Chapter 692: 692

“Don’t tell me your spiders haven’t even found a clue to the next level.” Li Yao frowned.

Over the hours, they had not come up empty-handed. At least, they knew that the mine was layered.

It didn’t take much imagination to know that to escape from this mine, they would need to venture into deeper levels.

“Of course, I know. Since you’re not interested in searching, I won’t either.” Edward sounded slightly disappointed. Despite knowing that Li Yao wouldn’t make a move, she couldn’t help but be on guard. She had wanted to find her helpers first, but she was disappointed. “My spiders detected two opportunities to descend. One is safer but requires two hours of travel time; the other has already been discovered and is about a quarter-hour journey away.”

“Take the closest one. Let your spider lead the way,” Li Yao said.

“Alright.”

...

Subsequently, the Battle Scorpion adjusted its course and charged directly towards the rock wall.

With a loud bang, a large hole appeared in the rock wall.

On the other side, a few players who had just killed several monsters and were reorganizing their loot saw the wall collapse.

Seeing a giant Battle Scorpion, a distant player shivered and instinctively began to attack.

However, their attacks only inflicted single-digit damage on the Battle Scorpion.

The Battle Scorpion wasn’t going to spare them either; its tail laser swept across, instantly killing two of the players.

Subsequently, it rammed into the remaining three players, sending them flying. In mid-air, the Hell Battle Scorpion swung its steel-like pincers, striking them directly.

The three players were instantly killed in mid-air, their bodies rolling on the ground like broken sacks.

Then, it sucked in its mouthparts, and the souls and flesh essence of the five players were inhaled directly into its mouth.

During this process, the Hell Battle Scorpion didn’t stop at all. In the blink of an eye, the sight of the shriveled corpses was already gone.

“Poor kids.” Edward exclaimed with a touch of schadenfreude.

They had already encountered quite a few unlucky fellows on their way, who stood no chance against the Hell Battle Scorpion.

Fighting it was virtually pointless. They could barely breach its defenses. The Hell Battle Scorpion had almost a million hit points, and they could only deal single and double-digit damage, which couldn’t match its rate of recovery.

At the moment, a fierce battle was taking place inside a large cave, with countless players attacking the demons.

In the middle of the cave was a miniature teleportation device.

But the cave was filled with demons, among which there were more than a dozen Warcraft-level bosses.

“System: Found a passage to the next level. Killing the demons here will yield triple military achievements.”

“System: The demon bosses here will drop Military Medals. Wearing them will provide attribute bonuses corresponding to their military ranks.”

“System: Enter the next level, find the teleportation demon, occupy the large cave to escape. And gain a guild building teleportation tower and a Random Troop Training Camp.”

Upon reaching the distant part of the cave, Li Yao received the system’s notifications. His guess was correct; they would need to venture into deeper levels to leave this place.

However, what he didn’t expect was such crazy rewards.

Killing the bosses here could drop Military Medals. Entering the next level and killing the teleportation demon could acquire guild buildings. This was simply insane.

The Military Medals alone were enticing enough; not to mention the guild buildings.

The teleportation tower, needless to say, could connect to the teleportation arrays in various main cities. Even though teleportation was expensive, it was more than enough for the guild’s higher-ups.

The Random Troop Camp… that was even more enticing.

You should know, to stabilize a guild base, the most important thing was the stationed NPCs; relying solely on players was not enough.

The Ancient God World had many professions. Every profession—even every elite profession—had its own camps.

These camps could train qualified NPCs to become certain professions. They could even produce a certain number of elites and silver elites, as well as train leaders.

Even Li Yao didn’t own a camp of any specific troop type, showing the value of these troop buildings.

Seeing Li Yao’s smile, Edward felt a drop in her heart. She knew about Li Yao’s heinous strength, and if he found the teleportation demon, who else could stand a chance?

She had already decided to separate from Li Yao the moment they entered the next level.

“No matter what, let’s break into the next level first. Judging by the circumstances, it’s possible that the teleportation gate has a limit to the number of people it can transport to the next level,” Edward said.

“There’s definitely a limit. But we shouldn’t rush. The Battle Scorpion alone won’t suffice,” Li Yao remarked.

“Don’t forget, I’m not weak either,” Edward countered, sounding disgruntled.

“Of course, I know you’re strong,” Li Yao replied with a smile. “But I don’t trust you. I prefer to hold control in my own hands.”

Li Yao jumped off the Battle Scorpion and added, “Of course, if you insist, you can start right now.”

“Hmph.”

Edward ignored him. It was too dangerous here; as a fire mage, away from the Battle Scorpion, she could be one-shot-killed at any time.

“So, what are you planning to do? Fix these abandoned machines?”

“Exactly.” Due to the teleportation demon’s expanded space, the mine carts here also became quite large. In comparison, the cannons did not link to the mine’s theme and therefore did not change.

Li Yao directed the Battle Scorpion to place the old cannons on the mine cart, then modified the mine cart a bit.

Li Yao still had plenty of artillery shells for the cannons in his Mechanical Space, which came in handy at this time.

He spent nearly half an hour repairing the cannons and securing them firmly to the large, modified mine cart.

He also made a slight modification to the mine cart to make it easier to control.

“Come on up,” Li Yao waved his hand, and the Hell Battle Scorpion disappeared from sight.

“Watching you makes me want to study engineering.” Edward was truly tempted.

“Then go study,” Li Yao responded indifferently. If it weren’t for the Creator’s Hand, he wouldn’t be qualified to repair anything, even if he had the knowledge.

Even if Edward learned advanced engineering, to repair things at will, she could only find a second Creator’s Hand.

Li Yao pushed the lever, and the mine cart started to speed up slowly along the track.

Inside the cave, the battle was still intense, with numerous players forming teams and constantly charging at the monster groups.

But these monsters weren’t pushovers either. The ground was littered with toxins; springs of lightning pulsed everywhere, dropping lightning bolts unexpectedly on some unlucky players’ heads.

The battle was fierce, but for the sake of Military Medals and troop blueprints, everyone was going all out.

“Clear the way.”

The mine cart hadn’t arrived yet, but Li Yao’s voice had already echoed throughout the cave.

Hearing the rumbling sound, everyone turned around in surprise, only to see an old mine cart speeding towards them.

What caught them off guard was that the front shield of the mine cart had disappeared and was placed on the top instead.

From the front, there was a dark gun barrel, and three smaller holes were on the other three sides.

“Fuck, who’s this? Your sister’s a lunatic.”

“This is our frontline.”

“Stop.”

“Quick, stop him; otherwise, our frontline is screwed.”

The front lines of two guilds were blocking the large track, and when they saw the incoming mine cart, their faces turned pale…
