"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
After the first batch of Zerg hatched in Yuncheng, they quickly rushed to the sky within the city-state formation, like a green torrent, encircling and suppressing the ferocious beasts that broke in.
“Ah…”
Ferocious beasts below the intermediate level, especially those at the first and second levels, have almost no ability to resist and are quickly torn apart and devoured by the swift insects, leaving not even a trace of flesh and blood.
The third-level beasts, except for some crustaceans that were originally thick-skinned and held out for a while, were basically surrounded and killed by the sea of insects. Even the fourth-level beasts were still resisting stubbornly.
But surrounded by the boundless sea of insects, they completely lost their ability to move. Because there were too many of them, they didn't even know how to attack. No matter how hard they hit and bit, it seemed to have no effect. The swift insects could never be killed.
However, the Zerg couldn't do anything to these fourth-level beasts for a while. If they were human cultivators, their spiritual energy would have been exhausted long ago. But the beasts all have thick skin and flesh, and the fourth-level beasts are already mid-level beasts, which are qualitatively different from low-level beasts!
Li Ran’s first batch of Zergs only consisted of velociraptors, and they were level 1. Although they were fully equipped and equivalent to a cultivator who was half a step away from the second level, don’t even think about taking them down within a few minutes.
“Swoosh!”
At this moment, a golden sword-shaped light with a long tail shadow pierced a fourth-level giant wolf beast surrounded by a sea of insects!
"puff!"
The fourth-level giant wolf beast had no way to dodge and was directly pierced through the vitals by the golden sword-shaped shadow. Bright red blood splattered everywhere, soaking the swift insects surrounding it.
The green swift insect was bathed in a layer of blood, which still made anyone who saw it terrified and terrified, but in the eyes of the people of Yuncheng, it was extremely peaceful.
This fourth-level giant wolf had killed or eaten more than hundreds of people in just a few minutes. How many people's parents and children were eaten or killed by it. Now it was finally killed. It really hurt people's hearts.
"Is this really okay? Although I killed the fourth-level beast, it seems these swift insects were also affected by me. More than a dozen of them died!"
The cultivator who killed the fourth-order giant wolf with one sword had a depressed look on his face. No matter what the Zerg had done in the past, they were now his allies and comrades-in-arms. As a soldier, he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart for killing his comrades-in-arms.
"Forget it. Since the Martial God said that these Zerg will surround and restrict the movements of the mid-level beasts and let us clean them out, and we don't have to worry about the Zerg, then... it shouldn't be a big problem..."
After thinking about it, the cultivator didn't worry too much, because there were still many ferocious beasts in Yuncheng that had not been eliminated, not to mention that there were still some fish that slipped through the net outside.
“Swoosh…”
The man then immediately began his journey of hunting down mid-level beasts. This was something he had never imagined before. Killing a fourth-level beast with one sword? Without the Zerg surrounding him, the mid-level beast would have been unable to move or dodge his vital points. This was impossible!
And now, this fourth-level cultivator has done it. As a gold-attributed sword cultivator, his gold-attributed sword energy is extremely sharp. With a full-strength sword strike, not only a fourth-level beast, but even a fifth-level beast can break through its defense. For him, killing a fourth-level beast that cannot move or dodge with one sword is as easy as cutting vegetables or melons.
…
At the same time, after the first wave of insects hatched, Li Ran controlled a small group of ferocious beasts to encircle the city-state, and most of the swift insects flew out of the city defense formation.
“Roar, roar, roar…”
“Boom boom…”
The swift insects and ferocious beasts in front collided with each other, attracted their hatred, and then ran towards the sky and the distance.
These ferocious beasts were creatures with well-developed limbs and simple minds. When they saw these reptiles dare to bite them face to face and then run away, they could not bear the violent temper in their hearts. They roared and rushed towards the Zerg.
"They're finally gone, great!"
A soldier from the Yuncheng Imperial Guard shouted loudly, his heart filled with passion. He had been extremely depressed before, watching his companions die one by one, and he was truly panicked and frightened.
Now that these damn beasts have finally stopped charging towards their positions, they feel much more comfortable.
Not only this imperial guard soldier, but other soldiers as well, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, finally feeling a little relieved.
A commander of the Imperial Guard also thanked every soldier through the headset, and reminded them that they should not relax at this stage and that everyone should work together to overcome this disaster for all mankind.
In addition to boosting morale, he also ordered all the guards to change their combat methods, that is, to focus their fire on the fourth-level ferocious beasts and the ferocious beasts that broke into the position.
One is a fourth-order beast that is difficult for the Zerg to kill at this stage, and the other is very likely to break into the city and harm the people in the city.
After changing the battle strategy, the crisis in Yuncheng was greatly reduced. Basically, from this moment on, no ferocious beast could sneak into the city.
Even if one or two lucky birds and beasts managed to get in, they would be immediately surrounded by the swarm of insects, or killed by the practitioners who had been waiting for them.
Just like this, before anyone knew it, the ferocious beasts in Yuncheng were surrounded and wiped out, and the ferocious beasts outside the city defense formation were also attracted away in large numbers. For the first time, the absorption and loss ratio of the core energy of the city defense formation was directly proportional!
The energy of the Yuncheng city defense formation, which originally had less than 50% left, was restored to 50% and then the full-scale formation was activated again. This time, no one would be able to escape the net.
Even if the full-scale formation is activated again, because the Zerg has almost tied down more than 90% of the ferocious beasts, the core energy of the formation is still recovering steadily. If there are no accidents in the future, it is only a matter of time before it recovers to its original level.
This is not only the case in Yuncheng, but also in all the human city-states on Blue Star. Because of the hatching of the first batch of insect nests, the beast tide is basically no longer a problem at this stage. The core energy of the formation is no longer in deficit, and there is no need to open some channels and exchange human lives for time to restore the formation energy.
People all over the world have felt the protection from the Zerg. While they are extremely grateful to them in their hearts, their gratitude to Li Ran has reached an unprecedented level.
This time, Li Ran's popularity reached an unprecedented level, and even his master, the Chief Speaker Wu Xiankong, could not match him. Although Wu Xiankong was the savior of mankind and the only true God of mankind, and they believed in him, he was too far away from them after all.
But Li Ran is a real person. His image is often active in major social platforms, forums, and news media, making them feel no strangeness or distance. It is like a very popular star who stands up to save all mankind when disaster strikes!
Li Ran's master Wu Xiankong has disappeared for seventy or eighty years. He has shown up very rarely in these seventy or eighty years. To the new generation, he obviously seems a little unreal.
