When he charged towards the Lord-level Monster, Wargod Wang Yuan no longer needed to conserve his strength and took the lead, leaping up to slash at the Silverback Giant Ape.

Meanwhile, the warrior legion, led by Military warriors, constructed a defensive perimeter, surrounding the Lord-level Monster.

Next, they need to hold out until the Wargod kills the Lord-level Monster; then, the beast tide will collapse on its own.

The beast tides are all caused by Lord-level Monster.

The monster horde itself comes from various races, and many of them are mortal enemies.

The current peace is due to the existence and suppression of Lord-level Monster.

Once Lord-level Monster retreats or dies, the horde will instantly descend into chaos, turning on each other.

Scientists have yet to arrive at a definitive answer regarding the underlying principles.

I just know that this situation has always existed.

The monsters guarding the Silverback Giant Ape within the encirclement were quickly eliminated, and more than a dozen War General Level, together with the God of Wargod Wang Yuan, attacked the Lord-level Silverback Giant Ape.

Of course, the price paid was also enormous.

The martial arts legion originally numbered nearly four thousand, but now only a little over half remain, just over two thousand.

And they are still dying at a rate of a dozen or even dozens of people per minute.

The monster horde was already starting to panic, with countless powerful monsters charging towards the encirclement.

Although the Military's artillery fire never stopped, it was still no match for the beast horde's fearlessness. They all charged towards the Lord-level Monster as if their lives depended on it, so the warrior legions maintaining the encirclement were under immense pressure.

Inside, Lord-level Monster, the Silverback Giant Ape, charged outwards, while outside, countless beasts surged inwards.

But this also exposed the Silverback Giant Ape's lack of options.

If we can just hold on a little longer, this beast will be finished, and then the beast tide will end, this war will be won, and everyone will survive.

"Go to hell, you beast!"

Wargod Wang Yuan aimed at the head of the Silverback Giant Ape, preparing to kill the beast.

In an effort to restrain this Lord-level Monster, several more War General Level have just died under its iron fists.

It's all time to end it all.

Die!

Just as Wang Yuan was about to kill the beast, Wang Yuan saw no fear or panic in its eyes, but rather mockery and disdain.

Wang Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong.

Just then, a dark shadow attacked Wang Yuan from behind, and Wang Yuan only felt a chilling killing intent behind him.

Wang Yuan was shocked: This is bad, there are more than one lord -Lord-level Monster Lord-level Monster.

Wang Yuan's sword, aimed at the Silverback Giant Ape, was firmly gripped by the ape's right hand. At the same time, the Silverback Giant Ape roared loudly, the sound so loud that it made all the martial artists present feel uncomfortable, their blood surging.

Oh no, this beast isn't Primary Lord at all, but Intermediate Lord.

Before Wang Yuan could react, he was ambushed by Lord-level Monster that had been hiding in the shadows.

Despite his powerful physique preventing him from being killed immediately, the Wargod is now severely injured and unable to fight again.

The decapitation operation was a complete failure.

Skilled hunters often exist as prey; in reality, it is humans who are the ones being beheaded.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Before the martial arts legion could react, the Silverback Giant Ape, which had been at a disadvantage, suddenly gained momentum and reversed its decline. At the same time, the Wargod Wang Yuan, was attacked by another Lord-level Monster and fell to the ground, his life hanging in the balance.

At that moment, Wang Yuan also saw clearly what kind of monster had attacked him.

A house cat?

No, it should be Phantom Cheetah.

Phantom Cheetah typically hunt alone and are known for their speed, cunning, and ruthlessness.

Once you reach the Lord level, you can transform back to the size of your original house cat.

Humans had previously infiltrated several settlements because of its disguise. Then, in coordination with the monsters outside the city, they attacked and destroyed the settlements from within, resulting in the tragic deaths of countless humans who ultimately became food for the monsters.

If I remember correctly, there is a Lord-level Monster in Ping City, a hundred miles away. I even had Wargod come to fight it before, but unfortunately it escaped.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the place.

As if things weren't bad enough, just then, a huge snake's tail suddenly broke through the encirclement.

A giant snake, about 100 meters long and 2 meters thick, swaggered into the encirclement, its tongue flicking, completely ignoring the warriors of the martial arts legion.

Yet another Lord-level Monster!

From that moment on, the monster horde suddenly stopped charging at the warrior legion.

Three Lord-level Monster!

It's no wonder there's such a large beast tide this time; monsters from several surrounding areas have probably gathered here.

Furthermore, the Silverback Giant Ape is not a low-level lord as the intelligence reports suggest, but rather Intermediate Lord, equivalent to Intermediate War God.

If they knew that the Silverback Giant Ape was Intermediate Lord, the one who came would definitely not be Wang Yuan, but another Intermediate War God, or even a High-level War God.

Meanwhile, the command post, which had been monitoring the battle situation here, was also silent, with everyone standing there dumbfounded.

"It's over, completely over. I never imagined that humanity would be outmaneuvered by monsters in terms of tactics."

"A three- Lord-level Monster, we can't win unless a miracle occurs."

"The decapitation operation has completely failed."

At this moment, everyone was filled with despair.

The legion commander yelled, "Are the intelligence department all useless? Why didn't you tell us about the unusual activity of monsters in other directions?"

One of the staff officers said, "Several monster groups in the vicinity sent intelligence two hours ago, showing no abnormalities and no large-scale monster movements."

The chief of staff said weakly, "Commander, give the order. We have lost this battle. Those beasts are much more cunning than we imagined. They are not just intelligent; they are also evolving. They know how to form cliques and understand tactics. We did not lose unjustly."

I estimate that these two Lord-level Monster came alone, without many monster guards. However, I believe that the horde led by these two Lord-level Monster will soon be heading our way to enjoy this feast!

No sooner had the chief of staff finished speaking than an officer reported, "Beast hordes are gathering in large numbers from other directions, heading straight for us."

The corps commander closed his eyes weakly; the chief of staff's guess was correct.

Then he gave his final order.

Legion Commander: "I am the commander of the 63rd Army. The operation to kill them has failed. We were not facing one Lord-level Monster, but three. This is my dereliction of duty. I am incompetent! I have no face to face my fellow villagers."

This is my last order: the eighth, ninth, and tenth lines of defense, hold your positions. Every second you hold out will save more lives. You are all soldiers; remember your responsibilities as soldiers of the people.

Fear is instinct, but perseverance is your responsibility. All officers and soldiers of our command will live and die with you, and hold out until the very last moment.

The remaining officers and soldiers, organized into squads and platoons, will cover the evacuation of civilians towards the Jiangnan Base City. I have already reported the situation here to the Jiangnan Base City, and they will send people to meet you.

But remember, you are soldiers. It is your responsibility to protect your country and its people. You have a responsibility to safeguard the lives of the people, at least while you are alive.

I hope you can all safely retreat to the Jiangnan Base City in the end.

Finally, I have one last request. The annihilation of the Martial Arts Legion is inevitable. Many of you are not soldiers, but heroes. I have no right to ask you to die, but I hope that when escape is impossible, you will cover the retreat of Wargod Wang Yuan. His life is more important than any of ours, and it concerns the safety of the entire Jiangnan Base City. I beg you, everyone...
