5000...
Each side needs to eliminate 1250 of these monsters.
For an ordinary territory, one could only toss the white flag in surrender upon seeing the staggering number.
With the monsters still 300 meters away, the leaders gave a short briefing about the monsters, their HP, the stats, and the exclusive skills and the ’Basic Physical Damage Resistance’ stirred the morale a little bit.
And Over 40 Defense Stats!
It’s the monster with the highest defense stat they’ve ever face.
"Leader Long, then are you saying the weapons will be useless this time?" George’s question was overheard by the others and there was a sudden dreadful air circulating the East. They understood Long Haoran’s information as the
[Basic Appraisal Skill Activated]
[Trebuchet ...Special Effect: After every three attacks, the next attack will trigger magic damage causing 140% of the base damage to the units within 4.5 meters...]
[Ballista ...Special Effect: After every three attacks, the next attack will trigger a special candied bomb that deals magic damage causing 110%-130% of the base damage to the units within 3 meters...]
"No. They’re helpful. It’s just basic resistance and not total immunity. Remember the special ammunition after every third attack. It can deal considerable magic damage. For the arrows and catapults, just keep firing when they enter range. We can use the paper the Landowner gave. But be sure not to waste so much. Use it only when you’re certain you’ll hit it." This is the longest command Long Haoran had spoken.
Right! The bomb and the ice cream! And the paper!
Long Haoran’s words brought back the cheerful atmosphere. "Alright, Commander Long!"
If that couldn’t still eliminate all, he will head out himself.
"But what’s a battle cry?" The people didn’t know the skill and its effect.
Wolf beastman George stepped up and explained, "It a skill that reduced the morale of the target and had a certain chance to cause prettification and reduce their stats."
Long Haoran frowned, "Do you know its range and how to counter it?"
George searched in his memory, "An average of 10 meters. Normally, the caster will assume a particular stance and if you can interrupt its casting by attacking it, then the skill be cancelled. The caster had no choice to wait for its cool down."
Long Haoran gazed at the distance left before the monsters entered the range of the weapons. He was not the type to let his guard down even the situation seems good. He was always cautious.
Long Haoran relayed the information to the other leaders and Xiao Hua.
"Thank you Chef Long, Isn’t it just shutting them up? I think I know what to do about it." Li Chunhua already had a planned in her mind.
Seeing her so spirited without the ounce of fear and panic, Long Haoran let out a faint chuckle that only he could hear before closing the chat and observing the battlefield. The copper coins were still there sinking the mud and there were so many pits.
Same with last time because the AGI stats of the pests were over 30, Li Chunhua took over the job of the shaman and summoned the rain.
"...Water Curtain!"
The pitter patter of the rain was the signal and all braced themselves for the new round.
"We got this everyone! Just treat them new sparring punching bags!" Elga encouraged her team.
"Yes!"
Less than 240 meters away...the pests was hit by the drizzle and got the first bath during their Death Zone’s life.
Unlike the ghoul family who were all brawn without brain, these pests with thick exoskeleton possessed the intelligence of a child.
"HUkkk!" The Zerg sprinting stopped after sensing that there was something wrong with the rain.
"Hukk?" They looked at their pals for a moment.
And under the Professional Mole’s and Salted Fishes’ eyes, they dug a pit and jumped inside!
The Salted Fishes who were waiting to strike were speechless: "..." What’s happening?
Li Chunhua: "..." Did they just bury themselves?
Because they lost sight of the faint silhouettes from afar, the others contacted Li Chunhua who had the most advanced sense out of them.
Li Chunhua’s eyes shone with golden light and looked at the ground. Her vision was able to penetrate the several layers of soil.
Two seconds later...
"They’re moving ten feet underground!"
"What?" Siri was astounded. Those Zergs are digging tunnels? These pests always adhered to front to front combat! Since when did they become cowards?
Li Chunhua couldn’t believe what she’s seeing. The sides of the tunnels were so smooth and their efficiency was worth adding to be hire as part-time excavators because in just two minutes they were less than 200 meters away from the territory.
But how will they be able to kill those moles now?
Li Chunhua felt blood clogged on her heart. Hey come out! I dare you!
Because the stats of the monster were upgraded drastically, the third round monster statistics were: [D- 25], [C-40], and [B-65].
But despite the numbers were reduced the Xeno-Humanoids were much harder to deal with because they had intelligence.
In the first round, the global population was reduced by 3%, eliminating weaker territories or those who didn’t prepare beforehand, or were lazy to move around, thinking the system was just bluffing or surmising that the Tide was easy to overcome.
In the second round, more than 50 million territories didn’t manage to defend in the end. They were besieged by the monsters and the crystal was destroyed.
Some wittingly abandoned their territory and letting the survivors escaped to the wilderness. A few of them were killed after unluckily spotted by the monsters loitering around and those who survived received a notification.
[Your territory was besieged. You are now a refugee. Please join a territory soon.]
"My Lady, what are we going to now?" An injured native asked their landowner.
The female wearing white quality equipment looked onto number of people left. From 10, only four survived. She clenched her fists, "Assist those injured. We will find a place and set camp first. At the daybreak, we’ll search for a territory."
Since it was still Monster Tide, they couldn’t do anything.
"Yes, Landowner." The natives responded.
The female remembered the territory she failed to protect. "Don’t call me that anymore. Call me Xiang’er."
With the reminder of the nightmarish memories just minutes ago, the natives were silent while tending their pals. Though death was common occurrence in this world, their eyes still shed tears.
Xiang’er found a tree lean on and covered her eyes with both of her hands, whispering in the hushed tone, "I’m so sorry."
On this night, not only Xiang’er’s group became refugees. Such scenes were happenings all over the the face of the planet.
"Run quickly before they notice us!"
"Let’s hide in the wilderness first! Don’t get left behind."
"Auntie come on, climb on back!"
