Chapter 345: Chapter 326: Resisting the Demon
In the plaza of Tang Family Castle, the entire area was almost entirely filled with a dark mass of Six-eyed Demon Spiders.
Lin Yi’s group attack skills fell and killed a whole section instantly.
But even so, the area that was wiped out would quickly be filled again by Six-eyed Demon Spiders.
No matter how Lin Yi kept switching between two group attack magic skills, the Six-eyed Demon Spiders showed no sign of stopping.
It was truly fighting until you were exhausted, yet still facing an endless sea of Six-eyed Demon Spiders.
If someone has a phobia of dense objects, seeing those hairy ’long legs’ crammed together could make them faint at a glance.
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted:
"Heal me, I’m dying!"
The speaker was a Shield Warrior standing at the front, and his health was below 20% and dropping continuously.
But anxious voices responded from the back:
"It’s too late, my skill is on cooldown."
"Me too, I don’t have skills now."
Seeing his impending demise, the player shouted hurriedly:
"Someone from the back, get ready to step up."
The Shield Warrior behind him said grimly:
"Ready."
Just as he finished speaking, the player at the front was instantly defeated, disappearing from view (there is a 180-second wait time for resurrection after death).
As the Six-eyed Demon Spiders began to pour through the gap, the player activated the skill immediately:
"Charge!"
The two Six-eyed Demon Spiders that had entered the gap were instantly repelled.
However, at this moment, perhaps due to the butterfly effect.
As the first player fell, more Shield Warriors in the back were also running low on health:
"I can’t hold on either, someone in the back be ready."
"Don’t worry, I’ll replace you."
"Alright!"
The number of Priests was just too few — they couldn’t possibly keep up with the healing for so many at once.
Watching Shield Warriors fall one after another, Lin Yi frowned from mid-air:
"This won’t do."
Only five minutes had passed since the event started, and less than a tenth of the first wave of demon attacks had passed.
Though everything seemed to be going according to plan without major mishaps.
As time went on, the disadvantage of fewer numbers would magnify greatly.
If the team collapsed, it would be difficult to recover with this few people.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi had to change his strategy:
"Like this!"
The Elf Dragon suddenly let out a huge Dragon’s Roar in the air before its enormous body landed in the plaza:
With a colossal "boom," the Elf Dragon heavily crashed into the ground, causing the earth to shake.
Just the landing of the Elf Dragon was enough to crush a swath of Six-eyed Demon Spiders.
Seeing this, everyone was puzzled:
"What’s going on?"
Lin Yi quickly provided an answer, as the Elf Dragon directly moved to the front of the team, acting as a ’human wall,’ and swept away the Six-eyed Demon Spiders before it with a breath.
The players around it saw this and their spirits were lifted:
"This beast is unreal!"
Previously in the sky, it didn’t seem too impressive, but now standing beside them, it felt like a towering two-story building — visually overwhelming.
Lin Yi shouted to the players behind the Elf Dragon:
"Leave this area to the Elf Dragon, go support other places."
The players immediately understood Lin Yi’s meaning, overjoyed:
"Feng Hua is awesome."
"Elf Dragon is awesome."
With the Elf Dragon’s current level 36 defense and powerful Dragon Race passive, these level 27 Six-eyed Demon Spiders were no threat to it.
The damage from the Six-eyed Demon Spiders on it felt like mere tickling, while the Elf Dragon’s Dragon breath could instantly wipe a swath.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi called back the frenzied Golden Behemoth and Jade Qilin, letting them replace the players to guard a position.
With the defense of these two beasts, handling these small creatures was more than enough.
The Elf Dragon alone occupied a position that required about seven or eight people to defend, and the Golden Behemoth and Jade Qilin combined occupied at least ten people’s positions.
With the addition of the three beasts, the pressure on Tang Family Castle’s side reduced instantly, and everyone cheered together:
"Feng Hua is awesome," and similar praises.
Seeing the excitement of everyone, Lin Yi also smiled knowingly.
Though Lin Yi initially didn’t mind, because from the moment Lin Yi decided to take action, the situation had already been within expectations.
But now, Lin Yi’s only concern was whether these people could endure a high-intensity 12-hour combat.
After all, the disadvantage of having fewer people was present, and no one could replace them for breaks.
If three-fourths of them couldn’t endure and logged out, the outcome would be uncertain.
Once everyone became familiar with the pace, an hour passed quickly.
As the Six-eyed Demon Spiders retreated just as they came, the players at Tang Family Castle deflated like punctured balls, slumping to the ground.
Although the long-term high-intensity battles didn’t cause physical discomfort, the mental strain was significant.
Landing on the ground, Lin Yi looked at the players who fell all over and loudly encouraged:
"Well done, just keep this up."
Although these people appeared exhausted, you could see unspeakable excitement and joy on their faces.
Because they truly achieved it!
The first wave passed, their territory was unharmed!
Just this alone was enough for them to feel proud.
After all, there were only over five hundred of them!
Tang Aotian also came up expressing:
"We have to thank your help, otherwise with that situation, we probably couldn’t hold out even through the first wave."
At this, Tang Aotian felt elated:
"I can’t wait to see the expression of the Goryeo guys when they’re proven wrong."
Lin Yi smiled:
"Don’t get too excited, there are still 11 hours to go."
While they were thrilled about surviving the first wave, the forum in the Goryeo War Zone had already erupted.
"What the heck! They actually survived the first wave? How could this be possible."
"Who said they couldn’t survive the first wave? The guy got proven wrong, haha~"
"Impressive, how did they survive?"
"Aren’t there just a few hundred of them? How did they survive the first wave, very curious, seeking leaked video."
"Same request."
...
At the bottom of the official forum, the status of each Main City and territories registered for the event was displayed.
Those with red names were cities and territories that had failed to defend and ended the event prematurely.
While cities and territories with green names were the opposite.
The contentious topic on the forum was Tang Family Castle’s name showing as green.
This meant that the guild’s territory successfully resisted the first wave of demon attacks.
While this sparked discussion on the forum, only a few might have guessed it might be because of the involvement of someone specific.
Yet, no matter the uproar on the forum, no information about Tang Family Castle leaked out.
And now, all the castle territories in the game were in a closed state, preventing outsiders from entering.
This made the situation inside Tang Family Castle a mysterious topic among the Goryeo players.
Ten minutes of rest passed quickly, and the second wave of demons was about to attack.
Lin Yi clapped his hands and said:
"Everyone, get in high spirits, do as before, get ready."
This time, Lin Yi didn’t sit on the Nightmare, but stood at the front of the team, side by side with the Shield Warriors, and spoke under their doubtful gazes:
"This time, I’ll fight alongside you."
