Out of avarice, despite having identified Zhou Tian's identity and feeling some apprehension towards his tactics, the players eventually decided to take a gamble. Hence, right after Zhou Tian killed the spell-casting player, the other players immediately broke ranks towards Zhou Tian's position.
In the face of these players' attacks, Zhou Tian, aside from commanding his Beastmen to resist fiercely, could only constantly urge the distant Beastman army to speed up.
The guards Zhou Tian had next to him were not the most formidable creatures under his command but were strong enough such that defending Zhou Tian from powerful adversaries shouldn't be a problem. However, because the players who came to confront him this time were transferred from the higher regions, where the combat power is of a completely different caliber, other than Zhou Tian using his own abilities to covertly kill a mage at the outset, his Beastman minions did not see any battle success subsequently.
