred meters to the left of An Nuo's location is the city gate area.

The monsters attacking the Annuo defense zone were not very strong, and the pace of the attack slowed down after the demonized tree men and their guards were killed one by one by the mages with magic.

In addition, Annuo brought a group of fourth-level summons to guard nearby, and no monsters could climb up the city wall after that.

At this moment, from a hundred meters away on the right, there were panicked cries for support.

Anno immediately asked Shadow to ride Sasir over there - he didn't let the summoned creature go alone because he was worried that the summoned creature would be accidentally injured or cause panic in the melee.

The knight suit purchased from Lance was now worn by Shadow.

When Shadow rushed over, he found a thin demon less than 1.5 meters tall, holding a dagger and reaping the lives of soldiers.

This is a level 23 poacher that looks similar to a ratman, but without a tail and big teeth.

Poachers are agile and good at surprise killing.

Ordinary soldiers were no match at all.

The fourth-level soldier in charge of this area has been killed by poachers and a fourth-level electric lizard!

However, the electric lizard was replaced by the soldier's dying counterattack - its head was pierced by a long sword and nailed to the city wall.

Shadow rushed over riding Sasir, but the poacher dodged him.

"Leave this to me, and you guard the city wall!"

The heavy armor suit worn by Shadow did not affect his speed.

This is due to the fact that Anno had previously learned some passive skills that improve a warrior's physical strength and endurance.

Boom!

The shadow jumped off Sasir's back with a dull sound.

"Sasier, quick victory!"

Drawing the long sword from his waist, Shadow used [Continuous Stab] to instantly close in on the poacher.

At the same time, Sasir also blocked the poachers' retreat.

“Speed ​​is also my strong point!”

With one claw, Sasir broke several ribs of the poacher who was trying to break out, accelerated again, caught up with the poacher's flying body, and opened his mouth wide to bite him.

Seeing this, the poacher quickly threw the dagger in his hand at Sasir, forcing the latter to dodge.

The poacher then dodged Shadow's attack and prepared to jump off the wall to escape.

Without the electric lizards in front to attract fire, the poacher is not strong in a head-on battle with the same level.

However, when the poacher went around the shadow on the right side, a repulsive force suddenly spread out in all directions with the shadow as the center.

[Resist the halo]!

The poacher rushed forward, lost his balance and fell out, sliding along the ground of the city wall for more than ten meters, with his skin peeled off.

Before it could get up, a long sword was thrown by the shadow and stabbed into the poacher's heart.

“Ugh~!”

The poacher held the sword in both hands, his wide eyes gradually losing their luster.

Phew!

After pulling out the sword, Shadow found that there was not a drop of blood on the sword, and couldn't help but praise: "Good sword!"

Afterwards, Shadow took Sasir and stayed here temporarily.

[Obtain Poacher Soul (Orange) x 1, Experience +2000]

On the other side, Anno saw an orange soul flying towards him from the right, and the voice calling for support disappeared, so he knew that Shadow had resolved the matter over there.

Now the experience required for Anno to upgrade from level 22 to level 23 is as high as 250,000!

If you want to level up, you need to hunt hundreds of fourth-level monsters.

"Go see if there's any help needed elsewhere!"

The monsters in this area have been almost all killed by the Lizardman leader.

It will be no problem for the remaining sixty or so soldiers to guard here.

An Nuo wanted to go to where the fighting was most intense to get some kills.

The cluster of orange souls over there are very dazzling in the dark night - to absorb souls, you need to be within a range of 300 meters.

After putting away the summoned creatures and bringing Liz and Ella to within 300 meters of the city gate, one by one, the fourth-level orange souls flew towards Anno like birds returning home.
