Chapter 1408

1408 The merciless battlefield (1)

when the monsters reached the bottom of the building, the brutal battle would officially begin. at such a distance, the effectiveness of firearms would be greatly reduced, and they could only rely on bloody close combat to kill them.

At this moment, the city was surrounded by figures fighting against the monsters, using their flesh and blood to build an indestructible line of defense.

However, compared to the ferocious monsters, the awakened ones were still much weaker. As the monsters continued to attack, the number of awakened ones who fell increased.

“Someone help me, I can’t hold on much longer!”

A bare-chested brawny man let out a furious roar. He kept waving a large saber forged from spring steel in his hand, continuously hacking at the giant monster in front of him. The dull hacking sounds were endless.

On the ground beside him, the corpses of many awakened ones and monsters could be seen.

Due to the monster’s ferocity, the awakened ones who were fighting beside him had died one after another. At this moment, he was the only one left to face the monster, which was covered in wounds.

The monster that was attacked in succession roared and swept its huge hammer tail at the burly man, aiming for his head.

If he was hit by this hard hammer tail, even if the burly man’s head was made of iron, it would be smashed into pieces!

Seeing that the brawny man was in danger, a thin young man beside him roared and rushed to the front of the brawny man without hesitation. He used his body as a shield and blocked the fierce attack.

“Crack!”

With a muffled sound, the emaciated young man’s sternum was shattered. Blood spurted out of his mouth as he flew backward and fell to the ground.

“Hu Zi!”

The brawny man’s eyes were bloodshot as he roared in grief and indignation. He looked at his comrades who were like a pile of mud and went crazy.

“Damn monster, I’m going to tear you into pieces!”

With a roar, the brawny man waved the weapon in his hand and charged at the monster, vowing to avenge his brother.

Perhaps due to his anger, the brawny man’s body, which was covered in blood and minced meat, suddenly glowed with a red light, making the tattoos on his body come to life. At the same time, a fierce aura appeared.

“Go to hell!”

With another roar, the brawny man’s body flew up like a cannonball, and the weapon in his hand slashed at the monster’s neck.

“Pfft!”

As the monster wailed, its huge head fell from its neck. Under the Furious attacks of the burly man, only a trace of skin and flesh remained!

After staggering a few steps forward, the monster’s corpse fell to the ground with a loud crash, causing the awakened to cheer.

When they looked at the burly man, there was a hint of envy in their eyes. Clearly, the burly man had broken through the bottleneck and advanced to a higher level!

In the original world, they couldn’t do this no matter how hard they tried, but in the New World, they could easily do it.

While they were envious and jealous, the awakened also let loose. They knew that only by risking their lives and fighting could they obtain the opportunity to break through in such a special environment.

The brawny man did not have time to be excited. Instead, he rushed to the thin young man lying on the ground and looked at his companion, who was bleeding profusely, with tears in his eyes.

“Brother, let’s go!”

The brawny man wanted to say something, but he felt as if his throat was blocked. He was choked with sobs and couldn’t speak at all.

The emaciated young man’s eyes were unfocused. He tried to open his mouth as if he wanted to save the strong man, but his mouth was full of blood and he couldn’t make a sound.

“Brother, you can’t die, you can’t die!”

The brawny man roared like a madman. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Xiaomei, who was standing above the tower. He shouted with all his might, ” “Save my brother, please save my brother!”

Xiaomei coldly glanced at the burly man and turned her head to the side, completely ignoring him.

The brawny man shouted again, but unfortunately, on this noisy battlefield, his voice couldn’t travel far. Not to mention, it wasn’t just his companion who had died in battle, so no one paid attention to this place.

The brawny man was in despair, as if all his strength had been drained in an instant. He sat limply beside the thin young man, holding him in his arms and crying loudly.

Seeing the brother who had risked his life to save him slowly die in his arms, and yet he had no way to save him, this feeling was even more unbearable than the cruelest punishment.

Just as the brawny man was feeling hopeless, a young man’s voice suddenly sounded in his ear. Then, a stream of light flew across the sky, and an emerald green syringe fell into the brawny man’s hand.

give him this injection. Although it can’t cure his injuries, it can at least keep him alive for a while!

The brawny man was stunned for a moment. He turned to look at the syringe and saw a young man in purple-gold armor looking at him. It was obvious that he was the one who had given him the agent.

“Thank you, thank you!”

The brawny man was ecstatic. He knelt down and kowtowed to the young man without hesitation. Then, he opened the syringe and injected the drug into the thin young man’s body.

The emaciated young man’s body trembled a few times, and he spat out a large amount of black blood. However, his face suddenly became much rosier.

Seeing this, the burly man burst into tears of joy. He hugged the thin young man and did not let go, afraid that he would be stepped on by other awakened ones.

Just like that, the two of them sat on the chaotic battlefield. Even when there were monsters around them and awakened corpses all around them, they still refused to move like stone statues.

Upon seeing this, Tang Zhen, who had stopped in the air to watch the battle, turned his gaze towards the battlefield. The help he had given to the burly man was merely a casual act. As for the life and death of the other awakened ones, he did not care about them at all.

These awakened ones were not the residents of his building. Tang Zhen had no reason to interfere too much. He only needed to be a quiet spectator.

As time passed, the battle of the city defense began to come to an end.

When the city was first built, the number of monsters was not endless. As long as the residents of the city could hold on for a long time, the monsters would retreat.

There were tens of thousands of awakened ones. Naturally, the speed at which they killed the monsters was not slow. Under their all-out attacks, the speed at which the monsters appeared from the door of light gradually could not keep up with the speed at which they were killed.

When the awakened ones saw this, they could not help but reveal a trace of joy on their faces. Some of them even began to leave their groups and moved closer to the light door.

There were even awakened ones who targeted the door of light. From their point of view, as long as the door of light was destroyed, the monster would naturally be trapped behind it.

The awakened’s idea was not bad. However, this door of light had a form but not a physical form. No matter how fierce the attack was, it would not be able to hurt it at all. What they were doing would only be a waste of energy!

After another round of intense fighting, the last monster fell to the ground, and the tragic battle to defend the city finally ended.

From Tang Zhen’s point of view, he could see that the newly built city was covered with corpses. Half of them were awakened ones and half of them were monsters. The scene was extremely tragic.

It was just a battle to defend a level 1 city Tower, yet there were already such heavy casualties. This scene was indeed beyond Tang Zhen’s expectations.

The reason for this was very simple. Firstly, the awakened ones were too weak. When faced with fierce monsters that attacked the city, it would usually take more than ten people to kill them.

Secondly, the awakened ones did not understand the rules of the city defense. They thought that they had to kill all the monsters to win. They did not know that as long as they held on for enough time, the monsters would retreat.

Xiao Mei knew this but did not give any hints. This allowed the awakened to kill all the monsters that were attacking the city!

Although they had paid a heavy price, the new city Tower called ring city had been successfully built. In the near future, it would quickly complete its upgrade from Level 1 to level 9, and then directly start the plane invasion!
