The Fourth Calamity: Starting with Dungeon Slimes

"I don't know!"

"Yes, we haven't done much lately."

"It can't be that we've been hunting a lot lately, so the wolf clan is fighting desperately."

"That can't be right. We've hunted like this before and they never reacted this strongly."

For a moment, the players were also a bit confused.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

However, at that moment...

Several players in the distance hurriedly jumped towards this side. Jiang Chen recognized these people; they were the ones who had been taking care of Moses.

"No...this is terrible!"

"Something terrible has happened!! The Demon Wolf Clan has attacked!"

"Quickly...wait, what?...You all know?"

The people who rushed over to deliver the news were all somewhat surprised.

"I just found out," replied the attacking salted fish.

"Okay, you know that's good. Let's go, let's hurry up to the city wall. This time, the Demon Wolf Clan has mobilized their entire force."

However, just as the players were about to make their move, Jiang Chen called them back.

"Wait... what's going on? You guys are all taking care of Moses, what's happening with it? The demon wolves have arrived and it's not going to help?"

Jiang Chen was somewhat puzzled.

"Um...that..."

When Jiang Chen asked, the players who were taking care of Moses hesitated.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Chen instantly realized that something was wrong.

"What's going on? Did something happen to Moses?"

"It shouldn't really be considered an accident..." Finally, the player with the ID "Wind Howling" stepped forward.

"What do you mean by 'shouldn't count'?" Jiang Chen asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Well, to be honest, this is my fault... We've been taking care of that stupid dragon these past few days, and Watermelon Knife was saying to try to do as many tricks as possible."

"I just happened to have leveled up the skill that the earth dragon taught me to LV5, so I thought I'd try it out."

"Then, I tried to control the thing and give it a full-body massage."

"And then?" Jiang Chen asked instinctively.

"Then...then it fell into a comfortable sleep, and the kind you can't wake up no matter what you do..."

Jiang Chen:...

Everyone:...

"So you fucking put the earth dragon to sleep ahead of time?" Jiang Chen felt his head throbbing.

Jiang Chen had considered all sorts of possibilities, but this was the one he hadn't thought of.

"I'm speechless. These are all talented people. They know this earth dragon will only be dormant for a short time, yet you all come here to do this..."

"Hey boss, what do we do now?" one player asked.

"What to do? Defend, counterattack, what else can we do!" Jiang Chen said irritably.

Jiang Chen was quite satisfied with the tanks that the players had been working on recently, and at this pace, it would be completed in just a few days.

Once completed, a direct confrontation with either the Demon Wolf Clan or the Lizard Clan shouldn't be a problem.

Who would have thought they'd pull such a stunt?

"Jiang Chen, are we going to get into trouble?" Lilith, who was standing next to him, was also a little worried.

Although Lilith often saw players returning from hunting during this period, it was always just one animal, whereas players usually went out in groups.

This time, however, it's an attack by the entire Demon Wolf Clan, which is completely different.

"If we can't even deal with the mere Demon Wolf Clan, how are we supposed to advance?"

As he spoke, Jiang Chen immediately began to urge the players to take action, while he himself led Lilith toward the military stronghold that Lilith had never entered before.

At this moment, Lilith, who was following behind Jiang Chen, was also feeling uneasy.

The entire Demon Wolf Clan mobilized, which made Lilith very uneasy.

Not long after...

When Lilith and Jiang Chen arrived at the observation tower not far from the entrance to Jiang Chen's territory, their vision suddenly went black.

First, there was the entrance to the cave in Jiang Chen's territory, where a tall city wall had been built. Lilith didn't know what materials it was made of, but she knew very well that such a city wall, though seemingly sturdy, would probably be destroyed in just a few spells.

Meanwhile, the group of Pata had all arrived at the city wall, which was covered with various siege weapons.

For example, there were huge ballistae and cannons.

"Wait? Where did the cannon come from?"

Lilith was filled with questions.

Lilith had also heard of cannons. It was said that they only existed in the human empire, and that the human empire had many different kinds of cannons, including ordinary cannons, magic crystal cannons, and many other types of cannons.

However, these are all top-secret technologies of humankind, which other races simply cannot replicate.

Lilith's father also tried to build cannons to attack the Nightmare Clan. He successfully built them, but they exploded after only a few shots. Lilith's father never figured out what happened.

"So how were these Pata made?"

but...

Even after seeing hundreds of demon wolves outside, Lilith still felt very uncertain.

Even if there were cannons, these slimes only have two.

Moreover, judging from these cannons, they don't seem to be powerful magic crystal cannons; they appear to be just ordinary cannons.

These cannons are fine for dealing with low-level monsters, but the monsters outside are all level 60 and above. How are we supposed to fight them?

"Jiang Chen, do you want me to go help?" Lilith finally made a decision.

As a succubus herself, she could be of great help in the fight.

Judging from the current situation, Jiang Chen's side is being crushed. If he doesn't go to help, he will also be doomed if the Demon Wolf Clan takes over the area.

Lilith wasn't naive enough to think that the demon wolves outside would be as easy to talk to as Jiang Chen.

"No need, you can just stand and watch."

Are you joking to let me pass?

Jiang Chen was really afraid that Lilith had died over there.

Players can summon themselves whenever they die, but if Lilith dies, they'll have nowhere to cry.

It's not just because of the Lilith family's territory, but more importantly, because of the knowledge Lilith possesses about the outside world.

He was completely in the dark about the outside world.

Don't even think about the earth dragon; it's been staying here for hundreds of years, so it doesn't know anything about it.

Lilith is the only one who is very knowledgeable about the outside world. Her understanding of the distribution of power and the terrain will be of great use to Jiang Chen in the future.

Of course, we can't let her die here.

While Jiang Chen was still talking to Lilith, the battle between the players and the demon wolves had already begun.

At that moment, Salty Fish stood on the city wall with a homemade megaphone and started shouting down.

"Fenrir, why are you invading our territory?"

"We have no grudge against each other, why are you doing this?"

Fenrir, the wolf leading his tribe below, flew into a rage upon hearing what the salted fish said.

"You damned thugs! You've been hunting our people all this time, relying on the dragon's protection!"

"I've held this grudge for a long time. Now that the dragons are asleep, I'll see who can protect you!"

Upon hearing this, Salty Fish, while frantically giving winks to the players next to him, continued speaking.

"It's a misunderstanding, Fenrir! We didn't kill your people. They either accidentally stepped into a pit and fell to their deaths, or they ran into a blade and died."

Lilith was a little confused as she listened to the conversation between the two sides.

"What are they doing?"

What does it mean to accidentally step into a pit and fall to your death? What does it mean to run into a knife and die? Do you want to listen to what you're saying?

Seeing Lilith's exaggerated reaction, Jiang Chen remained calm.

"Haven't you ever heard of a pre-battle challenge?"

"And take a closer look at our turrets, and our ballistae."

Upon hearing this, Lilith looked in that direction with some confusion.

She was shocked to see that the group of Pata had taken advantage of the shouting match to secretly turn their cannons around and aim at Fenrir, the leader of the Demon Wolf Clan.

"That's despicable!"
