With the hard work of Zhuge Liang and a group of strategists, the rain clouds in the sky finally dispersed. The flood on the ground also flowed through the cracks created by the earthquake. This natural disaster was finally over.
On the plaza, there were cracks and puddles of water everywhere. The drenched soldiers lost a large number of their weapons and shields. Some of the people who were injured in the earthquake and flood were wailing in pain in the muddy water. Witnessing all this, Zhao Shiyi's face could not help but tremble.
The two days of the undead tide did not cause much damage to the defense of Jinling. Unexpectedly, the earthquake and flood directly destroyed the military formation.
Eleven legions and more than thirty thousand elite soldiers would not be able to display any combat strength before they could catch their breath and search for their weapons and equipment. The walls on both sides of the city gate had collapsed. Many defensive structures, including the archery towers, were destroyed …
Zhao Shiyi understood that the undead army would definitely take this opportunity to attack. This time, they would not send cannon fodder.
"It seems that fate is still very kind to the gods."
Two rolls of the dice. One caused a huge earthquake, and the other caused a rainstorm and flood. The defensive line of Jinling that the undead cannon fodder had not been able to break through collapsed under the natural disaster. This could be considered a lucky hit. Karsus was very satisfied.
Wu Yan and Su Mei understood that this was the best time for the undead to attack. They quickly led a group of evolvers away from the Shadow Island. On the island, there was a floating platform that looked like a white bone altar moving.
Karsus was very interested in the Chessboard of Fate. This god was deeply fascinated by the unpredictable unknown. He continued to roll the dice. At the same time, he used his divine power to guide the area of effect of the Chessboard to focus on the battlefield of Jinling City.
"The enemy is here!"
The ground began to tremble. It was not the previous earthquake. Instead, it was a large army charging from afar. It felt like there were tens of thousands of horses galloping.
When they got closer, they realized that it was not the high-level undead creatures that they had expected. Instead …
A herd of beasts?
There were elephants, giraffes, bison, and even zebras. They seemed to have come from a tropical jungle. A large black mass of animals rushed towards Jinling, especially the rhinoceros at the front. Its muscles bulged and were filled with explosive strength.
The beasts charged, their hooves trampling on the ground, making a "Dong Dong Dong" sound, like a heavy drum beating on the heart. Before the apocalypse, if such a herd of beasts appeared on the road, it would definitely cause a disaster.
However, a herd of beasts could not be compared to a natural disaster. Moreover, at the frontline of the battlefield in Jinling, there was a giant dragon acting as a barrier.
The golden dragons were summoned creatures, and the emerald dragons were zombies that had mutated from pollution. They had some instincts, and these dragons were already enraged by the previous torrential rain and flood. When they saw the horde of beasts rushing over, they immediately let out deafening roars and collided with the horde of beasts.
If the stampede of beasts was like a train, then the giant dragon was like a mountain. When the rhinoceroses at the very front collided with the giant dragon, blood immediately blossomed.
One by one, the beasts collided with the giant dragon in a frenzied manner. Then, they were sent flying with blood splattering everywhere. The charging horde of beasts was completely blocked by the ten mountains!
Zhao Shiyi, Zhuge Liang, and the others finally heaved a sigh of relief. It was only beasts.
They did not understand why a group of beasts would appear in the undead army. However, a mere herd of beasts had undoubtedly given Jinling a rare opportunity to take a breather. One by one, the generals quickly reorganized their troops. Some soldiers fell into the cracks and were crushed to death, but most were still alive.
A large number of frightened soldiers collected the fallen swords and shields. However, these fellows were still drenched. Under the corrosion of the cold death aura of the undead, their bodies were all cold and their faces were pale. For the time being, they couldn't fight anymore.
"Let the army return to the city to reorganize and recuperate."
A few strategists suggested to Zhao Shiyi.
"However, once the eleven armies retreat, Jinling will be almost defenseless …"
"These thirty thousand people are the foundation of Jinling. If the undead army attacks in this state, how can we resist? The loss is too great! "
The strategists' suggestions made Zhao Shiyi make a decision. He discussed it with Zhuge Liang and then ordered the eleven armies outside the city to return. At the same time, he ordered the generals to lead the fifty thousand reserve soldiers in the city to replace them.
The reserve soldiers were also made up of people who had changed jobs, but they were all below LV10. They could be called "recruits". Almost none of them had participated in the previous siege of the city.
These soldiers might be able to fight against zombies, skeletons, and ghouls, but they would definitely suffer heavy losses in the face of the high undead!
However, there was no time to think too much now. A natural disaster had completely disrupted Jinling's defense deployment.
"Damn it, the beasts are gone! If only it could last a little longer! " Zhao Shiyi cursed when he saw the beasts in the distance disappear. The flood and earthquake had affected part of the city. It would take time for the regular army of the eleven armies to evacuate and more than fifty thousand reserve soldiers to reorganize and depart.
Su Hongying saw that there was a large area of muddy water in the ruins of the city wall. Some posthumans were standing in the muddy water. She was a little displeased and urged her fire magic.
A scorching wind blew past, evaporating all the muddy water on the ground. It revealed the large pieces of rubble formed by the collapse of the city wall and the ground full of cracks after the earthquake.
"Mountain Lifting Power!"
The veins on Li Qi's forehead bulged. He used the power of the universe. The rubble in a large area began to rise into the sky under an invisible force. It gathered together to form a small mountain of rubble, and then it was moved to the open space in the distance.
The rubble from the collapse of the city wall was removed. Without the blockage, the army's retreat was much faster.
At this time, Chu Bawang inserted his hands into the ground. His "Titan's Power" was, of course, not only to increase his strength and change his body shape. He could use a small part of the Earth Titan's power. The earth trembled again. The earth and stones pressed against each other, and the cracks finally closed.
The square now looked very ugly with wrinkles, but at least it could barely allow the army to defend and fight on it.
"This is the power of a super expert!"
Zhuge Liang was a little emotional. Whether it was Li Jianren and Golden Armor before, or Li Qi and Chu Bawang now, their abilities were beyond imagination. Jian Zhi had the power of the legendary gods and immortals.
"What is that?"
Someone suddenly cried out in surprise.
Under the shadow of the sky, in the dim night, an extremely strong aura of death came from afar. In a misty black fog, there were countless bloodthirsty red, dark green, pale, and dark gray light spots.
That was —
The soul flames in the eye sockets of the undead.
"F * ck …" Lei Tianyun spat on the ground.
On a flying magic carpet next to him, Mage Zheng Hongyan felt cold all over. Compared to the figures in the shadow fog in the distance, the zombies with rotten flesh, skeletons, and ferocious ghouls seemed to have become cute.
They were also zombies, but they were bigger than ordinary zombies. Their rotten flesh was flowing with pus, and their bodies were surrounded by green gas. The poisonous zombies were obviously more dangerous than ordinary zombies!
They were also skeletons, but the equipment on their bodies were no longer tattered bone blades and bone shields. Instead, they were made of fine steel swords, fine iron shields, and thick bone armor. These skeleton warriors were the elites among skeletons.
Some skeletons without weapons or armor were surrounded by white, red, or blue lights. These were energy ripples.
Skeleton Mages!
There were puppets with flesh and blood inside their armor. There were stitched monsters with huge scars on their bodies. They were three to four meters tall, fat, and strong. They held a pair of corpse-dismembering broadswords in their deformed arms, and there was a bloody butcher's hand protruding from its shoulder: Abominations!
There was also a headless knight riding a skeleton warhorse, emitting a gloomy aura from under his armor. There was also an abnormally powerful lich wrapped in a black robe with a wooden staff in his hand, and his body was withered and rotten.
There was a bloodstained meat grinder with sharp blades, a pitch-black Ten Victories Stone Statue that looked like it was made of obsidian, and a gargoyle soaring in the sky …
The most eye-catching thing was undoubtedly the pale-white corpse balls that were pieced together by corpses. They looked like Corpse Grave Demons that were glued together by the dead. More than ten Corpse Grave Demons wriggled towards Jinling from the ground. Wherever they passed, even the undead that were in their way were sucked in.
"This army … is much more varied than the undead in Luzhou. Speaking of which, aren't Abominations, Meat Grinder, and Ten Victories Stone Statues the undead units in Warcraft? Why would they appear on Shadow Island! "
Lin Xi noticed that some of the undead were emitting a cold and deathly aura. They were especially powerful, and were clearly at the level of mini-bosses! For example, among the Skeleton Warriors, there were a few three-meter-tall Skeleton Warriors wearing fine steel armor instead of white bones. There were also zombies that emitted black instead of green, as if they were contagious sources.
Just like before, countless undead formed a black tide that surged towards Jinling.
"Oh my god!"
Seeing the approaching undead army, the evolved humans trembled. Previously, there were more than thirty thousand elite soldiers outside Jinling, and eleven battle formations acted as a barrier. Now, the army was retreating into the city, and before the fifty thousand reserve soldiers could set up battle formations, the undead had arrived.
"No, the earthquake and heavy rain have affected the city. The reserve soldiers can't be replaced without twenty to thirty minutes!"
"Where are the tanks and armored vehicles? Bring out the machine guns and cannons! "
In the previous battle to defend the city, they had used up a large number of bullets and cannons. There were not many left, and now was not the time to preserve their strength. Zhao Shiyi ordered the modern army and mutated army in Jinling to go out and fight.
However, it would also take time for these people to arrive at the battlefield.
"I'm counting on you all! We must hold them off before the army arrives! "
"Everyone, please use the summoning military counselor skills!"
Each of the eight old military counselors who used the Sky Change Spell with Zhuge Liang had mastered several military counselor skills.
These old men had activated their Martial Souls twice, and each of them was half-dead. However, facing the current situation, they had no choice but to activate the remaining skills in their bodies and began to summon units to stop the undead army from advancing.
"Arrow Tower Formation!"
Suddenly, six wooden archery towers appeared on the battlefield. Each archery tower had two archers, and they shot arrows at the undead.
Unfortunately, these ordinary arrows had no effect on the elite undead.
"Bronze Men Brigade!"
Three groups of tall bronze men appeared in the undead army, and immediately caused a commotion. A few Skeleton Warriors slashed at the bronze men, and sparks flew from their blades. Then, they were smashed into pieces by the bronze men's arms.
"Iron Chariot!"
"Chariot!"
The two old military counselors summoned the iron-wheeled chariot. The chariot rolled towards the undead, and the chariot directly crashed into them.
The remaining four old military counselors summoned artillery carriages that were equipped like the Pirates of the Caribbean smoothbore cannons, and fired iron ball cannons. Huge Sky Severing Crossbows shot arrows the size of houses, and blood rained down. There was also the Thunder Chariot, and the tiger-headed jet train that was disguised as an animal.
Although the various war machines were not very useful, their sudden appearance caused a certain amount of chaos. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xi used his consciousness to urge the ten giant dragons.
The Mist Dragon was now recovering in the Pokeball. The ten giant dragons were undoubtedly the biggest contributors to the defense of Jinling so far. Without these giant dragons, which were 15 to 20 meters long and could not be broken by the undead, as meat shields, the soldiers would have to risk their lives to block the undead tide.
One must know that each of these giant dragons was no weaker than the Red Dragon that Matthew had transformed into. In fact, they were even slightly stronger! Their evaluation could definitely reach A-, and they were definitely super strong!
The current undead army was made up of intermediate and high-level units, but unfortunately, they were still no match for the giant dragons.
Lin Xi saw a Corpse Grave Demon that was made up of thousands of corpses being hit by an emerald dragon. The violent impact caused the pile of corpses to explode. Countless corpses and broken limbs rained down, and corrosive pus and toxins burst out. However, the emerald dragon was invulnerable and almost immune to negative statuses, so it had no effect on it.
The golden dragon spat out golden breath, plowing through the undead. More than 30 undead units disappeared in the breath. A headless horseman rushed over and slashed at the giant dragon with a black sword. Although the demonic sword that carried the aura of death cut through the golden scales and left a wound on the dragon's skin, to the golden dragon, such an injury was equivalent to an ordinary person's skin being cut by a small knife.
Only when the sea was flowing could a hero be seen! Facing the current undead tide, the ten giant dragons still showed the effect of "Stabilizing Cauldron".
"How lucky!"
Zhao Shiyi looked at the giant dragons, and then looked at Lin Xi. Without this external aid, if they lacked the ten giant dragons, who knew what the outcome of today's war would be. Even if they spent millions of points from the evolution base to exchange for ten Zakus and trained ten pilots who could operate the robots, they would still be far inferior to these giant dragons!
The level of the undead units had increased, and the ten giant dragons were still wreaking havoc in the undead tide. Until a few giant tentacles broke through the ground, and the giant purple-black tentacles with octopus-like suction cups wrapped around two emerald dragons and a golden dragon that swooped down from the sky.
