Time passed quickly, and three days passed in a flash.
During these three days, whether on the tall and thick walls of the Snowy Great Wall or on the even taller towers of the Snowy City of Northern Xinjiang behind, there were many sergeants in battle armor staring at the opposite side day and night. At the mountain pass, their nerves were so tense that even if they saw a rabbit running past, they would stare at it carefully for a while.
However, in these three days, the opposite side of the mountain pass has always been quiet. Not to mention monsters, not even a wild beast such as a jackal, tiger, or leopard has been seen.
Just when many people were secretly wondering whether the person called "Wu Qu" had delivered false news, causing everyone to be highly nervous these past few days and unable to relax at all times, a figure finally appeared slowly in the middle of the mountain pass in the distance. Show up.
The sharp-eyed cultivator watched intently and saw the figure walking slowly from the other side of the last gentle slope at the mountain pass to the top of the slope. When its body completely appeared on the top of the slope, everyone realized that it was actually an extremely majestic tiger.
The tiger stood there quietly, looking ahead at the snow-covered Great Wall that blocked the entire mountain pass.
The head, which was the size of a millstone, turned slightly to the side, looking across the Snowy Great Wall and towards the towers of Snowy City in Northern Xinjiang. The long iron rod-like tail behind him swayed slightly from side to side, and suddenly raised his head and let out a cry to the sky. The deafening tiger roar!
On the slopes on both sides of the mountain pass, the dwarf pines trembled like an earthquake under the tiger's roar, and the old snow on the trees was shaken down, as if a blizzard suddenly fell. .
After a while, the roar of the tiger stopped.
However, when the tiger jumped up to the nearest low hill, the trembling of the dwarf pine trees not only did not stop, but became more intense.
Immediately afterwards, a dense and chaotic rumbling sound came from the other side of the short slope. As the sound became louder and louder, even the sergeants on the distant city wall felt the sound coming from under their feet. There was a faint tremor!
"The beast tide is coming! The beast tide is coming!" Behind the wall of Snow City, there are two extremely high watchtowers. There are people on the towers who are always paying attention to the situation on the other side of the mountain pass. At this moment, they have already activated the amplification instrument in their hands. Another person next to him also vigorously beat the big drum behind him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of drums rang out, and the whole snow-covered city in Northern Xinjiang was like a dormant giant beast, which was soon awakened by the rumbling drums!
A huge pale golden light curtain was like a big bowl that covered the sky, turning the entire Snowy City of Northern Xinjiang upside down, leaving only the Snowy Great Wall on the north side still exposed outside the city protection formation. Preparing to face the impact of the beast tide, thousands of archers and combat teams composed of monks appeared on the city wall and formed a formation. Hundreds of giant crossbows and spiritual fire cannons were ready to go in an instant.
Accompanied by dense footsteps like muffled thunder, countless low-level monsters rushed from the other side of the mountain pass like a tide, each one panting heavily, their red and bloodshot eyes full of violent eyes, even those flying in the sky The birds and monsters that came to cover up the sky and the sun all seemed to be going crazy, making noisy bird calls in the air, and rushed straight towards the human race on the city wall to swoop away.
"Fire arrows!!!"
"Get into formation!!!"
On the city wall, the shouts of the human soldiers were also heard endlessly, and shields flashing with various colors of light rose into the sky, like colorful flowers that suddenly bloomed on the city wall.
Although it is a condensed object of mana, it is like a real object with quality and substance. Whether it is the small fireballs and water arrows spewed by the flying monsters in the sky, or the monster birds relying on brute force to rush down to fight, when they hit these lights, When it was above the shield, most of it was actually blocked by those shields.
The magic attacks from the demon birds and monster beasts hit the light shield, causing countless brilliant lights to bloom again on the light shield, flying everywhere like sparks. It seemed as if a grand fireworks suddenly started above the city wall.
However, these fireworks are deadly and dangerous.
Every time there is an attack that slips through the network, especially the attack from the big monsters hiding among the low-level bird monsters, when it passes through the barrier formed by the shield and lands on the city wall, there will immediately be the screams of the human sergeants. There is a sound - either flesh and blood will fly everywhere, or flames will ignite, and some powerful attacks will explode on the city wall, blasting the human soldiers guarding the city off the city wall, and falling into the city are already densely packed with monsters. The group will be torn apart and swallowed up by the swarming monster beasts in an instant, just like a drop of water falling into the rolling waves, and soon disappearing without a trace.
However, compared to the losses of the well-prepared humans, the casualties of these low-level monsters were obviously greater.
On the city wall, arrows rained like a waterfall, and hundreds of fireballs, ice cones, five thunder talismans, and wind blades continued to rise into the sky along with the rain of flying arrows, wreaking havoc in the dark clouds composed of birds and monsters. Every time When it explodes, holes and cracks will be torn out in that dark cloud.
The birds and monsters in the sky were almost in pieces, screaming and falling in the rain of arrows, as if there was a heavy rain turned from the corpses of monsters and beasts in the sky.
However, those holes and cracks will be filled again in an instant by the beasts and beasts, launching a new round of revenge-like attacks on the city.
On the top of the city, a spiritual fire cannon let out a deafening roar. Every time a spiritual light was ejected, a large area of monster beasts under the city would be blasted to pieces, revealing the blackened ground below that was still smoking. .
However, just like the ripples caused by the occasional stone thrown into the waterfall, the empty space blasted by the spirit fire cannon will soon be filled again by monsters. Those low-level monsters seem to know no fear and fear. The so-called "nothing", they all roared crazily and rushed towards the city wall regardless of their own safety.
When the monster in front dies, the monster behind will continue to move forward on the corpse of its companion.
If the monster in front stumbles, or is injured by arrows from the city and falls down, the monster behind will step on it without hesitation, using it as a stepping stone, just to jump. Sometimes I can jump up the high city wall.
From the moment the tiger roared, to the time when more than a hundred casualties appeared on the city wall, it only took less than half a stick of incense. However, the corpses of monsters piled up under the city wall were more than two feet thick. !
After half a stick of incense had passed, ferocious monsters with strong leaping abilities began to leap up the city wall on their thick corpses, charging into the midst of ordinary human archers and killing them wantonly.
Whenever such a situation occurs, the warriors and cultivators on the city will immediately take action to kill the monsters rushing to the top of the city. The civilians guarding behind the city wall will quickly step forward and kill the injured people. He was carried down the city wall for treatment.
"Clear the corpses in the city quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone had already jumped up to the wall. Under the cover of others, he faced the spikes, wind blades or fireballs that some alien monsters below were shooting towards the city, and released powerful fireballs or winds towards the bottom of the city wall. The binding technique comes.
In an instant, strong winds and thunder and fire rolled at the foot of the city wall. The corpses of countless monsters were either blown to pieces by the thunder and fire, or were picked up by the strong wind and thrown towards the mountain pass. Although many low-level monks were killed by the monsters because of this. , but the corpses of monster beasts piled up under the city also seemed to be much less...
From the very beginning of the battle with the beast tide, the battle seemed to have directly entered a climax.
The shouts of killing, the roars of monsters, and the roar of attack spells and explosions were mixed together, echoing among the mountains, like playing an elegy of killing and death.
Amid this seemingly endless elegy, the city wall, which was hundreds of feet long, was enveloped by a bloody smell that was so strong that even the mountain wind could not dissipate it. At the foot of the city wall, a newly appeared dark red stream, mixed with the blood of monsters and humans, gurgled along the low-lying terrain into the distance...
In the Snowy City of Northern Border, the city lord Li Jianyin and many generals were gathered in a special hall at this moment.
There are more than a dozen five-foot-square light curtains scattered on the entire wall of the hall. Within the light curtains, you can clearly see the snow-covered Great Wall that is fighting fiercely, and you can see that there are still monsters rushing over the mountains and plains. On the other side of the mountain pass, you can see Frost City and Winter City, which are quiet at the moment without a single monster. You can also see images of several other important places inside and outside the city.
"Geng Liqiu, although this wave of monsters looks menacing, it seems to be no different from previous years!" A middle-aged general wearing golden armor and fully armed said to Geng Liqiu, "That friend of yours Where’s the big demon you’re talking about?”
This middle-aged general named Meng Lei was another partial general of the Snow Dragon Army. He had always been at odds with Geng Liqiu and would never miss any opportunity to confront Geng Liqiu.
Geng Liqiu couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this, and said coldly: "I have been cooperating with him to slay demons for decades, and I believe that his judgment will never be wrong. What's more, how can we deal with such a big beast tide? Can you just use it to fool people and make jokes?"
"Hmph, there are not just one or two charlatans who make money by using scaremongering." Meng Lei snorted coldly, "A casual cultivator with no family and no sect can cultivate without resorting to deception, abduction, killing and robbery. When it comes to the stage of transformation into gods, haha..."
"Meng Lei, the beast tide has just begun, are you so anxious to fight the big monster to the death?" Seeing that he insulted Qu Wuming, Geng Liqiu's eyes sharpened, and he said tit for tat, "When the big monster really appears, you Don’t be a coward like a grandson and hide behind without daring to fight like before!”
"Geng Liqiu! You..."
Just when Meng Lei was about to say something else, he heard the city lord Li Jianyin scold: "You two! The enemy is at hand. Don't think about how to deal with the monster formation. Why are you arguing?! Save your energy for arguing. Wouldn’t it be better to kill a few more big demons in a while?! Liqiu, are all the outside cultivators you asked to contact in place?”
"Report to the city lord, everyone is in place!" Geng Liqiu hurriedly stood up and replied, "I have distributed the jade talisman of communication to them. As long as an abnormal number of big demons appear, I can notify them as soon as possible to help in the battle!"
"Okay!" Li Jianyin nodded, then looked at the other person and said, "Have the city defense array and spirit stone reserves been checked again?"
"Back to the city lord, the spirit stone reserve is sufficient. I have arranged manpower to strengthen the security of the core of the formation! City lord, please rest assured!"
"Yeah." Li Jianyin's eyes fell on the light curtain on the other side of the mountain pass again. Somehow, he always felt a little uneasy and uneasy in his heart.
"Look, what is that?!" A moment later, some of the sharp-eyed generals present suddenly shouted in surprise.
Everyone's eyes fell on the light curtain, but they saw that on the other side of the mountain pass, there were suddenly a few small black dots in the sky, which seemed to be slowly flying towards the Snowy City of Beijiang...
