Abyss Summoner

Chapter 376 - 366: The Tide of Battle Turns

Zhou Hongwei’s strength seemed drained away, his legs became somewhat weak, and he unconsciously took a few steps back.

"Woo...woo..."

The aura outside was too fierce, so much so that the survivors in the city felt its desolate oppression, and some children couldn’t control their fear and started crying loudly.

Everyone expressed panic about the impending events, the Golden Jackal-wolfmen leading the beast tide had completely blocked the city’s escape routes, even if they scattered and fled at this moment, there would only be one outcome: a dead end.

Without the city as a barrier, humans stood no chance.

Zhou Hongwei stopped his backward steps, suddenly remembering why he had originally chosen to stay.

"The world is destroyed, this is our last home."

This was something his brother often said.

They were fortunate to gain powers that ordinary people didn’t have, but also unfortunate, compared to the peaceful era where even guns were restricted, in this new era, perhaps just wandering a circle outside the city, they might be swallowed by enemies lurking in the shadows.

Zhou Hongwei didn’t know what was happening outside.

Did anyone survive?

How many?

These are two interrogative sentences.

After his brother died, he was enveloped in fear and sadness, even sending out some teams to seek aid from around.

But after some time, not to mention rescuers, even those previous teams disappeared without a trace.

After despair, came clarity.

Zhou Hongwei remembered his brother’s words, that the world was destroyed, and perhaps this was the last remaining city of humanity, if even this place was destroyed, then home...might really become a thing of the past.

Even if the city’s destruction was inevitable.

But before the city walls were breached, he had to do something.

Zhou Hongwei took a step forward again, his expression was never as resolute as now, his brother was already dead, the city was on the brink of destruction, although most had given up fighting due to fear, sitting paralyzed or fleeing into the city, these were no longer important.

What mattered was that he would protect their last home for his brother.

"Come on!"

Zhou Hongwei roared, opened his arms, and two forces converged, in a short period, two gigantic Elemental Balls appeared above his head, he had exhausted his final strength, even if death was unavoidable, he would give the enemy before him a deadly blow at the last moment of his life.

This is.

The last resistance belonging to humanity!

"Bang!"

However, just as Zhou Hongwei gathered his power to its peak, the beast tide suddenly exploded, some charging beasts didn’t even know what happened as their bodies were blasted into the air, and countless blood poured onto the ground.

"What happened?"

Zhou Hongwei stared wide-eyed at everything before him, the energy bomb in his hand was clearly not yet fired, so how did this change occur in the beast group?

"Pata..."

"Pata..."

Some orderly footsteps approached from a distance, warriors clad in Insect Armor, holding sharp long knives and powerful guns, appeared in front of the beasts and Zhou Hongwei.

Although somewhat incredulous, looking at the suddenly arrived reinforcement, Zhou Hongwei still trembled with his lips, murmuring to himself: "Reinforcements? There really are...reinforcements?"

................

The flames of war reignited.

Just now, both humans and beasts were attracted by the war before them, completely unaware that on the other side, a team had quietly appeared in front of them.

What’s going on?

Not only humans, even beasts were somewhat astonished because of the earlier explosion, the charge was somewhat impeded, the momentum that was hard-earned quickly returned to normal.

"Fire!"

The reinforcements from Order didn’t come here just to watch a war, they had more critical matters to attend to, like becoming a side in the battle.

Six Demon and Martial Cannons fired simultaneously, shells tracing arcs fell into the center of the beast tide, the cannon fire continued, because of their mutation, these beasts were far more ferocious than before, but facing the terrifying Demon and Martial Cannons, no matter how fearsome, the outcome was only one: to become minced meat, and serve as fertilizer for this land.

After three rounds of bombardment, the formed offensives collapsed, the air was filled with wretched cries, a mutated giant lion’s body was blown in half, at this moment, it had no savagery left and crawled on the ground with its half-body, leaving a trail of blood behind.

A group of ugly Devils flew above the beasts, holding newly developed High-Explosive Grenades, containing insect venom besides gunpowder.

—Throw!

The air unit revealed its value at this moment.

They needed to prove their worth to Chen Feng, so the Devils tried harder, specifically targeting concentrated areas to throw grenades, aiming to kill more enemies.

Swoosh!

An arrow shot out.

The beast’s body stiffened for a moment, then fell limply to the ground.

The sharp arrow pierced directly through its forehead, instantly penetrating its skull. Accompanied by the sound of a thud, the second arrow shot out, striking the head of the mutant beast beside it, killing it outright.

On the chaotic battlefield, even guns mostly relied on luck to kill the enemy, but now, an arrow was able to hit the vital spot.

Who else but the Dark Elves possessed such ability?

Terrifying strength!

The Dark Elf weaved through the battlefield with incredible speed, followed by more figures behind her.

The Dark Department.

This personal guard belonged to Chen Feng, following the Dark Elf and launching a frenzied slaughter against the beast tide. Their opponents were often evolved beasts, including some Silver Tier strong ones, but under the siege led by the Dark Elf and Lu Wei’s Dark Department, they couldn’t even muster a decent defense before falling to the ground.

"Hoo..."

With a dull roar, a massive figure rushed out from the darkness.

It resembled a fish, but with sturdy tentacles on its body, reaching a height of over ten meters, giving it a sky-covering appearance. Its attacks weren’t particularly fancy, but simply by swinging and thrashing, it threw the beast tide into chaos.

These reinforcements were like a flame, reigniting the hope of the city that had nearly been extinguished.

Following closely were the warriors, accompanied by two Silver Peak strongmen leading the charge. Their pressure lessened significantly, needing only to shoot down the panicked beasts. So far, they had not faced any real life-threatening danger.

The battlefield was suddenly reversed.

The beast legion, which had just been rampant, now had its formation completely broken, suffering brutal slaughter without even a semblance of organization.

Everything seemed to be taking a turn for the better.

..........................

Not far away.

Chen Feng gazed into the distance.

His attention was not on the ordinary battle, but rather drawn to the figure atop the giant elephant.

Golden Tier!

As he’d guessed, the other party was a Golden Tier Jackal-wolfman.

On it, Chen Feng even felt a familiar aura.

Chaos.

This was the aura of the Abyss.

Evidently, it was a Jackal-wolfman from the Abyss.

As a Jackal-wolfman from the Abyss, its backer might very well be the Demon Lord Yenogu, the king of all Jackal-wolfmen in the Abyss.

The savage and brutal Demon Lord Yenogu, Jackal-wolfman Lord, dominates the 422nd layer of the Bottomless Abyss, the Silent Dark Grassland, which he whimsically named "Yenogu’s Domain." Yet the name is quite fitting, as countless Jackal-wolfmen and human slaves living under its low-hung blood-red sun acknowledge: Yenogu is the undisputed ruler of any land visible from the towering overlooks of his mighty fortress.

This structure, the size of a human city, rests on enormous rock rollers, allowing it to roam the entire layer, pulled by thousands of slaves plundered from the Material Plane.

Yenogu’s greatest dream is to see his kind - the Jackal-wolfmen - flourish.

He envisions a Material Plane under the control of his people, where elves, humans, dwarves, and halflings serve merely as slaves and sustenance for Jackal-wolfmen.

However, he knows achieving this dream through Jackal-wolfmen in the Material Plane alone is impossible, so he strongly supports believers of other races who worship him.

The Lord of Jackal-wolfmen adeptly invests his faith across any dimension, following a simple two-step plan: Destruction and Reconstruction.

When Jackal-wolfmen are unleashed into a new world, they undergo a brief hibernation, conducting detailed surveys of their surroundings. Once they gauge the strength of the powers there, if strong, they’ll wait; if weak, they’ll ruthlessly reveal their claws, seize control, and enslave its inhabitants to serve them.

In invasion, Jackal-wolfmen display horrifying wisdom and experience.

Evidently, this Jackal-wolfman had set its sights on the city ahead, but coincidentally, so had Chen Feng.

Moreover, Chen Feng’s objectives weren’t limited to just the city before him.

In addition to that...

The Golden Tier powerhouse.

No other sacrificial offering could be more fitting.

By killing it, he could summon the perfect ally, so... please die for me.

Chen Feng was not fighting alone.

When annihilating the Annihilation Insect Emperor, not only did Chen Feng gain power, transforming into a true Demon, but among his numerous Summoned Beasts, the Undead Mage also received ample energy, breaking through bodily limits and ascending to the Golden Tier!

"In my name!"

Suddenly, a narrow crack split open in the surroundings, a phantom figure appearing behind it, answering the call, attempting to penetrate the dimension and descend onto this land.

But its power was too immense, encountering some barrier on its first attempt to break through dimensions after ascending.

Chen Feng, expressionless, placed his right hand on the fissure before him, in an instant breaking it apart into a small opening.

The energy within began to surge, seeming like countless Resentful Spirits were roaring.

Chen Feng gazed through space, pointing his fist forward, and slowly said: "Summon!"

—"Undead Mage!"
