Chapter 287: Chapter 222: The Beast Tide! Cui Xiabing’s Despair!

Seven days later!

“Hold the line!”

“Everyone, hold the line!”

“Damn it! It’s the giant blood-sucking mosquitoes! The giant blood-sucking mosquitoes are here!”

On a defensive line made up of hundreds of large trees, over a hundred swordsmen and archers were continuously attacking the colourful spiders below.

This was the last of the three-star troops!

As long as they can withstand this attack, they would get another 10 hours of rest time!

However, at this moment, a large swarm of blood-sucking mosquitoes, each as big as an adult’s head, appeared in the distant sky.

For everyone, the threat of colourful spiders was not that significant.

As long as there were enough weapons and morale, they could resist, even with their bare bodies.

But when facing blood-sucking mosquitoes, the fate of the ordinary troops was only death.

Their speed was just too fast!

And once attacked by the mouthparts of these giant mosquitoes, a victim could be drained dry in less than ten seconds!

Even a single bite would result in a big bump.

Just when everyone was in a panic, six of the massive trees forming the city wall suddenly ‘came to life’.

They stretched their massive bodies, their vines constantly extending like snakes.

Then, the large treetops bloomed like chrysanthemums.

A greyish-green needles, each about three feet long, began to squirm.

And then…

“Pff!”

“Pff!!”

“Pff!!!”

In an instant, hundreds of needles were shot out from the crowns of these six trees, like bursts of rain, shooting into the swarm of blood-sucking mosquitoes.

These blood-sucking mosquitoes fell from the sky like dumplings and were squished into mush by the colourful spiders on the ground.

“Hahaha! We’ve won!”

“Long live the Lord!”

“The Lord’s power is too strong! He can actually turn the large trees into tree people!”

“Once again, we owe it to the Lord’s silver needle tree people!”

“Hahaha, we can rest again. I wonder how many brothers we can recruit this time….”

The soldiers on the tree walls were shouting excitedly, while Cui Xiabing, standing behind the crowd, was filled with confidence.

“Drive the trees, build a wall around my home, and let the soldiers fight in the safest environment.”

“With six special silver needle tree people as the main force, we can clear all the alien beasts!”

“If we keep this pace, I will definitely emerge as the champion of this secret realm assessment!”

Cui Xiabing felt very proud for a moment, her mood extremely lifted.

In her mind, she had already begun to imagine rings of walls made entirely of large trees, like a giant labyrinth protecting the heart of her territory, continuously shrinking and occupying this world, thus expelling all the alien beasts from this planet!

Yes.

She had already learned the secret of the desolate planet and this planet from hero Ran Dao.

“Charge!”

Suddenly at that moment, a battle cry came from a direction below the city wall.

Hundreds of cavalrymen riding tall horses, led by Ran Dao, charged out of the city wall.

They held long swords, and their bodies were wrapped in massive amounts of armour made from tree vines, continuously slaughtering the colourful spiders around them.

Light cavalry.

Under Cui Xiabing’s ability, she had formed a large number of vine armours, which were even stronger in defence than the light cavalry’s leather armours.

This group of light cavalry, like a red-hot dagger thrust into a cow, quickly dissolved the surrounding colourful spiders.

Especially Ran Dao at the forefront, his level had already escalated to LV20 at this moment.

All his attributes have greatly improved, and he has awakened another skill.

Under his charge, the light cavalry seemed to be wrapped in a layer of gale, making them faster and their arrows sharper!

In just a few minutes, under Ran Dao’s leadership, the light cavalry directly pierced through the formation of the colourful spiders, with minimal losses.

“Kill!”

After regrouping, Ran Dao roared once again, leading his light cavalry to charge back into battle!

In a battlefield with melee weapons, cavalry is the nightmare of the infantry!

Even when facing the Alien Beasts known as colorful spiders, it is the same scenario.

Just like this, the airborne vampire mosquitos were held off by the Silver needle tree people.

The earthbound colorful spiders were engaged in combat with the cavalry lead by Ran Dao, and the extermination of these groups of Alien Beasts is only a matter of time.

“We won…!”

Cui Xiabing breathed a sigh of relief, looking towards the distant black fog.

In past Alien Beast sieges, the third wave of colorful spiders and vampire mosquitos has always been a major hurdle.

The assault this time would eliminate seventy percent of the supporting Professionalists.

The reason is simple.

Joint attacks from both ground and air forces.

Supporting Professionalists without special abilities find it difficult to resist these two types of attacks.

But these two types of troops can also bring Professionalists a large amount of resources.

With these resources, the overall strength of the Professionalists’ homeland will receive a qualitative boost.

“Gathering resources from the battlefield should be able to level up my home crystal to LV4. Then I can recruit four-star troops, I wonder if I should go for heavy warriors or feather archers?”

“I’m more inclined towards feather archers, after all, I can build ‘Tree City’. The troops only need to be on the city wall to attack the Alien Beasts…”

“Rumble…”

Just as Cui Xiabing was contemplating, the distant black fog suddenly churned up again.

“Hmm?”

This unusual scene immediately aroused Cui Xiabing’s vigilance.

Soon, a swarm of giant centipedes exuding a bright red color appeared from the black fog and rapidly moved towards their battlefield.

Next to this swarm of red centipedes, giant pythons, roughly ten meters long with three heads, also appeared roaring from the black fog.

Cui Xiabing’s face suddenly changed, his complexion as pale as a ghost.

“Four-star Red Centipedes and Three-headed Pythons! How could they be here?”

The swordsmen and archers nearby also noticed these anomalies, exclaiming one after another:

“Red Centipedes! Three-headed Pythons!”

“New Alien Beasts have appeared!”

“How is this possible? The three-star level Alien Beast attack time is not over yet, how could four-star Alien Beasts appear on the battlefield?”

The troops were in chaos, but Cui Xiabing quickly regained his composure.

“Retreat! Send the order quickly! Everyone return to Tree City!”

“Sound the retreat!”

“Bring the resources back!”

Cui Xiabing ordered again: “Bring back all the resources you can!”

“I was originally planning to save some resources to upgrade the Home Crystal, but now it seems we’ll have to use them. If not, we may not survive this beast tide!”

Beast tide!

In the defense of the secret realm homeland, a special situation will occasionally occur.

Beast tide!

High-star Alien Beasts might launch an attack on the Professionalist’s home ahead of schedule for various reasons, resulting in a tide-like wave of beasts.

“Archers!”

Cui Xiabing yelled, “All resources, recruit all the Archers, I want the Tree City to be filled with Archers…”

“My Lord!”

Suddenly, an Archer nearby excitedly shouted, “Quick, look over there!”

“There are other Alien Beasts! There are other Alien Beasts…”

Cui Xiabing quickly lifted his head, only to see from the black fog a group of giant mantises, taller than a human, suddenly flying out from above the heads of the Red Centipedes and Three-headed snakes.

They were all shrouded in fierce storm winds, and like helicopters, they charged out!

Cui Xiabing’s face changed drastically, “Five-star Storm Mantises! How is this possible!”
