Everyone, even the Elites, wanted to run to the walls and forcefully enter there instead. However, it was easier said than done simply because they were completely surrounded.
Even if they pushed other people to the mouths of monsters, chances were: There’d be a few more waiting for them up front. Then, even if they neared the walls, Alterran archers would shoot them down!
"AH!" Temp yelled when his leg was scratched. Even if the monsters around him were less than level 15 for the most part, monster physiques and strength were far superior to humans and their attacks could still damage them if they weren’t prepared enough.
He could only focus on defending himself, not caring for the war anymore. He was, however, slowly stepping back, pulling in a fellowman if he managed to get them.
Like this, he and a few of his team members slowly got closer to the wall, hoping to reach it before their energy was exhausted.
Even if entering at their level during a war had heavy penalties, it was better than staying outside like this!
However, after half an hour of pushing back, all allies next to him had either ran away or were used as meat shields, leaving him alone. In this time frame, he had already consumed a portion of his healing potions.
In other areas, the dozens of level 20s had the same problem, though they were lucky to be close to each other and could fight together.
They were clearing out the monsters at a good pace, which was not just good for them, but also for the Alterrans watching nearby.
Anyway, it was an all-out war between man and monster, with Alterrans watching securely on the battlements—kicking down the enemy ’vanguards’ back to the monsters in the process.
"AHH! NOO!" Another Resso Villager yelled as he was kicked down by an Alterran to join in the fight against monsters.
The man fell down and crawled back, barely avoiding a monster attack. He was lucky because a sentry targeted the monster, killing it, but there were too many beasts around.
In his panic, while avoiding one, he idiotically ended up heading to the mouth of another instead.
Standing on the battlement, the aborigines in the guard team looked in awe. To be honest, they had never seen so many enemies at once before so seeing the dark wave of volatile enemies did make them nervous.
Among them was Mauru and his team, who were watching with complicated expressions. Every guard had their own scopes now and they could clearly see what was happening.
They were so ready for a big fight, would the mobs take care of everything? Of course, the easier the fight the better, but they lived for war and the contribution points that it brought.
They also wanted to test things out!
A few of their younger members who had reached level 10 in the past few months actually activated the physical type of powers! One person got super strength while another got superspeed!
It was unbelievable!
As for how it was triggered, it was still up to study, but everyone was positive this wouldn’t have happened if they weren’t in Alterra!
After all, everyone had been living together for years, yet no one had awakened such skills at all!
They also wanted to add more contribution points, because that meant their lifestyles would improve even more!
"Well, the enemy is a lot. They might just take care of the mobs for us."
"Well, I can test out my super strength later on."
Their stances were a little relaxed but still tense enough to be able to react, should a battle suddenly get to them.
Unexpectedly, they saw something interesting amongst the attacking crowd.
"Hey, look!" Essan yelled as he looked over his scope.
