"Here they come!" Divine Silence Dust Fate looked up.
In the distance, countless long tongues of fire suddenly appeared above the majestic city of the Otherworldly Race, roaring through the air like writhing serpents of flame.
"Spread out, everyone!" Elena commanded just in time.
However, timely orders did not guarantee that the soldiers could respond in the next moment; after all, it took time to react. The waves of fire unleashed by the Otherworldly Race arrived in the blink of an eye, turning the entire sky a fiery red.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The long tongues of fire descended, causing explosive effects among the densely packed crowd. Accompanied by intense rumbling sounds, countless wails echoed continuously.
In an instant, many soldiers were injured or killed!
Clearly, this was a massive scheme by the Otherworldly Race, aimed at forcing the System NPC Army to adopt a defensive formation and then unexpectedly launching a remote Fire Magic attack to inflict widespread damage, turning their passive situation into an active one in an instant.
The key was that it could disrupt the rhythm of the System NPC Army!
With tens of thousands gathered, any chaos would undoubtedly lead to disaster. Right now, such a heart-wrenching catastrophe was unfolding!
"Maintain formation!"
Elena kept repeating her command, but with so many people, it was impossible to achieve in a short time. Above their heads, another wave of fire dragons appeared over the enemy's city. They howled as they transformed into devouring flames, wreaking havoc on the soldiers once again.
"Look, we're just asking for death this time!" Rebellious Blood Blade couldn't help but feel helpless.
Earlier, when Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan mentioned this plan, everyone had been momentarily blinded by the so-called "benefits" and their curiosity about the so-called Otherworldly Race. They had never taken the time to consider what kind of beings their opponents truly were.
They were not mere System monsters but a highly intelligent race!
Especially since they were currently on enemy territory; to put it bluntly, the Five Great Guilds Alliance was nominally attacking Alien Territory but was actually just a lone force trapped deep within enemy lines without any hope of assistance.
A lone force advancing deep into enemy territory was a major military blunder!
At the moment when the two Presidents were deep in thought, the NPC Army was suffering heavy losses. Under relentless bombardment, the once-thirty-thousand strong NPC Army had lost several thousand in an instant, and a distinct sound of friction echoed through the air.
It was the sound of a city gate opening!
Everyone was taken aback, gazing towards the towering and magnificent Alien City, where a gate had clearly swung open. Following that, a tide of Alien Cavalry surged forth, each riding mounts that charged towards the NPC Army like a stampede of thousands of horses.
"Kill!"
The soldiers, undeterred by death, felt invigorated at the sight of the approaching Alien Cavalry. They turned their weapons and charged forward to engage in battle with the Alien Cavalry. The clash of blades and desperate shouts filled the air like thunder.

Wuliang Mountain Heavenly Palace!
After taking down Naru, a heavy atmosphere hung over Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan and their companions.
They had already begun to grasp the ferocity of the Otherworldly Race!
The Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, did not miss the chance to demoralize them, stating that Naru was merely an appetizer. On the road leading to Limitless Mountain, they had no idea how many Alien Warriors far stronger than Naru awaited them!
Moreover, defeating a God-Level Boss had yielded no equipment drops!
This left everyone speechless. After a fierce struggle to bring down Naru, they had hoped for various powerful gear to appear, only to find nothing. If it had been anyone else, they might have already considered retreating rather than continuing on.
The only consolation was the substantial amount of Faction Merit Points they had gained.
Pressing on after encountering some minor monsters along the way, Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan's group of eight, along with a System NPC, finally stepped into the second floor of the so-called Wuliang Mountain Heavenly Palace!
However...
Unlike their previous experiences, the monsters within Wuliang Mountain Heavenly Palace were truly unique. Upon entering this new level, they first encountered an OSS instead of minor monsters. Only after defeating the OSS would smaller creatures emerge to finish off.
"Ah!"
The scout, One-Handed Riding in the Sky, suddenly halted, his gun pointed ahead as he declared sternly, "Attention! A target has appeared up ahead!"
Yi Tianchen drew his sword and activated the Identification Technique—
King of the Marshes: God-Level Boss
Level: 135
Magic Attack: 13,500–15,000
Defense: 12,000
Health: 5,000,000/5,000,000
Skills: Earth Collapse, Landslide Technique, Swamp Technique, Falling Star Meteor, Shield of the Marsh
Note: The long passage of time has birthed the powerful Eight Kings, each commanding a strand of natural power and possessing overwhelming strength. They can create all things and easily destroy them as well. Bound to guard an ancient secret, they remain trapped in the Wuliang Mountain Heavenly Palace for millennia upon millennia until they turn to dust.
Main Attack Method: ???
Main Weakness Location: ???
...
"The Eight Kings? What does that mean?" Yi Tianchen asked in surprise.
"It is said that the Wuliang Mountain Heavenly Palace has nine levels, each guarded by a supreme protector. The first level's Naru is just the beginning; the next eight levels are where the legendary Eight Kings reside, and they are the most formidable beings!"
A hint of bitterness rose in the eyes of Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss. "No one has ever breached their domain!"
"Whoa!"
With a bitter smile, everyone was at a loss for words. How could the usually arrogant Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, give such an evaluation?
They looked up...
King of the Marshes, Ha Chi, was wrapped in a long robe, his black cloak covering half of his face. They could only vaguely sense the deadly glint of his eyes hidden beneath the cloak, and a sparse beard adorned his slightly pointed chin. He held a staff in his hand.
Is this a mage!?
Everyone was speechless. It turned out that this so-called Otherworldly Race was merely another existence in a space separate from the Dreamland Continent. In terms of appearance, they were not much different from humans, except for being exceptionally tall. Even their professions were strikingly similar.
The previous Naru was a swordsman, and now Ha Chi was a mage!
However...
"Damn, how can a mage have such high defense?" Yesterday's Fireworks couldn't help but rage, "What? My defense is still under 5000 points!"
"Bang!"
As footsteps echoed, King of the Marshes, Ha Chi, immediately displayed an extreme rejection and expulsion towards the intruders Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan. With a wave of his staff, a giant rock suddenly appeared in mid-air. "Intruders will be killed without mercy!"
"Get back!" Yi Tianchen shouted.
