Chapter 1279 - The War Begins (2/2)
Most of the Bug Tribes who pa.s.sed through the high city wall after attacking had their power taken away by all sorts of formations and barriers. Many attacks even vanished before they hit anything. Even if they did hit something, 70% to 80% of impact and speed were taken away, which lost its threat.
The humans were well prepared for this battle.
Lin Huang who was still hiding under the Giant Beetle tummy was secretly relieved when he saw that.
Although it was not the gravel world, the humans in the city were of his kind after all.
A new order came into Lin Huang’s ears as the fire went on for some ten minutes from both sides.
“Excluding the long-distance attack group, everyone attacks!”
A commotion went on among the Bug Tribes as the order came. A sea of bug beasts flew into the air and charged above the city wall directly.
Only a minority of bug beasts that were not good in flying chose to charge beneath the city wall.
The Bug King’s order had a certain force on the ordinary Bug Tribes, there was no way that they could go against the order. However, Lin Huang was not a real Bug Tribe, but an imposter. Although he received the order too, there was no stress on him.
Seeing the formation waves that appeared faintly above the city wall, Lin Huang knew that this wave of Bug Tribes would be in an unfavorable situation again.
He withdrew his head obediently again and proceeded to hide under the Giant Beetle’s tummy. He waited for the Giant Beetle to run with its clumsy, thin legs patiently.
It was not that the Giant Beetles could not fly. They had wings too, but their flight technique was worrying. They could not deviate their directions most of the time as soon as they started flying. No matter what kind of obstacles they encountered, they could only smash into it. Therefore, unless they were running for their lives, the Giant Beetles rarely flap their wings.
As the Giant Beetles were merely one-third on their way, a sea of bug beasts had flown above the city wall.
Just like what Lin Huang expected, the countless bug beasts slowed down from the formations and barriers as they pa.s.sed above the city wall. They became sitting ducks.
Naturally, the humans on the city wall would not let go of such an opportunity. This time, almost everyone on the city wall attacked. They attacked with all sorts of techniques at the Bug Tribes that were slowed down.
The first wave of Bug Tribe fighters that went first became sitting ducks directly. Almost all of them were killed instantly.
The Bug Tribes at the back reacted immediately when they noticed something was off. However, they did not retreat. Instead, they treated their kind in front as their s.h.i.+elds while they proceeded to attack at the city wall.
Although they slowed down significantly, there were so many of them after all. Apart from the major casualties on the first impact, the death rate after that dropped significantly.
Seeing that the Bug Tribe soldiers did not stop approaching, the humans felt the stress on their side.
“Go, squads!”
As the order came from the human’s side, up to a hundred human squads charged from above the city wall. The members of the squads were high-level Virtual G.o.ds. They were like arrows shooting into the bug hordes.
Compared to the Bug Tribes being slowed down, up to a hundred human squads seemed to not have been affected by the barriers and formations at all.
While one was advancing and another was dropping, it was like up to a hundred tigers pouncing at the lambs.
The Bug Tribes’ stance was messed up instantly. The sitting ducks that were initially charging towards the city wall were killed one after another.
As if up to a hundred whirlpools appeared among the tsunami-like bug hordes, their order was disrupted now.
“Amazing comeback!”
Lin Huang could not help but exclaimed when he saw that.
“The great formation of up to a hundred billion in number the Bug Tribes came up with were disrupted by some 1,000 people like a piece of cake!”
However, Lin Huang could not help but frown under the disguise in the next second. He thought of a problem all of a sudden.
“Now that the battle is so intense, there must be countless True G.o.ds watching. I’m afraid it might be difficult for me to remove my disguise to enter the city. Forget it that the Bug Tribes might find out about me but as soon as humans find me, they would most probably think that I’m a spy for the Bug Tribe. Even if I managed to prove that I’m human, I bet they won’t believe me. After all, there were spies controlled by the Bug Tribe before…”
