Why is my territory in a 2D anime art style?

Chapter 147 Sudden Sonic Attack

Yes, even Zhao Feng, who was already at level five, thought that the most terrifying thing in the Blood Moon Rift was not the top-level source beasts, but the massive impact of source beasts.

Based on her experience, the source beasts attracted by the opening of the rift are mostly related to the level of the professionals in the territory.

Based on tonight's situation, the top-tier source beasts are unlikely to exceed level five, since she is the highest level in the territory; it's just a matter of whether there's one or more.

By gritting our teeth and using the buildings in our territory, we can still hold out.

However, the mainstream source beast impact is the most deadly.

If one or two thousand level-three Thunder-Patterned Leopards charged out, even if the five of them wore down their blades, they would be exhausted to death, not to mention the depletion of their source energy.

There's no way to kill them all!

At this moment, if they hadn't used an illusion to forcibly control these hundreds of Thunder-Patterned Leopards, they wouldn't have been able to spare any effort to kill those level-four Thunder-Patterned Leopards outside the wall.

"How many are there?"

Ye Tengyang had already recovered from his shock. The source of his horror was not the powerful firepower, but the fact that all the low-level Thunder Pattern Leopards were rushing towards the illusion like madmen. This was the first time he had ever seen such a situation, so he didn't understand it for a moment.

Now he realized that this thing seemed to be able to trap these low-level Thunder-Patterned Leopards in an illusion, making them mistakenly believe that the illusion was their territory.

It's an absolute godsend for crushing noobs!

"There should be two or three hundred now." Erhu glanced around the illusion, remembered the method Sui An had taught him, and made an estimate.

Sui An looked at the erhu with surprise, then quite pleased: "Erhu, you've finally learned how to do accounts!"

"roll!"

The twelve elemental statues had long since cooled down and began to roar in unison. In the less than a minute since the mid-level Thunderpatter Leopard was killed, a large number of low-level Thunderpatter Leopards had already accumulated around the illusion.

However, the elemental statues can basically keep up with the current rate of increase, and the number of them around the illusions is even decreasing. Facing the Thunder-Patterned Leopards that only attack and do not defend, twelve Thunder Magic Bullets can kill at least twenty of them at once. With the addition of four Gold-Shattering Cannons, it is indeed not a big problem.

"Xiao An, what about your talisman?" Wang Zhen came to Sui An's side and asked softly.

"There's one more. If a top-tier source beast appears, it'll be a backup plan!"

Sui An knew what Wang Zhen was worried about. He had originally prepared these two talismans to get the fruit, but he didn't expect to use one on Ning Pan.

Because there's still one left, he's not too nervous yet.

Moreover, even without the five of them, even if he relied solely on himself, those three Thunder-Patterned Leopards that charged forward alive just now might not have been able to do anything.

The three-in-one great barrier is unlikely to be broken in a short time by the three of them alone, and they can only be put into a situation of attrition.

Once our elemental statues recover, we can unleash a second barrage of attacks, which should at least hold them off for a while longer, as long as we wait for the Sword Star to recover.

Just kidding. If a territory with fourteen blue attack buildings, nine purple buildings, and one gold building can't handle a rift of this strength, then wouldn't he have been cheating for nothing?

If he can't even get through it, then he has to wonder how the original second-generation one managed to survive the fifth consecutive Blood Moon Rift.

The current intensity is not yet at the level of the Ice Mist Tide on the night of the full moon, or even the night when two level 5 ice demons appeared.

That level 5 ice demon is equivalent to three or four level 4 source beasts.

Hearing Sui An's reply, Wang Zhen felt much more relaxed. That special being could indeed put people at ease.

With the eleven level 4 Thunder Pattern Leopards killed, the subsequent surge of creatures emerging from the secret realm consisted mainly of low-level Thunder Pattern Leopards, and even some other source beasts began to appear, though most were still level 3 source beasts.

The illusion swayed precariously, and the time for the first one had expired. Sui An replaced it with the second one just in time.

Although the illusion changed once, the number of source beasts outside did not decrease.

"This time the number is even greater than the previous Shadow Troll attack. In just ten minutes, I estimate that two thousand Source Beasts have already appeared."

Sui An stared at the dense white and green dots on his detection projection and almost burst out laughing.

"This time it's probably worth as much as last month's, and my level 4 promotion will probably be a month ahead of schedule."

"It's like he's cheating," Erhu muttered, pursing his lips. "He has a cheat code but doesn't share it with his brothers."

Sui An looked up and glared at Erhu: "Why didn't I give you any? If it weren't for me, would you be eating fruit today?"

As the two were chatting, a warning sound came from the detection projection below. Two orange dots crossed the warning line at an extremely fast speed, even faster than the group of Thunder-striped Leopards from before.

"What is it?"

"It looks like a flying Origin Beast!"

In the sky, two huge shadows drifted in under the blood moon. They did not fly very high, and everyone could clearly see their appearance.

"Giant bloodthirsty bat! Cover your ears!"

Ye Tengyang was startled and instinctively cried out.

Sure enough, a sharp explosion suddenly came from the sky. Caught off guard, everyone felt as if a sharp cone had been pierced into their ears, twisting wildly, causing excruciating pain.

The explosions continued unabated, even affecting the low-level source beasts below, who stopped attacking and began shaking their heads.

"Damn it, yell again!"

Sui An raised Jian Xing's vision and immediately locked onto the two giant bats. The small Flame Sword streaked across the sky, shooting wildly towards the giant bat like a meteor.

The sudden attack interrupted its screech. It tried to dodge the attacks of these flaming swords in mid-air, but there were too many of them. Even at its speed, it could not dodge them all and was pierced by three swords in succession.

Their physical defenses were clearly inferior even to those of ordinary level four source beasts. Three bowl-sized holes, gleaming with blood, slowly fell from the sky and crashed outside the territory.

Sui An glanced at the detection projection; the light spots had already dissipated, proving that the two bats had been killed.

He looked at the quiet cyan barrier on the wall and shook his head helplessly: "As expected, there is no invincible defense. No matter what defensive means you have, there will always be some unexpected attack that can bypass your defenses and attack you."

"Damn it, how did I run into such a bizarre source beast? It almost made me deaf!" Erhu vigorously picked at his ears, as if that would make them feel better.

Ye Tengyang, still shaken, said, "The world is full of wonders. We encountered this thing once in the wild, and we almost all died!"

"Even if you use source energy to protect your ears, you can only slightly reduce the noise of this thing. Only soundproofing can prevent it from making noise. If it continues to make noise like this, our eardrums will be damaged or even blown out."

"The key is, without ranged attack methods, you can't even hit it!"

Fang Si jumped from the gun emplacement to the other side, looking at Fang Nian who was crouching with her head in her hands, her face full of anxiety: "Little sister, are you alright?"

If we were to say who among those present was the weakest, aside from Fang's parents who were already in the stone house, it would be Sui An and Fang Nian. Although Sui An was a weak builder, he was still a level three, and each time he advanced, his physique would improve a little, making him a step above ordinary people.

However, Fang Nian was a newly awakened alchemist, and his physique was even weaker.

"It's nothing, it's just a little tinnitus—"

Fang Nian reached out and patted her earlobe, seemingly trying to make the tinnitus disappear.

"Why don't you go back inside and rest?" Fang Si still felt a little sorry for him. "And check on Mom and Dad while you're at it!"

"Oh, okay!" Fang Nian nodded, turned around and stepped off the gun platform.

A spot became available on the gun emplacement, and Ye Tengyang jumped over without hesitation, leaving only Zhao Feng standing on the watchtower.

Sui An kept rubbing the outside of his earlobe; it was really uncomfortable. He even wanted to open a healing stage to treat himself, but he had already opened two stages, so he had to put it aside for now.

He only made three stages. More of these things are not very useful normally. Three stages are enough for them to restore their source energy.

If there's an urgent need, he has enough materials to set up eight level-three stages at once, but it would be a bit of a waste.

This is only a level 3 blue building after all. It will gradually become marginalized when it reaches the intermediate level. The materials can be stored and exchanged for starlight.

After being suddenly attacked by giant bloodthirsty bats, everyone fell silent again, with only the roar of cannons echoing through the territory.

Another ten minutes passed, and Sui An used up his third illusion. Once this illusion was used up, he would be unable to use it again for a short period of time.

The beast tide before them had only reduced the number of source beasts rushing out; it was still at least half the frequency of the initial surge, as if countless source beasts lay on the other side of the rift.

This frequency is actually not a big problem for Sui An anymore. Even without illusions, his twelve elemental statues can suppress it. At most, he can also bring over the other two.

"I have this feeling that this seemingly dangerous Blood Moon Rift is actually a welfare program for you."

Erhu stopped wielding the Gold-Shattering Cannon. The number of source beasts was now so large that the cannon was no longer needed; the elemental statues alone were enough to flatten them.

"There should be more level 5 source beasts appearing. I don't really believe that only some level 4 source beasts appeared in that nearly six-meter-high rift."

Sui An would occasionally turn his head to glance at the detection projection. According to past practice, some powerful source beasts should have appeared by now.

Erhu leaned on the railing, looking around: "Even if one or two level-five source beasts come, it won't change anything. For you, it's still just free money, or even free spoils."

"That makes sense." Sui An suddenly thought of getting a few level-five source beasts. He'd been so lucky lately; maybe he could get another blueprint.

As if Sui An's wish had come true, the detection projection beside him sounded an urgent warning again, and a red dot stepped into the projection.

"I told you that there would definitely be higher-level source beasts to finish things off."

17

Sui An spread his hands: "Can you tell what kind of source beast it is?"

This time, the red dot's speed wasn't particularly fast; it couldn't even outrun a level four Thunder Leopard.

Erhu raised his binoculars and looked over, and saw a huge lizard rushing toward its territory.

"It looks like a lizard, very large, entirely purple, and it has a single horn on its head. It's comparable to that Shadow Lizard King!"

"That's a level-five source beast, the Thunder Giant Lizard. Its single horn can fire lightning arrows, which are incredibly powerful."

Zhao Feng's slightly low voice came from the side. She had been in a low mood all night, and it was clear that Ning Pan's matter had had a great impact on her. She stood up, holding her knife. This lizard was level five, so she should go out and fight it.

But Sui An didn't wait for the giant lizard to get close at all.

The reason why the Thunder Leopard dared not make a move was because it was too fast.

These slow-moving reptiles obviously don't fall into this category, so Sui An chose the [Fire Phoenix] mode to start, as the initial mode is clearly not suitable for dealing with single monsters.

But the moment the giant flaming sword struck down, a dazzling bolt of lightning flashed across the ground.

To everyone's surprise, the lightning arrow was much smaller than the flame sword, but its power was extraordinary, and it actually shattered the huge flame sword on the spot.

"Wow, are the lightning arrows from this thing really that powerful?"

"Something's not right. The Thunder Giant Lizard is just an ordinary level 5 source beast. Logically speaking, its lightning arrows shouldn't be this powerful. To be able to shatter your Flame Greatsword in one hit, the power of this attack has already reached level 6."

Fang Si's voice rang out from the side. He had seen a source beast shatter a giant flame sword head-on, that was the level 6 ice demon. Even a level 5 ice demon could not shatter a giant flame sword in one blow.

"We'll see if we try again!" As soon as Sui An finished speaking, this time a rain of swords filled the sky, which could not be stopped by a single lightning arrow.

The Thunder Lizard still did not choose to run away or dodge. Its horn shone brightly, illuminating the area as if it were daytime. It even transformed into a huge electric net covering it, trying to block the rain of fiery swords.

However, the power of the electric grid this time was obviously much weaker. It could not directly detonate the small fire sword. Instead, the fire sword rain pierced through the electric grid and pierced into its body.

"roar!"

A painful roar echoed from afar. Its body was enormous, now riddled with flaming swords, but its defenses were not weak either; the swords could only penetrate more than halfway before they could not go any further.

But the third attack from the sky has arrived again, this time it is still a giant sword of fire.

Sui An had the sword rain lead the way to prevent the giant fire sword from being shattered by the lightning arrows, and the result was exactly as he expected.

This time, the unexploded Flame Sword pierced fiercely into the Thunder Giant Lizard below. Compared to its eight or nine-meter-long body, the giant Flame Sword was no less impressive in size, piercing its back and almost cutting its already riddled body in half.

This time, the giant lizard's howl was extremely pitiful, but the next second, the fire phoenix soared into the air and passed over its body. The terrifying high temperature impact scorched its purple scales, causing them to deform, and the blood gushing from its wounds evaporated instantly.

The wailing gradually weakened, and the red light on the detection projection slowly dissipated.

"That's it? Not so great." Sui An curled his lips. The first strike shattered the flaming greatsword, which frankly startled him. He thought he had encountered an elite or even lord-level level 5 source beast.
