In the first wave of attacks, the worker bee loss rate was 5%.

Upon returning to the platform, the researchers who had been waiting immediately stepped forward, loaded another type of ammunition, and reactivated the worker bees' magic circle.

—It's worth mentioning that, in order to prevent magical energy from accidentally triggering the bombs and causing them to explode, the bomb explosion mechanism in the ancient capital is death energy, which is the energy used by undead attacks and is completely different from the energy that sustains the swarm's flight.

The swarm of bees took to the sky once again, but this time they did not attack the undead. Instead, they flew in a line around the city walls, dropping bombs.

Boom boom boom! ! !

The sheer volume of noise from the dense deployment was so loud that Xu Fang could feel the air vibrating.

A deep pit appeared, and the undead that had survived the first wave of attacks rushed over, only to fall into the pit and be trampled underfoot by their companions.

The reason for making them on-site instead of during the day is that most high-ranking undead possess earth-based abilities, and trenches made in advance could easily be wiped out by a few spells, which would be a greater loss than gain.

"Molotov cocktails!"

The third round, this time with incendiary bombs!

The dead fear light most, followed by fire.

But light can be blocked by other dead, while fire is everywhere!

The incendiary bombs were dropped into the crater along the same trajectory as the stun grenades, and the raging flames made every dead person the perfect accelerant.

This is also the most expensive of the three types of bombs. It took the Research Institute a long time to find the material that could burn for a long time on the undead.

The price goes against the concept of cheap and durable products, making them quite unappealing to the general public, with each one costing over 200,000 yuan.

But it's worth the price.

The dead struggled to crawl out of the trench, but their limbs were burning continuously, and countless of their companions above, below, and to the sides were also burning!

"Ughhhhhh!"

"Ughhhhhh!!"

Two low, trembling roars suddenly echoed through the darkness, followed by the violent blasting away of a large patch of soil that had hardened like a wooden board.

A ferocious-looking undead with bull horns crawled out of the ground, its body shaking the dust as it stepped on the earth.

The menacing glint in their eyes was terrifying, like two small searchlights.

"Attention! A warrior-level undead has appeared in the north-northeast direction. Attention! A warrior-level undead has appeared in the north-northeast direction. It intends to damage the city walls!"

An alarm sounded on the watchtower.

Xu Fang was ready for battle. As usual, bombs were not enough to deal with general-level demons; mages were needed!

But reality once again exceeded his expectations.

"Hive! Hive! A large number of undead targets of general level have been detected outside the city. Requesting 100 Blazing Bullets!"

"Honeycomb has received your application. 100 applications have been rejected, and 50 are being delivered!"

The worker bees that had been hovering over the undead returned, but their casualty rate was high when facing the warrior-level undead.

Xu Fang finally understood why Qin Li always had an endless amount of money in the account he opened for him.

The transport soldiers quickly climbed the city wall. Although they were also wearing military uniforms, they did not have any magical energy fluctuations on them; they were just ordinary people.

Ordinary people are the best candidates to transport bombs.

The incandescent bomb is larger than a regular bomb, about the size of a tissue, and there are not many of them compared to the regular models.

Lifted by worker bees, it flies to the area with the highest concentration of warrior-level undead and throws it!

boom! ! ! ! !

The blinding light, like a burning miniature sun, obliterated the powerful warrior-level warriors one by one.

A loud cheer erupted from the city wall, especially from ordinary people and new recruits, who roared at the scattered undead tide as if venting their emotions.

"We..." After the initial shock, Liu Ru hadn't forgotten the important matter: "Do we still need to summon the undead?"

"no need."

Xu Fang shook his head; reality was beyond his imagination.

The area outside Anjie has been plowed by bombs countless times, and even the most powerful rain has disappeared.

To obtain rainwater, one would have to venture far into the horde of the dead, which is simply unrealistic.

Even if it rains outside the city, Xu Fang cannot allow Liu Ru to use necromancy. What if it triggers the bomb explosion mechanism?

"We can only do it tomorrow," Xu Fang said.

Because they needed to venture deep outside the city, Xu Fang decided to find a qualified team as a precaution.

The Magic Association is full of experts, but they are not very interested in going out. Xu Fang investigated on the official website and found that most of the missions related to leaving the city were bomb transport missions, and the accompanying people were strictly screened and could not be boarded halfway.

Xu Fang then went to the official website of the Ancient Capital Hunters Alliance to check. Among the hunter mages, there were plenty who were not afraid of death.

The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish; where there is danger, there is treasure, and that's where hunters will appear.

The official website also has a "Trust Ranking", which ranks the hunters based on their own strength, mission success rate, and the strength and status of the people who vouch for them.

After some searching, Xu Fang selected a hunter named "Shorty Loves Big Girls," chatted with him privately for a couple of minutes, and confirmed their intention to cooperate.

"Let's go to the Hunter's Alliance now and talk in person."

······

Ancient Capital Hunters Alliance.

"Ten million! Why don't you just rob someone?" Mo Fan cursed.

"This is the price for going to Yangyang Village. You think it's too expensive, but I think it's too expensive too!" the short man with two tufts of mustache said firmly.

"Ten million is too expensive, give me a 20% discount!" Mo Fan said helplessly.

Poor!

Although they gained a lot from the North Corner of Zhuoyuan, they sold it all to pay off Xu Fang's debts, and the little bit left went into Xiao Yanji's belly as milk powder money.

Little Flame Princess is the most expensive baby in the world!

Every time he saw her eating the spirit seed fragments like chocolate, Mo Fan's heart ached, and he would even inexplicably think of Xu Fang's suggestion of "forming a marriage alliance".

No no no!

If I really do that, Xu Fang will be fine, but I will definitely be hunted down to death by the Flame Witch!

"It's a bit cheaper now..."

"Why are you like this? I've said it enough! I'm a man of principle!" the short man said angrily. "Let me tell you, my business is booming, I don't need you. Someone already made a reservation online!"

"I don't believe it. What kind of sucker would do that?"

When Xu Fang entered the Hunter Alliance, this was the scene he saw: Mo Fan and the short man were arguing heatedly, looking like shrewish women cursing in the street.

Chapter 232 Asha'ruya

"Mo Fan, let's not mince words. Let's all be civilized."

Hearing that familiar voice, Mo Fan turned around abruptly and saw a familiar face: "Damn! Yellow Hair, what are you doing here?"

"same as you."

Xu Fang looked at the short man, who reluctantly withdrew his gaze from Liu Ru and twitched his mustache: "Twenty million for two people, not a penny less."

"can."

Xu Fang readily agreed, and also covered Mo Fan's two million shortfall: "Remember to pay me back."

"Saving my brother is the priority; we can talk about paying back the money later."

"Then you stay here, I'll go by myself."

"No, no, no, you... Where did you find out about the monkey's accident? You didn't even tell me! Don't you consider me a brother?!"

"Didn't you tell me that yourself?"

"I'm afraid you'll die, you son of a bitch, you're a hypocrite!"

"That's what you call double standards! Alright, Mo Fan, you just broke through to the advanced Long-Term Market Realm. Come here, let Brother Xu teach you a lesson..."

As luck would have it, Mo Fan was also in the short man's group; his only purpose was to find his good brother, Zhang Xiaohou.

Xu Fang's purpose was not so simple. Compared to Zhang Xiaohou, he needed the rainwater to prove the existence of the Black Court behind the scenes.

Only in this way can the application to the Forbidden Spells Association be successfully approved, allowing either Jiang Chong or Chief of Staff Feng to be transferred to guard the area.

In the original story, the catastrophe in the ancient capital happened suddenly. The undead besieged the city, making it impossible to enter or leave. The entire event lasted only a day and a half, and the forbidden spellcasters had no time to provide support.

The strongest combatant, the super-level peak mage Lu Huan, fell into the Abyss of Fiends, and the ancient capital lost an arm. Whether it was top-level, mid-level, or bottom-level combat power, they were far inferior to the vast undead empire.

This time is different.

The widespread use of bombs and swarms of bees effectively suppressed the undead tide. Although the cost was enormous, it was a thousand times better than risking human lives.

In this way, mid-level and high-level mages can free up their resources to fight against general-level and commander-level undead. High-ranking figures like Zhu Meng and Han Ji can also fight against equally matched monarch-level undead.

Xu Fang, on the other hand, still needs to secure the "Kunjing Spring" before the Black Court, which is the key to breaking the "Nine Netherworld Dew" in the rainwater!

With the water of Kun Well, the spirits of the dead will continue to slumber, buying time for the ancient capital to fight for control!

This game of chess has now been turned around.

Xu Fang was just an ordinary high-level mage, and that was all he could do for the ancient capital.

······

The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight pierced the sky, Xu Fang and Mo Fan arrived at the agreed-upon South Gate.

The short man and his guide, Da Zhuang, were already waiting there.

The rest of the people had also arrived. Among the group of oddly shaped people, a woman wearing a black silk veil stood out.

The woman's outfit was incredibly alluring; despite the cold weather, she wore a silk robe embroidered with peacocks, and a soft, bright red shawl hung down luxuriously, swaying as she walked.

Not to mention her body curves, it's vulgar and unsuitable for children.

"I've been a womanizer for so many years, I've seen all kinds of beautiful women with great figures, but this woman... I'd rather live ten years less just to sleep with her once."

The short man looked as wretched as a goblin.
