Full-time Creation Master

.........

The military mage, having exhausted his magic, grabbed a magic-dispelling grenade and jumped down, exploding into a cloud of blood mist amidst the demon horde.

The new recruits behind him immediately filled his position, without even having time to glance at the corpses—hundreds of people died every minute, yet the gap could never be filled.

"boom--"

A loud bang came from the bottom of the fortress.

A colossal abyssal octopus, comparable in size to a tower, smashed a small section of the black iron city wall with its tentacles.

The general-level and commander-level demons could only slowly rub against the city wall, eventually creating a 20-meter-long crack.

The suction cups on the tentacles stuck to a mage, crushing him and his vehicle into a bloody pulp.

More smaller giant octopuses emerged from the sea, their tentacles sweeping down swarms of soldiers.

The breach in the fortress widened to ten meters, and the siren charged in like a madman.

Elena's eyes were bloodshot, and the high-level mages inside the fortress rushed towards the breach.

The fireball shattered the tentacles, the stone wall temporarily blocked the demon tide, and the water whip struck back at the tentacles.

A team of 12 super-tier mages fought the Abyss Giant Octopus to a standstill.

Three minutes later, the Abyss Giant Octopus unleashed a burst of power, repelling the super-class mage who didn't want to fight to the death, and retreated back into the deep sea to avoid being locked onto by the fortress's array capable of hunting monarch-level enemies!

Below, countless sea monsters also temporarily ceased their attacks, and the attacking force instantly thinned out tenfold—to prevent attacks from super-level mages!

Those who rushed into the fortress through the opening opened by the monarch continued to engage the defending troops in close combat until they died in battle!

The passageway was filled with corpses, severed limbs and tentacles intertwined.

The blood was up to her ankles, and every step she took was sticky.

Those who are alive can only continue fighting by stepping over corpses.

.........

The second major scene is the Emerald Fortress in the Emerald Mountains, which is also a bloody meat grinder!

Golden light emanated from the mage towers on the nine mountain peaks, weaving a giant dragon-shaped pattern of light above the fortress.

With a single roar, the dragon could shatter countless wolf-faced demons.

But the wolf-faced demons surged out of the pass like a yellow torrent, shattering one batch only to be replaced by ten more.

This fortress, perched at the throat of the mountain range, had its walls reinforced by earth-elemental mages into emerald diamonds.

The exorcising runes on the wall, which used to be dazzlingly bright, are now as dim as a candle about to go out.

Inside the city wall, ten thousand infantrymen formed a square formation.

The magic-powered longsword was worn dull from the blows, splitting open a wolf's head with each swing, but the wolf demon's claws were also tearing open the soldiers' chests.

The medic weaved through the gaps in the formation, and just as he was bandaging a wounded soldier, a wolf demon on the side bit off his neck.

The corpses were piled on top of each other and were quickly trampled underfoot by the soldiers following behind.

"The colossal elephant demon has breached the third pass! Lightning mages, prepare!"

Lorenzo, the mage who controlled the formation, stood atop the highest tower, his voice amplified through the sound-amplifying array, resounding throughout the fortress.

He raised his thunder staff, and the lightning in the clouds was immediately drawn down.

Thirty lightning mages simultaneously looked up, their staffs pointing to the sky. A purple lightning storm instantly formed, striking the giant elephant demon that had crashed into the wall.

A burst of lightning shattered the three-headed giant elephant demon's head.

But their massive bodies still crashed into the city wall, shaking the entire fortress, and the falling rocks killed more than a dozen soldiers.

The magic on the mage tower never stopped.

Exhausted, the mages leaned against the tower wall, panting. Some had just finished chanting spells when they collapsed on the tower from exhaustion, their bodies sliding into the demon horde without a sound.

"Earth Spike Technique! Activate!"

The earth mage beneath the city wall unleashed his power, sending sharp stone spikes piercing through the ground and instantly piercing three or four wolf demons.

But as soon as the stone spikes were retracted, the Bone-Rotting Demon, dragging its pus, pressed forward.

The venom sprayed by these demons can melt rocks, and the runes on the city walls that are splashed on them immediately emit black smoke and become ineffective.

The mage's robes were stained with venom, and instantly festered into hideous wounds, causing him to scream in agony.

Thirty earth-elemental mages worked together to build a five-meter-thick stone wall, which the giant elephant demon crushed with a single hoof.

Amidst the flying debris, soldiers were smashed into pieces, their blood and brains splattering onto the city walls.

At the breach, soldiers formed a wall.

The soldiers in the front row holding up their shields had deep dents in their shields from the fangs;

The person in the back row used a spear to stab the giant elephant demon in the eye, but the spear was shattered by the demon's power as soon as it pierced through, and the person flew out like a kite.

"The seventh stage of the Dragon Locking Formation has broken! Use your body to fix it!"

Lorenzo watched as the dragon's tail in the air began to dissipate, and without hesitation, he leaped from the top of the tower.

His body transformed into golden light in mid-air, merging into the gaps in the light patterns.

The dragon-shaped light pattern suddenly surged, biting through the heart of the leading giant elephant demon king.

Immediately afterwards, the super-level mages on the nine towers leaped out one after another.

They transformed into streaks of light, filling the cracks in the light patterns—making the light patterns grow ever brighter.

The makeshift medical stations inside the fortress were already overflowing with wounded soldiers.

The young apprentice was using healing magic to treat the veteran's abdominal wound, but his magic was quickly exhausted. He could only tightly bind the wound with a strip of cloth, watching the blood seep out from the gaps in the cloth.

Because there isn't even enough medicine!

Before he could finish speaking, a stalker of the Bone-Rotting Demon rushed in, spraying venom at the apprentice.

The apprentice instinctively stepped in front of the veteran, his cheek instantly festering, and his agonizing screams echoed throughout the fortress.

The veteran struggled to lift the broken gun and, with his last bit of strength, stabbed it into the demon's eye.

As the Bone-Rotting Demon fell, its claws tore open the veteran's throat.

The two men fell into a pool of blood and were quickly covered by stretchers carrying other wounded soldiers. Everyone seemed numb.

The high-ranking mages of the Dragon Riders made one last inspection tour before being immediately transferred to the front lines.

I don't know how much time passed...

The Dragon Locking Formation at Emerald Mountain Fortress has stabilized, and the golden dragon's light patterns are still roaring in the sky, but the number of people inside the nine mage towers is less than half of what it used to be.

The corpses of demons piled up like small mountains beneath the city walls, their pus mixed with blood, stinking to the point of nausea.

But no one dared to relax—a new wave of demonic shadows surged up on the distant horizon.

This is the meat grinder of the new era; the defense line is built with lives, and the price of victory is corpses everywhere.

Inside Shanghai University!

"Seriously, it was incredibly brutal!"

In one classroom, in response to Gao Yucai and Gao Shangshu's call for "teaching to be relevant to reality," the teacher of this psychology class also broadcast a live stream for half an hour, showing the extremely fierce battlefield to the proud students!

"I suddenly feel that peace is better!" a boy said quietly, and no one could tell that he was the same boy who had been clamoring for war just moments before!

"But war is unavoidable, and it's just around the corner!" a much more rational boy said calmly. "Right now, almost the entire world is fighting, is at war."

Only the Dragon Kingdom remains in a state of 'peace,' like a grain of rice mixed into a pile of excrement. What do you think will happen next?

*Slap slap*...

After tapping on the chopping board, the teacher, who had been teaching for 30 years, spoke up:

As the ancients said, death can be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai!

"Furthermore, His Excellency Chu Ming said that true Chinese people are not afraid of sacrifice."

However, this is not the same as sending someone to their death without understanding its purpose or meaning!

The cloudiness in his eyes cleared, replaced by a shrewd look. The teacher began, "Times are changing. You were born into a terrible era; war will be your dominant theme!"

"But you are also lucky!"
