Facing the monster horde, Lin Huang activated his ultimate skill and summoned ten of his summoning monsters, including Bai, Charcoal, and nine others. It was his first time using his summoning authority to limit the number of summoning monsters he could summon.
In the ferocious Monster Horde, the Tyrant had returned to its giant form and was rampaging through the swarm of bugs like a giant tank. Although it was only on immortal-level rank-2, the immortal-level rank-3 and rank-4 bugs could not break through its defense at all. With just a simple swing, it could crush a large number of bugs into pieces.
Bai, who was not far away, had twelve blood-colored wings on his back that turned into sharp blades and thorns. Wherever the wings passed, the bug beasts were either sliced in half or had their brains pierced through. None of them could survive to the next second.
Bloody appeared on the battlefield in purple mist form. Hundreds of purple tentacles extended in all directions. As the tentacles pierced through the bug monsters, they were parasitized and began their journey of betrayal. If not for the Leech Pods being restricted by Bloody's combat strength, it could only parasitize immortal-level rank-2 and below. Perhaps the massive bug horde was not enough for Bloody to fight alone.
Charcoal had transformed into its original form that was thousands of meters long. Although it was forbidden to fly on the Stairway Tree and part of its ability was restricted, the power of its dragon flames was still the same. The black dragon flame swept out like a tsunami, turning all the insects and beasts in its path into ashes. Its killing efficiency was no lower than Tyrant's, which was in its humanoid tank form.
Kelly, who was in black armor, flapped the 12 black wings on her back slightly. She then shot out like a bolt of black lightning. There were more than 300 silver-armored soldiers who had the same combat strength as her behind her. They turned into bolts of silver lightning. In reality, Kelly and her army were affected by the flying ban as well. The illusion that they were flying was entirely due to their speed. Wherever she and her army passed, there was nothing left. They plowed through the bug horde and created a crisscrossing ravine.
Lancelot, who was dressed in dark red armor, led the nine sword servants and swept through the swarm. The power of the sword formation was fully supported by him. To increase the efficiency of killing, he used the Sword Dominator's Imperial Sword Manipulation skill. Hundreds of Life Power flying swords flew out of his body and pierced through the worms' bodies one after another.
Among the swarm, Grimace was the most unique. He hummed and danced leisurely in the swarm. Everywhere it passed, the swarm of insects fell into a state of chaos and started killing each other crazily. Under his illusion technique, not a single insect could escape unscathed. Sometimes, when he was excited, he would control an insect beast with each hand and play a puppet battle like a child. The entire battlefield had completely turned into his personal playground. All the Insect Beasts were merely toys for him to entertain himself with.
There were three other fiends that participated in the battle and they performed well.
The Malachian Fiend's defense was only slightly weaker than the Tyrant's. It was a heavy armor that rampaged through the swarm of bugs. The fiend summoned meteorites that fell directly, attacking the bugs in an indiscriminate range. The Witch, who looked like a human, performed the best. The shadows of all the bug beasts around her turned into living creatures. They entangled the bug beasts' bodies and broke their necks …
As soon as the army of ten summoning monsters appeared, the battlefield became a one-sided massacre.
Although the bug beasts were in a frenzied state and were much more powerful than before, they became helpless lambs under the suppression of Lin Huang's triple mutated summoning monster army.
The battle lasted for more than three hours. When it was almost four in the morning, all of the monsters on the tree branches were killed. All of them turned into pieces and disappeared. None of them were left.
After killing the fourth monster horde, Lin Huang recalled all ten of his summoning monsters. No matter if there was a fifth monster horde or not, he did not plan to continue the battle. The sky was about to turn bright. If he were to continue the battle, he might be seen by other people who had logged in.
He lowered his head and looked at his points. After a night of slaughter, his points had soared to more than eight million. What made Lin Huang speechless was that he saw his name on the leaderboard. He was ranked No. 2.
"No. 2: Lin Xie"
"Organization: Sweep Alliance"
"Points: 8211586"
"Current Checkpoint: Checkpoint 21"
"Ugh, it seems like I've been too high profile again …" Lin Huang did not expect that to happen. He only wanted to obtain more points to exchange for resources since there was no one else around. Never had he thought that he would rank No. 2 on the leaderboard. He was less than 300,000 points away from the person who ranked No. 1 and more than a million points away from the person who ranked No. 3.
He was slightly surprised, but he did not think too much about it and logged out of the Genius Union's virtual world directly. He planned to sleep for a few hours to recover so that he could continue climbing the stairway in the morning.
After logging out of the virtual world, Lin Huang took a shower and fell asleep at about 4.30 am
After sleeping for more than two hours, Lin Huang was woken up by the vibration of his Emperor's Heart Ring before it was even 7 am
He opened the WeChat page with sleepy eyes and saw that it was Yao Lan. He thought that she might be looking for him, so he picked up the video call request.
"Hey, Lin Xie, did you cheat yesterday?" Yao Lan asked directly as soon as she arrived.
"What do you mean by cheating?" Lin Huang was puzzled and asked while yawning.
"The Stairway Tree points. How did you get more than eight million points if you didn't cheat?" Yao Lan said matter-of-factly, "But you're really brave to get to No. 2 on the leaderboard. The entire Evil Alliance was in an uproar early in the morning. Almost everyone on the leaderboard was denouncing you, especially those in Divisions 1 and 2. I heard that many of them reported you and asked the Emperor's Heart to ban your account. I guess you're going to be removed from the Evil Alliance today … "
"Tsk tsk, why didn't you keep a low profile when you cheated? You wouldn't have caught anyone's attention if you obtained more than 100,000 to 200,000 points. However, you insisted on getting to No. 2 on the leaderboard. Now, it's your retribution. " Yao Lan then lowered her voice and said, "Since you're going to be removed from the leaderboard soon, why don't you tell me how you cheated so that I can obtain more than 100,000 to 200,000 points to improve my ranking?"
"Who told you that I cheated?" Lin Huang raised his eyebrow and asked.
"Who told me that? Now, everyone in the Evil Alliance knows that you cheated? You obtained eight million points overnight. Do you think everyone is an idiot? "Yao Lan rolled her eyes at Lin Huang.
"I obtained those points by killing monsters last night." Of course, what Lin Huang said was the truth.
"I can't even convince myself with your explanation. Eight million points. Even if you encounter an immortal-level rank-4 monster on the 21st checkpoint, you'll only get 80 points. You'll need to kill 100,000 of them to accumulate eight million points. Even if it's a berserk immortal-level rank-4 monster, you'll need to kill more than 50,000 of them. With your blue flame-level combat strength, I believe that you can kill one or two immortal-level rank-4 monsters. Why would you fight tens of thousands of immortal-level rank-4 monsters on your own?! I don't believe it! "
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. I'm telling the truth." Lin Huang did not bother to explain further. "Alright, I'm going to sleep now. I'll continue climbing the Stairway Tree after lunch."
