Chapter 254: Searching for the Entrance (Part 1)

The others did not pay much attention to the two sisters and began discussing how to enter these ruins.

Zhao Yuxin stood in the middle and asked first, "Everyone, how should we get in next? Are we supposed to circle around the city wall to look?"

From inside a blue Tricycle following the Technology Route, a voice neither male nor female came: "Regarding that, I think it should be decided by Brother Chen; after all, this Dungeon was initiated by Brother Chen."

A stout man stepped out of a black Tricycle following the Magic Route, a confident and cheerful smile on his face.

He walked straight toward Zhao Yuxin, taking large strides, and every step was driven by his waist and hips moving his thighs; the entire process was very natural and steady.

His temperament felt exuberant and cheerful, but that was only what the weak could perceive. Because beneath this temperament lay a surging, sharp aura, and this aura always made Zhu Zhiquan feel like he couldn't quite catch his breath.

This made him feel that the other party was a martial arts master, so he immediately drew his Five-Star Sword, stepped one foot onto the car window frame, and leaned his body out of the vehicle. If the man dared to do anything unfavorable to Zhao Yuxin, he would surely send him to the heavens.

The fat man wore a sunny smile, reached out his hand to Zhao Yuxin, and said, "Hello, my name is Chen Ligang. I am the initiator of this Dungeon; you can just call me Brother Chen."

Zhao Yuxin smiled and shook hands with him, "Hello, Brother Chen. I am Zhao Yuxin; I hope you will look after me."

"Haha~" Chen Ligang let out a hearty laugh, "That goes without saying. By the way, although everyone here was added by friends, we don't necessarily know each other. How about we introduce ourselves?"

"That's not necessary, Brother Chen." At this moment, the bald man voiced his opposition, "There are five vehicles and ten people here in total; introducing ourselves one by one is too troublesome. We should just hurry up and start looking for a way to enter these city ruins."

As soon as the bald man finished speaking, Zhao Yuxin and Zhu Zhiquan immediately fixed their gazes on him. Zhao Yuxin even quietly sent a private message to Huang Jing: "Who is this person?"

Seeing the private message, Huang Jing shook her head at her.

Don't know him? Zhao Yuxin noted this information, keeping a calm smile on her face.

Li Yue also chimed in from the side, "This brother is right. Introducing so many people is a complete waste of time; we might as well start exploring the Dungeon now."

Chen Ligang looked at the others and asked, "What is everyone else's opinion?"

The others immediately expressed their views; some felt it was fine since this Dungeon had no time limit, while others wanted to start exploring the Dungeon directly.

Seeing that the man surnamed Chen would not do anything to Zhao Yuxin, Zhu Zhiquan said to Xuebao behind him, "Xuebao, go to the driver's seat and wait. Do you understand?"

"Mm~" Xuebao nodded, walked out of the cabin, and entered the driver's seat to wait for Zhu Zhiquan's instructions.

After giving instructions to Xuebao, Zhu Zhiquan walked straight toward the city gate to examine it closely. The others were attracted by Zhu Zhiquan's behavior and all looked at him, not knowing what he was about to do.

Zhu Zhiquan took a step back, a feeling of rage surging in his heart. At the same time, his muscle density, blood circulation, and bone mass all changed; this was him actively triggering the second effect of the Nether Hunter.

After feeling the changes in his body, Zhu Zhiquan began to inject three points of Magic Power into the Five-Star Sword and immediately launched a Charged Slash at the gate.

Boom!

After a loud bang, all the moss on the gate fell off, and even the city wall five meters away from the gate had quite a bit of moss fall off, but what about the gate itself?

Aside from shaking off all the moss and a small portion of the Vine, there wasn't a single mark on the surface of the gate; it was as if he had just given the gate a wash.

Seeing that the Charged Slash attack was useless, Zhu Zhiquan retreated several steps. Afterward, the air around him began to distort, and the temperature rose higher and higher, eventually forming four fire phoenixes circling around him.

The others also quieted down, watching Zhu Zhiquan perform his maneuver.

"Phoenix Cloud Fire." Zhu Zhiquan pointed his sword at the gate, and the four fire phoenixes took turns crashing into it.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four consecutive explosions rang out, and everyone's eyes fell on the gate, anticipating the result.

Before the flames of the explosion had completely faded, Zhu Zhiquan spun his sword in a flourish and returned the Five-Star Sword to its scabbard, his original sword-wielding hand resting on the hilt, letting the blast's air currents wash over his body.

When the flames of the explosion dissipated, everyone saw that the gate remained perfectly sealed, with no visible signs of damage on the exterior, though all the Vine on the gate had been killed.

"Tch~ Such a cool-looking attack couldn't even break it open. I wonder if that handsome guy is embarrassed."

"The special effects are so flashy, but the damage is clearly 0.5."

……………

Facing the mockery of those around him, Zhu Zhiquan's face remained unchanged. After confirming that he could not break the gate himself, he prepared to turn around and call Xuebao to activate the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon.

"Son, help me bring the gear over." At this moment, Chen Ligang's competitive spirit had been ignited by Zhu Zhiquan's actions, and he called out to his teammate to help him fetch his weapon.

"Hey yo~ You, my 'good son', actually dare to order your father around. Wait until tonight to see how I deal with you." A man wearing glasses entered the cabin and brought out a Meteor Hammer connected by iron chains, each head the size of a watermelon.

Chen Ligang remained unmoved, simply standing in place and striking a pose he thought was very cool.

"Heave-ho~ Heave-ho~" The bespectacled man dragged the Meteor Hammer to Chen Ligang's side, leaving a nearly 5-centimeter-deep trench along the way.

"Here you go, my good son!" The bespectacled man threw the chains to Chen Ligang, his own body hunched over as he gasped for air.

Chen Ligang held the chains in one hand and drew a large circle with the other, bringing it to his chest in a gesture with his fingers curled like an orchid. Afterward, a tiger-headed, human-bodied bodhisattva appeared behind him, gradually merging with his body.

"A tiger-headed, human-bodied bodhisattva? What the hell is this?" Zhao Yuxin felt it was strange to see such a style, and then she quietly asked Li Yue, "What is the name of Brother Chen's skill?"

Hearing Zhao Yuxin's words, the bespectacled man immediately straightened his back and said, "How about it? Is my 'good son's' skill cool or what!"

Zhao Yuxin's mouth twitched slightly; looking at such a jarring skill, she didn't know where to begin.

After the two figures merged, Chen Ligang stomped his right foot violently and let out a tiger's roar toward the sky. The powerful aura made Zhu Zhiquan activate his Nightmare Demon Eye, intending to see the other party's movements clearly.

Swish~

Bang!

Everyone could barely see how Chen Ligang had arrived in front of the gate before his Meteor Hammer had already smashed into it.

This strike caused the ears of the relatively weaker players to ring, and the immense force hitting the gate kicked up the soil and stones nearby.

Zhu Zhiquan frowned tightly, because he had almost failed to see that last strike!

Once the soil and stones settled, Chen Ligang patted the gate with his hand and praised, "This gate is truly sturdy; my perfect strike couldn't even cause a bit of damage."

Then he turned back to look at Zhu Zhiquan and asked, "Little brother, do you have any other way to open this door? Let us see it."
