The monsters came in overwhelming numbers, yet under Marcus's command the battlefield moved with surprising order. With Marcus himself, Sea Demon Soul, and Pebble forming an iron wall at the front, while Goldie, Wyvern Saint Knight Lyanna, and Vixen Queen Camillo rained destruction from behind, enemies fell one after another without ever reaching true chaos. Their formation had settled into a perfect rhythm, and the familiar ''train-pulling' strategy grew smoother with every wave they cleared.
These were level 48 monsters, a full ten levels above Marcus. The experience bonus alone was intoxicating. Watching the numbers surge upward, he felt a rush of pure exhilaration and laughed out loud.
"Hell yeah!"
