Chapter 363: Chapter 273: Aggregated Monster and Borderline Relic (4K) _1
Baijiang No. 2 Senior High School had been immersed in the Eternal World for more than half a day.
The good news was that the newly transported area was protected by the power of the world. The omnipresent white mist that obscured the sky and the lingering red fog did not intrude into the school area. Even the large group of monsters attracted to it were mostly blocked by the displaced space.
The bad news was that the monsters that had invaded the school, though of less numbers and lower level, put tremendous pressure on the people and caused many casualties.
The good news was that, within less than half a day, the Lord players of the nearby region had already found their newly transported school, which was a strong boost of morale for everyone.
However, the bad news was, as mentioned by the Lord, that they were already on the outskirts of the Tai Xuan Alliance’s territory. Affected by the recent Red Fog Disaster Moon, countless monsters were still wandering in the wilderness. Most of these monsters were attracted by the school and crowded in the white fog outside the school.
“Don’t worry, I will endure until the reinforcements arrive!”
At the rooftop of the teaching building, Mr. Tan’s words were serious. Looking at the white fog in the distance, his slender silhouette seemed tragically heroic and magnificent to the people below.
He was just a young man in his twenties and a relatively new Lord who had just let go of his Greenhand status. However, here, he was the strongest.
In addition to Mr. Tan, only Teacher Zhang, who taught the Monster Illustrated Handbook, was an elite-level player.
Elite-level players were originally the strong among the players.
In the first hour of entering the school, Mr. Tan defeated a group of monsters, confident and carefree.
In the second hour, Mr. Tan resisted and gradually eliminated three batches of monsters. His sword-holding hand was slightly trembling, but he composed himself, “Don’t panic, reinforcements will be here soon.”
Just two and a half hours into entering the school, Mr. Tan, with his back to the crowd, swallowed, “Hey, hey, hey, the reinforcements really won’t be late, right? If no reinforcements come, I’m going to succumb!”
He was not as calm and fearless as people thought.
He also knew that even though their position has been confirmed, the strong ones would still need quite some time to get from Xingrong Town to here.
The distance between was at least several hundred kilometers.
As for who’s outside Xingrong? There weren’t many strong ones.
It’s not that he was bragging, but the level of the other Lords around him who had the same tenure was limited. With insufficient power, even if these Lords organized their troops to come here, their help would be minimal.
Perhaps Mr. Tan’s prayers had worked. Before he could hold on any longer, a strong one descended from the sky, as if he were treading on a multicolored auspicious cloud wrapped in a holy glow.
“Instructor Liu!”
The comer was known to Mr. Tan. It was Instructor Liu Jing, a well-known senior player in Baijiang City, who also held important positions as Vice Chairman of the Baijiang Association and Head instructor of Baijiang Special Training Class.
With Instructor Liu’s arrival, there was hope and safety.
“I happened to be near, so I rushed here ahead of time. The other rescue teams will probably take a little longer to arrive.”
Liu Jing, a young man in his thirties with well-trimmed hair, looked very neat. He wore brown armor, riding a chestnut-colored flying dragon and slowly landed on the school’s plaza.
The brown flying dragon opened its mouth and spat out blazing orange flames, instantly reducing the monsters rushing at him to ashes.
Not a single monster could break through this wall of flames.
“Damn, a dragon!”
Instructor Liu then extended his hand, summoning thirty elite soldiers and three generals from within the Lord’s Seal.
The elite soldiers quickly garrisoned various strongholds in the school, while the generals roamed around, clearing the monsters one by one, and quickly restored peace in the campus.
“Instructor Liu is awesome!”
“So are you. At your stage, I didn’t have many Professional Soldiers, let alone elite ones.”
Under the protection of the white fog, Mr. Tan relaxed when he saw the invading monsters being easily slain.
Suddenly,
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The thunderous sound as if a giant was pounding at the gate rang out. The next moment, the white fog was torn apart by the knife-like red mist, and swarms of monsters flooded in through the opening.
A monster of daunting size stood out, it was like an enormous sphere formed by countless monsters being piled together. The giant meatball towered as high as three or four storied building, smelled nasty, and scattered bits of ominous red fog.
The meatball crushed the railings and walls and rolled into the campus. Although it did not advance further, chunks of meat on its body suddenly started to squirm, subsequently, horrifying eyeballs started to open all over the giant meatball body.
Dozens, if not hundreds, of eyeballs all stared in the direction of the teaching building.
“Ah–”
At the window, someone started to scream, blood trickling down from their eyes.
“Don’t Look! Don’t Look! Don’t Look!”
“What is that?”
Mr. Tan was astonished. He had never seen or heard of such a creature.
“It’s an aggregated monster!”
Instructor Liu’s expression stiffened, “But how could it appear in such a place?”
Mr. Tan peered, and indeed, he could discern some traces of Goblins and Jackal Men from the gigantic meatball.
But how could there be such a disgusting and terrifying monster?
Not only was the meatball disgusting to look at, the power it possessed could only be described as horrible. At first encounter, it blew away Instructor Liu’s flying dragon.
The flying dragon let out a cry of agony, fear gleaming in its eyes.
The other generals were trying to lure the monster away, but the situation became very dangerous in just a blink of an eye.
“Instructor Liu, we… we can’t hold it off.”
“Hm.” Liu Jing took out his combat blade, “I have received the message. Strong reinforcements are nearby and they will be here soon. Just hold on a little longer.”
