"If we want to increase the number of defensive arrays outside of Zhao Yuan, the consumption will be too great. The spirit stones we have now can last us at least another month or so. We're still sending people to buy more spirit stones from nearby."
In the training hall, the leader of the meeting, Zhu Wen, was there. The higher ups of the training hall were currently discussing their strategy for dealing with the situation.
After all, we have not experienced the beast tide for more than a hundred years. Many residents of the city have lived in the prosperous and peaceful Zhao Yuan City since birth, and have never experienced such a drastic event. When a great war suddenly broke out, not only would everyone be easily terrified, the lack of spirit stones in the city is also very obvious.
"We are currently dispatching people from all directions to send spirit stones over to support the defensive arrays here."
In the meeting, an old man sitting in the uppermost left corner let out a sigh. Everyone's eyes were focused on this old man. It was clear that this person's status was very high.
The old man said, "Not only is he a resident of the city, even this City Lord has never experienced a true beast tide since he took over the position of the City Lord. I hope that this is just a dream … In the end, we can only ask the Immortal Masters of the Cultivators' Association how to deal with it. "
Although he was just a mortal in the city and did not have any talent in cultivation, his status as the City Lord made the people of the Cultivator's Association respect him. Therefore, the City Lord had to come and listen to the opinions of everyone in this year's Cultivator Gathering Assembly.
President Zhu Wen, who was standing at the top, spoke up, "City Lord, don't worry. No matter how many beast wave armies arrive this time, we still have ways to deal with them in advance. Furthermore, other human cities have already dispatched their army to assist us."
"As long as we block the first wave of attacks, in about half a month, all kinds of human cultivators will arrive at this place. At that time, it will be the time for us human beings to counterattack with all our strength."
Vice Chairman Ceng Yuan, this smiling fatty also said, "That's right, everyone, don't be too pessimistic. With our current strength, it's normal for us to delay half a month after blocking the first wave of attacks. When the other reinforcements arrive, the beasts will all die.
"Report!"
Just as the higher ups were having their meeting, the door suddenly opened with a bang. A cultivator hurriedly rushed in, but his expression was one of extreme fear, as if the sky had fallen.
When they saw this scene, Ceng Yuan and the others didn't even have the time to reprimand him. They directly asked, "What exactly happened, quickly tell us!"
"Beat him …" It's here! "
The messenger was obviously rushing over. At this moment, he was out of breath, "Goblin …" "The army is coming …"
"What? Are you kidding?!"
"Nonsense! We've already set up a sentry outside the Great Sea Forest. If even our spies haven't reported back, how did you know that they were coming? "
With the messenger's shout, the entire meeting room exploded. Such a terrifying event had happened too suddenly, and no one was willing to believe it. There were even people who subconsciously believed that it was a fake news.
After being reprimanded by so many people, the messenger man had a helpless expression. He could only yell, "It's true, it's true! "The beast tide army has already approached Zhao Yuan City. The spies that we sent out have all been annihilated!"
"What?!"
The guild leader, Zhu Wen, immediately stood up. Without thinking, he transformed into a streak of light and flew out. The other people's expressions changed as they followed him out.
The only one left at the scene was the old City Lord, who could not use any magic power. He blankly sat on his seat, an expression of disbelief on his face.
After a long while, the old man sighed. We've already agreed on two months, and now we don't even have time to prepare … "
… ….
Outside Zhao Yuan City.
The city wall was filled with people, all of whom were staring at the army of beasts that was tens of miles away, with terrified expressions on their faces.
Several kilometers away, long black lines were moving. From a distance, they looked like a group of endless ants. However, the intense tremors in the ground could be felt by Zhao Yuan City who was dozens of miles away.
The countless number of black dots in the distance and the billowing smoke and dust represented the appearance of the true army of the monster tide.
A calamity that he had not seen for a hundred years had actually descended today!
"How can this be!"
"Didn't Fang Ping tell me that there will be a great calamity in at least two months? Why did it come today?"
At this moment, the president of the assembly, Zhu Wen, Ceng Yuan, as well as the elders of the higher echelons of the Cultivator's Association all flew up to the top of the city walls at the same time. They looked at the terrifying scene in the distance and all sucked in a breath of cold air.
"It seems like it's because Fang Ping and the others last time angered the Raging Demon King. In order to not give us any chance to prepare, this old demon decided not to act according to plan and chose to start right now!"
Zhu Wen sighed as he slowly spoke.
"Furthermore, the scouts ahead of us haven't sent any news. It's very likely that they were eliminated at the very beginning. Now that they've clearly been preparing for a long time and are attacking us from all sides, we're at a disadvantage."
"Sigh, no matter what, we have to defend Zhao Yuancheng at all costs and quickly activate the defensive array. We have to endure for at least a month and at the same time inform the reinforcements to rush to the city as fast as possible. If we take even one step at night, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
"Call for everyone from the Cultivator's Association to come guard the city. Kill whoever dares to retreat!"
"Send someone to inform the residents of the city to gather and retreat to the secret stronghold that we have arranged beforehand …"
A series of orders were passed down!
Facing such a situation, Zhu Wen and the other higher-ups quickly calmed down because they knew they could not panic. If they hesitated, then the close to a million residents in the city would be completely finished.
The defensive arrays were activated very quickly. Under the supply of spirit stones from the city, a huge light purple screen rose from the ground outside the city, completely separating the sky and the earth and protecting Zhao Yuan City within the defensive arrays.
Although this array had not been used for a hundred years, people of the Cultivator's Association would still repair it every year. Therefore, it was still usable until now. However, facing an army of so many beasts, it was unknown just how long it could last.
