Chapter 120: Melee Fight

Before, they flew down because they were afraid of flying too high and being seen by the wild monster. But now that they saw the city wall, they just needed to fly back at a low altitude.

Lu Jiu, on the other hand, was extremely calm and not shy. She took out her bow and arrow and shot an arrow at the wild monster following them.

That wild monster was just an ordinary-level wild monster with very little HP, so it was killed with just one arrow.

Just like this, Lu Jiu slowed down the geese that were attacking them, and the three of them were about to reach the city gate.

“Dad!”

From afar, Zhuang Yun heard his daughter’s call, and there was a cry in her shout.

He tightened the grip on his giant sword, but he didn’t think of looking behind him. Instead, he looked for his daughter’s position, and he saw her in just a few seconds.

Zhuang Antong cried and howled and wanted to run out, but she was held back by Old Man Zeng. He was heartbroken and turned around with red eyes to chop away a wild goose with his giant sword.

At this time, he saw a large group of wild monsters swooping down on them, vowing to keep their posture.

“Don’t worry.”

Zhuang Yun heard Lu Jiu say these three words in his ears. He somehow calmed down and saw his two teammates looking at him with firm expressions.

When Lin Zuo saw the familiar three people, he took out his weapon and prepared to support them. Even though most of the wild monsters were not high-level, there were too many of them, and they couldn’t be dealt with even if they were kept.

At this time, they were only a hundred meters away from the city. As they made the final sprint, the speed of the geese increased.

Those wild monsters were close at hand, and there were professional players at the gate of the city-state walking out to help them.

*Boom*

This sound was strange yet familiar. People raised their heads and looked at the city wall. It was a cannon!

“It’s the weapons on the wall!” Someone shouted.

Other professional players who were about to go out to help were startled by the loud noise.

Immediately afterward, all the cannons automatically aimed and bombed the wild geese. More than a dozen cannons attacked together, and they scattered the wild geese.

Lu Jiu and others also flew to the city gate. After Shen Jufeng put her down, the two of them immediately joined the battle.

Zhuang Yun glanced at his daughter, and instead of running to comfort her, he turned around and fought with his teammates.

Lu Jiu said loudly: “The rewards for killing these wild geese include skin that can be used to make winter clothes.”

Hearing about this reward, everyone’s eyes lit up. They were now scarce of such materials.

On the city wall, the cannons kept bombing the geese. Originally, the wild geese covered the sky, but now, they were broken up into dozens of small groups.

The city-state shield protects the interior of the city-state, while professional players all stepped out to fight at the front.

Some professional players turned around and told ordinary residents: “Don’t go out of the city gate.”

Everyone nodded obediently.

Shen Jufeng: “We have collected a lot of tempered fruits, but without one to attract them, the priority target of these wild monsters is us.”

This was the first time a large-scale battle broke out in the city-state. Among the scattered wild monsters, several small groups attacked humans, and some chose to move on. They had to go to the next location to find the tempered fruit.

Brother Wen stared at the wild monsters flying away and said to the people next to him: “Not all the wild monsters attacked us, there are still some that are left.”

Ordinary residents in the city-state had mixed feelings when they saw the professional residents fighting outside. Most of them had never seen how these people dealt with wild monsters before.

But after seeing it today, they realized that they can also be bitten by wild monsters, and they have to spend all their strength to kill them.

The archers were all standing in the back row. Lu Jiu found that these people were quite powerful. Many of the archers had a good hit rate, which was much better than You Xiaoyu, the woman she met before.

Cheng Yunshi and her brother joined Lin Zuo’s team. In the crowd, she had already seen Lu Jiu and the other two. Thinking of Shen Jufeng hugging Lu Jiu, she couldn’t help but look at the woman who was concentrating on attacking the wild monsters.

Today, Lu Jiu was wearing a knee-length beige windbreaker, underneath was an off-white pullover gown. The high collar highlights her slender neck. The off-white color makes her neck fairer and slender. She has delicate features, curved eyebrows, and almond-shaped eyes. The bridge of her nose was not particularly straight, but it was small and exquisite. At this time, her rose-colored lips were slightly pursed, while her hands kept shooting arrows.

When Cheng Yunshi saw her for the first time, she thought Lu Jiu looked non-aggressive. Her eyes were watery and clear, making people want to get closer unconsciously.

But now, when she saw her focusing on dealing with wild monsters, like a sharp sword thrust out of the water, she was completely different from before.

She likes Shen Jufeng, but she cares more about Lu Jiu. Shen Jufeng’s behavior today makes people wonder if something was going on between the two.

Even though the expressions of both of them were serious at that time, even when Lu Jiu was picked up, her first thought was to take out her bow and arrow to attack the wild monster behind him.

“What are you thinking about?”

Someone from the team members patted her shoulder, and Cheng Yunshi came back to her senses. Her teammates followed her gaze and looked at Lu Jiu. Could it be that she likes girls?

Cheng Yunshi shook her head: “I accidentally got distracted.”

She was a magician, so she should concentrate on releasing her skills.

Although the man was surprised that she felt uncomfortable, dealing with the wild monsters was the most important thing at this time.

Lin Zuo pierced the neck of the wild goose in front of him with a dagger. When its HP was exhausted, it turned into a light and disappeared.

At this moment, he slowly changed his weapon and looked at the agile Shen Jufeng not far away. He was very strong, but his teammates were not bad either.

Shen Jufeng and others have always been operating as a three-person team. They do not join any teams, let alone form temporary teams. They act like a three-person team all the time.

Looking at it now, they have that proud capital, and everyone’s strength was pretty good.

This melee battle lasted for more than half an hour. Although there were many geese, there were also many professional residents in the city. After the battle, no one’s HP dropped below 30%.

Who knows who led the applause, but the others followed suit, bringing together the ordinary residents inside the city gate.

Amidst the applause, Lu Jiu put down her sore arms and rubbed her eyes. During this battle, she had been staring closely at the wild monsters approaching her teammates.

They feel relaxed, as do other residents.

“Phew—it’s finally over.”

“These birds are really scary.”

“Fortunately, there are more that have flown away, otherwise we would have to retreat and rest before continuing the fight.”

However, this also shows that these birds were indeed migrating all the way south, and they were probably the ones Ruan Fanyao and the others encountered.

Now that they had some free time, they thought about looking at the channels from the same province, only to realize that something was wrong.

All city-states in Jinjiang District were attacked by wild geese but at different times. However, the previous player Mi Qingyi gave a warning, and many people fled back to the city-states.

“Say, is Xuantian City the first city-state to be attacked?”

“I don’t know, but I look at the city lord’s email. My mind is full of thoughts, but I still rush back.”

Hearing these conversations, Lin Zuo glanced at Dou Fanrong next to him: “Do you think Mi Qingyi and the city lord are the same people?”

After they received the email from the city lord, Mi Qingyi immediately spoke on the provincial channel.

Moreover, the name Mi Qingyi was branded as false information. It was obvious that she was a pioneer player and had props that could change personal information and even personal image.

Dou Fanrong let out a muffled laugh: “Probably, after all, the time of sending messages is almost the same.”

He was very interested in the prop that changes personal information. If he knew this person, he would want to buy one to play with.
