Chapter Summary
Just then, the laser cannons on the city wall opened fire, accurately hitting the war god-level beast. The other warrior-level ferocious beasts also noticed the laser cannon at this moment, so they began to move quickly. If a city has a large stockpile of artillery shells and cannons, it can naturally hold out for a longer period of time, and may even be able to keep the ferocious beasts from raising their heads.
Just then, the laser cannons on the city wall opened fire, accurately hitting the war god-level beast. Although it didn't hit a vital spot, the war god-level beast lost its fighting ability.
The other warrior-level ferocious beasts also noticed the laser cannon at this moment, so they began to move quickly. No one wanted to become a torch for the laser cannon. The laser cannon was powerful enough, but no matter how fast you turned the cannon, you could not keep up with the speed of these ferocious beasts.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Ning began to charge outwards, but they could only reach a distance of 500 meters. At this point, the officers did not allow them to advance further. The artillery was to attack from 2 kilometers away from the city wall. Whenever a ferocious beast appeared in that area, the artillery would fire with all its might.
Numerous artillery pieces established a blockade along this line, but some ferocious beasts would break through this blockade. Liu Ning and his team's mission was to eliminate these beasts that broke through the blockade.
Liu Ning just used the system to calculate that about 65% of the ferocious beasts will be killed, but 35% will still be able to charge over. Don't underestimate 35%; for the warriors below the city, this is also a very difficult goal to achieve.
About 1,000 meters to Liu Ning's left, a ferocious beast of general level broke through the blockade, but this guy was covered in wounds.
A single shell landing here might have limited casualties on the ferocious beasts, but if it were a barrage of shells, these beasts would have a hard time preserving their strength. Take this warrior-level ferocious beast in front of us, for example. Although it broke through the blockade, it was met with dozens of menacing warriors. These warriors didn't even have 30 seconds to kill it before they chopped it into pieces.
Just as these warriors were cheering, more than 100 warrior-level warriors came from behind the ferocious beasts. Although these beasts were not of a very high level, their numbers were enough, so the first dozen or so warriors were bitten to death. You should know that in the wild, many warrior-level experts will adopt a strategy of encirclement and attack. Now that the two sides were fighting in close combat, our warriors were bound to suffer losses.
Several ferocious beasts appeared directly in front of Liu Ning, but none of them got ahead of him before being easily dealt with by the others. At this moment, Liu Ning even had a strange feeling: was it really that dangerous outside? From all the battle lines, it seemed that humans were gaining the upper hand.
"You stay focused and don't look around. We have the upper hand now, but you'll see soon enough. The number of ferocious beasts is endless, while we only have so many. Our stamina is decreasing. Although we have various medicines to replenish it, we are far too few compared to the number of ferocious beasts. When our stamina can't keep up, the ferocious beasts will just eat us."
Wei Xiong saw Liu Ning's expression and knew what Liu Ning was thinking, so he had to teach this guy a lesson and let him know the fundamental difference between humans and ferocious beasts.
Regarding the issue of numbers on both sides, in terms of total numbers, the human population naturally exceeds that of the ferocious beasts. However, a large portion of the human population is useless; only one warrior can emerge from more than 10,000 people. On the other hand, every ferocious beast born can become a warrior. Fundamentally, we are far behind.
Moreover, their reproductive capabilities are also different. Ordinary people can have two children in their lifetime, which is already quite good. However, ferocious beasts can give birth to offspring every year, and they can have several offspring at a time. In terms of the source, we are at a great disadvantage compared to ferocious beasts.
Humanity's advantage lies in its various modern weapons, which the ferocious beasts cannot match. This is also an important reason why humanity remains undefeated. Although humanity's numbers are fewer than theirs, the blockade we have established with artillery has inflicted huge casualties on them, as evidenced by the ferocious beasts being blown away in the distance.
However, this situation cannot continue. You must know that all the cannons on the city wall are now firing. Putting aside how many shells are stored in the city, just the lifespan of these cannons is a very serious test.
If a city has a large stockpile of artillery shells and cannons, it can naturally hold out for a longer period of time, and may even be able to keep the ferocious beasts from raising their heads. However, if the stockpile is not large enough, then it will probably have to rely on human soldiers to hold the line, which would result in heavy casualties and could even lead to the loss of the entire city.
When the cataclysm first occurred, every city took it upon itself to develop its military, and all sorts of weapons emerged. However, after such a long period of peace, many humans changed their minds and began to develop ideas about construction and economic development. While this may not necessarily be wrong, their development has encroached on the space for military development. Therefore, the current defensive capabilities are not even as good as they were when the cataclysm had just passed.
"Flying beast! Everyone, look! It's coming from the distance! A flying beast..."
Just then, someone in the crowd called out Liu Ning's name and looked up. Not far from them, a huge black cloud was approaching. If you didn't look closely, you would really think it was just a cloud. But if you looked closely, you could see that it was filled with countless flying ferocious beasts.
Liu Ning looked through his binoculars and saw that the room was full of flies and mosquitoes. Before the cataclysm, they were smaller than his little fingernail, but now they were about the size of an old-fashioned television set. Some of them even had long, sharp spikes on their mouths, which looked terrifying.
Liu Ning learned from the internet that their attack method involved launching their poisonous stingers. These stingers were covered in toxins, and once ingested, they would cause immense pain, ranging from amputation to death.
Before Liu Ning and the others could react, these flying beasts charged over. They didn't need to be afraid of the exploding shells on the ground; at this moment, they were Liu Ning's biggest threat.
"The poisonous stinger attacked..."
Once they flew within 800 meters, these flying beasts began attacking with their poisonous stingers, firing them down one by one from the sky. If you couldn't dodge in time, these stingers could definitely pierce your body...
