Chapter 305 -302 Catastrophe Level Demonized Beasts
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—
The Arrow Towers arranged on the wilderness were the first to contact the Demon Tide and began firing one after another.
Shadows, one after another, shot out from the firing ports at the top of the Arrow Towers.
Among the Demon Tide, some of the frontmost Demonized Beasts exploded into a cloud of blood mist under the tremendous force of the Rune Arrows.
Many Awakeners were seeing the Arrow Towers take action for the first time and were amazed by the power, only Boss Level fighters could see the black arrows being shot from the tops of the towers.
The Arrow Towers were undoubtedly very strong.
Each arrow could bloom a flower of blood within the Demon Tide.
However,
the base number of the Demon Tide was in the hundreds of thousands.
In a simultaneous volley, the ten-plus, several dozen Demonized Beasts that were killed, when facing the surging waves, weren’t even a splash.
Soon, the Demonized Beasts approached the Arrow Towers.
Gnashing, pouncing, hammering.
The material of the Arrow Towers was rather strong, Boss Level fighters had to spend a bit of time to destroy them… and that’s without needing to dodge the towers’ shots.
However, there were too many Demonized Beasts, with dozens or hundreds lunging at them; the black towers standing in the wilderness could not hold on for a few seconds before they collapsed thunderously.
The Demon Tide remained an oppressive dark mass, seemingly undiminished.
The Awakeners on the city walls fell silent.
Sometimes, quantity truly was overwhelming.
The surging Demon Tide gradually drew near, and the city’s defensive structures began to exert their might.
Even more densely packed arrows shot out, and bright red meteors spurted from cannon muzzles, falling upon the Demon Tide and blasting out gaps—quickly filled up by the ensuing wave of Demonized Beasts.
At this time,
in the distance within the Demon Tide, Demonized Beasts capable of long-range attacks were roaring, and a mixture of cyan-purple venom, sharp spikes, and bursts of flame thundered towards them, landing on the city walls as the Awakeners hastily dodged.
“Kill!”
Someone raised a sniper rifle, firing one shot after another without the need to aim.
Machine guns also opened fire, and the bodies of Demonized Beasts were torn asunder; the tough-skinned ones charged through the barrage only to be pierced through by spikes emerging from the ground.
Bodies, colorful blood, chunks of flesh littered the ground, and the thick scent of blood lingered above the city walls.
Finally,
Boom!
More and more Demonized Beasts slammed into the city walls, which trembled and swayed, but the thick stone walls remained intact.
“Hahaha, the wall’s intact, these beasts cannot harm us, kill them!!!”
The defenders on the walls let out a breath of relief, yelling louder and shooting with even more vigor.
Zhou Jianhong was assigned to a section of the wall with several of his team members, while the square-faced big man had left two days ago.
At this moment, Zhou Jianhong wasn’t using firearms but had taken up a War Bow, the bowstring pulled into a full moon.
With special wood for the bow and high-quality Demonization Beast sinew for the string, though not a rune weapon, it could withstand the force of a Boss Level fighter.
Zhou Jianhong chose the second-grade War Bow, and he aimed at a powerful Demonized Beast, released the bowstring, and the arrow flew out, blasting a bloody hole in the creature.
An immense surge of soul power radiated from the Demonized Beast’s body and was absorbed by him.
Zhou Jianhong showed a satisfied expression, seeking his next target, when suddenly his expression changed slightly. He rolled swiftly away as sparks flew from the ground tiles, and a deep red mantis-like Demonized Beast appeared where he had been standing.
“Kill!”
Without a trace of fear, he released his War Bow and drew the C-class Combat Saber—a third prize from the Martial Path Tournament—hung at his waist.
The brilliant Sword Light flashed and then disappeared; the deep red mantis was cloven in two, blood sprayed everywhere, and though Zhou Jianhong was splattered with it, he seemed to hardly notice. He sheathed his Combat Saber, picked up his War Bow, and resumed seeking his next target.
This was just a microcosm.
Fierce battles erupted on every section of the city wall.
The second layer of the city wall was very tall, and most demonized beasts could not leap over it. However, the pile of corpses beneath the wall was also growing higher, allowing some of the more agile demonized beasts, and even flying demonized beasts, to easily pounce onto the wall… Fortunately, every Awakener defending the city was no weakling. As the battle drums thundered, their courage amplified, their strength amplified, their speed amplified… Each Awakener unleashed two hundred percent of their combat power.
Though there were casualties among the Awakeners, all this was still within expectations.
The number of demonized beasts was also rapidly dwindling.
Tang Yu let out a sigh of relief and walked down the city wall.
He thought his job here should be done.
Then a thought struck him, and his gaze turned sharp as he walked into the commercial district.
After several twists and turns, he arrived at an open space. At this moment, about a dozen Awakeners were squatting on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs, while members of the three Patrol Teams were keeping watch over them.
Eileen was also present, “These are the ones who caused trouble amidst the chaos, committing theft, spreading rumors, and so on…”
Leaving behind a hundred members of the Patrol Team was meant to deal with some Awakeners who took desperate risks. Whether or not they were spies sent by other powers, it no longer mattered at this point.
Tang Yu’s eyes settled on a bald Awakener who had been singled out, the reason for his visit.
Eileen nodded at him, “He has the same aura as those few, but he is somewhat stronger.”
Tang Yu walked up to the bald man, his gaze lingering on the brownish fuzz growing on the man’s arms.
From the aura he sensed, the bald man was at the third layer of Awakening, and according to Eileen’s words, this man’s combat power was significantly stronger than that of an average boss.
“The Demon Tide was brought here by you, wasn’t it?”
The bald man’s pupils shrank suddenly, and he shook his head repeatedly, “Not me, I didn’t, don’t talk nonsense.”
Tang Yu took out an Image Retention Crystal and activated it. A three-dimensional scene from Laboratory One came into view, including the bald skinny man who was now nothing but skin and bones, displayed in 360 degrees with no dead angles to the bald man.
“I’ll give you another chance, or you could end up like this.”
Beastification Soldier number eight shuddered violently; he recognized the person on the display. Number thirty-three… God knows what he had been through to end up like that.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
More terrifying than the doctor himself.
Yet…
“It really wasn’t me,” pleaded number eight with a mournful face, “Wait, wait, let me finish… We did plan to lure the Demon Tide to attack the Sanctuary, but during the luring, something unexpected happened. Suddenly, an endless number of demonized beasts appeared out of nowhere. I guess… I guess an Abyssal Rift suddenly opened.”
While trembling, number eight continued, “I’m not lying, truly, with our strength, it wouldn’t be possible to attract so many demonized beasts, and normally… demonized beasts don’t attack us. But this time, we encountered an extremely terrifying demonized beast. With one bite, it ate my companions.”
“I was trying to escape the Demon Tide, I had no choice but to hide here.”
Number eight was truly on the verge of tears.
If it weren’t for yet another unexpected event, he would probably be in the Underground Research Institute right now, reporting back to the doctor.
…
…
Above the city wall,
The shouts of killing echoed like thunder.
“Ha ha ha, their soul power, all mine!”
“Kill! Fight for a breakthrough to Boss Level!”
“Da da da da da da—”
Boom!!!!!!!
A giant boulder fell from the sky, crushing several Awakeners who could not dodge in time into a bloody pulp.
Someone, trembling, pointed into the distance, “That… What is that!”
There stood a humanoid giant, towering over fifty meters tall, naked, with bulging muscles.
It stood amidst the Demon Tide, visible at the horizon, where other gigantic demonized beasts seemed absolutely tiny at its feet. freewebnσvel.cѳm
The giant, like a Demon God, plunged its massive hands into a mound of earth below. With one exert, it uprooted the entire mound, lifted it high above with both arms, and then threw it fiercely.
Like a meteor falling to earth.
The entire black city wall trembled as intricate rune patterns on its surface flickered in and out of visibility, constantly shimmering.
The deputy standing on the city wall had unconsciously let his hands fall, his mouth slightly open, his expression bitter, “That is… a Catastrophe Level demonized beast, and… there’s more than one!”
