Chapter 257 The Sea Beast Tide Begins

The sound of raindrops falling down hit the window. Maybe because I slept too much during the day, I couldn't sleep at night. I turned over, opened my eyes, and stared at the tightly drawn curtains in a daze.

The temperature was a little low, and the sound of continuous rain outside was heard in her ears. Lin Chuxia huddled in the quilt, wrapping herself like a silkworm cocoon, rubbed the warm quilt, and exhaled comfortably.

Rainy days are really the best time to sleep.

Lin Chuxia, who was about to fall asleep under the hypnotic sound of rain and the warmth of the quilt, was awakened by the sound of a bell. Her eyes opened immediately, full of clarity, without the sleepy look from before.

As soon as she lifted the quilt, she got up, got dressed, and washed up. She had very good skin and didn't need too much makeup on a daily basis. She looked good even without makeup.

It only takes ten minutes to wash and dress, but if you want to put on makeup, it will take even longer.

She braided her long hair into a fishtail and placed it in front of her chest. She wore a mint green dress that showed off her waist and had perfect pleats. The skirt reached her knees. She wore a darker windbreaker on the outside. The windbreaker had a belt of the same color at the waist. It was longer than the skirt and tied with a bow at the waist.

She chose flat shoes so that she could run and escape. She didn't wear high heels because she didn't know how long the beast tide would last, and high heels were not very comfortable. Although they looked good, they were a torture to the feet. Secondly, it would be difficult to escape. If she met a sea beast coming straight towards her, she would not be able to escape.

As soon as I walked out of the room, I saw Bian Qiyun waiting outside. He was already dressed and I didn’t know how long he had been waiting.

"Let's go!"

Bian Qiyun was a little nervous, and his lips were pale. The last time a beast tide occurred in Bianbai City, he was just an ordinary person and could only hide in the shelter with others, praying for the city in his heart and worrying about those who were going to the battlefield.

And now, he can also stand on the city wall and join the battle with Sister Chuxia, feeling both nervous and excited.

When I arrived at the door, I glanced at the umbrellas and raincoats placed not far from the door, and chose a transparent raincoat without hesitation.

Umbrellas have too many flaws on the battlefield. The fact that they block vision alone makes them unpopular.

Bian Qiyun followed suit.

As soon as I left the hotel, I saw a familiar car with two bodyguards sitting in the driver's seat. Wang Lixia was an ordinary person, and according to the rules, she also had to go to the shelter.

Plus, she is an official and needs to assist in managing other ordinary people.

"Where's the city lord?"

Seeing two bodyguards meant that the confession had been released. Lin Chuxia was busy and not in the mood to ask questions. She had other questions to ask about the beast tide.

For example, the location of the city lord.

"The city lord is rushing to the city wall."

"Have the reinforcements arrived?"

"We're here. Those people rushed as fast as they could and arrived before dark, a little ahead of schedule."

As he spoke, one could also hear the relief in the bodyguard's words.

If we had arrived a little later, it would be hard to say how many people would be alive in Haicheng by then!

Knowing that reinforcements had arrived, Lin Chuxia felt more relaxed. She noticed Bian Qiyun, who was clenching his fists and seemed to be trembling all over. She didn't know whether he was nervous or excited.

"Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun...?"

After shouting twice in a row, Bian Qiyun finally came to his senses and responded:

"Sister Chuxia, what's wrong?"

She also wanted to ask you what's wrong?

"Xiao Yun, remember to do things within your ability. Your abilities are powerful, but your strength is still a little low. Save your life so that you can kill more monsters in the future. Your father and brother are still here, and they are waiting for you to come home. Don't let them wait in vain."

She was afraid that the young man would be too passionate and die on the battlefield. Then, how would she face her father who entrusted him to her?

Although these people are not so upright, they still need to be said.

No matter how close or distant people are, family members will always think of taking care of each other more.

Bian Qiyun nodded, not looking perfunctory. She listened very seriously, knowing that Lin Chuxia didn't want him to act recklessly and told him not to be too impulsive. She knew that he still had relatives around, so he had to be cautious in his actions.

Instead of not allowing him to kill sea monsters.

"Sister Chuxia, I remember what you said."

The sky was somewhat dark. If it were daytime, one would probably be able to see the scene of “dark clouds pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it”, but unfortunately, it was the middle of the night now.

All I could see was pitch black, as if any light had been absorbed by the darkness.

The road was quite lively, some people were driving, some were running towards the city wall, and along the way, various psychics and warriors showed off their magical powers.

Not everyone can see at night. Even though the road is illuminated by street lamps, it is even more difficult to walk on rainy days.

Everyone who passed by chose raincoats.

Without any shelter, they would not be able to bear being exposed to the rain for too long. It's not like they don't have raincoats, so there's no need to torture themselves like that.

The atmosphere was tense and anxious, but there was also a unique sense of quietness.

The sea beast tide attacked at night, which really caught them off guard. Many people had already gone to bed, some were awakened by the bells, and some were sleeping so soundly that they had to be called door to door.

Fortunately, the residents of Haicheng are indeed as "experienced" as the Lord of Haicheng said, although they themselves may not really want to be like this.

The evacuation went smoothly.

Heading towards the nearest shelter,

Many people also went upstream towards the city wall.

Whenever they meet such people, there is no communication between the two sides. Ordinary people consciously make way for them, with respect and worry in their eyes.

They have not forgotten that the prerequisite for their ability to live and work in peace and contentment is the countless psychics and warriors who have sacrificed their lives and shed their blood for Haicheng.

The rate of military enlistment in Haicheng is very high, and there are many people in China who want to join the army. It can be said that joining the army in other countries is a bad experience and is done out of necessity, but in China, it is a matter of honor and is covered with a layer of glory.

The selection for joining the army is very strict, and only those who are outstanding enough can become soldiers.

The garrison of Haicheng lives inside the city because sea beast tides occur frequently.

Lin Chuxia did not ask about the identity of the psychic who came to support. She was a singer and a celebrity by profession, and was currently working part-time. She didn't know many high-level psychics, almost none.

It doesn’t make any difference whether you ask or not, you don’t know him anyway.

What's more, China has always believed in "keeping a hand". There are only a few high-level psychics in the open, but no one knows whether there are more in secret.

When we reached the city wall, the searchlights illuminated the outside of the wall as if it were daytime, and we could see densely packed sea beasts in the distance. If people with trypophobia were here, perhaps the disease could be cured.

There are so many sea beasts in sight.

Some were crawling towards the beach, slowly approaching.

After they came ashore, their speed was not very fast, and some psychics and warriors had already started fighting with them.

The Lord of Haicheng was one of them. He was fighting on equal terms with a sixth-level sea beast. He looked very happy and kept saying "come again". These two words could be heard even from such a distance.
