Chapter 357: Barrier has been breached!

Once the insect type beasts had perceived the sweet scent of nectar coming from the Mother Tree. They were forced into a hypnotic effect that attracted them to it.

In a matter of seconds, the beast tide had lost control over hundreds of insect-type beasts, including king ranks as they swarmed to the 50-meter Mother Tree.

Once they were within range, the hundreds of leaves came to life as they shot at the insects in form of extremely thorny vines that captured and instantly killed even king rank insects.

The thorns of the vines didn’t only drain the blood of the captured insects at an alarming rate, but they also injected them with poisons that paralyze them and acid that melted them from the insides.

Once the targets were dead from the inside it took only a second for them to be absorbed by the Mother tree.

The absorbed nutrients from the insects would be sent to hanging aerial roots, causing them to grow downwards. Once they came in contact with the ground, a new tree trunk would sprout, increasing the Mother Tree’s range of effect.

At this point, one could say that Oliver Nystrom was simply created to kill all types of beasts, both land and aerial animals. He had single-handedly secured the center part of the wall’s barrier, and not that there was only one of him, the humans wouldn’t be such a tough spot.

.....

[That affects significantly affects the analysis, and should be enough if nothing new happens.] The system said. The appearance of the Mother tree had released a lot of pressure from one of the 3 hotspots, meaning the forces positioned in those areas could help out at the other areas of the wall’s barrier.

On realizing how much of a threat the short and annoying the human could be, the beasts were ordered to avoid the Mother Tree and focus on other parts of the wall.

With the reduced pressure on the humans, it was clear as day that the insects wouldn’t be enough to break through the wall’s barrier. So the beasts had decided to bring out the heavy hitters.

With the human army, haven retreated behind the wall’s barrier, and the insects swarmed every inch of the burning purple barrier. Only those operating the mana cannons and mortars could see through the curtain of insects thanks to the wall.

They could see heavy beasts like octopus-elephants, bisons, and sabertooth-moose charging towards the city wall, and in their midst were a lot of king-rank beasts.

It was clear that this new batch of beasts would be serious trouble if they were to get to the wall’s barrier, but there wasn’t much they could do about it.

The beast tide’s connection had made the beasts smart enough to deal with the mortars. They would send out the weak beasts to be killed by the mortar, while the strong beasts were sent out during the cooling interval.

This left the magic cannons and human army to deal with those that came through, but they couldn’t do much because their hands were already full.

The best the cannons could do was attack everything behind and below the insects on the wall’s barrier, but that was nowhere enough.

Without much resistance, the heavy beasts had gotten to the wall’s barrier, and even though insects were on the barrier they didn’t slow down.

They rammed into the barrier, and the humans didn’t waste time opening fire on them, but they didn’t stop.

They made sure that dealt damage to the barrier before dropping, and just like the killer earthworms, the king rank beasts had been buffed by the beast tide.

‘Can you see what is going on below?’ Blake asked the system.

Although the vibrations they felt were not close to that of the Hippodon or killer earthworms. For them to be able to feel a vibration 100 meters above the ground, meaning it was quite serious.

[It is too far from my area of detection, and since you can’t see anything, I can’t.] The system said.

CRASH! CRASH!

Just as the system was done talking. Multiple sounds of breaking glass resounded all over the wall and immediately came the wall’s announcement.

“The barrier has been breached, prepare yourselves!”

...

At the western gate, the city barrier had been breached by the tier 2 emperor rank Arachne and the army of beasts were already pouring through the 5 large 20-meter holes in the city barrier.

One could say that the wave of beasts wasn’t as bad as that of the southern or eastern walls, but they had to consider that the forces sent to the western wall were proportional to the army of beasts they were going up against.

Best

Although it wouldn’t be as hard as that of the southern wall, it was not going to be an easy fight.

Luckily for the western wall, their composition comprised more quality due to the presence of the magic school’s professors who were all above the Nascent level of the Demigod realm.

“So far everything is going quite well. So I have to make sure it remains the same by stopping it from getting into the fight.” Principal Lovren referred to the female Arachne that had begun making its way toward the city barrier.

“Where do you think you are going?” Lovren said as he appeared some distance in front of the emperor rank beast.

“I thought you had the intention of staying in there forever. So I wanted to come to you, but I am glad you came out to see me.” The female Arachne said in a seductive voice.

“Sorry but I am not into bugs.” Principal Lovren said with a stoic expression, not caring about the Arachne that had lost its temper for calling it a bug.
