Since everyone was here to clear the dungeon, Ye Ci was not stingy, nor was she unhappy about what happened just now.
She looked at Crimson Millions and thought for a while before saying, "Did you notice that the grass here is lush compared to the other places in the dungeon?"
She only said this to enlighten Crimson Millions. She could not possibly tell Crimson Millions that there was an NPC in the northwest corner, deep within the lush grass, and that they had to find that NPC to clear the dungeon. If that was the case, Crimson Millions would probably be curious as to why she knew so much about the dungeon even though it was her first time here.
After hearing Ye Ci's words, Crimson Millions turned his head to look around. Indeed, the grass here was much thicker than the other places along the way. In many places, the grass had already grown taller than a person. If there was something hidden in such dense grass, it would be impossible to see it without looking carefully.
"Everyone, search the grass around the Automaton Formation. See if there are any clues to clear the dungeon." Crimson Millions was an experienced commander. He immediately realized the problem when Ye Ci mentioned it, so he immediately gave the order to the party members who were still resting.
As expected of a well-trained party, everyone stood up and began searching the lush grass around the Automaton Formation. Ye Ci purposely did not walk towards the northwest corner, but walked in the opposite direction.
Since she was the one who asked this question, it would be suspicious if she was the one who found it.
As expected, a party member quickly shouted at Crimson Millions, "Commander! There's an NPC here! "
Crimson Millions immediately sprinted towards the party member upon hearing that. Ye Ci did not follow him. Instead, she walked to the front of the Automaton Formation and sat down. That NPC would come back later anyway.
After arguing with the NPC for a long time, the little Gnome finally walked towards Ye Ci while cursing.
"You damned big guys, can't you see that I'm hiding? This is a mission! But it was a mission! The mission given to me by the higher-ups is to observe these traitors, not to defeat them! "
Ye Ci laughed. The Gnome NPC was as dumb as ever. The grass was so dense there. What could he possibly see?
"I'm telling you, I'm only helping you this time because of the money. If you fail, don't come looking for me!! I have my principles! " The little Gnome took out some tools from nowhere and instructed the players to push out the turrets that were no different from trash from the bushes.
As the saying goes, concentration is the essence. Pygmies were very small in stature, but they were the race most proficient in machinery. Engineering, alchemy, they were all skills that their race specialized in.
Therefore, it didn't take long for the little gnome to repair the three turrets.
"That's all, that's all! That's all I can do for you! " After the little Gnome repaired the last turret, he jumped down from it and walked towards the place where he was hiding.
He was the key to clearing this dungeon. As there were too many monsters in the Automaton Formation, there was no way to clear them all in one go. They could only rely on the turrets. However, the turrets had limited ammunition. The three turrets were only prepared with a total of six ammunition.
This was also the difficulty of the dungeon. If the six ammunition couldn't kill all eighty-one Automatons, then many Dark Gnomes would immediately appear from the stone tower. After ten seconds, these Automatons would all be repaired and continue to attack the players. At that time, the dungeon was basically a failure.
During the pioneering stage, many teams were stuck at this stage. They either couldn't kill all the Automatons, or tried to force their way through but were wiped out in the end.
After the three turrets were set up, Crimson Millions began to assign people to the turrets. One of them was Traceless Insanity, and the other was a Thief called Dark Moon. Just as Crimson Millions was still considering the last turret, Ye Ci took the initiative to ask, "Commander, can I give it a try?"
Ye Ci's self-recommendation immediately caused a wave of whispers. Although Ye Ci's performance was already extraordinary, and after entering the dungeon, everyone's eyes lit up. But after all, this was the first time they were in a party together. Compared to the others, everyone wasn't familiar with her. Naturally, they wouldn't feel at ease leaving such an important task to her.
Of course, Crimson Millions also considered this aspect. But in the end, he still decided to take a gamble. He wanted to see how far this Huntress named Gongzi You could go.
Thus, he nodded. He didn't take the other party's distrust to heart, and handed the last turret to Ye Ci.
"Everyone has two ammunition. Try to shoot as many as you can. Don't waste them. Killing one more Automaton will reduce the pressure on us later on. " After instructing the three of them, Crimson Millions asked them to get on the turrets. Seeing that the three of them were already sitting on the turrets, he said, "When I shout 123 to start, all of you come together …"
Before Crimson Millions could finish his sentence, the feathers at the tail of an arrow made a sharp sound in the air, flying towards the Automaton Formation.
-1742!
The Automaton Formation immediately flew towards the direction of the attacker. The situation took a turn for the worse. Crimson Millions paused for a moment, and immediately shouted angrily at the instigator, "Gongzi You! What are you doing! Are you trying to wipe us out? "
Although Crimson Millions was extremely angry, he couldn't be bothered to continue cursing at Ye Ci. He hurriedly ordered the party to retreat.
For a moment, the entire party was in a mess. They were like headless flies, unable to find their way. The entire party channel was filled with curses at Ye Ci, and complaints about Crimson Millions. It was so noisy that it was annoying.
Dark Moon had already jumped down from the turret at the side and joined the fleeing party. Traceless Aftermaths had also jumped down from the turret and was prepared to follow suit. However, when he raised his head and saw Ye Ci still standing on the turret with a calm face, he felt an inexplicable sense of calmness in his heart.
However, even so, he still hurriedly said, "Gongzi, let's go!"
Ye Ci didn't utter a word. She just stood on the turret and adjusted the angle of the turret as if there was no one around. She didn't care about Crimson Millions' anger and the other party members who were already in a mess. After the Automaton Formation rushed to a specific location, a loud bang was heard and the bomb flew out.
"Bring me a shell."
Before the shell flew out, Ye Ci had already extended her hand towards Traceless Aftermaths.
Traceless Aftermaths was slightly stunned. In the next moment, his body actually reacted faster than his brain. He immediately picked up a shell from the ground and quickly passed it to Ye Ci. Ye Ci skillfully loaded the shell and fired it again.
The first shell landed. It didn't deviate from its original target. It just happened to land where there were the most Automatons. Once they saw a sea of red words flying up. Along with the thick smoke and flying sparks, a calm and emotionless system report shouted in the party channel, "Gongzi You, downed 67 Automatons. Achieved a combo of 157!"
As Ye Ci fired another shell, the system report shouted again, "Gongzi You, downed 73 Automatons. Achieved a combo of 189!"
Traceless Aftermaths was completely stunned. It can't be … So fierce?
"Shell." Ye Ci's gaze shifted and saw Traceless Aftermaths standing there in a daze. She extended her hand again.
"Oh, oh." This time, Traceless Aftermaths didn't have any other suspicions. He quickly passed a shell into her hand.
"Gongzi You, downed 81 Automatons. Achieved a combo of 234!"
After that, everyone received the achievement "Master of Destruction".
There were several achievements regarding the Automatons' Formation. "Master of Destruction" was the lowest. Any party that could defeat 81 Automatons within 6 shells would receive this achievement. However, if a party was able to defeat 81 Automatons within 3 shells, they would receive the achievement "Master of Destruction". If they only used 2 shells, they would receive the achievement "Maniac of Destruction". If they only used 1 shell to defeat all the Automatons, they would receive the achievement "Nemesis of Automatons".
Ye Ci was extremely dissatisfied with this result. After all, she had defeated 81 Automatons with a single shell for 50 times in her past life. She had received the achievement "Terminator of Automatons" and entered the glorious history of Fate!
It seemed that she really hadn't practiced for too long. She actually used 3 shells to defeat all the Automatons.
Regarding Ye Ci's dissatisfaction, the others had nothing to say. Those who were able to enter the second squadron were not ordinary players. They could basically be considered as elite players. After being wiped out last time, they all knew how difficult it was to kill these Automatons with shells.
With so many Automatons, even 6 shells might not be enough. However, this Huntress in front of them actually managed to defeat all of them with just 3 shells. Of course, there were some who were dissatisfied and wanted to try again after the dungeon reset tomorrow. However, this was no longer important.
Crimson Millions really didn't know what to say now. He walked to the side of the cannon and coincidentally bumped into Ye Ci jumping down from the cannon. He stared at Ye Ci and opened his mouth. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "You've been to this dungeon before?"
Ye Ci smiled and said half-truthfully, "I used to be a great sniper in Frontline Shooting."
Crimson Millions still had a lot of doubts in his heart. For example, this person was a closed beta player. For example, she might be related to the core team of Fate. For example, she might be a smurf account of some GM … etc. There were countless guesses and doubts, but now it seemed that Ye Ci's reason was the most convincing.
"What I said just now …" Crimson Millions suddenly recalled his scolding words and felt somewhat embarrassed. He scratched his head and wanted to apologize to Ye Ci, but he felt that he couldn't open his mouth. After muttering for a while, he said in a serious tone, "You should have listened to the command just now. Fortunately, we were lucky this time. If we were unlucky …"
Ye Ci smiled again and interrupted his preaching, "Sorry, it's been a long time since I touched something with a scope. I got too excited."
