The sunset is like blood.

After a series of battles from the afternoon to the evening, the war on the second outer line of defense of the Yanjing base finally ended with the temporary retreat of the Fallen Star Sect.

The defensive line, which was originally comparable to a permanent fortification, has also been completely destroyed. Cracked corpses, ruined walls reinforced by magic but still destroyed, and wasteland that has been bombed and filled in several times.

As for the undead who were detonated by the Book of Natural Disasters, under the sniping of 20,000 professionals in the Yanjing base, they were finally killed again and completely fell into an eternal sleep. And in order to solve the big trouble caused by this bloodless soldier of the Fallen Star Sect, there are more than ten long pages on the list of the war dead in the Yanjing base!

After all, the threat comes not only from the resurgent undead, but also from the Fallen Star Cult's occasional ranged strikes and assassin assassination harassment.

After personally observing the battle and assessing the tragic situation of the battle, the senior management of the Yanjing base made the decision to abandon the broken outer defense line on their own initiative.

Just wait for night to fall, try to arrange a little more hands and feet, and withdraw to the last main line of defense overnight.

Because of the huge sacrifices paid and the blow of the Sea of the Undead, although the enemy attack was temporarily thwarted, the morale of the professionals on the defense line was generally a little low. Fortunately, the final result of the Golden Rank battle on the south side of the defense line was not satisfactory, and it brought rare good news to every professional.

——The fourteen fallen star priests who were surrounded have always struggled to break through after killing two of them in just over ten seconds. Under the leadership of Fang Jin, the Golden Rank of the Human Fang soared and killed the two again.

Until the remaining twelve priests, waiting for the priests who retreated on the northern front, answered!

Seeing that the situation began to reverse, and the strength of the fallen star masters who were about to converge had risen sharply, and they were about to fight back, Fang Jin knew that this was already the best result they could achieve.

In line with the principle of accepting what is good, Fang Jin led the team to completely destroy the corpses of the four fallen star priests who died in battle, and fought and retreated surrounded by a large number of silver-level professionals.

At this time, Archbishop Dewey also held the Solidar Bow and appeared for the first time on the defense line of the Yanjing base.

The combination of a diamond-level powerhouse + an eighth-order artifact, even if the power of the divine bow was activated in the air, it immediately shocked the golden rank of twenty-two people after the convergence, who were angry because of the death of four companions in a row.

Although the two archbishops on the side of the Fallen Star Sect also immediately echoed each other from afar and joined forces to send out a shock, the time that Dewey gave them was enough to smoothly distance themselves.

If the twenty-two priests of the fallen star dare to chase after them again, they will inevitably go deep into the core hinterland of the Yanjing base, and the risk will increase dramatically!

Probably aware of this, or because of the fear that the sky was about to darken, or maybe there were other considerations, in the end, these twenty-two golden orders were recalled by the two archbishops reluctantly.

And with their respective withdrawals, the first day of the battlefield was completely calm.

Whether it was the Fallen Star Sect or the Yanjing base, they all used this night to lick their wounds, summarize their lessons, and accumulate strength to prepare for the next day's battle.

………

"Today, in one day, all of us combined, almost nearly 8,000 professionals were killed in battle!"

Soon after nightfall, the latest statistics were quickly delivered to the top leaders of the Yanjing base and the leaders of the major super forces.

Although there must be a lot of omissions or double calculations in a hurry, the general magnitude should still be credible.

How to say this number, it can be regarded as stuck in a more subtle place.

After all, according to previous discussions, the worst-case scenario and floor they could accept was 10,000 dead on the first day.

But even if it is not reached, the loss is undoubtedly quite close to this tolerance limit.

The senior leaders who participated in the meeting again had mixed expressions. Some look optimistic, while others frown and worry.

For the high-level who are optimistic, there are nearly 50,000 bronze steps in the Yanjing base city, and in just one day today, there are no less than 3,000 new reinforcements. Although the strength of the newcomer is inferior, it is also three thousand bronze ranks and no less than two hundred silver ranks.

When converted, it can be seen as a decrease of only 5,000 people.

If this momentum continues, if it is not at any cost, regardless of the morale of the professionals and the psychological tolerance for sacrifice, there will be no problem in sustaining it for a week.

But it was clearly impossible for the Fallen Star Sect to sustain an offensive of this magnitude for that long.

Although their losses are far less than those of Chinese professionals, there is also a roughly 1:2 to 1:3 exchange ratio. According to preliminary estimates, the losses will not be less than three thousand.

If you continue to fight like this, in the worst case, both sides will only lose both.

But the problem is that the Fallen Star Sect has only two large dioceses in the whole of China, and so far it has not developed human believers. This means that the number of Fallen Star Believers they brought with them from Twilight is fixed, and one less will die for one.

If they really run out of strength, the major forces will still have enough reserve members. Otherwise, in a year or two, the Chinese professional circle will still be able to prosper.

But at that time, the fifth and sixth dioceses really didn't know where they were.

As for the Fallen Star Archdiocese in the rest of the world...... They are too far away from Huaguo, and after dealing with the situation in their own area, they want to rush here to find out the situation and meddle in reinforcements, I don't know how long it will take!

Not to mention, in addition to this barely acceptable exchange ratio, four Fallen Star Priests were also killed today!

Although this is at the cost of twenty bottles of Overlord Elixir, plus six high-ranking silver rank deaths, fourteen spontaneous combustion to gray iron level, and even directly becoming waste, this sacrifice still cannot hide the great significance of victory.

Even if it can be replicated again, the Fallen Star Sect will completely lose its advantage, and the tide of the battle will completely turn to the side of the human race.

Of course, there are optimistic and pessimistic.

The loss of nearly 8,000 people is really not small. Today is the first day of the Great War, and the fate of mankind is at stake, and the forces of all sides are embarrassed to leave their hands as soon as they come up, so there is such unity and sacrifice. But if it comes back for a few more days, will the Chinese professional coalition still be able to maintain the casualty bearing capacity of today?

Don't say too much, if there is another loss of the same magnitude tomorrow, I am afraid that there will be forces to shake.

From this point of view, after today's day's Yanjing defense line, it is still unknown whether it can survive to the end.

However, while these two factions, who were either optimistic or pessimistic, were arguing about the deployment and response for the next day, Fang Jin, who was sitting at the top, was thinking about a more radical issue that could frighten them if he spoke out.

What to do after defeating the Fallen Star Sect!

To be precise, what should humanity do after defeating the Fallen Star Sect's army this time, but not missing a single one of them?
