Li Gang looked at the figure singing loudly amidst the smoke and flames, feeling his heart twitch.

He had seen S-rank support professionals before.

But those people, compared to the blue-haired girl in front of him, were like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon; they were not on the same level at all.

SS-rank.

This speculation was absolutely reasonable.

Li Gang's mind raced, and one incredible thought after another emerged.

He recalled Zhuge Kongming, who, by himself, had carved a Level 6 city defense Formation under the city.

One hour.

To elevate a defensive Formation covering thousands of meters of city wall from Level 4 to Level 6.

Is this something an S-rank Formation Master could do?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

That gentleman named Zhuge Kongming, I'm afraid... he is also an SS-rank!

Thinking of this, Li Gang subconsciously gasped.

His heart uncontrollably pounded.

What exactly is going on with this Eternal Night Guild?

Without a sound, a Guild hides three SS-rank monsters?

What kind of magic does this small Donghai City possess?

Why can it gather so many top Geniuses?

And each one is more low-key, more mysterious than the last.

If it weren't for this sudden beast tide, he might never have discovered this astonishing secret.

Li Gang's thoughts drifted.

He also remembered Gandalf, who had made a splash in the National Examination.

That guy, it seems he also came from Donghai City?

Good heavens!

Li Gang's heart skipped a beat.

Counting Gandalf, that's a total of four SS-ranks!

From this perspective, this Donghai City is not some fourth or fifth-tier small city at all.

This is practically a treasure land for the birth of SS-rank powerhouses, a cradle of Geniuses!

The more Li Gang thought about it, the more he felt something was off.

A remote coastal town, why are SS-ranks appearing in clusters?

If this were to be said, others would surely think he was crazy and boasting.

He secretly made up his mind.

If Donghai City could truly hold out this time, he would definitely investigate what secrets Donghai City held in the future.

As Sona's song echoed across the battlefield, the morale of all professionals was elevated to its peak.

They seemed tireless, painless, with a burning Battle Intent in their eyes.

Everyone even ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ had an absurd thought in their hearts.

A million beast tide, it seems... is nothing more than this.

The most crucial thing was that the blue-haired girl seemed to possess infinite energy.

She finished one song, then immediately followed with another, the style impassioned and full of power.

She drank bottles of mana potions like water, without even blinking, coolly guzzling them down.

Although the current situation had temporarily stabilized, Li Gang's worries did not diminish.

He knew very well that Donghai City's main force was almost entirely concentrated at the East City Gate.

While the other three city gates were also guarded by thousands of professionals, most of them were only low-level professionals of Level 10 or 20.

Their strength was ultimately limited.

Once the beast army failed to break through after a long assault and changed direction, the other city gates could easily become Breakthrough points.

But given the current situation, he simply couldn't spare any additional troops for support.

He could only leave it to fate.

To hold on for a little longer, hoping that the Jiangning City military would discover the anomaly sooner and send troops.

Li Gang did not know.

Zhou Huai had already thought of his concerns.

But he never relied on outside help.

It's better to help oneself than to ask others.

Just as everyone at the East City Gate was fighting fiercely and valiantly.

No one noticed.

Demon Dragon Xiao Hei, and Da Yi, who was holding a longbow, had already quietly withdrawn from this main battlefield.

Zhou Huai's instructions to them were simple.

Relying on Demon Dragon Xiao Hei's super high mobility and Da Yi's terrifying ultra-long-range attack capability, they were to provide mobile support to the other three city walls.

Everything they did was to buy more time for Zhuge Kongming.

At this moment, the white-robed Formation Master was rapidly moving through the city.

Since he could no longer carve Formations from the outer city, he would carve them within the city.

He wanted to turn the entire Donghai City into a layered, impregnable fortress of war.

Should the city walls fall, they could still rely on the defensive Formations within the city to block layer by layer and resist section by section!

At the same time.

Donghai City, Forging Guild headquarters.

Zhou Huai's consciousness quietly shifted to Ouyezi.

At this moment, Ouyezi was still in that top-tier forging room.

Zhou Huai controlled him as he slowly pushed open the heavy metal door.

Outside the door, it was no longer as quiet and peaceful as when he entered.

The entire Forging Guild was in chaos.

Countless forging apprentices and staff members hurried about, their faces filled with panic and fear.

They were busy packing up the dazzling array of equipment on the shelves.

"Quick! Faster!"

An anxious shout came from the center of the hall.

Supervisor Shen of the design department was red-faced, yelling at his subordinates.

"Try to collect all the rare quality equipment first!"

"Don't worry about the excellent quality ones! There's no time!"

"And those equipment blueprints! Throw away all those below Level 20! Only keep those above Level 20!"

His voice was somewhat hoarse from anxiety.

Zhou Huai controlled Ouyezi and slowly walked forward.

"Supervisor Shen."

His voice was calm, forming a stark contrast to the surrounding noise.

"What are you doing?"

Shen Qiu suddenly turned his head, and when he saw that it was Ouyezi, the anxiety on his face instantly turned into ecstasy.

He darted over, as if grasping a life-saving straw.

"Thank goodness! My Great Master Ouyezi! You're finally out!"

"I just had Lin Wei call you several times, but you didn't answer, I almost had to call someone to break down the door!"

Shen Qiu wiped a bead of cold sweat from his forehead, explaining in a very fast voice.

"Great Master, something big has happened in Donghai City! A beast attack! Unprecedented in scale!"

"The East City Wall is already fighting! I heard that this beast tide numbers over a million! Donghai City, it's very likely... it won't be able to hold!"

He pointed to the crowd not far away who were packing things, his face full of lingering fear.

"Now Old Master Ye Zhentian of the Ye family is organizing the city residents to evacuate!"

"Let's hurry up and pack our things and go! Any later, it will really be too late!"

After speaking, Shen Qiu seemed to remember something and quickly waved to a figure not far away who was organizing blueprints.

"Lin Wei! Lin Wei, come here quickly!"

The woman named Lin Wei heard the call and immediately trotted over.

When she saw Ouyezi, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, and she respectfully bowed.

Shen Qiu pointed at Ouyezi and urgently instructed Lin Wei.

"Quick! Don't pack anymore! Take Great Master Ouyezi to the Ye family now!"

"Just tell them he's Great Master Ouyezi, Old Master Ye Zhentian will definitely arrange for him to enter the teleportation gate first!"

He turned his head and said to Ouyezi again.

"Great Master, you go first! Once you reach Jiangning City, you'll be safe!"

"You are the treasure of our Great Xia Country's forging world, you absolutely cannot have anything happen to you!"

Lin Wei also stepped forward, bowing respectfully to Ouyezi.

"Great Master Ouyezi, let's go."

Her voice trembled slightly.

Clearly, this young girl also felt extreme fear regarding this sudden disaster.

However, facing their urging.

Zhou Huai calmly shook his head.

On his face, which was somewhat dark from the fierce fire and thick smoke, there was no ripple of emotion.

He looked at Shen Qiu and said very seriously:

"Everyone."

"We cannot leave!"
