Three hours past midnight, please cast your monthly votes and recommendation votes! …… Hearing Xu Tianguo’s words, Ye Chen’s face darkened, but he showed no panic, calmly stating, “First, dispatch people over to hold the line.

You must resist! I’ll be there soon!” Xu Tianguo paused for a beat.

“You can’t leave right now?” Ye Chen nodded solemnly. “You must hold on!” Xu Tianguo grasped the gravity of the situation; at the eve of such a crucial siege, Ye Chen could not arrive immediately, meaning something even more vital held him.

He nodded with a grave expression. “Rest assured, I will fight until the very last moment.

We will share life or death with the Base City! Go handle your business; I absolutely will not disappoint you!” His words were resolute!

Ye Chen nodded and shut off the communicator, turning to Mo Feng, who was conducting an experiment before him. “The monster army is here.

Notify Bai Long and the others. You must hold the line; I will be there shortly.” Mo Feng stopped what he was doing, glanced at him, and said, “Don’t rush things; haste makes waste.

We can manage this matter.” Saying this, he dropped the scalpel, walked to a nearby rack, retrieved a set of Python Skin Armor, ripped his current clothes to shreds, and changed into his battle gear! “Let’s go,” Mo Feng left the room, walking out with the air of one returning nevermore.

His imposing figure momentarily blotted out the sunlight, and he gently, closed the door. Ye Chen looked at the cold room, bile rising bitter in his stomach.

He hadn't expected the monsters to be so lucky as to arrive precisely when he was merging his genes. He sighed, murmuring internally, “They must hold!” Then, he closed his eyes.

The entire world turned dark. All he could hear was the sound of rushing blood; he devoted his entire being to merging the Lightning Beast genes… …… Outside on the streets, the sounds of people grew louder.

Construction workers and personnel from various departments stood atop the buildings, gazing forward, watching the battle unfolding at the city walls with worried expressions. “Brother, will those monsters break through?” “Meng, don’t be afraid.

The Base City’s warriors are blocking them for us!” Everyone looked out at the dense, oppressive mass of monsters rolling in like a black cloud, casting a shadow over their hearts. Their only hope now rested on the three great factions defending the Base City.

“Faster! Faster!” “Everyone, run!” The captain, a middle-aged man with a thick, imposing beard, roared at the soldiers, his authority inherent even without anger.

Many soldiers hurried toward the city walls, shouldering their weapons, each heart heavy. Where there is battle, there is death.

The black clouds shrouded the sky, obscuring the light. Along all four walls of the Brightness Base City, countless monsters surged forward, a black tide stretching beyond sight, kicking up dust that choked the heavens.

The thunderous footfalls of the monsters hammered against the hearts of those atop the walls like falling stones. The immense pressure sweeping towards them made many feel suffocated.

Bai Long, Mo Feng, Yue Heng, and Zhuge Fan were stationed separately on the four walls. Mo Feng had chosen the west side.

A rare solemnity showed in this man's eyes. He stood on the parapet, gazing into the distance, flanked by eight warriors from the Superman Hall and over a hundred powerhouses from the Blood God Hall.

Numerous ordinary Elders and Hall Masters clustered around Mo Feng, revolving around him as their center. Mo Feng’s expression was calm as he commanded, “When the monsters enter range, we initiate the strike.” “Yes!” an Elder nodded.

On the east side, where Yue Heng held the defense. “Brothers!” Yue Heng stood on the wall, the fierce wind whipping the animal hides on his body so they snapped like flags.

His gaze was sharp as he looked down at the tens of thousands of Black Armored Battalion soldiers gathered below, shouting loudly, “Today, we face the most terrifying catastrophe in history!” “But—” Yue Heng stood imposing, raising the great banner of the Brightness Guild. It unfurled majestically in the wind, veins bulging on his arms as he roared towards the sky, “Today, we share life and death!

For the families, friends, and loved ones behind you, even if our blades shatter, even if all our blood is spilled, we must not yield!” “Slaughter every single monster—” Yue Heng roared, his eyes blazing with fury! This sound was like rolling thunder, sweeping across the firmament, deafening and causing the countless people below to become instantly fired up, their eyes blazing with unyielding will to fight!

Most of them had bonds, people they needed to protect. Therefore, they could not retreat!

The clouds on the horizon churned, pressing down onto the earth. Countless monsters surged forward, rushing like a reversed tide, their pounding and roaring overwhelming the senses, causing the ramparts to tremble slightly.

In the distance, some cameras were live-streaming this scene back to the Huaxia Base City. In the Huaxia Base City, the major Guilds and the military forces gathered on the main streets, watching the terrifying scene outside the Brightness Base City on the crystal screens atop the metal battle towers.

“Daddy, so many monsters.” “En, little one, don’t be afraid.” At this moment, 90% of the people in Huaxia Base City remained within their own city, clustered before the crystal screens in the Atlantis metropolis, watching this event. Upon seeing the images of the endless horde of monsters charging, even the guild leaders of the Splendor Guild and the Dragon Soaring Guild showed slight alarm.

Countless humans focused their gazes on this battle! “It’s too terrifying!” “Can the Brightness Base City hold the line?” “They only have fifty thousand combat personnel; how is that possible!” “It’s a blessing that the Huaxia Base City was established earlier; the monster siege back then wasn't this terrifying.” Worry etched the faces of many.

Most of them held no enmity toward the Brightness Guild and naturally hoped they would hold. After all, they were all human!

When faced with their own species, many people put aside grudges, even if animosity existed. “I hope they succeed,” Murong De sighed, watching the scene on the giant screen.

The Commander-in-Chief sent his blessings to the Brightness Base City. On the city streets, countless people silently chanted!

“Go!” “You must hold!” “Don’t give up!” The battle commenced! The dark clouds in the sky seemed like war drums, signaling the battle horn!

“Roar!!!” Innumerable monsters reached the city limits, their roars sweeping over everything, making every soldier’s heart pound, their blood feeling as though it were burning, boiling! “Die!

All of you, die!!!” “Aaaaaargh!!!” On the walls, countless warriors, driven as if insane, pulled the activation switches for the cannons and laser cannons, aiming them at the densest clusters of monsters. Beams of light shot out, detonating within the horde.

The monsters ran into the trap layer and quickly triggered the mechanisms, tumbling into the pits with countless piercing screams that shook the soul. Under the relentless surge of the massive monster army, the great pit exposed itself like a massive ravine.

Some powerful monsters, just as they were about to fall, leaped, clearing the gap and landing in the second layer of traps. “Boom, boom, boom…” “Roar!!!” Countless shrieks erupted, making scalps crawl and skin prickle with goosebumps.

All those watching were stunned, then erupted in elation. They hadn't expected the first wave to inflict such devastating losses on the monsters!

Behind the main monster force were many towering figures, as large as small mountains, watching impassively as the monsters charged relentlessly, showing no heartbreak over the spilled blood of their kin. “Kill!” Yue Heng roared, the veins on his neck bulging.

Those operating the turrets hurriedly intensified their fire, pressing the buttons as soon as they aimed at the monster clusters. Laser beams rained down like meteors into the horde, shattering bodies and scattering gore.

As the monsters charged relentlessly, many rat-monsters and insect-monsters fell into the great pits, impaled by the venomous iron spikes hidden within. Before long, a hundred-meter-deep pit was gradually filled.

Many monsters that fell in, not yet dead, were crushed to death by the monsters falling in behind them as they tried to climb out. Blood stained the earth, spread like a swatch of vivid crimson cloth.

Countless monsters trampled over the bodies of their own kind, surging past the massive pit to reach the base of the walls. Before the entire horde, there remained only a wide moat surrounding the city.

Some tall monsters roared and stepped into the moat, advancing toward the city, but the moment they touched the water, they were attacked by the monstrous fish within, which surged out, lunging at the monsters’ massive limbs to tear and bite. The water in the moat was instantly dyed red, becoming a constantly flowing river of blood!

The land monsters and the aquatic fish monsters engaged in a fierce, brutal melee. Splashes of scarlet water soared high; life became as fragile as a falling leaf, and countless lives perished in an instant.

Who, ultimately, had wrought such devastation? Those on the walls watched the moat below.

Seeing the fish monsters and land monsters battling furiously, which should have been advantageous and cause for rejoicing, no one could manage a smile. Perhaps it was fear of how terrifying the land monsters were, or perhaps pity—they felt how utterly humble life had become… The sky above was thick with dark clouds, and a harsh wind swept through, as if two icy gazes were fixed upon the earth below.

Finally, the monsters, stepping over the corpses of countless fish monsters in the moat, charged toward the edge of the city. The once vast moat was quickly choked with bodies, blood flowing everywhere.

The brutality of the fighting silenced countless onlookers. Those in the distant Huaxia Base City watched with mounting tension, knowing that only the final line of defense remained.

“Kill!!!” At the edge of the city walls, countless Black Armored Battalion warriors raised their swords and blades, their eyes fierce and manic, like soldiers marching to their deaths. They roared and charged toward the wave-like torrent of the monster army!

The moment they clashed, many warriors were crushed and ground into paste, while others were slashed by monster claws, their heads severed. In a battle involving tens of thousands, skill was useless; only brute strength mattered as they fought on!

Yue Heng roared to the sky like a maddened lion, “Kill!!!” The Blood God Hall powerhouses beside him drew the battle blades from their backs, their fingers gripping tightly, their arms trembling slightly from the immense force. Watching the warriors being endlessly torn apart below, they roared and surged forward.

There was no turning back now! Those who considered retreating knew that if the Base City fell, the Brightness Guild would vanish from this world!

And their debts would never be settled! Furthermore, surrounded on all sides with the monster army at the gates, even retreating meant they would eventually be encircled and annihilated!

The monsters did not care for a food source that surrendered!
