612 Chapter 414: The Alarm Blows, and the Enemy Appears Suddenly [1/3]



After Auntie Marie emerged from the Russian olive forest, she wiped the sweat off her forehead.

Her chubby face was like an apple cut in half, which was particularly striking.

Although she had been busy for a day, she was physically and mentally exhausted, especially in a hot environment like the desert.

However, she became spirited again as she looked at the plump Russian olives. Pride and a sense of accomplishment filled her day.

Since Lord Richard appointed her as the person in charge of the agricultural area, she would come on time every day, whether under the scorching sun or the scorching heat.

That was her responsibility and also her honor.

To contribute her strength to Twilight City was her uttermost satisfaction.

It was an opportunity she had never experienced in half her life.

Auntie Mari waved at the residents who walked out of the Russian olive forest after she rested for a while.

"Pack up your things. Other than those who are on night duty, leave now."

Although the gods bestowed the treasures Russian olive forest and the desert barley that could mature once a month, Aunt Marie still obliged herself to take care of them.

However, as Twilight City developed, the Russian olives changed from an essential food source to a flower provider for desert bees.

Although the functions had changed, the responsibilities of everyone in the agricultural area remained the same.

'And recently, Lord Richard ordered a large-scale plantation in the underworld.

'This was a gift from the gods, so I must carefully take care of this.'

Yearning engulfed Auntie Marie's thoughts as she pondered.

She had paid close attention to this area as the person in charge of the agriculture area.

She would immediately bring the staff of the agricultural area to participate when there was a need.

That was the legendary underground world. Marie could brag to others soon if she could bring people to the underground world to farm.

"Auntie Marie, we're leaving."

"Auntie Marie, I got two desert-long-necked chickens in the trap I set yesterday. Come to my house for dinner today..."

The staff members inside greeted her with smiles on their faces.

Auntie Marie smiled in response. Everyone turned around and headed back to Twilight City after they gathered. 

The residents carried farm tools and stepped on the yellow sand at sunset. They left long shadows.

They gave off an inexplicable sense of harmony.

The crowd perked up as they approached the city wall.

The ice and snow spirit statues covered the entire city. No matter how high the temperature outside was, the interior of Twilight City was very cool.

They could isolate themselves from the heat as they stepped inside the city.

That was what every resident who worked outside yearned for the most when they returned every day.

As they approached the towering city wall, Aunt Marie's footsteps were light.

The moment she stepped into the city gate, a loud rumbling sound like a landslide suddenly echoed throughout the world.

The group of people subconsciously turned their heads.

In the next second, everyone felt a chill.

At the end of their line of sight, the sky was like broken glass, with countless cracks that appeared.

Some of the cracks rapidly expanded, and what was even more terrifying was that countless black spots that the naked eye could not see crawled out from those cracks...

They tried their best to open their eyes. But they were too far away. They only saw black dots flew toward Twilight City.

"Enemy attack!"

A thought appeared in everyone's mind.

It startled Aunt Marie awake. She roared at everyone.

"Quickly enter the city! Those are the enemies!"

Unexpectedly, there was no chaos. The residents still carried their farm tools and stared fiercely at the enemies. From the looks of it, they wanted to rush up and fight with the attackers...

'Wuuu!'

A deep and long horn sounded from within the city.

The residents who were still busy with work quickly put down the tools in their hands and began to leave in an orderly manner. The crowd orderly moved quickly, although they were noisy.

The residents had long developed the habit of dealing with war after several experiences.

Every week, they would organize drills to deal with the war.

In the instance dungeon, Twilight City fell, and all the residents died once.

They would not wait for the enemies to slaughter them like lambs!

Coupled with the 95 points of popularity, no one could predict how terrifying the cohesiveness of Twilight City would be.

The entire city immediately began to operate at high speed.

The skeleton blood dragon spread its wings and flew away. It brought back all the residents who still worked outside.

It did not miss to bring the desert bees and the fire dragon rabbits either.

All the soldiers in the city immediately climbed up the city wall and loaded the alchemy cannons. Archers shrouded the three arrow towers.

The city, which had just been peaceful, immediately armed to the teeth.

Auntie Marie instructed the workers in the agricultural area to participate in the logistics preparations. She even took a long knife and a small shield to protect herself.

It was the same for the other residents. Although they could not fight on the front line, they could also support the frontline troops in their ways.

Karu, Gunter, Gray, and Emily hurriedly climbed up the city wall and looked at the commotion in the distance.

The large cracks in space looked terrifying.

That was not an action that ordinary life forms could create.

Karu's expression was grave.

"Those enemies… They're not weaklings!"

He turned to look at the two mummy heroes beside him and was about to say something when Emily, the little centaur who had always been like a child, stood up.

She stared at the few of them and spoke in a clear but firm tone.

"Gray, immediately send a message to the Bloodhoof City to send reinforcements."
