Chapter 63: Even fiercer than a Magical Cannon!

Zhang Chiming's heart suddenly tightened.

The intelligence of these exotic beasts seemed to exceed his expectations.

They actually knew how to attack the weak points of the defense Formation and launch a surprise attack from underground.

They also knew to prioritize destroying the Magical Cannons that posed the greatest threat to them.

Behind all this, it seemed as if an invisible black hand was manipulating everything.

"Damn it!" He roared, his long sword leaving its sheath as he personally severed a vine lashing toward a soldier.

"All squads, prioritize clearing the vines! Rescue the Magical Cannons!"

Atop the city wall, chaos instantly erupted.

Chairman Sun, standing to the side, still stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes calm like an ancient, waveless well.

He glanced at the wildly spreading dark green vines, his steady voice ringing out.

"That BOSS capable of manipulating plants must still be hiding within the beast horde."

"These vines are merely its extension; treating the symptoms doesn't root out the cause."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the powerhouses of the major guilds behind him, and though his voice wasn't loud, it spread across the entire city wall.

"If we want to defend Donghai City, we must first drag it out and slaughter it."

"Who is willing to leave the city?"

As soon as his voice fell,

"Azure Wolf Guild is willing to go!"

"Count me, Iron Fist, in!"

"We, the Gale Mercenary Group, will go!"

Dozens of figures stood out without a moment of hesitation.

They were the top Professionals of Donghai City, the guardians of this city.

Without the slightest hesitation, various colored lights lit up on their bodies, and like dumplings dropped into a pot, they bravely and fearlessly leapt down from the tens-of-meters-high city wall.

The light barrier rippled as they passed through it.

Like sharp daggers, they fiercely stabbed into that black torrent of the beast horde.

"Kill!"

The leading Berserker roared, his giant axe sweeping horizontally and instantly cutting several exotic beasts into two.

At the start, they could still rely on their formidable personal strength to slaughter in all directions.

But the number of exotic beasts was simply too vast.

Soon, some Professionals were submerged by the beast horde, not even having time to let out a scream.

Yet, the remaining people did not have a shred of cowardice in their eyes.

Roaring and bellowing, they swung their weapons frantically, advancing with difficulty through the endless beast horde to find the enemy hidden in the shadows.

Their home was right behind them.

There was nowhere left to retreat.

Watching this scene, Chairman Sun's eyes remained calm as he turned to Zhang Chiming beside him.

"Commander Zhang, immediately mobilize all reserve forces within the city for reinforcement."

"The Magical Cannons have jammed, so today's battle will be even more difficult than imagined."

"Prepare to fight for a day and a night."

Zhang Chiming nodded heavily with a solemn expression, immediately starting to coordinate the city's troops via communicator.

…

Meanwhile, on the flank of the battlefield.

Seeing that the main force of the beast horde had fully engaged with the city wall, Zhou Huai watched as the attention of those terrifying BOSSes finally shifted away from him.

The opportunity had come.

He immediately controlled Yasuo and Gandalf, pulling out several bottles of Advanced magical recovery potions from the space ring and gulping them down like water.

Afterwards, Yasuo carried Gandalf on his back, his figure transforming into a flash of lightning as he swiftly circled to the flank of the beast horde army.

This was the blind spot of the city-defending firepower.

Yet it was Gandalf's best stage.

Gandalf raised his staff high, chanting the ancient and obscure incantation once again.

The space above his head was torn apart, and a portal burning with eerie green flames burst wide open.

"[Forbidden Spell: Meteor Fire Rain!]"

Five huge meteorites entwined with the Soul-Devouring Nether Flame whistled down, smashing fiercely into the densest part of the beast horde.

Boom—!

The green flames spread out like a plague.

Countless exotic beasts were instantly torn apart by the shockwave, only to be ignited a second later by the Soul-burning flames, turning into twisted pieces of charcoal.

Screams of agony resounded through the night sky, but were quickly drowned out by the subsequent explosions.

[Killed Shadow Leopard LV17, gained 310 experience points!]

[Killed Berserk Demon Ape LV18, gained 350 experience points!]

…

[Quest Progress: 1051 / 10000]

"This is just the beginning."

Zhou Huai's heart burned with enthusiasm.

And this heaven-destroying and earth-shattering scene instantly stunned everyone on the city wall.

Zhang Chiming, who was directing the battle, suddenly stiffened his movements, looking in astonishment at that towering green flame rising in the distance.

"Th—that is what?"

"Someone is releasing a skill on the flank of the beast horde?"

"Are you kidding me! What kind of skill can have such a terrifying range?"

Chairman Sun's pupils also contracted slightly at this moment, a look of surprise appearing on his face for the first time.

Before they could recover from the shock,

an abnormality occurred once again.

Seeing that area covered by the green flames, an extreme chill suddenly spread out.

"[Forbidden Spell: Thousand Mile Ice Seal]!"

Crack! Crack!

Large swathes of exotic beasts, along with the flames burning on the ground, were instantly frozen into crystal-clear ice sculptures.

One fire and one ice, one hot and one cold.

Nearly a thousand exotic beasts completely vanished from the battlefield in just a dozen seconds.

Such an exaggerated display shocked not only the people on the city wall,

but also the few BOSSes attacking the city within the beast horde, who were enraged once more.

They abandoned attacking the defensive light barrier, let out roars of anger, and their huge bodies suddenly turned, charging toward the direction of Yasuo and Gandalf.

In the sky, the Sky Storm Falcon fiercely battling the Silver Dragon let out an even sharper cry, its twin wings vibrating as it tried to shake off Li Qiu's entangling.

"Hey hey hey, don't get distracted."

Li Qiu controlled the Silver Dragon, a wild smile spreading across the corner of his mouth.

"Didn't I say? Your opponent is me!"

"Roar—!"

The Silver Dragon let out a roar, a mouthful of scorching platinum Dragon Breath spraying fiercely onto the flank of the Sky Storm Falcon.

The latter let out a painful cry, its massive body stumbling in mid-air as a large patch of its feathers was scorched.

Meanwhile, atop the high wall, Chairman Sun's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he made a decisive judgment.

"Hei Ming! Peng Cang!"

"You two go down as well!"

"At all costs, entangle those ground BOSSes!"

"Be sure to protect those two people down below!"

"Yes!"

Two figures acknowledged the order and stepped out, similarly leaping down from the city wall with a bound.

At this moment, Yasuo was carrying Gandalf on his back, frantically fleeing across the wilderness.

Behind him, two Level 40 BOSSes the size of small hills were taking heavy strides, pursuing relentlessly.

The earth trembled beneath their feet.

"The City Guards are too useless!"

Zhou Huai mentally complained wildly.

"Can't even attract their aggro with this?"

Just as he thought he would have to repeat the same trick and stage another life-or-death speed run,

two figures, like ghosts, appeared on his left and right ahead of him.

They instantly turned around, blocking the path of the two sprinting giant beasts.

One person held a giant shield, their figure as burly and imposing as a mountain.

The other held dual daggers, their figure drifting and erratic.

A trace of surprise surfaced on Zhou Huai's face.

Only to hear that shield warrior shout in a deep voice without turning back, "You guys go quickly! Leave this place to us!"

Before the words finished, he and the other assassin proactively charged toward the two terrifying BOSSes.

The battle erupted instantly.

Zhou Huai instantly understood.

The people on the city wall had seen Gandalf's strength.

They had specifically sent people down to act as his bodyguards and create an output environment for him.

"They aren't too stupid either."

He chuckled softly in his heart.

Without the interference of the BOSSes, Yasuo carried Gandalf on his back and turned around again, slaughtering his way back to the battlefield.

Next was Gandalf's one-man show time.

"[Forbidden Spell: Meteor Fire Rain]!"

"[Forbidden Spell: Thousand Mile Ice Seal]!"

"[Forbidden Spell: Geocentric Gravity Field]!"

Three heaven-destroying and earth-shattering forbidden spells were used by him in turns.

The entire flank of the beast horde completely transformed into a forbidden zone of death.

At times bombarded by meteors, at times frozen for thousands of miles, and at times pinned firmly to the ground by terrifying gravity, unable to move at all.

Those Professionals who were struggling to hold on in the beast horde and searching for the vine BOSS suddenly felt their pressure sharply decrease.

Atop the city wall, Zhang Chiming's mouth had already dropped open in shock, unable to close for a long time.

Pointing at the area in the distance completely submerged by magical light, his voice was trembling.

"Th—this f*cking… what kind of profession is this anyway?"

"One person suppressed nearly half of the beast horde?"

He muttered to himself, his eyes filled with shock.

"This isn't even human…"

"This is clearly a mobile Magical Cannon! No! It's even fiercer than a Magical Cannon!"
