If the monsters in the Beast Tide were raised to the level of Special Generals, it would be devastating if the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Town was not taken into consideration. Even Yang Rui himself was no match for the monsters, let alone the NPCs on the upper levels of the Animal Arena. ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲.
The number of monsters in the Beast Tide was already very large. With the strength of all Special Generals, the monsters were almost invincible and could sweep through everything.
Fortunately, there was still the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation. Although the special-class general-level monsters were powerful, they still couldn't see through the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation. Even if the monster commanders could roughly sense the situation of the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, they couldn't pass through the formation to command and transmit information.
Under such circumstances, the monsters in the Beast Tide could not even unleash 10% of their strength. However, the NPCs on the Death Island and Yang Rui's troops had a much harder time killing the monsters.
Even so, in the last round of the Beast Tide defense, they were still surrounded by danger. Yang Rui's defense at the base of the Colosseum was a little better. It was just that he had to spend a lot of time and effort to eliminate the Level 1 Historical Generals and Chieftains. As for the rest of the monsters, they had to drag it out a little longer.
On the other hand, the NPCs on the upper levels of the Animal Arena's defense had encountered a big problem. Above them were all flying monsters. On one hand, it was already difficult to lock onto them. On the other hand, the flying monsters' attack power had been greatly increased. The difficulty of defending against them had more than doubled.
Furthermore, the flying beasts flew high up in the sky. There was a fundamental difference between their defense and that of the base monsters. If the base monsters attacked a surface, they needed to defend a three-dimensional space in the sky. It was not very obvious when the monster's level was low, but as the monster's strength increased, the difference would be obvious. As the monsters' strength increased, the difference became more and more obvious.
At the same time, the flying monsters would also blindly dive into the Animal Arena from time to time. Although the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Formation interfered with their vision and senses, the NPCs did not have a general commander. However, without a capable general to guard the core of the formation, the NPCs would suffer some losses from time to time.
Such losses were very obvious after the monsters' strength reached the level of Advanced Generals. Before the third Beast Tide occurred, the NPCs on the Death Island had already lost half of their numbers. When the strength of the monsters in the third Beast Tide suddenly increased, the number of NPCs that died also continued to increase.
This continued until midnight, when Yang Rui's troops wiped out all the monsters in the base level and went to the upper levels of the Animal Arena to provide reinforcements. The number of NPCs on Death Island was now less than half of what it was initially. Moreover, many of them were injured and had more or less lost some of their combat strength.
"Thank you, Lord Blazing Sun, for your assistance. Otherwise, our losses would have been even worse, and we might not have been able to hold on in the end," the third elder thanked Yang Rui.
More than two hours into the night, with the support of Yang Rui's large number of archers and soldiers, the aerial monsters in the air above the Bestial Battle Arena were finally wiped out.
Yang Rui didn't have much to offer when it came to aerial combat. He only brought 20000 long-range archers with him, all of whom were Sixth Grade. They were enough to threaten the birds in the air, as well as the tanks and tanks. It was very difficult to deal any damage to the Terrors, and there was even the possibility of friendly fire!
Furthermore, the danger of aerial defense was incomparable to before. For this reason, Yang Rui assigned two Fourth Grade Yellow Turban Soldiers to each of the long-range archers. They held large shields in their hands like clams, protecting the archers in the middle. Once something abnormal happened, the two 'clam shells' would close, and this would be used to deal with the attacks of the birds.
Even with careful arrangements, some losses were unavoidable. Among them, the Yellow Turban Soldiers had suffered quite a number of casualties. Although they all held large shields, when faced with the attacks of special-class monsters, it was still difficult for them to defend. Even the Sixth Grade archers who were heavily protected were injured.
The slightly advantageous situation was that these soldiers could gather together when defending against aerial attacks. Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and Xu You would provide support with area of effect skills, which would be of great help to the soldiers' defense and recovery.
Under such circumstances, the third wave was delayed until two hours into the night. It was obvious how difficult it was to defend.
"Today's defense is over, but we have suffered heavy losses. I'm afraid that tomorrow's beast tide will be even more difficult to defend against.
Unless Lord Blazing Sun's subordinates can set up an even more powerful formation, it is only a matter of time before the defense of the Colosseum falls. "
The three NPC elders did not finish their words. After expressing their gratitude, they also raised their concerns.
Just as the three NPC elders had said, even if they did not mention it themselves, Yang Rui could see very clearly that the defense of the beast tide was going to be even more difficult. Perhaps one day, the higher-ups of the NPC forces would be the first to fall!
"Everyone, please be patient for now. Arrange for the people to rest and reorganize. I will first discuss the countermeasures with the military advisor. I will naturally consider the matter of setting up the formation in detail. After that, I will discuss it with the elders and the leaders of the civilizations."
Yang Rui nodded and agreed to the three elders' request. After that, he comforted the three of them with a few words, gathered his troops, and entered the Sky Castle.
"Mr. Guo Jia, these are the six crystal cores we obtained today. Five of them satisfy the five elements, and the remaining one is a wood-element crystal core. Based on our current response to the beast tide, we have reached the most critical moment. Therefore, Mr. Guo Jia, why don't you try to set up the ancient teleportation formation tonight?
If you succeed, we will retreat. If you don't, we have to be prepared to cut off all means of retreat! What do you think, Mr. Guo Jia? "
Yang Rui gathered all his troops in the Sky Castle. The first thing he wanted to discuss was actually about the ancient teleportation formation. When the strength of the monsters in the third wave of the beast tide suddenly increased, Yang Rui immediately thought of this point.
"Lord Prefecture Overseer is right. Guo Jia thinks so too!"
What Yang Rui did not expect was that as soon as he said that, Guo Jia agreed almost without any discussion. Clearly, he also recognized the crisis of the current defense against the beast tide.
"It will take about six hours to set up the ancient teleportation formation. I will start preparing for this, but the final success rate will not exceed 30%. Please forgive Guo Jia for being incompetent.
At the same time, the ancient teleportation formation will need to be set up with the help of the Colosseum. Please prepare 10000 people to assist Guo Jia. "
Guo Jia hesitated for a moment before saying something else, stating that the success rate of setting up the ancient teleportation formation was less than 30%.
However, this gave Yang Rui a boost of energy. Originally, Guo Jia had not succeeded in setting up the simplest ancient teleportation formation using crystal cores, so Yang Rui thought that setting up an ancient teleportation formation would definitely have a lower success rate.
At this moment, Guo Jia, who had always been cautious, reported a 30% success rate. This also gave Yang Rui a lot more confidence in the success of setting up the formation.
"Mr. Guo Jia, you just have to do your best. Even if you don't succeed, why would I blame you? Hahaha!
From now on, each of you will eat and cultivate for an hour. After an hour, transfer 10000 skilled craftsmen from the Sky City to assist Mr. Guo Jia in setting up the ancient teleportation formation. Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Xu You, and I will each lead troops to guard the arched door of the Colosseum and be responsible for protecting Guo Jia when setting up the formation! "
After clearly stating his attitude, Yang Rui mobilized the manpower to assist Guo Jia in setting up the formation. He, Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, and Xu You were not idle either. They each led troops to be responsible for the defense around the Colosseum.
At this time, it was already close to midnight, and Guo Jia would need at least six hours to set up the ancient teleportation formation. Time was actually very tight, so Yang Rui immediately issued a series of instructions to assist Guo Jia in setting up the formation.
After settling everything, Yang Rui once again left the Sky City and was about to go to the NPC Three Founding Elders to inform them. However, as soon as he left the Sky City, he ran into a player from the Greek civilization — Wick.
As the defense of the Beast Tide had really involved a lot of energy in recent days, Yang Rui almost did not pay much attention to this player, Wick, but now he met him again.
"Hey, Blazing Sun, my friend, thank you so much for the past few days. I've gotten a lot of EXP and points from following your troops! But it seems that we still have a lot of trouble ahead! "
Wick seemed to be waiting for Yang Rui under the Sky City. As soon as Yang Rui appeared, Wick greeted him enthusiastically and waved the longbow on his back, frankly indicating that he had benefited a lot from Yang Rui.
"Oh, Wick, I have something to tell you. I'll try to set up a formation tonight. If it succeeds, we can teleport away from Death Island. I wonder if you're interested in joining me? Hahaha! "
Yang Rui already knew a little about this player, Wick. Although the two of them could be regarded as enemies, Yang Rui had a good impression of him. Therefore, he informed Wick of his plan in advance, even though he was not very confident about it.
Wick, of course, happily agreed to go with Yang Rui and once again thanked Yang Rui for his invitation.
Due to time constraints, Yang Rui chatted for a while before heading to the NPC Three Founding Elders. His purpose was also to inform the NPCs of his plan, including the three Founding Elders. However, he came with some conditions.
"Lord Anshihan the Wise, Lord Vonbliss the Wise, Lord Vonbliss the Wise, my condition is that if I can successfully bring all of you out of Death Island, all of your civilization's NPCs must acknowledge me as their master, or in your words, swear loyalty to me!"
After Yang Rui explained his plan to set up the Ancient Teleportation Circle and its possible effects to the three Founding Elders, he raised the condition of swearing loyalty. His purpose, of course, was to subdue these NPCs on Death Island. Floating Astronomy.
