Chapter 104: Grade Three

But with the battle underway, this giant supply elevator entrance was left critically understaffed.

"President Li, your task is to guard this area and prevent any flying star beasts from infiltrating the elevator." The young officer ordered loudly.

Li Xiaofei replied, "Don\'t worry, not a single star beast will get through."

The young officer added, "My name is Wu Junzhuang, platoon leader of the Fifth Platoon, Seventh Battalion, Liuhe Legion. If anything comes up, contact me on the team channel."

With that, he hurriedly left with his soldiers.

Chu Yuntian immediately began directing the Cloudy Sky Gang members to set up defenses around the elevator entrance. Li Xiaofei inferred from Wu Junzhuang\'s hasty demeanor that the troops on the city wall were indeed stretched thin. It was just a Level Three beast tide, yet the garrison seemed quite overextended.

That was not a good sign. He walked to the edge of the wall and looked over the steel parapet. The surging beast tide had endured the bombardment from the Wraths of Thor and various thermal weapons. Some of them were already within a kilometer of the steel city walls.

The region immediately before him was a dead zone for the Wraths of Thor. The defending troops would have to rely on lighter weapons for their offensive.

But the wall beneath his feet was more than up to the task, since it resembled more of a steel fortress than a wall. It was meticulously organized inside. Weapon ports opened at various heights and positions and started spewing streams of ammunition.

Li Xiaofei watched closely. Most of the weapons resembled the guns and cannons from five hundred years ago. But their killing efficiency wasn\'t high. However, another set of weapons fired energy beams, which were completely different from the weapons of the past civilization. Wherever the energy beams passed, star beasts fell instantly.

There were also some dispersal-type energy weapons that exploded upon impact, spreading in all directions. The fine light fragments mercilessly cut down star beasts in an incredible display of killing efficiency.

Suddenly—

Swish, swish, swish.

A strange whistling sound filled the air as several crimson energy clusters were launched high into the air. They spun like tops as they flew into the beast tide. When they landed, these tops left fiery trails, speeding through the star beast horde before exploding into blazing flames, turning the beasts\' path into a sea of fire.

Most of the smaller star beasts were reduced to ashes. However, some larger star beasts, their bodies engulfed in flames, became even more ferocious as they charged forward even faster.

Boom!

They crashed into the steel walls like moths to a flame. Their skulls shattered, and their bodies were pulverized. But the greenish-black blood they sprayed was highly corrosive. The steel walls hissed loudly as their surface grew pitted and uneven. Some unique star beasts were even immune to the fire. Their mouths and noses emitted thick crimson flames as they crossed the sea of fire unscathed. When they reached the base of the walls, they started spewing incredibly high-temperature flames. The steel started to glow cherry red as it started to melt.

Li Xiaofei\'s heart raced. These seemingly chaotic star beasts were coordinating different types of attacks. If this continued, these terrifying creatures would break through the fifty-meter-thick steel walls. He knew immediate action was necessary.

Fortunately, humanity didn\'t rely solely on weapons. They also had martial arts. Powerful martial artists clad in various types of battle armors swiftly started cutting down the star beasts at the wall with power weapons. Li Xiaofei saw a warrior in a mantis-like battle armor, one hand wielding a standard star-energy machine gun and the other a chainsaw sword, slicing through the star beasts as if they were nothing.

Even the giant star beasts that were immune to fire and had tough bone-like armor were as fragile as paper before the chainsaw sword. The beasts howled as they died to the warriors. Their corrosive greenish-black blood was blocked by star-energy shields and couldn’t damage the warriors’ armor.

He must be at least at the high stage of the Limit Breaking Realm. He’s an experienced battle armor master

Li Xiaofei’s blood was boiling with excitement. Thousands of battle armor martial artists guarded the walls, preventing them from being corroded and damaged. It was these strong and brave martial artists who allowed humanity to survive the onslaught of the rapidly reproducing star beasts.

They were the shield and the sword of the Republic. They risked their lives, fighting on the front lines to ensure the safety of their comrades. Witnessing this further solidified Li Xiaofei\'s determination to become a martial battle armor master. One day, he too would don armor and weapons and charge into battle like these great martial artists to slay star beasts and protect his race.

"Look, high-level star beasts!"

A member of the Cloudy Sky Gang suddenly pointed to the distant night sky in alarm.

Li Xiaofei followed his finger and saw dozens of giant lizards standing upright. They had somehow bypassed the Wraths of Thor\'s zone and were now less than a kilometer from the steel city walls.

Neither energy weapons nor the sea of fire could inflict fatal damage on them as they hurtled toward the steel walls. These were Grade Three star beasts, known as Humanoid Lizards. They were commonly referred to as Lizardmen. The presence of the word human in their name indicated a lot. Scientific studies had shown that Lizardmen possessed considerable intelligence. They could even use tools.

These dozen or so creatures before them were about four to five meters tall but moved with the speed of the wind as they advanced. They even wore some sort of scale armor and wielded bone weapons.

Li Xiaofei was stunned. In the light-network world\'s extensive simulation scenarios, he had encountered countless star beasts. But they were mostly Grade One star beasts. Their individual combat strength wasn\'t particularly high, and he could easily kill them in the Qi Refining Realm. But unexpectedly, his first real encounter with Grade Three star beasts was in a city defense battle.

If Grade Three star beasts appear, the city\'s alert level should be raised at least one level higher.

Li Xiaofei quickly recalled the basic knowledge he had learned in class. Tonight\'s beast tide seemed far from simple. The simultaneous appearance of over a dozen Grade Three star beasts leading the charge indicated something significant.

It suggested that the beast tide was likely orchestrated by at least Grade Four star beasts. Each beast tide wasn\'t a natural occurrence but driven by high-grade star beasts commanding the lower-grade ones in a grand hunt.

Grade Four star beasts! If that’s the case...

Li Xiaofei gasped. He realized that Liuhe Base City was facing a substantial crisis.

However...

"The authorities should have countermeasures," Li Xiaofei muttered to himself, confident in the city\'s defenses.

As his mind whirled, the dozen or so Lizardmen were rapidly approaching the base of the city wall. The battle armor martial artists didn\'t confront them directly. Instead, they quickly activated their short-range flight devices and ascended, retreating from the battlefield.

Grade Three star beasts possessed immense destructive power; even martial artists in the Limit Breaking Realm couldn\'t withstand them. The military commanders wouldn\'t risk their soldiers\' lives recklessly.

But the Lizardmen had peculiar suction cups on their palms and toes. They effortlessly climbed the steel walls, swiftly advancing toward the top. Three of them moved the fastest and headed for the B51 area where Li Xiaofei and his team were stationed like arrows shot from a bow.

"Damn," Chu Yuntian\'s face turned pale.

If those high-grade star beasts reached them, their hundred men, even fully armed, wouldn\'t stand a chance.
