Although Zhou Le and the rest were excited to replace Lu Yang as part of the third line of defense, they could feel the pressure.
Lin Huang knew that it was for real this time. He had become a part of the battle, just like a small piece of a jigsaw puzzle. The battle was like a jigsaw puzzle. If there was a problem with any of the pieces, the jigsaw puzzle would not be completed and the battle would be lost.
Lin Huang could not care less about whether the others would make mistakes or not. It was not within his control. However, he knew that since he was in this position, he had to ensure that there would be no problems.
Since the next wave of monsters had yet to arrive, Lin Huang emphasized the importance of following orders to the rest.
Zhou Le and the rest nodded in agreement. They knew the severity of the situation and did not dare to be negligent.
After some instructions, Lin Huang then looked at the Rare Skill Card that he had obtained from the cross-ranking kill.
It was a green card with a big question mark on the front. Other than that, there was nothing else.
There was a paragraph of text on the back of the card.
"Random Skill Card (Rare): You will obtain a random Rare Skill Card after use."
"Remarks: This card is a Consumable Card and can only be used once."
"This card came at the right time. It will give me an additional skill. I wonder what kind of skill it will be …"
Until now, Lin Huang only had three skills. One was the sword skill from "The Great Sword Scripture", another was the skill "Strengthen" that he obtained from Tyrant and the last one was "Blood Power" that he obtained from Bai.
In reality, "Strengthen" was a passive skill. Lin Huang could not activate "Blood Power" at all. The only skill that he could actively use was "The Great Sword Scripture". Fortunately, this set of sword skill was quite powerful as it allowed him to unleash his combat power to the maximum.
Now that he had an additional skill, Lin Huang was happy to use it even though he did not know what kind of skill it would be. Feeling anxious, Lin Huang communicated with Xiao Hei in his mind, "Xiao Hei, I want to use this Random Skill Card."
"Are you sure you want to use Random Skill Card (Rare)?"
"Yes!"
As the thought flashed through Lin Huang's mind, the question mark on the front of the card began to rapidly jump out with different pictures. The pictures flickered rapidly, causing Lin Huang to feel a little dizzy.
About ten seconds later, the flashing pattern suddenly froze, and the entire card was enveloped in a layer of white light. After a while, the white light dissipated, revealing a new card.
[Congratulations, you've obtained a movement skill — Spectral Snowsteps.]
Hearing that he had obtained a movement skill, Lin Huang was overjoyed. Previously, he had been considering choosing a better movement skill to practice after he returned alive to complement his saber skills. He did not expect to randomly draw it this time.
He immediately checked the new Skill Card.
On the front of the card was a pair of feet stepping on a patch of snow, but the snow did not show any signs of sinking.
Lin Huang flipped to the back of the card and looked at the details of the card.
[Skill Card]
[Skill Name: Spectral Snowsteps]
[Rarity: Rare]
[Skill Type: Body Movement]
"Skill Level: Gold Level Body Movement"
"Status: Available"
"Remarks: This skill is a special body movement skill. There is no level restriction and the effect changes according to the user's ability."
"Card Remarks: Average"
"What a great skill!" Lin Huang was overjoyed as he looked at the card. There was no level restriction for this body movement skill. He was worried that he would need Life Power to activate it.
He then checked his Personal Exclusive Card, and sure enough, there was an additional skill.
"Host: Lin Huang"
"Gender: Male"
"Age: 15"
"Combat Level: None (Exceeded assessment limit)"
"Skill 1: Blood Power (Level-2)"
"Skill 2: Great Sword Scripture (Sword Skill)"
"Skill 3: Robust (Beginner)"
"Skill 4: Spectral Snowsteps (Body Movement)"
"Summon Authority: Activated"
"Available Number of Summons: 1"
"Remarks: Still too weak …"
Glancing at the last comment from Xiao Hei, Lin Huang ignored it again.
Happy that there was an additional movement skill, Lin Huang shifted his attention away from his body. At this moment, everyone was on standby, and no one noticed his abnormality.
Soon, a wave of monsters broke through the second line of defense and headed towards the third line of defense.
It was a group of Ox Devils and there were not many of them. It did not take Lin Huang and the rest much effort to kill all of them.
In the morning, which was about four hours, Lin Huang and the rest had been attacked 11 times in the third line of defense. It did not take much effort for them to get through. In the afternoon, over six hours, their third line of defense had been attacked 22 times. Lin Huang could feel that the density of the monster horde had increased.
Of course, Lin Huang was not the only one who noticed it. Yi Yeyu and the rest noticed it as well. They were worried as it was not a good sign.
When the sky turned dark, the monster horde became more agitated. Nobody knew if it was because the sun had set or the transcendent monster that had bewitched the monsters was urging them.
From six o 'clock in the afternoon to twelve o' clock at night, Lin Huang and the rest could feel the increased pressure in the six hours. Because in the short span of six hours, they had been attacked forty-six times. Although they felt the pressure, they did not complain. They knew that the Gold and Silver Hunters in front of them were having a harder time than them.
Yi Yeyu had been paying attention to Lin Huang's situation. She was worried that Lin Huang and the rest could not handle it. However, Lin Huang and the rest had proven their strength time and time again.
Yi Yeyu had been paying attention to Lin Huang's situation. She was worried that they would not be able to hold on, but they had proven their abilities time and time again. Initially, the Bronze Hunters around Lin Huang and the rest did not have high hopes for them. They were worried that they would be a burden.
The few Bronze Hunters next to Lin Huang and the rest did not have high hopes for them at first. They were worried that they would drag the team down. Under Lin Huang's leadership and command, the group of young men did not have high hopes for them. They were worried that they would be a burden.
Under Lin Huang's leadership and command, the group of young men worked together in an orderly manner. Although they would panic when there were many monsters, Lin Huang and Bai would quickly solve the problem.
Lin Huang's performance had attracted many people's attention. Although he had not even reached iron-level, he had shown that he was stronger than an iron-level. Even some of the iron-level rank-3 monsters could not take more than five hits from his sword before they were killed.
Bai's performance was outstanding as well. Aside from monsters with strong defense, he could basically kill all of his opponents in one hit.
It was precisely because of these two that this team of twelve had been able to come this far without any mishaps.
Soon, it was midnight. However, it was not as peaceful as usual. It could even be said that it was the noisiest midnight that Lin Huang had ever had since he was on Earth.
There were angry roars of monsters and screams of humans everywhere. Occasionally, they could even hear the sound of guns being fired …
During the second half of the night, the monsters became more aggressive.
The third layer of defense was broken through a few times. Fortunately, Yi Yeyu and Yi Zheng arrived in time and saved the day.
However, everyone's heart sank. Based on the current situation, the collapse of the third layer of defense was inevitable. It was just a matter of time …
