The bright sunshine spilled over the giant wall, reflecting the unique sheen of tal.
The towering wall, over ten ters high and two ters thick, seed endless at a glance.
The interior of this endless wall was solid rock, with a dark tallic layer on the surface, covered with thorns of iron spikes below five ters high.
So of these iron spikes were straight, while others had beco curved, evidently having been attacked.
A layer of dark red marks covered so of the iron spikes.
These were the dried remnants of blood.
Around these thorny iron spikes, there were also rows of dark cannon barrels, with a diater of forty to fifty centiters.
And such cannon barrels were almost everywhere on the surface of the wall.
This was a defensive fortress, also a war stronghold.
The giant wall was the symbol of the Satellite City!
A steel Great Wall forged over more than ten years and hundreds of thousands of lives.
Although so people called it a cage.
However, this cage surrounded the Satellite City, protecting it from demon beast attacks.
It was the guarantee of safety for the city’s residents.
Without the giant wall, over a million residents would be directly exposed to demon beasts.
Above the giant wall, every hundred ters there were three people patrolling, gathered together at this mont, looking relaxed, enjoying the sunlight.
"The start ti of the King Plan has been decided, after waiting so long it’s finally going to begin."
"I wonder how many people will beco Kings this ti!"
"At least one-third!"
"Are you including helpers?"
"Of course not, including helpers, even one-fifth would be good."
Five or six people chatted casually, talking as they worked.
Their job was to monitor the surroundings of the Base City for any demon beast uprisings.
Demon beasts generally don’t riot.
Even if they do, they can be detected imdiately, and there’s ample response ti.
Before a massive demon beast uprising, artillery would comnce bombing first.
Zhouyun City is very close to Shangjing, within a hundred kiloters straight line distance, compared to other satellite cities, it’s more secure, having three Guardians.
If faced with unsolvable danger, Shangjing would also intervene imdiately.
So there’s no need to worry too much about demon beast sieges.
Even if there is, it’s only a small-scale demon beast pack, nothing to be afraid of.
"Xiaoling, isn’t your idol Ye Xing? Do you think he can beco a King?"
An old man looked at a young boy, smiling as he asked.
The young boy was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, with an ordinary appearance, lots of acne on his face, looking like a senior high school graduate.
He thought for a mont and said, "The possibility for Ye Xing is not high, Bu Yuanlong might, Lin Feng might as well."
"Lin Feng?"
The old man exclaid in surprise, evidently not expecting this answer, "Isn’t your idol Ye Xing? How could you think Lin Feng might beco a King?"
Although Lin Feng was acknowledged as a super genius, with exceptional talent, he was really too young.
A King at the age of 21?
What kind of international joke is this!
Breaking through the Seventh Grade at 21 is already very impressive.
"Because he is Ye Xing’s Boss!"
The boy called Xiaoling naturally replied.
"Haha."
This reason left the others slightly stunned, then they couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"Even if Lin Feng is the Boss, it doesn’t an he’s the strongest!"
Another young man countered.
Xiaoling looked towards the distant demon beast pack and retorted, "If he isn’t the strongest, how does he command respect?"
The people wanted to retort but couldn’t find a reason for a mont.
This statent indeed had so truth.
Ye Qiu and Yun Kai are excusable; after all, the age difference isn’t big, but who are Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi?
They’re All-Star Glory players!
To willingly be subordinates, Lin Feng surely must have more than just superficial strength.
If it’s about talent, then Yun Kai should be ranked first in talent.
Is his charisma really that great?
It’s a simple logic.
Everybody knows this, just they couldn’t believe it.
"Perhaps..."
The young man was about to refute again, but his voice abruptly stopped, he looked into the distance with a horrified expression:
"The demon beasts are suddenly rioting!"
For observers, demon beast riots were common occurrences, happening once or twice a month.
But without any signs, and with so much commotion, it was the first ti seeing it.
"It’s not a riot; it’s a siege! A planned siege."
The old man said solemnly.
At this mont, the demon beasts gathered more and more, numbering from thousands to tens of thousands in just one or two minutes.
Although demon beasts are cruel by nature and have a hunger for blood, they also possess intelligence.
Compared to wild beasts, they have higher intelligence, so even comparable to humans.
Under normal circumstances, demon beasts wouldn’t recklessly attack a Satellite City, unless driven by a King Level demon beast.
But even if it were a King Level demon beast, or even an Emperor Level demon beast, they couldn’t drive so many demon beasts.
Besides, if demon beasts gathered on such a large scale, it’d be easily discovered.
With preparedness, the demon beast pack could be dispersed early on.
But facing this seemingly endless army of demon beasts, rushing towards Zhouyun City madly without any warning, in just five minutes, over a hundred thousand demon beasts gathered.
Such doomsday-like scenes instill fear.
Leave one with an everlasting mory.
This cannot be explained as a demon beast riot.
"Roar! Roar!"
"Howl! Howl!"
A frantic wave of howls and roars ca like a tsunami.
The giant wall trembled.
Every corner of the city trembled.
The demon beasts continued to gather, more and more, pairs of ferocious beast eyes and roars made people shiver.
"It’s man-made!"
The old man insisted.
He didn’t move, and neither did the others.
Such a commotion didn’t require them to send out signals.
At this ti, the piercing alarm had already resounded throughout Zhouyun City, red flas lit up half the sky.
In Zhouyun City, over a million residents appeared fearfully on the streets, so running out from their hos, others from companies and factories, with piercing alarms and blood-red smoke in the sky echoing around them, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
That was a fear from the heart.
A fear never felt before!
"Red Alert!"
"What’s happening? What exactly is going on?"
Frightened questions and the cries of children rang out.
Residents of the Satellite City were no strangers to alerts; they occurred every month.
There are five levels of alert.
Blood alert is the highest level of alert, many people have never seen it in their lifeti.
Blood signifies that the great wall is likely unable to hold.
There is a risk of the city falling and people dying.
"Attention, blood alert, blood alert, all residents please enter the nearest air-raid shelters in your area in an orderly manner, please give way to children, the elderly, and those with mobility issues. Do not panic, the governnt will make every effort to protect the safety of residents...."
As the ground shook violently, the broadcast voice spread to every corner of the city.
The speaker’s tone was steady, obviously trying to maintain calm, yet people still detected a trace of panic and fear in his voice.
.....
Just as Zhouyun City issued the blood alert, Lin Feng’s team also noticeably felt the vibrations.
Crack crack.
The glass made cracking sounds.
The building was slightly shaking.
The obvious tremor changed everyone’s complexion, and they instinctively looked out the window at the sky.
Soon they saw the blood-red smoke.
"Blood alert!"
Ye Qiu exclaid.
No one is unaware of what a blood alert signifies.
Unless there was a risk of the city being broken, the satellite city would not issue such an alert.
"Even if it’s a demon beast siege, shouldn’t release a blood alert, right?"
Everyone looked shocked.
There was a bit of panic amidst the shock.
A blood alert indicates that the satellite city cannot resist, and there is a risk of the city being broken.
As a satellite city near Shangjing, Zhouyun City’s strength is among the top, never having issued a red alert.
"The retaliation has begun."
Lin Feng’s expression was heavy.
His unease was confird.
His premonition was correct, the alien race would not let the King Becoming plan proceed smoothly.
Just as the ti for the King Becoming plan was confird to officially begin, the retaliation of the alien race ca.
It ca so impatiently.
"Check the news."
Lin Feng said.
Yue Mingming hurriedly turned on the TV, and the news was broadcasting a scene at that ti.
An aerial shoot-down scene.
Endless demon beasts, like dense black dots, were charging towards the great wall, and as the cara zood in, there were even advanced demon beasts among them.
"Conservative estimates indicate there are 200,000 demon beasts."
Bu Yuanlong said slowly, his tone heavy.
Such a scale of demon beast siege would not be easy for Zhouyun City, let alone Shangjing with its Guardian Divine Artifact.
"The demon beast siege had no warning, over 100,000 demon beasts reached outside Zhouyun City within a few minutes, soone must be deliberately manipulating this!"
Yun Tianqi’s voice trembled slightly.
Can Zhouyun City withstand such an attack?
Without a doubt, it cannot.
If the great wall is breached, millions will beco food for demon beasts.
Thinking of the scene of rivers of blood, he couldn’t help but shudder a bit.
"Dream Celestial King! It must be that bastard!"
There’s no need to think too much; among both the Human Race and Alien Race, there are only a handful of people with this capability, maybe two or three.
"Such a large-scale demon beast riot, even that bastard must have prepared for one or two months, it seems this ti Zhouyun City...."
Lin Feng didn’t need to say more; the prospects are bleak.
Such a riot is difficult even for an Emperor to intervene.
Faced with the mad attack of tens of thousands of demon beasts, even an Emperor would find it hard to resist.
If encircled, one might accidentally fall.
At this mont, the TV footage turned, showing images of other countries’ cities being attacked.
"Hua Country, the Russian Federation, and the United States.... this ti the alien race targets are all major countries."
Ye Qiu murmured to himself.
While cities in other major countries were attacked, none could compare with Zhouyun City in scale.
Lin Feng shook his head, saying coldly, "It is not targeting major countries, but the students!"
"Students?"
Dong Yunan and the others looked puzzled, not knowing what it had to do with them.
"What does this have to do with us? Could the alien race have a conspiracy?"
Dong Yunan looked directly at Lin Feng and asked.
"It’s not a conspiracy, it’s an open sche!"
Ye Xing sneered.
He obviously understood why Zhouyun City was besieged by demon beasts at this ti.
"What do you an, say it quickly."
Dong Yunan urged.
Ye Xing explained, "If the alien race just wanted revenge, why choose Zhouyun City? As a satellite city affiliated with Shangjing, Zhouyun City ranks in the top three among satellite cities in strength!"
"At this ti, Shangjing is almost gathering all the strong from the nation, the majority are students and helpers participating in the King Becoming plan...."
Before Ye Xing could finish, Dong Yunan understood.
After she understood, her face turned even paler.
This is indeed an open sche!
The siege of the city by demon beasts is fake, the real reason is to hunt down the students and assistants participating in the King Becoming plan.
To hunt the future Kings.
And the lives of millions of Zhouyun City’s residents are just bait.
"Damn insidious!"
Yu Qiao’s eyes were as venomous and cold as a snake’s.
At this mont, all the students and assistants beca the focus and topic of people’s heated discussion, and even heroes and idols in the eyes of many.
Can they remain indifferent to the lives of millions in Zhouyun City?
Even if so people can, disregarding the emotions and psychological burden of guilt.
But how should such people respond to public opinion attacks?
People who can ignore the lives of their compatriots, can they still gain the admiration and support of fans?
Even if they truly don’t care about this, will the country cultivate such individuals?
This is the open sche of the alien race.
You are aware of its plan, yet powerless to resist.
Though the alien race is not human, they understand human nature very thoroughly.
"Damn it."
Yun Tianqi clenched his fist, cursing.
The others also had faces full of anger and helplessness, their emotions exceptionally complex.
They were also the students this ti.
They were also very strong!
They had sealed the Land of Chaos, created miracles, and saved the residents of Shangjing.
But this ti is not inside the space, with no power restrictions, no spatial suppression, facing tens of thousands of demon beasts in frenzy, and enemies lurking in the shadows.
How should they choose?
