Chapter 584 Breaking Through The Fortress Walls
Zhao Yan had misjudged the ground shaking caused by the beast tide. He had a.s.sumed that the entire beast tide was causing the earth to shake, but it was actually just a giant elephant.
This elephant’s body was black and gray, clearly different from the other giant elephants.
Its entire body seemed covered in a layer of black armor, making it look like a rhinoceros.
!!
It had large pieces of hard armor-like scales on its body and looked full of power.
The gray elephant walked out, and the ground trembled with every step.
Every time it raised its foot, it would bring Zhao Yan a great shock and a sense of doom.
Zhao Yan stood on the spot and looked at the giant elephant slowly walking over; he was dumbfounded.
Some other soldiers held their heads with their hands, some kneeled on the ground, and some curled up in a corner. Very few of them were calm and composed.
“Captain, what should we do? How should we fight these beasts?”
“Our weapons, whether it’s our sword or the guns we brought, are all useless. There’s no way we can break its defense!”
“How are we supposed to fight this? We can’t even deal it any damage!”
“We’re finished; we’re doomed! We’re going to die here today! There’s no doubt about that!”
At that moment, Zhao Yan stood rooted to the ground. He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in a cold sweat.
“Don’t panic!” He shouted.
“Our fortress gates are made of pure steel. I don’t believe that it can break it down!”
Hearing Zhao Yan’s words, the army’s morale stabilized, and the number of people shouting in despair decreased.
Suddenly, Lin Shu’s walkie-talkie buzzed.
“Vice-captain, I’ve connected to the fighter’s signal. I’ve already explained the situation to him. He’ll be here soon.”
Amidst their despair, a piece of good news finally arrived. It made Zhao Yan and Lin Shu’s hearts, which had been hanging in limbo, relax.
“That’s great, that’s great…” Lin Shu clutched the walkie-talkie to her chest and sighed in relief.
“Good. As long as he returns, our predicament will be over. It doesn’t matter how many enemies there are. As long as he returns, all of them will go to h.e.l.l!”
Zhao Yan declared viciously.
“The Glory Warriors Special Forces are one of the few special teams in the military. The members in it are all terrifyingly strong and compet.i.tive.”
“Even the most basic fighter rank on their team is nearly impossible to obtain. The fighter rank is followed by warrior, G.o.d of war, and glory G.o.d of war.”
Zhao Yan listened quietly, as he had been fighting in the north all this time; he didn’t know as much as Lin Shu did about military matters.
“Are these positions, or…?”
Lin Shu added, “It’s a division of strength. Fighters are young talents with great potential. They’re all strong, and stronger than one’s common sense. They’re not comparable to the top students of any academy.”
“Alright, let’s wait for him to come. I can’t wait to see how strong this special force is, as I’ve only heard of them before.”
At that moment, Zhao Yan was feeling much more relaxed. Finally, there was a piece of good news, which eased the heavy burden on his body.
“Next, you need to organize our troops and defend this place. If the enemy attacks the fortress, we’ll pour our firepower down. Whether it’s guns, magic, or any other skill, attack them all! Don’t be careless!”
“Roger that!” Lin Shu’s expression hardened. She was full of energy now that she had hope.
However, the gray elephant’s pace quickened at this point and sprinted toward them.
This speed exceeded Zhao Yan’s expectations!
At this distance, if the gray elephant had continued to advance at the same speed as before, they could have dragged on the battle.
But this seemingly c.u.mbersome giant elephant was running wildly at an astonishing speed. It was about to crash into the fortress gates in less than ten seconds!
The violent shaking made Zhao Yan and the others unable to stand steadily, and their bodies swayed left and right.
A creature as large as a hill was charging straight at them with absolutely incredible momentum!
It was as if the entire stronghold were a cruise ship crashing into a huge iceberg. This feeling of impending doom wasn’t doing wonders for Zhao Yan’s mood.
“This is bad… Quickly think of a way! Our gates are about to be broken through!”
Lin Shu started to panic, and her body began to tremble again.
“What should we do? We’re doomed! Everything is going to end; our stronghold and our lives!”
“What kind of monster is this beast? How could this world give birth to such a monster?”
“I’m going to die! I’m really going to die here!”
“Is there any hope of escaping now?”
The surrounding soldiers were all fl.u.s.tered as they fell into despair. Some even dropped their weapons and couldn’t be bothered to attack; they knew they were achieving nothing.
Zhao Yan looked at the huge elephant charging towards him and swallowed dryly.
This giant elephant was about ten meters tall, and its body was burly. Its entire body was covered in muscles and looked like it had no fat.
The fortress gates were also about ten meters long!
“What are you panicking for? These are solid steel doors! Let it hit us. It can’t break through!”
Zhao Yan shouted to his troops unhappily, but he knew he was bluffing.
“It’s about to crash!”
Lin Shu shouted.
The next moment, the gray elephant crashed into the fortress gates in a violent collision.
Boom!!!
The deafening sound of the collision made every soldier cover their ears.
At the same time, there was a violent tremor, like an earthquake. The fortress walls were shaking as if they were about to collapse at any time.
Zhao Yan and the others lowered their bodies to avoid being thrown off their feet.
“What’s the situation? Did the gates manage to block it?”
Zhao Yan shouted at the top of his lungs amidst the shaking stronghold.
“I don’t know,” Lin Shu shouted in reply. “Let’s take a look.”
The two got to their feet and looked down the fortress walls.
Bang!!!
However, before the two could stick their heads out, a loud explosion occurred under their feet!
The huge gray elephant had sunk into the gates.
The thick steel doors were still holding up.
However, the gates sunk in, and just a moment later, the gates were knocked off the fortress walls!
Following the sound of an explosion, everyone could see the huge elephant charging forward with debris on its back.
The explosion had caused the bricks on the fortress walls to explode and fly in all directions.
The gray elephant stopped in its tracks as a steel gate slammed into the ground.
When everyone looked at the fortress gates, they were shocked to see that one side of the fortress gate was gone! There was nothing there, only a few broken bricks and tiles on the verge of collapsing.
Then, everyone saw all kinds of huge beasts, accompanied by medium-sized beasts rushing in. The protection of the fortress walls was no longer effective at this moment.
