At the main entrance of the Public Security Bureau in City B.
The openwork iron gate was trampled on the ground, and the battle between humans and beasts was in full swing.
It's clear that these are the members of the police station who are holding out, and their opponents are some sharp-clawed vipers.
With the thick outer wall as cover, only about five fanged vipers could stand side by side at the gate at the same time, and the members of the police department barely managed to repel several waves of fanged vipers' attacks.
These clawed reptiles can suddenly strike multiple times in quick succession, and security personnel with low defenses are likely to be killed in one round if they are hit by them.
Fortunately, the security guards in the front row were all soldiers holding shields, and they were layered up to block the entrance.
The shield guards constantly used their armor-piercing and shield counterattack skills to engage them in combat, and under their attacks, the aggro of the vipers was firmly drawn to them.
Once the physical damage dealers on both sides and behind the shield guards have stabilized their aggro, they can unleash their attacks. With armor penetration and defense reduction, the group can quickly eliminate a viper by focusing their fire.
Countless healing professionals stood at the entrance of the police station, casting healing spells whenever the shield guards were injured.
Mages and ranged physical damage dealers stand atop the high-rise of the Sheriff's Hall, a strategically advantageous position from which they can strike units at greater distances.
With their coordinated efforts, the Claw Viper was severely damaged by ranged attacks as soon as it entered the encirclement of melee classes.
They didn't gain any advantage; on the contrary, more and more of their companions died.
As the last viper fell, the archer signaled that the enemy was retreating.
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy. They had gained a lot of experience points this time, and some people had even successfully leveled up with a flash of golden light.
Melee classes were even more delighted; the absence of monster attacks meant they could take a short break.
Especially for the shield guard class, you should know that the weight of the iron armor and iron shield is very high, and swinging them around for a long time is also very physically demanding.
The gate had been torn apart by the clawed vipers, forcing them to fight monsters far superior to themselves. Surprisingly, through coordinated efforts, they were able to defeat these monsters.
The other melee classes started frantically blocking the doorway with heavy objects, but it was of little use; the monsters' claws were extremely sharp, and the obstacles were ineffective.
However, even if they can delay for a little while, they can buy some time. This battle is going to last for who knows how long. With obstacles blocking the door, they can at least recover some more stamina.
With remote professionals on lookout duty, everyone gathered together to brainstorm countermeasures.
Some planned to take the opportunity to go out and contact the city lord, while others planned to hold out until the city lord brought people to rescue them.
Without unified leadership, everyone insists on their own views and cannot reach a consensus.
Just then, the ranged classes noticed a large, dark group of monsters appearing on the street, heading towards the police station.
They hurriedly sounded the alarm, notifying the melee classes resting downstairs of an approaching new threat.
With the victory they had just won as a foundation, the group wasn't too nervous. They chatted and laughed as they set up a trap, waiting for the second round of attack.
Based on the descriptions from the ranged professions, they roughly knew what the monsters looked like.
A group of monsters that looked like dung beetles magnified hundreds of times attacked. They walked upright, had black shells, and two slender, long forelimbs with countless sharp barbs at the front, making them terrifying to behold.
Once they reach the doorway, melee fighters can get a closer look at their opponents.
They have many barbs on their heads, a shell as hard as steel, and a mouth full of sharp teeth under their blood-red eyes.
"I wonder if their appearance matches their strength," said a young wanderer.
The razor-clawed viper looked very powerful, but it turned out to be all show and no substance.
"What's a bunch of dung beetles afraid of? Are they afraid of it rolling dung balls?" another person chimed in.
His humorous remarks made everyone burst into laughter and eased their tension.
【Water and Fertilizer Warrior】(Scarab)
Level: 27
Attack power: 25-35
Defense: 10-20
Health Points: 300
Skill:?
If Liu Nian were present, he would have seen that its skill is Electric Spark, and that it has a chance to release a Lightning Charged Bomb after being attacked.
Furthermore, its other skill is a medium-level life recovery ability, which means that its life recovery ability is very high. If it is not focused down and killed, it can recover its full health in a very short time.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs." Only when they broke through the obstacles and engaged in battle with the group did everyone realize how terrifying they were.
As usual, the shield guards used their high-aggro armor-piercing and shield bashing attacks on the water-fattening warriors, secretly pleased with themselves as they watched the dung beetles frantically pound against the neat shield formation after they were in pain. They thought to themselves, "These dung beetles are nothing special."
That's right, targets that can be mocked can usually be slowly worn down by the Shield Guard.
As a result, the passive skill "Electric Spark" of several Water-Fertilizer Warriors was triggered. In an instant, countless charged lightning balls flowed from the feet of the Water-Fertilizer Warriors and then surged outwards along the ground.
The armored shield guards were the first to be hit, their scalps tingling from the electric shocks. One unlucky fellow was killed after being struck several times by lightning balls.
The air was filled with the aroma of roasting meat and the smell of burnt meat.
When a member of the police department was killed, everyone's smiles vanished, and their expressions turned serious.
The melee classes on both sides weren't shocked many times, but they finally realized how terrifying the Water Fertilizer Warrior was.
But knowing something is one thing, wanting to retreat is another.
If it's just them, retreating is easy because their class is the Wanderer, which has a lot of control and movement skills.
However, the front ranks consisted of slow-moving shield guards who could not abandon their comrades and retreat alone.
Moreover, if they were to evacuate now, the entire gate would be lost, and the healing professions behind it would be in danger, which is unacceptable to them.
The dilemma leaves melee classes at a loss, and the passive ability of the Water-type Warrior also restricts their actions.
The archers upstairs were also in a dilemma, as their attacks would also trigger the Water Fertilizer Warrior's passive skill.
While everyone was in a dilemma, the mages, who hadn't made a move in a long time, finally stood up and shouted loudly for the melee classes to retreat.
As soon as he finished speaking, several walls of fire appeared at the main entrance, blocking the water and fertilizer warriors' path forward.
A few reckless water-fertilizer warriors attempted to break through the fire wall, only to be met with another blizzard hitting the entrance.
That's a second-tier water magic: Blizzard, an area-of-effect attack that can slow targets within the area by 35%. It's said that exceptionally talented ice mages can achieve a 50% slow effect.
With the help of the mages, the melee classes at the entrance escaped back into the police station without any serious injury.
Healers are healing their wounds, but magic resistance is scarce, especially lightning resistance, which is causing almost all melee classes to lose some health.
After the melee classes gradually withdrew, the archers finally had no more worries. They unleashed their full power, firing a barrage of shots at the water-soil warriors at the entrance.
A barrage of arrows rained down on the slowed-down water-fertilizer warriors. The poor creatures had to endure not only the burning fire but also the hail, and were eventually riddled with arrows.
Even as they were dying, their passive abilities were still being triggered. In an instant, ice, fire, and lightning gathered at the entrance of the police station, creating a dazzling and spectacular display of colors.
