We can split up and act separately.
Having received this reply, the six people did not disperse. Even [ Do Some Farm Work ], who had raised the question, realized something—
Even a Low Tier Dungeon like the White Wax Town Church requires a 15-person team, so how can a Middle Tier Dungeon like the Fir City Cathedral be conquered by just 6 people?
Knowing that difficulties lie ahead, would splitting up again be tantamount to hastening our demise?
Ultimately, [ Clear Soup Master ] made his decision:
"The West Tower, I've been here once before (referring to the fight with Antiya Lisi ), so I'm a little familiar with it."
"Squeak~"
The heavy wooden door closed behind them; they had officially entered the Dungeon.
[ Clear Soup Master ] addressed the crowd:
"Let's advance according to the formation we agreed on before. If anything happens, report it immediately. Even if there's no time to attack or defend, as long as we report the location, it shouldn't be a big problem."
As he spoke, he waved the orange in his hand:
"As we agreed before, we'll use this when fighting the boss, otherwise our field of vision might be limited. Does everyone agree?"
Everyone shook their heads. [ Howling Pothos ] took the lead and led the team forward.
Outside the Dungeon, [ Zhong Lele ], who was recording, suddenly noticed that Ed made a rather unusual gesture.
He gently raised his hands in front of him and then brought them together, a gesture that seemed inexplicable and different from his previous manipulation of the vines.
[ Zhong Lele ] didn't know what was happening, but he felt a slight tremor in the ground.
Outside the cathedral, some scattered bricks and tiles on the top of the building suddenly began to move. Under the pull of an invisible force and visible vines, these broken building materials began to climb up the outer walls of the twin bell towers, and soon formed three parallel passages from bottom to top between the two bell towers.
Ed himself, at this moment, revealed a smile that no one else could see.
Finally, finally, it's time for his favorite Dungeon run again--
In the normal gameplay of " World of Disorder ", Ed always thinks about taking into account the players' gaming experience.
After all, leveling up isn't easy for them, and they have to sacrifice monsters and money to earn money and revive. We should take care of these loyal followers if we can.
But there's only one time Ed reveals his true nature: when designing Dungeon.
Ed has poured all the advanced experience he learned from several "pioneers" in the real world into the design of the Dungeon.
In any case, the Dungeon in the disordered World of Disorder have clear difficulty levels, and players are happy to challenge some of the more difficult levels.
Although Ed designed the Dungeon to be quite difficult, he always gave very generous rewards for completing them, including achievements and honorary titles. Players have always been very enthusiastic about challenging the various Dungeon in the Aduolin Province.
The final Dungeon of Aduolin is now in testing; it's time for players to experience the pain!
Unlike the Low Tier Dungeon, Ed has also added some horror and puzzle elements this time.
He knew that if his design was successful enough, players would both love and hate it, playing it while complaining about it. Within three days, " Ed's Childhood Story" would begin to spread virally on the forums...
Inside the Dungeon, the group of six arrived at the first fork in the road.
They had been walking for five minutes, but had not encountered a single enemy.
If you continue straight now, you will embark on the path to the second floor.
To their right was a closed door, from which came some rustling and scraping sounds.
Experienced gamers immediately recognized the commotion – there were enemies in there!
To fight or not to fight?
The group looked at [ Clear Soup Master ], who was temporarily in command, and [ Howling Pothos ], who had the strongest fighting skills.
[ Clear Soup Master ] nodded and whispered:
"Let's fight. Clear out the enemies along the way, otherwise we'll be doomed if the BOSS summons."
The five nodded in agreement. [ Howling Pothos ] took his weapon and stood ready by the door. [ Great Wei Boxing Champion ] kicked the wooden door open.
In the dimly lit room, a priest was praying before a small shrine on the wall.
The light inside the room was already very dim, but the priest still wore his robe and hood, and in front of him, inside the shrine, was a miniature statue of the World Tree that had been half-eaten by rats.
A sense of absurdity and decay was instantly transmitted to every player.
The sound of the door being broken down came from inside. The priest didn't move his body, but his head suddenly turned around.
His head turned 180 degrees, and he looked at the players in front of him, his dozens of eyes blinking incessantly.
The atmosphere inside the Dungeon plummeted to freezing point at that moment.
"It's a rat!"
[ Good Times Don't Last ] shouted first, while [ Howling Pothos ] quickly threw two Paralysis Bomb into the room and then slammed the door shut.
Countless Thorn Rat darted out of the priest's robe in an instant, leaving the tattered, riddled cloth scattered on the ground.
"Squeak squeak squeak!!!!"
The squeaks of mice came through the door, and [ Howling Pothos ], gripping the doorknob tightly, could even feel the vibrations as the rodents gnawed at the door.
He turned to look at the other players, a hint of confusion in his eyes:
How come there are rats here?
[ The Do Some Farm Work ] had also recovered by this time, and said with a smile:
"Have you forgotten about 'fat man' and ' Little Boy '?"
"Of course I remember."
[ Howling Pothos ] frowned slightly:
"I still remember how Antiya Lisi instantly killed the Rat King, composed of tens of thousands of rats, turning into a pool of blood right before my eyes. So where did these rats come from?"
[ The Great Wei Boxing Champion ] thought for a moment and said:
"I remembered two things. First, a couple of days ago when I was near the chapel, I overheard some locals mentioning that the rat infestation that started a month ago had suddenly disappeared for some reason. Second..."
His tone became more serious as he looked at the crowd:
"Neither the official sources nor Ed seem to have ever said that the Dungeon only contains human enemies, right?"
Thirty seconds later, the sounds in the room completely disappeared.
[ Howling Pothos ] cautiously pushed open the door and looked at the unconscious Thorn Rat all over the ground, his expression becoming somewhat solemn.
"We've gotten stronger, but the Dungeon are leveling up too..."
[ Zhongde ], being a civil engineer, naturally didn't think that much. Looking at the mess on the ground, he kicked up the monk's robe covering the floor, revealing a skeleton wrapped beneath it, and said:
"I should have just thrown the Oil Vine Incendiary Bomb."
It's not that simple.
[ Do Some Farm Work ] took half of a broken miniature World Tree statue from the shrine:
"Friends, don't you think this thing looks like a key item in a game Dungeon?"
