I asked you to practice physical skills, not to open the Eight Gates!

Chapter 76, The war breaks out!

There are more and more monsters outside the City of Dusk, and through the overlapping dense forests, you can see pairs of bloodthirsty animal eyes.

The gazes of these animal eyes were all fixed on the tall city wall ahead.

The war was imminent, and the tense atmosphere made both sides feel a little nervous.

"Since they took the initiative to declare war, they must have been well prepared. Instead of waiting passively, wouldn't it be better for us to take the initiative and disrupt their plans?" Li Yang wondered.

"Taking the initiative to attack can indeed disrupt their plans, but Dusk City is our greatest defense. If we take the initiative to leave Dusk City and enter the Endless Forest to fight, it will be very disadvantageous to us." Wang Mingfeng said.

"So, even if we know that the other party is well prepared, we can only deal with it passively."

"In this kind of war, we can be at a small disadvantage, but we must never make big mistakes, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Li Yang is in a different position, so he doesn’t quite understand what they are thinking.

If he had made the decision himself, he would have rushed in by now.

Taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness is also a tactic.

However, Li Yang is just a soldier now, not a general, so he cannot make the decision.

……

[Ding! Trigger mission: Resist the beast tide]

[Task Reward: 50 Energy Points]

"Five hundred thousand energy points... this task is a bit difficult."

This is the most generous reward ever.

But the richer the mission reward, the more difficult the mission is. This is an eternal truth.

"Do it."

Li Yang has no right to complain now.

After all, even if he didn't want to do this kind of work, he couldn't escape.

……

boom--!
The long silence was finally broken by a loud noise.

Suddenly, hundreds of energy shells were fired from the dense forest and quickly shot towards the City of Dusk!
"coming!"

Rumble!
A translucent barrier was deployed above the City of Dusk, intercepting all energy shells.

"Roar!!!"

The beasts below also began to rush up, densely packed and as surging as a tide.

On the city wall, the muzzles of the charged cannons were pointed at the tide of beasts below.

"fire!"

Following an order, all the charged cannons fired at the same time, turning into streams of fire that hit the beasts.

boom!
These charged cannons are the ones that Li Yang and his team brought back from Xuanwu National Fortune some time ago. Under extreme conditions, one shot can even kill a fourth-level monster. They are extremely powerful!
But the monsters are not fools.

After the first round of bombardment from the charged cannons, they reacted immediately, sending a group of beetles with strong defenses to walk in front, forming a solid defense and advancing under the artillery fire.

Of course, the defense of these beetles is not absolute, and they will still be blown away under continuous bombardment.

But as soon as a beetle in front was blown up, a second beetle immediately replaced it to ensure the integrity of the defense.

In this situation, although many monsters were killed, the overall beast tide was still slowly advancing, getting closer and closer to the City of Dusk.

"It seems that they have indeed thought of a siege strategy, intending to use their numbers to directly approach the City of Dusk and gain the opportunity to take the initiative." Wang Mingfeng looked at the herd of beasts slowly approaching below, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"These monsters have become much smarter over the years."

"Charging the cannon alone is not enough. Prepare to activate the super energy array."

"Yes!"

After the beast tide approached the two-kilometer cordon of Dusk City, Wang Mingfeng decisively issued an order, "Super Energy Array, activate!"

In an instant, huge five-pointed white magic arrays lit up on the ground, launching an attack directly from below the beast tide, knocking countless monsters into the sky on the spot.

Then, a white beam of energy directly burned the monster that was knocked away into ashes.

The monsters' formation was broken and their advance was severely hindered.

At the same time, the charged cannons on the city wall took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack, accurately landing on the gap in the beast tide, and the explosion wave disintegrated the beetle's defense formation from the inside!
Humans have a lot of experience in dealing with beast tides.

After all, wars between humans and monsters have occurred more than once or twice.

The ability to rely on city defenses to carry out long-range attacks, which has been preserved to this day, is a great advantage of mankind.

In particular, humans can make various weapons. Although their power is not too strong, they can allow some first- and second-level extraordinary people to defeat third- and fourth-level monsters by controlling charged cannons.

This is the key reason why humans have been able to gain the upper hand until now.

At this moment, a huge energy ball with a diameter of more than ten meters suddenly shot out from the forest not far away and hit the barrier of Dusk City with a bang.

boom!
The power of this attack was so terrifying that the barrier of the entire Dusk City trembled violently.

Wang Mingfeng and the others' expressions changed slightly.
"What a powerful force... This is at least a level 6 monster attacking!"

There was no answer to their guess. The next moment, more than a dozen identical huge energy balls shot over again!
If all these energy balls were to fall onto the barrier of Dusk City, it would be very likely that the barrier would be broken directly!

At the critical moment, Zhao Changfeng jumped decisively with a spear in his hand. The tip of the spear drew a stream of fire in the air, instantly cutting all the energy balls in half.

boom--!
The energy ball exploded in the air, and the shock wave it generated caused the barrier to tremble continuously.

"Since we are going to fight, let's get some capable ones."

Zhao Changfeng twisted his neck and pointed the tip of the gun straight forward.

"Zhao Changfeng, don't worry, we have prepared an opponent for you."

A familiar voice came from a distance, and the Amethyst Wolf King walked out leisurely.

"Are you the only one? What about the old toad and the others? Or do you think you can break into the City of Dusk by yourself?" Zhao Changfeng snorted coldly.

"Whether it is possible or not, you have to try it to know."

"It just so happens that I failed to make a move the first two times. Today, let me see if your strength has improved!"

Zhao Changfeng stepped on the ground and immediately turned into a shadow and rushed straight towards the Amethyst Wolf King.

"Then let me see how strong you are!"

The Amethyst Wolf King also rushed out, and the man and the beast fought on the spot.

This is a battle between the world's top powers!

Zhao Changfeng is level seven, 1 star, and Amethyst Wolf King is level seven, 3 stars.

But when they fight, it is hard to tell who will win between the man and the beast.

"Don't be distracted, there are other monsters here."

Wang Mingfeng's words brought everyone back from their shock.

At this time, golden beams of light suddenly appeared behind the beast tide.

After the beam of light, monsters with different shapes but golden bodies appeared!

Roar--!
More than a dozen golden monsters roared together, shaking the sky with astonishing momentum.

"These...are actually all level six monsters?!"

Wang Mingfeng's face suddenly changed.

More than a dozen... When did the Everfree Forest have so many level 6 monsters?!
