Night fell when it was around seven at night.
All of the monsters on the Stairway Tree seemed to have taken stimulants as they went into a frenzy to hunt for food.
All sorts of monsters swarmed out of the checkpoints where the monsters gathered, climbing towards the checkpoints where the humans gathered.
There were three checkpoints between checkpoints 55 and 63 with monsters. They were checkpoints 56, 58, and 61.
The Combat Hornetdemons occupied checkpoint 56. They had lethal venom and lived in large groups, making them difficult to deal with.
The Mutated Serpent occupied checkpoint 58.
This monster was a very special kind of snake monster. Almost all Mutant Snakes would undergo a genetic mutation when they were young, which made each Mutant Snake very different from the others of the same species. Some of them were huge, some of them could secrete venom, some of them were extremely fast, and some of them could control elemental energy … Even identical twins would become completely different after the mutation.
Meanwhile, the 61st checkpoint was occupied by a monster called the Luna Beast.
The Luna Beast was a monster with long ears. It looked like a rabbit, but it had red fur all over its body, fangs, and claws similar to that of a feline. The monster was usually two to three meters long. It had explosive power and speed, and it was extremely strong. It had a strong defense and was very good at close combat. It could also absorb moonlight and enter a berserk state, increasing its combat strength by a few times.
None of the three monsters were easy to deal with, but Lin Huang still chose to fight the monster horde.
As Lin Huang brought Bloody and the rest back to the Secret Forest on checkpoint 55, waiting for the arrival of the monster horde, the people at the gathering point on checkpoint 55 began to have a heated discussion as they could still see Lin Huang's name on the leaderboard.
"The sky has turned dark, and the monster horde is coming soon. Why hasn't Lin Xie logged out yet?"
"According to the increase in points, he should be on checkpoint 56. He hasn't returned to the gathering point yet. Could it be that he's going to fight the monster horde alone?"
"This guy must be cheating. Otherwise, why didn't he come back and fight the monster horde with us? He's afraid that we'll see him cheating! "
Soon, the people from the Heaven Alliance noticed that something was wrong.
"What's Lin Xie doing? The monster horde is coming soon, but he's still collecting points? "
"It's possible that he's surrounded by the swarm of bees and can't escape."
"If he dies, it'll be a huge loss. We'll lose half of our 200 million points."
In the Secret Forest on the 55th checkpoint of the Stairway Tree, there were too many places for Lin Huang and the rest to hide when all the foreign creatures had shrunk to one-thousandth of their original size. A blade of grass, a flower, or even a crack in the bark of a tree could be used as a hiding place, which made hunting a lot easier.
At that moment, Lin Huang, Bloody, and the rest were hiding in a gap between the tree bark, waiting patiently for the monster horde to begin.
When it was almost 7: 20 pm, the sky finally darkened completely. Lin Huang knew that the beast tide was coming.
After about half an hour, Lin Huang and the others heard a buzzing sound coming from afar. The sound was getting closer and closer.
"It's a horde of Combat Hornetdemons. It seems like they've shrunk and separated from the original monster horde. There aren't many of them, less than 50,000 of them. I guess they're from the same horde." Lin Huang could clearly see what was happening a few kilometers away with his Divine Telekinesis. "There aren't any other monster horde within the range of my detection. However, we have to be fast. I think the monster horde behind us will catch up soon."
"Get ready for battle. Don't hold back in this battle. Try to kill the enemies as fast as possible. After killing this horde of hornets, immediately move to another hiding place. "
Bloody had discussed with Lin Huang earlier that it was unrealistic to fight a monster horde of tens of millions of monsters. Therefore, their plan was to use the terrain of the Secret Forest as a guerrilla tactic. They would change their hiding place after every shot and not fight with the monster horde.
"I'll keep an eye on the surroundings. If there are other monster horde approaching, I'll judge whether they're a threat to us. If I judge that they're a threat, I'll recall all of you into card form regardless of whether the horde of hornets has been killed or not. Then, I'll leave the battlefield as soon as possible. The same goes for the battle after that. "This was the strategy that Lin Huang had discussed with Bloody through voice transmission.
Of course, Bai and the rest had no objections. They knew very well that their abilities were far from enough to fight the monster horde.
Soon, the horde of hornets entered Lin Huang and the rest's field of vision.
"Attack!"
As Bloody ordered, Bai and the rest dashed out from the gaps in the tree bark and charged towards the horde of hornets.
Charcoal had returned to its normal size. Even though it had shrunk to one-thousandth of its original size, its four-meter-long body was comparable to a giant monster.
As it opened its mouth, black dragon flames gushed out like a tsunami. The horde of hornets fled in all directions.
Dragon flames were not something that could be extinguished easily once one touched it. Moreover, Charcoal was a high-level dragonkin. Almost nobody below imperial-level dared to fight it head-on. Even the chief of the Heaven Alliance, Chan Dou, would not dare to touch it.
Lancelot's Sword Manipulation was fully activated. Thousands of black swords flew through the hornet hornets with a powerful sword aura like fishes swimming in the water. If not for the fact that his combat strength was only on immortal-level rank-4 and his ability was limited, he might be able to kill the horde of hornets on his own.
In comparison, Bai's killing was like an artistic performance. There were no unnecessary movements at all. Each time he moved, a few of the Combat Hornetdemons would be sliced into half. He did not need a second attack. Although his combat strength was only on immortal-level rank-4, he could kill the immortal-level rank-9 Combat Hornetdemons as easily as chopping vegetables.
Grimace was the most relaxed. He walked among the horde of hornets as if he was taking a stroll in the park. All of the Combat Hornetdemons were in chaos wherever he passed by. Not only did they ignore Grimace, but they also attacked the other hornets around them as if they were their mortal enemies.
Bai and the rest were not the only ones who participated in the battle. To kill the horde of hornets as soon as possible, even Lin Huang joined the battle.
Three sets of supreme telekinetic weapons and thousands of telekinetic flying daggers shot out at the same time. Under the control of his Divine Telekinesis, they pierced through the Combat Hornetdemons' bodies one after another.
Without using the Transformation Card to enhance his combat strength, Lin Huang could not control the ancient-level telekinetic weapons. Although the power of the flying daggers was much weaker, it was still a piece of cake for him to kill immortal-level rank-7 and rank-8 monsters. Even if he could not kill an immortal-level rank-9 monster in one hit, he could injure it severely and make things easier for Kelly and the rest.
The battle lasted for 20 minutes before it came to an end. However, before the horde of hornets was completely wiped out, Lin Huang suddenly lifted his head and frowned as he looked at the edge of the forest.
"Luna Beast?!"
