Game: Civilization Paradise

Chapter 231: Chapter 231: Monster Tide

"That may be so, but something still feels off. Especially with this monster tide—we have no idea of its actual scale. The forces from Abyss City and Star Tower City were completely routed after holding out for only a short time. That alone shows how serious this is."

Long Ming analyzed rationally.

Just as Luoxue heard this and was about to say something...

...the inner city’s broadcast system suddenly crackled to life, and a grim voice echoed throughout the area.

"Attention, everyone. I am Qiansha, the Overall Commander of this three-city defense. I am now formally notifying you all that the monster tide is about to reach the three cities. I don’t care what methods or means you use—you must intercept and stop it. Anyone who speaks of failure, advocates for retreat, or deserts in the face of the enemy will be summarily executed on the spot as a deserter! This battle will determine whether our Mountain City Mountain can establish a foothold in this world. No failures will be tolerated! Finally, I wish you all a resounding victory. Glory will forever belong to humanity."

Long Ming listened to Qiansha’s pre-battle declaration, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Ahem, Long Ming, I think it’s best you don’t bring up that subject again,"

Jing Chuan and the others said awkwardly.

Luoxue sighed and said,

"Let’s just be mindful of it ourselves. Prepare for battle!"

"Alright."

Long Ming nodded sensibly.

’To be stupid enough to go talk to Qian Luobing about retreating now would be asking for death.’

--------------------------------------

「On the inner wall of Aimengka City.」

Qiansha stood high on the wall, gazing at the distant horizon.

The sun slowly rose, its light spilling across the land.

"Lord Qiansha, the monster tide is here!"

Captain Alang reported respectfully to Qiansha.

"Right on time. Today, we’ll let these bastards see what we’re made of!"

Qiansha cracked his neck, a feverishly excited expression on his face.

Meanwhile, within the routing forces of Abyss City, Padoka said anxiously to Modick,

"Modick, what do we do now? The monster tide is about to overtake us."

"Into Aimengka City!"

Modick replied to Padoka immediately.

"Yes, sir!"

Padoka responded at once.

Soon, the forces of Abyss City fled into Aimengka City in a sorry state, making for the inner city wall.

Although Aimengka City had a different layout from Osmo City, it was also divided into an inner and outer city, separated by a ten-meter-high wall.

On the high wall of the inner city.

Captain Alang watched the approaching forces of Abyss City and reported to Qiansha,

"Lord Qiansha, Modick and his men are fleeing this way."

"A bunch of useless trash. I expected them to hold out longer, but they only lasted a few hours."

A disdainful look appeared on Qiansha’s face.

"Just as you say, Lord Qiansha."

Captain Alang replied respectfully.

Just then, Modick arrived with his troops before the inner city wall. He shouted up at Qiansha,

"Qiansha, hurry up and open the gate! Let us in!"

"What, you think this is your house? That you can come and go as you please?"

Qiansha shot back with a cold snort.

"What’s that supposed to mean? Hurry up and open the gate so we can fight the monster tide together! If you don’t, you’ll be finished too when it arrives!"

"Finished? We’re nothing like you bunch of losers. You can’t even hold back one monster tide. You should just scurry home to your mommies!"

"Qiansha, how dare you insult us!"

Modick flew into a rage upon hearing Qiansha’s words.

"So what if I insulted you? Point is, I’m not letting you in. Get lost if you know what’s good for you, and don’t interfere with my battle!"

Qiansha couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on Modick and his men.

Hearing this, Padoka and the others looked at Modick, their expressions grim.

"What now? The guy’s dead set on not letting us in. Should we take this opportunity to retreat?"

"You dare retreat? The Abyss Lord’s orders were to take the Royal City Ruins! If we pull back now... well, if Mountain City Mountain fails to stop the tide, it’s one thing. But if they succeed, how are we supposed to attack the Royal City Ruins then?"

Modick demanded of Padoka and the others.

"Then what should we do?"

Padoka and the others were caught between a rock and a hard place.

"Hmph. If he won’t let us in, then so be it. It’s not like we’re out of options. Order all troops to form a defensive line in the outer city area and intercept the monsters with everything we’ve got."

Modick immediately issued the order.

"Yes, sir!"

Padoka and the others’ eyes lit up when they heard this.

They couldn’t get into the inner city, but they could still use the buildings in the outer city as cover to establish a defensive line.

In an instant, the forces of Abyss City withdrew to the area to the left of the inner city’s exterior, where they quickly began constructing a defensive line to brace for the monster tide’s assault.

Seeing this, Alang said to Qiansha,

"Lord Qiansha, those guys haven’t given up. They’re setting up a defensive line right next to us."

"Let them. It won’t be long before they break and run."

Qiansha didn’t give Modick and his men a second thought.

"Understood!"

Captain Alang nodded in acknowledgment.

...

「On the walls of Osmo City.」

Qian Luobing, Luoxue, Long Ming, and the others stood atop the wall, gazing into the distance.

Jiang Huai watched the drone feed and reported,

"Miss, the monster tide is rapidly approaching. Estimated time of arrival is one hour."

"All personnel, prepare for battle."

Qian Luobing ordered coolly.

"Yes, ma’am!"

Jiang Huai and the others replied in unison.

The seconds ticked by. The distant horizon gradually turned red as countless Blood Breath Beasts surged across the ground like a crimson tide—a truly spectacular sight.

Everyone on site was stunned, their hearts in their throats. But no one made a rash move; they all waited for Qian Luobing to give the order to engage.

Streamer Nansi aimed her camera at the distance and reported nervously,

"Everyone, I’m currently on the inner city wall of Osmo City. The monster tide has appeared on the horizon and is rapidly approaching. As you can see, the number of monsters is absolutely immense..."

"Go, crush them!"

"Mountain City Mountain is the strongest!"

...

Countless words of encouragement filled the livestream’s screen.

Suddenly, a huge roar echoed from the sky.

Long Ming and the others all looked up.

One bomber after another, escorted by fighter jets, swooped toward the monster tide up ahead.

"Excellent! It’s our invincible air force!"

Jing Chuan and the others’ faces lit up. They weren’t confident about facing the monster tide on their own, but with continuous aerial support and bombing runs, it was a different story.

Inside the cockpit of Bomber 01.

A man wearing an oxygen mask gazed at the distant monster tide, his expression solemn.

Just then, the chatter of his squad mates came through the communication channel.

"Well, well, looks like this trip wasn’t for nothing. That’s a lot of monsters!"

"The more there are, the more fun they are to bomb!"

"We can head back as soon as the bombing run is over. This mission’s a piece of cake."

...

At that moment, the man spoke in a deep voice.

"This is Captain Xu Can. The monster tide is up ahead. All units, prepare for engagement!"

"Roger!"
