"Too many... too many..." Lu Qi looked outside with despair on his face. Everywhere he looked, he could see all kinds of ferocious beasts, wolves, leopards, bears, snakes... Any kind of ferocious beast could be clearly seen.
However, this is only the beginning stage of the global beast tide. These ferocious beasts are still only at the first or second level. When mid-level ferocious beasts, high-level ferocious beasts, and even beast god-level ferocious beasts appear, that will be the beginning of the real beast tide.
As a middle-level officer in the Imperial Guard, Lu Qi naturally knew the horror of the global beast tide. He was also very scared and wanted to give up. Because the role of ordinary people like them, except for consuming some low-level beasts and appropriately reducing the effect of the city defense formation, could not play even the slightest decisive role. To put it bluntly, they were cannon fodder.
He was confused. He didn't know how much longer he could hold out, or when the pale blue barrier before him would give out. But he couldn't give up, because behind them lay the Changhe City-State. If they lost, then the tens of millions of people behind them would become food for the ferocious beasts...
"Chairman, when will you come out and save us humans..."
As a member of the new generation of 21st century youth, Lu Qi finally truly understood why the Speaker-General has such a god-like and belief-like status in the eyes of the older generation.
He didn't understand it before, after all, he had never experienced this kind of despair personally, but now he understands.
Because every time a disaster of the level of genocide occurs, every time everyone feels despair, it is almost always Chief Speaker Wu Xiankong who saves the human race with his own strength. The Chief Speaker is the savior of mankind, the only true god of the human race, the Emperor of Heaven in the eyes of Easterners, and God in the eyes of Westerners!
…
At the core of the City Lord's Mansion's formation, an official formation master anxiously sent a message to Liao Feng:
"Lord City Lord, the scale of this global beast tide far exceeds any other in human history. It's still a tide of low-level beasts, and the city defense formation is the same as before, but formation detection has shown that a large number of third-level and even mid-level beasts have gathered hundreds of kilometers away!"
"According to the proportions, the number of mid-level beasts this time will be thousands and thousands of times greater than previous global beast tides. It feels like all the ferocious beasts in the world have come out in droves!"
"Furthermore, the number of high-level beasts behind is also the same, reaching an unimaginable number..."
After listening to the report from his subordinates, Liao Feng's slightly relaxed mood, which had been caused by knowing that Li Ran could control the Zerg and support the Changhe city-state, fell again. He frowned and sighed helplessly for a long time.
What could he do in this situation? Although he was the lord of a large city-state and managed tens of millions of people, he was also a peak seventh-level powerhouse with more than a dozen seventh-level powerhouses under him, hundreds of mid-level practitioners, and countless low-level practitioners and royal guards.
But what does it matter? In this war that affected the entire Blue Star and involved the entire human race, he was too insignificant. All he could do was to defend this city to the death...
…
"Mom, I'm so scared. I'm scared by those ferocious beasts in the sky..." A seven or eight-year-old girl in a small high-rise building looked out the window at the ferocious and bloodthirsty beasts in the sky. Her little face was pale and bloodless, and she was obviously scared.
A graceful woman beside her held the little girl in her arms and said with a forced smile, "Don't be afraid, little Rui. Daddy has gone to fight the monsters and will soon drive away the monsters that scared you..."
Not only this mother and daughter, but also many people in Changhe City-State and even the surrounding small and medium-sized city-states, and even ordinary people all over the world, stared blankly at the dense group of ferocious beasts on the sky.
At this time, all ordinary people understood why soldiers were treated preferentially by the country and had so many privileges, and they also understood why practitioners had such a prominent status in the federation.
Seventy or eighty years have passed since the last global crisis. More than 99% of people believe that we are now living in a peaceful and prosperous era. In fact, there is no such thing as a peaceful era. It’s just that someone is carrying the burden for you.
“Roar, roar, roar…”
At this moment, everyone in Changhe City, whether they were practitioners and soldiers guarding the city, or the people shivering at home, heard a unique roar.
At first, it was only faintly audible, but the next moment the beast's roar reached everyone's ears clearly.
What kind of roar was that? Cruel, bloodthirsty, ruthless, cold-blooded, like a pure killing machine. Hearing it would send shivers down your spine, making ordinary people afraid to even move.
Although Liao Feng had ordered the communicators to convey the news to Changhe City-State and the small and medium-sized city-states within the jurisdiction of Changhe City-State, and the loudspeakers in the major city-states were also broadcasting the news, not everyone knew about it at once. Moreover, there were constant roars above their heads, so most people still did not know the true intentions of the Zerg.
…
Lu Qi was now curiously looking at the various Zerg beasts flying in the distance. Although he had never encountered these killing machines, as an officer of the Imperial Guard and a graduate of the Federal Higher Military Academy, he had extremely high professional qualities. How could he not have heard of the Zerg, a forbidden race that had once caused such a huge disturbance?
However, he now felt confused again, because he had received a notice from above saying that these Zerg beasts were reinforcements, not enemies, and were on the side of humans, or in other words, were controlled by humans.
Are they scientists or practitioners? Have they already mastered the method of controlling the Zerg?
Lu Qi's cultivation level is not high, but his professional quality is extremely high, and he is familiar with all kinds of forbidden creatures. You know, the Zerg were once an existence that countless scientists and high-level masters concluded was impossible to control. How come they suddenly came to help humans without any signs?
But the fact is that the Zerg in front of Lu Qi are fighting with the beasts in the beast tide.
…
"Hatch 100 million level 1 insect nests in succession!" Li Ran gave the order decisively.
One hundred million insect nests may seem like an extremely large number, but in the final analysis, they only consume low-level energy, which is equivalent to only 400 million medium-grade spirit stones when converted into medium-level energy.
For Li Ran, who already owns several small and medium-sized mines of medium-grade spirit stones, this is not a big deal at all.
He is extremely fat now. If it weren't for the extremely slow speed at which the Zerg's energy converts into spirit stones, he would have already reached VIP6 or even close to VIP7. VIP6 only costs 100 million spirit coupons.
The number of spirit coupons that can be exchanged for all his current mineral veins combined far exceeds this number. He can also directly exchange the raw ore for spirit coupons, but one ton can only be exchanged for one medium-grade spirit stone. Who knows how long it will take to exchange one hundred million tons, and the Zerg will have to mine it during this period, so it is better to let the Zerg energy conversion chamber slowly convert it. Anyway, he is not in a hurry to upgrade to VIP now.
