Chapter 2882 Close combat

Puff, puff, puff. . .

In the City of Goddess, the huge energy shield that defends the city continues to shine with dazzling brilliance. As time goes by, the energy shield continues to be worn away and shrunk, and it is about to reach the city head.

Once the energy shield of the city defense formation shrinks to the top of the city, it also means that the city defense battle has entered the stage of close combat. About three full days have passed since the sea beast tide launched a full-scale attack.

For three days, the defenders of the city would dispatch silver-armored warriors of the god general level to attack every day. Each time, they could always kill a certain number of low-level sea beasts, which was only a drop in the bucket compared to the almost endless tide of sea beasts.

Until this moment, Du Long finally understood the reason why those silver-armored warriors attacked, which was to kill as many ordinary sea beasts as possible without completely angering the powerful sea beasts.

Only in this way can we reduce some casualties for the next close combat. Although the number that can be reduced is very limited, it is still better than doing nothing!

Seeing that the energy shield of the city defense formation was close at hand, the extremely ferocious figures of those sea beasts could be seen clearly, which also put a huge pressure on the hundreds of millions of defenders on the city wall.

The entire City of the Goddess has a radius of thousands of miles. This is just the diameter of the city. Calculated, the circumference reaches more than three thousand miles, and the width of the city wall is also amazing. At this moment, it is already full of soldiers guarding the city and those who spontaneously participated in the battle. warriors!

The city walls of more than 3,000 miles can accommodate a frightening number of billions of defenders, but compared to the endless tide of sea beasts outside the city, they are completely insignificant and have no comparison.

"Everyone, prepare for battle! For the countless people in the City of Goddess, and for the survival of all the relatives and friends of the soldiers, no sea beast can be allowed to enter the city under any circumstances..."

A loud voice exploded like thunder over the City of Goddess. The owner of the voice was the city lord Ouyang Lei. Seeing that the war was about to break out, he was obviously doing the final mobilization before the war.

"Every city defense battle... Do we have to face such a large number of sea beasts?! Has any city been breached before?!" While listening to the city lord Ouyang Lei mobilizing before the battle, Du Long couldn't help but He spoke again.

His voice was not loud, and it would not affect Ouyang Lei's pre-war mobilization speech. Ouyang Rong, who had always talked a lot, did not answer this time.

Because this was her first time standing on the city wall to watch a city defense battle, she didn't know much about the previous city defense battles. At most, she only got some simple information from some books or conversations between relatives and friends.

"This sea beast tide... seems to be even bigger than the last time!" In the end, the third uncle who guarded the three brothers and sisters answered on his behalf: "It is not uncommon for cities on land to be attacked by sea beast tides. This time If you want to defend the City of the Goddess... I'm afraid you will have to pay an extremely heavy price!"

A lot of information can be heard from his extremely heavy tone. The three city lords in front of him have already put down their previous resentment towards Du Long. In his eyes, there is only the endless tide of sea beasts.

There are no power struggles such as countries in this world. There are only two real large-scale power struggles: one is land creatures, and the other is sea creatures.

Therefore, when land creatures face the invasion of sea beasts, they are often able to put aside some personal grudges and turn to the outside world in unison!

The three city lords in front of them could be regarded as severely humiliated by Du Long before. Now, facing the invasion of the sea monster tide, the two sides immediately became comrades in the same camp.

He is not worried that Du Long will remain on the sidelines while the tide of sea beasts invades the City of Goddess. Once the city wall is lost, every land creature in the city will have to fight for survival!

"This wave of sea beasts is bigger than the last time?!" Du Long immediately grasped the key point of the other party's words and asked again: "Then our defense force this time...compared to the last time? Who is stronger?!"

"It should be said..." The three city lords glanced at the defenders on the city wall worriedly, and then replied in a deep voice: "It must be weaker than the last time's defenders!"

"Weaker than last time?!" Du Long frowned and asked, "Why is this?!"

"Why else?!" Before the three city lords could answer this time, Ouyang Rong immediately rolled his eyes and continued: "There is only a hundred years between them. Even if we use time to accelerate the world to cultivate future generations, then It’s impossible to train too many elite soldiers to defend the city in such a short period of time!”

Du Long raised his eyebrows slightly. He had already heard some useful information from Ouyang Rong's answer, that is, in order to fight against the sea beasts, the land creatures in this world would accelerate the cave space for a certain period of time to cultivate warriors.

When we first entered the city, although there were quite a few defenders in the city, they were many times fewer than before!

He originally thought that the newly added defenders should be brought from other city conveyor belts, but now it seems that is not the case, but they are dispatched from the time acceleration space where they train warriors!

If it were a secret realm in the world where time was accelerated a million times, a hundred years in real time would be equivalent to a hundred years of epochs. It should not be a big problem to cultivate a large number of warriors and elite warriors in the realm of god generals.

"Why doesn't the city lord ask for help from other cities?! Those cities that have not been invaded by the tide of sea beasts should be able to allocate troops to support the City of the Goddess!" Du Long asked another question again.

It would be extremely difficult to defend the city with the troops at hand. Even if other cities were unwilling to provide free support, they could still choose to borrow troops and then repay them when the other side was attacked in the future.

"Except for requesting limited support from the God-Emperor Realm powerhouses from the Eternal Temple, it is simply impossible to seek support from other cities. Those cities are still eager for the City of Goddess to be captured, so that they have excuses and opportunities to send troops to capture the City of Goddess. Control!" Ouyang Rong shook his head and replied directly.

"I understand!" Du Long suddenly nodded and said: "That is to say... Under normal circumstances, land cities cannot attack each other. Only after they are captured by a tide of sea beasts can they compete for control of the city?!"

"Haha!" Ouyang Rong looked at Du Long with strange eyes, and then chuckled in a strange way: "You are quite strong, but you don't even know the most basic common sense issues. If you hadn't been able to safely Through the detection of the city gate mirror, I really doubt whether you are a spy sent by the sea beast!"

Du Long touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment at being ridiculed by her. Although he was not a spy from the sea beast side, he was not a land creature in this world either. Ouyang Rong's words still made him feel a little guilty.

"That's right!" Seeing Du Long's embarrassed look, Ouyang Rong added again: "The land creatures in our world all respect the Eternal Temple. The temple will never allow land creatures to kill each other. Otherwise, you will be severely punished by the temple!"

"But there are policies and countermeasures. Many family forces will cultivate their strength secretly and wait until the opportunity comes before taking action to compete for a certain city..."

Ouyang Rong actually began to patiently answer Du Long's questions. Under her explanation, Du Long also gained more knowledge about the world.

It turns out that the Ouyang family was secretly developing its strength, and then took advantage of a special opportunity to take control of the City of Goddess. As a result, the family cultivated a Goddess Emperor.

It is a pity that as the goddess emperor ascended and left, the Ouyang family fell into a period of weakening, and its strength continued to decline in the battles to defend the city.

"That..." After listening to Ouyang Rong's story, Du Long asked another question: "Before the goddess ascended, didn't the Ouyang family give birth to any other powerful person in the God Emperor realm?!"

"How can it be possible to be born again..."

"Ahem!" Before Ouyang Rong could finish his words this time, the three city lords immediately coughed twice and said: "This issue is a high-level secret that cannot be easily revealed to others. We forgive our inconvenience for spreading it to others!"

Ouyang Rong seemed to realize that he had spoken too much, and immediately shut up and stopped talking. Although Du Long was speechless after hearing half of it, he could only silently accept the reality.

‘It is impossible to be born again. . . A strong person in the God-Emperor realm? ! Why it is impossible to be born again. . . Is it also related to the fact that this city will be attacked by a tide of sea beasts? ! ’

Du Long secretly made a guess based on the existing information, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the goddess temple behind him. It seemed that it should be related to some kind of opportunity that could allow people to break through and reach the realm of the God Emperor.

'Could it be that. . . This kind of opportunity that can help monks break through and reach the realm of the God Emperor can only help one breakthrough at a time. . . And then it fails? ! ’

‘No, that’s not right! Now that it has failed, why are those sea beasts still aggressively attacking the city? ! ’

‘Could it be that because of the goddess’ ascension, that kind of opportunity that can help people break through has appeared again? ! ’

Being distracted, various possibilities kept popping up in Du Long's mind, and he continued to be distracted and wanted to communicate with the brothers and sisters. Unfortunately, the brothers and sisters seemed to have no intention of talking and began to focus on Yue Yue. Come to the city defense formation that is getting closer.

"Almost!" Suddenly, City Lord Ouyang Lei's voice boomed again: "All energy cannons are ready! Prepare! Fire!!"

After Ouyang Lei issued instructions one after another in a hurry, as the last word was sounded, the muzzles on the city wall suddenly burst into dazzling light.

Boom, boom, boom. . .

A series of blue energy light groups shot out from the muzzles one after another. Du Long was a little dumbfounded as he watched those energy light groups directly pass through the city's protective energy shield.

Outside the energy shield, there was a dense tide of sea beasts. When the blue light group exploded among them, a large area of ​​sea beasts around the light group was cleared on the spot.

For a moment, the broken wall limbs of various sea beasts were scattered in all directions, and the water that was already dyed red became even brighter.

"I didn't expect... the city defense formation would actually let those energy cannons shoot out. In that case... why didn't the city lord fire the cannons earlier?!" Du Long stared at the scene of gunfire with wide eyes, a little puzzled. Di whispered.

"The more lethal energy cannons can be maximized if you get closer!" Ouyang Rong was also excitedly watching the scene of artillery fire killing enemies. Hearing Du Long's voice, he immediately explained triumphantly: "Every time these energy cannons are fired, It requires a large amount of energy crystals and cannot be used unlimitedly!"

"I see!"

With the bombardment of a large number of energy cannons, a large area of ​​the sea beast tide next to the protective shield was directly cleared, and the pressure on the city defense formation naturally decreased sharply.

This situation did not last long, as the endless tide of sea beasts ignored the casualties and continued to rush towards the energy shield without fear of death.

The artillery fire on the city wall did not fire continuously, but waited until the number of sea beasts on the edge of the energy shield was full again before launching a new round of focused fire.

Rumble. . .

The terrifying artillery fire was constantly harvesting the lives of the sea beasts, but the tide of sea beasts showed no signs of retreating and was still frantically attacking the city defense formation as before.

As time passed, the energy shield of the city defense array finally shrank to the city wall. The defenders on the city wall finally began to face the tide of sea beasts, and fierce hand-to-hand fighting ensued.

vomit!

After witnessing with his own eyes that the outermost city defenders were blown to pieces, with all kinds of broken limbs and arms scattered in all directions, and even scenes of sea beasts viciously biting the remains of the soldiers, Ouyang Rong, the daughter of the city lord, finally couldn't help but vomit.

For this always pampered daughter of the city lord, it was not too difficult to accept the scene of sea beasts being killed before, but when she saw the scene of the city defenders being tortured and killed, the uncomfortable feeling was magnified countless times in an instant.

Du Long glanced at Ouyang Rong meaningfully, without intending to laugh at her, and turned to look at the fierce battle outside the city wall.

It can be seen that the soldiers guarding the city can be regarded as elite divisions, and the ordinary soldiers have at least reached the level of warriors (Emperor of Heaven).

As for those silver-armored generals, they are all strong in the realm of divine generals (gods). Until now, the war has begun, and the highest number of the defenders have only silver-armored generals participating in the battle.

Du Long has always wanted to see the battle scenes of the powerful people in the Golden Armored God King Realm. Only through the strength shown by the other party, can he judge what level of cultivation the Golden Armored God King's strength matches the outside world.

So far, he can only guess that the strength of those golden-armored god-kings should be equivalent to the realm of immortal creation in the outside world, but it has never been verified by reality!

On the tall city wall, the top of the wall is very wide. Currently, only the outermost periphery is outside the energy shield of the city protection formation, and that is also the front line where soldiers are fighting hand-to-hand.

As for the inner area of ​​the city wall, it is still under the protection of the city defense formation. The city defenders standing inside can not only watch the battle from the sidelines, but also participate in the battle outside.

The energy shield of the city protection formation is still slowly shrinking. As time goes by, the war will spread to the entire city wall sooner or later. No one needs to worry that they will not have a chance to participate in the war.
