Over Tianyuan City, the prolonged wailing of the alarm echoed, lingering for a long ti.
Within the city, in district after district, the militia mbers of the security teams received the order and fiercely struck the alarm bells constructed on the rooftops of the security buildings, and the sound "Dang~ Dang~" spread out with it.
Each note struck like a hamr to the chest, heavy, oppressive, panic-inducing, as if one could hardly breathe.
In fact, a day earlier, Tianyuan City had already halted all work and notified the Territory Citizens that there would be a monster wave assaulting the city.
The ones responsible for maintaining order within the city were the militia mbers of the Tianyuan Territory security teams.
——Most of them were not of military origin, but were selected from the older Territory Citizens, a group of more experienced and knowledgeable individuals, or perhaps those who had already switched to the 'warrior' profession and perford well.
There is a place in Tianyuan City for transforming into a warrior.
Outside Tianyuan City, there was also a building for transforming into a mage.
However, the few who t the conditions and transford into mages were already part of the candidate squad of the Defensive Troops. After all, the precious mages could play far more significant roles in the defense of the city than warriors.
The security team mbers had already spread the knowledge of evacuation techniques to all the Territory Citizens and instructed everyone to lock their doors and windows and not to go out into the streets, to quietly wait for the war to end.
Secondly, the intensity of the city defense battle was undoubtedly going to be much stronger than the Red Fog Disaster Moon a few months ago.
Back during the Red Fog Disaster Moon, the primary target of the monster wave was Shiling Town, hundreds of kiloters away; their Tianyuan Territory did not suffer much impact. He even dared to use the Misfortune Charm Flower to divert so of the wave, a sign that everything was under control.
But now, the monster wave was formidable, with an unknown number of Legendary Realm beings present, as well as... under the monster system of Tianqi Eternal Life, so troubleso war weapons.
Shiling Town, in the beginning, did not face large war weapons, nor Legendary Realm enemies.
Even so, Shiling Town was still unable to intercept all monsters, and occasionally, flying monsters would break into the town, causing significant damage.
Seventeen had experienced two Shiling Town (Shiling City) defense battles, she had seen many instances of monsters slaughtering ordinary people.
Even if these monsters breaching the city were quickly killed, or even shot down before they landed, the large carcasses falling could easily cause casualties among the ordinary people in the open areas.
"To be honest, apart from high-end weapon buildings like the Mirrorlight Barrier, Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower, Interdiate Mage Tower, Necromancy Tower, Ice Crystal Tower, in terms of ordinary city defense weapons and the standard garrison, Tianyuan City is still not as good as Shiling Town back then."
The good news is that Tianyuan City is smaller in area compared to Shiling Town, so the defense periter is not as large.
The bad news is that having only the thousands of 'main force reserve' troops of Tianyuan Territory spread out across the entire defense line, the line seed quite thin.
Even if he had various city defense weapons and 'Mirrorlight Barrier,' this godly protective technique, he must make ample security precautions within the city.
Otherwise, a slight mishap, allowing a few monsters to slip through, could result in imasurable damage.
Once damage occurred, panic could easily spread throughout the city.
Keep in mind that in today's Tianyuan City, more than half of the city's population were new Territory Citizens who had settled here for less than half a month.
It was essential to guard against flying monsters or those capable of making long-range throws.
"Ultimately, Tianyuan City was built too quickly, without enough ti to excavate and construct underground shelters."
Otherwise, going underground would be the safest option.
Now, Mu Yuan could only tell the Territory Citizens to hide inside their own hos and lock their doors and windows tightly.
He looked down with the perspective of a Lord.
On the streets of Tianyuan City, aside from the mbers of the Defensive Troops and Patrol Troops, hardly a few figures could be seen.
On both sides of the road, one after another, the "return"-shaped buildings occupied not insignificant space. These buildings were the main residential buildings of Tianyuan City, each capable of accommodating a large number of tenants.
In the central courtyard of the buildings was a Miracle Building 'Well' constructed to continuously extract water.
By sealing the building's doors and closing the windows, leaving only so small holes, such residential buildings could instantly transform into bunkers.
This wasn't Mu Yuan's innovation, but rather sothing he learned from other more experienced Lords. These buildings might not be comparable to underground shelters, but in tis of war, they could effectively reduce damage to one's own side.
"All the necessary preparations have been made; next, it's ti to stand firm and defend the city."
...
At this mont,
countless defenders on Tianyuan City's defense line were ready for battle.
Among them were the Undead Legion, the main force of the Defensive Troops, and a large number of reserves who were not part of any corps but were of First-order professional level and Second-order elite level.
There were also a few who had switched to the warrior profession and had reached the peak of Apprentice level, and a small number had even stepped into First-order.
These Territory Citizens were the elites pulled from the patrol teams; their duty was not to combat monsters directly, and of course, Mu Yuan wouldn't arrange for these frail citizens to face the monsters head-on.
They stayed behind the Black Rock City Wall, within the towering sniper towers.
In front of them, one after another, the ferocious and mighty city defense weapons, painted with red and blue — the Thunder Fla Cannons — were set up.
They were the operators of the cannons.
After all, the Thunder Fla Cannon was a man-made weapon, unlike Miracle Buildings that could shoot and lock onto targets by themselves. It required shooters, observers, and people to replace the ammunition belts.
Having them operated by Territory Citizens who had already switched professions was more suitable than using clueless reserves.
