Chapter 205: Sacrifice and Reward
The people who thought that Mcgee was their savior a day ago immediately pushed him off the altar when they found out that forming an Alliance would only increase the danger.
Humans were also a kind of realistic creature.
After the vote, 27 people in the original 107-person team chose to leave.
“Your wooden houses will stay in the castle. You can come back to see them when you have time.” Mcgee did not do it to the extreme.
It was not to the extent that others did not trust him, so he forced them to die.
The Beast Masters without a home just waited to die.
“The rest are those who are willing to work with me, right?” Mcgee glanced at everyone present.
They had already been given a chance to choose, but they did not choose to leave.
“I’ll emphasize once more. There are no two-faced people.”
“Either you leave, or you become a loyal member of the Alliance.”
Mcgee’s tone started to become serious. He was imitating the style of the Wolf King and the Great Elder.
After having the strength, Mcgee also became more confident.
Those who had chosen to give up their home just now left under everyone’s disdainful gazes.
The bald man said, “You have no taste. Even if you survive this time, what will happen in the future?”
Shorty also added. “That’s right. If you don’t live with dignity, you might as well just die here.”
They spoke one after another like crosstalk, making those who left feel ashamed.
After those people left, the Wolf King also appeared. Its colossal body was at least five meters long, and it was a giant Wolf.
It jumped onto a rock outside its home and howled at the sky.
The other Wolves seemed to have received a call and also began to howl along with the Wolf. Their miserable cries made everyone in the home feel fear.
“Don’t be afraid, everyone. This time, they’re familiars that can’t fly or attack from a distance.”
“Right, as long as we stand on the city wall and attack from a distance, we can easily defend it.”
As if to prove that what they were doing was right, the survivors expressed their confidence one after another.
Was It that easy?
Mcgee looked at the Wolf Pack that was still howling from a distance.
Fortunately, he had upgraded his home to level four and formed an Alliance. With the protection of the city wall, he had reduced a lot of danger.
However, according to the rules of the survival world…
Would they be allowed to pa.s.s through so safely?
The howling of the Wolf Pack finally stopped.
In the darkness, the eyes of the Shadow Wolves revealed a red light. They were densely packed and looked particularly terrifying.
Their attack began.
The body of the Shadow Wolves began to become one with the darkness of the night. If it were not for the fact that there were too many of them, it would be hard to imagine that it was a pack of Wolves that was rus.h.i.+ng toward the castle.
The arrow towers and frost towers did not discover the presence of the Wolf Pack, so their attack did not unfold.
“Why aren’t they attacking?” People initially thought that they could easily survive this attack by relying on the powerful firepower of the defensive fortifications. Still, they clearly thought too lightly, as dog-type familiars, the moat did not pose a threat to them.
It was just that they could not directly leave paw prints on the city wall with their claws.
However, after all, they could not withstand a large number of Wolves. They surrounded their homes, using their claws and bodies to continuously charge at the city wall.
[City wall HP reduced by 5%.]
The members of the Alliance received the system notification almost at the same time. Only then did they react and begin to attack the Wolves below the wall.
Flames, storms, and ice blocks all flew toward the Wolf Pack below the city wall.
The city wall was more than 20 meters tall. Some of the Shadow Wolves with strong bodies even tried to jump directly onto the city wall. The highest they could jump to was about 15 meters.
The Snow Spirit Fox sat beside Mcgee and looked at the survivors lazily. She asked, “Aren’t you going to make a move?”
“Sometimes, we have to ask them to do something for the Alliance.”
Although the words just now did not shake Mcgee’s heart, he also realized that he could not just give everything.
In this kind of world, there was no need to give something without getting something in return.
The reason why Mcgee would protect the Alliance was that he hoped that the people of the Alliance could face the Blood Moon attack together and reduce the danger.
After that, everyone would focus on developing the agriculture and industry of the Alliance, so that the survivors could effectively survive in this world that was controlled by the system.
However, the words of the selfish survivors reminded Mcgee.
Everyone had their own selfish motives. In their eyes, Mcgee’s previous efforts to protect the Alliance were a little too easy.
It would make the survivors doubt whether Mcgee could have easily survived the Blood Moon attack and formed the Alliance just to make it more difficult for them to survive.
“Where’s boss Mcgee?”
Some of the survivors finally realized that Mcgee was playing the game. In the first two waves of attacks, Mcgee had been too conspicuous, so they had no chance to show their strength.
However, now that the castle’s defenses could not be used, Mcgee had not made a move either.
Their familiars had already killed hundreds of Shadow Wolves, but their familiars were weak and lacked aoe skills.
After a few rounds of attacks, the survivors’ familiars were already exhausted, and the skills they released were much weaker.
Only then did they realize how powerful Mcgee’s familiars and himself were.
“Is boss Mcgee mad at us?”
“It’s possible. Just now, there were people who wanted to leave the alliance.”
“Previously, the boss was fighting with such a powerful familiar, and they still did not know how lucky they were. I’m so mad!”
Only now did they know that without Mcgee, there would be no suspense in their fight.
Just the 2,000 Shadow Wolves at the bottom of the city wall would definitely be able to tear the over 100 beastmasters inside the city wall into pieces with ease. They would not even have the chance to resist.
Of course, there were also ways to survive the Blood Moon’s attack without destroying all the subdued beasts.
It was to defeat the Shadow Wolf King, who was supervising the battle two kilometers away. Beside it was three elite Shadow Wolves of the same size and wearing armor.
The bravest survivors all turned to look at Mcgee for help.
He gathered his courage and said, “Boss, I know we were wrong. Can you help us?”
Mcgee smiled and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to help you. I’m thinking about how to approach the Wolf King.”
If he really wanted to persist with twelve waves of attacks, even Mcgee, who was an Iron Man, would not be able to do it.
Therefore, he had to capture the Wolf King alive this time!
Using the Snow Spirit Fox’s freezing skill was undoubtedly the best choice. If it was a one-on-one fight, he was absolutely confident that he could take down the Wolf King.
However, there were three elite monsters guarding the Wolf King’s side. One could imagine how difficult it would be to execute a one-on-four decapitation operation.
[Damage level of the city wall: 70%.]
The system notification came again. When the city wall damage reached 50%, it would collapse.
It was time for Mcgee to make his choice.
“Gale Bird, can you send us to the Wolf King? It’s about a kilometer away.”
