Just then, an alarm suddenly blared.
"What's happening?"
Everyone's faces changed color as they looked into the distance.
But they saw nothing unusual.
"What's the situation?" Dongfang Mingjing inquired.
A person rushed over.
"The scouts just sent a warning of an enemy attack! We've already lost contact with them!"
Dongfang Mingjing's expression turned grave.
He waved his hand, and military orders were imdiately issued.
A million soldiers took their positions on the city wall, while supplies were transported from the Logistics Departnt to the front lines, ready to be consud at any mont.
Dongfang Mingjing glanced at the other segnts of Wall No. 77, all of which were also prepared.
Only then did Dongfang Mingjing look beyond the wall.
The distance was still empty.
But reports from the scouts kept coming in, indicating that a large wave of Scavengers was rapidly approaching.
Ji Qing frowned and said, "Wasn't there just a siege not long ago? Why are they here again!"
At that mont, Dongfang Mingjing saw a ssage in the all-command communication group and exclaid, "A full-scale siege!"
Zhan Tian looked over.
Dongfang Mingjing cald down and said in a deep voice, "I just received news. This ti, it's not just our section of the wall under invasion. All the city walls, to varying degrees, are being attacked. We don't know which section will be the main target yet, but it's foreseeable that reinforcents won't be possible. We'll have to hold out on our own!"
Ji Qing prayed, "I hope it's not our section!"
The atmosphere was incredibly tense.
They hadn't expected such a decisive battle to erupt so suddenly.
At this mont, inside Qingfeng City, a city-wide alarm also sounded!
A notification spread throughout the city:
[The Scavengers are launching a massive offensive, the largest in a million kalpas. Qingfeng City faces an unprecedented crisis. All residents are ordered to ascend the city walls to fight for the defense line! Fight for The Alliance!]
Everyone's faces changed as they inquired about the details.
Many had already prepared and were now beneath the city walls, climbing up.
Few Chaos Dominators chose to hide. Almost everyone understood the principle that when the nest overturns, no egg remains intact. So, many ascended the walls to fight the Scavengers together.
Behind Wall No. 77, a large number of Chaos Dominators also ca up.
Dongfang Mingjing imdiately sent people to coordinate. The number of soldiers under his command quickly reached ten million.
But Dongfang Mingjing knew that these additional nine million soldiers were a mixed bag. Most didn't even have a single qualified piece of armor. However, at a ti like this, even a little extra strength increased the chances of victory. He couldn't afford to ask for more.
"Open the Logistics Departnt's inventory and bring out the backup equipnt!" Dongfang Mingjing ordered.
The logistics soldiers opened the stores and retrieved a total of 1.5 million pieces of equipnt.
But this quantity was still a drop in the bucket. They could only distribute it as best they could to the temporary soldiers who were higher in rank but lacked gear.
By now, only half a shichen had passed since the alarm sounded on the wall.
Finally, a change appeared in the distant Nothingness.
A long, narrow black line "slowly" approached from afar.
The line grew thicker and longer, causing Dongfang Mingjing's brow to furrow deeply.
Zhan Tian exhaled, gripped his war blade tightly, and his eyes also showed solemnity.
Just ten breaths later.
The crowd could see clearly.
It was a massive tide of Scavengers, arranged in ten rows and a thousand columns.
Everyone's faces were grim. That first row alone was ten thousand, and if there were ten thousand rows, that would be a hundred million. The number was already staggering.
However, as the Scavenger army drew closer.
Their formation suddenly changed. From ten rows and a thousand columns, it instantly shifted to a hundred rows and ten thousand columns, and the depth didn't decrease; it actually increased.
The sheer scale of the numbers made everyone's scalps tingle.
"A trillion-strong army!" exclaid a Chaos Dominator with special detection abilities.
Ji Qing shuddered in fear.
Great. His prayer had backfired spectacularly. This was a main offensive force, a trillion strong. How were they supposed to stop them?
Even more shocking was that in the middle of the Scavenger army, many clearly more powerful Nothingness Dominators (Nothingness Dominators referring to Scavengers above the sixtieth order) appeared!
The number of Nothingness Dominators exceeded ten thousand. To think that on Wall No. 77, there were only ten Chaos Dominators of the sixtieth order!
Ten against ten thousand? The disadvantage was imnse!
"Headquarters, headquarters! Requesting reinforcents! Requesting reinforcents!"
Dongfang Mingjing imdiately contacted his superiors, calling for backup.
But the ssage that ca back was no surprise. Other locations were also under heavy assault. Even if they didn't face a trillion, they had hundreds of billions. There was simply no manpower to spare.
Yet, behind the wall, a large number of fresh troops were still arriving. The citizens of Qingfeng City were stepping onto the wall one after another, becoming temporary garrison soldiers.
The number of soldiers on Wall No. 77 grew from the initial ten million, to a hundred million, and now to a billion. The numbers were massively replenished.
But the quality was deeply concerning.
Dongfang Mingjing even saw a thirty-fifth-order Chaos Dominator ascend the wall wearing a set of twenty-ninth-order Dominator Artifacts. That equipnt was about as effective as paper.
But there was truly no other way now.
Dominator Artifacts were seriously lacking, and military supplies were also insufficient—things like recovery pills, healing treasures, joint attack arrays, and a whole host of other items were simply not available.
"We have to give it our all. I hope our allies on other fronts can deal with their enemies quickly and co to our rescue. Otherwise, this place will beco a gap that the Scavenger army will continuously tear open!"
Dongfang Mingjing's expression was heavy.
anwhile, at the rear of the Scavenger army, a seventy-first-order Nothingness Dominator, General Blackwood, looked coldly at the section of the wall ahead.
He was waiting. Once the wall was breached, he would charge straight into the city and detonate himself. The terrifying self-destruction attack would be enough to instantly wipe out trillions of Chaos Dominators and destroy all of Qingfeng City's defenses.
This was a carefully planned sche. As the one designated to self-destruct, he had even specially cultivated a self-destruction technique, amplifying the effect of his explosion a thousandfold!
"If I accomplish such a great feat, even if I fall, I can be resurrected!" Blackwood's face showed an expression of anticipation.
A trillion Scavengers were enough to completely crush this section of the wall. Victory was within sight.
Even the Speaker-level existences were currently tied up. Ten Nothingness Dominators had already appeared in various cities, leaving the Speaker-levels with no spare hands.
The situation was about to deteriorate to an utterly terrifying degree, with no middle ground. War was just that sudden and explosive.
