Chapter 361: Chapter 36: Square World, the Intelligent Mechanism Killing Machine Debuts

Square World.

"KILL!!! No one retreats! If you fall back now, your families and children in the city will not be spared!"

"For your own survival, for your families, and for the entire city, pull yourselves together!"

"It’s live or die! In short, this is the only path between us and the infected."

In Brady County City, countless guards and Professionals were locked in a chaotic battle with the Snake People scaling the city walls.

Casualties were heavy on both sides, but for either of them, there was no path of retreat!

Below the walls swarmed massive serpents and more Snake People.

These so-called contaminants hissed and shrieked, calling their companions to continue the assault on the city.

This was despite the mountains of corpses already piled at the foot of the walls.

The war had been raging for a full half-month.

The Magic Power in the surrounding region had long since been drained dry. Both the Snake People and the humans in the city had run out of supplies to replenish their Magic Power.

The city’s protective Barrier had shattered long ago.

Before this, the battle between the Saint Tier and High Tier Professionals and the contaminants had already concluded.

Evidently, neither the Snake People contaminants nor the human Professionals had gained any advantage in the preceding clashes.

Having inflicted casualties on each other and exhausted their Magic Power, these high-tier combatants naturally withdrew from the field.

Thus, the war for the city was ultimately left to the Middle Tier Professionals and below to fight against the Snake People.

Moreover, at this stage of the battle, both sides had nearly exhausted their Magic Power.

As a result, in the battle for the city, you could even see Middle Tier Professionals and Snake People fighting to the death using nothing but pure physical Power.

The casualties on both sides were nothing short of catastrophic.

There was no escape from Brady City, and certainly no hope of reinforcements.

As for the Snake People, their situation wasn’t much better. After all, the force currently besieging the city comprised every last Snake Person from hundreds of kilometers around.

Therefore, for both the contaminant Snake People and the humans, this was a war they could only win, not lose.

If the humans lost, the entire Human Race in Brady County would be wiped out.

If the Snake People lost, they would naturally be pursued and completely annihilated by the victorious humans of Brady County.

Thus, regardless of the casualties, both sides had a reason they could not lose.

"High Priest!"

"These humans can’t hold out for much longer! I think it’s time we made our move, don’t you?"

Far from the battlefield, a High Tier Snake Person spoke, its gaze greedy as it looked at a Saint Tier Snake Person.

"Hmph. At this point, it makes no difference whether we move or not!"

"The Magic Power of this entire land has been drained dry. With little Magic Power left to use, the humans are like turtles in a jar."

"Rather than killing all these humans, we should leave more of them alive. Only then can our people grow stronger and win more favor from the great Father Snake."

The High Tier and Saint Tier Snake People were clearly intelligent!

Though their intellect wasn’t profound, they were far superior to the Middle Tier and lower Snake People who knew only how to charge and kill.

"The High Priest is right!"

"Besides, what makes you think the humans are about to lose?"

"Plenty of those fellows who fought us before are still recuperating. If we rush in now, won’t we just have to fight them again?"

"If you want to throw your life away, that’s your business. I, for one, want to preserve my useful body to serve the great Father Snake."

The other High Tier Snake Person suddenly spoke, its thoughts clearly more agile.

"You coward! You’re not worthy of being one of the great Father Snake’s children!"

"If we want to destroy that city, we’ll have to fight those guys again sooner or later. Are you really expecting those lowly Snake People to match them in physical strength?"

The crimson-eyed Snake Person’s face was savage and cold.

It glared at the Snake Person who had retorted, its killing intent completely unconcealed.

"Enough! All of you foolish whelps, shut your mouths!"

"For now, you will listen to me. We will observe the humans’ situation a while longer before deciding anything!"

"If you wish to die, by all means, keep arguing."

The Saint Tier Snake Person’s gaze was savage.

A single glance was all it took for both High Tier Snake People to immediately lower their heads and fall silent.

Seeing this, the Saint Tier Snake Person was very pleased.

However, just at that moment, as its gaze swept across a certain part of the battlefield, its vertical pupils suddenly contracted.

"What is that?"

???

The Snake Priestess murmured in confusion.

Hearing this, the other Snake People immediately looked up, following the Snake Priestess’s line of sight.

Soon, they discovered it—on the battlefield, to the south, behind the Snake People’s main force.

Less than ten meters above the ground, a seven-colored point of light had suddenly appeared.

The point of light was small.

But it was exceptionally bright and dazzling.

It wasn’t just the Snake People who noticed it; even the humans on the city walls saw it!

Just as a Middle Tier Professional, clad head-to-toe in thick Leather Armor, fought to kill a Snake Person, he turned his head and saw the dazzling flash of light appear less than five hundred meters from the city walls.

The flash quickly drew the attention of the human soldiers, Professionals, and Snake People caught in the fighting.

"What is that?"

"Could it be reinforcements from the Kingdom? Or is it a gift bestowed by the Deities?"

Staring at the seven-colored flash, many humans instinctively thought of the great Deities.

After all, in this world, and in this very war against the Snake People, there had been many instances of intervention from the Deities.
