The 1000 Fifth Grade Qin terracotta soldiers quickly reached the front of the checkpoint. The 100 or so civilian NPs who were involved in the defense also started to hurl the stones that were piled up on the wall. However, the damage was very limited. ¢£.
Yang Rui originally did not intend for these civilian NPs to be of much use in the defense. Thus, their current performance did not exceed Yang Rui's expectations. After the Qin terracotta soldiers reached the checkpoint, Yang Rui, Gao Shun and Yu Jin once again went down to the front of the checkpoint. The three of them worked together to kill the enemy.
There were no ranged soldiers among the terracotta soldiers. At the same time, the battlefield was at the entrance of the checkpoint. Yang Rui, Gao Shun and Yu Jin all used their ultimate skills. Cheng Yu also unleashed his innate skill, Thousand Knots of the Rocks. For a moment, the Qin terracotta soldiers were like waves crashing against a rock. There was no chance of them breaking through.
As Gao Shun and Yu Jin were First Grade Historical Generals, the Fifth Grade Qin terracotta soldiers could not pose much of a threat to them. At the very least, the 1000 or so soldiers before them could not do much.
On the other hand, Yang Rui had already reached the level of a Second Grade Historical General. In terms of individual strength, he was not much weaker than a First Grade Historical General. In particular, the strength of the Soaring Dragon Mantra – Soul allowed him to directly face a First Grade Historical General when he was only Third Grade. Now, his strength had greatly increased.
A long spear, a halberd, and a three-pointed, double-edged blade, these three weapons were seen dancing and dancing around the city gate, dissecting and breaking down the Qin terracotta soldiers who swarmed in, turning them into piles of clay. Immediately, smoke and dust rose up from the city gate.
In less than 15 minutes, the 1000 or so Fifth Grade Qin terracotta soldiers had all been cleaned up. Apart from the dust and clay that filled the air, there was nothing else. There was nothing else before the checkpoint. It was as if the Qin terracotta soldiers had never appeared.
As the last Qin terracotta soldier turned into clay and fell to the ground. A flash of light appeared on the city wall. Several hundred civilian NPs, regardless of whether they were participating in the defense or not, were all enveloped by the light.
The light disappeared in a flash. The old, weak, and sick civilian NPs were all transformed into First Grade soldiers. Meanwhile, the one hundred strong civilians that were participating in the defense were all transformed into First Grade special forces!
"We are willing to submit to the general's army and obey the general's orders!"
When Yang Rui stepped onto the checkpoint again, the hundreds of newly converted soldiers all bowed and said in unison. They were willing to serve under Yang Rui and listen to Yang Rui's orders.
This was an unexpected gain. It reminded Yang Rui of the Horde soldiers when they were attacking the Tower of Civilization. These new soldiers could also play a big role in clearing the dungeon.
Yang Rui naturally accepted the soldiers who had submitted to him. At this time, Sky City could also be opened. However, when Yang Rui tried to use it, he was notified by the system that he could only take out 100 soldiers and activate 373 sets of equipment.
After some consideration, Yang Rui directly pulled out 100 Silver Painted Crossbowmen and 373 hunting bows. After Yang Rui's rough inspection, Yang Rui decided to take a look. The number "373" should be the number of new NPC soldiers in the dungeon.
"General, save me! General, save me … "
"We are being chased by the Qin army for no reason. General, please let us pass. Please save our lives … "
"… …"
In the next moment, another batch of civilian NPs arrived outside the checkpoint. The situation was very similar to the previous batch. The only difference was that there were more NPs than the previous batch.
"Follow me and help them pass!"
With the previous situation as a reference, Yang Rui immediately jumped down from the checkpoint and opened the gate. At the same time, he ordered the 383 newly acquired soldiers to come out and assist the old and weak NPs to pass.
This time, the Qin terracotta soldiers came faster. Moreover, their numbers had increased by quite a bit. Before half of the civilian NPs could enter the checkpoint, approximately 2000 Qin terracotta soldiers had already arrived. Under such circumstances, Yang Rui could only go forward with Gao Shun and Yu Jinding to buy time for the civilians to enter the checkpoint.
Fortunately, the Qin terracotta soldiers that appeared this time were still at Fifth Grade. For the time being, Yang Rui and the other two were able to deal with them.
At the same time, after Yang Rui and the other two stepped forward, the Qin terracotta soldiers' attention was completely diverted. After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, all of the civilian NPs had entered the checkpoint. Yang Rui and the other two were also able to quickly escape and return to the gate.
Following that, the defense became much easier. With the participation of the 100 Silver Painted Crossbowmen and the addition of Cheng Yu himself, although their numbers were slightly lesser, when the battle truly began, arrows still rained down like rain. Just the Silver Painted Crossbowmen alone had already caused the Qin terracotta soldiers to suffer heavy losses.
Under such circumstances, the number of Qin terracotta soldiers that could reach the gate had decreased significantly. Thus, Yang Rui, Gao Shun and Yu Jinding had an easier time guarding the gate. From start to finish, they had only spent a little more than 15 minutes before exterminating all of the Qin terracotta soldiers in front of the checkpoint.
After this wave, the new 898 civilian NPs that had entered the checkpoint had once again submitted to Yang Rui. Among them, nearly 300 were converted into First Grade Special Soldiers, while the rest were converted into First Grade Normal Soldiers.
As for the new batch of NPC soldiers that had entered the checkpoint, regardless of whether they were Normal Soldiers or Special Soldiers, they had directly advanced by one Grade, becoming Second Grade Normal Soldiers and Second Grade Special Soldiers.
This situation caused Yang Rui to be surprised. If not for the fact that they were in an instance dungeon, the soldiers would not have advanced so quickly. Moreover, there were still many prerequisites, such as levels and skill books.
Even in an instance dungeon or a mission, such a situation of leveling up was very rare. It should be a special setting of the current game.
At the same time that the soldiers advanced, Yang Rui had also obtained a chance to open Sky City. This time, he was still limited to releasing 100 soldiers. At the same time, Yang Rui was also given the opportunity to equip the new 898 soldiers.
As this was the defensive battle of the checkpoint, Yang Rui once again released 100 Silver Painted Crossbowmen from Sky City. In addition, he also gave 898 hunting bows to the new soldiers to increase their long range attack capabilities.
Following that, the defensive battle of the checkpoint continued one after another. The process almost repeated the first two rounds.
However, the number of civilian NPs that had entered the checkpoint would increase exponentially, and the number of Qin terracotta soldiers that appeared would also increase correspondingly.
After every battle, Yang Rui would also obtain a chance to replenish 100 soldiers. At the same time, the civilian NPs would also submit and advance in grade. Thus, the addition of Qin terracotta soldiers did not cause any more pressure on the defense of the checkpoint. Instead, it made the defense of the checkpoint much easier.
In the span of 6 hours, the defensive battle of the checkpoint had been carried out 10 times. At the end of the checkpoint, Yang Rui's forces had become 1000 Fifth Grade Silver Painted Crossbowmen, 16000 new Fifth Grade Normal Soldiers, 5000 Fifth Grade Special Soldiers, 29000 new Fourth Grade Normal Soldiers and below, and 10000 new Fourth Grade Special Soldiers and below.
