Chapter 278: A Grand Army of A Million Monster!

“Roar!!!”

As the Mountain Giant King neared Cold Desolate Dragon City, to the northeast, a ferocious army walked out of the Lake of Death. This monster army was even more terrifying than the monsters led by the Mountain Giant King. They were all water creatures of the Lake of Death. Their looks were extremely strange, completely beyond the imagination of the players.

When the live-stream switched over, many viewers felt uncomfortable.

The monsters were all strange in appearance. Some had tentacles on their heads, some had lumps of flesh on their skin, and some were twisted and limping on the ground. Their appearance was even stranger than the strange creatures in the movies. They were also covered in mucus, and they looked disgusting.

“Wow, are all these things in the Lake of Death?”

“The monster’s beard is actually an octopus beard. Looking at the suction cups, my phobia is acting up.”

“How disgusting. Shouldn’t the water dwellers be mermaids? Why are they so ugly?”

“It’s probably because the environment is too dark that they grow up casually…”

“I’m going to vomit. Not only are these monsters astonishingly ugly, but their numbers are also astonishing. Looks like they’re not inferior to the Mountain Giant King’s army.”

“An army of a million appearing in both directions at the same time, how can we fight?”

Looking at the army of monsters in the Lake of Death, the players felt helpless.

In their eyes, there was no room for resistance in this war. Facing these incomparably powerful monsters, other than instantly collapsing, there was no other possibility for the huge and unreal city of the Cold Desolate Dragon City.

Some players in the Cold Desolate Dragon City had even taken out return scrolls, preparing to return to the safest Iron Skull City.

…

Ding!

“Your city [Cold Desolate Dragon City] is about to face a monster invasion. Please immediately send the guards to battle!”

Lorne sat in the fortress on the city wall and looked at the distant mountain range. That was where the Mountain Giant King was attacking. There were already sounds coming from there, and it seemed that the monsters would reach here in a short time.

At that moment, a notification appeared in front of Lorne.

Ding!

“Commander of the Iron Skull City Army, Rhett, requests to assist Cold Desolate Dragon City in the defense of the city. Do you agree?”

Rhett wanted to help?

Lorne was surprised and quickly decided.

Soon, a portion of the city guards stood on the city wall. Lorne arrived beside Rhett to check on them.

“Didn’t you say that Iron Skull City would not participate in the battle of Cold Desolate Dragon City? Why did Commander Rhett still choose to join with his men?” Lorne asked casually.

“As the city guards of Iron Skull City, our only duty is to protect the safety of Iron Skull City. Under normal circumstances, we are not allowed to participate in other forces’ wars, but…”

Rhett said in a low voice, “Cold Desolate Dragon City has an extraordinary meaning to Iron Skull City. Its existence has greatly affected the subsequent layout of Iron Skull City on the battlefield. After consideration from City Lord Ansare, you have decided to let me send a portion of the city guards to help you defend, but there are some things that I have to say in advance. We will help you defend, but if there is a situation where you can’t be saved, I will very likely prioritize the army. When I think you can’t resist, we will directly retreat. I hope you can understand our actions.”

“Of course.”

Lorne smiled and nodded, “Cold Desolate Dragon City is very grateful that Iron Skull City has chosen to provide us with some help. No matter how much support you provide, we will remember it.”

Rhett nodded, then waved his sword and said, “All city guards, build a defensive formation with the city wall and resist the attacks of the monsters with all your might!!!”

With that, a large group of city guards quickly arrived.

The help that Iron Skull City had provided to Cold Desolate Dragon City this time was less than 10,000 people. Moreover, these 10,000 people could leave the battlefield at any moment, so he should not have too much hope in them.

…

Boom!

As the Mountain Giant King neared, the entire Cold Desolate Dragon City trembled. This Boss was too huge and its entire body was made of hard rocks. Its weight was hard to estimate.

Around it, there were more than a million monsters gathered. Most of the monsters were around Level 40. To the current players, this was not a level that they could not resist.

However, the only thing to worry about was the Boss’s level!

If the other party’s level exceeded 50, the entire battle would be lost.

Looking at the army of monsters in the distance, Lorne could not help but be a little nervous. The appearance of this Boss was too terrifying. It looked as huge as the Two-Headed Crocodile Dragon he had seen in the Lake of Death. After all, the Two-Headed Crocodile Dragon was a Level 100 Boss!

This guy could not be a Level 100 Boss, or else things would be troublesome.

Moreover, there were so many monsters that there was no way to leave the city to fight. They had to wait for the other party to reach the city. Otherwise, if they rushed into the sea of monsters, Aisha would not be able to protect Lorne.

However, the problem was that letting the monsters directly rush to the bottom of the city wall had a huge impact on the Cold Desolate Dragon City.

“Aisha, in the battle later, deal with that Boss first. After killing it, return immediately. Don’t worry about the other monsters for the time being.”

Lorne opened the map of the Cold Desolate Dragon City and found a large number of monsters in the northwest and northeast directions. Moreover, among these monsters was a huge Boss that could deal immense damage to the city wall.

In order to ensure the safety of the city wall of the Cold Desolate Dragon City, Aisha had to deal with these two Bosses first.

“Yes, Master.”

Aisha wore a red cloak. Her slender figure was so thin in the huge city wall, but on this battlefield, she was the key to determining if she could win the battle.

While the two were discussing their strategy, a short monster had already arrived near the city wall.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, I smell humans. What an impulsive smell…”

The demon ghost let out a sharp roar and finally waved its sharp claws, roaring, “Charge! Destroy this city and kill all the humans inside!!”

As soon as it finished speaking, countless monsters rushed towards the Cold Desolate Dragon City.

These monsters had no strategy.

Before the monster could get close, the pets beside Lorne drew their bows, and dozens of bows and arrows were scattered below the city wall.

-1205

-1252

-1267

-1221

Small Artillery had a longer range than the players, and when these arrows hit the monsters, a pile of high damage values immediately appeared.
