The fate of Ji Rui Guang, Anman, and the others who chose to break through is unknown, but the defenders at Cloud Summit Ying City, including Mu Xinfey and Guangyao, faced the most dangerous test.
Although most of the monsters were taken away by a larger team, there were still over fifty thousand monsters left to contain them here.
For the enemies that outnumbered them ten to one, the people from areas S and T looked grave.
Through the Cloud Summit People, they had already learned how to distinguish the levels of these so-called monsters, which were green-skin monsters, by height.
Not knowing was one thing, but knowing brought an uneasy feeling.
Because now, surrounding them were monsters with an average height exceeding two and a half meters. Calculating according to height, they were at least level four!
This was just the average height; looking around, there were plenty of monsters over three meters tall, indicating a strength around level five!
Moreover, the Cloud Summit People said that under the same evolution level, monsters were stronger than evolvers of the same level. This situation would improve when human levels were higher, but below level six, it remained the same.
Originally at a numerical disadvantage, now there was a difference in individual strength, causing many to waver.
Their confidence in Ye Zhongming could never match that of the Cloud Summit and Ying City people.
However, when they saw the Cloud Summit setting up their defenses in an orderly fashion, they inexplicably felt a sense of security. This sense of security was even greater than when they were together with tens of thousands of people.
It was a very strange feeling.
The Thunderstorm Tower and magic crystal cannon were erected by the Cloud Summit People, some of whom were checking the magic crystal firearms, while more were playing with the juvenile battle beasts.
The people from the Resistance Zone noticed that only at this moment did these cold women show normal smiles.
"This is a bunch of freaks," Mu Xinfey muttered as she began to bond with Zhao Xingmei. She had already decided that if they could survive this time, she would head to Ying City to select some warriors to form a new battle department. As for Ye Zhongming's influence in Ying City, she was confident she could erase it with some time. In fact, her relationship with the Cloud Summit was in a honeymoon phase, and T Zone's split from the Cloud Summit made her the only one in the Resistance Zone who cooperated with Ye Zhongming. For the time being, Mu Xinfey didn't see Ye Zhongming's influence in the new battle team as a bad thing.
However, her gaze fell on Guangyao, who looked somewhat lonely, as she conversed with Zhao Xingmei, her mind wandering.
The monsters' attack soon began. They were no longer testing; this time they charged with full force from all directions.
On flat ground, the terrain offered no advantage to humans. Everyone quietly held their defenses, waiting for the first contact between the two sides.
Countless skill lights erupted, and the ranged skill attacks commenced.
Fewer people meant elite fighters. The skills unleashed were far more powerful than those of the ordinary evolvers led by Ye Zhongming before, as numerous monsters fell in neat rows. Just a glance estimated that several hundred monsters were directly killed.
This effect startled Mu Xinfey and Zhao Xingmei, even causing the previously dazed Guangyao to take notice.
Only Liang Chuyin and Xia Bai, among the Ying City people, showed no reaction, as if everything was within their expectations.
"So many... professionals?"
In this attack, it was evident that many had professional skills, with some even displaying unique physical traits of their professions.
Out of this five-hundred-man squad, nearly half had professions—this ratio was not just high; it was shockingly so.
Despite many evolvers exceeding the three-star and four-star levels, it was due to the vast number of mutated life forms that had been continuously hunted, obtaining corresponding magic crystals and evolution potions from the roulette.
