Volume 1 The Land of the Dead Chapter 124 Beast Tide
The rapid sound of alarm bells resounded through the tribe, and priests in animal skin robes ran between the tents, calling everyone who might be left behind, and priests in the air chanting orders for emergency transfers.
Most of the tribal area was covered in mountains and jungles made of the tentacles of the sacred tree Nuratis, and bands of warriors rode out of the town to the scattered gathering places around the united tribes, and the outpost was obviously too late to inform, and all they could do was pray.
The sudden arrival of the Great Evacuation Order was a great deal of confusion for both the tribesmen and the ordinary warriors, and no one knew why such an incredible order had been given, but the authority established by the priests for a long time came into play at this moment, and the tribesmen were instructed to move to the Holy Spirit area, which was still a warm place.
As the contamination of the Divine Servants was removed, the sacred tree of Nuratis was gradually heating up, and it was permeated with a thin divinity, which was not a simple adjective, but a true divine power, which had been confirmed by Andrea, who, in the cat's words, "This group of people is really unlucky, if they hadn't come across the primordial creatures, they would have frozen to death in the dissipation of the plane." ”
Of course, while the warming of the sacred tree Nuratis has sheltered the tribesmen, it has also brought some minor problems.
"Gollum...... Gollum ...... Gollum ......"
The strange sound of friction came from far away from the grassland outside the tribe, as if some huge creature was rushing across the land, and the unprepared tribesmen and warriors could only look around at first when they heard this sound coming from under their feet.
"Beast tide! It's beast tide!"
I don't know who started it, and the tribe quickly became noisy, and the dense and shocking vibration sound was clearly the sound of countless beasts rushing!
"Hyenas, golden-maned lions, stone lizards, oh my god, and armored elephants! I thought they were extinct!" Senna, who had good eyesight, squinted her eyes for a moment and decided not to look at it, for there was really no need to distinguish the overwhelming tide of beasts, and even if thousands of beasts were all hyenas, it would be enough to destroy the tribe's fragile defenses.
In the past, there had been no beast tides, but at most there were less than a hundred beasts impacting the tribe, but now, under the threat of the Great Freeze and hypothermia, the creatures instinctively rushed to the warmest place in this plane, the sacred tree Nuratis.
"Let Usugru continue to guide the natives to take refuge, this space is disturbed by the information of the Divine Servant, and it will take a while for the Pantheon to modify the underlying data here, during this period, we need to resist it!"
The black mass lay on the golden skull, and the lilac canopy unfolded with it as the core, forming a barrier of divine power, blocking the beast tide, but even if the Pantheon urgently raised the energy limit here, Andrea still couldn't exert her full strength, and a brief gap appeared in the barrier under the continuous impact, and the manic beast rushed in!
A large number of houses began to crumble, and even the walls of the town were falling earth and rocks in a violent tremor.
The supposedly solid and heavy earth cracked everywhere, and black terrifying monsters emerged from the cracks with a roar, and the resistance of most ordinary people was not painful to them.
The cries of people fleeing and the cries of wounded people echoed throughout the tribe, and in the midst of these sounds were the constant thud of the earth cracking and the collapse of buildings.
While the tribe was in chaos, a powerful purple beam of light suddenly rose from the Holy Spirit area, and a large number of beasts shrouded in light immediately withered, and at the same time, the cracks in the earth around the town also healed at a speed visible to the naked eye—Usugru once again channeled the power of the holy tree Nuratis at a critical moment, albeit only as a stopgap measure, but the disaster was temporarily contained!
Even so, the situation outside the village is really not optimistic, outside the influence of the barrier, the ice and snow are forming rapidly, and the temperature is close to freezing, which stimulates the strange monsters to break through the blockade as if they are crazy and start attacking humans, those monsters with twisted shapes and poisonous blood make it very difficult for Roger to deal with.
Senna gritted her teeth, and although she couldn't fight, she still did her best to help her people move, rushing towards the monsters that were rushing from the wilderness to the avenue, these frenzied dinosaurs were the greatest threat to civilians compared to the falling temperature!
The beasts on the avenue were fought by the warriors of the tribes, and they were initially exhausted from fighting, but when reinforcements from the various tribes arrived, the balance of strength tilted.
Reinforcements were soon thrown into the battle against the dinosaurs, but as Andrea grew mentally exhausted and the barrier was repaired with difficulty, the monsters rushed in
The whole road can't be completely guarded by such a small number of people!
Garnan shook off the little black blood stained on his sword, and five or six huge and unrivaled war wolves crawled at his side. Their eyes were blood-red and majestic, they were as big as mountains and full of fighting spirit, their hair was blood-stained and terrifying, and this was the most powerful fighting power of the tribe except for the priests.
There was a one-eyed giant wolf looking in the direction of the entrance of the village, and Garnan touched it, which was kind of calming it down: "It's not okay to go on like this, let's find a way to attract the attention of these monsters, and find another chance to destroy them all!"
With that, the five giant wolves rushed to the woodland under the leadership of Garnan, these behemoths several meters high were wrapped around their bodies with wind pressure that was enough to crush the gold and stone, and the place they passed was as devastated as a violent wind, but in the face of the large number of beasts, they also stopped there.
Sure enough, it attracted the attention of a large number of dinosaurs. Those dark and twisted monsters didn't have too high a mind, and this time they took the initiative to rush out and attack humans under the drive of the twisted woodland, so naturally there was no marching discipline. As long as these monsters sensed the aura of the "second son" in other directions, they would immediately be diverted, and the pressure on Roger and them would suddenly be reduced a lot.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yitzhax also gathered enough strength, and he strode into the wilderness, grinning at the stray hordes of dinosaurs.
With the skyrocketing fire, the ground under the feet of Izax instantly melted in the heat, and a wall of demonic fire mixed with green evil fire surged forward in an overwhelming formation, where the wall of fire passed, the rocks turned into molten slurry, the grass and trees instantly sublimated, and the corrosive blood of the dinosaur turned into steam before it could play its role.
Ophra looked at this scene dumbfounded: "...... Are you sure you're just a mercenary?"
"We're experts!" Roger said, brandishing his alloy spear and charging at the last of the dinosaurs.
The interceptions and escorts are going well here, while in other areas, I'm afraid things are not so good.
As a result, the evacuation teams in every direction encountered tremendous resistance, casualties were inevitable, and they were by no means too small.
This evacuation lasted for a day and a night, and Andrea's magic array also forcibly held out for a day and a night, but there was a limit to manpower after all, when the first rays of sunlight appeared on the top of the mountain in the early morning of the next day, the magic arrays in various parts of the Leighton defense line stopped working due to energy depletion, and the tentacles from the ground finally completely gained the upper hand, and villages and towns and outposts were razed to the ground in the blink of an eye.
Now only the largest magic array in Leighton Town is still barely supporting, providing the last bit of safety for the officers and soldiers of the Knights who are stranded behind, so that these soldiers who are already seriously overworked can have a place to breathe, under the purple light curtain that has become thin, there will be no tentacles running out of the ground in the town for the time being, but almost every road outside the town is occupied by tentacles and dinosaurs.
Ofhra and Roger have withdrawn to the town, everyone has not rested for a day and a night, the high-intensity battle makes the legendary hero a little unbearable, Ofrah's heroic close-fitting light armor is stained with a lot of blood, and the cloak is also corroded by the poisonous blood of the dinosaur There are many holes, she stands on a lookout at the entrance of the town, looking at the completely changed earth outside, and breathes a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, most of the people have withdrawn......"
"Ofrah, we have to break through," Elson tilted his head, he was crouching on the ground in his current position, his eyes were directly level with Ofhra standing on the lookout, "all roads are almost blocked, there is only one road left that can barely walk, and it will be too late if you don't go." ”
"Reinforcements from the Kingdom Knights are gathering at the foot of the Dragon's Back Mountains, but they can't rush in, so we can only rush out. ”
Ophora exhaled, watching as the last of the soldiers assembled in the potholed town square. They needed to rest, and that brief respite in the early hours of the morning was completely insufficient, but there really wasn't time for them to rest now.
The whole diocese of Beinz was so devastated that no one who came here could see it as it was: the earth was cracked everywhere, the wilderness was full of bottomless cracks and holes, the remains of huge tentacles covered the avenues and rocky beaches, eighty percent of the strongholds on the defensive line had been reduced to ruins, and watchtowers and watchtowers had either collapsed or been eroded into strange assemblages by the roots of huge plants, which was formidable to look at. Outside of these strongholds, the land is littered with the wreckage of twisted and terrifying dinosaurs, and the blood and poisonous gas have turned these places into forbidden areas for life.
"Prepare to evacuate," Oprah finally ordered, "Elson, you go and inform the Rector of Gerton to prepare to transfer...... No, forget it, you can't get in now, I'll send someone else. ”
At this moment, an unprecedentedly terrifying loud bang suddenly came from the direction of the twisted woodland!
Roger followed the prestige in horror, and saw a scene that he will never forget in this life.
Vivien quickly flew into the air, and an exclamation followed: "Big freeze!!"
