On the way to Siping City, Artoria, who had been in a coma after using the Sword of Promised Victory, woke up once again.
After asking about the current situation, especially after learning that the other three sword bearers who had saved her were left at the core of the battlefield and most likely wouldn't be able to come back alive, Artoria was so moved that she shed two drops of hot tears … This made Long Yu's heart tremble, as if his heart had been knocked by something.
Outside the ruins of Siping City, the sword bearers who had already received orders from Yanjing City were sitting in three hover cars, waiting for Long Yu's hover car on the way.
As soon as they saw Long Yu's hover car appear, two of the three hover cars immediately flew behind Long Yu to protect his back, while the remaining one blocked in front of Long Yu, opening the way for him.
These three hover cars protected Long Yu's hover car in the core position, as if they were protecting a politician.
"Don't waste time, return to Yanjing City at full speed!"
A deep and cold male voice came from the speaker of the hover car. This was a communication from another hover car. It seemed that this person should be the leader of the team of sword-bearers, the Spirit Sword level sword-bearers.
Under the protection of the three hover cars, the convoy had been moving forward very smoothly, although there were many Yuan Kou coveting this seemingly juicy piece of meat along the way.
However, most of the Yuan Kou's speed couldn't keep up with the speed of the hover cars, and the Yuan Kou's that could keep up with the speed of the hover cars were all killed by the sword qi of the sword ladies of the spirit sword bearers.
In less than three hours, the convoy arrived at Shanhai Pass, the entrance to what was once the world's number one pass in China. After passing Shanhai Pass, they would be able to reach Yanjing Base City in another three hundred kilometers or so.
It could be said that once one crossed the Shanhai Pass, one would gradually enter the territory controlled by the human sword bearers. The area within a radius of 300 kilometers from the Yanjing Base City was basically under human control. There were very few Yuan Kou in that area. Even though there would be Yuan Kou risking his life to barge into that area from time to time, it was impossible for Yuan Kou to survive in that area for too long under the high-intensity patrols of the sword bearers.
However, this did not mean that it was impossible for something unexpected to happen. Some of the stronger Yuan Kou would occasionally barge into this area and carry out anti-cleaning killings against the sword-bearers.
"Not good, I can feel it! A Yu Level Yuan Kou is approaching us!
It was the Four Elephant King, Li Yuanba!
This aura belongs to the Four Elephant Kings! "Artoria, who had been sitting in the back row with her eyes closed, suddenly said in a hurry.
As the previous Yuan Kou, Artoria naturally wouldn't feel anything wrong. This meant that the third Yu Level Yuan Kou who was chasing Artoria, the Four Elephant King Li Yuanba, was already behind Long Yu and the others.
"Ten more minutes, at most ten more minutes, and Li Yuanba's Thousand Miles Cloud will catch up with us!"
Li Yuanba, the King of the Four Elephants that Artoria mentioned, was the first hero of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in the Middle Ages. It was said that his strength could hold four elephants and make them unable to move, so he was known as the King of the Four Elephants.
Among the ten kings, the Tyrant was dead, so the Four Elephant King Li Yuanba was undoubtedly the most powerful one. This was a Yu Level Yuan Kou who walked the path of ferocity. In the entire convoy, almost no one could stop this Four Elephant King Li Yuanba.
Long Yu quickly relayed Artoria's discovery to the Spirit Sword Level swordsman through the communication system. After the other party heard the whole news, he fell into a long silence, as if he was thinking about how to escape from Li Yuanba's pursuit.
Long Yu kept biting his knuckles. In his heart, he already had a whole set of escape methods, but he needed the cooperation of these NPCs.
The problem was that the commanding authority was not in his hands, and he could not command these NPCs at all … He also did not dare to tell his plan to the Spiritual Sword level swordsman, because his plan was very simple, and that was to let these NPCs die, using their deaths in exchange for his own life.
"Changsheng, stop with your team and the hover car, and attract Li Yuanba's attention!"
After a long silence, the leading Spirit Sword Level swordsman made a decision, and his decision was actually the same as Long Yu's …
"Changsheng, later, you will take the initiative to attack Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba's brain isn't working well, he will definitely chase you.
Then drive the car and run in the opposite direction, desperately run … desperately hide. In this way, you might have a chance of survival … "The tone of this spirit sword level sword wielder didn't sound like he would have a chance of survival if he lived a long life …
This Changsheng and his team didn't answer, but the hover car suddenly braked, and then quickly turned around, rushing in the direction of Li Yuanba. Soon, they couldn't be seen.
"The aura of the Four Elephant Kings has stopped … he has started to turn around … his aura is moving away from us."
Five minutes later, Artoria, who had been sensing Li Yuanba's aura, suddenly said. This meant that Changsheng's team had officially confronted Li Yuanba, and they had successfully attracted Li Yuanba's hatred.
In this dead silence, the convoy continued to move forward at high speed.
Thirty minutes later, Li Yuanba's aura once again approached the convoy. The second hover car received the order and began to turn around, heading towards the path of death.
The second hover car delayed for less than thirty minutes. At this time, there were only two hover cars left. The Spirit Sword Level swordsman didn't give another order. Instead, he directly drove his hover car towards Li Yuanba's position.
The Spirit Sword Level swordsman delayed for far longer than the Famed Sword Level swordsman in the previous two hover cars. Although Artoria once again sensed the aura of the Four Elephant Kings on the last fifty kilometers of the journey to Yan Jing City, this time, the Four Elephant Kings hesitated for a moment, and then took the initiative to retreat.
Although the Four Elephant Kings were stupid, they weren't stupid. Years of fighting with human swordsman told him that it was a very stupid thing to approach within fifty kilometers of Yan Jing City alone. There could be two or three Immortal Sword Level swordsman rushing out at any time, and they would take their lives … so the Four Elephant Kings chose to give up.
…
"System notification: Mission 11: Return has been completed. Artoria has successfully entered Yan Jing City and obtained protection.
Dungeon progress: 100%.
"System notification: Congratulations to player Long Yu, player Upright Gentleman, player Fair Lady, player Xue Lei Xing, player Monian, player Ling Yun. You have successfully completed 'King Arthur's Betrayal' dungeon. Congratulations, you are the first team to complete 'King Arthur's Betrayal'.
"System notification: The dungeon space will automatically close in thirty seconds. Player Long Yu can click on the 'Return' button at the bottom right corner of his vision to return to the dungeon's settlement center. He can also wait for thirty seconds and forcibly return to the settlement center."
After reluctantly handing over Artoria, whom he had painstakingly rescued to the higher-ups of Yan Jing City, Long Yu, who was waiting at the city gate, heard the system notification.
Long Yu let out a huge sigh of relief. Hearing this system notification meant that he had successfully completed the dungeon.
Thinking of that, Long Yu could not help but feel pleased with himself.
He had led his team into the 'King Arthur's Betrayal' dungeon for the first time and successfully completed 100% of the dungeon's progress. He had completely crushed the Heng Mountain Sword Sect, Nine States Sword Sect and Yaoguang Sword Sect, who had been stuck at 60% of the dungeon's progress for a month. Especially the Yaoguang Sword Sect. They had managed to invite the recently popular internet celebrity, the Military Governor. So what?
In the end, he was still crushed by him!
Once he leaves this dungeon, he will become a great hero of the entire Brilliant Waves Empire!
He will also become the object of admiration for all the players in the game world. It was I, Long Yu, who had brought them a brand new dungeon experience. It was he, Long Yu, who had used his great strength to achieve something that those good-for-nothings could not even achieve in a month.
I will definitely become even more of an internet celebrity than that Military Governor! Long Yu thought.
He was also somewhat excited.
But he quickly corrected the error in his thinking.
It was just a small achievement. He had only defeated an internet celebrity. How did he become so arrogant?
He must remain calm. He must use a calm and cold attitude to face this small achievement … … when he stands at the peak, that will be when he can truly be proud of himself!
"Leader, are you still going back?
The dungeon is about to close! "
Gentleman saw that Long Yu was still standing there, so he poked Long Yu's waist. Only then did Long Yu realize that it was time to return to the Instance Dungeon Settlement Center.
…
This time, the Instance Dungeon Settlement Center's theme was the Sahara Desert. In the middle of the yellow sand, there were several large sofas. The three members who had stayed in Bing City were already sitting on the sofas, waiting for Long Yu's team. When Long Yu sat down on the sofa, the accountant who had been silent all this time finally said her first line.
"Accountant 2008 is at your service!"
"Hello, respected player Long Yu, player Gentleman, player Fair Lady, player Xue Lei Xing, player Monian, player Ling Yun.
Your dungeon 'King Arthur's Betrayal' has completed the statistics. Do you want to begin settlement?
You can also choose to enjoy the scenery here. Our Settlement Center's theme today is' Sahara Desert '. "
"No need. Please begin settlement directly!"
Long Yu was eager to know his dungeon's rating. This was because Long Yu had just remembered that if he wanted to open up the hidden dungeon as a regular dungeon and receive the cheers of everyone, completing 100% of the dungeon's progress was not enough. The most important thing was to obtain an S rating.
"Okay. Beginning settlement. Main Mission 1 completed; Main Mission 2 completed; … … Main Mission 11 completed; Side Mission completed. Total time taken: 7 hours, 16 minutes, 34 seconds!
"Beginning Mission Comprehensive Evaluation. Evaluation criteria: Unknown.
Evaluation result: F! "
"What? Only F class? Are you guys making a mistake?!
We fought so hard, how can we only get an F rating?
And this evaluation criteria, what the hell is this … … You better tell us, or else I will go to BAT and complain about you … … "
When Xue Lei Xing heard that he only got an F rating, he immediately flew into a rage. What a joke! He had fought for more than 7 hours, and he only got an F rating?
"Shut up!
Xue Lei Xing, F is F! "
Long Yu pressed Xue Lei Xing down. "Also, before the opening of a hidden dungeon, the evaluation criteria are unknown … … this is common knowledge."
Seeing Long Yu's gloomy expression, Xue Lei Xing decisively chose to shut his mouth.
"I am very sorry. Your quest evaluation is F and this is a hidden dungeon. Before obtaining an S rating, the Settlement Center is unable to issue rewards … … your dungeon rewards will be accumulated in the Settlement Center and will be awarded to the first team to complete an S rating!"
"Player Long Yu, your settlement is over. You will be leaving the Settlement Center in 30 seconds. You are welcome to come back."
