"The first defensive battle, the Triumphant Alliance is ready."

"The summoned creature for the battle, X-level — City of a Thousand Ghosts!"

The next day.

10:00 PM.

The horn of the defensive battle sounded.

The first round of competition.

Long Guo vs. Triumphant Alliance.

The battle officially kicked off.

In the sky, a huge and mysterious eyeball protruded, like a projector,

projecting every moment of the battlefield in real-time for every country to watch.

The nature of the defensive battle meant there would be no audience on-site, and everyone looked up at the giant screen in the sky.

The image quality was exceptionally clear.

Even if a mosquito or fly flew by, it could be seen clearly.

Although the audience was elsewhere, their voices were recorded and broadcast globally.

"I remember the defensive battle has a three-day preparation time, right?"

"It's only been two days, is the Triumphant Alliance so impatient?"

"Are they planning to give up resistance and break the pot?"

"Don't, I was counting on them to give it a try and force Long Guo to reveal a few more trump cards, which would be more beneficial to our Tianzhu Alliance!"

"Our Tianzhu Alliance is unlucky; if we were drawn in the first round, the Triumphant Alliance would probably have saved the trouble of complex preparations!"

The audience of the Tianzhu Alliance was as confident as ever.

Even more so, taking advantage of not being on-site, they wantonly made attacking remarks,

belittling Long Guo's summoned creatures, calling them worthless.

Long Guo's audience immediately fought back,

"Heh, if you were drawn in the first round, you would probably have been scared out of your wits long ago."

"Guys who only know how to talk, if you have the guts, apply to the judge now and let the Tianzhu Alliance go first!"

"Is barking online useful? If you have the guts, let's see the real deal offline!"

"Don't worry, if your Tianzhu Alliance applies for the first battle, I'll support it with both hands and feet!"

"The 'Third Brothers' are probably too full and have indigestion; they'll be obedient after starving for two meals."

After a round of counterattacks,

Some "Third Brothers" who couldn't hold their breath really started calling for the Tianzhu Alliance to go first.

The person in charge of the Tianzhu Alliance, Rasur, hurriedly ordered his subordinates,

to let a few SS-level summoned creatures teach these guys who spoke out of turn a lesson.

Bastards.

When it comes to national affairs, how can one act impulsively!

Although Rasur wasn't sure if applying would get the approval of that mysterious judge.

But being cautious never hurts.

What if the application is successful,

Wouldn't that make me look stupid!

Soon, those "Third Brothers" who had been taught a lesson by the summoned creatures were like deflated balls and stopped talking.

They didn't even dare to fart.

They obediently watched the defensive battle.

The audience of Da Xiong Guo and Xiao Han Nation also restrained themselves,

"Triumphant Alliance, go for it, you must win! You must defeat Long Guo and severely suppress their arrogance!"

"Our Da Xiong Guo (Xiao Han Nation) will always be your strong backing!"

After a brief statement,

They fell silent.

Immediately, the image of the mysterious judge appeared in mid-air.

Zhang Cheng stood on the floating platform, waiting for the opportunity.

"The defensive side is ready."

"The attacking side is ready."

"Now announcing, the first defensive battle, officially begins!"

"Attacking side, enter!"

As the instruction was given,

The platform under Zhang Cheng's feet slowly descended.

He was sent to the main gate of the City of a Thousand Ghosts.

The thirty-meter-high stone city wall extended from both sides, surrounding the entire city, and there were watchtowers at intervals on the wall.

The huge city gate was like the mouth of a monster, and the watchtowers were its eyes.

Just outside the city gate, one could smell a pungent stench.

"City of a Thousand Ghosts..."

"It really stinks."

Unable to bear this smell, Zhang Cheng took out a mask and put it on, then walked into the City of a Thousand Ghosts without looking back.

Just as he stepped into the city boundary,

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Dozens of sharp arrows broke through the air.

The speed was as fast as lightning, aiming straight for vital points.

"Ambush!"

Zhang Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, wind rose under his feet, and he agilely bent over and rolled, as if he had foreseen everything.

Easily avoiding every arrow.

This is...

Zhang Cheng picked up an arrow to examine it,

"Bone arrows?"

"There are still blood stains and muscle tissue on it, it seems to be newly made."

After saying this, he casually discarded the bone arrow.

He looked up at the ancient clock tower in the city center.

Clang—clang—clang—

The melodious bell echoed in the city.

Looking closely,

It was almost nine o'clock.

"Let's end this battle as soon as possible!"

Zhang Cheng stepped forward and finally entered the edge of the city.

On both sides of the wide street, there was a street lamp every few dozen meters.

Perhaps due to lack of maintenance, the lights were dim, and some went out completely after flickering.

Calling it the Middle Ages,

In reality, it was more like the steampunk era after the first industrial revolution.

Huge factories, roads piled with coal slag, and giant gears and bearings visible everywhere.

The style was unique and distinct.

"The City of a Thousand Ghosts should have been medieval style, but now it's the steam age."

"Could it be a combination of modern and medieval, taking the middle value of the steam age?"

Various whimsical ideas emerged in Zhang Cheng's mind.

While walking, he observed his surroundings.

Clearly it was the City of a Thousand Ghosts,

Strangely, he hadn't encountered a single ghost yet.

"Could it be... I went the wrong way?"

Whoosh!

Just as he was thinking, a black shadow suddenly swept past from behind.

He turned his head sharply, but found nothing.

"No ghosts."

Zhang Cheng scratched his head and looked up at the blood-red moon.

The dark red light spilled over the earth, casting a strange filter over the entire city.

The only anomaly was,

Zhang Cheng had been inside for ten minutes,

But hadn't seen any ghostly figures.

"Eh, there's a tavern ahead."

Zhang Cheng noticed the light ahead and walked over to find a tavern with its doors tightly shut.

Named — York City's First Tavern.

"Arrogant enough, daring to name it 'First'."

"I, Zhang Cheng, want to see what's going on!"

Saying this, Zhang Cheng walked toward the tavern.

With a creak.

The door was pushed open!

"It's done!"

Steve, who was watching the battle from afar, became excited,

"As far as I know, in this York City's First Tavern, there are at least three SS-level summoned creatures hidden."

"They are hiding in the dark, preparing to ambush Zhang Cheng!"

"If Zhang Cheng summons a summoned creature, he might be able to escape this disaster."

"But he is too arrogant, stupidly entering the City of a Thousand Ghosts alone without any assistance."

"Once he enters the tavern, he will surely die!"

"I never expected victory to come so easily!"

Steve laughed so hard he couldn't close his mouth,

He clenched his fists in excitement, his whole body trembling with excitement.

A staff member on the side laughed: "Officer Steve, it seems we are really going to win this time."

"Look, Zhang Cheng has opened the door!"

"Opened, opened!"

"He's going in!"

"Going in... eh?"

"No, why did he stop moving!"

In the City of a Thousand Ghosts.

Zhang Cheng opened the door of the First Tavern.

Then he stood in front of the door, and immediately summoned the SSS-level strange weapon — Dark Rose (revolver), waiting quietly.

Immediately after, a werewolf covered in fur poked its head out,

"Strange?"

"Where is the person? I clearly heard him say he was going into the tavern."

"Why can't I see anyone?"

However, the next instant,

Bang!

Zhang Cheng pulled the trigger.

One shot ended the life of this werewolf!

Zhang Cheng was expressionless: "You want to trick me with this little trick?"

"You underestimate me too much!"

Super artifact 【Dark Rose】.

Function: one shot can kill an SS-level terrifying monster.

The moment Zhang Cheng raised the 【Dark Rose】, the fate of that SS-level werewolf was already sealed.

"Damn it!"

"Long Guo's contestant is really too cunning, he saw through our plan at a glance!"

Steve's mouth twitched slightly; he never expected that such a powerful SS-level terrifying monster would be finished off so carelessly.

It didn't even force out Zhang Cheng's terrifying monsters!

Truly useless!

"It's okay, he only eliminated one SS-level werewolf."

"According to the intelligence I have, in that tavern, there are at least three more such strong werewolves!"

"And there are hundreds of S-level fake werewolves."

"I don't believe Zhang Cheng can avoid entering that tavern!"

Steve's confidence returned.

He picked up a document.

It recorded the level classification of werewolves in detail.

Fake Werewolf: Dominated by human consciousness, has a body as agile as a wolf, but because it is controlled by humans, its aggressiveness is not particularly high.

Werewolf: Human and wolf consciousness are integrated, possesses a very sturdy physique, can walk upright in human form, and can also run on all fours. Extremely fast, often lurking in the dark, secretly attacking ordinary people.

They have a violent temperament, strange behavior, and are easily provoked.

Werewolf King: A supernatural existence that transcends humans and wolves, can run fast at night, and its claws and teeth are as hard as steel.

Large in size, possesses both human wisdom and wolfish cold-bloodedness.
