Chapter 214 The Desolate World Of Secret Realm, Challenge For Control Of The Dungeon!
Chapter 214 The Desolate World Of Secret Realm, Challenge For Control Of The Dungeon!
A Rank Two instance challenge token, with a market price of around 500,000 gold coins.
The probability of a professional team achieving an S Level evaluation on their first clearance of a new instance is very low.
Under normal circumstances, players won't use instance challenge tokens when exploring a new instance, but rather first understand the instance mechanics.
If a regular professional team discovers a new instance and no one is competing for it, they will continue to repeatedly clear it.
They will only use instance challenge tokens when they have thoroughly understood the main storyline and hidden scoring points of the instance and are confident in their success.
These academy-trained Rank Seven powerhouses are wealthy and value their time, so they don't care about such a small amount of money.
The extra instance challenge tokens are actually the cost of trial and error.
After making preparations, more than two hundred professionals each headed towards their respective target locations.
The mentors stayed at the entrance to prevent powerful monsters from invading and intercepting explorers from other forces.
Chen Yu activated the Heart Seed and condensed an Abyss Greed Spirit.
Behind the Greed Spirit, a flower stem over ten meters long was pulled out, blooming into a huge man-eating flower.
On the way, Chen Yu stood on top of the man-eating flower, overlooking the land.
The entire Secret Realm presented a scene of decay.
Between the dilapidated city ruins, one could barely make out the outlines of roads.
The land in the wilderness was severely desertified. Only a small amount of low, stubborn weeds grew.
There were no clouds in the sky.
Looking up, one would see clusters of dark halos floating in the distant horizon.
This was the only source of light in the entire Secret Realm.
Above the halos was endless darkness.
The Secret Realm was not large, and soon Chen Yu arrived at the destination.
Next to a collapsed outpost, he found the instance teleportation gate.
Without hesitation, Chen Yu took out an instance challenge token and chose to use it.
The jade token in his hand turned into a stream of light and merged into the instance teleportation gate.
[Hint: You have used an instance challenge token.]
[Hint: After entering this instance, you can only choose the highest difficulty. If you achieve an S Level evaluation in this challenge, you will gain control of the instance. During the challenge, other players cannot enter this instance.]
[Hint: If you do not enter the instance within 24 hours, the instance challenge token will become invalid.]
Chen Yu walked into the instance teleportation gate, and information prompts appeared.
Instance Name: Battle of the Vanguard
Level Restriction: 100-150
Player Limit: Less than or equal to 8 people
Instance Cooldown: 7 days
[Hint: Level adaptation completed, player adaptation completed, instance cooldown completed, entering the instance, please choose the difficulty.]
[Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare, Inferno]
[Hint: Due to your use of an instance challenge token, Inferno difficulty is automatically selected.]
[Enter the instance?]
"Yes"
After confirming the selection, the scene changed.
Chen Yu found himself in a military camp.
The earth was covered in silver, a vast expanse.
Snowflakes fell from the sky, piling up thick layers on the tents and watchtowers.
The soldiers in the camp seemed to be a mixed bag.
Some were disciplined, while others were more relaxed.
Chen Yu put on his glasses and released the detection spell.
[Heraldic Elite Vanguard Army, Level 140 Elite]
[Heraldic Vanguard Army, Level 130 Minion]
[Heraldic Adventurer, Level 105 Minion]
[Heraldic Adventurer, Level 150 Elite]
...
"Heraldic Adventurers?"
Chen Yu suddenly remembered that in the copy of the college entrance examination ranking competition, the identity of the candidates was that of adventurers.
At this moment, in the center of the military camp, a general dressed in black armor began to speak.
"Warriors of the kingdom!"
"This is our first battle in launching a counterattack against the Stuart Empire!"
"With the weapons in your hands and the crests in the book, tell the Stuart people that Heradic is invincible!"
The general raised his sword in his right hand and held a book emitting a purple light in his left hand, shouting loudly.
"We will win! We will win!"
The soldiers in the camp and the adventurers all cheered.
[Hint: You have accepted the copy mission "Kill Enemies".]
Mission content: Within 6 hours, kill as many units from the "Stuart Empire" camp as possible.
Note: If the number of units killed is below 500, it will be considered a failure.
"Kill enemies? That's too easy."
Straightforward monster-killing missions were most in line with his preferences.
Chen Yu walked out of the camp.
Under his feet, a huge shadow of a vine lifted him up.
This was the heart manifestation of the Legendary Level plant life, the Cloudvine.
It was also the only giant plant life species under his command.
After advancing to the Legendary Level and reaching Rank Two, the size of the Cloudvine had once again increased dramatically.
Its normal state was over a thousand kilometers long, with a diameter of over two meters for the main stem of the vine.
At the root of the vine, some smaller vines had branched out, making its attack range even more terrifying.
Due to being a giant plant, the Cloudvine's attributes were much higher than the Abyss-converted Legendary Level spirits.
However, its weaknesses were also obvious.
The target was too large, the attack method was single, and its intelligence was very low.
But using the Cloudvine was quite handy.
Chen Yu stepped on the Cloudvine and stood a hundred meters high, taking in the entire situation of the copy.
About five kilometers away from the vanguard camp of Heradic, there was another camp with different flags.
From the patterns, it was the camp of the Stuart Empire.
Apart from the two camps and the field in between, there was a vast expanse of white mist.
The Stuart camp had about ten thousand troops, all of them close to Level 150.
On Heradic's side, only the most elite two to three thousand soldiers could match the enemy.
And the total number was only five to six thousand.
If nothing unexpected happened, once a war broke out, Heradic's camp would surely suffer a disastrous defeat.
Ordinary professionals facing this situation would definitely choose to roam on the edge of the battlefield, picking up kills and contributing to the count.
But in Chen Yu's eyes, this amount of troops was just fertilizer.
As long as he released the plant lives, he could just sit on the side and wait for them to finish this buffet.
"But, not in a hurry."
Chen Yu didn't act immediately.
Instead, he walked up to the general and waved his hand in front of him.
"Hello, excuse me."
"Adventurer! State your purpose," the general said mechanically.
"My Book of Crests is broken, can it be repaired?" Chen Yu asked.
"I am not a crest master, but I can take a look for you. I can't guarantee that it can be repaired," the general said expressionlessly.
"Alright."
Chen Yu took out Delia's Book of Crests from the Unsurpassable Sacred Ground.
After Delia disappeared at the end of the college entrance examination ranking competition, this Book of Crests went from being completely ineffective to a state where it was damaged but still retained some of its effects.
The general took the Book of Crests and examined it for a moment.
Suddenly, he knelt down with a "bang" and respectfully said to Chen Yu, "Lord Envoy, please give your orders!"
Immediately, a prompt sounded.
[Hint: You have obtained control over the Heradic camp army.]
[Hint: You can issue war instructions to the Heradic camp army. Under your war instructions, the enemy killed by the Heradic army will be counted in your mission data.]
