Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 233 - 175 Locust Attack, Dragon King Acts_1

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Chen Dalong, wielding twin swords, rapidly slaughtered one mutated insect after another that had climbed up the city wall.

After he finished off a group of mutated insects on this section of the wall, he immediately scanned the rest of the teams on the defense line for their situation.

The other teams, while firing downwards, were also doing their best to fend off the attacks of these climbing mutated insects.

This sight brought some relief to Chen Dalong; after a night of fighting, these rookies had finally toughened up, making substantial progress in their combat skills.

Moreover, with specially made electric shock shields and shotguns capable of area attacks, they were no longer collapsing in disarray when mutated insects managed to climb up, as they had before.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that the number of climbing mutated insects wasn’t very high.

Chen Dalong glanced in the direction of the Mutated Black Crow and immediately headed to another area.

He couldn’t communicate with the black crow, so he had to follow its rhythm and coordinate as best as he could.

Regardless, judging by the current state of affairs, even if the casualties of this round might be somewhat higher than before, holding the line shouldn’t be an issue.

With these thoughts, his pace did not slow down in the slightest, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived at another team’s defense position.

The ring-headed knives in his hands slashed rapidly, swiftly killing one mutated insect after another.

But suddenly, a powerful sense of alarm erupted within Chen Dalong, as if something terrifying was approaching.

However, this feeling vanished in a flash, leaving him somewhat puzzled and uncertain.

He scanned the surrounding soldiers subconsciously, noticing that they seemed oblivious, which made Chen Dalong wonder if his senses had deceived him.

But just then, a sharp cry of an eagle rang out.

A mutated eagle with a wingspan of 50 meters flew low over the city wall.

Many soldiers looked up, their eyes filled with a mix of fear and amazement.

The mutated eagle was no more than 10 meters away from them, and with such a gigantic size, it truly felt like it was blotting out the sky.

What was even more shocking was that as the mutated eagle flew by, the mutated insects that had been furiously swarming up the wall suddenly cowered and halted their advance.

At this moment, Chen Dalong realized where that fleeting terror in his heart had come from.

It was purely the oppressive aura released by the mutated eagle.

To be precise, the mutated eagle had released its pressure towards the outside of the city wall, not towards him.

Chen Dalong’s perception was much sharper than that of a normal person, which is why he felt that intense danger.

As for now, he looked at the hesitating mutated insects outside the wall and shouted excitedly, "Quick, hit them hard!"

The soldiers on the battlefield responded rapidly, seizing such an excellent opportunity; they fired madly downwards while throwing grenades.

Of course, this situation couldn’t last too long. After exerting its pressure, the mutated eagle left, and the time it had been able to intimidate the insects was very limited.

Moreover, these mutated insects were in a state of hunger, with "food" right in front of them. Under these circumstances, they quickly overcame their innate fear of superior beings and launched another attack.

Nevertheless, this had bought the soldiers on the walls at least a dozen seconds. That was enough time for them to temporarily clear out this batch of mutated beings approaching the wall, stabilizing what had been a faltering defense line considerably.

If it weren’t for the fact that a group of mutated beings had already climbed up the walls, requiring them to spare some forces for defense, they could have secured even greater victory just now.

Now everyone felt even more confident about surviving this crisis.

They also glanced up at the sky now and then, hoping that the mutated eagle would come back and unleash another wave of pressure.

Over a minute later, they didn’t get the mutated eagle, but they did get a spotted huge tiger over ten meters in length and nearly as tall as the wall itself.

Confronted with this colossal creature and the savage might emanating from it, which seemed to be picking its prey, everyone felt a contradictory sensation of fear and reassurance.

However, this time, the people were somewhat prepared, so they didn’t freeze. Following the mutated Siberian tiger’s departure, they seized every second to unleash their firepower.

Upon witnessing this, Chen Dalong decisively changed tactics.

He quickly gathered the scattered members of the relief team, who served as machine gunners, and promptly directed the cleansing of the mutated insects on the wall.

Before, he had placed them among other combat teams to ensure that these teams could maintain continuous firepower in the face of attacks from mutated insects.

Because the relief team members, who were Evolutionists, could manage to fire heavy machine guns with one hand while wielding large machetes with the other, killing off the mutated insects that reached their front.

Now, with the entrance of the Dragon Hall’s Third Order Mutated Creature exerting its intimidation, the pressure was instantly alleviated. The combat teams alone could hold their ground.

As Chen Dalong changed his tactics and gathered the Evolutionists, the speed at which they exterminated the mutated insects on the wall increased significantly.
