Wang Xiaoyi led his group to the top of the city wall, where they saw a dense horde of beasts surging towards Le'an City.
The city walls were brightly lit, and all 600 soldiers of Le'an City were in position.
One hundred armored guards, each wielding a gold-quality dual-wielding shield, stood at the crenellations to block the charging monsters.
Two hundred cavalrymen, armed with blue-quality [war spears], were tasked with eliminating any monsters missed by the armored guards.
The 300 archers are the main force in the city defense battle, armed with purple-quality [Five Stone Bows] and ready for battle.
Perhaps yesterday was an adjustment period after the version update, as the beast tide was sparse and there were no organized attacks.
Today's beast tide, the first wave of which consists of monsters never seen before.
The slender monster disappeared into the darkness, moving with incredible speed!
Yesterday's hopeless and unsuccessful rain of arrows failed to kill any monsters outside the city today.
The monster stretched out its sharp claws and slid across the city wall as if it were flat ground, climbing up the 10-meter-high wall in an instant.
The monster charged up the ramparts and delivered three claw strikes to the armored guard.
The claws struck the armored guard's massive shield, but the guard remained completely unmoved, and the damage was negligible.

[-1]
[-1] If the defense is not broken, it will deal 1 point of damage by default.

Under the torchlight, Wang Xiaoyi seized the opportunity and killed him instantly with a single [Silver Spear Thrust].
[Ding! Soul Imprint +1!]
Above the torch was a black raccoon cat, about the same length as a domestic cat, but with sharp claws and teeth, and a slender body.
Countless Night Raccoons surged onto the city walls, and chaos ensued, instantly negating the archers' advantage.
[Silver Spear Thrust] + [Lightning Chain], the city wall was instantly enveloped in lightning.

Wang Xiaoyi killed a berserk monster during the day and obtained a total of 3 accessories, 2 of which increased critical hit rate.
The [Explosive Ape Ring] and [Mad Python Necklace] that Wang Xiaoyi obtained directly caused his critical hit rate to overflow.
Now Wang Xiaoyi's shots are all critical hits, and the critical hit damage is as high as 275%, which is more than double the damage he used to have!
Current number of Soul Imprints: 100
Before long, the Soul Imprint required for the active skill [Silver Spear Thrust] of the [Silver Lightning Overlord Spear] reached its limit.
The entire city wall became Wang Xiaoyi's stage, with lightning chains weaving among the [Dark Night Raccoons], each chain capable of killing 10 monsters.
A massive number of Dark Night Raccoons were killed, dropping a huge amount of experience, copper coins, and materials.
Congratulations on reaching Lv29!
[HP +1000, Attack +100, Defense +50]
A golden light flashed, and Wang Xiaoyi once again achieved a magnificent level up, taking another step closer to the level 30 mark. However, it would take a full 14 million experience points to go from level 29 to level 30.
The subsequent beast tides were still fierce, but no more monsters appeared that could scale the city walls in large numbers.
Occasionally, a magical beast would climb the city wall, but it would be surrounded by the armored guards and die under the iron hooves of the cavalry.
With the archers' safety guaranteed, organized groups of archers dealt tons of damage.
Especially under Li Guang's leadership, their attack power doubled and with the addition of a triple arrow formation, they were truly invincible!

Yesterday, Wang Xiaoyi obtained the gold-quality [Lingyan Pavilion]. I wonder what he will get today.
A flash of red light appeared, and a red-quality [General Recruitment Order] appeared in Wang Xiaoyi's hand.
"Show yourself, little one!"
Wang Xiaoyi shouted as he used the recruitment order, displaying a strong sense of chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur)!
"Zhou Chu greets my lord!"
The person Wang Xiaoyi recruited this time was a prime example of "a prodigal son who returns is more precious than gold," namely Zhou Chu (Zhou Ziyin) from the Western Jin Dynasty.
"Zhou Chu, please rise. Look at the defenses of my Le'an City now!"
Wang Xiaoyi had just displayed great prowess, and now that he had gained a military general, he was eager to show off in front of Zhou Chu.
"Reporting to my lord, the city's defenses can only be described in four words," Zhou Chu replied solemnly.
"I know, you mean it's impregnable, right?"
"This new military officer is quite savvy; he knows I like listening to this. He seems like a promising talent," Wang Xiaoyi thought to himself with satisfaction.
"My lord is overthinking things. These four words are—"
"Utterly useless!"
Wang Xiaoyi: (╯‵□′)╯︵┴─┴
Since Wang Xiaoyi was released, every NPC has treated him with utmost respect and courtesy.
Wang Xiaoyi didn't expect that Zhou Chu would not only be impolite, but also take the mockery to the maximum right from the start!
Overwhelmed by the huge psychological gap, Wang Xiaoyi was consumed by rage and rolled up his sleeves to rush towards Zhou Chu.
"My lord, this must not be done!"
"My lord, please calm down, please calm down!"
Li Guang and Zhuge Liang quickly stepped forward, each grabbing one of Wang Xiaoyi's arms, temporarily bringing him under control.
Wang Xiaoyi: (╬￣皿￣)凸
"My lord, Zhou Chu must have some unique insights to have made these remarks!"
"Why don't you let him finish speaking, my lord?"
