As a large city-state, Changhe City-State occupies a much larger area than small and medium-sized city-states, and has a large population. It did not have time to shrink the formation and reduce the area of attack in the first place, so the nuclear energy of the formation was consumed very quickly.
In just less than a few hours, a lot of energy was consumed. This was because the hidden energy on the back was activated, and the speed of replenishing the array energy was much faster than the ordinary energy speed.
This time, the beast tide came too suddenly, too fast, and too powerfully. It directly enveloped the entire city-state, plunging the sky into darkness. Such a global beast tide has never happened before.
In this case, it might not be long before Changhe City-State would have to sacrifice human lives in exchange for the time it takes to restore the energy of the city defense formation.
That is to say, the formation will be opened all around, leaving only the blue formation membrane above the head, to prevent birds and beasts from breaking in easily. In this way, the core energy of the formation will not be consumed too much, and there will be enough energy to meet the attack of the mid-level beast tide and the aftermath of the attack of the high-level beasts.
But now, thanks to the support of the Zerg just now, almost all the ferocious beasts have been attracted away. This can be said to have saved at least tens of thousands of lives. You must know that when the city defense formations around are opened, although the Royal Guards will also use some trump cards, there will undoubtedly be some fish that slip through the net.
However, even if only a little bit of them slipped in, it would pose a huge threat to the people of Changhe City-State. And with so many ferocious beasts on the horizon, even if a little bit slipped in, it would definitely mean a lot, so it would be very easy for tens of thousands of people to die.
"Lord City Lord, a mid-level ferocious beast has appeared in Zhu City prematurely. The situation is critical. In just a short while, the energy content of the city defense formation has been reduced by one-tenth..."
At this moment, a communications soldier from the City Lord's Mansion reported to Liao Feng very urgently.
"What? A mid-level beast has appeared in Zhucheng so soon?" Liao Feng's face changed drastically, and he muttered:
"It seems that this global beast tide is more dangerous than we imagined, alas..."
Liao Feng shook his head, raised his left hand to check the time and said:
"Tell Du Su to hold on for now, shrink the formation with all your strength to reduce the area under attack, support will be here soon!"
The signalman saluted and said, "Yes!"
"Xiao Ran, you'd better hurry up. This time it all depends on you..." Liao Feng was full of hope.
…
At the Zhucheng City Lord's Mansion, after receiving the message from Liao Feng, City Lord Du Su smiled bitterly. If he could provide support, he would have come long ago and would not have said such words.
What is he thinking? In the face of the global beast tide, even super-giant city-states are unable to take care of themselves, so how can they have the time to support other places?
Moreover, what City Lord Liao said just now was simply a fantasy, such as not to panic when encountering Zerg, they are on your side. Now that I think about it, the lucky fantasy just now was completely crazy.
"well……"
Zhucheng Lord Du Su sighed. Without looking up, he could see all kinds of ferocious beasts in the distance that merged with the sky and earth. All he could do now was to retract the city defense formation and wait for support from above. Although the hope of this support was slim, at least he had a hope.
Suddenly, he heard some very special sounds. He was stunned and looked carefully into the distance, and found that the birds and beasts that had been besieging the city defense formation were flying towards the sky.
He had never been to the Zhehang city-state, but he knew a lot about the forbidden Zerg. The sound just now was clearly the roar of a Zerg velociraptor!
"Great, great! City Lord Liao really didn't lie to me. With the support of the Zerg outside, although it won't completely eliminate the beast tide, it will give Zhucheng a huge breathing space to replenish its energy consumption!"
The Lord of Zhucheng looked at the Zerg in the sky, whose scale was no less than or even greater than that of the ferocious beasts. Although he didn't understand when the velociraptors would be able to fly, he didn't think much about it. It was great to have the Zerg involved.
After all, ferocious beasts are brainless creatures. When attacked by other creatures, they will naturally be attracted away.
The soldiers of the Zhucheng Royal Guard, who were ready for a decisive battle, looked at the Zerg, whose size was even larger than that of the ferocious beasts, in shock.
"Oh my god, what are these? They are so horrifying! They are even more cold-blooded and cruel than these ferocious beasts. They are bloodthirsty and feel no pain!"
"Zerg! This is the Zerg, a special forbidden race that only exists in the taboo area of the Zhehang city-state!"
"Zerg? I have some impression of them, aren't they said to be uncontrollable? My dad is a Zerg fan. When I was a kid, I often saw him looking up information about the Zerg..."
"Have you noticed that almost every one of these Zergs that fill the sky and the ground has reached the peak of the first level?"
"No, they are stronger than the peak of the first level, almost close to the second level. They are all half a step into the second level. It's incredible!"
An officer came to his senses, looked down at his watch, and then found that his subordinates were in a daze. He immediately shouted angrily:
"What are you guys daydreaming about? Hurry up and focus your fire on those mid-level beasts. Don't worry about hitting the Zerg. We've got the order from above!"
"Oh oh..." The soldiers responded in succession, and then they all stared at the mid-level ferocious beast in the distance.
“Zizizi…”
Blue energy beams shot out from the soldiers' high-powered electromagnetic rifles, focusing on the giant beasts that were tens or hundreds of meters tall.
Soldiers could easily shoot such a huge beast without even aiming.
The high-electromagnetic rifle has extremely strong penetrating power. Human soldiers are synonymous with super strong attack and super low defense. Even a mid-level behemoth of one or two hundred meters cannot withstand the concentrated fire of hundreds or thousands of soldiers, not to mention the focused attention of various energy particle cannons.
"Boom..."
A one hundred meter tall fourth level ape-like beast collapsed with a loud bang, splashing up dust dozens of feet high. Under him, there were at least a dozen low level beasts and swift insects that had no time to dodge, and all of them were crushed into meat paste.
Seeing this scene, the soldiers were happy but also a little worried. Wouldn't this anger the Zerg? You know, when they focused their fire on this ape-like beast just now, they accidentally injured many friendly forces.
"Don't worry, everyone. Since the higher-ups said so, they must have their reasons. Besides, these Zerg seem to be killing machines. Do you think they have any emotions?" The soldiers' commander spoke again.
So, the soldiers took a closer look at the Zerg. Well, it seemed that they really had no emotions. As long as they could move, they would keep attacking the ferocious beasts, giving people the feeling that they were machines.
Li Ran sent 20 billion level 1 swift insects to Changhe City-State and the major city-states under its jurisdiction. However, these things that he originally used as cannon fodder turned out to be unexpectedly useful.
There is no other reason. The most terrifying thing about the beast tide is its number. The weakest beasts are equivalent to early-stage first-level practitioners, and more than 99% of the human race are ordinary people. They can only hide in the city defense formation and are of no help at all. They are just a burden!
