Chapter 1 The Impasse

On the thorny walls, each of the monster girls stood in position, in groups of two or three.

This was truly something Lin En had never expected. Although he knew his Aunt Hilliria had cultivated monster girls, he never imagined there would be so many.

Moreover, these monster girls were quite strong. Most had reached the fifth rank, and a few were even at the sixth rank. The monster girl Xiao Na was one of the sixth-rankers.

Lin En looked at the group of beautiful, cute, and enchanting monster girls. If even one of them were harmed, would Aunt Hilliria come after him?

The countdown timer in the sky was almost at zero. Lin En's heart rose with it. A thousand fifth-rank ferocious beasts were nothing, but those hundred sixth-rank ferocious beasts would be difficult to handle. Moreover, he didn't know their attributes; it was unlikely they were all newly ascended to the sixth rank.

With one minute left on the countdown timer, over a hundred fourth-rank monsters emerged from the monster space. It seemed to be Aunt Hilliria's arrangement. They also went to the thorny walls to prepare for defense.

Finally, as the last second ticked down to zero, ferocious beasts began to appear around the dungeon, roaring incessantly.

There were actually several different kinds of ferocious beasts. Lin En identified them one by one.

Fifth-rank Ferocious Beast: Explosive Lazy Bear

Fifth-rank Ferocious Beast: Carnivorous Little Lamb

Fifth-rank Ferocious Beast: Lesser Chimera

Fifth-rank Ferocious Beast: Blood-Spike Fish Demon (now flopping around on the ground, completely harmless)

Hmm? Strange, where were the sixth-rank ferocious beasts? He couldn't see a single one.

Lin En ran along the thorny wall, but still didn't see a single sixth-rank ferocious beast. Strange, where did they go?

Ugh~, the fifth-rank ferocious beasts were already at the thorny wall. Except for that fish demon, which was still flopping around in place. Without water, it seemed it could only wait there. https:/

As soon as the ferocious beasts arrived, they began attacking the tall thorny wall. Each attack caused damage; thorny vines were either broken, burned, or destroyed by other attribute attacks.

The monster girls and monsters also began attacking the ferocious beasts. With the monsters' attacks, the ferocious beasts began to suffer heavy losses.

Of the thousand fifth-rank ferocious beasts, minus the two hundred or so fish demons, over a hundred had already fallen.

As the number of ferocious beasts dwindled, Lin En still hadn't found even one sixth-rank ferocious beast. Was this situation going to drop a big one on him?

Lin En turned around again. The fifth-rank ferocious beasts had already fallen to less than half. He felt that once the number of fifth-rank ferocious beasts fell below half, the hundred sixth-rank ferocious beasts would appear.

Lin En and the sixth-rank monster girls were watching, all waiting for the appearance of the sixth-rank ferocious beasts.

Finally, the number of fifth-rank ferocious beasts fell below half, and Lin En finally saw the sixth-rank ferocious beasts appear.

Roars sounded, and the fifth-rank ferocious beasts quickly retreated from the thorny wall, each running to the side of a sixth-rank ferocious beast.

As soon as Lin En saw the sixth-rank ferocious beasts appear, he immediately identified them.

Sixth-rank Ferocious Beast: Nethersea Scale Python, Attributes 800-1100, 20 of them.

Sixth-rank Ferocious Beast: Beautiful Horse, Attributes 850-1150, 20 of them.

Sixth-rank Ferocious Beast: Flying Giant Goose, Attributes 900-1300, 30 of them.

Sixth-rank Ferocious Beast: Giant Armor Mantis, Attributes 1100-1350, 30 of them.

…

Why were there more of the stronger ferocious beasts?, Lin En complained, looking at the Flying Giant Geese and Giant Armor Mantises.

Looking at the full hundred sixth-rank ferocious beasts, he still felt a little pressure.

Lin En: "Xiao Na, the thorny wall can't withstand the attacks of these sixth-rank ferocious beasts right now. We might have to go out and block them."

Monster Girl Xiao Na: "Mmm, Lady Hilliria has already arranged it. We will use a magic array to protect our home, and then the rest is up to Lord Lin En."

Monster Girl Xiao Na (●'◡'●)

Lin En: "???, What do you mean, leave it all to me? Even if I put on the Dragon Suit, my attributes are only 1500. There's no way I can defeat a hundred sixth-rank ferocious beasts, right?"

Monster Girl Xiao Na: "Lady Hilliria said that Lord Lin En can use the abilities on the suit to slowly solve them."

After Monster Girl Xiao Na finished speaking, she and the remaining sixth-rank monster girls dispersed to the corners of the wall, followed by a magic shield that covered the entire home.

The magic shield fell before the ferocious beasts arrived, directly bumping into the rapidly charging ferocious beasts, giving them bloody noses and swollen faces. Some unlucky ones even kicked the bucket.

The attacks of the sixth-rank ferocious beasts followed, and the magic shield rippled.

…

Lin En on the side finally figured out the Dragon Soul effect of the Dragon Suit: attribute enhancement doubled, and attacks also came with Dragon Soul damage.

After figuring it out, Lin En directly activated the Dragon Soul effect, then took out his one-handed sword and the giant egg, turned on god mode, and charged towards the sixth-rank ferocious beasts with a *pa* sound.

The current me can go on a rampage! You little extras, prepare to die!

*Adadadadada*, a Nethersea Scale Python was smashed in the head by the giant egg, flying straight towards a Flying Giant Goose, and then being eaten.

In just five minutes, over sixty of the hundred sixth-rank ferocious beasts had died tragically under Lin En's sword and the giant egg.

The remaining sixth-rank ferocious beasts all gathered together. Suddenly, the remaining Giant Armor Mantises began harming each other. The other ferocious beasts were also attacked by the Giant Armor Mantises.

Hmm? Although Lin En didn't know why they were fighting each other, stopping them was the right thing to do.

The ferocious beasts that were fighting each other saw Lin En flying over. Some severely injured sixth-rank ferocious beasts immediately gave up resistance and were quickly devoured by the other ferocious beasts.

*Ding-dang*, Lin En's one-handed sword was actually blocked by a Giant Armor Mantis. Seeing the one-handed sword blocked, Lin En immediately swung the giant egg towards the ferocious beast.

After smashing the Giant Armor Mantis away, Lin En immediately returned to the thorny wall, looking at the ferocious beasts in surprise. They only ate a few of their own kind, so how did they become so powerful?

Lin En activated Identification again, and the shocking result was that the remaining ferocious beasts had each increased their attributes by hundreds of points.

And the Giant Armor Mantis that blocked his attack had the highest increase.

This was troublesome. He didn't expect them to improve so much after harming each other.

Lin En sensed the Dragon Soul time, and there were probably only a few minutes left. He didn't know if he could kill them all.

Lin En charged towards the ferocious beasts with his sword, desperately hacking at the Giant Armor Mantis, completely ignoring the other ferocious beasts. After all, he wasn't afraid of their attributes even if the Dragon Soul effect disappeared, but this Giant Armor Mantis was different. Without the Dragon Soul, he would definitely kick the bucket.

Under Lin En's crazy attacks of trading injuries for injuries, he finally managed to take down the Giant Armor Mantis at the cost of a dozen wounds.

Although he was a little injured, Lin En still smiled in satisfaction. Once the Giant Armor Mantis died, he could slowly wear them down.

Just as Lin En looked at the ferocious beasts, the dungeon system broadcasted a prompt from the sky above the dungeon.

[System: Dragon Invasion, Please Be Careful]

As the system's voice fell, a loud dragon roar echoed through the sky.
