At this time, everyone's strength could be seen. Some professions only had one layer of defensive rune armor, so they had to keep attacking the golden-shelled insects. Those who were more powerful did not care and used all kinds of real and illusory runes to kill the golden-shelled insects.
Guo Shier also rushed out a few steps. His eyes were filled with red, and he could not see the situation around him at all. The densely packed golden-shelled insects wrapped around him tightly, and a large amount of flames were sprayed at him. The Ancient Flame Sparrow's body suddenly stretched out until it was more than two meters long. It let out a sharp cry and shook off the golden-shelled insects that were pouncing on it.
The Ancient Flame Sparrow was very excited. This was the battlefield it liked. The high temperature around it increased its strength by at least 30%.
Guo Shier did not have time to continue to observe. With the Natal Rune Sword surrounding him, any golden-shelled insects that came close to him were cut down. He shouted, "Uncle Falconer, don't stand in front of me … come to my left!"
"Okay!" Falconer shouted. If they did not speak loudly here, they would not be able to hear it at all. The noisy squeaks and the crackling of the flames around them merged into a noisy noise.
Guo Shier made a hand sign and shouted, "Thousand Blades!"
With a flash of dazzling light, countless axes fell from the sky and cleared a large area ten meters in front of Guo Shi 'er in an instant. Then he made another hand sign, "Mountain Crush!"
The Giant Spirit Axe suddenly turned into a small mountain and smashed down. All the golden-shelled insects within ten square meters were killed. However, Guo Shier was not satisfied. He felt that the power of the Mountain Crush should be stronger, but he did not have time to think too much in a fight. He continued to control the Giant Spirit Axe to attack.
The Ancient Flame Sparrow had a long, sharp beak. Every time it attacked, the long beak would make a rapid tremble, and every time it moved, a golden-shelled insect would be pierced. While it was killing, it was also desperately absorbing the souls of the dead golden-shelled insects on the ground. The Ancient Flame Sparrow's wings flickered slightly, and talisman shadows fell down, dragging the souls that had not dissipated into its body.
After about four minutes, everyone felt that it was too much. Xu Yan shouted, "Retreat into the defensive array glyphs!"
Guo Shier, Falconer, and Luo Zhan retreated together. But the three of them could still fight. After the other members of the group retreated into the defense array, Guo Shier and the others calmly retreated.
They lasted for five minutes. Then the third group attacked. Everyone's expressions were unsightly. The amount of time they could hold on was too short.
All the professionals found that it was very difficult to deal with the golden-shelled insects. They would be exhausted in just a few minutes. Xu Yan said, "Without the defense array, we cannot kill many golden-shelled insects.
Xu Yan said, "if we don't have backup … we won't be able to kill many golden-shelled insects.
Countless professionals were standing inside the defense rune arrays. They charged out wave after wave, trying to reduce the pressure on the defense rune arrays. Everyone knew that once the defense array collapsed, most people would not survive. Everyone knew everyone....
The three groups of professionals on Guo Shier's side took turns to attack. It had only been a few hours, but they were already exhausted.
Xu Yan said, "Martial Uncle Han, we can't continue. Five people are dead. Everyone is injured. We need reinforcements." Xu Yan said, "Martial Uncle Han, with just the few of us … it will be very difficult to continue. Five people have died here, almost everyone is injured, we need reinforcements!"
Han Yan said, "The reinforcements will be here soon. Everyone, hold on for another half an hour."
The defensive array glyphs emitted a series of shattering sounds that made one's scalp tingle. Han Yan said again, "Once the defense rune array is broken, retreat immediately … Hmm, a thousand meters away … There is a second defense rune array there, and it will be completed very soon. Let's try our best to buy as much time as possible."
The battle continued for another half an hour. During that time, Han Yan also led a group of experts to attack. They held on for a total of twelve minutes, leaving everyone dumbfounded. At the Great Saint Master level, their strength was indeed not ordinary.
When the reinforcements finally arrived, everyone couldn't help but feel disappointed. Although there were a lot of professionals, about three hundred of them, most of them were Master-level professionals. Only a few of them were Mad Masters. Han Yan ordered them to split into three groups. Each group had one hundred people. They were not allowed to fight alone. They had to join the first three groups.
Guo Shier's group had one hundred and ten professionals.
Each Saint Master and mad master was followed by ten Master level professionals. They did not need to fight at the front. They were only responsible for clearing the golden-shelled insects in front of them.
Guo Shier smiled bitterly in his heart. Master-ranked professionals could only do some auxiliary work in the Sects of high-rank continents. If it weren't for the shortage of manpower, these Masters wouldn't even need to go to the front line. But in the Northern Fu Men, a master was a top level professional. They could call the wind and summon the rain in the sect. They could establish a family.
However, after this battle, Guo Shier had a new discovery. The masters of high level continents were not as strong as the masters of the Northern Fu Men. They were at least one or two levels lower. The masters of the Northern Fu Men were not only experienced in fighting, but they were also more tenacious. These noobs could not be compared to them.
After two rounds of fighting, Guo Shier's group had lost more than ten masters. Two of them died in the swarm of insects. One of them was rescued, but he also died ten minutes later. Nine people were heavily injured, and more than thirty people were lightly injured.
Guo Shier's group was responsible for clearing the edges of the defense array. It was the part that was in contact with the ground. It was filled with low level golden-shelled insects. The higher level golden-shelled insects were at the top, so the bottom was relatively safer. The top was the main battlefield. It was fought by Great Saint Masters and above.
So far, there were no golden-shelled insects higher than level 5 in the swarm of insects. Most of them were level 2 to 4. All the golden-shelled insects above level 5 flew into the air and started to attack the defense array.
There were hundreds of flying cars in the sky. Each car had a Great Saint Master and a few Saint Masters working with them. They swept back and forth to disperse the group of golden-shelled insects, reducing their attack power.
After half a day, the Fire School had mobilized all the masters and above to barely keep the defense array from being destroyed. However, at this point, everyone understood in their hearts that the defensive array glyphs could not hold on for much longer. So far, the truly powerful golden-shelled insects had not appeared. The true experts of the Fire School had not appeared either. The two sides were in a stalemate.
After fighting again and again, there were very few people who were not injured. Gradually, Guo Shier's group of three began to show their strength. Even now, their attacks were still very sharp. The most enviable thing was that the three of them were not injured. After a day of fighting, even someone as strong as Xu Yan was only slightly injured. Only four people were unharmed. Other than Guo Shier's group of three, the other one was Lu Yiding from the Thousand Ice Continent. He was protected by an ice bear, so he was not injured at all.
Later on, the three hundred masters who came to support retreated. Almost all of them were injured. Among them, more than thirty were seriously injured, and fourteen were dead. Han Yan ordered them all to return to the inner sect to rest.
The number of people decreased as time went on. Even the team led by Xu Yan only had seven people left. Three of them were injured and returned to receive treatment. Guo Shier looked at the talisman. According to the records, he had killed more than eight thousand golden-shelled insects. The Ancient Flame Bird had absorbed a large amount of golden-shelled insect souls and was on the verge of breaking through.
Guo Shier did not dare to release the Darkwing Magic Scorpion. If there were only a few dozen golden-shelled insects, he would dare to release the Darkwing Magic Scorpion to fight. But facing thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of golden-shelled insects, he would not let the Darkwing Magic Scorpion out no matter how brave he was. If it was killed a few times in a row, the Darkwing Magic Scorpion's strength would be greatly reduced. So he could only use the Ancient Flame Bird. This thing was born from fire, so it was not afraid of the golden-shelled insects.
In the evening, Han Yan ordered everyone to retreat to the second line of defense. The first line of defense array could not hold on any longer.
It had to be said that the Fire Sect's execution ability was very strong. With a single order, all the professionals fighting on the front line retreated at the same time. The flying cars fighting in the air also quickly retreated.
In less than ten minutes, the first line of defense was empty.
Han Yan led a large group of people to the second line of defense. He smiled and said, "Everyone can watch a good show."
Crack! Crack!
A burst of strange sounds came, like a porcelain bottle gradually cracking under pressure. Suddenly, the entire defense array emitted a dazzling light.
Boom!
In an instant, the outer circle of the defensive light shield exploded. The design of the entire defense array was very fierce. When it could not hold on any longer, it would explode. Countless golden-shelled insects were blown to pieces. Especially those golden-shelled insects near the edge of the defense array, almost all of them were wiped out. At least hundreds of thousands of golden-shelled insects were killed by this attack.
Guo Shier was dumbfounded. After a while, he said, "How ruthless! This move is too beautiful! "
However, Han Yan sighed and said, "Not ruthless enough. Not to mention killing half, it didn't even reach one-fifth. What a pity …"
Rolling flames followed the wave of golden-shelled insects. The entire ground was burning. The flames rose up to a hundred meters high, and countless golden-shelled insects floated up and down.
In just a few minutes, the wave of flames mixed with countless golden-shelled insects surged to the second line of defense and crashed into the rune light shield. The professionals standing inside the defense array could not help but take a step back. The heat wave passed through the rune light shield and made it hard for them to breathe.
A shrill cry came from extremely far away, causing the ground to tremble slightly.
Han Yan's expression became serious. He said, "The really powerful guy is here!"
Guo Shier said, "Mutated big golden armor?"
"Hiss …"
Everyone could not help but gasp. They saw a huge golden armor slowly crawling over from afar. Its size was like a mountain. Although it was very slow, it was moving very firmly toward the defense array. Guo Shier could not help but fly up to see the mutated big golden armor.
Many people flew up as well. Standing on the ground, they could only see the armor's back. Flying up, they could see it clearly.
When Guo Shier saw it clearly, he was shocked. All the professionals in the air were also speechless. It was completely silent inside the defense array. They could only hear the rumbling footsteps outside and the sound of rising flames.
With every step that the mutated big golden armor took, a large amount of magma surged up from the ground. The ground behind it also gradually cracked open. A large amount of magma gushed out and formed a magma river behind it.
More than ten high-level mutated big golden armors flew around it. The lowest one was Level 11.
For the first time, Guo Shier had the thought of running away. He felt that this mutated big golden armor would be very difficult to resist. Perhaps only experts like Ba Mo and Li Ran would be able to deal with it.
Everyone's gaze fell on Han Yan. They all wanted to hear what he had to say.
