A simple, manually built perimeter wall encircled the settlement. At this moment, chaotic fighting had erupted on this wall—a structure with a radius of five to six kilometers, a height of twenty to thirty meters, and a thickness of five to six meters. A dense horde of ghoul-like creatures, forming a line thirty kilometers long, was assaulting the small settlement in a seemingly endless, unceasing wave.
The players inside the settlement had all rushed to the front to hold back the monster tide. Close Combat players with shields held the front line, while countless players who had inherited other game abilities rapidly cast all sorts of skills from the rear. Some applied buffs, some provided healing, and others picked off the larger monsters. There were also those creating fire walls, ice walls, shockwaves, and other area-of-effect attacks.
