CHAPTER 518: CHAPTER 385: RAIN OF ARROWS, EMPTY CITY!

Dozens of black smoke columns rose, and the continuous sound of explosions transformed the once peaceful shelter into a battlefield in an instant!

Incessant sounds of fighting, roars, and screams intermingled with the frequent explosions, while the long spears and swords shimmering with metallic light reflected beam after beam as they were swung relentlessly.

"Sa! Sa!!"

A Lizardman clad in armor raised a golden long knife, roaring at the motionless dragon in the distance, steadfast as a mountain!

Its green scales trembled ceaselessly along with this roar!

The nearly thousand-strong Lizardman legion beside it also roared towards the dragon right in front of them, their longbows raised in unison, with sharp metal arrowheads aimed at that hill!

"Sa!!"

With a long howl from the armored Lizardman, the thousand-strong Lizardman force simultaneously raised their longbows, drawing the bowstrings into full moons!

Arrows like meteor showers, sounds like a thousand birds chirping!

Dense beyond compare, the rain of arrows erupted, a rain of death feared by almost all living beings!

However.

The dragon seemed completely unbothered, bathing recklessly in the deadly arrows, allowing arrows that could easily penetrate mutated creatures’ hides to burst upon its body.

The Lizardmen were horrified to see those arrows bounce off, break against the dragon’s bone armor, without causing even the slightest harm!

"Guoao!!"

The unexpected roar from the dragon scared the Lizardmen into continuous retreat, even knocking over the once proud golden blade armored Lizardman leader who was now dumbfounded with fear!

At the same time, nearly a hundred silver flashes suddenly burst out from various directions, directly charging into the once orderly ranks of the Lizardmen, screams replacing their former arrogant roars!

In the dragon’s eyes, seeing those Lizardmen being continuously slaughtered by the Little Ice Lizards, it promptly turned its focus to another direction.

In the distance over here, there were some humans with a completely different scent from those Lizardmen — Survivors!

"Guoao..." it realized, these enemies were truly not simple this time.

These enemies had deliberately launched such a massive force while the master was gone, swiftly surrounding the area with lightning speed.

Without the defensive barrier of walls, these enemies would not be easy to deal with.

Xiao Meng looked at the surrounding buildings, knowing that even a slight mistake would turn all the materials painstakingly gathered and built by the master into ashes today!

The enemies came with an overwhelming force, and it seemed they had prepared for a long time...

Although they had been defending while counterattacking, the number of enemies was simply too large.

Moreover, they attacked simultaneously from all directions!

They even used explosives that made loud noises and dazzling flames for indiscriminate throwing!

Xiao Meng had reason to believe this group of enemies had planned all these long ago and prepared thoroughly to execute it like this.

It was now somewhat worried whether it could eliminate so many enemies without the walls or master’s aid?

Just then, another wave of arrows came, and Xiao Meng growled lowly, commanding the Little Ice Lizards to counterattack the approaching Lizardmen from another direction once more!

...

At the edge of the battlefield.

Levik bit on a grass root, a cruel smile hanging on his face.

The guards were strong, even stronger than the last time he came here.

It had to be said, Lin Yue’s strength was indeed unfathomable; within just twenty days, he had gained even more terrifying power!

Recalling the last time when he led five hundred men to launch a surprise attack here, Lin Yue singlehandedly wiped them out without a trace.

If it hadn’t been for a nearby Ancient Secret Realm Gate, they might not have survived until now.

Levik closed his eyes, still able to remember how Lin Yue, upon a white flying dragon, easily penetrated their defenses with just two iron spears, successfully reigniting the fear switch among the crazed daredevils. Then, in a frenzy, alongside the once imposing desperados who seemed ready to strangle Lin Yue at any moment, he dived into the Ancient Secret Realm Gate, narrowly escaping with their lives.

On the other side of the Ancient Gate was a shelter; they hadn’t been inside long before the flying Monster Winged Dragons surged in the Secret Realm, almost annihilating them!

Surviving back to the Otherworld from there, less than eighty of the initial three hundred lived!

It was then he thought, being tempted to attack Lin Yue’s shelter and try to kill Lin Yue was an outrageous act.

Truly reaching beyond one’s grasp!

And now, the combat power of Lin Yue’s shelter had once again enhanced, boasting that terrifying dragon almost impervious to arrows, which didn’t exist the last time!

Those indistinguishable white things were also remarkably numerous!

If they had encountered this kind of fighting power last time, perhaps none of the five hundred men would have managed to flee; they would all likely be slaughtered here.

Levik glanced back at several hulking Lizardmen, then shifted his attention further back to the Lizardman leader sitting steadily on a wooden chair.

This was the farthest point, more than two kilometers from Lin Yue’s shelter, even if the dragon charged over, they’d have time to escape.

This time, about fifteen thousand Lizardmen were dispatched, but of those Survivors following them, fewer than two hundred.

And he was the leader of these two hundred, tasked with adapting to changes at the rearmost position.

This battle was somewhat accidental; indeed, they lingered around here, waiting for that person to lead a vast army over.

However, during reconnaissance, they suddenly discovered that the walls of Lin Yue’s shelter were vanishing bit by bit!

And Lin Yue himself even rode that huge flying dragon eastward.

According to the analysis of his subordinates, Lin Yue should have headed toward the Nitrate Ore, where a not too small Lizardman squad was also guarded; if he went there, it was likely to prevent him from returning soon.

This indeed was a fairly suitable opportunity to attack Lin Yue’s shelter!

Lin Yue was undoubtedly strong, no doubt.

But with his shelter lacking walls, only shouldering the dragon with slightly high defense rating as a nuisance, the rest were nothing to fear!

The assault of fifteen thousand Lizardmen, naturally, it would be best if they could conquer it, but should they fail, he had utmost confidence in escaping from this place!

"Regardless of others, I don’t care, but I absolutely will not die; when that person really arrives leading the army, then, I too want my slice of the pie!"

Levik heard the distant sounds of battle cries and roars, glancing again at the entrance of the underground tunnel right behind him, contemplating how many seconds he would need to retreat there and leave, in case Lin Yue returned.

However, a fierce gust suddenly rose; he looked around, puzzled.

But then he suddenly felt a warmth around his neck, his vision tilted abruptly, only to be followed by an extremely rapid plunge into the wild grass on the ground.

With disbelief, he looked around, seeing thirty or so heads also fallen on the ground, while copious amounts of blood spurting from their necks gradually covered their dimming, hollow eyes...
