King of Titans and Dragons
Chapter 338 - 338 333 Beast Tide

Chapter 338: Chapter 333 Beast Tide Chapter 338: Chapter 333 Beast Tide However, the city’s turmoil subsided quickly because right before the rain of fire blocked the sky from their view, a radiant light curtain formed, blocking this sudden attack. The city’s defensive array had been activated.

Seeing its attack being blocked, the seven-colored feathered beast became even more enraged. With a flap of its wings, a massive hurricane began to form and swept towards the city below.

Crack! Countless windblades hit the spiritual light shield, causing it to ripple like the surface of water. The sight terrified the people below. But the shield did not shatter. It stood extremely firm.

“Squawk!” Seeing its attack still unable to breach the city’s defenses, the fierce bird became even angrier, crying out repeatedly.

Just when the humans of the city thought that the fierce bird was out of ideas against their defensive shield, another loud, even more resounding cry was heard. Following this cry, the ground began to tremble slightly.

A beast tide composed of various monsters appeared before/ in front of the city’s soldiers…. two soul intent level fierce birds have driven nearly ten thousand beasts and monsters to attack the city.

Ding! Ding! Ding…. The urgent alarm bell rang throughout the city. Hearing the bell, all the ordinary humans in the city began to run home; they took their parents, spouses, children, and other relatives hiding them in their home basements, or running towards the temple.

As the city’s commoners began to evacuate, one by one, cavalry holding flags appeared in every street and alley, loudly reading the orders just issued by their lord.

“By the Lord’s order, comply with the ‘Human Race Covenant’. All Silver-level and above humans can proceed to the city wall, follow the arrangements, obey the orders, and guard the city.”

“By the Lord…”

… The lord’s draft order echoed throughout the city. Nearly everyone heard it. In what should have been a noisy and lively tavern, silence has now fallen. Only heavy breathing could be heard.

“Damn, unconditional enlistment, and unconditional obedience.” A burly man casually cursed upon hearing the outside draft order, “Whoever responds to the draft is a fool.”

“This is the ‘Human Race Covenant’. All humans must obey unconditionally.” A man with a bearded face lifted his mug of beer, that looked almost like a barrel, draining it in one gulp, then picked up his battle axe and threw it over his shoulder, walking towards the door.

“What if we don’t obey?”

“There are no consequences, no one will come to punish you.”

“Heh, even if there are punishments, there are so many people in the city, what can they do if I don’t obey? Can they catch me?”

“No ruler would use the ‘Human Race Covenant’ to draft the strong fighters in his territory to fight, not until the most dangerous time. Only when in the worst crisis, can this Covenant be used.”

“What’s the worst crisis?”

“The city being destroyed.”

“What?” Many adventurers who were prepared to hide, were suddenly taken aback.

“In the lord’s judgment, the city is likely to be broken through by the monsters. That’s why he’s drafting us to guard the wall.”

“Damn it, we’ll get killed while defending the city, and we’ll still die if the city is breached. So why the hell should I hide? Might as well act as a hero.”

After understanding what the lord’s use of the ‘Human Race Covenant’ to draft strong fighters means, the adventurers in the tavern, who were all at the silver level or above, began to exit one by one, rushing towards the city wall.

….

“Muria, why did you agree to that old Super-level dragon not to teleport there? I’m so tired from flying there.”

“Nevermind, It’s not me that’s flying, I’m not tired.” Muria glanced at Auston who was carrying her and flying at high speed; she replied with a wicked smile.

Hearing Muria’s answer, which was frustrating enough to cause internal bleeding, Auston’s mood dropped. The frequency of its wing flaps began to slow down, and its flying speed gradually decreased.

“Auston, if your speed continues to be as slow as it is now, there’ll be no elemental crystals for you today.” Seeing Auston start to slack off, Muria warned with an indifferent tone.

“Muria, don’t be like this. I’m going to speed up right away.” Hearing Muria threatening to withhold its pay, Auston immediately sped up, while feeling a sense of depression in its heart.

The gap between dragons can sometimes be so large that it leads to despair. Its sister, Renata, didn’t need to do anything. She could just receive three soul intent level Elemental Hearts for free.

On the other hand, if it wanted to obtain ten units of elemental crystals from Muria, it had to carry her and fly for an entire day. The treatment between the two dragons was vastly different.

“Eh, Muria, there are two pretty big birds down there initiating a beast tide to attack the human city.”

“Huh?” Drowsy almost on the verge of falling asleep, Muria heard Auston’s words and instantly became a little more alert. She moved her gaze downwards and saw the two brightly feathered fierce birds that Auston was referring to.

“Let’s go, fly down and see what’s going on.” Muria stomped her foot. She was quite bored after flying in the cloud layer for so long, so she decided to find something to do to alleviate her boredom.

Roar! Auston gave an excited roar, carrying Muria and diving towards the human city below, which was filled with loud cries of battle.

…

“Kill!” On top of the city walls, a bulky middle-aged man, covered in blood, held his battle axe and rushed towards a Moonshadow Leopard. It had climbed up the wall and was killing ordinary soldiers recklessly.

Under the assault of two soul intent level beasts and nearly ten thousand monsters that formed a beast tide, the human side simply couldn’t withstand such pressure, their defense consumption was too great.

So, out of helplessness, the humans adjusted the minimum limit of the defensive array, blocking gold-level and above beasts and monsters outside the spiritual light shield, while the most numerous bronze and silver-level monsters were all let through. They were all allowed to rush on the city walls and fight with the city’s defenders and the adventurers in the city.

“Ah!” “Save me!” “Mom, I don’t want to die!”… At first, the humans, who had the advantage of city walls and defensive weapons, had the absolute advantage against the monsters who had rushed up the city walls, as all the powerful monsters had been blocked outside the defense shield.

But as a large number of low-level monsters were slaughtered, their bodies piled up under the city wall, forming a slope that could be used for a charge, and the walls of the humans had suddenly lost its effectiveness. They were forced to fight against the monsters stepping onto the wall over the piles of bodies.

“Beast, get out!” The robust adventurer’s axe landed on the Moonshadow Leopard which was slaughtering the ordinary soldiers. The seemingly sharp and heavy axe only left a cut on its body and failed to gut it.

If the weapon level is not enough, it couldn’t even break the defense of the monster’s body. And, the armors of ordinary soldiers, made from common iron and steel, were no different from butter cheese in the face of the sharp claws of the Moonshadow Leopard.
