Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 661 - 376 Defense Battle_2

It’s important to realize that the enemy is currently only harassing us, and it’s fully imaginable how perilous this section of the wall will be when they launch their total assault.

Ye Feng walked around and soon arrived at the defense line responsible for by the Yang City players, including Chai Shi.

Upon seeing Ye Feng’s arrival, everyone excitedly gathered around.

"Ye brother, you’re finally back. We’ve watched the rescue video from behind you; it was really awesome," Chai Shi was the first to say.

The others also spoke at the same time, expressing their excitement and admiration.

Participants like these are typically proud at heart, and under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t admire anyone else.

But Ye Feng was clearly not a normal circumstance.

Ye Feng could clearly feel the Power of Faith converging towards him from these people.

This brought a smile to Ye Feng’s face, and his demeanor became a few degrees warmer, "You arrived here earlier than me, how does it feel?"

These players were among the first evacuated to the retreat point after being brought by Ye Feng, returning more than ten minutes earlier than him and just in time for the previous total assault.

When they heard Ye Feng’s question, the excitement on their faces disappeared in an instant, replaced by solemn expressions.

"It’s not looking good, the number of Mutated Animals is simply too many. They can easily break through the blockade line, and only by relying on us to hold the front line can we buy time."

"The last attack didn’t last long, and I felt it was more like a probing attack by the enemy. If they really attack at all costs for an extended period, there will certainly be casualties among us, and once the injured and dead grow in number, the entire defense line might collapse," Chai Shi said in a lowered voice.

"And those Mutated Insects, they’re a big problem too," Lu Tao, who was next to him, interjected.

As a Spiritual Supowered Being, his sensing range was larger and clearer, and naturally he had more intelligence, "The Mutated Insects you see now are actually those whose attack capabilities are not that strong," he said in a lowered voice.

Hearing this, Ye Feng couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. Lu Tao continued, "The real trouble with Mutated Insects is those that can release deadly toxins. Even Sixth Order Prowess like us would die if bitten and the toxins are not cleared quickly."

"Even some Mutated Insects can directly spray their toxins, and most of the soldiers’ deaths are caused by these kinds of Mutated Insects."

Hearing this information, Ye Feng’s expression became more serious as well. He didn’t expect the total assault of the Mutated Beings to be so troublesome.

Of course, he merely found it troubling, not an insurmountable problem – as long as the military starts executing their bombing plan, they could naturally clear out a large swath of Mutated Beings, greatly relieving the pressure here.

Thinking this, Ye Feng was about to offer some words of comfort when suddenly, a shrill alarm blared through the camp.

At the sound, everyone’s faces changed slightly.

"It’s a level-one alert; these Mutated Beings are going to launch a total assault again," Lu Tao said immediately.

A large number of soldiers were now leaving the barracks and hurrying towards the wall. Within just a minute, the number of soldiers at this part of the wall had doubled.

Ye Feng even noticed that it wasn’t just regular troops deploying; logistics soldiers were joining in too, carrying large quantities of ammunition, ready to provide support at any time.

As the military rushed to make pre-battle preparations, hordes of Mutated Animals were approaching from the horizon.

They were not charging chaotically, but rather were organizing their formations in an orderly way.

Leading the way were Mutated Wild Buffalos, Mutated Wild Boars, Mutated Rhinos – these thick-skinned animals.

Behind them were various predatory animals, the main force for storming atop the walls and killing.

Above their heads flew various Mutated Flying Beasts, some even clutching boulders weighing a ton or two in their talons.

Clearly, if they were to fly several kilometers above the wall and drop these boulders, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Of course, in front of this Mutated Animal Army, there was also a large group of Mutated Insects serving as cannon fodder.

And most of these were capable of flight, so even though they were cannon fodder, the threat they posed was still immense.

If they flew over the walls to the rear, going on a rampage among the logistics personnel, the consequences would be equally severe.

Of course, Ye Feng also saw some brightly colored Mutated Insects, which surely were those capable of releasing toxins.

Boom, boom, boom!

Before the main force of the mutated creatures could approach, the artillery battalion had already begun to unleash a fierce bombardment.

Shells from howitzers and mortars fell upon the dense masses of the mutated creature army, turning a large area in front of the city walls into a sea of fire.

However, blood did not splatter as one might expect.

These fifth and sixth order mutated animals could completely withstand the damage caused by these mortars.

Even the defensively weaker mutated insects were at most knocked down by the blast wave, but they quickly climbed back up and continued their advance.

While the blasts didn’t kill the mutated creatures, that didn’t mean they were ineffective.

With their defensive power, they indeed could withstand the shock waves, but direct bomb hits, at the explosion’s center, could still inflict damage.

And as long as these mutated animals were injured, it would affect them more or less in the subsequent combat.

If the blasts could injure their joints or wings, thereby affecting their movement, that would be even better.

It was for these considerations that the bombing was taking place.

However, the Mutated Animal Army advanced quickly and soon came within 2 kilometers of the city walls.

At that moment, the soldiers on the walls all raised their Destroyer Hand Cannons and began firing.

Suddenly, even more intense roaring filled the entire wall, a truly formidable sound.

Yet, the effect was not as satisfying as one would hope. freewebnσvel.cøm

The firing rate of the Destroyer Hand Cannons was still too slow and in front of the Mutated Animal Army, there was a horde of mutated insects serving as cannon fodder to block the fire.

More importantly, these mutated beings were not mere targets; they were capable of evading.

Without a headshot, even with the power of the Destroyer Hand Cannon, it would be hard to inflict enough damage to kill them.

And hitting their heads was easier said than done.

Although the mutated animals had large heads and the soldiers had auxiliary aiming devices, the probability of a headshot was only about 50%.

Given the slow firing rate of the Destroyer Hand Cannons and not so high hit rate, the Mutated Animal Army easily breached their fire network and reached the walls.

Even though this section of the wall was as high as a six-story building, for the mutated animals, it was nothing; they could leap directly onto it.

In such a situation, the contestants stationed all over the wall finally took action.

Flames, water jets, thunderstorms, hurricanes— supernatural abilities emerged everywhere along the wall.

They repeatedly blasted the mutated animals attempting to leap onto the wall back down.

And the soldiers behind them took the opportunity to open fire.

In such close range, their shooting accuracy was greatly enhanced.

The hit rate could at least be boosted to over 90%, and the efficiency of the killing temporarily increased a lot.

But Ye Feng knew very well that to maintain this situation, the contestants would need to constantly unleash their superhuman abilities, engaging in high-intensity combat.

Once their inner spiritual energy was overconsumed and they couldn’t hold on, the situation would immediately collapse.

Ye Feng looked at the swarm of mutated creatures pouring in from all over and even he felt a sense of powerlessness.

In such a situation, the power of one person was minuscule, and he was no exception.

Even if he could kill a hundred mutated animals in one move, with millions of mutated creatures here, how could he possibly kill them all?

But even so, Ye Feng reached into his Storage Bracelet and pulled out the Thunder Encapsulating Spear.

Although he couldn’t rely on his individual power to withstand the mutated creature army,

he could still kill those elite sixth order mutated animals.
