Chapter 21: The Tide of Beasts I
Lin Yun was slightly stunned, and before he could react, he saw a sudden commotion in front of him, and the originally open city gate was rapidly closing at this time.
At the same time, the ground began to tremble, and a dull roar suddenly came from behind, which was terrifying.
"It's the roar of the monster......"
Lin Yun often went to Nanyun City to practice, and instantly heard the source of these sounds.
He turned his head to look back, and saw that in the mountains and forests outside the official road, a large number of demon beasts suddenly emerged, layer upon layer, and there was no end in sight.
The tremor of the ground was caused by these demon beasts running wildly.
There are also some demon beasts flying in the air, and they are flying towards Tianfeng City, and the black pressure is overwhelming.
"Beast tide?!"
Seeing this scene, Lin Yun's complexion changed suddenly, and without thinking about it, he directly used his body to run towards the city gate.
"Beast tide!"
"It's a beast tide!"
At this time, not only Lin Yun did this, but all the people who saw the beast tide all changed their faces drastically, and they ran towards the city gate in horror.
However, they were far from the gates, and they closed them so suddenly and quickly that they were half-closed almost as soon as they set out to run towards them.
Lin Yun tried his best to exert his skills, but he still didn't catch up, and he was still more than a hundred meters away from the city gate, so he could only watch the majestic city gate completely close with a dull sound!
At this time, the beast tide had swept in at great speed, and in the blink of an eye, it engulfed those people at the back.
"Ah......h
"Help......
"No ......"
"I don't want to die ......"
Suddenly, a scream rang out.
However, the screams lasted less than a breath before they disappeared completely, leaving everyone pale.
Lin Yun's pupils shrank sharply, and his complexion was a little unsightly.
Because among the group of people just now, there were still a few Innate Realm martial artists, who didn't even make a little wave, and they were trampled into meat by the beast tide in an instant!
In the face of the beast tide, the innate realm martial artists were so vulnerable!
"Run!"
"Quick, leave those goods alone, come and protect me!"
"Help! Who's going to save me! ”
"This damn beast tide, I'll fight with you!"
“……”
Frightened, angry, screaming, desperate......
"Quick! Gather together and protect Miss! ”
Next to a delicate carriage, more than two dozen guards quickly gathered around the carriage amid the panicked shouts of a middle-aged man, holding the weapons in their hands, and looking at the beast tide behind them in horror.
There was a woman sitting in the carriage, who was also pale at this time, and her pretty face was pale.
In the face of the tide of beasts, whether it is a peddler or a pawn, a servant, or a lady, no one can be indifferent.
Lin Yun was no exception, his face was extremely solemn, looking at the beast tide that swept at the extreme speed, he clenched the long knife in his hand tightly.
At this time, the city gate has been closed, the back road has been broken, and in the face of the beast tide, only desperate resistance can there be a glimmer of life!
"Roaring ......"
A fierce roar sounded, and it was extremely piercing.
Because the leading beast tide had already been killed here, a large number of demon beasts rushed wildly, instantly submerging the figure of Lin Yun's group.
"Ah......h
In the blink of an eye, a large scream rang out.
"Moo!"
After a red-eyed ironclad bull smashed a boulder, it crashed directly into Lin Yun.
The aura of his body was extremely violent, and he was not weaker than the innate realm martial artists.
A cold light flashed in Lin Yun's eyes, his body was slightly to the side, and then the long knife in his hand slammed up!
Burst!
The head of the ironclad bull flew out directly, and its body continued to run wildly for more than ten meters under inertia before it fell to the ground with a bang, blood gushing out, staining the ground red.
Lin Yun didn't have time to care about these at all, after cutting off the head of the iron-armored bull, two demon beasts rushed towards him in an instant, with sharp claws and cold, and his breath was even stronger than the iron-armored bull.
Lin Yun dodged the attack of one of them, and slashed the other one with a backhand, and before he could catch his breath, four more demon beasts pounced on him.
This is the horror of the beast tide!
Even if some people are very strong, once they are surrounded by demon beasts, they will still die!
Lin Yun's eyes were cold, and he instantly slashed out three knives, splitting three of them into the air, and was about to dodge the attack of the fourth demon beast, when the light on the demon beast's body flashed, and its speed suddenly skyrocketed, and it directly hit Lin Yun.
"Poof......
Lin Yun directly spurted a mouthful of blood, and his body was knocked forward several steps in a row.
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, forcibly stabilized his body, and then slashed with a backhand, slashing the demon beast that pounced again.
As blood gushed out, Lin Yun quickly retracted his sword and defended himself, blocking the claws of a demon beast.
However, after the delay just now, several more demon beasts pounced towards the side.
In addition, the demon beasts that were slashed away by him before also took advantage of the situation to attack.
In the blink of an eye, seven demon beasts attacked Lin Yun.
Lin Yun's gaze was extremely solemn.
The strength of these demon beasts is not weak, comparable to the three or four levels of the innate realm, and some are even like the previous demon beasts that can only increase their speed, they have innate abilities, once they don't deal with it well, they are very likely to hit him hard or even kill him!
Lin Yun took a deep breath, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and he was about to make a move, when several arm-thick iron arrows suddenly broke through the air, directly piercing several of the demon beasts.
Lin Yun was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look in the direction where the iron arrow was fired, and it was actually the defenders on the city wall.
"The archers are covering, the javelinmen are back, the giant crossbow is in the right direction, aiming at those innate realm demon beasts, and these beasts must not be allowed to enter the city."
A middle-aged man in black armor snorted coldly, this person was the commander of the city guards.
As the order was given, an overwhelming volley of arrows shot out, and heavy javelins were also thrown, piercing through the powerful demon beasts, and the giant crossbow was constantly adjusting its position, shooting out arm-thick iron arrows, piercing through the innate realm demon beasts.
For a moment, the forward momentum of the beast tide was quickly disintegrated!
Lin Yun took this opportunity to slash the two demon beasts with two swords, and then slashed a few demon beasts that rushed towards him, his body flashed, and he directly rushed out of the encirclement of these demon beasts.
At this time, in the first round of onslaught of the beast tide, not one out of ten people outside the city survived.
There were more than twenty guards around the delicate carriage, but most of them were dead or wounded, and only seven or eight guards were still struggling to resist.
In the carriage, the woman was pale, her eyes were flustered, and she was clearly frightened.
Suddenly, when those guards were resisting the attack of the surrounding demon beasts, a flying demon beast suddenly approached and directly grabbed the carriage.
"Ah......h
The carriage shook violently, and the woman screamed and fell straight out of the carriage and rolled to the ground.
An ironclad bull was nearby, looking at the woman with scarlet eyes, and its iron hooves were stepping directly towards her chest.
"No!"
"Miss!"
The guards roared, their eyes split.
However, at this time, they were besieged by demon beasts, and they couldn't get out at all!
The woman's face turned pale and her eyes showed despair.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her, raised his hand, and directly punched the ironclad bull away, making everyone stunned.
The person who came was Lin Yun.
After blasting away the ironclad bull with one punch, Lin Yun picked up the woman on the ground, and then slashed away a demon beast that was blocking the way, quickly rushed to the side of the guards, and shouted, "You guys block the side, no problem, right?" ”
Those guards hadn't recovered from the upheaval just now, but the middle-aged guard in the lead reacted and hurriedly said, "No problem! Thank you little brother for rescuing our young lady! ”
When Lin Yun heard this, he directly put down the woman in his arms, "She will be handed over to you!" ”
After speaking, Lin Yun turned around and rushed out directly, slashing the incoming demon beasts with a single sword, and then swung his knife again, splitting all the demon beasts that came forward one by one.
"Quick, close the formation, defend the other side!"
Seeing this, the middle-aged guard hurriedly shouted.
Those guards finally reacted, and after hearing this, they hurriedly protected the woman in the middle, and then blocked the demon beast attacking from the other side.
At this time, the woman came back to her senses from the shadow of death, and after understanding what had just happened, her pretty face turned pale and she was afraid for a while.
Immediately, she looked at Lin Yun, who was fighting fiercely against the demon beast, and her eyes were full of gratitude.
If Lin Yun hadn't rescued her just now, she would definitely have died under the iron hooves of the ironclad bull!
After Lin Yun slashed back these demon beasts again, he turned his head to look behind.
At this time, those guards, under the leadership of the leading middle-aged guards, contracted their formations and held the other side to the death, driving back all the attacking demon beasts.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
His purpose in saving the woman was to cooperate with these people.
His strength is indeed very strong, none of these demon beasts are his opponents when they fight alone, but two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, once they are besieged by demon beasts, even if they are him, they are easy to be hit hard, and even fall!
And now, he only needs to defend this side, and with those people on the other side, he doesn't have to worry about a demon beast sneaking up on him from behind!
Shout! Shout! Shout! ……
The iron arrows shot by the giant crossbow with a piercing roar pierced the air, nailing one Innate Realm demon beast after another to the ground, stopping the advance of the beast tide.
However, the scale of this beast tide is very large, and the number of innate realm demon beasts is extremely large, which is also mixed with some demon beasts of more than five or six levels of the congenital realm, and there are even several Yuan Dan realm demon beasts.
These demon beasts are so powerful that the iron arrows shot by the giant crossbow can't threaten them at all!
Burst!
After Lin Yun slashed a demon beast again, he was about to retreat to the rear for a little respite, when a sense of crisis suddenly hit, he didn't even think about it, and turned around with a knife.
Rumble!
The long knife struck the demon beast, but it did not knock it back, but a terrifying backlash came, causing Lin Yun to kick back three or four steps in a row.
Lin Yun's eyes showed a look of surprise, although his sword was not full strength, it was enough to repel the Innate Fivefold Realm, but he didn't expect to be defeated by this demon beast.
The demon beast that was slashed by Lin Yun's long knife was a black bear that was a height of a few feet, and its aura was extremely violent, which was comparable to the innate sixfold.
Next to it, there was also a black panther and a green wolf, whose aura was no weaker than it.
This is actually a three-headed innate six-fold demon beast!
At the same time, the angry shouts of those guards were also heard from behind, and they were also besieged by several powerful demon beasts.
For a while, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
Roar!
At this time, the black bear's thick bear paw the size of a fan was bleeding, and Lin Yun's knife almost cut off its bear paw, and the severe pain made its eyes even more fierce, and it roared and rushed towards Lin Yun.
The black panther and the green wolf also roared and pounced.
Lin Yun took a deep breath and clenched the long knife in his hand tightly.
