Like Yang Tian’s Immovable Bastion skill and Nangong Lei’s Lightning Spirit Possession, Fire Leviathan was Yao Mei’s most powerful skill at the moment. Also, like the two skills mentioned above, Fire Leviathan was strictly linked to Yao Mei’s power in the real world.
When Yao Mei obtained her Fire Spirit ss, she acquired six skills in total. Of these six skills, two of them were linked to Yao Mei’s fire control and, although they were extremely powerful, they also had consequences for being used. What happened with Nangong Lei was a clear example of the possible consequences of using skills that put too much strain on the yer’s brain.
One of the two special skills Yao Mei obtained was Meteor Storm; this skill caused constant fire-type damage to all targets within the area affected by the meteor rain for ten seconds. The most amazing thing was that the area of effect was really wide, almost two kilometers long!
But after using Meteor Storm, Yao Mei felt a twinge of pain in her head. Although no one noticed it because she always kept the same indifferent face, she knew that this pain did exist.
The second special skill that was strictly linked to Yao Mei’s Esper power in the real world was Fire Leviathan. But, although this skill was really powerful, if possible, she would rather not have to use it since the consequences would be really severe.
Soon, the fifth and final wave where the monsters were furiously attacking in an attempt to break through the city gates in front of them, and the yers were defending the city behind their backs broke out.
Only one type of monster appeared. But that one monster made the yers feel chills running through their bodies.
[Poisonous Skunk -
Level: 20
HP: 1600
Description: A small and slippery monster that stinks everything it touches. Its venom is said to be the stinkiest in existence.
(Innate skill):
Corrosion (Passive): When attacking an enemy has a 5% chance to cause ’Poison’ effect, which consumes 60 health points of the enemy per second for 5 seconds.]
The sight of at least 200,000 level twenty monsters attacking at the same time caused the defending yers to shiver and the thought of retreating shed in their minds for a split second. Moreover, the fact that the monsters were small in size did not make it any less intimidating; the small monsters were extremely difficult to hit as they could move between the yers’ legs quickly.
Although there were over 1 million yers still alive protecting the northern zone, the situation was not too optimistic as it practically took ten yers or more to kill a single Poison Skunk. If it wasn’t for the fact that there were people capable of fighting one or two on their own, the yers would have already lost this battle as many monsters would have broken through the city gates.
Naturally, the person who contributed the most on the battlefield was none other than the Empress of Fire Yao Mei.
Each swing of her staff took the life of a monster and every time her AOE skills were off cooldown, several tens of monsters were killed for each second that passed.
Yao Mei’s current level was 18, so the level difference was not too muchpared to the Poison Skunks; her attacks never missed and the little beast’s meager defense could not even stop normal attacks, let alone Yao Mei’s attacks.

-West Gate
"<i>*Achoo!*</i>... Damn monsters!"
<i>Boom!</i>
Xie Feng sneezed and swore loudly as he swung his spear in a wide arc in front of him, iming the lives of at least a dozen monsters.
[Yeti -
Level: 20
HP: 1800
Description: A big sized beast with cold air around it. They have great strength and vitality but their defense and mobility are usually below average.
(Innate Skill):
Cold Aura (Passive): The low temperatures of its body make the enemy’s body shiver, affecting its mobility to a great extent.]
After fighting for more than thirty minutes against the Yetis, Xie Feng finally felt a little sympathy for the yers who were fighting in this area; at the same time, he understood the difficulties that Nangong Lei experienced for almost four full waves.
If someone asked Xie Feng what kind of monsters he hated the most, he would not hesitate to say monsters with a strange attack pattern, monsters with skills capable of causing ’Bleeding’ effect, and snow and ice type monsters. Of these three types of monsters, the snow and ice type monsters were definitely the ones that Xie Feng hated the most.
The feeling of his bones freezing and not being able to move at will was something Xie Feng hated. Every time he tried to make a move that would normally be very simple but failed because his muscles were paralyzed by the cold, it frustrated him greatly. Even Xie Feng’s killing speed was slightly reduced due to the passive effect the Yetis possessed.
The worst part was when Xie Feng entered the central parts of the monster army and hundreds or thousands of Yetis concentrated on him. The feeling of hundreds and even thousands of cold auras surrounding him could not be described simply as ’cold’.
What was a pleasant surprise to Xie Feng was that, after facing the same type of monsters for so many hours in a row, the yers at the west gate were conducting a really great battle.
Rains of arrows fell from the sky and hit a few Yetis. Although most of the arrows lost the target with a measly ’Miss’, after being hit by so many arrows relentlessly, hundreds of Yetis fell to the ground helplessly.
Five shield guards locked a Yeti in the middle and constantly hit it with their shields, stunning the monster constantly. Two or three mages took the opportunity given by the shield guards and rained spells of fire and lightning on the helpless Yeti and after several seconds, the monster was killed without trouble.
<i>Bang!</i>
<i>Bang!</i>
Magic spells were constantly raining down on the monsters’ bodies and if they were lucky, a few dozen died per second.
Simr scenes could be found on all four battlefields.
Magical explosions, arrows whistling through the wind, swords and spears piercing the body of the monsters, shields hitting a monster hard and if the monster was unlucky it would be stunned, etc.
Of course, the monsters attacked relentlessly as well. ws, bites, kicks, headbutts, poison skills, earth, etc. The monsters attacked with everything they had with the sole intention of breaking through the wall of human defense that blocked their paths.
Thousands of yers and monsters died for each minute that passed.

-North Gate
After fighting for almost an hour without rest and with the death of more than 700,000 yers, the monsters had been almostpletely annihted; only several thousand remained before the yers could sessfullyplete the mission.
However, far from feeling relieved and happy, all they felt was despair.
<i><strong>ROAR!!!</strong></i>
A five meter tall creature roared ferociously as it stomped on the approaching yers. A single stomp caused over thirteen hundred yers to be sent flying and their health bars werepletely drained.
"For the sake of god..." Ultimate Arrow muttered as he looked at the giant beast causing chaos and bringing death everywhere it went.
If Xie Feng was here, he would undoubtedly be very surprised; because the five meter beast that was causing chaos was actually the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon that chased him for several minutes approximately five or six hours ago!
Although no one could get almost any information about the giant beast, all yers could get two pieces of information about the monster:
1) The monster’s name; Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon.
2) The grade of the beast; IMMORTAL!
When the yers present saw the grade, they almost fainted on the spot! They were confident that defeating a level 20 or 25 Emperor grade beast if they surrounded it all together, it was possible.
But, an Immortal grade beast was absolutely a big NO!
To defeat an Immortal monster required at least a few hundred thousand yers of the same level or even higher level than the monster. Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for them, being lower level yers, to have the slightest chance of victory against such a monster.
Yao Zenyu’s face turned pale as if he were a ghost while he heard the cries of the yers and saw the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon approaching the city step by step as if it were an unstoppable flood tide.
Although they knew they were going to die, the yers bravely threw their bodies forward with the intention of damaging the monster even a bit. However, no matter if it was the swords or the spears of the warriors, no matter if it was the magic spells of the wizards or the arrows of the archers; the result was the same.
-1... -1... -1... -1... Miss... -1... Miss... Miss...
<i>Bang!</i>
<i>BOOM!</i>
A tail swipe and a stomp were enough to clear the area around the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon; all the yers werepletely killed without exception.
Seeing this, Yao Mei had aplicated look in her eyes.
Honestly, Yao Mei did not feel confident. She had no confidence in defeating this monster. The main reason for this distrust stemmed from not being able to obtain crucial information about the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon. Like any human being, Yao Mei also felt worried about the unknown. But, she knew that in this case, there was no other option.
However, just as Yao Mei was about to step forward and try to stop the monster, a soft and heavenly voice echoed throughout the battlefield.
