I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

The terror of [Calamity] only becomes apparent after it has been used several times in a row; it is especially suitable for clearing out low-level monsters under the city walls.

However, without the poison, Anno cannot use [Calamity] to spread.

Just as Anno was preparing to find a new target to use [Poison Fungus] on, a group of frenzied orcs charged up the newly risen slope from the side.

Among the dozens of orcs, eight were at the fourth rank!

"roar!"

One of the level 24 orcs charged up the city wall with a wooden shield the size of a door, roared, and used brute force to knock away a soldier who couldn't dodge in time.

Behind him, an orc wielding a short-handled axe beheaded another soldier who charged forward!

These orc races are similar in race and work together seamlessly, suggesting they are monsters from the same tribe.

Furthermore, with their combined strength at the fourth tier, and working with other monsters, they instantly tore through a small section of the city wall's defenses.

The city wall was only five meters wide.

Nearly fifty orcs formed a 30-meter-long defensive line on the city wall.

If they are allowed to continue guarding the top, even more monsters will climb up through this thirty-meter gap.

Anno immediately changed targets, rushing to the side with his shadow and summoned creatures.

Of the seventy-nine summoned creatures, sixty are of the fourth rank, and most of them are sea creatures.

Summoning a Tier 4 summon requires 5000 mana. These summons were created by Anno over time through the sacrifice of materials and souls from the sea creatures.

The remaining twenty are all Tier 3.

The reason is that Anno no longer has the sacrificial materials for fourth-tier summons.

On the battlefield right now, there isn't a shortage of fourth-tier orange souls for Anno—every one or two minutes, the souls of fourth-tier monsters, killed by unknown individuals, enter his tent.

However, Anno has only collected a dozen or so sacrificial materials so far.

Since the twenty Tier 3 summons have not yet been killed in battle, Anno has not yet summoned any new Tier 4 summons.

The orc, who had just gained his footing, suddenly saw a large group of monsters wearing red scarves and a knight in full black armor rushing towards him from his right.

"Men, be careful! These people wearing red scarves are all domesticated lackeys of humans. Kill them!"

One of the orcs, a shaman wearing a bone mask, raised his staff, and black orbs condensed in front of him before flying toward the summoned creature at the front!

boom!

The flat city wall was blasted into an uneven surface, and several summoned creatures hit by the magic orb were blasted into the air.

But even more summoned creatures rushed forward, led by the shadow.

Stab it!

The lizardman leader also unleashed lightning magic, sending bolts of lightning flying into the orc horde and exploding, arcs of electricity shooting out, causing the lower-ranking orcs to scream in agony from the shock.

"kill!"

Shadow led the charge into the orc horde, slashing the arm of the orc in front of him with his sword, then using his shield to block an attack from the side.

Shadow glanced at the orc shaman who was preparing to cast a spell, then forcefully pushed the orc away from the shield and began chanting a spell.

"Turn off the lights!"

boom!

A cloud of black mist exploded from the center of the shadow and quickly spread outwards.

The monsters within the black mist suddenly found themselves unable to see their surroundings.

Beyond three meters, it was all pitch black!

[Summoning from the Mist]!

The shadow, once summoned, also possessed over 30,000 magic power.

The mist it summoned was the same one that Anno had marked in the underworld.

The sudden appearance of mist on the city wall attracted the attention of many people.

"What happened there?"

A nearby soldier captain, who was fighting a fifth-tier monster, saw this scene and anxiously asked Anno, who was outside the mist, a question.

"Hordes of monsters have stormed the city walls! My men are dealing with them!"

Anno replied without turning his head.

Within the swirling black mist, Shadow and his summoned creatures, taking advantage of their superior vision, attacked the orcs who had gathered together.

Orcs gather together to seek a sense of security.

They assumed that the enemy would also lose sight of them in the black fog.

But when he heard screams of pain from his companions all around him, the shaman immediately ordered the people around him to scatter!

It guessed that the black mist had no effect on the enemy.

The shaman left only a level 25 orc by his side to protect him and moved behind him.

It wanted to leave the area affected by the black fog.

Suddenly, the knight in full black armor burst out of the black mist.

With their vision obstructed, by the time they spotted the knight, he was already right in their face.

puff!

The sound of a sword blade slicing through flesh rang out.

The orc beside the shaman pulled him behind him, using his body to block the shadow's sword strike.

"roar!"

The orc had a sword stuck in his abdomen. Enduring the excruciating pain, he gripped the sword with his left hand to prevent the shadow from pulling it out, while his right hand slammed down with the spiked club.

Shadow snorted coldly, channeling magic into the sword and twisting the hilt.

The magically sharpened longsword instantly severed the five fingers of the orc's left hand that was holding the sword.

Then the shadow drew its longsword and retreated.

The cramping pain in his abdomen made the orc convulse, and he almost dropped the spiked club in his right hand.

"roar!"

As the shadow was about to disappear into the black mist, the orc's eyes widened, and he roared again.

The voice seemed to contain magical power.

Just as the shadow was about to attack again, it suddenly felt dizzy and its movements froze.

Seizing the opportunity, the orc swung his spiked club and smashed it toward the shadow's head.

Just as the orc was about to succeed, another figure rushed out from the black mist beside them, knocking the orc to the ground.

The sea creatures nearby saw that the shadow was in danger and rushed over to help.

Then the sea creature and the orc began to fight on the ground.

The shadow was controlled by the roar for less than two seconds.

When he regained consciousness, he sensed the magical fluctuations emanating from beside him and instinctively moved his left-hand shield over.

boom!

The orc shaman's all-out attack blasted the shadow's shield away, and the shadow was also blasted back several steps, hiding in the mist.

If it weren't for the magical equipment, Shadow might not have been able to withstand the shaman's attack!

"I'll take care of you first! [Continuous Thrust] [Gale Blade]!"

The shadow, having recovered, suddenly lunged at the shaman who was still searching for the shadow's tracks, unleashing several sword energies with its longsword, severely injuring the shaman!

Just as the blood-soaked shaman was about to retaliate, he suddenly noticed that the shadow had retreated into the black mist again.

The shaman lost sight of the situation again.

Without any orc warriors to protect him this time, the shaman threw spells around in a fit of rage before turning and fleeing toward the city wall behind him.

They can't win, so they want to retreat!

"Now that you're on our home turf, don't even think about going back!"

A huge black shadow rushed over from the side and knocked the shaman away.

Sassi opened her mouth to spit out a black pillar to bombard the shaman, but was stopped by the shadow.

"Leaving the corpse will allow you to continue summoning, don't waste it!"

If the materials needed for the sacrifice are blasted into dust, a fourth-tier combatant will be lost.

Shadow didn't use [Poisonous Fungus] in the previous battle because he was afraid of damaging the corpse.

Shadow and Sasser charged toward the shaman's location, and using their superior vision, they beheaded the orc shaman in just a few rounds.

Then Shadow and Sassi went to deal with the level 25 orc who almost smashed the brains out of the sea creature's summon.

Despite having been injured by the shadows, the level 25 orc was still able to overpower the level 22 sea creature.

However, after Shadow and Sassi joined the battle, the wounded orc held on for a minute before being surrounded and killed.

Looking around, almost all the summoned creatures in the black mist had stopped attacking.

More than forty orc corpses lay scattered on the ground around them.

The only surviving orc was being choked by a fourth-tier Thunderstorm Bear summon that had stood upright, its eyes bulging as it struggled incessantly.

Click!

With a forceful pull, the orc in Thunderstorm Bear's grasp stopped struggling.

An orange soul rose from the corpse and flew to Anno outside the black mist.

ta ta ta ......

A series of footsteps came from behind.

The shadow and its summoned creatures turned to look behind them and found that more and more monsters were climbing up the city wall.

These monsters were all low-level, and they were stunned as soon as they entered the mist.

Why did it suddenly get dark?

The shadow took the shield that had just been blown away from the other summoned creatures, and then said to an octopus-like sea creature:

"Move all these fourth-tier corpses next to the main body! Everyone else, get to work!"
