Chapter 465: Response

As the last remaining thirty or forty black beetles flew away in panic, the battle was finally over.

"It's miserable......"

Looking at the shattered defense line that had been destroyed and nearly half of the manpower had been reduced, Shen Cheng's face turned pale.

Although he survived by luck and the defense line was held, he was not happy at all.

After all, this is just the first wave of attacks. Shen Cheng's original plan was to rely on his own strength and carefully constructed defense line, and the professionals of the Kun Gang could resist three or four waves of attacks, to say the least, before they considered retreating calmly.

There is a huge contrast between reality and prediction!

If it weren't for the critical moment, Su Xingfeng of the Rescuers Guild came with two members of the Bronze Group to reinforce him, the Kun Gang's people might have suffered even more losses, and the defense line would never have been spared.

Compared with Shen Cheng, the performance of other professionals in the Kun Gang is even more unbearable. Temporarily safe, they loosened the string that had been tightened to the extreme, and their hearts were suddenly filled with fear and fear again.

The scene of swarms of black beetles swooping down in the air and gnawing people into skeletons was replayed repeatedly in their minds.

There is no shortage of professionals who have friends and companions who have died in battle, and they can't help but cry uncontrollably.

Some people have not even fully recovered their senses, and when they hear the slightest sound, they look left and right, like frightened birds, for fear that the escaped black beetles will come back - even if they are not numerous, they will not be able to make any climate!

Witnessing this scene, Su Xingfeng sighed low and shook his head.

Kun Gang, it's over!

In a few months, the Kun Gang professionals, who have experienced the tragedy, may not want to get out of the shadow of this battle. Even if some brave people can defeat themselves, at least it is impossible to participate in the follow-up battle of this beast tide.

"President Shin, let's take a look! This is the end times! ”

He patted Shen Cheng on the shoulder and whispered a few words of relief to the other party. Seeing that Shen Cheng was still sad for a while, Su Xingfeng shook his head, stepped over the blood-stained snow and the corpse of a black beetle, and gave an order on behalf of Shen Cheng in the name of the envoy of the alliance leader.

All retreat and abandon this line of defense of the Kun Gang!

Although giving up on this side after just one battle would disrupt the original plan and deployment of the Rescuers Guild, Su Xingfeng knew that retreating at this time was actually the best result.

Although there are still more than 200 remaining professionals in the Kun Gang, they no longer have the slightest morale and fighting spirit. Forcibly ordering them to continue fighting will only kill more people worthless in vain.

As a result, there is no longer a need for this line of defense.

At the same time, Su Xingfeng also arranged for two members who were originally stationed here and had personally experienced the battle to rush back to the guild first, and inform the guild of the changes here, especially the sudden black beetle swarm.

No one dared to guarantee that the black-winged seven-star beetle swarm was only a group of the Kun Gang's defense line.

I hope that after the guild gets the reminder, it can prepare early, just in case!

………

"The latest information on the Kun Gang defense line!"

Along with the report submitted by the guild network, an exclamation of disbelief rang out in the temporary command hall of the magic spire.

"The battle damage rate reached 50%, and morale was almost broken...... A swarm of hundreds of black beetles that suddenly appeared? ”

Fang Jin was also shocked, his expression changed slightly, and his eyes were a little more gloomy.

The battle of the second beast tide had just started on a large scale, and there was such bad news, which was undoubtedly a bad start. The black beetle swarm mentioned in the intelligence was an existence that Fang Jin himself had not expected.

Looking at the last mention of the intelligence, the two stationed professionals who participated in the war had rushed back and were ready to be questioned, so he decisively summoned the two.

Soon, two guild members who looked tired and in a bad state of mind walked in briskly.

Seeing Fang Jin's tall figure, the two seemed to have found a belief to support, and their eyes lit up slightly. One of them seemed to finally realize that they had returned to the absolute safety of the guild territory, and let out a long breath.

"President!"

After saluting respectfully, the two of them reported the situation 1510 under Fang Jin's inquiry.

"Blackwing Seven-Star Beetle!"

Fang Jin's brows furrowed, he fell into thought, and his expression was uncertain.

To deal with this kind of group monster with distinct characteristics, the best thing to use is the Silver Rank Mage's Fire Explosion Technique and Tornado. However, at this stage, in the entire Huaguo, I am afraid that there is no second silver rank other than him.

Secondly, there is a good thing in engineering, like ballistas and blade cars, that can be used to defend cities.

That is the [Tower of Mystic] inlaid with top-grade flame crystal nuclei and specialized in spraying a wide range of flames.

This magical version of the "Arrow Tower" has different performances depending on the type of crystal nucleus inlaid and the magic circle depicted, but the three most common types are undoubtedly fire, thunder and lightning, and frost!

All it takes is a LV1 flame-based mystical tower, which is enough to easily kill hundreds of black beetles.

However, the difficulty of building this thing and the resources consumed to maintain it are much higher than those of ballistas and blade throwers. What's more, there are no design drawings for it in the level 1 guild territory. Even if Fang Jin wanted to repair a few at any cost, it would be impossible to do it.

This is called far water does not quench the thirst of the near.

But......

At this stage, the Salvation Guild is not unable to deal with them.

In Fang Jin's memory, among the primary potions in the Alchemy Workshop, there was a kind of fire splash damage that could attach a small area of fire splash damage to arrows. Because the range is really very small, the effect is extremely limited in most cases, and the price is so high that there are no archers willing to use it in weekday leveling.

But against black beetles, which are only the size of a basketball and like to attack in groups of people, the effect of this potion is considerable.

Even a bottle of potion worth 600 gold coins can only bless 10 arrows.

However, the last thing that has been accumulated to the current Savior's Guild is money!

"Tell the alchemy sub-profession to immediately adjust the existing production sequence and make 500 bottles of primary flame sputtering potion first. Rush Order, Highest Priority! ”

With the authority of the guild leader, Fang Jin issued an order and transmitted it to the entire alchemy workshop through the guild network.

Only half a minute later, hundreds of sub-professionals who were busy preparing all kinds of potions responded to the call.

The Salvationists' Guild's vast and efficient war machine quickly added a new chip to the balance of victory.

In addition to the potions, there are two other places where the Rescuer's Guild is different from what happened to the Kun Gang.

Their hard power is strong enough! And there's already a precaution!

The number of level 15 mages of the Kun Gang is too small, only a few. Spells such as chain lightning are difficult to scale, causing most of the attacked black beetle swarms to be injured but not killed.

On the other hand, on the side of the Salvation Guild, there are more than 150 people in the upper bronze rank who have mastered level 15 skills!

With psychological preparation, unless the black beetles really cover the sky, it is difficult for three or five groups of the same size to pose a deadly threat.

What's more, there is Fang Jin himself!

His silver-level skill [Light Flame Strength] is simply perfect against the black beetle.

With a level of 20, he also has a good level coefficient damage bonus against the level 15 black beetle.

With full output, I'm afraid that as long as a few sword lights go down, a large area can be cleared!

If the black beetles really dared to come, Fang Jin would definitely not mind sending them to hell with his own hands to avenge the more than 200 professionals killed and injured by the Kun Gang!
