Chapter 422 Then I Will Go This Time
The date of the beast horde is getting closer and closer, and the entire Xiangyang City is filled with a very tense atmosphere. Usually, there are no special circumstances, and the people usually stay behind closed doors at home.
This is not the first time that Xiangyang City has experienced a beast tide. The so-called beast tide refers to groups of monsters attacking. Because there are too many monsters, they are connected together like a rolling wave, so It will be described as a beast tide.
And Ye Shaoming had already sent the child to the Linglong Tower in advance. After all, he might have to deal with the beast hordes that might come at any time. At that time, he might not have the energy to keep an eye on the child all the time. He promised Li Jing that he would go all out to deal with this beast tide.
"What was the previous animal horde like?" Ye Shaoming asked Li Jing, knowing more about how to deal with it.
"The beast tide in previous years was a group of monsters attacking collectively, and then so many people fought together on the city wall. As long as you resist those monsters and don't let them enter the city, as long as the time is up, those monsters will naturally I'm going back." Li Jing said, the sadness of Tan Tan revealed between his brows.
Although it seems to be an understatement, only those who have really participated in the experience will know how shocking and miserable the scene was. Many spiritual warriors lost their lives there, and they were using their lives to protect Xiangyang. of the city.
"I will leave when I see you? Then why did the monsters come to attack Xiangyang City in groups?" Ye Shaoming frowned slightly, a little puzzled.
There is still a time limit for this monster to attack Xiangyang City. It is impossible just because of idleness, so let’s see who can attack Xiangyang City within the specified time, or who kills more humans. If so, then It really hurts to be idle.
Li Jing shook his head and continued: "I also sent people to investigate this later, but the results of the investigation were not satisfactory. No one knew why those monsters came to attack Xiangyang City. Beast swarms come every few years or even decades, so the real reason is still a mystery. This time the interval is relatively short, and it is only a short time since the last beast swarm. Nine years."
There is no reason, no reason can be found, and there is a time limit. Ye Shaoming really can't think of any kind of motive for such a beast tide, and the monsters are no better than spirit beasts, and they have not activated their intelligence, so their IQ is extremely high. Low, if there is no command, it is absolutely impossible to attack the city so recklessly.
Moreover, these monsters generally live in the forest. Although Xiangyang City is close to the edge of the forest, it is at least a dozen miles away from there. There is a big contradiction between beasts, and this contradiction also makes monsters come to attack human cities regardless of running for more than ten miles.
"How long does the beast tide usually last?" Ye Shaoming continued to ask.
"Five days, up to seven days, as long as you hold on to this period of time, Xiangyang City will be safe." Li Jing continued, this is the law that is calculated by the usual animal swarms, but this time the animal swarm is significantly earlier than the last time, and it is also I don't know if it will change.
The beast horde came very suddenly. In the early hours of the night, there was a whistle sound from the city gate. It was an alarm sent by the people patrolling the city gate.
Every night, there will be a team patrolling the city gate, so that they can find the herd of beasts at the first time and report the news.
Because the beast tide may come at any time, in order to call everyone to guard as soon as possible, so not long ago, all the spirit warriors basically gathered in the city lord's mansion, so the news came from the city gate. After the alarm, everyone rushed to Xiangyang City Gate immediately.
Ye Shaoming also followed Li Jing to the highest point of the city gate. Although he hadn't seen the herd of beasts specifically, the puffs of dust rising not far away and the deafening footsteps were enough to show that How big and how many monster beasts are running over here.
The herd of beasts quickly moved towards Xiangyang City. First, they saw a whole piece of dust flying, and then slowly saw the leading monsters in front. Then, further back, and closer, there was a large densely packed area of beasts. The group, like thousands of troops, rushed towards this side with great momentum. Even a person who does not have trypophobia may feel timid.
Among the spirit warriors recruited this time, some have experienced the beast tide before, and some are experiencing it for the first time, but no matter whether it is experienced or the first time, when they really see the beast tide, they still They were involuntarily taken aback, and it took a long time to recover from the shock, and some people even thought of retreating instantly.
Originally, everyone was still complacent about the large number of recruits this time, and they were very confident, thinking that they could completely resist these herds of beasts, but now all that was left was fear and worry.
"My friends, those are just monsters. Only if we work together, as long as we hold the first line of defense here and prevent those monsters from entering, we will win. We will definitely last for five days!" Li Jing said. The voice was thick and loud enough for everyone present to hear it, and it also made people feel very at ease. The hearts of worries and fears were gradually soothed in such voices, and morale was greatly boosted for a while.
"Protect Xiangyang City, thigh monsters!" Someone suddenly yelled in the crowd, which immediately aroused everyone's approval!
"Protect Xiangyang City, beat back the monsters!" Everyone said in unison, the effect was really unrealistic, at least on the surface everyone was eager to try, and they were no longer so afraid.
Ye Shaoming looked at Li Jing beside him, looked at the people below, and couldn't help laughing. He really deserves to be a person who can become the lord of the city. Such courage and appeal are indeed very suitable for being a leader. In addition, he is wholeheartedly dedicated to Xiangyang The people of the city have won the hearts of the people, and it is impossible not to be re-elected as the city lord.
At the moment when everyone's morale was boosted, the monsters had already attacked the city, and everyone didn't go down to fight the monsters head-on. Nonsense, everyone is not an iron wall, and going down is simply asking for death.
Everyone stood on the city wall, as long as any monsters tried to jump on the city wall, they would be beheaded without hesitation. The scene was still very tragic, especially since these people's morale had just been boosted. When the intention is strong, killing those monsters will spare no effort, not to mention killing monsters can also gain spiritual power points. Although these spiritual power points increase slowly for their cultivation, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, which is better than nothing. Well.
Ye Shaoming didn't make a move in a hurry, but planned to watch the battle from above, and it would be best if he could find a breakthrough or something.
The spirits below first fought on their own, and gradually, everyone released their contracted beasts. Most of the contracted beasts were holy beasts, and their level was not low. Many people's contracted beasts were divine beasts. Transformed, but its strength should not be underestimated.
The level of holy beasts and divine beasts is much higher than that of monsters. In the world of contracted beasts, the division of levels is stricter than that of humans. The coercion emanating from these holy beasts and divine beasts alone is enough for these monsters After drinking a pot, they can't stand up straight, let alone continue to attack.
In normal times, when monsters sensed the aura of holy beasts or divine beasts, they would have been able to avoid them as far as they could. After all, there was too much difference in level. In front of holy beasts, monsters were simply courting death.
But Ye Shaoming found that although the monsters here also have the intention to retreat, their eyes are very hazy, as if they are struggling for something. The beasts rushed forward wave after wave.
Although human beings have high-level contracted beasts, but there are too many monsters, and there are many beasts who are desperate. For a while, both sides are caught in a battle.
"Brother Ye, what do you think of these monsters?" Li Jing said to Ye Shaoming while watching the battle ahead.
Ye Shaoming thought for a while, and then said: "I think these monsters should have received some instructions to behave like this. Maybe there is a strong leader among these monsters, otherwise these monsters will definitely not Will take the initiative to attack the human city."
In fact, what Ye Shaoming said was relatively conservative, a strong leader?Maybe more than one.
"Well, I have guessed what you said before and sent people to check, but there are too many monsters, it is not easy to find the leader, and if you go out directly, your life will be in danger. I was threatened, and none of the people I sent out before have returned." Li Jing said, feeling sad along with melancholy, for those who had sacrificed to protect Xiangyang City.
It's not that he didn't think about finding the leader and beheading him, so that maybe these monsters would retreat, but it was always easier said than done.
Ye Shaoming looked at the dark monsters that were still rushing forward, and he couldn't see the end at a glance. It was really not easy to find the powerful leader among them.
However, since he has promised to completely solve this beast horde, he will naturally not back down.
"Then let me go this time." Ye Shaoming volunteered.
"Are you going to find the leading contracted beast who doesn't know where it is?" Li Jing was a little surprised. After all, almost none of the people sent out in the past few times survived, and no one volunteered after that.
"En." Ye Shaoming responded lightly.
"Then you have to be careful." Li Jing knew that someone would have to do this kind of thing, and he couldn't be persuaded, so he had to agree, and instructed him carefully.
