Chapter 455: Stealing Tanks
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The area where the Iron Alliance’s Elite Party were in had no other players. The moment they stepped into the teleportation door, each party had been separated from one another.
Hiss...Hiss...Hiss...
A white light net surrounded them and was emitting a sound similar to an electric current and was slowly closing around the party.
Cling! Clang!
The white light net touched a broken machine and reduced it to dust...
“The f*ck? How can we beat this? It’s closing in!”
Everyone in the party frantically stared at Li Yi and awaited his commands.
Since they had never fought the Instance Dungeon, Glory before, the only one they could rely on in their current situation was Li Yi.
“Crawl forward!”
Li Yi ran towards the white light net and flopped onto the floor.
Everyone hastily imitated him.
Thought Li Yi had never entered Glory before, he had read the guides a few times. Some of the knowledge he remembered and though he could not confidently say he knew everything, he was still better off than normal players.
“Hiss! Hiss!”
The white light net on top of them continued to emit static sounds, but since they were crawling, there was no gap for them to lift their heads. Fortunately for them, their party did not contain any players from the Giant Clan. Otherwise, no matter how adept he was, he was bound to die there.
“Don’t raise your heads, just keep crawling onward. Also, I’ve never entered this dungeon before, so I’m not clear on its general flow!”
Li Yi told them the truth as he crawled forward.
“That can’t be, aren’t you a closed beta...”
“Closed beta what? Scr*w that! They’ve already announced the name list of the ten closed beta players, I’m a true pro, just like Amber Sword Heart from the Southern Continent, no?”
“Hmm yeah...”
The party slowly advanced with doubt in their hearts.
“Beep beep beep beep! Alert! Intruder Alert!”
Their crossing under the white light net did not go smoothly. They only crawled for a while before a bunch of miniature robots appeared. They were wielding cute little laser guns and fired at the party...
Hiss Hiss—
[−1, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9...]
Though the laser gun’s damage was not impressive at first, the damage it dealt was continuous. As the laser beams continued to shine on them, its damage would gradually increase, making it more and more dangerous.
“Dammit, is this the technology of the Ancients?”
“Scr*w them! We can’t use healing spells when we’re crawling. What should we do?”
“Just crawl faster...”
Li Yi picked up the pace and sped forward...
Glory was an extremely complicated dungeon, and depending on where the parties were sent to, there were different playstyles to adhere to as well. If there were 100 parties, then they would be sent to 100 different locations, and there would be 100 different playstyles. If there were 1,000 parties, then there would 1,000 different locations and 1,000 different playstyles. This was the impressive part of the Instance Dungeon, Glory.
Li Yi was no god and being able to remember one or two playstyles of Glory was already tough enough. Thus, he could not say much about the details.
Li Yi was the best at Solo-ing, and in truth, all Party-level Instance Dungeons were his weakness...
Li Yi and Jiaojiao were the first to make it out of the white light net, and following them was Shangguan Bailu and Confused Fox.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Confused Fox and Li Yi attacked at nearly the same time. Their attacks were directed at the miniature robots within the light net.
The miniature robots’ HP wasn’t that high, and from their battered looks, it was clear that they were defects. Each of them only had 2,000 HP and were very weak.
With the miniature robots around them eradicated, the pressure on the party had lessened. One by one, they made it out of the light net.
Naturally, there were lucky players and there were unlucky ones. While crawling under the light net, at least 50 players had accidentally touched the light net and were electrocuted to death.
Those that died used their Holy Light Amulet to revive, and with that, all 500 party members were present. They then made their exit from the light net area.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
Not far from them were many self-moving turrets. When they sensed the presence of enemies, they immediately gathered towards the party.
What Li Yi and his party were about to face was a bunch of sapient robot monsters!
“The Evil God’s Glorious Light will illuminate this world. Now speak, who are you people and why are you here?”
Before the self-moving turrets had reached them, a red-clothed High Curse Priest that rode a blue proto-dragon whelp descended from the skies and interrogated Li Yi and the others.
“The Evil God’s Glorious Light will illuminate the world. We were sent to rescue Pope Shirui, this is...”
Li Yi politely walked forward and gave his salutations to the High Curse Priest. The key to clearing Glory was by masterfully interacting with NPCs.
The red-clothed High Curse Priest nodded his head. “Noted, I have received a secret order from our Pope and am already aware of this fact.”
At this point, the red-clothed Curse Priest’s name was revealed. She was called ‘Messenger of the Glorious Light, Laura.”
“The monsters within the Ancient Civilization Ruins are extraordinary. Should you venture forward, it is very likely that you and your party will be annihilated.” Laura pointed towards the West and said, “That is an enemy supply point, should you conquer it, it might yield some tanks for your journey ahead.”
“May the Evil God’s blessing be with you.”
Laura rode on her blue proto-dragon whelp, gave Li Yi and his party a hand by destroying the self-moving turrets in front, and ascended higher and higher. Before long, she had vanished without a trace.”
“Off to the supply point we go!”
Li Yi summoned Holy Light Warhorse and charged towards the West. The only mount limitation that Glory imposed was on the flying mounts, and the land mounts were unaffected. As such, they could use them as they pleased.
Laura had cleared the monsters neatly. Li Yi and the others were unobstructed, and they arrived at the Third Supply Point in no time.
The supply point before them spanned several hundred meters, and in the middle of it was a tall smokestack. A number, 3 was written on it, and from afar, they could observe countless robots roaming about.
“Attack!”
Li Yi issued the command, and once he fully charged his Powered-up Arrow, he let loose the fearsome attack!
Tch-psh-bish-tst-pst-brrrr—
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Powered-up arrow penetrated several robots before finally pinning itself onto the smokestack.
“Alert! Destroy the intruders!”
The robots surged forward, laser guns in hand. They let loose the lasers and returned fire.
“Go! Go! Take over the Third Supply Point and steal their tanks!”
Just as Li Yi was having a hard time trading blows with the robot army, a bunch of players rushed out from behind the supply point, howling.
Kaboom! Kaboom! Dudududu...
Thunderous explosions rang out, and ten huge tanks drove out from the supply point. They proudly advanced and crushed all the robots in their way.
Li Yi and the others only stopped fighting after the ten tanks had left...
The supply point had been reduced to rubble, and not a single tank was in sight.
Flower Underpants seethed with rage. “What the f*ck! Who would do this kind of thing?”
“How immoral of them to steal the tanks while we drew the robots’ attention.” Confused Fox was angry as well.
Li Yi’s face was as calm as water. Two words slipped out from his mouth. “Defiantly Tyrannical.”
The players that took advantage of the chaos to steal the tanks really were the Elite Party led by Defiantly Tyrannical!
“F*ck them and their f*ck their parents! These bastards deserve a beating.” When Flower Underpants heard Li Yi’s words, he instantly exploded with rage.
“F*ck it, do they not value their lives? How dare they steal our tanks!”
The Iron Alliance’s Elite Party were enraged.
Aside from the small robot monsters, there were also huge combat robots as well within Glory. Without the aid of the tanks, they would have a difficult time against them with their strength alone.
Flower Underpants asked dejectedly, “Do you think these tanks will respawn?”
Nobody answered him...
“Pew! Pew! Pew!”
Kaboom! Kaboom!
While the Iron Alliance’s Elites were grumbling, explosions rumbled from the direction the Three Major Guild Alliance drove their tanks. Lights dotted the area, and it seemed that they were engaged in combat.
“C’mon, let’s take a look!”
The Iron Alliance’s Elites hurriedly got onto their mounts and rode behind Li Yi.
The battle took place on a plot of empty land. The Three Major Guild Alliance’s tanks continuously shot out explosive rounds, and while doing so, they cursed their opponents as well. Tensions were high and it was an intense scene.
Fighting against the ten tanks were another ten tanks. The only difference between them was that the Three Major Guild Alliance’s ones were blue in color and their opponent’s ones were black.
“The f*ck? Can you grow a pair of eyes? We’re from the same team, why on earth did you attack me for?!”
“Well, I’ll be damned. What are you attacking us for? It doesn’t give any experience, so what do you stand to gain?”
At that moment, the players from the Three Major Guild Alliance were pretty pissed as well.
“Would you believe me if I said that it was a misunderstanding?” A wretched ear-piercing voice rang out from within a black tank.
“Why are you still attacking if it’s a misunderstanding? Can’t you stop?”
After hearing the opponent’s words, Defiantly Tyrannical hurriedly commanded his men to cease fire. As high as the tanks’ HP were, they were irreparable once damaged.
The information that he had gleaned from Defiant Feifei was severely limited, and if these tanks were destroyed, he would not know where to get replacements. It was uncharted territory for him.
No matter what camps players were from, they would be unable to slaughter one another when they were inside Glory. However, there was an exclusion to this rule. There was no difference between allies and enemies among tanks, and as long as their explosive shells landed, it would still deal damage, even if its target was allied tanks.
Kaboom! Kaboom!
Defiantly Tyrannical was done issuing commands, and his side had ceased fire. However, his opponents did not let up, and it seemed that they had no intention of stopping.
Defiantly Tyrannical panicked. “Friend from the other side, you said that it was a misunderstanding, so we’ve ceased fire. But why are you still attacking? Can’t we stop from this moment forward?”
The high-pitched voice rang out. “I already told them to stop though. Brothers, maintain our image, please. When I tell you to stop, stop!”
Kaboom! Kaboom!
The black tanks continued firing their shells, which ignited the flames within Defiantly Tyrannical’s heart.
“Are you f*cking toying with me right now? Defiantly Tyrannical howled.
Kaboom! Kaboom!
Defiantly Tyrannical angrily spat, “Scr*w your mom, if you continue to attack, we’ll return fire as well!”
The opponent stopped firing.
“Would you believe me if I said that it was a misunderstanding?” The high-pitched voice rang out again.
Defiantly Tyrannical answered, “Of course I do, why else did we stop firing?”
Kaboom! Kaboom!
The opponents started firing again, and this time they gathered their firepower to destroy one of the Three Major Guild Alliance’s tanks in one blow.
“The f*ck, how dare you play me!” Defiantly Tyrannical was choking on his lungs at this point, and he issued the command to counter-attack.
The sharp voice spoke once again, “Would you believe me if I f*cked your wife and said that it was a misunderstanding? Huh? As for me, I would never believe it! So, give them a good beating, brothers!”
Kaboom! Kaboom!
The black tanks fired in unison, completely overwhelming the Three Major Guild Alliance...
