Beside the Black-Hearted Queen, there was now another unconscious top-tier life form.

After the three huge flame dragons flew past, the monsters at the breach were cleared again. Only dozens of high-level level-eight monsters were still alive. However, they were entangled by hundreds of those bizarre plants. Although they fought desperately, tearing many plants apart, they still couldn't gain the upper hand. Their numbers were rapidly decreasing.

While clearing the monsters, Zhao Xiangxue's greatest hope was that these Life-Grasping Grasses could play a role, persisting for half a minute so that each of them would possess top-tier abilities. In that case, under such circumstances, they could cause massive casualties to the monsters, achieving effects better, even much better, than her and Talking Lady's consecutive large-scale attacks.

But after one batch of monsters died, another batch came. Soon, a large number of these detestable monsters spread over again. No matter how strong those plants were, without surviving for half a minute, they were just level-eight mutated plants. With the green-skinned monsters prepared, they held on for a moment before all being torn apart.

During this short time, Xia Lei took many things out of her spatial equipment. First, over a hundred ferocious-looking stone statues of unknown monsters, each two meters tall and pitch black.

Then, over fifty top-tier Violent Thunder Towers, several arranged together like huge walls, protecting Xia Lei and the others within.

Finally, there was a box of black spheres the size of human heads. After releasing them, Xia Lei directly activated them. These black spheres immediately flew out, arranging irregularly in the space, becoming Xia Lei's last line of defense.

In Xia Lei's spatial equipment, these were the only things that could currently be of use. The Black-Hearted Queen regretted for the first time that if she had been more domineering and carried Cloud Peak's entire warehouse with her, she might have found many more usable items.

But she only thought about it because it was impossible. In the mountain villa, even though she was currently the only person in charge, if she wanted to distribute everything arbitrarily, that was also impossible. If that were the case, everything would be chaotic, and Cloud Peak wouldn't last long. The only one who could do that was Ye Zhongming alone.

Over a hundred stone statues came to life, turning into over a hundred life forms that could fly and held long spears. They charged into the monster horde. Their bodies were actually harder than the green-skinned monsters', and the spears in their hands were extremely sharp. When fighting the monsters, they were constantly killing.

The Violent Thunder Towers began rumbling simultaneously. Huge, winding lightning bolts struck into the green-skinned monster horde, causing massive casualties.

These things had actually been phased out by Cloud Peak; various types of magic crystal cannons had replaced their position. These were just leftovers manufactured and replaced. Xia Lei kept them in her spatial equipment, intending to use them someday when needed, but she didn't expect to actually use them today.

At the same time, Xia Lei also took out a heavy mechanical machine gun, a type of magic crystal weapon that used micro-engraved bullets with an extremely fast firing rate. Originally installed on some heavy-duty trucks, Xia Lei kept one for herself. Now it was fully loaded with over three thousand bullets. Holding the machine gun, she began firing frantically.

Xia Lei knew she had to do everything she could. If they still couldn't escape after this, then it was fate.

The gun muzzle spewed colorful streams of light, like a kind of defiance.

The ferocious stone statues were very powerful, each at least at level-seven strength, and with the great advantage of being able to fly. However, the monsters were too many. If a statue wasn't careful and was pulled into the enemy horde by jumping monsters, it wouldn't last two seconds before being killed.

From their appearance to their total annihilation, they only persisted for less than a minute.

During this minute, the Thunderstorm Towers could be said to have poured their firepower out to their heart's content because they didn't need to aim at all. These defensive installations, which could already fire automatically, became silent after exhausting their loaded demon crystal energy. They caused massive casualties but couldn't avoid becoming useless towers in the end.

Finally, the green-skinned monsters charged, crashing into those black spheres. This equipment immediately exploded, turning into corrosive liquid that sprayed forward. Any monster touched by it was corroded down to the bone, and this corrosiveness continued its effect through the liquid formed by the targets, although the power decreased, it persisted for quite a while.

By the time the toxicity could no longer cause damage, who knows how many monsters had died.

A click-clack sound came from the machine gun barrel. Xia Lei had fired all three thousand bullets. She was satisfied with the results. The micro-engraved bullets of various attributes could take several monster lives with each shot. After firing three thousand bullets, at least fifteen thousand monsters were killed.

Adding the results from the stone statues, Violent Thunder Towers, and corrosive black spheres, she estimated she had killed about fifty thousand monsters.

In just a few minutes, Talking Lady, Zhao Xiangxue, Xia Lei, and the others had killed over one-fifth of the million monsters. One could imagine how terrifying they would be if they were in perfect condition.

Big Yellow and the twin sisters fought while retreating, having reached the vicinity. They had to do this because Xia Lei's team was basically wiped out. The few people left could only group together defensively, waiting to be killed.

This was the first time in Cloud Peak's history that a main combat team was annihilated as a unit, and it was Xia Lei's team at that!

That Yellow Ball and the twins came closer was naturally Xia Lei's order. She felt that even if they were to die, it was better to die together.

Yellow Ball was in a terrible state. That set of top-tier beast equipment on its body was basically ruined. Its golden fur was gone, used up as an ability. Horrifying wounds could be seen everywhere. If it weren't for its self-recovery ability, Yellow Ball would have given up long ago.

It had withstood attacks from two intact green-skinned monsters, with occasional disturbances from other monsters.

Yellow Ball's opponents naturally weren't faring well either. One basically lost its combat ability; both its hands and one leg were bitten off by Yellow Ball, making it impossible to even stand. It could only crawl on the ground. Even so, it came over, ready to bite with its mouth at any time.

The twin sisters' side was also not doing well. The knight transformed from the Doll was gone. Yatian was injured and unconscious, only being carried by the Golden Corpse.

Xia Lei took out her twin knives, feeling the despair of being at the end of the road.

She didn't understand why, after so long, Cloud Peak still hadn't come to aid? Guangyao would definitely have made the most correct command. Was it because of this space isolating them from the world?

She couldn't seek the answer for now. All she could do was swing her knives.

In front of her was a sea of monsters numbering over four hundred thousand.

Xia Lei sighed. She still had one trump card left. Originally, she thought it was her greatest reliance—a resurrection card! A product of a level-nine wheel!

But at this moment, it held no meaning at all. It would only get her killed again. In the game, it was no different from waiting for death with a golden body.

Today... were they going to die?

"Old Dragon only slept for a while; what's the situation now?" Yangos's annoying voice suddenly sounded behind Xia Lei.
