Compared to the first floor, the terracotta soldiers on the second floor were not only larger in size, their weapon models were also larger, making them look more powerful. Furthermore, there were so many of them that no matter how valiant Yang Rui was, the speed at which he killed the enemy was far slower than the activation speed of the terracotta soldiers. Therefore, it was difficult for him to avoid being surrounded.
It didn't take long for Yang Rui to realize this. It seemed that the method of suppressing his opponent on the first floor wouldn't work now. Yang Rui could only settle for the next best thing. As he fought, he moved to the bottom left corner of the room to reduce some of the pressure from the enemy.
The special skill of the [Six Forms of the Wild Goose Fall] was originally suitable to be used in a wide area. By retreating to the corner, Yang Rui gave himself a two-spear length of leeway so that he could successfully use the special skill to attack.
At this time, the importance of skills was reflected. If Yang Rui had already mastered the special skill corresponding to the Advanced Warrior's Ultimate Skill, perhaps the current situation would not be like this.
Yang Rui had already prepared a related skill book for himself in the Yellow Turban Uprising storyline reward – 49 Forms of the Wild Goose Fall * Soul. Based on the current characteristics of the [Six Forms of the Wild Goose Fall], the [Forty-Nine Forms of the Wild Goose Fall] was very likely to have forty-nine attack points in one move. Its power was not difficult to imagine.
However, Yang Rui had not even found a suitable skill book to advance the special skill in time, let alone learn the special skill's Ultimate Skill.
After Yang Rui retreated to the corner, as the first batch of terracotta soldiers were not many, he was able to handle it with ease. When the terracotta soldiers' speed became constant, the number of terracotta soldiers surrounding and attacking Yang Rui increased. At this time, Yang Rui used most of his strength and was only barely able to control the situation. This was mainly due to the fact that the terracotta soldiers on both sides of the wall were replenished at a slower speed, effectively reducing the terracotta soldiers' attack power.
However, Yang Rui's situation was displayed on the minimap. If it was deciphered by the Iron Blood Sword again, the meaning would change.
Among the numerous rooms in the mini-map, Predator Sword easily identified Yang Rui's room. This was because only Yang Rui's room had not been destroyed after the terracotta soldiers were triggered. The other players in Predator Sword did not have the strength to do so. When Predator Sword saw Yang Rui being 'forced' into the corner of the room by the terracotta soldier, he had already predicted the outcome for Yang Rui.
However, Predator did not stop observing. Iron-Blooded Sword was very interested in Yang Rui's strength. Many players were also interested in Yang Rui's strength. Moreover, Yang Rui's performance on the first floor was simply too extraordinary.
At this moment, Predator Sword could accurately deduce Yang Rui's true strength by observing Yang Rui's performance in the room. All he needed to know was how long Yang Rui could last. Therefore, Predator Sword did not choose to trigger the terracotta soldiers. Instead, he stayed where he was and observed Yang Rui's situation.
From the moment Yang Rui retreated to the corner of the room, Predator Sword's gaze had been fixed on the minimap. He had reason to believe that the terracotta soldiers on the second floor should be stronger than those on the first floor. Therefore, Yang Rui should not be able to last for too long.
However, Predator Sword had miscalculated this time. In the beginning, it was nothing. Predator Sword knew that Yang Rui's strength was extraordinary. It was normal for him to be able to last for a while. About half an hour later, Predator Sword began to click his tongue in wonder. However, at the same time, he also believed that Yang Rui had almost reached his limit. However, after half an hour, Yang Rui was still holding on. Predator Sword could not help but feel puzzled.
Based on Predator Sword's current strength, which was close to the peak of a Beginner Warrior, the number of times he could use his special skill would not exceed 100 times. Even if he could block the terracotta soldiers' attacks, it would not take more than 15 minutes for him to use his special skill 100 times. And after a Beginner Warrior's inner strength was exhausted. Their offensive and defensive capabilities were similar to that of a soldier of the same level. It would be difficult for them to last long under the intensive attacks.
In contrast, Yang Rui had actually held on for more than half an hour. How much inner strength did he need to hold on? Moreover, looking at Yang Rui's momentum, it was very likely that he would continue to hold on. No matter how long he could hold on, his strength had already shocked Predator Sword.
While Predator Sword was shocked, Yang Rui's side was actually not having an easy time. Although he did not have to worry about his inner strength, the terracotta soldiers on the second floor all used long weapons. Defending against them was not an ordinary kind of trouble. It could be said that half of Yang Rui's special skill effect was used on defense. Fortunately, he had an extraordinary defensive equipment that blocked most of the attacks.
As the battle progressed, Yang Rui also gained some insights. Although the terracotta soldiers' attacks were concentrated, their effective attack points were only above Yang Rui's neck or below his knee joint. The rest of the attacks fell on the Gold grade Billowing Silver Armor, Soul. It was almost like scratching an itch. It did not have much effect.
According to Yang Rui's observation, the terracotta soldiers would not attack below his knee joint. Therefore, Yang Rui changed his battle strategy. He concentrated the attacks on his neck and gave up all the defense of his entire body.
In this way, Yang Rui's neck and below were protected by the Billowing Silver Armor or were the blind spots of the enemy's attacks. He would not receive any damage. On the other hand, Yang Rui used the sharpness of the Six Forms of the Wild Goose Luo. After dissolving the enemy's attack, he could still cause great damage to the enemy. Therefore, the efficiency of killing the enemy increased by a lot.
Moreover, he did not know if it was a constant rule or an accidental phenomenon. Yang Rui realized that when he attacked with all his strength, the attack effect of the long spear in his hand, "Silver Snake's Tongue", would trigger more frequently. Every time the effect of "Silver Snake's Tongue" appeared, Yang Rui's attack power would suddenly increase. Moreover, he could attack more than 10 people at the same time.
Of course, this was merely a battle technique that Yang Rui had temporarily grasped. It merely increased his battle efficiency. The real reason why Yang Rui persisted was because of his profound inner strength. It had to be said that this was largely related to his unremitting practice of inner strength. However, Yang Rui's skill progress urgently needed to catch up with the pace of his inner strength.
Another hour passed by. After Yang Rui exerted all his strength and repeatedly stabbed the last few puppet soldiers that besieged him to the ground, the entire room completely regained its tranquility. Yang Rui had finally obtained the qualifications to pass through the room after an all-out struggle! If there were no accidents, the passage to the next area of the dungeon should be in the middle of the opposite wall.
However, Yang Rui did not immediately rush over. The two hours of battle had already depleted half of Yang Rui's inner strength. At the same time, Yang Rui's stamina was almost depleted. Once he entered the next area, there was a high possibility that he would immediately face another bitter battle. Hence, Yang Rui immediately recovered his stamina. He hoped to recover as much stamina as possible within the time limit of the quest.
After recuperating for close to two hours, Yang Rui stood up and walked towards the opposite wall. Sure enough, when Yang Rui approached the wall, the entrance to one of the passageways automatically opened with a loud bang. Similarly, a gentle ray of light shot over!
At the same time, Yang Rui paid attention to the two sides of the passage. Sure enough, it was the same as when he was on the first floor. On each side, there was a small square box. Yang Rui was the only one here. Naturally, he did not hesitate to pick up the two small boxes and placed them into his backpack. After that, he stepped into the passage.
Until now, Predator who had been observing Yang Rui's movements in the room could not believe his own eyes. Looking at the position where Yang Rui had disappeared from on the minimap, he should have entered the next level of the dungeon.
"Ka ka … ka ka …"
The instant Yang Rui stepped through the passage, a familiar sound rang out once again. Yang Rui turned towards the source of the sound and saw a giant terracotta soldier the height of three men charging towards Yang Rui's direction. It was actually another terracotta soldier.
This terracotta soldier was one size bigger than the one he encountered in the first floor's hall. It appeared even more ferocious and valiant. The weapon in its hand was the same as Yang Rui's, a long spear. However, compared to Yang Rui's great spear, this long spear was at least two to three times bigger.
"Ping ping … the two long spears clashed together. The situation was different from before. Yang Rui's spear skills belonged to the nimble and swift type. As for the Spear General terracotta soldier, its large spear was strong and powerful. It was a perfect match for its heavy and sturdy body. After exchanging blows with the terracotta soldier, Yang Rui found it difficult to fight.
The Spear General terracotta soldier should be at the same level as Yang Rui. It had already reached the level of a high level military general. Furthermore, its battle skills were most likely at the level of a special skill's ultimate skill. At the very least, it should be an advanced special skill. Yang Rui was undoubtedly inferior compared to it. Ignoring the fact that Yang Rui had already expended quite a bit of his inner strength and stamina, his durability was inferior to the other party. Just the difference in skill level was enough to determine that Yang Rui would have a hard time defeating the other party.
After exchanging blows with the Spear General terracotta soldier, Yang Rui repeated his old trick and concentrated his attacks on the other party's feet. However, Yang Rui quickly discovered that the weakness of the Spear General terracotta soldier was not its feet. Yang Rui's barrage of attacks did not have any effect.
Yang Rui could only try his best to find the weakness of the Spear General terracotta soldier. Under such circumstances, if he was unable to find its weakness, or if the other party did not have any obvious weakness, then Yang Rui would be defeated by the other party sooner or later.
After exchanging blows for nearly a quarter of an hour, although Yang Rui was in a disadvantageous position, as he circled around the circular hall. However, Yang Rui managed to seize the opportunity to attack the weak points of the Spear General terracotta soldier's body. Yet, it was to no avail. Almost every attack was unable to break through its defense.
