As the monster horde came one after another, most of them started to feel tired.
It was three or four in the morning and the monster horde had lasted for close to 20 hours. Lin Huang could feel that he was exhausted. If not for his passive skill, Robust, he might not even have the strength to swing his sword.
Although the rest of the teenagers were in a better condition than Lin Huang, they did not look too good.
Lin Huang had no idea how many monsters he and Bai had killed. The Life Light in his Life Wheel was almost full. 357 columns were filled with white Life Light and there were only three gray columns left in his Life Wheel.
"Xiao Hei, cut off the Life Light transmission between me and Bai temporarily!" Lin Huang instructed Xiao Hei.
"You are requesting to cut off the Life Wheel synchronization with Bai temporarily. The connection has been cut off!"
Xiao Hei quickly carried out Lin Huang's request.
The reason why the connection had to be cut off was that if Bai continued to transmit Life Light, Lin Huang's Life Wheel would soon be full.
Once the Life Wheel was filled with 360 columns of Life Light, Lin Huang would be baptized by the monster's Life Light when he killed an iron-level monster and leveled up to iron-level.
However, leveling up to iron-level would be accompanied by obtaining the first Life Seed. The Life Seed could strengthen one's innate talent and potential in certain areas. Therefore, everyone had to be careful with their choices.
The Life Seed could be categorized into five types: Elemental, Enhancement, Spiritual, Psychic, and Compound.
Lin Huang had already decided on the type of Life Seed that he wanted. It was an enhancement sword type. Such a type of Life Seed could only be obtained by killing monsters that used swords.
However, there were no such monsters in the monster horde. Therefore, Lin Huang could only choose not to level up to iron-level for the time being.
It was six in the morning and the sun rose from the horizon.
"Pfft!" Lin Huang chopped off a monster's head. He was panting as he looked at the direction of the sunrise.
"The sun is finally out …"
In these two hours, almost every minute and second was torture for him. Without leveling up to iron-level, even if Lin Huang had the support of his passive skill Robust, his stamina would not be comparable to other iron-level rank-3 youths. Now, every time he swung his saber, he began to feel a little strenuous.
"Lin Huang, are you okay?" Lin Huang's deteriorating condition quickly attracted the attention of Zhou Le and the others.
"It shouldn't be a big problem in the short term, but if this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it." Lin Huang voiced his concern. He estimated that he could hold on for another two hours at most.
"Why don't you rest for a while? We'll hold the fort here," Zhou Le suggested, even though he knew that without Lin Huang, the pressure on his group would multiply.
"It's useless for me to rest. At most, I can hold on for a few more hours. It's not just me. Everyone's stamina is severely depleted. Sooner or later, the defensive layer will collapse. " Lin Huang shook his head and looked at the gap in the canyon. "We have to solve the root of the problem!"
"What's the root of the problem?" Zhou Le immediately asked.
"The root of the problem is that there are too many monsters. We only have a limited number of people and our stamina is limited. The solution to this problem is actually very simple. We just need to reduce the number of monsters and reduce the distance between the entrances of the canyon, "Lin Huang explained.
"However, we can't move the giant rocks to the entrance of the canyon. Each of the giant rocks is the size of a hill. No one's storage space can store them. We had to rely on the people in the foothold to move them. Even with the help of tools, it would take hundreds of people to move the giant rocks to the entrance of the canyon. However, the battle is so intense that the people can't move the rocks. They'll become the monsters' targets as soon as they enter the battlefield. " Although Lin Huang had found the root of the problem, he could not think of a solution.
"If we're just blocking the entrance of the canyon, we don't need the giant rocks, do we? Can't we just pile up the carcasses at the entrance of the canyon to block it? Most of the monsters' carcasses have strong defense. We can just pile them up. "Zhou Le casually asked.
Hearing what Zhou Le said, Lin Huang was stunned. He then laughed. "I can't believe I didn't think of that!"
As soon as he said that, Lin Huang sent the plan to Yi Yeyu.
After a while, Yi Yeyu looked at the message that Lin Huang had sent. She was stunned at first but soon, she was overjoyed. She immediately forwarded the message to Yi Zheng. Yi Zheng was elated after reading the message. He immediately sent a message to the few Gold Hunters and started to collect the carcasses.
Soon, the mountain of carcasses was made into a defensive layer. They even poured oil on it to prevent the monsters from climbing up.
As the carcasses piled up, the entrance of the canyon became smaller. When it was almost noon, the entrance of the canyon had shrunk to about 300 meters that Lin Huang had expected.
The pressure on them was obviously reduced.
The third layer of defense that Lin Huang and the rest were at had changed from a monster wave every few minutes to a monster wave every half an hour. Even the Silver Hunters at the second layer of defense were much more relaxed.
Yi Zheng stood on the giant rock and gave Lin Huang a thumbs up from afar.
Lin Huang pointed at Zhou Le who was next to him and sent a message to Yi Yeyu to explain that it was Zhou Le who came up with the idea.
The next afternoon, everyone was much more relaxed. They even had time to eat some food to replenish their energy.
Seeing that the sun was gradually covered by the snow, Yi Yeyu prayed in her heart. She hoped that nothing would go wrong tonight. She also hoped that the Transcendent human would arrive in time to kill the Transcendent monster and end the monster horde once and for all.
When it was past six in the evening, the sky was getting dark. The roars of the monsters outside the canyon were getting louder.
Yi Zheng stood on the giant rock and looked far away. Looking at the hundreds of thousands of monsters, he was about to say something when his Emperor's Heart Ring vibrated.
Lin Huang and the rest's Emperor's Heart Rings vibrated at the same time.
Since he was not busy, Lin Huang opened his Emperor's Heart Ring.
A piece of news popped up on the page.
"Since 8 am yesterday, a berserk monster horde broke out in the eastern region of Division7. The monster horde affected a wide area. Three small footholds, No.7D120, No.7D122 and No.7D123 have been confirmed to be destroyed. No one survived and the death toll has reached 670,000. The situation at No.7D121 foothold is unknown. There are Transcendent humans rushing over. We will update you when we get the exact information … "
Seeing this news, many people's originally relaxed expressions became a little ugly.
"This is bad …"
