The sun sets and the moon rises, and the night is getting darker, and it is a cloudy night, covered by dark clouds, and the moon is dark and the wind is high.

Although Duan Chen was meditating behind the wall and pranayama to recuperate, he was worried about the beast tide in his heart, and his mind was really difficult to calm down, and he could hear the sound of footsteps moving in his ears, and several groups of people walked up to the rune stone wall in a row, which made people feel more and more uneasy.

Duan Chen didn't feel a little upset in his heart, so he simply opened his eyes and saw that under the nearby rune stone wall, there seemed to be hundreds of martial artists armed with various weapons, as well as dozens of qi refining cultivators, many of whom had been recruited from neighboring villages.

At this time, Xu Chu, the leader of the Tiandu Town Guard, was standing under the rune stone wall not far away, commanding everyone to move a piece of boulder and an unopened oil tank onto the rune stone wall.

Duan Chen's eyes followed, and he saw that on the rune stone wall, there were already hundreds of archers and talismans with bows and crossbows scattered at this moment, and Zhou Changgong and Nangong Yu were also among them.

At this time, the three of Chenyang also woke up from meditation and pranayama.

I only heard Chenyang speak: "The three of you have listened carefully, this time the beast tide is coming, we are mainly responsible for guarding the northern defense line of the city, and listen to Xu Chu's order, if there is no Xu Chu's order, no one can leave the north of the city without permission, and those who violate it will be killed." ”

After a slight pause, his gaze turned to Duan Chen, and continued: "Xiao Chen, at the moment, among the six members of our Desolate God Hunting Team, you are the strongest, but there is one thing, Uncle Chen wants to remind you in particular." ”

Duan Chen said, "What's the matter?"

Chenyang said in a deep voice: "Be cautious, once you are targeted by the high-level desolate beasts that attack tonight, with the wisdom of the high-level desolate beasts, you will definitely choose to sneak attack secretly, just like the six-rank desolate beast Silver Moon War Wolf that day attacked you, and even attacked it in groups." ”

Duan Chen nodded and said, "I wrote this down." ”

Chenyang continued: "Remember, when manpower is poor, no matter how powerful a monk is, it is impossible to fight forever, there is always a time when you are tired, when you retreat, you will retreat, don't rush wildly." ”

Duan Chen nodded again and again, and was about to speak, when he heard the roar of ten thousand beasts outside the stone wall, one after another, setting off heavy waves of sound, rolling towards Tiandu Town from all directions.

Duan Chen and the others had been trained in the wilderness, and when they first heard the roar of this tidal beast, they didn't feel anything, but the other warriors and townspeople in the town who had never entered the wilderness were panicked for a while, and their strength seemed to be drained, and they were a little unable to use their strength.

Duan Chen saw the panic and fear on the faces of many people, and couldn't help but sigh for it: "This high-level desolate beast is really extraordinary, and it actually knows how to use such a preemptive method. ”

Nangong Jin continued: "Look at the general, this army of desolate beasts is preparing to attack. ”

Duan Chen's heart couldn't help but tighten, and said, "In this way, Master Li Zheng's first plan is about to start. ”

Chenyang had already gotten up at this time and said, "We should also prepare to go up, as I expected, this first strategy may be able to kill a large number of desolate beasts, but it is difficult to retreat from the enemy, we still have to fight with the army of desolate beasts after all." ”

After Chenyang said this, Duan Chen, Nangong Jin and Xiong Zhan also sat up from the ground one after another.

The four of them were about to climb the rune stone wall, when they suddenly heard the sound of war drums beating from the town square, the drums sounded from slow to urgent, covering one after another, as if there were hundreds of people beating war drums at the same time, and it was indistinguishable from the roar of the wild beasts coming from outside the town.

And there seemed to be a calming force in the drum, and the warriors and townspeople who were still a little flustered heard the drums beating, and one by one they regained their strength, and under the command of all parties, they climbed the rune stone wall in an orderly manner.

At this time, I only heard Xu Chu's loud shouts coming from the rune stone wall: "Be careful, the army of desolate beasts has begun to attack the town." ”

The sound spread, and the entire northern defense line of the town suddenly stirred, and all the warriors and qi refining cultivators standing on the rune stone wall were alerted, and immediately began to prepare, either lifting the boulders piled aside, or holding oil cans, or bending bows and arrows, or taking out a large number of rune papers from their arms, and waiting for them one by one, just waiting for Xu Chu's order, they would start the strategy of a hundred flowers blooming.

At this time, Duan Chen had already followed Chenyang and the others up the rune stone wall, and was assigned by Xu Chu to a defense line hundreds of zhang long, and was guarded with more than a dozen other warriors.

The group used the spirit eye technique, or looked out of the wall with the help of the spirit eye charm, and saw that in the dark night, a large area of dense low-level desolate beasts was surging like a tide, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive, making people feel cold sweat in their palms.

At this time, I only heard Chenyang say in a low voice: "Sure enough, as Lord Li Zheng expected, in this first wave of defensive line offensive and defensive battles, those high-level desolate beasts had no intention of participating in it at all, and they only sent low-level desolate beasts to test the consumption, which was really cunning." ”

Duan Chen couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said, "Uncle Chen, does this high-level desolate beast really have such wisdom?" I always feel that there seems to be something strange behind this beast tide, but when I think about it carefully, I don't know what's wrong. ”

Chenyang knew that Duan Chen was still worried about the root cause behind the sudden outbreak of the beast tide, so he couldn't help patting him on the shoulder and said, "As the so-called soldiers come to block, water comes to cover the earth, no matter what secrets are behind this beast tide, the only thing we can do at present is to hold the northern defense line of this town and not let any wild beast kill in." ”

Duan Chen also knew that his current state of mind was constantly interrupted, which would greatly affect the next battle of offensive and defensive defense, so he couldn't help but nod and said, "Uncle Chen, I understand how to do it." ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone heard the sound of arrows roaring in their ears, but it was the archer standing on the stone wall, seeing that the army of desolate beasts was getting closer and closer to the town, and had already begun to attack.

I saw that the arrows with spirit talismans attached to the tail of the arrows were swift and rapid, and they shot into the group of low-level desolate beasts several miles away from the defense line of the north of the town, and shot more than 100 low-level desolate beasts in the field in a breath. Following the spirit rune that was clinging to the end of the arrow's tail, it suddenly burst open in a burst of spiritual light, turning into balls of flame light, engulfing the nearby low-level desolate beasts.

Seeing this, Duan Chen couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect this arrow to be so powerful when paired with a spirit rune, and in a snap of a finger, thousands of low-level desolate beasts were wiped out. ”

However, before his words fell, he saw that in the night, the dense low-level desolate beasts were still surging forward, and it seemed that the thousands of low-level desolate beasts that had just died were not worth mentioning for an army of desolate beasts of this size.

This immediately made Duan Chen comprehend the terrifying thing about this low-level beast tide, and secretly thought in his heart: "This low-level beast tide is still so terrifying, I don't know how terrifying that middle-level beast tide and high-level beast tide should be." ”

In the flash of his mind, there was a roar of arrows in his ears, but it was the archers on the wall who shot several waves of arrow rain in a row, each wave of arrow rain could shoot thousands of low-level desolate beasts, and so on for several consecutive waves, the army of desolate beasts immediately lost nearly 10,000 low-level desolate beasts.

However, everyone stood on the rune stone wall and looked down, but seeing the marching pace of the desolate beast army, they were not affected by this casualty in the slightest, and all the low-level desolate beasts also ignored the death of their companions next to them, and rushed towards the rune stone wall with a crazy roar.

Nangong Jin couldn't help but exclaim: "Are these low-level desolate beasts crazy?"

No one answered his question, and even Chenyang was the first time he had experienced a beast tide attacking the town, and it was the first time he had seen such a tragic purgatory-like scene.

Seeing that the army of desolate beasts had rushed to less than half a mile outside the wall despite the continuous rain of arrows on the rune stone wall, regardless of casualties, Nangong Yu and other qi refining rune masters finally sacrificed the spirit rune in their hands and launched another wave of offensive under Xu Chu's order.

In an instant, hundreds of spirit runes flew out and fell into the group of low-level beasts below, but when they heard a mournful sound, the fire flashed, and there was a loud earthquake, and thousands of low-level desolate beasts were wiped out on the spot.

At this time, the warriors on the stone wall who were holding oil cans and boulders in their arms, cooperating with the attack of Nangong Yu and other talismans and Zhou Changgong and other archers, also began to throw huge stones under the wall, dumping tung oil, and smashing and burning many wild beasts that tried to climb onto the rune stone wall.

It was always difficult for the army of desolate beasts to cross the defense line north of the town by half a step.

When everyone on the stone wall saw this, they all clapped their hands and made friends, and they were happy.

At this time, I suddenly heard Chenyang say in a deep voice: "Prepare, the second strategy to resist the beast will start soon." ”

Everyone on the wall was shocked when they heard this, Duan Chen was also a little surprised by this, and then he found that the surrounding arrow rain and spirit rune attack suddenly became much smaller, and then he woke up, and before he knew it, all the arrows and spirit runes had been almost consumed

The high-level desolate beasts standing in the dark night in the distance also seemed to notice this change, and they roared incessantly, as if they were driving the mid-level desolate beasts behind them to join the army of desolate beasts attacking the rune stone wall.

At this time, I only heard a sharp-eyed archer on the wall exclaim: "It's not good, that army of desolate beasts plans to use the corpses of low-level desolate beasts that died in time to pave a corpse path to the rune stone wall." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they all raised their eyes to look down, and they saw a large number of low-level desolate beasts, driven by those mid- and high-level desolate beasts, quickly dragging the corpses of the dead desolate beasts to the rune stone wall and piling them up.

Xu Chu, who was in charge of commanding the entire defense line in the north of the town, was taken aback on the spot when he saw this, and shouted: "Quick, hurry up and try to destroy the corpses of these wild beasts." ”

Before his words fell, in an instant, the mutation was reborn.

I saw that hundreds of middle-level desolate beasts suddenly rushed out of the army of desolate beasts, and orthodox led a large number of wolves and lions and tigers desolate beasts to leap up the rune stone wall, with the help of sharp claw blades, walking on the rune stone wall like flying, like walking on the ground and rushing upward.

At this time, the spirit runes and arrows in the hands of Nangong Yu, Zhou Changgong and others were almost exhausted, so that the first of the four strategies to resist the beast was full of flowers, and it was no longer possible to cause more casualties to the army of desolate beasts.

So, under Xu Chu's order, Nangong Yu and Zhou Changgong and other talisman archers began to retreat behind the wall to cultivate, while Duan Chen, Chenyang and other Qi refiners who had not yet made a move, joined forces with hundreds of other martial artists and began to connect with those middle-level desolate beasts who rushed onto the stone wall.
