After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 479

Soon, they started to encounter monster mobs after monster mobs. If it weren’t for Juno, they’d definitely be massacred by the monsters.

Juno looked at them without speaking, but his actions told them everything.

His presence gave them time to adjust to the shock, giving them some time to think of ways to protect themselves.

Using whatever branch he could, he managed to defend some of them. Similarly, those who went with the lord were generally much braver than the others.

So, following Juno and Micheal, most of these people also took up their weapons—whatever they were, sharp branches, rocks, and others—to try and fight their way through the monsters.

Juno really tried his best, doing much of the work as necessary as twigs really wouldn’t be able to do much, but at least most weren’t burdens and they were able to defend themselves until he arrived to rescue them.

He continued to fight against the monsters, using skills as needed, getting a little injured along the way.

Luckily, the stronger mobs had been cleared out before the war that the mob was on the weaker side with the strongest being a level 6. Otherwise, they’d have no chance without their weapons at all.

As for how it was cleared, a lot of the strong monsters were killed when Garan’s team was with them. They also knew a lot of the hunting teams from Altera (and their own) had been weakening the mobs in the place, making the areas around Altera much safer than anywhere else.

After that, they’d only encounter monsters in the weaker spectrum, no stronger than level 6 monsters.

If other villages saw this, they would die in envy.

Losses were still inevitable without weapons, however, and for the next hour or so, they did lose a few people. However, for now, they could only fight through it, hoping no more would be lost.

At this time, they were fighting against a pair of level 7 monsters. Their cloths had been ripped and most of them had a lot of skin exposed. The only clothing intact were the undershirts Micheal, Juno, and Tom were wearing.

They bought the clothing from Altera’s clothing maker. Lenny’s products provided good defense and wouldn’t get destroyed by monsters easily, especially not such ’weak’ ones.

Nearby, Tom was also fighting hard, making sure Lily was protected. He was swiping a large branch, which really couldn’t handle a level 6 monster at all.

All it took was a little swipe and Tom was off fighting it bare-handed again. Although he had a higher level than the monster, its physique was far superior to him. When it swiped at him with its clawed hands and he raised his hand to block it—he heard his bones crack, adding to his many injuries.

"AHHHH!"

He felt intense pain in his body and he wanted to run away from this hopeless battle.

However, Lily was behind him, hiding in a shrub nearby. He was the only one in the team left to protect her, he would naturally use whatever he could to save her—even his own body.

ROARRR!!

The monster opened its mouth, preparing to eat him.

Using all his strength, he captured the monster’s mouth with his bare hands, keeping them open for a few seconds. They scuffled for a while and his hand was soon punctured by its sharp teeth.

He gritted his teeth as he kept it open to save his life. However, he could not foresee how its tail would move and it immediately tried to imbalance him.

Tom saw this and somehow managed to avoid it. However, the following movements were so swift and big that it ended up hitting the area where Lily was hiding.

"LILY!" He yelled and seeing the easier target the monster immediately shifted. Tom lunged and held its neck with its body, using all his strength to keep its mouth closed.

"RUN, LILY!"

The sobbing Lily could only cry, but she did not run. Instead, she carried rocks and threw whatever she could at the monster, trying to hit its weak spots.

Despite her age, her father, Artie, and the other uncles tried to train her to defend herself. She still knew to target weak spots, and with great accuracy.

He turned to look at the young dark-skinned man who emerged from the bushes. It was one of their newest hires. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}
