The Heaven Alliance's strategy for clearing checkpoint 56 of the Stairway Tree was only one sentence: Break through in one go!
The reason why the strategy was so simple and brutal was that there were too many hornets on this checkpoint. There was a hornet nest less than 1,000 meters away from each other (in different directions). Almost all of the hornets' territories overlapped with each other, so there was no safe route to avoid the Combat Hornetdemons. Therefore, breaking through in a straight line could reduce the number of encounters with the Combat Hornetdemons to the greatest extent.
However, Lin Huang's purpose was not to break through the checkpoint but to accumulate points.
At the moment, he was in a tough battle because of this goal that was different from ordinary people.
"Bloody, the first wave of reinforcements is here. There are eight hornets from the hornets that are involved in the rescue. There are at least 2,000 hornets among the eight teams of reinforcements, and there are at most 4,000 hornets. "Lin Huang told Bloody what he observed with his Divine Telekinesis.
In less than a minute after Bai and the rest started clearing the first hornet nest, the other hornets nearby noticed the battle and immediately sent their teams to support them.
In reality, Lin Huang was not surprised as he already knew about the Combat Hornetdemons' habits.
On checkpoint 56 of the Stairway Tree, all the Combat Hornetdemons were descendants of the same hornet queen. Although they lived in different hornets' nests, they were not divided by the hornet nest that they were in. Instead, they were divided by the entire hornet colony. As soon as they noticed that a hornet nest nearby was being attacked, they would send out reinforcements to help defend against the enemy.
In the beginning, the hornet nest would only send a small team of reinforcements, which was equivalent to one-tenth of the hornet colony.
As soon as the first wave of reinforcements failed to help the hornet nest that was being attacked, the second wave of reinforcements from the Combat Hornetdemons would be sent out. Apart from leaving about 10% of the hornets to guard their own hornet nest, the rest of the Combat Hornetdemons would join in the rescue and kill the invaders.
Clearly, they knew very well that the teeth would be interdependent if the lips were gone. As soon as the hornet nests near their own nest were being attacked, it meant that their own nest would be attacked soon.
Therefore, before their own nest was attacked, they would send out reinforcements to kill the invaders and kill the threat in the cradle. It was a foresight.
Unfortunately, the Swarm of Bees had encountered Lin Huang's group this time.
"Grimace, your mission is to create chaos. Activate a large-scale illusion and wander around the battlefield. Try your best to trap as many Combat Hornetdemons as possible."
"Lancelot, use the Sword Manipulation Technique to deal damage in a large area. You don't need to kill with every attack, but you can deal heavy damage."
"Kelly, you're the fastest. Cooperate with Lancelot to finish off those Combat Hornetdemons that were heavily injured by Lancelot's Sword Control Art."
…
Under Bloody's command, Bai and the rest started a one-sided massacre.
Lin Huang's Stairway Tree points began to rise rapidly.
When he was at the top of the annual point leaderboard, he had more than 24 million points. After entering the Secret Forest and encountering the first Beehive, he had more than 60 million points in just half an hour.
And now, the rate of increase was even more terrifying.
60 million, 70 million, 80 million …
When the sky was turning dark, Lin Huang's points had exceeded 200 million.
The unprecedented increase in points immediately caused a heated discussion among the members who were online on the Stairway Tree. There were all sorts of comments.
"His points have increased by more than 200 million within a day. Is the Stairway Tree system malfunctioning?!"
"If it's not the system malfunctioning, then Lin Xie must have a way to cheat the Stairway Tree system!"
"I strongly condemn Lin Xie's cheating. Such behavior has seriously disrupted the order of the Stairway Tree and destroyed the fairness and justice of the Stairway Tree ranking. He's trampling on everyone's hard work. What I'd like to say is, please count me in! "
Only a minority of them believed that Lin Huang had obtained the points with his own ability.
"The highest combat strength of the monsters on the 21st checkpoint is immortal-level rank-4. One of them is only worth 80 points, but Lin Xie managed to obtain eight million points in a night. On the 56th checkpoint, the lowest combat strength of an immortal-level rank-7 monster is worth 640 points while an immortal-level rank-9 monster is worth 2,560 points. It's not impossible for him to obtain 200 million points in a day. "
"If someone else were to obtain 200 million points in a day, I'd definitely think that he's cheating. However, Lin Xie might have obtained the points with his own ability. He's too evil. "
Lin Huang had no idea about what they were saying as he was busy fighting the Combat Hornetdemons.
Most of them did not believe that Lin Huang did not cheat as even Chan Dou and the rest would have to avoid the Combat Hornetdemons.
There were at least 20,000 Combat Hornetdemons in a regular hive. Although Chan Dou was powerful, he did not have the physique of Tyrant and the rest. He was not immune to poison like Kelly either. He could only fight 2,000 to 3,000 Combat Hornetdemons at the same time. If he were to fight more, he would most likely die. It was impossible for him to kill hundreds of thousands of Combat Hornetdemons in a single afternoon.
The reason why Lin Huang was able to kill the Combat Hornetdemons with only ten of his summoning monsters was that he had chosen monster cards that could suppress the Combat Hornetdemons to a certain extent. In addition to Bloody's coordination, Bai and the rest's division of labor and cooperation were almost perfect. That was why they could move freely among the Combat Hornetdemons.
If Lin Huang was alone, he would definitely not be able to obtain points like that.
When it was almost 6.30 p.m., the sky began to darken.
"It's getting dark. It's time for the monsters on the Stairway Tree to hunt for food," Bloody said to Lin Huang through voice transmission. "If we want to continue to obtain points, we won't only be facing the Combat Hornetdemons. There are two other types of monsters that are even more powerful. By then, we won't be facing a monster horde of this scale, but a monster horde consisting of tens of millions of monsters. "
The Stairway Tree would become a paradise for monsters when the sky turned dark. Monsters from checkpoint 55 to checkpoint 63 would gather on checkpoint 55, where humans gathered.
"My suggestion is to stop for now and continue tomorrow," Bloody added.
Lin Huang frowned and thought for a moment. Soon, he made a decision. "The auction will start three days later. I'll have to receive Yi Zheng tomorrow, so I don't have much time during the day. If we give up on the monster horde every night, we'll only be able to obtain points the day after tomorrow … "
