Chapter 227: The Defensive Battle Ended

Elisa heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”

John ordered, “Leave the Gold-tier Beast Masters who can fight again. Mita City’s Silver-tier Beast Masters, come up.”

A portion of the Gold-tier Beast Masters retreated, and over a thousand Silver-tier Beast Masters climbed up the city walls.

Their pet beasts were completely useless in the battle just now.

[Ding! Congratulations to host for completing the mission! The system reward has begun to be distributed.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet Stormhawk’s Peerless Eagle Eye talent has been upgraded to Mythical-Tier talent, Eagle Eye.]

[Eagle Eye: Vision has been greatly enhanced. Vision can easily penetrate through the clouds. There is a high probability of seeing through all sorts of illusion camouflage and invisibility abilities.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet Berserk Bear’s Rare-Grade Sniff Talent has been upgraded to the Peerless Sniff Talent.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Bloodthirsty Hell Vine, has received a Normal-Grade talent — Luxuriant Roots.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly’s Rare-Grade Five Senses Illusion talent and has been upgraded to the Peerless-Grade Five Senses Illusion talent.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet seven-colored glazed psychedelic butterfly has received a rare-grade five-sense illusion talent and has been upgraded to the peerless-grade five-sense Illusion Talent.]

[Ding! Your Divine Pet Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly’s talent has been upgraded. Its growth potential has increased from Top-Tier Star Glory to Low-Tier King.]

The system mission had been completed, and a series of notifications overwhelmed Lugh.

The Eagle Eye of the Stormhawk had been upgraded to Mythical-tier. Although the Eagle Eye was still an assisting detection talent, Lugh was still very happy.

At least it still had special effects.

Under certain circumstances, seeing through illusions, disguises, and invisibility abilities were really important.

The Berserk Bear’s sense of smell was upgraded to the Peerless level, which improved Lugh’s tracking ability by quite a bit.

As a plant-type pet beast, the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine should have obtained quite a good talent — Luxuriant Roots.

Luxuriant Roots were very beneficial to plant-type beasts, at least they didn’t have to worry about being pulled out of the ground by Fierce Beasts.

The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic Butterfly’s Five Senses Illusion technique had been improved to a Peerless level. This would definitely greatly increase its illusion ability.

When James saw the Black Iron flying-type Fierce Beasts that blotted out the sun, he knew that it would be difficult to stop all the flying-type Fierce Beasts with just the few of them.

“Gold-tier Beast Masters who can still fight with flying-type pet beasts, go to the city and specifically kill the flying-type Fierce Beasts in the air.”

“Alright.”

More than forty Gold-tier Beast Masters left the city walls.

Lugh had the Stormhawk fly to the sky above Mita City.

James’ prediction was right. Many Bronze-tier and Black Iron-tier flying-type Fierce Beasts broke through their defenses and entered Mita City.

However, facing more than forty Gold-tier flying-type beasts, they couldn’t do anything at all.

Wherever the Stormhawk passed, all the Bronze-tier and Black Iron-tier Fierce Beasts fell like a storm.

Meanwhile, the over 1,000 Silver-tier Beast Masters on the city walls had also completely scattered the Silver-tier ground-type Fierce Beasts.

When the sky was about to turn dark, the Bronze-tier and Black Iron-tier ground-type Fierce Beasts that had escaped from Orvis Mountain didn’t even have a thought when they faced the tall and sturdy city walls of Mita City. They directly took a detour.

When the last wave of Fierce Beasts left, many Gold-tier Beast Masters fell to the ground.

In this battle, the ones who fought the hardest were the Gold-tier Beast Masters. The ones with the highest casualty rate were also Gold-tier Beast Masters.

The Black-Gold Armored Spiders and Rock Armor Rhinoceroses that passed by Mita City were too much of a threat.

If it weren’t for the four Platinum-tier Beast Masters and over a hundred Gold-tier Beast Masters from the Emergency Response Team, Mita City would have been broken open today.

“Everyone, you’ve worked hard. Silver-tier Beast Masters will rest in groups. Collect the crystal cores first, and all Gold-tier Beast Masters will rest. The reconnaissance team will investigate the situation around Mita City twenty-four hours a day. Pay attention to your safety.”

Lugh glanced at Elisa, who nodded at him. “Put away your Bloodthirsty Hell Vines and go rest.”

“What about you guys?”

The five Platinum-tier Beast Masters didn’t move.

“We can still hold on. We’ll rest on the city walls,” Elisa said with a smile. “James even moved our tents up here for us.”

James smiled with a pale face. “It’s a very luxurious tent.”

Bill scolded jokingly, “Get lost! One of my Platinum-tier pets died.”

James stretched out three fingers and forced a smile. “Three of mine died.”

His smile was even uglier than crying.

He was definitely at the forefront of this defensive battle.

…

Just as Lugh was about to retrieve the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine, he heard a system notification.

[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Bloodthirsty Hell Vine, has leveled up to High-Tier Gold.]

The Bloodthirsty Hell Vine kept devouring the subsidiary bodies, and its level rose once again.

Speaking of which, the Bloodthirsty Hell Vine’s level could at least rise by another level.

But it was always being robbed of monsters.

When it was cooperating in battle, the Gold-tier Beast Masters around it would start attacking the beasts that were trapped the moment they were tied up.

Many of the beasts weren’t killed by it at all.

“Bruce, what’s wrong?”

When they went down the city wall, Lugh was at the back. Bruce limped in front of him.

“Are you injured?”

Bruce nodded.

“Aren’t you going to the hospital?”

“I’m not going today. I’ll bear with it for now. The hospital is probably very busy today. I have some healing medicine on me. I’ll apply it myself.”

“If you can’t bear it, just let me know.”

“It’s fine.”

At the foot of the city wall, the hole had already been repaired.

Military cars came one after another to pick up Lugh and the others.

“You’ve worked hard.”

“You’ve worked hard.”

“Thank you.”

…

The soldiers of Mita City helped the Beast Masters of the Emergency Response Team onto the cars, driving very quickly along the way.

When they arrived, the cars were a little crowded.

When they returned, many people sat directly on the cars, which were a little empty.

Some people died, while others were hospitalized.

“Do you want one?”

“No, thank you.”

“It’s fine if you don’t smoke, it’s fine if you don’t smoke.”

The Beast Master from the 7th Team turned over and leaned out of the carriage.

“When I saw you push away more than ten Rock Armor Rhinoceroses just now, I felt that you were so handsome.”

Lugh replied solemnly, “I don’t like men.”

“Cough cough…”

That person began to cough violently.

The other people lying in the carriage also started to laugh, but the laughter did not last long.

When the military card stopped, Lugh wanted to get up, but he suddenly found that his limbs were weak, and a strong sense of fatigue overwhelmed him.

It was as if all the bones in his body had been transferred.

Lugh remembered that he had used Power Burst just now.

His power had burst out and he had held on for a long time.

But people always had their limits. No matter how long they could hold on, there would also be a period of weakness.

His body was wet and full of sticky blood. His clothes were not covering his body, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

The carriage door was opened. A member of the emergency team who was still able to move showed off and directly jumped down. However, he lost his balance and fell directly onto the ground. It was extremely uncomfortable,

“Quick, lift him up.”

Lugh saw two strong women jump into the carriage and lift him up.

“What’s wrong? Are you exhausted?”

Lugh nodded. “Yes.”

“Do you want to take a bath?” a woman shouted.

“How do I take a bath?”

“We might be able to help.”

“Uh, I don’t want to take a bath.”

“Then I’ll find a man for you, but those men are rough.”

“A man,” Lugh insisted.

Soon, the two soldiers helped Lugh up.

They carried him into the room and took off the tattered clothes on Lugh.

They put him in a bathtub filled with warm water and helped him wash his body.

“Is it too troublesome?”

A young soldier said, “It’s okay. This is what we should do. Your friends from the Emergency Response Team have worked hard.”

Lugh soaked a bucket of hot water into a blood-red color. After changing three buckets of water, he was served by the two of them to put on his clothes.

They even brought food and fed Lugh.

“We will all stand guard at the door. If you have any requests, just shout.”

“Okay.”

The lights were turned off and the door slowly closed.

Lugh could hear the faint sound of breathing.

Lugh was overcome with fatigue. He couldn’t hold on any longer and fell into a deep sleep.

On the South City Wall of Mita City, the Guardian of Mita City lit a cigarette for the Captain of the 10th Team, Bill.

Sitting on the city wall, James looked at the uneven ground beneath him and said, “Elisa, it’s all thanks to Lugh this time.”

Vice-Captain John added, “If it weren’t for him, we might have lost half of our Gold-tier Beast Masters… If it weren’t for him, the city walls might have collapsed. I don’t know what kind of pet beast that kid has on him, but he managed to overturn more than ten Rock Armor Rhinoceroses.”

“I didn’t expect his Bloodthirsty Hell Vine to be so powerful. I know he’s very strong, but I didn’t expect that kid to still hide a little of his strength.”
