Ordinary people can also be extraordinary

Zhang Chen now looked at the soldiers who were going out of the city to collect the crossbow arrows and were walking forward. At the same time, many horse-drawn carriages had arrived outside and were moving stones. He looked at the several open doors below and the tunnels dug by the earth-digging bugs.

A fragment seemed to flash through his mind and he was trying hard to recall it. At this moment, he heard a buzzing sound coming from the distance, as if countless flying insects and beasts were flying towards the city wall.

Zhang Chen immediately thought of something and shouted down:

"Close the door quickly."

The general didn't understand what was going on, so he said to Zhang Chen:

"What happened? Immortal Master."

"The Zerg are about to attack the city. Tell the soldiers to prepare."

Zhang Chen didn't have time to explain to him further, and immediately jumped down from the city wall. At the same time, he performed the Cloud-Stepping Step. It seemed as if an invisible staircase appeared in the air. Zhang Chen approached the city wall step by step. The soldiers on the wall were stunned.

Soon Zhang Chen arrived at the foot of the city wall. At this time, the soldiers who were picking up the crossbow arrows in front also shouted in fear, and dense swarms of Zerg rushed out from the tunnels dug by the digging bugs before.

They were all Zerg running at extremely fast speeds. They ignored the soldiers outside the city wall and went straight to the open gate in the city wall.

When Zhang Chen heard the noise, he immediately shouted to the soldiers guarding the secret door.

"Close the door, quickly."

But those secret doors were designed to be extremely thick, and dozens of soldiers could only move them slowly despite pushing. This time, in order to transport the stones, the doors were opened wide. Seeing this, Zhang Chen also joined the team pushing the doors.

The soldiers who were still transporting stones and repairing the city walls outside the city ran towards the city when they saw the incident, causing a traffic jam. The door could not be closed, and the soldiers who were pushing the door panicked and started to squeeze in.

Zhang Chen's face was also livid at this time, looking at the approaching Zerg.

"Could it be that the city wall was breached just like that?"

The sound of bows and crossbows on the city wall came late. Although many Zergs fell, the fast-running Zergs in front had already reached the foot of the city.

Zhang Chen began to think about what to do in this situation, and immediately shouted:

"Pour the oil and set the fire, quickly."

Then, he continuously condensed golden needles with his hands and shot them out at the approaching insect beasts, knocking them down one by one. However, more and more insect beasts were approaching. Zhang Chen immediately took out a spiritual sword, injected a large amount of spiritual energy into it, and swung a ten-meter-long sword beam at the approaching insect beasts, and the approaching insect beasts were immediately split in two.

The insect beasts behind immediately came up and sprayed countless venoms at them.

Zhang Chen could only dodge and retreat through the secret door. The insect beasts behind him immediately squeezed in. Zhang Chen could only continue to swing his spirit sword to kill the insect beasts that squeezed in. Soon another group rushed in. Zhang Chen continued to kill them. The passage of the secret door was almost blocked by the corpses of insect beasts. Looking at the insect beasts that continued to rush in, Zhang Chen's face turned pale, and the spiritual energy in his body was already in danger.

Suddenly, Zhang Chen saw a flame rising into the sky outside the city wall. Many insects and beasts that rushed into the secret door were set on fire and wailed constantly, but more insects and beasts continued to rush over.

Zhang Chen could only continue to retreat until he was out of the passage, where he saw countless soldiers around him armed with bows and crossbows, ready for battle.

As soon as the insect beast rushed out, it was shot dead. Seeing this, Zhang Chen immediately retreated behind the soldiers, swallowed a pill, practiced his skills, and restored his spiritual energy.

A moment later, a huge insect-beast rushed out from the passage. The arrows shot from the crossbows were bounced off its body. It rushed directly towards the soldiers on the side, leaped up, and jumped directly into the soldiers, crushing more than a dozen soldiers to death. With a swing of its strong and powerful forelimbs, more than a dozen soldiers vomited blood and fell to the ground and died.

Zhang Chen immediately rushed over, took out the spiritual needle, input spiritual power, and shot it straight at its eyes. In an instant, the spiritual needle passed through its eyes and entered its head. Immediately, its whole body shook and it fell heavily to the ground.

"Don't panic, keep your formation."

Zhang Chen shouted loudly to calm the panicked soldiers, then used the Golden Sword Slash to condense a giant sword, which directly split the insect beast's head, found the spiritual needle, and showed his strength to those soldiers.

When the soldiers saw Zhang Chen's divine power, their morale was boosted. They formed a formation again and stood guard against the secret door. Zhang Chen also continued to seize the time to absorb spiritual energy.

Soon more insect beasts passed through the fire, entered the passage, and came towards the crowd with a roar. This time there were five giant insect beasts at once, and Zhang Chen's eyelids twitched instantly.

He took out his magic sword and attacked the five insect beasts. A five-meter-long golden sword beam appeared. The five insect beasts immediately dodged left and right. Only two of them were unable to dodge and were severely injured, falling to the ground.

The other three did not attack Zhang Chen, but massacred the soldiers on both sides. The soldiers' formation was in chaos, and most of the arrows shot hit the insect beasts, and some spearmen could not break the defense with close attacks. Subsequent Zergs began to rush out of the passage.

"Can't hold on? What are those fellow disciples doing? Why don't they come to support us?"

Zhang Chen listened to the warning sound from the horn on the city wall, his face looked extremely ugly, and he felt powerless as he watched the insects and beasts constantly rushing out.

Most of the Zergs that rushed out were agile and strong. Some of them even had short wings. Although they could not fly very high, they could move short distances as fast as lightning.

Rushing into the group of soldiers, he could kill one with one bite. In less than a moment, the nearly one thousand soldiers who had been temporarily formed around him had completely collapsed. Zhang Chen could only keep retreating, looking at the insects that were following him. He condensed golden needles and shot them continuously, but Zhang Chen could not kill all the insects that kept rushing out.

"Uncle Master, should we go over and provide support now?"

At this time, more than a dozen Qingyumen disciples in long robes were seen waiting 500 meters away. A large number of soldiers had gathered behind them, all of them ready to fight.

At this time, everyone looked at the man in his thirties at the front. He was the one who led the team to support Wuyun City. His name was Liu Liankun and he was in the middle stage of foundation building.

He looked at the soldiers behind him who were ready.

"We have just assembled and are ready. We must advance steadily and not disrupt our formation because of them. As long as we block them here and wait for the soldiers on the city wall to cut off their retreat, we can close the door and fight the dog, and win for sure."

The disciple who spoke also knew this, but seeing those soldiers being slaughtered, they could only watch, and they still felt extremely uncomfortable.

The soldiers on the city wall were still shooting at the densely packed Zerg outside the wall. There were also swarms of flying insect beasts attacking in the air, but they did not get close. They only wandered outside the shooting range of the crossbows, looking for flaws. This tied down many crossbowmen, forcing them to be on guard in the sky and unable to attack the insect beasts on the ground outside the city wall.

The fire under the city wall had gradually died down, and the hot oil that had just been poured on the wall was covered up by the Zerg who had prepared below with soil or the corpses of their own kind, so that it could not form a huge fire to block the attack of the Zerg beasts.

The secret door at the bottom of the city wall was also completely opened by the Zerg. Without the obstruction of the fire, the number of Zerg beasts entering the city wall immediately doubled.

Zhang Chen kept retreating until he had retreated two hundred meters, when he saw the soldiers and fellow disciples who were prepared behind him. They just looked at him with sympathy but did not make any move to rescue him.
