Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179: Chapter 177: Boundary Wall

Screams and shrill cries instantly echoed across the top of the city gate.

Si Muye thrust his palm out, sending two Lizardmen that had already scaled the wall flying.

But with fewer guards at this breach, it was already too late.

In just a few moments, dozens had already swarmed over the top.

In an instant, a life-or-death battle erupted atop the city gate.

Mu Silin, Gu Fangqi, and the others had been hovering in the air directly above the gate, holding back the main horde of Lizardmen.

But when they heard the screams from the side, they whipped their heads around in shock.

They had no choice but to fly down, retreating to the top of the gate to rescue the guards about to perish under the Lizardmen’s claws.

These beasts were manageable from a distance, but in close quarters, they were incredibly fast and felt no pain.

Crucially, there were too many of them, and their bodies carried a potent poison. If scratched, guards with low spiritual power would lose their sanity and transform into beasts within moments.

They would then become uncontrollable enemies, attacking everyone at random.

Before long, hundreds, even thousands, of Lizardmen had poured through the gap.

Mu Silin’s expression darkened.

He flew up into the air.

Spiritual power radiated from his body, blanketing the entire gate. He then brought his hands together and unleashed a powerful strike.

BOOM!!

The powerful shockwave blasted toward the Lizardmen.

In an instant, it shredded and blew away most of the Lizardmen standing on the city gate.

However, the attack also severely damaged the already crumbling city gate.

The entire gate seemed on the verge of collapse. Countless cracks spiderwebbed across its surface, and the very ground trembled.

Shattered stones flew in all directions.

Seeing this, Gu Fangqi’s and Ye Lüqi’s expressions grew grim.

Gu Fangqi blasted back a charging Lizardman with a palm strike and shouted:

"We can’t fight like this! If this continues, the entire city gate will collapse!"

Ye Lüqi said, "There’s only one way. The four of us combine our strength to build a spiritual power Boundary Wall and block these beasts outside it!"

Si Muye, saving a guard as he spoke, retorted:

"But once the spiritual power Boundary Wall is erected, the four of us will be immobile. We’ll have to continuously channel spiritual power. If any Lizardmen break through the city gate, we won’t be able to stop them!"

Moreover, casting the Boundary Wall required the casters to have the same level of spiritual power.

Their spirits also had to be in harmony.

If someone’s spiritual power failed midway, the Boundary Wall would collapse, which would be a devastating disaster for the others as well.

But Mu Silin flew down as he listened, declaring:

"To protect the people of this city, this is our only option! Otherwise, we can’t possibly stop this many beasts!"

His words hung in the air.

The four men exchanged a look.

Indeed, this was the only way.

Their decision made, Mu Silin bellowed an order:

"All soldiers, hear my order! Retreat behind the gate! Protect it, and do not fall back a single step!"

"Yes!"

The next second.

The four of them flew up.

They took their positions in the air above the gate, one at each of the four cardinal directions.

Then, spiritual power began to pour from all four of them simultaneously.

Their robes billowed, their hands came together, their movements perfectly synchronized.

Spiritual power gathered in their palms like a surging ocean.

The next moment, Mu Silin roared:

"Converge!!"

From their different positions, the four men pushed their hands out in unison. Four streams of different colored spiritual power instantly shot toward one another.

The moment they met.

A magnificent, powerful spiritual power Boundary Wall erupted from their center, spreading at the speed of light to descend and enclose the top of the gate.
