Chapter 457: Something’s Up!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Due to the huge size of Glory, most players were susceptible to getting lost when they entered for the first time. Additionally, there were many parties that had yet to encounter a boss even though they had fumbled about in the dungeon for nearly half a month.

From laser-shooting miniature robots to giant mechs that were tens of meters tall, the early half of Glory consisted of a wide variety of robots. The sheer diversity of them bedazzled dungeon-goers, but they all shared a single feature, which was that they dropped no equipment and only miscellaneous items such as spare parts.

“Kaboom!”

“Kaboom!”

The Iron Alliance’s Elites were currently operating the ten tanks they commandeered to combat a twenty-meter tall humanoid mech. After a fierce battle, the humanoid mech was in shambles, and it was not long before it would collapse.

The humanoid mech was no boss, it was one of the many Elite monsters within Glory, and it was Level 85 and had 30,000,000 HP.

“Spurt! Spurt!”

Black smoke billowed out from the humanoid mech, and electricity shot out sparsely. After making whirring noises for a long time, it finally collapsed onto the ground.

“Annihilate the intruders, protect Lord Yuge…” The humanoid mech was lying on the ground and could no longer move. Despite that, it could still speak.

Li Yi hopped off his tank, ran to the humanoid mech’s side, and disassembled the parts that comprised its body. Only those who had taken up Engineering could disassemble mechanical monsters, and to disassemble a Level 85 monster would require at least a Master-level in Engineering.

Boom! Boom! Crash!

The sparks of electricity from the humanoid mech ceased, and it was effectively a pile of junk now. On the flip side, Li Yi had gotten his hands on a bunch of rare parts.

Pitter-patter!

A Blue Crystal Rock fell from the humanoid mech’s head, and with a grin on his face, Li Yi knelt down to pick it up.

“Finally!”

Li Yi picked up the Blue Crystal Rock and entered his tank.

Blue Crystal Rocks are the memory systems of mechanical monsters, and for players attempting to clear Glory, the first thing they had to do was to beat various mechanical monsters and claim their Blue Crystal Rocks.

Beep…beep…beep…beep…

Li Yi placed the Blue Crystal Rock into the tank’s sensor, and it immediately displayed a map.

It was a map of the first half of Glory!

Within the elliptical layout of the dungeon, there was a region that was spread out in a fan-shaped manner, and the first boss’ position was on the handle of the fan.

“Annihilate the intruders! Protect Lord Yuge’s body! War! Death! Rebirth! New life…”

It was easy to decipher the memories within the Blue Crystal Rock, and even if they had no tanks, the Blue Crystal Rock would automatically read out its contents after being held by players. It was intentionally designed that way for players to uncover the mysteries of the dungeon.

Tens of thousands of players were scattered all over the fan-shaped region, but in reality, there was only one way to go forward. The players would need to gather near the handle of the fan and defeat the boss. Only by doing so could the players advance.

Li Yi commanded, “March towards the West!”

Boom! Boom!

…

Without the map of the dungeon, it would be difficult to locate the first boss. Due to the massive size of the dungeon and the liberty to traverse in any direction, once players make a wrong turn, they could spend days or months wandering about before returning to where they started.

While Li Yi and his party pushed onward, they also encountered Scumbag Wang.

After their long journey, the tank that Scumbag Wang and his party owned had long been destroyed. When Li Yi and his party met them, they were gathered atop the tank and were huddled tightly. There were a number of them sitting on the tank’s barrel as well, and their stay was made even worse by those that operated the tank. Whenever the tank shot out its shells, the heat it caused would cause them to wail in pain.

The Huashan Guild may have lost their tanks, but Scumbag Wang’s best friend, the Guild Master of Century Flower Guild, Hua Feiwu had not. Despite having ten tanks, Hua Feiwu spared none of them to Scumbag Wang, and he only allowed them to sit on top of his tanks as they proceeded forward.

“Lady Hua~ you’re really gorgeous~ Like the crescent moon in the night sky, the sight of your snow-white *ss has been seared within my heart~ Brother Wang can never forget…”

This was a song composed by Scumbag Wang for Hua Feihua. Seeing that Hua Feihua had nowhere else to turn to as she was stuck inside the tank, he seized the opportunity and immediately ordered his subordinates to sing together whilst he acted as a conductor with his shortsword as a baton…

“Crash! Crash! Crash! Crash!”

The ten tanks of the Century Flower Guild collided into one another, tossing the Huashan Guild players on top of it onto the ground.

“Crack…crack…crack…crack…”

The ten tanks mercilessly flattened the Huashan Guild players, and at that moment, a cacophony of agonizing wails could be heard…

Explanations were unnecessary as it was obvious that Scumbag Wang had once again, angered his ‘brother-in-law’, Hua Feiwu.

Li Yi did not know what transpired afterward, as the mechanical monsters around them had been alerted. Their heads flashed red, and they were informing their comrades of their presence. With that, more and more mechanical monsters began to arrive…

Before the monsters could fully surround them, Li Yi and his party quickly left the area.

…

Glory was littered with monsters, and once surrounded, the likelihood of a team-wipe was very high.

Li Yi checked the current status of the dungeon, and at present, there were 13 parties that had been annihilated and there were only 32 parties left.

“Golden Dynasty Guild, 487 players, looking for a team…”

“Snow Song Guild, 213 players, looking for a team…”

“Dragon Group Alliance, 500 players, looking for a team, have ten tanks!”

“God of Massacre Clan, 500 players, looking for a team, we have a map!”

The Regional Channel continuously rang out. After three or so hours of exploring the map, players slowly understood that in order to survive in this dungeon and to be able to clear it, relying on their own party’s strength would be insufficient. They needed to work with other parties to bolster their strength, otherwise, they would definitely be wiped.

“Iron Alliance, 500 players, we’re expanding our team. Those who wish to join, message me the number ‘1’. By the way, I know how to repair the tanks!”

Li Yi joined the buzz as well. The deeper they entered the map, the more powerful the monsters they encountered become. Relying solely on the strength of 500 players….

Was no longer an option.

“Boss, add me in…”

“You’re the god, Dark Wing, right? ADDD MEEE….”

“11111111…”

At Li Yi’s message, several parties that had formed teams with other parties broke up and defected to Li Yi’s team. It was to be expected, after all, he was the Continent’s Number One Archer.

Li Yi rejected no one, and he did not even bother to look at the applicants’ names. He accepted anyone who applied to join the team.

Like a snowball that grew out of control, his 500-man party had in a short span of 10 minutes, exploded! Li Yi had taken in 11 parties, and his party was currently sitting at 4,000 or so players!

“Everyone! Gather at these coordinates quickly! 5114477: 84442134.”

Li Yi sent out a coordinate, stopped his tanks, and waited patiently.

The place they were at was quite close to the first boss’ location. The mechanical monsters that appeared there resembled arachnids, and their sizes ranged from as small as a fingernail to as huge as a hill. Each of them was armed to the teeth, and compared to their previous encounters, the mechanical monsters were ten times as strong.

The arachnid mechanical monsters’ HP was no longer expressible via simple numbers, and they were now shown as 100%. Their resistance against attacks was out of this world, and even after a minute-long furious barrage from the 10 tanks, they had only shaved off 5% of its HP.

More and more players began to join Li Yi’s side. Among them included plenty of Li Yi’s friends, and naturally, there were also a huge number of enemies. However, due to PK being disabled in Glory and in consideration of the benefits gained by working together, unless they were life-long sworn enemies, everyone had temporarily buried their hatchets and joined up.

After Little Drunk Cat’s Number One Secretary, Fire Ice had finished compiling the numbers, she reported to Li Yi.

“All parties are present, no one backed out.”

“Great, inform them to go full speed ahead!”

Boom! Boom!

Kroom…Kroom…Kroom…

Li Yi had just finished issuing the order and the majority had yet to move when 20 red tanks came barrelling over from a distance.

Someone from the Iron Alliance shouted, “Who are you? Halt your advance or we will be forced to fire!”

“We are from the Windcloud Clan!”

The 20 red tanks aimed their sights at Li Yi’s tank and began firing their shells in unison at it.

“Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!”

‘They really mean to attack me, huh? They aren’t messing around.’

“These b*stards have a death wish! Brothers, attack!”

“Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom…”

The nearly 5,000-man party had 50 or so tanks at their disposal, and as such, a mere 20 tanks were like playthings for them.

Before five minutes had even passed, all 20 red tanks were in pieces, and on the Iron Alliance’s side of things, they lost nine tanks.

The players from the Windcloud Clan scrambled out from their broken tanks, and leading them were two figures, one of which was Brother Windcloud Nine, and the other, Windcloud Overlord. They had entered the dungeon as two separate parties, but due to sheer luck, they united no long after.

“Windcloud you Old Dog, what’re you trying to achieve?”

Chen Yang lifted the tank’s cover and snarled while tugging his neck. The last time Brother Windcloud Nine attacked the city, he had died several times to Brother Windcloud Nine, and until now, he still had deep-rooted resentment towards him.

With a casual expression, Brother Windcloud Nine pointed to the leader’s tank, motioning Li Yi to get down.

The tank’s cover popped off, and Li Yi clambered out. Brother Windcloud Nine and his party had devoted all their firepower to blasting the leader’s tank just now, but due to the other tanks bearing the brunt of the damage, the leader’s tank came out unscathed.

“Brother Nine, you looking for me? Don’t tell me you want to reminisce about old times?”

Brother Windcloud Nine opened up his jaw, and right as he was about to speak, a black tank charged its way over at full speed. Brother Windcloud Nine did not even get a chance to dodge and was rammed squarely in the face. He somersaulted a few times in the air before landing on his butt and losing half of his HP.

The one that slammed into him was none other than Chen Yang. He already had a long-seated grudge against Brother Nine and was always wishing for revenge. There was no way he would squander this opportunity presented before him.

“F*ck, our Brother Nine wants to discuss some matters with your boss, so what’s up with that dumb*ss stunt?”

“F*ck you, who do you think you’re scolding, huh? You think you have the right to judge a bad-*ss like me, you noob?”

“Scr*w you! Take me on solo, you *sshole!”

“Motherf*cker!”

“F*cking dumb*ss…”

Both sides were embroiled in insulting one another, and the air was getting tense.

Li Yi waved his hand, instantly silencing both sides.

“Brother Nine, tell me what you wanted to say.”

Brother Windcloud Nine gave Chen Yang a hateful stare before pulling out his longsword and stalked towards Li Yi…

“I’ve come to you with only one thing in my mind today!”
