The relatives hiding inside the Lord's Mansion were trembling.
Looking at the terrifying number of monsters outside Xingyu City, their faces turned deathly pale in fear.
Blame their bad luck.
As soon as they arrived in this world, they encountered the major event of a blood tide outbreak.
With their strength, they couldn't defeat even the weakest monster among them.
Now, they could only place all their hope on the five figures on the city wall.
As the monster army got closer.
Han Xing remained unflustered.
Because just an hour ago.
The second batch of Thunderbolt Towers he built had also been announced complete.
Now, there were a total of 23 Thunderbolt Towers in his territory!
The siege crossbow arrows and flamethrower catapults had already proven one point, that although there were many monsters, they couldn't withstand the power of these attack facilities.
Not to mention, the Thunderbolt Towers, which had even greater power!
This was the source of Han Xing's confidence.
In fact, with the range of the Thunderbolt Towers, Han Xing could easily wipe out this group of monsters from ten thousand meters away.
But he recalled the scene just after killing that group of monsters, where all the corpses fell down.
For a moment, he felt a bit regretful.
He knew that these monsters could drop quite a lot of materials.
Among them was the Cursed Blood that he urgently needed.
Thus, Han Xing made a bold decision.
Wait until these monsters charged overhead, approached the territory, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop!
When the mutant army charged to within a kilometer of the protective shield, Han Xing still hadn't acted.
Two seconds later, the monster horde was already less than five hundred meters away from Han Xing.
Everyone held their breath.
At three hundred meters.
Han Xing glanced around the situation.
The vast majority of nearby monsters were already within optimal range.
The next moment, Han Xing exhaled lightly and said, "It's time."
"Let you witness the power of the Thunderbolt Tower!"
Zzz... Zz zz...
The dense sound of electric currents came.
The next moment.
More than twenty Thunderbolt Towers emitted vast blue beams of destruction, instantly covering the blood-red mutant army.
These beams carrying powerful electric currents intertwined and unleashed terrifying energy.
The entire sky seemed to be covered by a terrifying net of electricity.
Crackling!
The nearest group of mutant monsters, under the horrific electrical discharge, turned directly to ash.
The monsters behind were instantly charred black all over.
Not only that, Han Xing's second wave of siege crossbow arrows and catapults also launched at this time.
Rumble!
Flame and lightning roared together, interspersed with massive arrows with overwhelming destructive power!
The violent impact made the entire Sky Island tremble constantly.
At this moment.
The scene, like a divine punishment, was deeply etched into the hearts of those relatives.
When the commotion subsided.
Everyone stared blankly at the sky.
Meanwhile, corpses of monsters fell from the sky one by one.
Han Xing hurriedly opened the protective shield.
One by one, scorched monster bodies fell into his territory, making raindrop-like pounding sounds.
The blood-red torrent that had once veiled the sky had vanished.
As if the god controlling thunder and lightning had forcibly driven them out of the sky!
On the territory, dozens of people stared blankly at this scene, hearts filled with mixed emotions.
Even their relatives, who had just arrived in this world, clearly understood what this represented.
In the chat channel, they had long learned how terrifying these monsters were.
Any random mutant could easily kill this group of people in a second, even those teams numbering in the thousands or tens of thousands were frantically summoning their members to collectively resist the monster attack.
But the man before them, without moving a single step, relied solely on those powerful structures in his territory to nearly annihilate tens of thousands of mutated monster tides!
At this moment, they understood the words of Cheng Jianyong.
In this world, there really was no place safer than Han Xing's territory!
At this time, they thought of the resolutely departing Wen Xinling,
In their hearts, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.
At the same time, they also gained a direct understanding of Han Xing's abilities!
When the blood-red curtain covering the sky was torn open, only a few hundred scattered mutant monsters were left on the scene.
They seemed to be frightened by Han Xing's terrifying firepower, and without any hesitation, turned around and fled.
Han Xing pondered for a moment and chose not to pursue them.
Once the monsters had completely disappeared, everyone collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
Sigh...
Shen Yun gulped in awe, saying, "It's terrifying, is this the power of the Thunder Tower?"
"Such a wide range and enough damage, in one go, at least thousands of monsters are killed, let alone with over twenty towers!"
"My god, just set up one in a territory and it could handle this monster attack of the Blood Tide, right?"
Shen Yun wasn't wrong. For ordinary survivors, if they could build a Lightning Tower, as long as they formulate a reasonable strategy around it, they could completely withstand this monster wave.
Han Xing's over twenty towers were already an overflow of firepower!
However, Han Xing still felt unsatisfied.
"No, it's not enough."
"This time it was relatively easy mainly because the levels of these Blood Tide monsters were quite low, mostly around level fifteen or sixteen."
"Don't forget, the system prompt mentioned that the following Blood Tide monsters will get stronger and stronger!"
"So, we can't let our guard down!"
Han Xing valued this Blood Tide disaster more than anyone else.
For this reason, it wouldn't be excessive to exaggerate the intensity of defense.
He planned that after this battle ends, he would raise another batch of territorial buildings regardless of the cost.
Everyone felt a bit serious after hearing this.
Han Xing also knew that constantly pressuring them wasn't good, so he changed his tone, waved his hand, and said,
"Alright, in a moment, everyone help me decompose the corpses of these mutants, I need materials from them."
At this time, everyone looked towards the territory again.
The originally scenic Xingyu City now laid with thousands of scorched monster corpses scattered all over.
Some monster corpses had half of their bodies blown away, while others had a few massive fine iron arrows stuck in them.
It looked like a complete mess.
Everyone went down and began to clean up these monster corpses.
[Decomposition Successful, Obtained Cursed Blood *4, Obtained Monster Bird Eye *2...]
[Decomposition Successful, Obtained Cursed Blood *7, Obtained Polluted Heart *1...]
A long string of notifications appeared.
After busying for more than ten minutes, everyone finally cleaned up the thousands of monster corpses in the territory.
The materials found on these monsters were mixed and unclear in their uses.
However, what Han Xing needed was just the cursed blood from them.
After summing up, they collected a total of 14,512 drops of cursed blood in this wave.
Occasionally, there were still a few seriously injured but not yet dead monsters struggling to get up.
At this time, they would meet Han Xing and others' merciless finishing blows.
As Han Xing just shot an arrow and exploded a mutant bird's head, the system prompt appeared.
[Killed Mutant Bird (Two-Star Ordinary Creature), Gained Experience Value 4500...]
These mutants provided a lot of experience indeed.
But unfortunately, monsters killed by territorial buildings didn't give experience points, or else Han Xing would have leveled up one or two levels in one go!
And just then, Shen Yun said with a grim face, "Brother Xing, Cheng Jianyong, come over here, I have a situation!"
Everyone detected something was off in his tone.
Han Xing and Su Xiaoyang hurried over.
Shen Yun saw them and slowly exposed his arm.
On it, there was a thumb-sized blood hole, seemingly from a monster's tentacle attack.
Moreover, the skin around the wound was already blood red, and it seemed to be spreading across his body.
Han Xing frowned; he seemed to realize something and quickly asked, "Were you struck by those mutant monsters' attacks?"
Shen Yun nodded, "I wasn't paying attention while decomposing the corpse."
"I didn't expect that one of the elite monsters was still alive, and it bit me."
On the scene, everyone's expressions changed.
Because the system had previously alerted that creatures infected by the Blood Curse would undergo terrifying mutations!
Cheng Jianyong quickly asked, "Xiaoyunzi, how are you feeling?"
Shen Yun shook his head, "I feel alright, but on my status bar, there's a negative Blood Curse status, and in 174 minutes, it will mutate..."
"174 minutes..."
Hearing this number, Han Xing sighed with relief.
Thankfully, this Blood Curse wasn't so intense, granting nearly three hours of reaction time.
Of course, this might also be related to everyone's strength.
Generally, ordinary survivors who have just arrived in this world would mutate in less than a minute upon infection.
At this time, Shen Yun continued, "But the troubling part is, this state seems not removable by the Holy Profession's Purification Skill."
"Can't be removed?" Cheng Jianyong asked in confusion.
Shen Yun nodded, "I just tried. With my spiritual power, casting a purification technique on myself only extends the Blood Curse's outburst by around half an hour."
"And after reaching the 180-minute limit, casting purification again has no effect."
Everyone was stunned; even with Shen Yun's spiritual power, it couldn't be removed, highlighting its terror.
Also, Shen Yun was only scratched with a small wound.
If it was a large area of the body infected with Blood Curse, the curse layers would stack, drastically shortening the time to outburst!
However, they didn't know that a real Blood Curse is far more terrifying than now.
Even a professional like Shen Yun, who had completed the Second Transformation, if infected with the Blood Curse, would become one of those terrifying monsters in less than five minutes.
The Holy Profession's Purification Skill couldn't work at all, not even delay could be achieved!
Once cursed, death was inevitable.
All thanks to the Wild Ranger Spirit, who sacrificed itself to unleash the mightiest strike to snip the very core of the Blood Curse.
