Song Jian looked ahead, and the monster in front of him was clad in armor, appearing mighty and extraordinary. If not for the red text above its head that read [LVio Patrol Zombie – Robert], it would be difficult for people to associate it with a zombie monster;

[LVio Patrol Zombie-Robert] (Elite), Vitality: 900/1800, Characteristics: Exceptionally strong, Super psychic power, High-level horsemanship; Skills: Precise throw, Charge, Arc Slash;

Ta-ta-ta-

The sound of horse hooves stamped on the street, crisp and clear, even amidst the roar of hundreds of monsters, one could still hear it clearly;

Boom-

Under the attack of the estate’s defense equipment, yet another Elite Level BOSS was killed. To everyone’s surprise, this BOSS exploded just before its death. The area surrounding it for five or six meters suddenly became an empty ground. Ten Wooden Spike Traps were destroyed at once, and even two of the Falling Rock Traps on the wall were destroyed, the wall’s defense value was directly reduced by nearly fifty points;

The defense value of a level three stone wall is as much as 3,600 points, higher than the defense value of many players’ safe houses. But after more than an hour of continuous attacks, the defense value has dropped to less than 500 points;

Many traps near the walls have already been destroyed. To repair them would be almost the same as rebuilding them, and they have to wait until the battle is over;

Out of the four Arrow Towers at the four corners, two have been completely destroyed, while the remaining two are still firing crossbow bolts incessantly;

Only the Catapult Tower, which had not been attacked by the monsters, was still able to launch stone projectiles continuously. Song Jian only needed to replenish the wood required for the two Arrow Towers and the stone required for the catapults from time to time;

The number of monsters was decreasing, and all the monsters within a kilometer radius had gathered here. Most had already perished, and only over a hundred monsters remained, still surrounding the walls, looking much thinner than before;

These monsters were all level five, including Level 5 Elite BOSSes and Level 10 Elite BOSSes – seven or eight of them. Every time they appeared, they would cause significant damage to the estate’s defenses. Most of the damage was caused by these Level 10 BOSSes. Fortunately, they did not appear all at once; otherwise, Song Jian would not be sure if he could hold on until now;

“Now, you’re the only enemy left!” Song Jian muttered to himself as he looked at the Patrol Zombie on the warhorse;

Even though there were still hundreds of Level 5 monsters surrounding the estate, Song Jian had only one enemy in his eyes;

“Robert, Robert, this name is so familiar…” Song Jian frowned slightly, as if he recalled something, and hurriedly opened the task interface to check;

Indeed, he found the name Robert in a side mission;

Second part of the chain mission: Searching for the fallen grounds of the former city Guardian Robert and find Robert, who has been transformed into a zombie;

To complete this mission, the minimum requirement is to reach Level 10. Song Jian hasn’t met the requirement yet. Unexpectedly, instead of searching for Robert, Robert appeared right before his eyes;

Suddenly, Song Jian felt a bit distressed. The mission required finding the fallen grounds of Robert first, then discovering clues and searching for Robert. The following task would likely involve killing Robert;

But now, Robert is right in front of him, obviously skipping the previous steps and directly advancing to the last step;

“Skipping the foreplay and going straight to the main theme, the experience will be much worse!” Song Jian grumbled, frowning and muttering to himself;

When Robert was a hundred meters away from the estate, he lightly nudged the horse’s spur on his right foot, and the warhorse beneath him began to trot slowly;

Ta-ta-ta-ta-

The consecutive sound of horse hooves became more and more urgent, like drums stirring the heart to beat faster;

Thud-

A zombie blocking the path of the warhorse was directly struck, flying away like a burst bag, drawing an arc in the sky before crashing down fiercely onto the street, killed instantly;

The warhorse’s speed grew faster and faster, reminiscent of a heavy armored vehicle, emanating an unstoppable force. The monsters blocking its path could not bear its impact, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, they were directly crushed;

“This boss is fierce!”

“No joke, it’s a boss with a valuable horse. Can it be comparable to those poor bosses that walk on two legs?”

“That momentum, it feels like a train starting to move. I’m afraid even a third-level stone wall wouldn’t withstand it.”

“Hard to say, after all, it’s made of flesh and blood…”

“But it’s a zombie…”

Boom-

As the spectators were discussing fervently, Robert struck the wall with his long sword, with a deafening sound;

A nearly two-meter section of the third-level stone wall collapsed, creating a massive gap. The wooden spike traps at the base of the wall and the falling rock traps on the wall were all directly damaged, unable to be repaired;

“This attack is fierce. If it hits me directly, my small body would probably be instantly killed like those monsters.” Song Jian took a sharp breath and pinched his teeth with a constipated expression;

Without waiting for Song Jian to issue an attack order, the Bloody Ghostly Poison Tree launched an attack at the intruding Robert, an elite-level zombie patrolling the courtyard. Countless roots emerged from the soil and wrapped around Robert. Wisps of black ghostly air emerged from the tree, constantly condensing in mid-air into wandering skull-shaped objects, emitting heart-wrenching shrieks as they moved towards Robert;

Thump, thump-

Yellowish-red leaves, exuding a bloody sweetness, whip towards Robert like a tough whip, accompanied by a piercing sound that made people nauseous;

Immediately, the courtyard was filled with cold winds and ghostly howls, like the lair of hellish ghosts;

After devouring too many monster corpses and dropped items, the Bloody Ghostly Poison Tree had reached level 6 as an Elite Boss. Although it was four levels lower than Robert, this was the home field of the Bloody Ghostly Poison Tree. Robert intruded like he stepped into a swamp;

Countless roots wrapped around the armored legs of the warhorse, while small spikes went through the gaps in the armor, continuously absorbing the horse’s vitality;

Underneath him, the warhorse jumped frantically, leaving Robert unable to control it for a moment;

Robert’s helmet hid his face, so no one could see his expression, but the green flames in his eye sockets suddenly intensified;

Whoosh-

Robert swung his long sword, releasing an arc-shaped Sword Qi, cutting off all the roots wrapped around the warhorse;

The branches hit Robert’s armor, making a crisp collision sound, but the damage to Robert was nearly zero, only leaving shallow burn marks on the surface of his armor;

More than a dozen skulls condensed by black ghostly air, with long black tails, pounced at Robert. When they were still dozen centimeters away, they disintegrated as if they had hit an invisible wall;

All their attack methods were barely effective, making the Bloody Ghostly Poison Tree furious. The human face appeared on the trunk showed a fierce expression, opening its mouth to reveal sharp fangs, and a dark red mist sprayed from the tree toward Robert;
