The refugees' bodies swelled rapidly, and a faint holy light emanated from beneath their skin, as if responding to a summons.
"Don't move!"
A patrolman noticed the unusual behavior of the refugees and immediately pointed his weapon at them as they approached.
However, the refugee seemed not to hear anything. Instead of stopping, he quickened his pace and walked briskly toward the patrolmen.
"Bang!"
A bullet pierced the refugee's arm instantly, but shockingly, the refugee showed no signs of pain and continued to move forward mechanically, like a walking corpse.
Under the holy light, the group of refugees suddenly seemed to lose their minds, recklessly breaking through the patrolmen's defenses and rushing madly towards the swamp.
These were originally just ordinary and weak refugees, but now they were moving extremely fast.
With the blessing of the holy light, they not only successfully passed through the high walls of the array set up by Li Yang, but also completely ignored the terrifying pressure and rushed straight into the depths of the swamp.
Sensing the approaching power of the holy light, Antonio's face revealed a cold expression, and he spoke calmly:
"The time has come to dedicate ourselves to the light!"
Meanwhile, the crowd around the observation deck was intently watching the dragon vein.
Suddenly, thousands of refugees with eerie white eyes surged in from afar like a tide.
These refugees seemed to have lost consciousness, and their bodies emitted a white light like holy light, illuminating a small area around them.
"Refugees?"
"That's not right. How could ordinary refugees possibly enter the high walls and array set up by City Lord Li Yang?"
"Look, something seems off about them."
One of the awakened beings suddenly remembered the foreigners who had been sitting on the observation deck earlier and exclaimed in surprise:
"They are puppets of the Vatican!"
Upon hearing this, everyone angrily looked at Antonio, who was emitting holy light.
The Vatican is actually using the refugees of the Central Plains as puppets!
This further convinced the Central Plains Awakeners on the observation deck that the outsider was an enemy of the Central Plains.
Driven by the holy light above, the refugees rushed madly into the swamp.
After this large group of refugees, protected by holy light, approached the swamp, they did not hesitate to use their flesh and blood to frantically ram the great formation maintained by the awakened military personnel!
Upon seeing this, the awakened military personnel within the formation showed disdain. These refugees were nothing more than insignificant ants; how could they possibly break through the formation with their bare hands?
They initially didn't want to pay attention, but after a moment, they were surprised to find that the golden array had somehow been infused with the aura of holy light, causing the array's suppressive power to gradually weaken.
The awakened members of the military finally realized the problem and hurriedly shouted to Zhou Xuan below:
"Quick, that outsider is up to no good!"
At this moment, Zhou Xuan, wielding a large metal hammer, barely managed to shatter the giant pillar's obstruction.
Hearing the shouts of the military personnel, he couldn't help but exert all his strength to rush towards the dragon pulse.
Upon seeing this, the awakened beings within the great formation all attacked simultaneously.
Yun Che attacked first, his body surging with purple demonic energy, like a furious purple dragon slamming its palm onto the golden array.
Immediately, the great formation began to shake slightly, and the purple demonic energy continuously assaulted the military personnel inside.
Blood Moon also ripped off the red rope around her waist, instantly boosting the energy within her body to a higher level.
She gathered her blood in her hand, and the blood seemed to come alive, transforming into a gigantic, blood-red maw that lunged at the great formation.
As her blood continued to be injected, the suppressive force of the formation decreased again, and the light became increasingly dim.
Nangong Yue and Bai Zhi also joined forces to take action.
The Ten Thousand Figures in Nangong Yue's hand shone brightly, and countless tiny figures flew out of the figure, shouting as they rushed toward the great formation.
Bai Zhi then summoned a giant white crane phantom. The crane let out a long cry and, like a white lightning bolt, smashed fiercely towards the great formation.
At that very moment, Xiao Zhan made his move.
"Thump!"
A tremendous impact rang out, like the sound of a booming bell, making everyone's eardrums ache.
Xiao Zhan's spear, half of which was broken off, moved like a dragon emerging from the sea, plunging into the golden array and creating a gap in it.
Blue frost shimmered at the gap, making the great formation seem as if it could shatter at any moment.
"Damn it, let's go all out!" Seeing this, the other awakened ones also stopped holding back and used their skills to the fullest.
Various powerful supernatural abilities were unleashed, attacking the golden array like a torrential rain.
In an instant, it shone brightly and overflowed with energy.
Under the combined attack of the crowd, the awakened military personnel inside the formation immediately coughed up blood and swayed precariously, clearly on the verge of collapse.
Even if they could share energy and spread the damage, they couldn't withstand the onslaught of so many powerful attacks at this moment.
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Zhan's eyes, and he deliberately spoke loudly and mockingly:
"Zhou Xuan, it seems your grand formation isn't all that great after all!"
Seeing that everyone was attacking the formation to block him, Zhou Xuan was furious.
His eyes widened in anger, and he roared:
"What are you doing!"
Seeing that no one paid attention to his roars and he continued to attack the great formation frantically, Zhou Xuan laughed in extreme anger, his face turning ashen as he said viciously:
"You're courting death! Resisting the military is tantamount to making an enemy of the entire Central Plains!"
"Do you think the resistance forces will have a good end?!"
Zhou Xuan knew that if the plan to seize the dragon vein failed, not only would all those who participated in the resistance die, but he would also perish.
Xiao Zhan smiled slightly and calmly reminded him, "Zhou Xuan, don't forget, you're not the only one here who wants the dragon vein!"
