Chapter 38:
Gu Mi held a knife and stood alone in front of the territory's gate, raising his eyes to look into the distance.
-silence.
This is the only information returned by the forest, as if the beast tide she sensed did not exist at all.
Even as the minutes passed, the silence continued.
"Is there really a beast tide?"
Unable to bear, there was a question from the person who volunteered to guard the edge of the territory with everyone.
The others didn't say anything, but everyone had the same suspicious look in their eyes, but it wasn't suspicion. They never doubted their lord. Even if the lord made a misjudgment this time, it would be a false alarm at most, nothing at all.
Besides, the reason why the Lord is so nervous is not for the safety of all of them?
As soon as this thought came up, someone issued a warning.
"No, it's too quiet!"
Orcs are born with super perceptive powers, and Tu Xiaosi was the first person other than Gu Mi who noticed something strange.
She sensed something, raised her ears suddenly, and turned her head to look in the direction of the territory's exit.
"Boom!" The
sky-high flames ignited in an instant, reflecting the entire pitch-black sky as bright as day. Accompanied by countless deafening roars, the earth began to tremble violently.
The beast tide has actually lurked near the territory!
The war is on!
"Captain, the beast tide has gone to Lord Lord, should we rush over to help?" A lanky young man next to Avery asked anxiously.
The movement at the entrance of the territory was so great that it could be called earth-shattering. Almost all the people in the territory were aware of it as long as they were not deaf, blind, or unconscious.
In comparison, their side was still terribly silent.
"Need not."
Avery looked directly at the forest in front of him, and raised his giant hammer: "Our enemy has arrived."
Hearing this, the tall and thin young man turned his head subconsciously.
I saw that in the forest in the dark night, pairs of ghostly beast pupils flashing with ferocious green light appeared in twos and threes. These beast pupils soon spread to all the corners that the tall and thin young man could occupy in the entire field of vision, and there were many more. More...
hidden in the dark!
Dong Dong...
The heart beat like a drum, shocked by the sudden fear.
Subconsciously swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the tall and thin young man suddenly found that his hand holding the weapon trembled slightly.
He is afraid.
This is a matter of course, who wouldn't be afraid of so many wild beasts?
And this is the most terrifying and desperate beast tide!
"Everyone listens to the order!"
The tall and thin young man just felt a little bit of retreat in his heart, and the tall and thin young man heard the lord's clear and majestic female voice ringing in his ears: "Attack, guard our homeland!"
"Guard our homeland! "
"Guard our homeland!"
...
These words were like chicken blood, and they immediately aroused the morale of everyone. Everyone raised their weapons and rushed forward bravely, fighting against the incoming beast horde.
The tall and thin young man was holding a homemade spear and desperately stabbed forward through the fence.
The tip of the spear pierced deeply into the body of the beast, and when it was pulled back, a gushing blood splattered the face of the tall and thin young man. Continue to kill the enemy, showing great courage.
The timidity just now seemed to have never existed. At this time, there was only one thought left in the heart of the tall and thin young man.
-I will guard our home!
"Morale Boost (Orange): The lord's exclusive skill, which can boost the morale of one's own side by means of verbal cues, and increase the attack power of one's own side by 5%. Each use consumes 150 intelligence points, and the cooling time is three days."
After casting the skill, While dealing with the beast tide in front of him, Gu Mi focused on the battle situation in other parts of the territory by using "God-level perception".
She was not surprised when she saw someone showing timidity on the spot before.
After all, everyone knows how terrible the beast tide is. Under such circumstances, those people can still take up weapons to help defend the enemy, which is already very courageous.
So in order to boost everyone's morale, she resorted to this newly lit skill on the lord skill tree.
Killing monsters is the same thing.
It's normal to be afraid and not dare to do it at first, but as long as you really start to fight against it, after you realize that the monster is not as scary as you think, and it can even be killed by you, the initial timidity will be natural. dissipated.
Next is a head-to-head battle!
"Self-created knife skills, full moon!" The
full blood-colored full moon swirled out, and the terrifying and sharp knife energy was like a high-speed rotating cutting machine, frantically strangling all the beasts in the way.
For a time, blood was flying all over the field.
Seeing this scene, many beasts who had fallen into madness could not help but stagnate for a moment, but in the next instant, they were stimulated even more violently by the strong smell of blood. Territory attack!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
Numerous long-range attacks such as wind blades, fireballs, water arrows, etc. landed on the territory above the territory, and were intercepted by the automatically flashing territory protection array.
The beast that was rushing in at the front was unable to hold back its momentum. It slammed into the pointed wooden fence and was pierced by the sharp long wood, hanging on it like a pile of rotten meat.
The territory's fortifications are helping to resist the beast tide.
Gu Mi was not idle either.
She guarded the only entrance to the territory with the momentum of being a husband and a man, like the most solid rock, firmly blocking the footsteps of any crazy beast.
Don't let them step into the territory.
Relying on the high intelligence value, she calculated the cooldown time of each skill, and smashed the powerful skills at hand one by one, bombarding the dense beasts indiscriminately as if they didn't need money.
The effect is remarkable.
In less than half an hour, she briefly cleared a vacuum at the entrance of the territory!
Unfortunately, the next moment was filled with more monsters.
Brings deeper powerlessness and despair.
Is this beast tide endless?
If it were another person, he would definitely have fallen into a similar negative emotion, but Gu Mi, who was already used to it, didn't respond, and still kept outputting at his own attack rhythm calmly and calmly.
She didn't jump into the beast horde alone and fight happily.
Although she really wanted to, and this was how Gu Miyi used to deal with the beast tide, her identity was different at this time. She was no longer a lonely ranger, but a family leader, and her identity changed from a Charger to a Ranger. Guardians, of course, have to change the way they deal with the beast tide.
So Gu Mi only waved his knife to kill the unlucky monsters that came to him, and most of the time he regarded himself as a long-range mage standing on the ground, constantly throwing skills into the distance.
...
too many!
There are too many monsters!
The endless beasts keep rushing in.
This battle has lasted for nearly two hours. No matter how powerful Gu Mi is, how high his intelligence value is, and the continuous continuation of his blood and blue skills such as Earth Breath, he gradually feels that he is approaching the limit.
Both physically and mentally.
But she can't fall. She is the only one guarding the entrance to the territory. Once she falls, the territory will be completely lost!
"It's still a little too big."
Taking a deep breath, Gu Mi's throat rolled, swallowing the liquid that poured into his throat, and he tasted a bloody smell of rusty iron.
Her internal organs were injured.
Just when he was besieged by monsters, he was accidentally punched in the abdomen by a wild boar-shaped monster that took a suicide attack, and the sharp fangs pierced a blood hole on the side, injuring the internal organs.
At this time, the blood has been stopped under the effect of the small rejuvenation technique, and the wound still has a tendency to heal, but the injured internal organs cannot be cured by a mere white-level treatment skill.
And Gu Mi didn't dare to waste too much intelligence on treating himself.
"Roar!"
A beast roar resounded through the sky.
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the territory that was stubbornly resisting the beast tide could clearly perceive that the attack of the beasts became more intensive and crazy.
"Hold on, this is the last attack of the beast horde!"
Using the territory announcement to boost his morale, Gu Mi clenched the blood moon machete tightly, and showed a hideous smile at the beasts who were attacking wildly in front of him.
"The time has come,"
she whispered.
The arc-shaped and smooth blood-colored machete was lifted from left to right, volleyed across the two crimson half-moons, and then crossed each other, making a crisp metal collision sound.
"Qiang-" The
long buzzing sound spreads continuously in the form of invisible ripples, and gradually, there is some invisible and invisible existence that corresponds to it.
The dots of fluorescent light floated out from the corpses of some of the fallen beasts, and continued to gather in the ripples. With the vibration of the sound waves, there were blood-colored afterimages of the dead.
"The Blood Moon Scimitar comes with the skill Sword Shadow Revenant!"
The function of the sword shadow ghost is to collect a wisp of the dead soul of the enemy killed by it, turn it into an existence similar to a summoned beast, store it in the blade, and call it out to help defend the enemy when Gu Mi needs it.
Those that Gu Mi killed in the past are not counted, just look at how many monsters Gu Mi killed with the blood moon machete in this beast tide, even she can't remember.
At this time, all the dead souls of these beasts were summoned and displayed silently in front of her, as if there was an extra army of dead souls!
Unfortunately, this army of dead souls is a one-time consumable.
Because the Blood Moon Scimitar can only collect one strand of dead soul from each enemy who dies under its blade, the power of one strand of dead soul is limited, so after using it once, those dead souls will automatically dissipate and return to nature.
But it's enough just to deal with the situation at hand.
"Roar—!"
"Roar—!" The
Wraith Warcraft and the Beast Tide Warcraft roared at each other, roaring straight towards each other.
The two groups of beasts who could be considered to have fought side by side had completely reversed their positions after the separation of life and death.
Even the Wraith Warcraft is even more dominant.
Because they are more numerous, and they are not afraid of death, or are already in a state of death, they are not afraid at all.
Therefore, it became a matter of course that the weight of the final victory was tilted towards Gu Mi.
When the last Warcraft fell under the siege of the Wraith Warcraft, the difficult battle finally came to an end.
Temporary end.
Hearing this news, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then regardless of their embarrassed image, they sat on the ground directly, or simply lay down and looked up at the sky that gradually lit up above their heads.
"We... won?"
"Well, won."
Someone asked uncertainly and quickly got a positive response from others.
