Global Lords: I Have Information System

Zong Shen roamed through the monster swarm, unleashing Demon Deterrence as if entering an empty realm.

The Wolf Cavalry also followed his command, maneuvering to and fro.

The warriors at the rear patiently waited for their moment to strike; everything fell perfectly into place.

It was as if they were not facing a Burrow Monster Swarm, but a piece of uncarved stone, being meticulously cut and polished by them.

One could absolutely call this a work of hunting art.

As they say, practice makes perfect—turning slaughter into a streamlined, efficient operation is partly due to Zong Shen and his warriors’ powerful strength, and partly due to the accumulation of combat experience.

After all, the Burrow Challenge had been ongoing for nearly six days, and in this time, directly or indirectly, Zong Shen had slayed nearly sixty thousand monsters; if he hadn’t been distracted by explorations, the number would be higher.

In dealing with Burrow Monsters, both Zong Shen and his warriors had accumulated a vast amount of experience.

Truth be told, any Lord surviving until now possessed some degree of survival experience.

Yet, few could confront the massive Burrow Monster Swarm with the calmness Zong Shen displayed, almost as if eating and drinking.

Zong Shen piloted the Burden-Bearer Mecha repeatedly through the monster swarm, even passing by the Burrow Hero. The Burrow Hero within this swarm was a Death Knight, and it too became dizzy under Zong Shen’s Demon Deterrence.

The entire monster swarm descended into chaos due to Zong Shen’s disruption, even beginning to scatter. The swarm was split into three parts, thanks to Zong Shen.

Meanwhile, due to the interference of Demon Deterrence, the Death Knight within the swarm forgot to consolidate the monsters; the nearest portion of the swarm was already within a hundred meter range of the rear.

Mages were chanting magic, and the Dragon-kin Ranger Sisters raised their longbows.

Four Dragonized Spear and Shield Warriors and Sharp Claw Druid Lenza Broken Claw guarded roughly twenty meters in front of the mages—they didn’t move, but awaited the final challenge.

Several dozen meters ahead of them were Luna and three Female Hunters; this time, without a territory to defend, Zong Shen was unhurried unlike during Zhang Zihao and Trollop’s territory battles.

He had ample time to eliminate the monster swarm before him, even if it meant a temporary retreat or flank, which was one reason for his increased composure.

This time, he planned to adopt a stepwise attack strategy to consume the Burrow Monster Swarm.

According to this tactic, it would take about an hour and a half to annihilate the entire swarm; while the speed was not fast, the pressure was equally low, maintaining a balanced relationship.

If Zong Shen launched a full-scale attack using various massive destructive skills and strong skills in a flurry, the kill speed would naturally be high, but the combat load would surge, and, with strong skills in cooldown, responding to a sudden situation or subsequent intense battles would lack strength.

The art of marching requires relaxation in moderation, using a reasonable rhythm and tactics to ensure warriors can remain at their peak combat state.

It was fully daylight now; the sun rose from the east, its rays illuminating the clouds.

It was now slightly past six in the morning, with less than six hours left until the last refresh of the Burrow Challenge at noon.

When noon strikes at twelve, it marks the final day of the Burrow Challenge.

The week-long challenge activity was finally drawing to a close.

No one knew if the Burrow Challenge would hold any surprises; it seemed certain that the Lord System wouldn’t let the Lords smoothly sail through the challenge.

Over the past few days, the area lost seven or eight hundred Lords, leaving 7,523 Lords remaining; the casualty rate was, in fact, far lower than during the Newbie Stage, as the Lords who survived the novice phase were generally well-adapted to the survival rhythm.

Among those who perished in the Burrow Challenge, excluding unexpected events, most were killed by the Burrow Monster Swarm because the vast area, spanning 40,000 square kilometers, averaged one to two hundred monsters per square kilometer—of course, this was an average count.

Prior to the appearance of Burrow Heroes, the formation of Burrow Monster Swarms generally resembled a web, aggregating through specific attraction paths, naturally limiting their activity range.

In addition, the Lords were continuously hunting, which made the entire burrow fairly balanced—Burrow Monsters and the Lord’s Influence were evenly matched with control within optimal pressure scales.

Neither Burrow Monsters nor the Lord’s Influence held an absolute advantage.

Even when facing clustered Burrow Monster Swarms, if Lords were to unite, they could effectively resist them.

Take Trollop for instance—if there were four to six Lords of similar strength, relying on territorial defenses, spending time and energy, and suffering some casualties, they could still take down the swarm of three thousand monsters.

Dozens of Professional Warriors, using defenses and terrain to maximize combat effectiveness, showed formidable prowess, even capable of holding their ground against Stone Gargoyle Swarms and Ghostly Demonesses. Forming teams to advance and retreat collectively, they could crush weak monsters such as Burrow Zombies and Sharp-toothed Worms.
