Chapter 349 Negligence of Duty
In the herd of beasts this time, there are some monsters with innate supernatural powers mixed in. These monsters can use spells to attack the monks stationed on the city wall.
The monks on the city wall kept falling down, which made the small manpower even more stretched.
Facing monsters nearly ten times larger than their own, many monks on the city wall had lost their minds at this time, and could only attack crazily, only seeing the monsters that kept coming.
Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", and a section of the city wall four or five feet long collapsed under the savage collision of countless monsters.
Some monks on the city wall were buried by the collapsed city wall before they could escape in time.
Countless monsters rushed towards the stronghold along the gap in the city wall.
At this critical moment, Wang Hong rode Xiaopeng to the gap.
Before the people arrived, Wang Hong threw out a large net and directly covered the gap in the city wall.
The big net caught all the monsters crowded in the gap, and this net caught hundreds of monsters, and then the big net shrank, and these hundreds of monsters were tightly bound in the net.
Wang Hong stuffed this net of hundreds of monsters in the gaps in the city wall, letting these monsters act as the city wall temporarily.
"If you break the city wall, use your bodies to compensate." When Wang Hongzhuan left, he was still thinking about this idea in his mind.
Another group of monks quickly stood on the temporary city wall made up of monsters and continued to fight. Although the monsters under their feet were still struggling and twisting, it did not affect the immortal cultivators to stand up and fight.
After Wang Hong left this gap, he rode Xiaopeng and flew over the beast tide. At this time, the flying monsters had been wiped out, and the air was free for him.
He took out a medicine bottle from the storage bag. He did not know what precious items were contained in this medicine bottle, but he protected it layer by layer, and pasted a dozen of sealed talismans.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter breaking the layers of seals, he uncorked the bottle, and a pleasant floral fragrance wafted out of the medicine bottle immediately.
Wang Hong was already holding his breath at this time, not daring to inhale the slightest bit. This was the pink skull flower pollen he had collected.
Although he and Xiaopeng had taken the special antidote, they still didn't dare to inhale too much.
He sprinkled this small bottle of pollen very evenly to the group of monster beasts below. Under his careful control, this small bottle of pollen spread over half of the group of beasts.
While he was spraying poison, another section of the city wall was knocked down by a monster.
Fortunately, more than 2,000 reinforcements from Yuan Jin's stronghold had arrived at this time, and 1,000 people were assigned to defend the gap in time.
At the same time, Luo Zhongjie and the others who went to recruit reinforcements have also returned. After returning, they patrolled the city wall, killing those monsters that jumped on the city wall.
The pollen that Wang Hong sprinkled only took a few breaths before it had an effect.
Some monsters were rushing forward, but suddenly stood still, and had already fallen into an illusion. They didn't know what happened in the illusion, and some even let out joyful moaning sounds.
But the monster beasts that were not poisoned behind would not stop moving forward. Pushed and trampled, some monster beasts were awakened from the illusion with great reluctance.
Some of those who didn’t wake up became stepping stones for all the demons, and they could never get up again.
Because of Wang Hong's poisoning, the monster's attack strength has dropped by at least half, while the human race's defense has increased due to the arrival of reinforcements.
Under this ebb and flow, although the monster race is still several times that of the human monks, the battle situation is gradually stabilized by the human monks.
Moreover, after the monsters passed through the area where Wang Hong poisoned them, many of them would still be poisoned. Even if they were awakened, they would still die from the poison in the end.
It's just that after being awakened, there is a lot less happiness before dying.
After a day of continuous fighting, although the defending cultivator was exhausted, he still launched a counterattack against the monster.
Everyone can also see that the state of the monster is not right now, and it happens to take advantage of its illness to kill it.
When the battle at this stronghold finally turned the tide of the battle, it was about to turn defeat into victory.
At this time, another group of tens of thousands of monsters was approaching Bai Yikui's stronghold.
Bai Yikui was playing with a nun who established the foundation in his arms in the cave.
"Brother Bai! You really don't plan to go for reinforcements, aren't you afraid to settle the score for you when the time comes?"
The female cultivator put her arm around Bai Yikui's neck and asked seductively.
"Of course I have to go! Now that the monster race is coming, how can we monks just sit back and watch! Just wait for me to gather all the troops, and I will rush to Feng Chang's stronghold to rescue immediately."
Bai Yikui said solemnly that people who didn't know the inside story saw him and thought he was a righteous monk.
"Hee hee! Then when do you want to count?" the female cultivator asked coquettishly.
Bai Yikui heard the words, plucked a handful of crooked vellus hairs from the nun's body, and counted them pretendingly.
"Am I counting? One, two, three, four..."
At this moment, a communication talisman flew in from outside the cave.
Bai Yikui didn't like this communication talisman that flew in suddenly and ruined his elegance.
After shattering the messenger, he continued to play some small games he liked.
Just a moment later, another communication talisman flew in from outside. Bai Yikui didn't even look at it any more, and shattered it angrily again.
Only a few breaths later, another message talisman flew into his cave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBai Yikui was furious when his good deed was interrupted. He felt that the communication talisman might leave him with demons in the future.
"Urgent! I just won't go to the rescue, what can you do to me?
I want to see who is so persistent and insists on sending a message to Lao Tzu, I have to peel his skin. "
Up to this point, Bai Yikui still thought he was being urged to rescue him, and was very annoyed in his heart. He reached out to take the message talisman, and a familiar voice came out from the message talisman.
"Commander! A large group of monsters are rushing towards us in front of us. There are at least 50,000 of them, and the distance is less than one mile."
The voice in the communication talisman seemed very urgent, obviously it was a very urgent time, otherwise they would not dare to disturb Bai Yikui easily.
Bai Yikui didn't even have time to tidy up his robes, and walked out of the cave in a panic.
I found that the people in the stronghold were running around, and they were in a mess.
It was found that some people had already taken advantage of the chaos and fled, while others were packing up their belongings and preparing to escape.
Bai Yikui grabbed a subordinate of the Foundation Establishment Period who was relatively close on weekdays, and asked loudly, "Why did you run away first?"
The subordinate said in a panic:
"Commander Bai, the monsters are coming too ferociously, there is absolutely nothing we can stop them.
Besides, the monster has already arrived under the city wall, so it is too late to ask for help now. "
Bai Yikui looked up and looked outside the stronghold, and saw that the black herd of beasts had already reached the city wall, and it only took a moment to jump up the city wall.
The monks in the stronghold are all in chaos at this moment, and they can no longer organize effective resistance.
"Qing Xuzong wants to use us as cannon fodder, and we can only die now if we stay.
If the green hills remain, we are not afraid of lack of firewood. Now we just need to escape from the right and wrong place. The world is so big, where can we go? "
Seeing that Bai Yikui was still hesitating, this subordinate persuaded him again.
