Chapter 265: Abyssal Fortress Purgatory difficulty! Terrifying experience points!

Li Yao led everyone

and appeared in the dungeon.

The Abyssal Fortress,

as the name suggests,

is a mechanical fortress leading deep into the ground.

When he first learned about this dungeon,

Li Yao was actually a bit surprised.

A dungeon is essentially

a microcosm of a certain place and time in the Outer Realm Abyss.

A modernized dungeon like the Abyssal Fortress

made Li Yao understand

that the Outer Realm Abyss didn't just have savage monsters,

but also a mechanical civilization with a technological level far exceeding Blue Star's!

The 【Abyssal Fortress】 is a typical strategy-based dungeon.

Aside from the twenty people who enter, there are no other professionals.

The starting point

is an empty room similar to a laboratory.

Opening that door signifies the official start of the dungeon!

Li Yao wasn't in a hurry to open the dungeon.

"You all stay inside for now."

After saying that,

the Void Tiger Armor, Dark-Winged Black Dragon, Devourer, Immortal Thunder Rat, Azure Bird,

and Kha'Zix, who was hiding in the void,

descended before everyone at the same time.

Just by standing there,

their terrifying aura

gave these students a sense of oppression that made them unable to breathe.

"Holy crap!"

"These are Captain Li Yao's summoned beasts!"

"First time seeing so many!"

"These summoned beasts must be at least SS-tier, right?"

"I think more than that. That dragon-kin must be at least SSS-tier!"

"Too terrifying. Each one shows extremely powerful strength. Having just one is basically a guarantee of being invincible at the same level."

"Captain Li Yao actually has so many such summoned beasts!"

Everyone sighed in admiration.

Some of the timid ones, whose mental fortitude wasn't enough,

were actually scared into taking several steps back and falling to the ground.

Li Yao opened the big door.

Outside was a long corridor,

about three meters high and only four or five meters wide.

The Devourer and the Dark-Winged Black Dragon couldn't fit through at all!

However,

this didn't stump Li Yao.

"Dark-Winged Black Dragon."

Receiving the order,

the Dark-Winged Black Dragon opened its huge mouth,

and endless fire energy gathered.

The next second,

Boom!

A blast of dragon breath surged out,

directly burning the door to nothingness.

As the dragon breath surged,

the entire corridor was scorched red and then gradually melted.

In less than a few breaths,

the corridor disappeared, turning into a scorched-black flat ground.

There were ruins all around,

heat waves hit them, and sparks drifted in the air.

The ground was covered with liquid from melted unknown metal.

"Azure Bird, cool it down," Li Yao ordered again.

A cold wind blew,

and snow fell from the sky.

Soon,

the corridor outside the door had been remodeled by Li Yao into a pitch-black platform.

The Devourer walked out swaggeringly.

The people behind were stunned,

not knowing how to describe this scene.

Others are:

"If you can't do it, blame the road for being uneven."

Captain Li Yao is:

"If the road is uneven, flatten the road."

Few professionals would choose to destroy dungeon terrain.

Doing so has a chance of bringing all sorts of trouble,

such as monsters that should have appeared in the next stage appearing directly because there was no terrain obstruction,

attacking the professionals along with the current monsters.

If you're unlucky,

you might even encounter unreasonable hidden monsters.

Unless their strength was overwhelming, almost no professional would choose to do this.

The Devourer led the way out of the door.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

The sound of metal friction suddenly appeared all around.

Several mechanical monsters appeared before Li Yao.

Their lower limbs were long, mechanical legs equipped with springs.

They had no upper limbs; their two arm positions were replaced by machine guns, and the middle was a transparent cabin door.

From the outside, you could see

an octopus-like creature sitting inside,

with countless tentacles attached to the control panel.

Li Yao cast an Appraisal spell.

【Icathian Light Infantry】

【Level 43 (Reinforced Elite)】

【HP:...】

【Strength: 1630】

【Spirit: 0】

【Agility: 932】

【Stamina: 1843】

【Skills: No-Recoil Strafe LV4, Overload Collision LV1, Heat Resistance LV6, Memory Metal LVMAX】

Large dungeons,

because of the large number of professionals,

monster HP will increase significantly.

Unlike small dungeons or wild monsters,

one point of stamina converts to fifty HP.

Looking at the attributes, even Li Yao had to admit

that at this level, the Icathian Light Infantry definitely counted as extremely strong monsters.

Their strength and stamina attributes

could rival the best among professionals of the same level.

The key is

this was only the first floor.

The Abyssal Fortress is about falling into the abyss step by step.

There are seven floors in total, and every floor you go down, the monsters' strength increases significantly!

The Icathian Light Infantry appearing before them

were already very powerful existences in the eyes of other students.

Not looking at the HP,

they were already not much worse than the bosses of Master-level difficulty!

Every single one.

Even a twenty-person team would need a minute or two to solve them.

"Last time the Power Faction led me through Master-level difficulty,"

"it took them a quarter of an hour just to deal with these Icathian Light Infantry."

"Purgatory difficulty attributes are stronger and there are more of them, so I guess Captain Li Yao will need some time."

"Yeah, the key is that these monsters are too hard, and their strength is high, so knights really can't tank them well."

As the words fell,

a scorching sensation hit them.

Another blast of dragon breath surged out.

The dragon breath sprayed onto this group of infantry,

and the powerful impact

meant they couldn't even get close to Li Yao!

The HP bars above their heads dropped off a cliff.

【-...】

【-... (Critical Hit)】

【-...】

One segment of damage per second.

"Stop,"

Li Yao called out quickly.

"Kha'Zix, you go harvest."

Even mosquito legs are meat.

These infantry could provide Kha'Zix with at least a dozen points of strength.

【Killed Icathian Light Infantry, Experience +0. %】

【Combat Training triggered, Void Mantis Strength +1】

"This experience?"

Li Yao was a bit stunned.

How long had it been since he saw

experience points with only one digit after the decimal point!

This was too exaggerated, right?

A twenty-person dungeon—

while monster strength increases,

experience also increases significantly.

Li Yao's output was maxed out,

so he could get 20% of the experience,

while the other nineteen people split the remaining 80%.

Even 20% was far more than the full experience Li Yao got when soloing the 【Ant Disaster Crypt】.

If there were another thousand such monsters, he could level up!

If he was lucky,

he might be able to level up in a day!

As expected of a rare dungeon that only Vice-Captain-tier students are qualified to run!

Li Yao was suddenly full of motivation!
