112: Chapter 112 Su Wan's Worries

Deep anxiety and a lack of confidence in her own strength were revealed between the lines.

Looking at Chen Hao's words, Lin Tian could imagine the honest man on the other side of the screen looking troubled. His fingers paused, and he replied:

Lin Tian: "Chen Hao, don't think like that. Rare-quality troops have already surpassed the vast majority of lords on this Eternal Continent. If even those of you who have unique characteristics and are well-prepared can't get through, wouldn't this so-called 'Newbie Trial' eliminate ninety-nine percent of people?"

"The System won't set up a dead end that is impossible to pass. Besides, you have traded so many spirit crystals with me, which is enough to arm your soldiers to the teeth."

Chen Hao: "That's what they say... Sigh, I hope so. However, regardless of anything, I still have to thank you, Boss Lin, for your support these past few days. Without your stable purchases, I wouldn't have had so many spirit crystals to arm my troops and build defensive structures."

"Although my combat power might still not be as good as those combat-type lords, at least... I feel a bit more at ease. I'm sending the items over now, Boss Lin, you must hold on! Let's... talk again after the beast tide!"

Lin Tian: "It's mutually beneficial, and you are also my most important Ore supplier. Take care, pay attention tonight, holding out until dawn is victory."

Chen Hao: "Yeah! Boss Lin, you take care too!"

As the transaction was confirmed, ten thousand units of heavy black-yellow stone entered the inventory. Lin Tian did not pause and immediately contacted the next person.

Lin Tian: "Brother Li, are you there? I urgently need ten thousand units of Refined Iron, do you have any in stock?"

Master Blacksmith Li Zhenguo replied very quickly, his words carrying the calmness and a hint of inquiry unique to a blacksmith: "Brother Lin, in the middle of the night, it seems you are preparing for the final sprint. Ten thousand Refined Iron, I have it. The furnace fire hasn't stopped today, just because I had a premonition that tonight wouldn't be peaceful. I can give you the items immediately."

"But Brother Lin, let me be a busybody and ask, what is your take... on the beast tide tonight?"

He seemed to want to sound out Lin Tian or seek some psychological reference.

Lin Tian looked at the question and pondered for a moment. What could he say?

Say that his sixty thousand soldiers were ready for battle, epic-tier troops were standing tall, gold-rank generals were in command, and he had even just hoarded four hundred earth crystal to do something big?

Saying this would probably scare the other party, and it would also be too much of a show-off.

Lin Tian: "Brother Li, no one can say for sure about this beast tide." He deliberated on his wording.

"After all, throwing all of humanity inexplicably onto this dangerous Eternal Continent is already absurd enough. Who would dare to guarantee what tricks the 'rules' here will play?" His words were honest, and they also carried a hint of cynicism about the nature of the world.

But in his heart, he thought confidently. I have confidence, just based on the sixty thousand brothers under my command who have licked blood from the blade and whose armor gleams with cold light, just based on these high city walls, and just based on the bow in Lin Yin's hand... This sense of confidence, calm yet surging, only churned within his own chest.

Master Blacksmith Li Zhenguo seemed to receive a strange sense of comfort from Lin Tian's calm tone, or perhaps he heard the unspoken certainty, and replied: "Brother Lin is right, what is a blessing is not a disaster, and what is a disaster cannot be avoided. Then I wish Brother Lin everything goes smoothly tonight, and may you win the first battle!"

Lin Tian: "Same to you, Brother Li. If you hold out until dawn, the beast tide should disperse. Adapt to changes by staying the same."

Master Blacksmith Li Zhenguo: "I accept your auspicious words!"

Another ten thousand units of Refined Iron were acquired. Finally, Lin Tian clicked on that emerald green avatar.

Lin Tian: "Lord Su Wan, are you there? I need to restock a bit more. Ten thousand units of moon birch spirit wood, six thousand holy lotus fruit, and six thousand healing potion. Can you take out that much right now?"

The message was sent, and he waited for a moment. Just when Lin Tian thought the other party might be busy, a reply came.

Lord Su Wan: "...Lin Tian, can you read minds? Or is there a mole on my side? As soon as you opened your mouth, it was almost all the emergency inventory currently in my Moonlight Grove."

The text carried a hint of surprise and helplessness, but there was no intention of refusing.

Lord Su Wan leaned against the window grown from living wood, her long hair draped down, reflecting the twinkling natural fluorescence in the forest outside the window.

In front of her was the trading interface, and the list of requirements sent by Lin Tian made her take a soft breath.

The moon birch spirit wood was a strategic reserve, and the holy lotus fruit and healing potion were even more critical for dealing with casualties.

Almost emptying the inventory meant that she was entrusting her territory's healing and recovery capabilities largely to the upcoming defense and Lin Tian's help.

She looked up at the forest outside the window, which was quiet but hidden with murderous intent.

It was fine during the day, but whenever night fell, those two bloodthirsty magic wolves wandering at the edge of the territory, exuding the terrifying aura of a Silver Nine-Star, were like the Sword of Damocles, hanging over her and all the elves.

The strongest under her command, Aelia, was only a Silver Five-Star, and not a pure combat class. A head-on confrontation would be ominous.

Anxiety, like vines, quietly wrapped around her heart.

But when her eyes fell back on Lin Tian's name, the phantom of the towering Red Sun War God in the Secret Realm involuntarily appeared in her mind, along with the figure of the Holy Envoy of the Profound Moon, who had severely injured the enemy with one arrow, cold as the moon yet powerful enough to be reassuring... A strange warmth and confidence slightly dispelled the chill.

"As long as I can hold on... As long as Lin Tian can resolve things on his side quickly enough..." She thought silently; this was her greatest hope. If it really didn't work, she would use the ally scroll to teleport to Lin Tian's territory.

As for the possibility that Lin Tian might not survive the beast tide?

This thought flashed through her mind, and she immediately dismissed it.

If a disaster that even such a powerful existence couldn't survive, what else could one do but accept fate? But subconsciously, she refused to believe in that possibility.

After a short and intense internal struggle, she bit her lower lip, and her slender fingers quickly typed on the light screen:

Lord Su Wan: "I have the items, we can trade. But Lin Tian, don't forget our agreement. After the danger on your side is resolved, you must come over to help me as soon as possible! I have at least two Silver Nine-Star bloodthirsty magic wolves here, and I'm afraid... I can't handle them."

The message was sent, and she waited with bated breath, her emerald eyes fixed on the interface.

When Lin Tian saw "two Silver Nine-Star bloodthirsty magic wolves," he raised an eyebrow.

For Lord Su Wan's elf troops, this was indeed a huge threat, no wonder she was so nervous.

However, with his current strength, as long as he wasn't held back by a large beast tide, it wouldn't be difficult to split his forces to deal with two Silver Nine-Star monsters.

Lin Tian: "Rest assured, I remember the agreement. I will resolve things on my side as quickly as possible, and then support you. Hold on."

Simple and concise, but it was a heavy promise.

Seeing this line of text, Lord Su Wan's taut heartstrings finally relaxed slightly, and she let out a long sigh of relief. With these words, she felt that she could hold the natural staff in her hand more firmly.

Lord Su Wan: "Okay, I believe you. Shall we trade now? I also need to use the spirit crystals I exchanged for to check the Trading Platform again to see if I can snap up some temporary defensive building blueprints or enhanced equipment."

Lin Tian: "Okay, let's trade."
