Chapter 785: Ranged cover
Ye Zhongming clearly remembered the first day he became a four-star, and he learned about demon monsters from his boss.
He knew how these beings deemed more terrifying than mutated lifeforms by the human elites threatened humans.
They had a strong organizational structure and were disciplined. Their bodies were strong, and they were intelligent. They could even be described as cunning.
The two most terrifying points were that they didnt have demon crystals. Their body parts werent good materials, and most werent useful, so killing them wasnt an added value. Secondly, they mainly ate humans and reproduced quickly.
Apart from bringing terror and despair, the apocalypse brought humans evolution. But because their bodies leaned towards evolution, their reproduction ability was reduced, and the number of kids dropped. Along with the uncertain life, human numbers started to drop sharply.
A while later, many large factions realized this problem and started to protect kids and promote birth. This helped slow the trend, but overall, the number of humans dropped.
This caused many to worry about the continuity of the race.
Demon monsters were considered special monsters formed after humans suffered from radiation. Their numbers grew at a terrifying rate. Especially when their intellects grew to a point where they were as intelligent as humans, they became a race that could replace humans. Thus, even if factions werent harmonious, they would attack them once they spotted demon monsters. This became an unwritten rule.
This was an important matter, so the organizations paid close attention.
Honestly, Ye Zhongming was shocked when he saw so many of them. His first thought was to leave, as he felt he wasnt strong enough to deal with so many of them.
But the responsibility formed in him from his last life and his responsibility in this life made him choose to stay and fight.
Once he set his goal, he became extremely firm. His heart started to consider how to wipe out these demon monsters.
Everything around him became things he considered using.
These people that he recruited were a part of his chips.
Cloud Peak was very quick. Even the demon monsters werent able to chase them. When Cloud Peak was back on the hill, they sealed their path.
When the twenty thousand monsters saw the moat and obstacles, they stopped and looked on in shock.
They were smart and knew that it might be a trap.
Ye Zhongming looked from above, and worry appeared in his eyes.
Only a year had passed, and these demon monsters behaved more like humans. Who knew how much they would develop after ten years?
There were roughly seven thousand on the hill. These people had ranged jobs, weapons and skills. They were the main force of the first attack.
The others were resting behind the hill.
This arrangement was because they feared the humans couldnt attack after seeing so many demon monsters. They might end up fleeing to ask for help.
The tallest demon monster gave a low screech and then shouted. The other demon monsters replied with roars and charged at the temporary defense.
Dont panic. Listen up and attack when they get within range. Those on the first-row attack first. Then, the second and third rows. Try to cover them with every attack!
Mo Ye, Xia Lei, and Little Tiger werent here. Ye Zhongming could only command them himself. He shouted so that everyone could hear him.
Close combat, get ready. After the ranged warriors retreat, it would be your time to shine. Remember, just defend the line. Dont charge; maintain shape! This is important as it concerns your lives!
He instructed the ranged job users and then shouted to those survivors hiding on the other side of the hill.
Hua la!
The demon monsters had charged to the obstacles. The moats and abandoned cars caused their speed to reduce.
They had different ways of dealing with these obstacles. Some jumped over them; some used strength to knock them aside. Some dragged some paths and got through the middle.
People who saw these monsters for the first time had dry mouths. These fellows who could jump several meters had extremely strong bodies. Even the smallest one had similar body qualities as a three to four-star evolved.
Moreover, they were bald and looked very similar to humans, making many uncomfortable.
They are demon monsters!
Ye Zhongming reminded them and reduced their mental block.
Based on the data he got from these people, Ye Zhongming calculated the distance. Seeing that the first row of demon monsters got into range, he shouted.
Skill light, as well as guns and arrows, covered the demon monsters. Under the sunset, seven thousand peoples attacks were majestic.
Strictly speaking, these human evolved levels werent high, so their attacks wouldnt be too strong. But the attacks were still amazing when they were stacked together. Moreover, the attacks were amazing when stacked together. Moreover, not all the demon monsters had high levels. There were some basic ones. So when the attacks landed, blood mist appeared and the demon monsters cried out.
From the hill, one could see hundreds of them dying immediately. Many were sent falling and rolling into the moat.
Attack!
The second wave of attacks began, but compared to the first wave, these attacks were weaker. Some skills were on cooldown, and they were forced to retreat.
But maybe because the first wave gave them confidence, they were more accurate this time, which caused a similar effect.
Again!
The third wave landed. Only two thousand could use skills this time, so the effect was much worse. But it still sent many demon monsters back. No one knew if they were dead or not, but at least it delayed them.
Cloud Peak attack!
Ye Zhongming ordered, and the Violent Lightning Turret and Crystal Cannon fired. The Cloud Peak warriors started using the crystal weapons.
This was the attack that gave off the smallest noise, but it caused the largest effect.
The Violent Lightning Turret and Crystal Cannon left a flesh-and-blood path. Anything they touched was sliced into pieces. The crystal guns also formed a net that ripped the demon monsters into shreds.
The battlefield paused. Be it the charging demon monsters and the retreating humans, everyone was stunned.
What Was that?
