The System Notification came again. After Yang Rui recorded the Instance Dungeon's Instance Dungeon, he used the Clearance Key to enter the third floor of the Instance Dungeon.
The monsters that spawned on the third floor were mechanical beasts again. However, their grades had increased. The strongest mechanical beast was Fourth Grade, while the weakest was Second Grade.
The rest of the map and terrain did not change much. It was still similar to the first and second floor of the Instance Dungeon. The main layout was a hall, corridors, and small rooms, forming a maze-like scene. Under normal circumstances, as long as players followed the corridors and cleared them one by one, they would be able to reach the deepest part of the floor.
Although the monsters on this floor had increased by one grade, the number of Fourth Grade mechanical beasts was still not high. Their individual strength was also only comparable to a normal Fourth Grade Yellow Turban Soldier. Therefore, Yang Rui still ordered Zhang Mancheng to lead the Fourth Grade Yellow Turban Soldiers as the main force to push forward.
Throughout the entire process, there were only a few times where the number of mechanical beasts gathered. Zhang Mancheng used the 'Boiling Yellow Turban' ultimate skill to increase the strength of the Yellow Turban Soldiers. The rest of the time, there was no difficulty in pushing forward. Compared to the first and second floor of the Instance Dungeon, the situation was not much different. The only difference was that it took a little more time.
During this period, the number of items dropped was also not small. Yang Rui's subordinates also picked up a lot of bags of various sizes.
When they reached the end of the dungeon, Yang Rui and the others were intercepted by 63 Mechanical Beasts as usual. This time, the Mechanical Beasts were Advanced General level Mechanical Liger Beasts.
Even though they were only Mechanical Beasts with the strength of high level Martial Generals, their numbers were not to be underestimated. This time, Yang Rui, Gao Shun, and Zhang Mancheng were fighting at the same time, and with Zhang Ning's [Meditation] and [Recuperation], they took turns to fight. After spending a lot of effort, he finally took down all 63 Mechanical Lion Tiger Beasts.
During this process, Yang Rui also showed off his new Level One Fighting Skill, Scarlet Emperor Sword Technique. When used together with his sharp, nameless three-foot-long sword, it was very sharp. When he dealt with the Mechanical Lion Tiger Beasts that were Advanced General level, it was still as easy as cutting vegetables.
The performance of Yang Rui's Scarlet Emperor Sword Technique was even sharper than Zhang Mancheng's Level Two Fighting Skill, Astronomical Saber Technique, which he had already mastered. In fact, based purely on the momentum of the skill, Scarlet Emperor Sword Technique was not inferior to Gao Shun's Level One Fighting Skill, Tenacious Battle. It must be known that Yang Rui had just mastered Scarlet Emperor Sword Technique not long ago!
What was slightly regrettable was that even though Scarlet Emperor Sword Technique was an outstanding Level One Fighting Skill, it was not a soul skill. However, since it wasn't a soul-type ultimate skill, it was destined that he wouldn't be able to bring its effects to the real world …
At the same time he got rid of the Mechanical Lion Tiger Beasts guarding the level, Happy thought to himself. Yang Rui was also speculating in his heart. Based on the battles he had encountered in the final stages of the three-level dungeon, the strength of the mechanical beasts and mechanical puppets guarding each level would increase along the path of the generals. Even though their numbers would decrease with each level, if this continued, the difficulty would still increase a little too quickly.
With the abilities of the generals Yang Rui brought with him, at most, they would only be able to clear one or two levels of the dungeon before they would be unable to clear it. If Happy's guess was correct, the monsters guarding the next level would be at the level of special-grade Generals.
Even though the difficulty of clearing the level had increased, their rewards were still very impressive. Once they defeated the sixty-three Mechanical Lion Tiger Beasts, Yang Rui and the others picked up another Mechanical Beast Blueprint.
"Divine Mechanical Beast Creation Blueprint (Commander Level): Can create Divine Mechanical Beasts at the level of Generals. There are a total of twelve different types of blueprints. Requires eighty-one Advanced Carpenters or above to learn and master them together.
When the Divine Mechanical Beast is created, it will have the strength of a Beginner General. It can gain EXP through training and fighting enemies to increase its strength. The EXP required to level up is the same as that of a regular NPC general. Its basic combat power is similar to that of a general of the same level.
"Creation Materials: 100 ~ 300 units of Grade Seven and above Wood, 50 ~ 150 units of Grade Seven and above Muscle …"
After Yang Rui checked the new Mechanical Beast Blueprint, he was naturally overjoyed. This blueprint was actually a blueprint for creating Mechanical Beasts at the level of Generals. Compared to creating Mechanical Beasts at the level of Soldiers, the meaning was different.
Recruiting Normal Soldiers was not difficult for Yang Rui. However, whether it was Basic, Intermediate, or Advanced Generals, they were all strictly limited by the number of Skill Books he had. Even now, Yang Rui only had a little over 1,000 Generals of various levels, and this was including the 500 Basic General Skill Books Yang Rui had obtained from Dong Zhuo.
Meanwhile, with this Divine Mechanical Beast Creation Blueprint (Commander Level), the situation would be greatly different. As long as he had sufficient resources, Yang Rui could develop and create a large number of Mechanical Beasts at the level of Generals!
What was extremely valuable was that even though the quality of the materials required to create the Mechanical Beast General had increased, it was still only Grade Seven Wood and Raw Tendons. Yang Rui had quite a lot of Grade Seven Wood and Raw Tendons on hand. As long as he put his heart into it, it wouldn't be too difficult to find the same grade of Raw Tendons.
This provided the basic conditions for mass production of Mechanical Beasts at the level of Generals. Most importantly, the requirement to learn and use this blueprint was that it still required Advanced Carpenters. This greatly increased the value of this Mechanical Beast Creation Blueprint. Advanced Carpenters were still relatively easy to find.
As for the increase in the number of Carpenters, it might be a problem for a normal Lord class player. However, for a warlord like Yang Rui, it was not a big problem at all.
After clearing the third floor of the dungeon, Yang Rui quickly recorded the quest points. However, he did not immediately lead everyone to the fourth floor of the dungeon.
At this time, it had been more than four hours since Yang Rui and the others entered the "Vanishing House of Mo" dungeon. Yang Rui first ordered everyone to temporarily stay for a meal to rest and eat. After that, he led everyone to the next floor of the dungeon.
"Whoosh … Whoosh whoosh …"
"Pu!"
"Pa!"
"Pu! Pu! "
"… …"
Just as Yang Rui led everyone into the fourth floor of the dungeon, several "Whoosh whoosh whoosh" sounds of air breaking rang out. Following that, dozens of long objects as thick as javelins shot towards the middle of Yang Rui and the others. Apart from a few that were deflected by Yang Rui, Gao Shun, Zhang Mancheng and the others in time, the rest of the javelins hit their targets. Several sounds of flesh being pierced rang out.
Just as they entered the fourth floor of the dungeon, Yang Rui and his troops were ambushed by the surrounding monsters!
Although there were quite a number of golem puppets scattered around the hall at the entrance of the fourth floor, they were still quite a distance away from Yang Rui and the others. It was clear that the ambush just now had come from these golems' long-range attacks.
Although those long objects that looked like expressions were only made of wood, both ends were equally sharp. In the wave of attacks just now, there were several of these 'javelins' that directly struck the Fifth Grade Formation Breaker soldiers standing at the front. Among them, two of the soldiers were directly hit in their vital points, leaving them with only one breath left!
At this moment, only by activating the Formation Breaker's' Live and Die together 'characteristic could these heavily injured soldiers be saved. If it were any other soldier, they would already be beyond saving.
This was also because Yang Rui had considered the possibility of sudden danger, which was why he placed Gao Shun's 10000 Formation Breaker soldiers at the front. Who would have thought that this prediction would come true the moment they entered the fourth floor of the dungeon.
"All soldiers, tighten your formation. Generals, use your ultimate skills to assist." After receiving the first wave of attacks, Yang Rui immediately commanded.
After hearing Yang Rui's command, the Formation Breaker soldiers at the front immediately tightened their formation, crowding the injured soldiers into the middle of the formation. At the same time, Gao Shun's ultimate skill had already been used. The few soldiers who were originally on the verge of death were finally able to hang on to their last breath. There were also nearby soldiers who pulled out the 'javelins' and began to bandage their wounds.
As long as these soldiers treated their wounds while the 'Live and Die together' attribute was in effect, even if their vital points were injured, their lives would not be in danger. This was the strength of the Formation Breaker.
Of course, in order to heal the fatal wounds of the soldiers, the 'Live and Die together' attribute had to be maintained for a slightly longer period of time. It required at least an hour of time before the injuries to the vital points could be healed to a non-fatal state.
Correspondingly, the time required for Gao Shun to use the ultimate skill of the Formation Breaker was also slightly longer. This was nothing to Gao Shun.
"Whoosh … whoosh whoosh …"
"Pa!"
"Pa! Pa! "
"Pu!"
Yang Rui's troops had just reacted when another wave of 'javelins' from the monsters of the fourth floor had already arrived. However, this time, the majority of the 'javelins' were blocked by the generals and soldiers. Only three or four of the javelins actually managed to injure the soldiers.
Furthermore, in a situation where they were already prepared, even if the soldiers were injured, their vital points would not be injured. In front of the 'Live and Die together' attribute of the Formation Breaker, this was not even worth mentioning!
"Kill!"
