Chapter 174: The Limit of Tianyuan’s Regular Strength (3K)_1

Translator: 549690339

For those seasoned lords who were constantly trying and thinking hard about how to clear the levels, the appearance of a newcomer was like a stone that added several points of fun to their monotonic lives.

They were watching.

They were even looking forward to certain situations.

After all, they were tormented by the difficulty of the Land of Challenge, looking for some fun as a diversion could be a wonderful thing.

They even temporarily stopped their progress, just wanting to see how far the newcomer would go. No, it would be more accurate to say they were interested in how long the newcomer could survive on the first level.

“I bet he won’t last too seconds. In 100 seconds, we’ll see the newcomer questioning his life choices.”

“I don’t think it’s that bad. Although I also don’t believe this young chap could pass the first level, surviving 300 seconds is still possible. Being able to get to the Land of Challenge means he’s not weak, right?”

“Doesn’t anyone bet that the newcomer can pass the first level? The first level isn’t that hard… Ah right, it’s still pretty hard.”

Unlike these dozen or so lords who were having fun, one lord in the distance was watching very intently, her eyes almost unfaltering as they stared at the faint light at the bottom of the Red Tower without moving away.

She was here on a mission.

A mission from her… Ahem, her idol.

Although she was older than the Lord of Han Yue City by a few years, she was undeniably a die-hard fan of her and one of the founders of the Han Yue fan club.

Compared to “Lord Mojian”, “Lord Bolan” and others, her fame was more remarkable. She was indeed a Great Lord standing at the top of the mundane world.

Lord of Linglong City, Shen Linglong!

Although her name wasn’t as well-known as ‘Han Yue’, it was still very popular, and most of the old lords and veteran lords recognized her.

In order not to attract attention, Shen Linglong deliberately disguised herself to return to the Red Tower area.

Because,

The mission she was performing was top secret.

This was a mission that Sister Han Yue had entrusted solely to her, such a sign of trust and importance.

Shen Linglong was dressed in heavy armor, completely concealing her figure. She wrapped her entire head tightly in a turban, revealing only a pair of bright eyes that were constantly watching.

She could hear the discussions of other lords in the distance.

“This man is Tianyuan after all. It is not impossible for him to pass the first level with his abilities, but…”

How could the giftedness of Tianyuan even possibly compare with their Lady Han Yue? It was impossible!

Lady Han Yue was the eternal god!

She firmly believed in it.

Inside the Red Tower, the space was boundless, the earth was in chaos.

Mu Yuan stood in its midst, hearing the prompt from the tower echoing in his ears.

“Please choose the units to be deployed.”

“The selected units will enter the battlefield as consciousness and will not really die here.”

The obscure rule told him that the Red Tower could deploy a hundred units, regardless of their type, heroes, or the lord himself.

Mu Yuan was prepared in advance, ordering Dead Bone and other units to stand by in his territory.

He swiped his finger, one by one the names, avatars and job-rank of different units appeared before him.

He selected each one, for battle.

Dead Bone, Duo Lai, Isloa, Rakshasa, Hong Yi, Lu Liu…!

And so on!

Except for non-combat units like Sophia, Daisy, Irene, and Niu Si, Lainey, and Hua Ling who were left to take care of the territory, he basically deployed all his Tianyuan strongmen.

He also selected several Skeleton Generals and Resentful Spirits from the main battle troops to fill in the gaps.

It can be said that apart from him, this was already the most luxurious lineup of Tianyuan, none other could come close.

Having heard about how difficult and horrifying the Land of Challenge was, with many beginners failing miserably and Liu Miumiu repeatedly warning him to be cautious, Mu Yuan would not take this lightly.

‘Ding!’

‘Lineup confirmed.’

‘First level of the Red Tower battlefield is being generated…’

In the blink of an eye, the world transformed.

A boundless prairie came into view, with lush grass and the scent of earth rushing up to one’s face.

This was a vast scene between reality and illusion, similar to the Hero Duel Arena.

The battlefield of the first level of the first tower!

Dead Bone, Duo Lai, and others began to appear.

They had received notice in advance. Miss Duo was excited beyond measure, while General Dead Bone, as always, was calm and reliable, taking command of the formation as soon as he appeared.

But,

Just as they began to form their formation, a rumbling noise came from all sides.

In Mu Yuan’s line of sight, one giant figure after another appeared, densely packed, completely surrounding their entire troop.

“It’s the Ironclad Scorpions!”

The giant scorpions, with their bodies seemingly forged in steel and tails as sharp as needles, not only outnumbered them, but also had a size that surpassed any individual Mu Yuan had ever seen.

Each of them was as tall as a two-story building.

They were like moving steel fortresses!

All these scorpions had reached the Second-Order Elite level, ranking in the middle of the elites!

And there were a total of one hundred such scorpions!

This was not the end, it was just the beginning.

On the bodies of the giant scorpions, light golden auras started to emerge, transforming into nuns wearing black robes, with silver crosses hung on their chests.

Some were young, others mature, while some were petite and others voluptuous. But without exception, they all radiated a strong power of Holy Light.

They were cloaked in light.

Each of them was an elite-level strongman.

And their number was a whopping total of two hundred!

A hundred giant scorpions and two hundred nuns! All of them were in their complete forms, specifically arranged to counter the forces dispatched by the lord. These were the opponents one had to face at the first challenge in the Land of Challenge!

Without enough power, one couldn’t even make it through the main gate here!

Without any probing or giving the Tianyuan Corps ample time to prepare, the nuns rode their giant scorpions, which bore similarities to fortress battle vehicles, and swooped down onto the battlefield.

The Skeleton Generals, who were on the outermost perimeter, immediately clashed with them.

As rare three-star units, the Skeleton Generals were of a higher grade than the giant scorpions, but the level difference was too large. One confrontation caused the generals to stagger backward several steps, their bone hands that held swords cracked, and they almost lost grip of their heavy swords.

At this moment, the nuns on the giant scorpion battle vehicles, working together seamlessly, held up their silver crosses and recited the Words of Holy Light, making the radiant and majestic Holy Light pour down.

Several rays of Holy Light fell together on the staggering Skeleton General, and the pure, warm Light of Purification was like the most severe corrosive poison in the world, causing the Skeleton General’s body to smoke and make sizzling sounds.

Only two seconds later, the Skeleton General disintegrated in the Holy Light, leaving behind a shattered suit of armor clanging to the ground.

At this moment, the battle had been going on for only ten or so seconds.

The ace troop of a hundred from the Tianyuan Territory had already lost more than ten of their number.

“No wonder newbies are strongly advised not to try. This is not a challenge, but a massacre.”

Mu Yuan’s expression was solemn.

The enemy not only had far higher levels than them but also had a numerical advantage, making them too difficult to deal with.

Even the super elites who had evolved to the Skeleton Mortician and Evil Spirit Stage found it difficult to defend at this time.

They couldn’t dare to face these Powers of Holy Light head-on.

At the very center of the Corps, a giant tree was growing continuously.

It was the Tree Demon Granny! It was fully committed, drawing on all of the Earth’s Force and its own power to cast the Venue Skill ‘Realm of a Thousand Woods’.

Rumble

Stout roots broke out of the ground one by one, turning the area of several hundreds of meters into a dense forest in the blink of an eye. These roots were also like pythons, entangling the nuns.

However, the Realm of a Thousand Woods, which could suppress the entire Monster Tribe with the power of one tree, seemed not strong enough at this moment.

Under the sweeping attacks of the giant scorpion’s large pincers, the extremely tough roots snapped one after another, the whole tree realm was continuously being destroyed, obviously, it couldn’t last for long.

The Tree Demon Granny, who had not yet stepped into the elite order, had infinite potential, but its solid strength was, after all, a notch inferior.

However, the formation of the tree realm allowed the elites of the Tianyuan Territory to catch their breath slightly. This advantageous terrain helped everyone withstand the charge of the giant scorpion battle vehicles and turn the tide into a seesaw battle.

Whoosh

Seventeen was standing on the trunk of the Tree Demon Granny, drawing her bow and placing an arrow. The arrow was shot out like a meteor and turned nimbly like a fish, bypassing several obstacles before finally landing on the giant scorpions… where the nuns were.

One by one, she took down the nuns who were caught off guard and blew them up.

In the blink of an eye, she had scored eight kills, achieving the first offensive feat.

However, the next moment, several scorpions’ tails were raised high, and needles were shot out like armor-piercing rounds, shattering layers of obstacles and aiming at Seventeen.

Seventeen rolled and jumped, dodging in a desperate manner. She still got injured seriously, her body covered with potholes, and countless branches were broken off the Tree Demon Granny.

On some of the other battlefields, Rakshasa, Hong Yi, and other generals of the Tianyuan Division began their assault. Initially, using their advanced skills and gifts, they achieved a significant result, but soon they were surrounded by their enemies, leaving them in a desperate situation of defending themselves.

This Land of Challenge was full of enemies who not only outnumbered them, had higher levels, and abilities that could restrain them, but also understood cooperation and tactics, and knew how to suppress the blade of their strength specifically!

Only experienced lords who led a complete troops legion could directly confront these enemies, defeating them gradually with a few powerful fighters.

The Corps of the Tianyuan Territory was just too weak.

At this point, Isloa also began to attack, representing the strongest regular force of the Tianyuan Territory.

Whether it was combat experience, techniques, or hard power level, she far surpassed Rakshasa, Hong Yi, Lu Liu, and others.

Her combat methods were incredibly varied, too.

She navigated the battlefield, teleporting, sometimes gathering wind into a blade to cut a nun’s throat, sometimes solidifying thunder into a drum to damage the giant scorpion’s huge body from the inside out.

She was extremely elegant and contented, like an elf dancing on the battlefield. Even while the giant scorpions continued to besiege her, she easily avoided them, not at all awkward like Seventeen and others.

Indeed, she was very strong.

She also knew how to use the environment to cause the maximum damage to the enemy with the minimum cost.

But,

“My Lord, I’m running out of energy.”

She said helplessly.

Her energy was almost exhausted. Of course, the effect she had achieved was also very spectacular. She alone killed over a hundred giant scorpions and nuns, greatly impacting the overall battlefield and giving others an advantage.

However, such extreme operations exhausted Isloa greatly.

Even to kill an Ironclad Scorpion with one strike, she had to try her best. Even killing the nuns took quite a bit of her energy – the elite nuns weren’t as delicate as they appeared to be, they could break walls and destroy buildings with just their bodily strength.

If she hadn’t delicately controlled her energy, using it sparingly, she would have been drained a few minutes ago.

‘Our side: 4.6’

‘Enemy side: 69’

Isloa was panting hard, but it was she who with her own strength turned the tide of the entire battlefield and established the chance of victory.

If she hadn’t been there, relying solely on the power of generals like Rakshasa, Hong Yi, Lu Liu, etc., they would most probably lose this challenge.

But even with her there, this challenge was not easy to get through.

“The power of individual strongmen has a limit.”

“She can’t support it alone.”

As the fight gradually came to an end, Mu Yuan assessed the limit of the Tianyuan Corps.

The limit in terms of regular combat capabilities.

The power of General Dead Bone and General Duo Lai, on the other hand… didn’t quite conform to the norm.
