"Third Elder! What should we do now? Please give the order quickly!" The warriors, seeing the scene before them and recalling their hometowns, were already in a state of panic. The only person they could rely on was their leader, the temporary city lord Lin Jueying.
However, after waiting for most of the day, they still had not received any orders from Lin Jueying, causing everyone to look in his direction.
The surrounding warriors could not see Lin Jueying's expression, but those closer to him and of higher rank were shocked to find that Third Elder Lin Jueying had a dazed look in his eyes, his face alternating between green and white. They couldn't help but exclaim.
"Give an order? What order?" Lin Jueying pointed grimly at the numerous Toxic Corpses outside. "Even if we kill them all, what difference does it make? They will still create more Toxic Corpses outside. We would be sacrificing our lives to fight against these lifeless corpses. And even if we miraculously win this battle, what then? The area around Feather City has already become a dead zone! Even if we drive them back, without the surrounding villages, Feather City has lost its meaning! What are we even protecting?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Long, Shunshen, Cai Burin, and others turned pale, while the soldiers under Feather City felt their hearts sink.
"Third Elder! Please be cautious with your words!" Shunshen interrupted Lin Jueying sternly.
At that moment, a figure flashed past him, and Wang Long charged forward, delivering a kick that sent the person flying!
"Lord Wang Long, what are you doing…"
"This is not the time to argue about such things!" Wang Long shouted angrily, his eyes wide open as he slowly scanned the crowd of Feather City.
They had already witnessed Wang Long's astonishing strength before, and now with his overwhelming presence bearing down on them, the warriors who had previously seen him disrespecting Lin Jueying were all intimidated into silence.
"Feather City is in grave danger. I know you are all worried about your families and hometowns, but remember this: if Feather City falls apart now, you will have no hometown left and no family! At that point, you won't even have the chance to avenge your loved ones!"
"But just now, Third Elder said that even if we defend Feather City, what will it matter? And even if we talk about revenge, we still won't be able to protect our Feather City," some warriors who had seen their loved ones among the Toxic Corpses felt a surge of fighting spirit from Wang Long, but many others—especially those not originally from Feather City—remained hesitant. To them, sacrificing themselves for a city that was destined to fall seemed hardly worthwhile.
"Do you know how many death villages are out there and how many Toxic Corpses there are? Even if you want to leave Feather City, do you really think it's a good choice to leave without knowing the situation outside? What if their goal is to use these seemingly endless Toxic Corpses to instill panic in us so that we flee? Wouldn't that play right into their hands?"
"Uh…"
Those who had initially resolved to leave immediately lost their determination.
Wang Long finally managed to temporarily unite their scattered hearts with this statement, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Of course, he didn't actually know if there were any traps waiting for them outside. However, he couldn't rule out that possibility. As someone in a position of power, sometimes one must treat others with sincerity, but at other times, one must use deception to guard against the lower ranks. Although Shunshen held a higher status and was stronger than him, he was far less experienced than the seasoned Wang Long. This gave him enough confidence to kick Lin Jueying off the city wall and take over command directly.
However, he couldn't be considered deceitful; if they didn't unite now, when the Toxic Corpses truly approached and they took action, even if they managed to fend off this wave of attacks, they would be unable to maintain the City Wall defense against the poisonous mist if it got too close.
"All soldiers, listen up!" Seeing Shunshen nod slightly in acknowledgment of his leadership position in Feather City, Wang Long felt even more assured. He shouted loudly from the highest point of the city wall, "Everyone, divide into teams based on your respective Spiritual Essence attributes. Do not act independently or engage in close combat with the enemy. Now, Water Element experts will cooperate with the city defense formation to cast the Water Elemental Barrier at the front line. Position the Water Elemental Barrier six feet forward. The experts of Earth Element will follow behind with the Earth Wall Shield for defense. Although the toxic gas can seep through the Water Elemental Shield, it cannot penetrate the Earth Elemental Shield. Experts of wind, fire, and thunder should prepare for ranged attacks against the enemy. Remember! The farther away we can kill these Toxic Corpses, the less impact we will suffer from the poisonous smoke!"
"Yes!"
Hearing the powerful confidence in Wang Long's voice and his reasonable deployment strategy, which completely disrupted their squad's combat methods, no one raised any objections.
Seeing the troops following orders, Wang Long nodded inwardly. After all, these warriors were battle-hardened elites. Although their morale had been temporarily shaken, they quickly entered combat mode without needing his further concern. Wang Long then turned his attention to the approaching Toxic Corpses.
"Lord Shunshen!" Wang Long suddenly shouted loudly and then shot forward like a Spirit Origin Bullet into the midst of those Toxic Corpses.
"Oh!" The soldiers at the back of Feather City, witnessing Wang Long's reckless actions, gasped in astonishment. Even a somewhat dazed Lin Jueying quickly stood up to look at the army of Toxic Corpses.
What was he trying to do? Did he not realize that although those Toxic Corpses lacked combat ability, once killed, the poisonous mist they released would corrode his body no matter how strong he was? He had just issued commands clearly; why was he now charging into the midst of those Toxic Corpses?
Without even a weapon or having summoned a Water Elemental Barrier, he plunged straight into the main group of Toxic Corpses, unleashing bursts of lightning!
This guy was indeed as they had thought!
He was crazy!
A series of Thunder Element Power surged through heaven and earth like a storm from above, raining down sheets of Thunderlight!
The entire sky lit up as if it had entered broad daylight.
Although the Thunderlight still illuminated the area where Wang Long was located, he first cleared out the surrounding area filled with Toxic Corpses.
However, this left everyone puzzled. While it seemed that he wouldn't be harmed by the poisonous mist immediately, he was already enveloped in a thick cloud of it, making it impossible for him to break free!
At that moment, Shunshen stood atop the city wall.
"Void Summoning!" An invisible spiritual light shot into the crowd of Toxic Corpses, accurately landing beside Wang Long.
At this time, the sky was already interwoven with strands of Thunder Net descending!
"Even if he doesn't get killed by the mist, he'll probably be electrocuted by his own Thunderlight!"
A faint smile appeared on Wang Long's face as he noticed that the nearby Toxic Corpses had just begun to react and were lunging toward him. Wang Long decided not to engage with them and swiftly dove into the beam of light shot by Shunshen.
The light suddenly expanded, enveloping Wang Long completely. In the blink of an eye, Wang Long had vanished without a trace along with that beam of light!
Seeing their target suddenly disappear, the Toxic Corpses stood frozen in place. Just then, the Thunder Net in the sky had already descended!
