The Black Ring Giant Snake heard its companion's words and showed a look of skepticism in its eyes.
It felt that the person standing on the city wall didn't seem particularly special.
If it spewed its toxic fog over there, given enough time, not just that person, but everyone in the city would die.
However, with those guys behind it attacking together, breaching this city shouldn't be a problem.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you. I'll go down and see what those guys are up to. Why is it that until now, there hasn't been a single sign of movement?"
"Mm, be careful." The icy blue giant snake exhorted.
Its intuition told it that something was likely happening underground.
After all, this kind of situation had never occurred before.
"Got it."
The Black Ring Giant Snake replied impatiently, then dove straight into the ground.
Before the world changed, most snake species weren't proficient at burrowing. They were usually able to live underground by occupying natural caves or tunnels dug out by smaller animals, making minor modifications to turn them into shelters.
After the world's transformation, many snake-type Fierce Beasts greatly enhanced their size, strength, and speed. Even without claws, they could forcefully create passageways underground using their bodies.
However, their speed was not as fast as those beasts specializing in burrowing.
The Black Ring Giant Snake was different from other serpent-type beasts. It spewed purple fog from its mouth and nose, causing the surrounding soil to dissolve rapidly and revealing a bottomless hole.
It dived in, like a fish entering the sea, disappearing instantaneously.
The icy blue giant snake watched with envy in its eyes.
Even its speed underground was less than a third of the other's.
But its talent lay elsewhere.
The toxic fog, for which the other was so proud, was nothing in its presence. It was, after all, a kind of liquid, and a simple breath from it would turn it into harmless ice crystals.
In the next moment, it turned its gaze toward the city walls, eyes full of anticipation.
At the city wall.
People finally felt at ease, and some had even started laughing and chatting.
But Hua Jun and the others dared not let their guard down.
Their instincts told them that this Beast Tide could not be weathered so easily.
At least, a Commander-level Fierce Beast had yet to show itself.
And those burrowing beasts.
When the Beast Tide wasn't attacking, burrowing beasts would appear frequently.
At this moment, how could there be none?
According to survivors from other cities, their cities fell so quickly because a large number of burrowing beasts emerged within the city. Some cities even faced attacks from flying beasts, which not only swooped down to attack people but also airdropped beasts!
At this moment, the ground started to vibrate once more.
Dozens of massive beasts, each as tall as a six-story building, charged forward.
Despite their enormous size, several times that of Elite-level Fierce Beasts, their speed was much faster!
"Commander-level Fierce Beasts! They are Commander-level Fierce Beasts!" someone screamed.
Instantly, the smiles on everyone's faces froze.
Because it wasn't just one Commander-level Fierce Beast, but dozens of them! They were as tall as the city walls, and one could easily imagine that if they reached the wall, just one strike might create a breach.
So many Commander-level Fierce Beasts attacking together could bring down the entire wall.
Hua Jun's heart sank.
The situation he feared most had come to pass.
Dozens of Commander-level Fierce Beasts charging together—would the chairman be able to stop them?
Qin Jin and the others beside him also turned pale.
"Captain," a man in the team said quietly, "If so many Commander-level Fierce Beasts are charging together, there is probably a Beast King behind this, commanding them."
Qin Jin nodded.
Among the rushing figures, several were top-level beast leaders.
In other smaller cities, such high-level beasts would stay in the backlines to command the beasts.
But here, they were just acting as vanguards. The beast commanding from the rear had to be of a higher level—likely a Beast King.
"Captain," the green-haired woman said worriedly, "with so many Commander-level Fierce Beasts charging, can Chairman Li's Sword Qi Domain hold them off?"
"Yes, Captain. If those beasts reach the city walls, Anshan City will be doomed."
"Don't panic."
Qin Jin said calmly:
"Chairman Li must have anticipated this. He must have made some arrangements. If any Commander-level Fierce Beats break through the Sword Qi Field, we can't just stand by. We must act immediately to eliminate them."
"Yes, Captain."
Upon hearing his words, everyone nodded.
They exchanged glances, and a few wry smiles appeared on their faces.
If a Commander-level Fierce Beast did break through, they could only hope there weren't too many. Otherwise, even they wouldn't be able to stop it.
After all, they were only B-level Awakeners, not A-level.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of Commander-level Fierce Beasts reached the Sword Qi Field.
With thunderous roars, they raised their claws, striking hard against the Sword Qi.
