The area of Black Dragon Castle was not large.
In fact, even after the players expanded it, the entire castle was less than forty thousand square meters, and the length of the walls was just about nine hundred meters.
The six thousand players defending the castle stood crowded on the walls.
In actuality, it was precisely the players' overcrowding that allowed the Half-Beast's spears and arrows to cause considerable harm to them.
Upon discovering this issue, the players hurriedly changed their strategy. Under the calls of Li Mu and Transforming Ji Gang, they dispersed some of the troops, allowing the wounded to retreat, rotate, rest, and defend the walls in phases.
At the start of the siege, the players lacked experience and were somewhat flustered, so they were suppressed by the Half-Beast's spear throwers and archers.
Meanwhile, the Half-Beast Army advanced steadily into the rain of arrows from the players.
