Dark clouds covered the sky and swallowed the light. That dimmed and depressed everything.

She looked from above. She could see the black tide formed by countless giant bugs on the ground and rapidly surged toward a towering city.

There were hard shells, ferocious pincers, sharp tail spikes, and deformed bodies. It exposed all the organs that didn’t conform to ordinary aesthetics.

The sight of these was enough to make people tremble in fear. A single one will do. Their number was dense as ants and enough to weaken the legs of the veteran.

Overlapping waves of attacks covered the city in the depths of the raging tides that earned them scars. The sturdy city walls were in danger, and many places had collapsed.

It could collapse at any time in the storm.

“Kill them!”

Xina gripped the five-stars top-tier weapon. That was the dragon-slaying sword. She looked at the giant worms while they fearlessly surged toward her like a tidal wave.

Her figure was always the first to appear before the other party without the giant worm that climbed up the city wall.

Blood Qi Burning burst out from her body. Her broken steel longsword ignited with endless energy.

The weapon tore the seven-to-eight-meter-tall giant worm like tofu.

Her figure was like lightning as she moved through the most intense part of the battlefield.

The soldiers who fought alongside her on the city wall fell one after another under the impact of the giant worms. The figures around her appeared increasingly fewer.

An unknown time has passed.

A streak of scarlet suddenly appeared in the thick clouds in the sky.

Then, the scarlet color quickly spread and enveloped the world.

The giant worm that was still attacking fiercely became restless at this moment.

Then, it retreated like a tide.

The ferocious figure disappeared without a trace. That left behind only exaggerated corpses before the city walls.

Xina looked up, and the Crimson Moon quietly appeared in the clouds.

The clouds that covered the sky and earth couldn’t get close to the blood moon. Something must have forced it away.

Her tensed heart slowly relaxed when she saw this familiar scene.

She knew that the Krina Tribe had survived another calamity.

That was because similar things had happened countless times in the past month.

“Xina, are you alright?”

A tired voice behind her interrupted her thoughts. She turned around and saw a middle-aged female warrior covered in blood leaning against the city wall. She held her sword with one hand and tried to stand firm. Her trembling arm made people worry that she might fall to the ground in the next moment.

“Commander Karen, I’m okay.”

Xina saw the other party’s face while she forced a smile.

However, she could not conceal the weakness in her tone.

Karen heaved a long sigh. “It’s good that you’re okay.”

She looked outside the city wall with a complicated expression.

At this moment, those giant worms had disappeared without a trace. That was more fearsome in her heart.

The hoarse voice slowly said, “These giant worms freeze their attacks every time the Crimson Moon rises.”
