I can see experience bars after being transported to another world.

At the same time, the ground throughout the city trembled continuously, and large amounts of sand, gravel, and soil fell down.

Immediately afterwards, roars rose and fell as ghouls and giant ghouls surged out of the ground like a tide.

The Night's Watch and the Holy Armored Army, who were already on high alert, lined up and charged forward.

The bronze-paved ground and the bronze structures did pose some natural threat to the ghouls, but only to a certain extent.

The remaining two fourth-tier Night Watch members did not blindly rush to provide support.

One stayed at the Night's Watch branch to ensure nothing went wrong, while the other headed to Rake's location.

After all, such a large-scale collapse often means that special chimeras will emerge, and with Rex's abilities, dealing with such things is really inefficient.

Rex had already arrived at the collapsed area at the junction of the inner and outer city.

It's far worse here than described in the communications.

At this moment, all the Night Watchmen here have perished, and hordes of ghouls are surging out from the breach. The bronze on the ground hisses as they tread upon it, and pieces of bronze show signs of decay.

Just then, the inscriptions on the inner city wall of the Bronze City suddenly lit up.

An immense pressure swept across the entire Bronze City, freezing large numbers of ghouls in place and finally giving the Night's Watch, who had been struggling to hold on, a much-needed respite.

As Kelek watched the ghouls pouring out of the gap, their numbers nearly matching those at the collapsed opening in the Old Council Square, his expression darkened.

The next moment, swarms of insects spread out from beneath his legs.

The oppressive aura of the Bronze City weighed down on Rek, noticeably slowing down the movement of the swarm.

But there's no other way right now, so he has to step up first.

The nuns who came to provide support had also arrived, and layers of holy light enveloped and echoed the ghouls. For a moment, the ghouls' offensive seemed to be suppressed.

But things aren't that simple.

The ground continued to tremble, which meant that more sinkholes would appear, and the Night's Watch was no longer strong enough to deal with them.

Being able to hold ten collapse points was already the limit with the help of the Holy Armor Army.

The remaining gap can only be filled by the private armies of the inner city nobles; hopefully, those knights can put in some effort.

The Bronze City was deathly still, and everyone was praying that the Night's Watch would win.

The gas lamps on the street flickered with a faint light.

Rex's swarm of insects had now spread out completely, and a large number of ghouls were being hunted within them.

The swarm of insects surged toward the massive collapse like a tide, instantly engulfing the ghouls that had just crawled out.

Rex stood atop the swarm, looking down at the passage below, his unease growing ever stronger.

An extremely strong polluting odor was brewing below.

Something is approaching.

Unfortunately, the Bronze City imposed too many restrictions on him. This place was located at the junction of the inner and outer cities, right next to the Bronze City wall, and the oppressive aura here was particularly strong against him.

Before Rick could come up with a solution, a huge arm reached up from below.

No, it's not just one.

Four or five enormous arms simultaneously emerged from below, forming a massive chimera, even larger and stronger than the one that had surged out of the collapsed area in the Old Parliament Square.

Rex's body was no longer human; only a pair of bright red eyes remained hanging above the insect nest of the swarming insects.

He knew in his heart that this time, he would probably have to fight to the death.

The next moment, the insect hive, made up of an endless swarm of insects, crashed into the horde of ghouls crawling out of the abyss.

Meanwhile, inside the Tower of Learning.

The guardian was sitting atop the tower. He had noticed it the moment the collapse occurred; the black threads binding his entire body and connecting him to the Tower of Learning had begun to twist slightly.

Before him hung a gigantic head.

No, it should be described as a small head formed from a mass of grayish-white mist.

It hovered in front of the guardian, as if it had sensed something.

The head made of mist opened its mouth slightly, and a voice rang in the guardian's ear.

"We must not intervene. The game has reached this point; let's wait and see."

The guardian ignored it. His hair was completely white, and his body exuded a black, viscous aura. Eyes kept appearing and disappearing.

He stared intently at the direction where the ghouls were most concentrated in the distance, and then fell silent.

In the past few days, he has become increasingly connected with the Tower of Learning, with the Bronze City, and with the so-called person on the wall before him.

Now the two are completely one body with two souls, restraining each other. If either of them makes a move, neither will be in a good position.

But the guardian knew in his heart that he had a fatal weakness.

In terms of vitality, he is far inferior to the man before him. If a fight were to break out, he would be the first to succumb.

He only has one chance left, and that's it.

The guard lowered his gaze, stopped thinking about it, and simply continued to sit in place.

His current plan is simple: to completely bind this person on the wall to himself.

He himself was indeed unable to take action, but this person remaining on the sidelines should also be prevented from making any further connections with the outside world, no matter what methods he was hiding.

As long as they don't die, both sides will be trapped in this information barrier.

At least I can summon Arthur and Hilde to my side.

Although some loss may occur when the message is sent out, at least something is still delivered.

Hopefully, Klaus and his team have already made the necessary arrangements.

On the Tower of Learning's side, the enormous head in front of the guardian seemed unconcerned by his silence.

As it says, the game of Bronze City has already begun, all the pieces have been placed, and all that can be done now is to wait and see.

It was equally unwilling to clash with the fifth-tier transcendent human before it. The head formed from mist flashed slightly in its eyes, and judging by the time, it was about time.

Meanwhile, the Qingtongcheng pipeline layer.

A large number of night watchmen were forced to disperse to various temporary sinkholes.

There were so many collapses that, apart from those who were simply too busy to spare, almost all the Night's Watch personnel that could be mobilized were deployed to guard the collapsed areas.

Meanwhile, Selena, accompanied by several tutors from the Tower of Erudition, carrying suitcases, dived down through a pipe network tunnel near the Tower of Erudition.

They avoided all the collapses and Night Watch outposts, as if they had planned it all along, carrying their boxes as they continued to move forward through the pipe network.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, they came to an extremely dark passage.

The surrounding pipe network had all disappeared, and something on the wall was vaguely twisting and rotating. Further ahead, four night watchmen were taking turns on duty.

Selena gestured to her mentor not to come out yet, and then stepped forward alone.

Selena's footsteps were inconspicuous in the pipe network layer, or rather, the Night Watchers near the eerie inscriptions had their senses compressed to an extremely close position.

The watchmen at the front only became alert when Selena emerged from the darkness.

"Halt ahead! This area has been taken over by the Night's Watch. No one is allowed to approach without Klaus's order!"

Selena held up her name tag, "I am a tutor at the Tower of Learning..."

Before he could finish speaking, four night watchmen stepped forward and blocked the passageway between the pipes.

"I'll say it again: Stop ahead. Do not approach. This is the first warning." The leader's hand was already on his weapon at his waist. "The second warning: retreat immediately, or it will be considered a provocation against the Night's Watch."

This place has been sealed off by the Night Watch. How did this mentor manage to bypass the blockade, and how did she even know about this place?

Selena smiled helplessly. She had expected this to happen; it was exactly as the adults had said.

She took two steps back, then waved her hand. The Night Watchman narrowed his eyes, his hand already on the weapon at his waist, his gaze fixed on her. But the next moment, more mentors stepped out from behind her.

The watchmen immediately realized that the visitors were hostile, and simultaneously chambered four silver-plated pistols, firing without any hesitation.

The moment they pulled the trigger, the instructors opened the boxes they were holding.

Inside the strangely colored box was a twisted mass of flesh and blood, as if it were still alive and grotesque.

The moment it was released, the distortion of the entire passage deepened, and a faint barrier appeared between the mentor and the Night Watchman.

"Bang bang bang..."

Gunfire erupted in the darkness of the pipeline network.

A dense barrage of silver-plated bullets shot out, but a bizarre scene unfolded: the silver-plated bullets, which almost covered the entire pipe network, all remained suspended in place.

All the bullets were intercepted?

"Fourth-tier transcendent? How is that possible?"

The lead watchman's expression changed, and the next moment, he threw out mithril.

But the mithril still seemed to have hit something, burning fiercely in the air in front of the mentor, forming a silver wall of fire.

But then, the wall of fire, like a curtain, slowly opened to both sides and gradually went out.

"Oops, it's not fourth-order..."

The four watchmen exchanged glances. One of them pulled out a communication crystal, only to find that the area had already been distorted and shrouded, making it impossible to contact the outside world.

"It seems we're in trouble..."

Before they could finish speaking, the bodies of the four people began to twist simultaneously, and the flesh of the leader even began to peel off, clearly indicating that he had used his extraordinary power in an attempt to resist.

But the flesh and blood released by the mentor had already stuck together, as if they were connected to something.

In the passage behind the Night Watchman, the twisted and eerie runes suddenly emitted a special light, trapping the four people in the middle.

The captain of the Night's Watch immediately understood what they were planning, but it was too late.

A tremendous wave of dizziness washed over them from all directions, the world before their eyes spun wildly, and a wave of exhaustion caused them to sway violently. The next moment, their consciousness sank completely into darkness.

Selena looked at the four unconscious Night Watchmen in front of her and gestured to the other mentors to move them aside.

Two men dressed in the robes of the Tower of Learning mentors stepped forward and dragged the four of them to the wall.

"Be careful not to let them die," Selena said, closing the box again, and the mass of flesh was absorbed back into it.

The group picked up their suitcases and strode toward the copper wall.

"There are 30 minutes until the next shift change, hurry up."

As Selena spoke, she disappeared into the network of pipes covered with strange inscriptions.
