Chapter 333

Before long, the twenty-five Fire Crows in the sky began to fall like dumplings. Once struck by arrows, they plummeted with thuds—some onto the city walls, some onto the ground between the walls and the moat, and others into the open spaces within the city. Regardless of where they landed, the Martial Practitioners on the ground would immediately rush over to deliver the finishing blow, ensuring they were thoroughly dead. Of course, this was only the initial stage of the Beast Tide, and the number of officers and soldiers from the Bohai Legion and the Iron Stone Guards, as well as the independent Martial Practitioners participating, was relatively small. Gradually, as the Beast Tide intensified, more and more members of the Iron Stone Guards, the Bohai Legion, and the ordinary Martial Practitioners who resisted the tide joined the fray. Naturally, apart from the independent Martial Practitioners, all personnel from the Bohai Legion and the Iron Stone Guards held back somewhat. If the number of Demonic Beasts was not overwhelming, they prioritized allowing the independent Martial Practitioners to hunt them. If the number of beasts grew too large for the independent Martial Practitioners to handle alone, the Bohai Legion and the Iron Stone Guards would then intervene.
