Chapter 303 -300: Fighting a Way Out
“Why do I get the feeling… they seem to be in a hurry?”
“You think so too? Could it be that a conflict erupted somewhere, and they’ve already started fighting?”
“No way, who would dare start a fight inside the Sanctuary now? I’ve heard that someone got fined a hundred Source Crystals for just smashing a few street lamps, and they’d get even harsher punishment like forced labor in the mines… Everyone here isn’t a newbie anymore. If there’s a conflict, they’d settle it in the ring without making the Patrol Team rush like this.”
Another five Awakeners from the Patrol Team ran past them; a formation of five was the standard team size.
As an old-timer… an old salt-level adventurer, He Yuanhang recognized a familiar face and shouted out, “Xing, what are you guys up to?”
Xing glanced back, stopping in his tracks. He pondered for a moment and visually consulted the team leader amongst them before approaching He Yuanhang and the others. He organized his words, “This isn’t something that needs to be kept secret. Time is limited, so I’ll keep it short. A Demon Tide is coming, and it’s likely not a small one. You’d best not leave the Sanctuary.”
After he spoke, he and the others hurriedly left, heading towards their defense position.
He Yuanhang and his companions looked at each other in confusion.
“Weren’t we told that the Abyssal Rifts were rare in this area and that the density of Demonized Beasts was very low? Why is there suddenly a Demon Tide?”
“With the strength of Green Shadow Sanctuary, a normal Demon Tide should pose no threat, right? Those towering high towers outside, I hear they are powerful weapons against the Demonized Beasts.”
They were puzzled but soon walked out of the shopping district and arrived at the entrance of the Sanctuary.
Here, many Awakeners were gathering, all having heard the news of the impending Demon Tide.
Some were panicking and leading their teams, trying to leave before the Demon Tide arrived to avoid the disaster.
Others seemed unconcerned, “Green Shadow Sanctuary has faced the Demon Tide not just once or twice. Every time, it easily eradicated the incoming tide. This time won’t be an exception. Since Green Shadow spent a fortune building the shopping district, they definitely have the confidence to hold their ground.”
This statement resonated with many.
Even newcomers to the sanctuary recognized the might of Green Shadow Sanctuary. Apart from lacking massive city walls and having a smaller population, it hardly differed from major sanctuaries.
He Yuanhang and his teammates naturally had no plans to leave.
At that moment, one team member pointed in a direction, “Weren’t those guys just leaving? Why have they come back?”
Several distant Awakeners were running frantically, unharmed yet looking utterly panicked and afraid.
“The… the Demonized Beasts are too numerous, they cover the sky and have surrounded the Sanctuary!”
“It’s not a first-level Demon Tide, nor just a second-level, there are too many… too many to see the end.”
The speaker’s face was pale, and his voice trembled, seemingly not faking. Someone sensed the presence of these Awakeners; they were third layer, not weak, so why were they that terrified by the Demon Tide?
The Awakeners staying at the entrance became even more baffled.
“That’s… one of the top teams, the Divine Wind Battle Team, and its leader is a boss-level fighter, why do they… look so disheveled?”
Team leader Chen Feng had his hand on his shoulder, covered in blood, with several of his teammates also varying in injuries.
Without waiting for others to ask, Chen Feng spoke up, “A Demon Tide is coming, heading right for Green Shadow Sanctuary. I know some plan to flee to avoid the tide, but I advise everyone not to hold onto that hope.”
“The scale of the Demon Tide is enormous, absolutely massive! I flew up to observe; it really sprawls across the sky. This isn’t just a figure of speech, even from dozens of meters in the air I couldn’t see the end. The routes out of the Sanctuary are blocked by the Demon Tide, even I, who can fly, can’t be sure, so instead of clinging to the hope of escape, I suggest everyone stay alert to withstand the coming tide.”
Chen Feng’s words caused the surrounding Awakeners to visibly turn pale.
While some doubted, Chen Feng had no reason to lie. As a boss-level fighter, his words carried substantial weight.
The scars on his body to some extent, also illustrated the ferocity of the Demon Tide, knowing he was a Wind Series Ability User, regarded as one of the strongest survivors.
“Captain Chen, how big is the scale of the Demon Tide? What level is it?”
Chen Feng hesitated briefly but eventually decided to speak out, “Based on my estimation, it’s a fourth-level Demon Tide.”
A level one Demon Tide involves hundreds of Demonized Beasts.
A level two, thousands.
The third, tens of thousands.
The fourth, hundreds of thousands.
The fifth, over a million.
What does it mean to face hundreds of thousands of Demonized Beasts? The entire Green Shadow Sanctuary has, at most, only a few thousand Awakeners, even with the influx of people due to the opening of the commercial district and the Martial Path Tournament.
Thousands versus hundreds of thousands.
Some were directly frightened into stupidity while others turned pale.
They understood why Chen Feng had urged them not to harbor any delusions about escaping. Facing hundreds of thousands of Demonized Beasts, even Boss-Level powerhouses would struggle to break out, let alone ordinary people like them.
Even if they remained in perfect condition to defend against the Demon Tide…
Green Shadow is strong, and they themselves are not weak. If it were a level one or two Demon Tide, perhaps they could stand against it; even a third layer might be manageable.
But the fourth level is too terrifying.
When the Abyssal Rift first appeared near Lindong, it had gathered a Demon Tide of the fourth layer, and the main force that exterminated the Demon Tide wasn’t the Awakeners but the Lindong military, relying on missiles, cannons, and tanks to kill the Demonized Beasts on a large scale.
But now, there is no military.
Their expressions gradually turned bitter.
Chen Feng encouraged them, “The Demon Tide hasn’t reached here yet and you’ve already lost your will to fight. What right do you have to call yourselves Awakeners? Is this not a desperate situation? Can’t we carve a path of survival out of despair! Today is different from the past. Our strength has greatly improved. Although Green Shadow has no missiles or tanks, Green Shadow has towers that can kill Demonized Beasts and its own secret weapons!”
“We are not without hope, but if you give up on yourselves, then there truly is no chance at all!”
“Think about yourselves, think about our journey from the onset of the apocalypse, all the dangers we’ve faced. Aren’t we Awakeners the very ones who forge a path of hope out of despair!”
Chen Feng’s words rang out powerfully.
Many Awakeners, although still feeling that hope was slim, no longer lost their will to fight, determined to battle until the last moment!
Bang, bang, bang. ƒreewebɳovel.com
A metallic torrent marched out from the depths of the Sanctuary.
Not tanks, but warrior Puppets, armed with swords and guns, forming squares, moving in unison.
The east wind blows, and the war drums beat.
Yes, though we have no missiles or tanks, we have Puppets, we have towers. A mere fourth-layer Demon Tide, what can it do to us!
Two hundred members of the Patrol Team, dressed in combat uniforms, also arrived at the entrance, each filled with the will to fight, their eyes gazing into the distance.
Buzz—
An invisible wave spread out from within the Sanctuary.
Someone turned their head to look, but their gaze suddenly fell on the area above the commercial district.
In midair, there was a figure, as if stepping on an invisible staircase, advancing step by step.
Though the movements seemed slow, each step covered at least tens of meters.
The Awakeners widened their eyes.
It was Director Tang of Green Shadow!
