Chapter 306  : Chapter 306  : Ice City Beast Tide

The Mutated Beast, Wan Ren Di, had been rampant in the northeastern Hua Xia and West Siberia Sand Russia for many years. It was a giant tiger that was more than 10 meters long and over 4 meters tall.

When Lin Zhen was reborn, this tiger had already become a Quasi-SS Class.

Generally speaking, for terrestrial mutated beasts on Earth, advancing to the Quasi-SS Class is the apex. Once an SS-level Mutated Beast appears, it is almost certain that a monster attack will occur.

Not to mention how strong the combat capabilities of an SS-level Mutated

Beast itself are, but more importantly, it can command hundreds of

Quasi-SS-level Mutated Beasts, which in turn can command countless S-level Mutated Beasts. S-levels command A-levels, and so on in a cycle, causing the mutated beasts within a thousand miles to rise and form an endless beast tide, overwhelming the Ice City.

By the time the Ice City side noticed that something was wrong, the entire city had been surrounded by mutated beasts, leaving no escape.

Standing on the city wall of Ice City and looking outward, the sky was covered by mutated beasts as far as the eye could see.

On the ground, ferocious mutant tigers, agile mutant leopards, giant mutant human bears, thick-skinned wild boars, wildcats, deer, etc., filled the ranks of the mutated beast army.

Each collision with the massive wild buffalo that was several meters tall seemed to shake the city walls.

Huge pangolins even began to attempt to dig tunnels into the Ice City from underground.

In the sky, countless sparrows, swallows, pigeons, crows, magpies, gray falcons, etc., were like formations of fighter jets, attacking the city walls of Ice City continuously.

The discussion between Lin Zhen and the Gods Clan was put on hold, and the attention of the whole world was focused on this large-scale mutated beast attack.

The Ice City army quickly mobilized, and countless modern war weapons began to exert their power.

Machine guns, missiles, land mines, rocket launchers, and even laser weapons were put to use, and the Ice City Defense Army, numbering up to 5 million, launched a counterattack against the beast tide.

The first wave of mutated beasts to take the field were cannon fodder, mainly small mutants such as mutant chickens, mutant rabbits, and mutant rats. These creatures were not strong and were shattered by various modern weapons.

On the first day, the Ice City Defense Army achieved brilliant results, killing more than a billion mutated beasts!

The casualties of the defense army itself were not significant, which led the people of Ice City to breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps the mutated beast attack was not as terrifying as they thought.

However, from the second day, the situation changed suddenly.

Mutated birds hovering in the sky suddenly attacked, catching the defense army off guard. Several rising fighter jets were shot down by mutated birds, and the mutated beasts began to concentrate their forces for breakthroughs, causing the southern wall of the Ice City to be temporarily occupied by the mutated beasts.

At this time, the value of martial artists was revealed.

The martial artists from the Gale, Changfeng, Dragon Slayer, Blue Sky, Shadow Dance Martial Arts Academy and other major martial academies took to the battlefield.

These martial artists, together with the soldiers, resolutely counterattacked the monsters that had climbed onto the city wall.

The martial artists had a clear division of labor. High-level experts of the Quasi-Star Realm Level would actively seek out high-level mutated beasts such as S-levels.

War God Levels, on the other hand, were responsible for dealing with A-levels.

When Quasi-SS-Class Mutated Beasts appeared, a group of experts would rush forward to attack, determined not to let the high-level mutated beasts invade the city.

The bloody tug-of-war continued for three hours, and with the support of various weapons and the concerted efforts of the martial artists, this wave of monster attacks was repelled.

However, this battle was also a heavy loss for the Ice City side.

As a member of the World War God Alliance ranked first, Hua Xia immediately dispatched troops to Ice City for support and notified other countries around the world, dispatching War God Powerhouses from all over the world to Ice City for support.

However, the support effect was not satisfactory. In addition to the large scale of the beast tide this time, there was another major reason: many rulers of countries outside of Hua Xia were believers in the Gods Clan.

Keep in mind that this time, they were supporting Lin Zhen’s hometown, Ice City Base City, which was now at odds with the Gods Clan and had even kidnapped Lin Zhen’s parents.

As members of the Gods Clan, they naturally considered the interests of the Gods Clan. So when the War God Alliance dispatched War Gods to Hua Xia, many countries interfered.

They first procrastinated by various means, delaying the departure date of the War Gods.

When they couldn’t procrastinate anymore, some War Gods claimed to be injured and sick, continuing to delay.

When they finally reluctantly dispatched some War Gods, they were mostly Primary and Intermediate War Gods.

How useful could a Primary War God be on the battlefield?

Just like Bai Feng, who failed to compress the air in his Dantian during the Yi Lan incident, even a War God Level middle-stage without that ability was chased and fleeed by an A-level Mutant Rat giant palm bear. In a battlefield full of mutated beasts, primary War God Level could play a limited role.

The most reliable support came from domestic assistance in Hua Xia, where various base cities sent their people to Ice City to fight against the monsters.

From the northwest, Feng Ni, Li Changying, and others led thousands of martial artists from the Northwestern Army.

From the Demon Capital, people such as Tang Wenbo and Jiang Huai also brought thousands of people.

And those who had been in the God Generals Training Camp, like Zhao Xiaoman, who had become War Gods, came to Ice City from all over the country and various ancient god ruins.

Many of them came for Lin Zhen’s sake. Lin Zhen’s parents’ incident happened suddenly, and they couldn’t make it in time for the rescue. But this time, Lin Zhen’s hometown was in trouble, and he himself was trapped in the Ancient God City, so they couldn’t just let Lin Zhen’s hometown fall.

In the fierce battle, hundreds of millions of mutated beasts died under the towering walls of the Ice City every day, and many martial artists’ blood stained their uniforms and lives were lost on the battlefield.

According to statistics, more than five million people died in battle in the first five days alone!

Almost every day, close to a million lives were lost in the monsters’ siege.

However, the people of Hua Xia were still very united during this time, and over the years, the defensive facilities of Ice City had become extremely refined, so although the mutated beasts’ siege was fierce, it was not enough to completely defeat Ice City.

But the number of mutated beasts did not seem to decrease much. The siege continued for several days, and more and more mutated beasts arrived to reinforce their ranks, making it impossible to kill them all beneath the city walls.

Based on people’s past experiences, this battle could last for several months, as it was a contest of resources, manpower, and stamina.

Unless there was a group of extremely powerful experts who could break through the beast tide, find the Ten Thousand Enemies, and kill them, it would be impossible to end the mutated beasts’ siege in a short period of time.

Satellite data also showed the location of the Ten Thousand Enemies, which was about a hundred miles deep in the beast tide. It was an impossible mission to get there and kill an SS-level mutated beast protected by many high-level mutated beasts, so people prepared for a protracted battle.

However, on the seventh day, the situation suddenly changed.

In addition to the four city gates, Ice City also had two water gates in the north and south, and the Songhua River flowed through the city. The water gates were sealed by huge iron gates, which usually barred any slightly larger mutated beasts in the water from passing through.

But this time was different. A type of monster fish with incredibly sharp teeth appeared and forcibly bit through the iron gates that blocked the river, allowing countless water monsters to swarm into the city.

Numerous monster fish climbed ashore using their fins as feet, along with giant crabs, wriggling water snakes, and even yacht-sized crocodiles and countless mutated shrimp.

The appearance of these water monsters nearly brought Ice City to its knees. Some people who lived on both sides of the river were completely devoured by the monsters.

Fortunately, the banks of the river in Ice City were different from other places. Here, there were two inner walls, which Lin Zhen had privately spent six hundred billion to construct, and which were nearly completed by this time. These two city walls’ gates were breached at one point, but after that, the martial artists rrom all over tne country rougnt nerce1Y ana maae nuge sacrifices to force the first wave of water monsters back into the water, finally closing the newly established gates.

As the water monsters were unable to enter the city, they could only swim along the river banks and could not climb up the city walls, reducing the danger significantly.

Then, it was time for modern warfare weapons to play their part. Countless weapons, purchased by Lin Zhen, were mounted on the city walls and began to fire at the mutated water monsters in the river.

The intense bombardment lasted for three days and nights. The Songhua River turned red with the blood of countless mutated water monsters, whose bodies piled up like small hills and were then washed downstream by the river.

It wasn’t until three days later that the waterways were basically cleared, and the number of water monsters coming from upstream diminished.

It was only then that Ice City entered a relatively safe period, at least there was no immediate danger of the city being broken.

However, the international support was still lackluster, with War Gods arriving one after another, but it was apparent that they weren’t fully committed, leaving Ice City to maintain a delicate balance with the mutated beasts.

The martial artists couldn’t break through and kill the Ten Thousand Enemies, while the mutated beasts didn’t have the power to break Ice City in a short time.

Perhaps both sides were exhausted, so half a month after the siege began, the mutated beasts ceased their attack. They began to devour the bodies of their own kind, gradually strengthening themselves, while more and more of them continued to arrive.

The people of Ice City got this rare chance to catch their breath, starting to reinforce their defenses and airlifting ammunition into the city via flying saucers from other base cities.

It wasn’t easy for other fighter jets to enter Ice City when the skies were filled with mutated birds, which also served as an excuse for other countries not to send troops promptly.

In any case, the situation had temporarily calmed down, but the people of Ice City knew well that the mutated beasts were still gathering strength, and that the next attack would definitely be even more violent and fierce. Defending Ice City was no easy feat.

It wasn’t until this point that An Ning, the young miss of the An Group who had been on the frontline fighting the mutated beasts, spoke up.

“Do you know why Ice City has been preserved? Why have the hundreds of millions of people in Ice City not become the bellyful of mutated beasts? If Lin Zhen hadn’t spent six hundred billion alone to build two walls along the river for Ice City, we would all be dead by now!”

“For those who were talking big on the internet before, insulting Lin Zhen and praising the Gods Clan, I want to ask you now, where is your god? Why won’t he come and save his devout believers?”

“If you look down on Lin Zhen, don’t live inside the walls he built! If you are capable, get out of Ice City! Leave these life-saving walls and go find the protection of your true god!”
