At the gate of the city, the human monks returned one after another. Although they repelled the attack of the monsters, there was no trace of excitement on the faces of these people.
Because many of them were carrying the body of a companion on their backs.
Thinking of how they were just sitting together chatting and bragging, and then after a big battle, they were separated from each other in the blink of an eye.
As long as you are not hard-hearted, you will not be happy.
Some newcomers were even sobbing softly, wanting to cry but not daring to do so for fear of affecting their morale.
This was the first time they experienced the cruelty of war.
"Abba!" Seeing Xuanyuan Po, Xuanyuan Yunyao jumped up and waved to him.
There were blood stains all over Xuanyuan Po's body, and there were two horrific wounds on his shoulders, which were werewolf's claw marks.
After Xuanyuan Po saw it, he immediately walked towards her.
One of the young men he took out died on the battlefield, leaving no body behind.
"Abba, are you okay? Does it matter?" Xuanyuan Yunyao asked worriedly.
"I'm fine." Xuanyuan Po's voice was low, he looked at Qin Fan and nodded.
Qin Fan also nodded in response.
Xuanyuan Po said: "Let's go back first. I don't know when the second wave of monster attacks will come."
"I'll bandage your wound when you go back." Xuanyuan Yunyao said, holding his arm.
Qin Fan also followed back to the house.
However, just when Xuanyuan Yunyao was about to bandage Xuanyuan Po, an urgent and harsh horn sounded again.
Xuanyuan Po stood up suddenly: "No, the monster started attacking again!"
"You guys stay in the city while I go out." Ignoring the bandaging, Xuanyuan Po randomly took some herbs and applied them to the wound before striding away.
"Enemy attack, everyone prepare!" Xuanyuan Po shouted into other rooms.
The young men he brought with him immediately rushed out of the house.
At the top of the city, the voice of the captain rang out: "The second wave of monster attacks has begun, everyone is ready to meet the enemy!"
"Let's go!" Xuanyuan Po led his team, joined the centurion's queue, and went to the nearest city gate to wait.
Qin Fan and Xuanyuan Yunyao chased him out.
Xuanyuan Yunyao cursed angrily: "These damn monsters don't even give people any time to rest. Don't they themselves need to rest?"
Qin Fan frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong.
However, this is just a conjecture on his part, and he cannot talk nonsense without evidence.
Following the captain's order, the city gate opened again, and the human monks rushed out as before.
Xuanyuan Yunyao pulled Qin Fan to the top of the city to watch the battlefield below.
Qin Fan looked at the army of monsters in the distance, and the Elephant Clan was still leading the charge.
However, this time the people following behind were no longer the Leopard Clan and the Tiger Clan, but all the Wolf Clan.
Moreover, the number of elephants is much smaller than during the last attack.
Without the powerful Tiger and Leopard tribes, this attack was quickly repelled by the humans. After leaving corpses on the ground, the monster army retreated.
The human casualties this time were much less than last time, but dozens of people were killed and hundreds of people were injured.
The retreat horn sounded from the top of the city, and everyone retreated into the city one after another.
Xuanyuan Po had two more wounds on his body this time.
Xuanyuan Yunyao bandaged him immediately.
Just as they were bandaged, the enemy's attack bugle sounded again from the top of the city.
"Damn it, what's going on with these monsters?"
Xuanyuan Po cursed loudly.
Many people heard the horn sound and began to curse.
However, they immediately returned to their respective teams and attacked again.
Qin Fan and Xuanyuan Yunyao also climbed to the top of the city again. After seeing the lineup of monsters this time, Qin Fan's suspicions were basically confirmed.
He glanced at the captain who was standing at the top of the city commanding the entire battlefield. This man was in his fifties, with a majestic appearance, a tall stature, and a sense of self-power without anger.
Qin Fan said: "The frequency of attacks by the monsters is very fast, and the number of monsters that attack each time is not large. They also frequently change the group of monsters. Obviously they intend to use this tactic to tire out the human monks."
The captain glanced at Qin Fan, nodded and said: "You are right, but monsters can do this, but we humans cannot."
"Why?" Qin Fan asked.
The captain said with some helplessness: "Because the number of monsters is ten times that of our humans, they can use this tactic, but we humans cannot."
"If we divide the team into two groups and reduce the number by half, it will be very difficult to face the attack of the monsters and the casualties will be greatly increased."
"Even if we know that the monster deliberately uses this tactic to tire us out, we have no other choice."
It seems that this captain did not fail to see the monster's plot, but it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
If the troops are insufficient, if they are forcibly divided, it will have the opposite effect.
Qin Fan also understands this.
The captain added: "However, our human race is not unprepared. When the cultivation of the people fighting in front is almost exhausted, we will no longer take the initiative to attack, but defend the city and give them time to recover."
No wonder there were thousands of people on top of the city, but no one came to support them.
"Besides, our human race has other advantages. We have elixirs, magic weapons, and city defense equipment." The captain seemed to be comforting Qin Fan, worried that the young human race would be frightened by his words.
Qin Fan nodded: "You are right. Although the human race is not large in number, it has its own advantages."
Soon, this wave of attacks was repelled again.
When the people outside returned to the city, the captain immediately issued an order for everyone to repair in place and wait for the monsters to attack the city.
At this time, many old people, women and children came out of the city, each holding food and elixirs and quickly distributing them to everyone.
At the top of the city, the commander once again issued an order: "You will restore your cultivation with all your strength in a moment. Do not move rashly until you receive my order."
"Do you understand everything?"
"Got it!" everyone replied loudly.
Of course, not everyone needs to rest. Some powerful corps commanders choose to continue climbing to the top of the city to help.
Xuanyuan Po took two pills and chose to go to the top of the city to continue killing the enemy.
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Yunyao quietly said to Qin Fan: "Brother Qin Fan, let's go to the top of the city and have a look. Don't worry, I will just stay away and take a look, and will never go forward."
Qin Fan didn't believe her: "Let's take a look later!"
Soon, the ground began to tremble, and it was obvious that the monsters were getting closer to the town.
However, the human monks under the city did not care about this and tried their best to restore their cultivation. They all knew that the sooner they could restore their cultivation, the sooner they could go to the city to kill the monsters.
In the sky, patches of dark clouds suddenly appeared and flew down towards the city.
"It's the harpy!"
They were more than a dozen harpies with black wings. They had bodies over two meters long and their wings spread four to five meters. Fortunately, there were not too many in number.
"The hawk demon is specially used to attack the city. It creates chaos for the defenders at the top of the city and cooperates with the monster beasts to attack the city." Someone explained.
However, the human race has obviously been prepared for this situation.
The commander calmly ordered: "Fire the falcon crossbow!"
