LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 65
Time passed day by day.
On the first day, Ao Sa was twice as worried as usual when facing Liu Ji, who had no basic skills and could not speak the language. His respect for Ya Yin was raised to a higher level.
On the second day, the sales of the Fairy Trap Inn reached a new high.
On the third day, Guo Guo was abducted by the potatoes to join the ranks of the city-guarding hunters.
On the fourth day, the craftsmen completed the improvement of the city-guarding crossbow.
On the fifth day, Mo Wente came back once and said that he had not found any traces related to the tyrant's men.
On the seventh day, a small earthquake occurred.
On the ninth day, a small wave of monsters attacked Mir City. What everyone did not expect was that a group of potatoes shone brightly in this battle.
On the tenth day, the old president returned to Mir City with dozens of mercenaries he had barely found. Obviously, this trip to seek help was not smooth.
On the eleventh day, the improved version of the city-guarding crossbow was fully assembled.
On the twelfth day, Liu Ji's punching finally looked a bit like that.
On the thirteenth day, Yain finally completed his complicated magic array and prepared the preparations for the upper magic retention chant.
On the fourteenth day, accompanied by a short and strong earthquake, countless dragons in the distant valley flew into the sky.
The hunters knew.
The beast tide was about to begin.
110. I am not bragging, I am afraid of my own punch
On the city wall, the hunters were ready, rubbing their hands, as if facing a great enemy.
In their imagination, there should be wild beasts rushing over like a tsunami, and they need to fight with all their strength to resist the attack of the wild beasts.
However, after waiting for two hours, only a few small and medium-sized monsters came sporadically, and there was no need to use any city defense crossbows. A few hunters jumped off the city wall and solved it.
After waiting for another two hours, a large monster appeared, but it was killed in a few moves in front of the hunters who were dressed in armor.
The hunters were a little confused. This situation was really different from what they imagined.
I always feel that it seems to be not much different from the small wave of monsters that attacked here a few days ago.
The hunters' high morale at the beginning gradually turned into doubts. They began to suspect that perhaps this was just a small impact, and the real beast tide might not have come yet?
Not to mention the hunters, even Bumijak was also confused.
He had not taken action all the time, just intending to take action to deal with the most difficult enemies at the first time.
As a result, after watching for a long time, all the people who came were rotten fish and shrimps, so he could only stand on the city wall in a daze, making it like fishing.
Just when the hunters were confused, the old president who had just completed the arrangements inside the city came to the city wall.
As soon as he came here, he looked at the city wall crowded with hunters and frowned immediately.
"Why are you all crowded here?" The old president asked in doubt, "Shouldn't I let Lao Luo arrange the shifts for you?"
The hunters were stunned and suddenly remembered that there was such a thing.
It seems that Lao Luo posted a schedule in the guild more than a week ago...
But, according to that schedule, about 80% of them should be resting in the city or doing logistics, so they subconsciously think that it is the schedule before the beast tide comes.
But before the beast tide comes, it seems that no one is on duty according to that schedule, and they gradually forget about it.
After hearing the hunters' explanation, the old guild leader sighed.
"You guys, really," the old guild leader said helplessly, "Now follow the schedule, those who need to rest should rest, those who need to do logistics, drag the bodies of the previous monsters in, skin them, and cook the meat."
For a while, the hunters looked at each other.
"Huh? President, has the beast tide not started yet?" A hunter asked in confusion.
"No, it has already started," the old guild leader shook his head.
"But so far, there are very few monsters coming..." another hunter interrupted.
"Do you want more monsters to come?" The old guild leader rolled his eyes.
"No, that's not what I meant, but..." The hunter hesitated.
"Alas, I don't know what you imagine the beast tide to be like, but I must remind you that if you continue to stay here like now, carrying weapons and staring at the outside of the city, within three days, you will all be fucking dead," the old president frowned, "and the last beast tide lasted for three months.
Maybe you are energetic now, and the beast tide has just started, you will think that this situation seems to be no big deal,
but I think it won't be long, when you are stared at by wandering monsters 24 hours a day, you will understand where the horror of this disaster lies."

In the dense forest, Snow was hiding in the treetops outside the entrance of the deep valley.
He could feel that the things in the cave had woken up.
The previous earthquake did not seem to be accidental, but a certain change caused by a certain spell at a certain period.
And the giant beast in the deep valley seemed to be agitated because of this change.
And the so-called beast tide seemed to be the surrounding monsters instinctively migrating out because of fear.
As for the lizards that were regarded as harbingers before, it was more like they simply warned of this unnatural earthquake and left the rock forest nest that was likely to collapse in advance.
"Sure enough, the problem is still with this guy himself," Snow touched his chin, a little distressed.
He didn't want to go in before, fearing to alarm this big guy, but now that this big guy has woken up, he dared not go in directly.
It's very troublesome.
In two weeks, he didn't find a single node of the spell, and now he can only assume that the main body of the spell is all in the cave.
But now he can't enter the cave, he can only freeze at the door, neither leaving nor staying.
Just as Snow was struggling, suddenly, he felt a trace of discordant breath.
The breath was very weak and far away, but he still sensed it.
Because it was the breath of the tyrant's minions.
"The tyrant's dog is approaching here?" Snow frowned immediately.
He looked in the direction of the breath.
It's not from Mill City, nor from the end of the canyon, but from the side...
But according to the local map, there should be uninhabited mountains and wilderness.
"Teleport? The purpose is clear. It seems that it is necessary to take a look..." Snow thought, and jumped towards the source in that direction.

Mill City, outside the Fairy Trap Inn.
Yain held a staff, and several strange gems shining with strange brilliance floated around her, standing in a complex magic array.
The magic array is circular in shape, with symmetrical patterns and a small round platform on each side.
Yain stood on the round platform on this side, and the yellow-haired girl stood on the round platform on the other side.
At this time, she still looked ahead with confused eyes, with tears on her face, and seemed to be immersed in the grief of "the whole family died suddenly".
Not far in front of her, Liu Ji was regulating his breath and doing warm-up exercises.
Twisting his waist, stretching his back, and moving his shoulders, Liu Ji stood in front of the yellow-haired girl, clenched his fists, and opened his hands.
"Are you ready?" Ya Yin asked.
"Yes, I'm ready," Liu Ji nodded.
"Well, you can punch," Ya Yin said, "Remember, you must be fast, accurate, and ruthless, and never hesitate. The moment you punch, she should wake up. Her movements will be slowed down in the magic array, but it is still possible that she can make an emergency response."
"Ah, I understand," Liu Ji took a deep breath and nodded.
Although he proposed to throw this punch, Liu Ji was really nervous when he really stood in this position.
Fortunately, he has been practicing punching repeatedly these days. Now, even if he is nervous, he just needs to punch this person in the face with all his strength as he did in training.
Swallowing his saliva, Liu Ji looked at the girl's face.
She was still so pitiful, looking at him helplessly and confusedly, with sadness in her eyes.
Even though Liu Ji had confirmed with Ya Yin countless times, he was still a little shaken.
Is this true expression really a deceptive disguise?
Could it be that he just killed an innocent girl with one punch?
Take a deep breath...
Liu Ji turned his head and looked at Ya Yin again.
After seeing the firm look in her eyes, he still clenched his fist.
At this time, rather than doubting his own judgment, he chose to believe Ya Yin.
"Okay, then I'll start," Liu Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he clenched his fist, sank his body, stepped, turned, and punched out, pointing directly at the opponent's face.
Without any warning, Liu Ji roared out the first sentence that appeared in his heart as a war cry: "Demon! Show your true form!"
At that moment, Liu Ji had an illusion.
It was as if the flow of time slowed down during this punch.
He watched the girl's hair turn from yellow to deep black, her sad and confused eyes turned deep and cold, her harmless face turned cold and indifferent.
In this short moment, he could feel that the other party actually raised her head and looked at him.
And she also showed a contemptuous smile.
Then, she just opened her mouth, and a dark barrier appeared instantly, completely sheltering the whole person.
She actually completed the defensive action in such a short time!
But, just because her defense was completed, Liu Ji's last instinctive concern disappeared.
At this moment, he had already experienced the enemy's strength.
This made him almost instinctively pour all his strength into this attack.
This attack was the strongest attack he had never made during training.
Just in the force stage, he could feel that the sand and dust that made up his skin was disintegrating because of this force that exceeded the limit.
However, facing such an attack, the woman on the other side of the barrier still didn't care, with a look of contempt.
"Bang!"
Liu Ji's fist collided with the barrier.
Without any obstacles, the barrier was easily shattered like a dry pancake.
At that moment, Liu Ji saw that the woman's expression changed.
In just a moment, just like the face-changing in Sichuan Opera, her expression changed from contempt to horror.
At that moment, Liu Ji suddenly realized.
Oh, it turns out that the other party is just pretending!
It seems that he may have used too much force...
"Bang!"
Liu Ji's fist hit the woman's face.
Her head exploded like a watermelon dropped from the 80th floor. The powerful aftermath even shattered her entire upper body into pieces. Even her thighs split apart from her buttocks, and her two thighs flew in two different directions like freshly slaughtered hams.
Finally, even the last two calves that were left in place were slightly tilted and fell to the ground because of the air wave.
One punch.
Although he had hit the enemy, it seemed as if he had hit nothing.
