“What’s going on ”
With such a commotion, Saru naturally cast his gaze in that direction first.
Gaz’s expression remained calm. If he couldn’t even manage that, he wouldn’t have been able to cause such significant damage in the previous battle.
Soon, Gaz issued an order.
“This definitely won’t be the only time! Bring out the Burrowing Worms to see what’s going on!”
As soon as his words fell, the surrounding Quilboar and Goblins began bustling about.
Saru, who was standing nearby, nodded repeatedly. In this regard, Gaz was much more professional than he was.
Low-level Undead that had previously gathered below the walls were now pouring in through the collapsed wall’s opening. It wasn’t possible to leave them unattended any longer.
However, by placing powerful Ogre warriors at the wall’s breach, these weak, short Undead wouldn’t be able to advance further.
More importantly, they needed to be on guard against the approaching Dore Army.
As the Black Iron Heavy Cannons on the remaining walls continued to fire valiantly, another section of the wall trembled and collapsed. The monsters that had been standing on it, along with several Black Iron Heavy Cannons, were buried in the rubble.
Even monsters with thick skin and tough flesh struggled to survive in such circumstances.
Saru’s eyebrows furrowed, and he soon descended from the wall, having prepared for the worst.
Two-headed Ogre Mega Fatty and Second Fatty led a group of Fireball Clan Ogre Mages to the first wall breach.
Second Fatty controlled the two-headed Ogre’s body while Mega Fatty and the Ogre Mages behind him recited incantations together, twisting the collapsed wall rubble with magic and stacking it into a short wall.
The makeshift wall built from the rubble was only about one or two meters high, but for the low-level forest creatures, it was already an insurmountable barrier.
After doing all this, Mega Fatty couldn’t help but look enviously at the nearby Undead.
Truthfully, he really wanted to throw a Fireball at them.
But there were more pressing matters to attend to, and besides, Second Fatty, who controlled their body, didn’t share his strange quirks.
As the Ogre Mages began preparing to rebuild the second collapsed wall, the adjacent wall started to shake slightly as well.
This worried the monsters standing on it and those nearby, fearing they would be buried by the collapsing wall debris.
However, after a while, the shaking of that section of the wall didn’t lead to a collapse like before but stopped shaking, seemingly back to normal.
Soon after, the ground outside the wall began to tremble irregularly.
Next, a huge, beetle-like monster suddenly emerged from the vibrating ground.
At a glance, it was about four or five meters tall, a true monster.
Its foul stench and the ghostly fire flickering in its eyes indicated it was also an Undead.
Clearly, the previous consecutive collapses of the wall were its doing.
Other than this giant beetle, countless Burrowing Worms appeared from the ground alongside it.
Ordinary Burrowing Worms were no match for this bizarre beetle, but if their numbers reached a certain level, that would be another story.
Even with an absolutely numerical disadvantage, this strange beetle didn’t seem to have suffered any significant injuries.
The armored shell covering its body was the most effective protection, making it difficult for ordinary attacks to inflict significant damage.
Upon discovering the creature, the monsters of the Soaring Dragon Legion hesitated for a moment before howling and rushing toward it.
But before they could get close, rows of spikes suddenly emerged from the once-soft ground or rubble-covered ground beneath them.
Small-bodied monsters were instantly impaled, while taller ones like Ogres and Bearmen screamed in pain, clutching their pierced feet.
Mega Fatty, noticing the strange giant beetle, saw his uninterested eyes suddenly sparkle with golden light.
“Fireball Clan!”
At Mega Fatty’s loud cry, one after another, shirtless Ogre with intricate inscriptions on their aprons and wielding finely crafted wands appeared.
On their round bellies, they had delicately painted circles, the totem of the Fireball Clan.
Second Fatty, who was controlling the two-headed Ogre’s body, looked helplessly at Mega Fatty and sighed a little.
But in the end, he reluctantly moved his feet and led the Fireball Clan Ogre Mages to the vicinity of the giant beetle.
“For the Fireball! RUA!!!”
Dozens of towering Ogre Mages bellowed such a slogan almost simultaneously.
Then, under Mega Fatty’s leadership, dozens of huge, terrifying Fireballs quickly condensed in the air.
In the scorching Dragon Bone Wasteland, even the speed of Fireball formation was faster than usual, and their size was larger as well.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! ”
With continuous whooshing sounds, dozens of massive Fireballs flew toward the colossal bizarre beetle almost at the same time.
Large in size and densely packed, the flurry of Fireballs created an effect akin to a Meteor Shower.
Faced with such a terrifying onslaught, the bizarre beetle’s first move was to try to burrow down and escape.
However, its burrowing speed was no match for the flying speed of the Fireballs, and it was soon pelted, one after another, by the giant Fireballs soaring in the sky.
Its enormous body had become the perfect target.
“Boom! Boom! ”
With relentless explosions, the area where the giant beetle was located turned into a sea of fire.
When the flames and smoke finally cleared, all that remained was a scorched beetle carcass amidst the wreckage.
“Fireball Clan!”
Almost simultaneously, nearly all of the Ogre Mages roared the same chant.
However, before they could celebrate for long, they felt the ground tremble again, this time so severely that their footing became unstable.
Within moments, accompanied by the continuous sounds of the groundbreaking, one after another, giant beetles were forced to emerge from the ground, chased by the Burrowing Worms.
There were many, and just based on size, these beetles didn’t seem much weaker than the one previously turned to charcoal.
At this, Second Fatty chuckled, “Looks like we’re in for some fun!”
Compared to him, Mega Fatty appeared much more innocent.
“Fireball Clan, fear nothing!”
At Mega Fatty’s fierce roar, the Ogre Mages immediately chanted loudly, and one by one, massive Fireballs formed in the sky once more.
