Chapter 574. Reinforcement
Even though they had successfully killed a boss, the number of monsters flowing out of the portal door did not ebb. Sadly, the players’ killing speed was not as fast as the monster spawn rate. Hence, players had beginning to lose their advantage even though the monsters were bottleneck through the portal. Slowly, yet surely, the monster had gained the battle superiority and had pressured the players to the edge of retreat.
For better or worse, the monsters had made their way to the mountains and deeper into the lands. The player’s death rate had far exceeded the revival rate. Players who had just revived themselves were immediately torn to shreds.
The problem was the mammoths. Its powerful stomps were killing players who had just revived themselves. It was a complete bloodbath. Whenever a player revives, they would only start with 20% HP. It was not a mystery that they were instantly killed by the stomps of the mammoths.
They were losing.
"What should we do now?"
Everyone could see the sea of monsters that was coming from the horizon. The darkened sky that signified their doom was made worse when hundreds of giant figures emerged out of the horizon.
"Fall back. We kill them as we retreat," said Zhang Yang. "There’s nothing that we can do but buy some extra time with our lives. We should at least slow them down until they stop spawning. When that happens, it’s our time to strike hard."
"Easier said than done!"
Monsters were an issue. Several players could still manage to hold it up by a thin line. Even if the players were killed, at the very least, they could bring down many monsters with them. The bosses would be another issue.
