"Activate!"
When Yang Rui turned to look at Predator Sword, Predator Sword nodded back at Yang Rui. Clearly, he had long since known about the prompt. After receiving Predator Sword's approval, Yang Rui chose to activate the Terracotta Soldier instance dungeon quest.
The instance dungeon quest required a token to activate. Earlier, Predator Sword had given Yang Rui the token for activating the Terracotta Soldier instance dungeon – the square copper coin. It was through this token that Yang Rui and all the soldiers of Predator Sword were teleported to the location of the instance dungeon quest – before a green mountain.
After the teleportation, Yang Rui and the others were enveloped by a spherical energy field. They were unable to see the terrain around them. When Yang Rui chose to activate the instance dungeon quest, all the 50000 soldiers felt their vision darken as they were teleported once more.
[System prompt: You have entered the Terracotta Soldier instance dungeon. The instance dungeon quest will officially begin in 10 minutes. Please make your preparations.]
After the system teleported them once more, Yang Rui received another system prompt, reminding Yang Rui and the others to make their preparations.
However, the scene before them was something that none of them had expected. After the system teleported Yang Rui and the others into the instance dungeon, their surroundings turned pitch black. The players were unable to see their surroundings at all. They could not even see their own teammates clearly.
"What is going on?"
"What is going on?"
"Why can't I see anything?"
“.....”
The players immediately broke out into a clamor. Only Yang Rui and a few other players remained silent. Most of the other players were muttering softly. At that moment, only Yang Rui and a few other players with the strength of Basic Generals and above were able to maintain a certain range of vision. Among them, Yang Rui had already reached the strength of a quasi-Advanced-level General. Thus, his range of vision was the widest among all the other players.
Yang Rui had already taken a good look at his surroundings. At this time, he, Predator Sword and the others were in a spacious space. It looked like a large room. Yang Rui and the others were near one of the walls of this room. The room was densely packed with rows of terracotta figures. There were at least thousands of them!
The room Yang Rui and the others were in was very big. However, Yang Rui roughly estimated that there were only around 500 players who were teleported into this room with Yang Rui and the others. The other tens of thousands of soldiers were nowhere to be found. Yang Rui was also very confused about this situation!
"… Keep quiet! Everyone, stay where you are and don't move! Blazing Sun bro, open the minimap! "
While Yang Rui was puzzled, he suddenly heard Ironblood Sword shout beside him. He then whispered a reminder to Yang Rui. Yang Rui followed Ironblood Sword's instructions. He quickly opened up the minimap, and sure enough, the minimap showed the general environment that everyone was currently in.
Rows of grids could be seen on the minimap. Each of the grids should correspond to a large room like the one Yang Rui and the others were in. The total number of grids should be no less than 100! At the same time, Yang Rui also noticed that there was a cluster of green dots within each of the rooms on the minimap. Those green dots represented the Players from the same faction. Judging by the minimap, the 50000 soldiers who came with them this time were evenly distributed across tens to hundreds of grids!
"The present situation is somewhat unexpected. I did not expect the instance dungeon to split the soldiers up. Although we can check out the situation in the other rooms through the minimap, our long-distance communication has been cut off. In other words, we cannot communicate with the Players in the other rooms!
Additionally, we do not even have a clear idea of the situation in the rooms. Most of us can only see the dark. This is very disadvantageous for our operation! I wonder if Blazing Sun can clearly see the situation in the room? "
Ironblood Sword took advantage of the short period of time before the instance dungeon quest officially began to communicate with Yang Rui.
"I can roughly see the situation in the room. From where we are standing all the way to the other end of the room, there are roughly 70 to 80 rows of terracotta soldiers. There are roughly 70 to 80 soldiers in each row. Other than that, there is nothing else in the room. I believe that after a while, these terracotta soldiers will most likely become our opponents! "
Yang Rui explained what he had seen to Predator Sword, hoping that he could take countermeasures.
After hearing Yang Rui's words, Ironblood Sword was slightly shocked. Ironblood Sword was about to reach the strength of a Middle General. He could only clearly see the 10 to 20 rows of terracotta soldiers. He did not expect Yang Rui to be able to see through the entire room! While silently taking note of Yang Rui's words, Ironblood Sword was also guessing what level of strength Yang Rui had reached.
"I've counted just now. The number of rooms on the minimap is exactly 100. According to our current situation, our 50000 people might be divided into these 100 rooms. There should be 500 people in each room.
According to Brother Blazing Sun's observation, there are at least 5,000 soldiers in total. However, there are no less than 5000 terracotta soldiers in each room. Don't tell me that each group of 500 of us has to clear a room individually? Brother Blazing Sun, do you have any good countermeasures? "
Ironblood Sword analyzed the current situation. As expected of a boss, he was able to calculate the number of people on both sides in a short period of time.
"I'm afraid we can only act according to the circumstances …"
Yang Rui already had a rough guess. After listening to Ironblood Sword's analysis, it happened to coincide with his own thoughts. However, he did not have any good countermeasures.
Regarding dungeon quests, Yang Rui had only heard of one or two in his previous life. As these types of quest dungeons were mostly monopolized by large Player organizations, ordinary Players would have a hard time coming into contact with them. Thus, there was very little content regarding this quest on the forums. Yang Rui had never heard of this Terracotta Soldier Dungeon that Ironblood Sword had discovered.
[System prompt: Terracotta Soldier Dungeon Quest has officially begun. You will have a total of 3 chances to clear the dungeon. During each attempt, you can record a quest node and pause the dungeon quest. Every completed segment of the quest will become a quest node. After recording a quest node, it will not affect the continuity of the dungeon. At the same time, it will not consume the number of times you can clear the dungeon!
Now, the first segment of the dungeon quest will begin – The Key to Rise of the Empire! Time limit: 3 hours. Player, please make your preparations. 3-2-1, quest begins!]
The 10 minutes of preparation time quickly passed. Following the system prompt, the Terracotta Soldier Dungeon Quest had officially begun.
However, the situation before Ironblood Sword's eyes did not change. The Terracotta Soldier inside the room still stood in its original position, showing no signs of any change. At this moment, Ironblood Sword was somewhat regretting his decision. In truth, he should have sent someone to observe the Terracotta Soldier during the preparation phase. Thinking about it, since the Terracotta Soldier was still in the preparation phase, it should not have been attacked.
Ironblood was a Player organization that had been established for a long time. Every Ironblood Player possessed excellent skills and organizational discipline. At this moment, the majority of the Players in the other rooms did not dare to act rashly as they had not received Ironblood Sword's orders.
However, at the same time, they had also received the system prompt for the first segment of the quest. They knew that the first segment of the quest had a time limit of 3 hours. If they did not receive any orders from Ironblood Sword, these Players would naturally seek to break through on their own. It was only a matter of time.
"Wasting time like this is not a solution. Brother Blazing Sun, wait here first. I'll bring a few brothers over to check it out!" Ironblood Sword could not help but say.
"Boss Ironblood, please wait. Blazing Sun should go with you. Since we're working together with Ironblood, it's our duty to complete the quest together!"
Yang Rui pulled Ironblood Sword's armour with one hand and headed towards the Terracotta Soldier's position. At the same time, 4 of Ironblood Sword's subordinates were moving. Their skills should not be too bad. Since Yang Rui had chosen to work together with Ironblood in this Instance Dungeon quest, and since he was the one who would receive the lion's share of the rewards, Yang Rui was already prepared to face the difficulties of the quest together with Ironblood. He did not intend to take advantage of Ironblood.
"Rumble … kaka … kaka …"
Yang Rui, Ironblood Sword and the others were originally standing close to the wall of the room. They were about 30 meters away from the first row of Terracotta Soldiers. However, when the 6 of them had only covered half the distance, they saw the first row of Terracotta Soldiers move with a loud rumble. This confirmed Yang Rui and Ironblood Sword's previous conjecture – these Terracotta Soldiers could be moved.
Seeing this, Yang Rui and the others immediately halted their steps. The first row of Terracotta Soldiers were all spear-wielding Terracotta Soldiers. After being moved, they neatly closed in on Yang Rui and the others. Their speed was actually very fast, not much slower than an ordinary Third Grade and Fourth Grade Terracotta Soldiers. Even if Yang Rui and the others stopped moving forward, they would still be attacked by these Terracotta Soldiers!
The first row of Terracotta Soldiers numbered about 70 people. When they closed in on them, it was an extraordinary sight. Especially when they were facing a group of mechanical Terracotta Soldiers. This was the first time Yang Rui, Ironblood Sword and the others had seen something like this.
"Rumble … kaka … kaka …"
Just as Yang Rui and the others were about to step forward and test the strength of these Terracotta Soldiers, a familiar sound rang out once again. The second row of Terracotta Soldiers had also been moved. However, Yang Rui and Ironblood Sword did not make any moves.
"Bang … bang bang …"
"Rumble … kaka … kaka …"
Immediately after, when Yang Rui and the others had just clashed with the first row of Terracotta Soldiers, the third row of Terracotta Soldiers had already started moving, charging forward in an orderly fashion.
"Kill!"
This time, Ironblood Sword could no longer wait. He loudly commanded the Terracotta Soldiers behind him to charge forward. Now, it was obvious that the Terracotta Soldiers were not triggered individually. Instead, once the first row of Terracotta Soldiers was moved, the Terracotta Soldiers behind them would also be moved.
In this way, if they waited any longer, more Terracotta Soldiers would be triggered. The players would soon be at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and fall into a passive situation. Thus, Ironblood Sword decisively ordered all the Ironblood players to charge forward.
"Kill!"
Upon receiving Ironblood Sword's order, all the Ironblood players in the room moved and charged forward. However, Ironblood Sword realized that most of his subordinates did not have vision at the moment. They could not see the position of the enemy at all.
