C262 One Man Against Ten Thousand Beasts
It wasn't that Wu Feng was exaggerating, it was just that Lu Chong's combat strength was just too ferocious.
Compared to the last time they sparred, he was like a completely different person.
Furthermore, those were two high stage Flood Dragon Kings, and their strength was comparable to the Level 9 Martial King of Flame Country.
However, these two Flood Dragon Kings couldn't even withstand a single blow from Lu Chong. One of them had been dismembered, and the other had become Lu Chong's weapon.
If this kind of combat strength was used to deal with them, it would be like using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.
On the other hand, it was extremely difficult for them to deal with a few ordinary middle and low Beast King. It would be difficult to determine the victor within a short period of time.
"Special Envoy Lu's strength has likely already far surpassed that of Old Yan and Old Su. No wonder these two stubborn old men actually took the initiative to retreat that day." Wu Feng thought to himself after realising later.
"But he is only a Martial King Level 4, and he has been cultivating for such a short period of time. How can he be so proficient in so many Heaven Rank martial arts?" Wu Feng couldn't figure out the gap between him and Lu Chong.
Even if it was a genius, there should be a limit to it. This obviously didn't make sense.
"Kill! If we don't hurry, we won't even be able to drink the soup." Seeing Lu Chong sweeping all the way to his side, Wu Feng quickly regained his senses and shouted.
The longsword in his hand thrust out an even sharper sword light. He was determined to take down the Level 6 Beast King even if it cost him his life.
When the rest of the Martial King saw that they were occupying the upper part of the battlefield, they were also shocked by Lu Chong's ferocity. For a moment, they had no time to care about their own safety. They formed two to three teams and charged at their opponent.
Tang Feihu shouted from the stronghold, "Use the laser cannon and cooperate with them. Let's attack the Beast King first."
As for the other mutated beast, within the range of Lu Chong's attack that was over a hundred meters in radius, they fell down in large numbers, saving them a lot of ammunition.
Tang Feihu's words were not exaggerated at all. At this moment, Lu Chong alone was equal to a division, and they were also the team with the best equipment.
"One man against ten thousand men. This kind of momentum, I have only seen it from Elder Chen in the past..." Tang Feihu was amazed.
Lu Chong had already gone crazy from killing. He didn't even need to consume a lot of qi and blood. With just his terrifying physical strength, he could swing the body of the Flood Dragon King and sweep it all the way.
Furthermore, he had the protection of the Golden Bell Shield, so he didn't need to defend at all. He only needed to kill.
The surrounding mutated beast wanted to use their long-range attacks to disturb Lu Chong. However, when their attacks landed on Lu Chong's Golden Bell Shield, it was no different from tickling him.
In half an hour, Lu Chong swept across the coastline that was dozens of miles long. Together with the artillery support from the fortress, almost all of the mutated beast were blocked a kilometer away from the fortress.
The shore was filled with mutated beast corpses, piled up like a mountain. Even the mutated beast that surged up from the sea behind had no place to stand.
When they saw Lu Chong waving the dragon king in his hand, they instinctively felt fear and retreated.
Without the Flood Dragon King's lead, even their race's Beast King had been completely destroyed. Those shrimp soldiers and crab generals that were like a tide finally began to shrink back.
Boom!
Once again smashing the Flood Dragon King's body onto the ground, Lu Chong looked at the remaining two curved horns in his hands in puzzlement. "It can't be."
The Flood Dragon King, who had reached the Level 8, was forcefully smashed to death by him, and even its curved horns were pulled down.
He swept his gaze over the surrounding coastline, and found that there weren't many mutated beasts left.
As for the remaining few Beast Kings, under the support of the remaining Martial King and the fort's artillery fire, they either died or fled.
"This wave of beast tide retreated?" Lu Chong heaved a sigh of relief. Only now did he feel that his arm was a little sore and weak.
He hurriedly swallowed a mouthful of nutritious food. Feeling the rapid recovery of his physical strength and the nourishment of the True Intent of Life on his body, Lu Chong let out a comfortable breath.
One had to say, it was two words - satisfying!1
"Junior Brother Lu, the beast tide has temporarily retreated. Quickly come back and rest and recover. We still have a tough battle to fight in the future." Tang Feihu's voice came from the communication device.
Only then did Lu Chong bring a group of exhausted Martial King warriors back to the stronghold. Under the cheers of the soldiers, they landed beside Tang Feihu.
"Haha... Junior disciple Lu, you have fought well. In this first battle, you have shown our power and prestige. In less than an hour, you have repelled the first wave of beast tide." Tang Feihu laughed heartily.
Lu Chong faced the admiring gazes of the surrounding soldiers. He did not take credit for his pride. Instead, he took the initiative to ask, "How are our injuries?"
Tang Feihu smiled and said, "Apart from a few Martial King soldiers who suffered some minor injuries, the rest of the soldiers did not leave the stronghold, so no one was killed."
"At most, it's some ammunition loss. It's not a problem, we have sufficient reserves."
"You have seen it too. Although the beast tide came in a fierce manner, it was almost impossible to reach the stronghold. Our city protection light wall is still 100% complete."
Lu Chong heaved a sigh of relief, "That's good."
He looked at the shore in the distance, which was full of corpses, and asked, "Do we not need to send people to collect corpses now?"
This large batch of mutated beast corpses was a precious wealth, and also the spoils of war for him and the soldiers.
Tang Feihu said seriously, "Not for now."
"Although we can send robots to collect the corpses to prevent the soldiers from taking risks, that will lose its deterrent effect."
"Placing these corpses, especially the Beast King corpses on the beach, can intimidate those sea mutated beast to a large extent, making them not dare to act rashly."
Lu Chong understood now that he had never thought of this possibility.
"How's the situation on the other battlefront? Do you need us to provide assistance now?" Lu Chong asked again.
The Eastern Sea battlefront was not only in the Devil City. The beast tide was coming menacingly, and it seemed like it was going to bloom on all fronts.
Only then did Tang Feihu become a little more serious, "Apart from us, everyone else is still in a stalemate."
"However, the good news is that no Flood Dragon King has appeared. So, they are still able to withstand it, and there is no danger of falling into the enemy's hands."
Lu Chong nodded and guessed, "Could it be that the main target of the beast tide is the Devil City?"
Tang Feihu mused for a moment before he analyzed, "The Flood Dragon King's intelligence is not low. Especially under the leadership of that emperor, it has a certain level of tactical awareness."
"I think that their primary target is the survival base where the crowd is the most concentrated."
"Therefore, Devil City has become the main focus of the beast tide in the Eastern Sea region."
"I have already contacted the commanders of the other defense lines. The situation they are facing is similar. The places where the attacks are the most intense are the survival bases in the front line." Tang Feihu added.
"After all, the mutated beast also wants to eat large amounts of humans to promote its own evolution."
Lu Chong nodded thoughtfully, then said in puzzlement, "But if the mutated beast realizes that these frontline bases have the strongest defense, wouldn't it turn to attack the weak points and surround us from the mainland?"
Tang Feihu looked at Lu Chong with a slight appreciation and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. However, the possibility of this is not high."
"Because they are sea mutated beast after all. If they want to take a detour into the mainland and surround us, then they will take the initiative to give up their advantage."
"Think about it. Once we cut off their route to the sea, without the support of the endless beast tide, how big of an attack can the mutated beast that enters the mainland unleash?"
"Of course, that will be very troublesome for us. It will be a battle of mutual destruction."
