Aside from Uta and Sario, Hong Yi, Rakshasa, Lu Liu, even Bone Two and Bone Three were strong.
As for Xi Liu? Very ferocious, but this was expected.
Setting aside his fear of being eaten, Xi Liu was still a reliable teammate.
Upon returning to the back of the city wall, Difu’s energy had only depleted by a quarter, and suddenly she felt somewhat displeased that there weren’t enough chances to fight.
So, Dead Bone gave her the opportunity.
Acting as an intelligent interceptor, precisely intercepting some of the higher-order monsters or the long chanted spells bombarded by them.
Such opportunities were still rare.
Most high-order monsters, or difficult spell-type monster groups, would be obliterated by the Tian Yuan division at the moment they appeared.
“It’s time to ignite the Misfortune Charm Flower.”
Mu Yuan pondered.
Although this surprise attack managed to killed dozens of wisdom monsters, that wasn’t all as assuredly, even more cunning wisdom monsters were hiding or getting washed up by the tide.
But he had already confirmed that his division possessed the power to behead enemies in the midst of thousand troops.
The pressure of the monster tide on the Tian Yuan territory was far from reaching his predicted limit.
“Misfortune Charm Flower (Rare)”
“Description: A strange plant that only grows in the Land of Filth. When ignited, it releases a unique scent, attracting monsters to continuously rush over.”
“Note: This Misfortune Charm Flower can continue to burn for about 6 hours.”
This was a bizarre small flower, the size of a palm, with red patterns on its petals.
Its effect was detrimental to itself but beneficial to the others.
Years ago, the Shen Yao Empire’s scouts used this Misfortune Charm Flower to assassinate outside territories of Tai Xuan’s faction.
When faced with the negative effects brought by the Misfortune Charm Flower, however, there are some circumstances it can be turned into something positive.
Just like at this moment.
Lord Shepherd felt that the number of monsters outside his territory wasn’t enough and the harvest was too little, so he lit the Misfortune Charm Flower.
The bud of the flower gradually started to burn, emanating a faint, indescribable fragrance.
This odd aroma could only be detected within 10 meters, but Mu Yuan knew that a single rare Misfortune Charm Flower could spread its fragrance over several kilometers, even tens of kilometers.
In even more remote areas, it wasn’t completely ineffective.
In the depth of the wilderness, a monster running suddenly switched direction and rushed towards a specific location.
Half an hour later, the number of monsters outside of the Tianyuan territory had obviously increased, and the other defense lines were welcoming wave after wave of smaller tides.
Mu Yuan gazed out towards the city wall, “I have prepared a total of 36 common Misfortune Charm Flowers and 22 rare ones, that’s probably enough right?”
…
In the next two days, Mu Yuan intermittently ignited the charm flowers according to actual conditions.
Sometimes not igniting them and sometimes igniting several at a time.
Red Leaf Territory and the like, relatively closer to Tian Yuan, unconsciously felt much less pressure.
“Is it an illusion?”
“Or is it that the Red Fog Disaster Moon is about to end?”
…
“Indeed, the Red Fog Disaster Moon is about to end, but in these few days before it ends, the monster tide’s charge is at its fiercest.”
“It’s the final outburst of the calamity.”
Isloa stated seriously.
At this moment, she was also standing on the city wall, gazing into the distance, but she didn’t come as a combatant.
She was dressed in a white coat, with a pair of glasses she acquired from somewhere, which made her look intellectual. On the matter, Isloa was quite knowledgeable and elegant in both her demeanor and learning, if Mu Yuan hadn’t seen her immersed in her research before.
The final outburst was a bit of a strain for the Tian Yuan territory, but only a bit.
To this day, the higher-level monsters that have crossed the Black Rock City Wall don’t exceed the number of fingers on two hands, and the entire Black Rock City Wall remained whole, which was the advantage of the Miracle Building. As long as it wasn’t blasted open in a short period of time, the Lord or heroes could use Soul Sand to slowly recover the building.
This ‘slowly’ was ten to a hundred times faster than manual repairs.
Even if the city wall collapsed, it could be restored within less than half a day.
“There are 21 Misfortune Charm Flowers left.”
Mu Yuan had no plans to ignite more.
He certainly needs to reserve some power; the safety of the territory was fundamental. Besides…
He cast his gaze towards the southeast, in the direction of Shiling Town.
The situation in Shiling Town seemed not very optimistic. According to Seventeen’s reports, quite a number of wisdom monsters had gathered there. Using the advantage of concealment, these wisdom monsters had already assassinated a dozen or twenty-something commanders of the defenders.
The monsters there were extremely good at assassinations.
Even if the result of an assassination was the exchange of dozens of high-level intelligent monsters for a human defender commander, it was still a huge profit for the monsters.
It also unsettled the players, making many of them afraid to leave the city wall to fight.
“This is indeed not very good.”
“The true enemy in the monster tide probably gathered outside Shiling Town.”
“In consideration of both emotions and the big picture, Shiling Town must be aided.”
Mu Yuan pondered this, then began to assign people.
“Dead Bone, Hong Yi, Rakshasa, Uta… you all proceed to Shiling Town, locate and kill the monster BOSS inside. Dead Bone, handle the specific arrangements.”
Mu Yuan wanted to choose Duo Lai and Xi Liu to lead initially.
However, Duo Lai and Xi Liu stood out too much—Here stand out refers to being easily targeted by monsters—to use their group attack power was not enough in the face of hundreds of thousands or above monster tides.
Xi Liu, no matter how much it could endure, could not withstand attacks as dense as raindrops.
The absence of fatal weaknesses in Duo Lai did not mean it was invincible.
The most important thing was that the Duo Lai squad was lacking in stealth. They could only fight their way through, and not to mention whether they could reach the outskirts of Shiling Town or not, if they did manage to get there, they would only scare away the high-level intelligent monsters.
