Chapter 278 - A Grand Army Of A Million Monster! (1/2)
”Roar!!!”
As the Mountain Giant King neared Cold Desolate Dragon City, to the northeast, a ferocious army walked out of the Lake of Death. This monster army was even more terrifying than the monsters led by the Mountain Giant King. They were all water creatures of the Lake of Death. Their looks were extremely strange, completely beyond the imagination of the players.
When the live-stream switched over, many viewers felt uncomfortable.
The monsters were all strange in appearance. Some had tentacles on their heads, some had lumps of flesh on their skin, and some were twisted and limping on the ground. Their appearance was even stranger than the strange creatures in the movies. They were also covered in mucus, and they looked disgusting.
”Wow, are all these things in the Lake of Death?”
”The monster's beard is actually an octopus beard. Looking at the suction cups, my phobia is acting up.”
”How disgusting. Shouldn't the water dwellers be mermaids? Why are they so ugly?”
”It's probably because the environment is too dark that they grow up casually…”
”I'm going to vomit. Not only are these monsters astonishingly ugly, but their numbers are also astonishing. Looks like they're not inferior to the Mountain Giant King's army.”
”An army of a million appearing in both directions at the same time, how can we fight?”
Looking at the army of monsters in the Lake of Death, the players felt helpless.
In their eyes, there was no room for resistance in this war. Facing these incomparably powerful monsters, other than instantly collapsing, there was no other possibility for the huge and unreal city of the Cold Desolate Dragon City.
Some players in the Cold Desolate Dragon City had even taken out return scrolls, preparing to return to the safest Iron Skull City.
…
Ding!
”Your city [Cold Desolate Dragon City] is about to face a monster invasion. Please immediately send the guards to battle!”
Lorne sat in the fortress on the city wall and looked at the distant mountain range. That was where the Mountain Giant King was attacking. There were already sounds coming from there, and it seemed that the monsters would reach here in a short time.
At that moment, a notification appeared in front of Lorne.
Ding!
”Commander of the Iron Skull City Army, Rhett, requests to assist Cold Desolate Dragon City in the defense of the city. Do you agree?”
Rhett wanted to help?
Lorne was surprised and quickly decided.
Soon, a portion of the city guards stood on the city wall. Lorne arrived beside Rhett to check on them.
”Didn't you say that Iron Skull City would not participate in the battle of Cold Desolate Dragon City? Why did Commander Rhett still choose to join with his men?” Lorne asked casually.
”As the city guards of Iron Skull City, our only duty is to protect the safety of Iron Skull City. Under normal circumstances, we are not allowed to participate in other forces' wars, but…”
Rhett said in a low voice, ”Cold Desolate Dragon City has an extraordinary meaning to Iron Skull City. Its existence has greatly affected the subsequent layout of Iron Skull City on the battlefield. After consideration from City Lord Ansare, you have decided to let me send a portion of the city guards to help you defend, but there are some things that I have to say in advance. We will help you defend, but if there is a situation where you can't be saved, I will very likely prioritize the army. When I think you can't resist, we will directly retreat. I hope you can understand our actions.”
”Of course.”
Lorne smiled and nodded, ”Cold Desolate Dragon City is very grateful that Iron Skull City has chosen to provide us with some help. No matter how much support you provide, we will remember it.”
Rhett nodded, then waved his sword and said, ”All city guards, build a defensive formation with the city wall and resist the attacks of the monsters with all your might!!!”
