Liu Chengfeng led the three of them all the way back to the East City Wall.
The situation on the East City Wall was noticeably better than on the South City Wall; although there were piles of Magic Beast corpses, their number was not large.
The east side of Obsidian Town was already the direction most frequently disturbed by Magic Beasts, so the defensive strength originally deployed here was stronger than the other three locations.
Below the city wall, there were even trenches and traps prepared year-round, which served as an excellent buffer against the Shock of the Magic Beast army.
Not only that, but nearly half of the Awakeneds in Obsidian Town, as well as the main forces and leaders of various major powers, were basically concentrated here.
Coupled with dozens of magic cannons on the city wall, they effectively sniped at the Magic Beast army.
Confronting these more than ten thousand Awakeneds were nearly twenty thousand Magic Beasts, including three powerful Black Iron Nine-Star Magic Beasts.
It could be said that from the very beginning, the East City Wall was the main battlefield in this beast tide.
At this moment, after Liu Chengfeng led the three back to the city wall, Dongcheng Xiuwu took the other two and departed directly.
They had already seen two Eight-Star Magic Beasts climb onto the city wall, precisely in the section defended by Shizi Jie, so they had to rush back as quickly as possible.
Alek and the Naga leader were still entangled with the Nine-Star Magic Beasts below the city, and Cross Street was leaderless, so the two Eight-Star Magic Beasts could cause considerable trouble.
It wasn't that Alek was seeing red; it was just that he had to go all out when fighting the Nine-Star Magic Beast, and his large-scale destructive abilities couldn't be precisely controlled, making it easy to accidentally injure his own people.
Therefore, the battles between the leaders of various races and the Nine-Star Magic Beasts all took place below the city wall.
That way, even if they unleashed their full power, the residual energy would only affect the Magic Beasts.
Liu Chengfeng saw Dongcheng Xiuwu and the other two rushing back to defend and said nothing.
He had also seen those two Eight-Star Magic Beasts; with Shizi Jie's original defensive strength plus Dongcheng Xiuwu's reinforcement, he didn't need to worry.
Compared to this, he was more eager to find a monitor.
From the Unyielding Hall, upon seeing Liu Chengfeng return to the city wall, Hong Ziyu hurried over with an elder.
He wielded a green-grade red-tasseled spear and ran towards Liu Chengfeng, the spear body like a swimming dragon, thrusting out spear flowers, and in a flash, it pierced through several Magic Beasts behind Liu Chengfeng.
Hong Ziyu shook his hand, and the Magic Beast's blood was flung onto the ground along the red tassel at the spearhead.
"Boss, I brought Elder Sun over to heal you."
Hong Ziyu stood guard around them, and the elder behind him stepped forward, conjuring healing water balls with both hands; as the water balls washed away the bloodstains on Liu Chengfeng's body surface, they also rapidly exerted their healing effect.
"Troubling you again, Elder Sun," Liu Chengfeng said with a slight smile to the elder in front of him.
This elder was the strongest healer in the Unyielding Hall.
He had reached the Black Iron Seven Stars strength long ago, simply because he was one of the first people to follow Liu Chengfeng.
In a team, the higher the level of a healing-type Awakened, the more frequently the team members are injured, and the more dangerous their daily battles are.
After all, the source of energy for Awakeneds with healing abilities often comes from their injured teammates.
The more severely injured and near-death a teammate is, the more energy the healer gains after saving them, and the faster they break through.
"Chengfeng, if you really want to save me trouble, change your fighting style."
"Always fighting like this, you're likely to die."
Elder Sun shook his head; he had almost watched Liu Chengfeng fight this way all along.
The most severe time, surviving then was almost a miracle.
Elder Sun still remembered that it was over a year ago when Liu Chengfeng established prestige for humanity in Obsidian Town by killing ninety-seven different races.
By the end of that battle, Liu Chengfeng's ribs were almost all fractured, and bowl-sized penetrating wounds covered his entire body.
Compared to the shocking injuries at that time, this injury was actually considered good.
"By the way, Boss, you didn't find the brain bug at Cross Street, did you?"
When Hong Ziyu saw Liu Chengfeng bring back Dongcheng Xiuwu and the other two, he already had a guess in his heart.
After all, with Liu Chengfeng's personality, if Cross Street had truly found the brain bug, he would probably be directly holding his blade and killing his way out again, instead of getting treated here.
"Yes, we were played by Cross Street. The strength of their small team was simply not enough to search for the brain bug in the beast tide, and they might not even have sent a monitor."
"Heh, what a clever scheme. Now, not only is there no evidence, but the biggest problem is that we've been fighting for a long time and still don't know where the brain bug is."
Liu Chengfeng frowned; if the brain bug didn't die, this war would inevitably continue until one side was completely wiped out.
"If you ask me, Boss, you should have just killed that devil, Dongcheng Xiuwu, just now, to prevent him from always screwing us over at critical moments."
Seeing Liu Chengfeng about to speak, Hong Ziyu quickly added.
"At a time like this, humanity should unite against external threats. I know, I know, Boss, I've heard that so many times my ears have calluses."
Liu Chengfeng's tolerance for his own kind was far greater than for other races; many people in Obsidian Town knew this.
"No."
"Ziyu, what you and Elder Zhou said, I have always considered."
"When I first arrived in Obsidian Town, no matter which country they were from, everyone here had only one identity: human."
"Under the oppression of various races, people at that time helped each other and banded together for warmth, barely managing to secure a place for humanity in Obsidian Town."
"Unexpectedly, once humanity stood up a little, everything changed."
"To repel external threats, one must first stabilize internally. Elder Zhou has always advised me, and he is right."
"Every minute Dongcheng Xiuwu wastes is exchanged for the lives of others. After this war, I will kill him!"
"For now, let him kill a few more Magic Beasts."
"Let's go, let's solve the brain bug problem first."
Liu Chengfeng finished his treatment, put away his Tang Hengdao, and walked into the crowd, leaving Hong Ziyu and Elder Sun looking at each other.
Ten minutes later, Liu Chengfeng found a monitor, then called Hong Ziyu, and the three of them once again plunged into the beast tide.
Hong Ziyu and Liu Chengfeng were responsible for clearing the way, and the monitor was responsible for finding the brain bug.
The Magic Beast corpses below the East City Wall had already piled up into small mountains, and as the battle time extended, the casualties of Awakeneds from various races continued to rise.
They had to find the brain bug as quickly as possible and end this war.
Liu Chengfeng and Hong Ziyu, one Nine Star and one Eight Star, with the other two Nine-Star Magic Beasts being restrained, were almost unmatched in the beast tide as long as they weren't surrounded.
However, as the two of them almost fought their way through the Magic Beast tide seven times in and out, their expressions grew increasingly grim.
Because the monitor had not sensed the presence of the brain bug.
"Still haven't found it?"
Hong Ziyu flicked a Magic Beast away, his tone a little anxious.
"No, I can't sense the brain bug anywhere!"
The monitor was also sweating profusely at this moment; he had clearly used his ability with all his might, even disregarding the consumption of his mental energy.
But in his eyes, he found no living creature being parasitized.
