Whether in games or in real life, ranged units are always the primary targets.
The ghoul legion, adept at swift attacks, quickly surrounded the bishops while their flying units engaged them.
A mage who can get close to a ghoul is no match for a dog, and the same applies to these clockwork bishops; their fragile bodies simply cannot withstand attacks from all sides coming from the ghouls.
Their electric attacks have a casting delay, and they often only manage to land one hit before being attacked countless times themselves. Thus, under the leadership of the ghoul lord, this group of clockwork bishops was defeated one by one.
Without the assistance of ranged units, mechanical units like the Clockwork Knight, which only use their heads to ram, quickly followed in the footsteps of the Bishop.
Although they had mastered the unique skill of a certain streamer in peacetime, "Turning Back and Strike," they had nowhere to use this skill after the space was squeezed by the summoned creatures. In the end, they were dismantled into a pile of parts by the summoned creatures.
The most resilient Clockwork Chariot lives up to its reputation as a unit with high health and defense, stubbornly surviving the relentless attacks from the two formidable Dread Knights and Abominations.
Fortunately, its charge couldn't knock away the Dread Knight, allowing other units to unleash their attacks.
Vampires are powerless against mechanical units, so Liu Nian had them patrol the area.
Tiffany and her mage forces unleashed a variety of energy projectiles and began a ranged attack.
With the mage units joining the fray to overwhelm the war machine, the sturdy clockwork war machine finally collapsed!
[Parts] (Materials Card)
Note: Don't underestimate me because I'm small, I'm omnipotent!
Looking at this funny nickname, Liu Nian retorted, "If you're so capable, why don't you conjure up a girl for me?!"
"If you can't do it, why talk about being omnipotent?" Liu Nian looked around and saw a group of undead units everywhere.
I was actually a little excited just now!
【Amethyst】(Jewelry)
Note: Explore its uses yourself; don't expect someone to teach you everything!
Goodness gracious! Liu Nian exclaimed, "Goodness gracious! This nickname is so cool!"
It's obvious these aren't the same person... um... what a ridiculous story.
This dungeon is so poor, it seems like I haven't gotten anything except materials. Is it just a material dungeon?
It also didn't expect that it would be Liu Nian who came. If someone else had come to place the bet, it would have been almost equivalent to getting nothing.
It's important to know that equipment needs to be repaired. In addition to food, other adventurers also need to pay a lot of repair costs, which is why they can't make ends meet and can only barely survive.
Liu Nian doesn't have to do anything himself, and even when he does something himself occasionally, it doesn't deplete the equipment's durability, thus indirectly saving a lot of money.
The remaining mages rely on the magical damage added by their equipment, so their repair costs and mana potion consumption force them to rely on large guilds.
Thinking about it this way, if I were to travel to another world next time, you know what kind of job I should choose!
Ultimately, it's because there aren't enough crowns; if there were enough, none of this would be a problem.
After cracking jokes and making light of the situation, Liu Nian finally managed to escape the mysterious area.
Although there were still many unexplored areas in this region, the omnipresent shadow monsters made Liu Nian want to retreat. He decided to explore other places first; his life was more important!
Another earthquake occurred during this time, but Liu Nian ignored it and just kept running forward, never turning back even though the Shadow Monster was chasing after him.
With the help of the Goblin Rocket Boots, the Shadow Monster was left far behind by Liu Nian, and after the earthquake ended, it turned into a pile of nothingness and nightmare fuel.
Finally, the ravens lingering behind him carried the nightmare fuel pellets back to Liu Nian as the end of the story.
While searching for the next area, Liu Nian also found several gems and a piece of gold.
It's real gold, Liu Nian swore on with his teeth.
Gold (precious material)
Note: Just tell me if you want it or not?
They continued picking things up until they finally found the passage to the next area.
The next area was much more disgusting, like a maze. The roads were long and narrow, and there were dark abysses on both sides. One wrong step could have unimaginable consequences.
The passageway could only accommodate two people walking side by side, so Liu Nian had to choose a flying unit as his escort again.
The lighting effect of the lantern is undeniable; you can't argue with that.
Seeing that there were large areas of spider webs spread out on the ground ahead, it was easy to guess that this was another spider's nest.
Disgusting as it was, there was nothing he could do about it since there was no portal back.
This dungeon is extremely demanding on your mentality; if you lose your composure, you'll end up like the skeletons on the previous level, forever trapped here.
Unfortunately, as this is a battlefield, the Star Summoning Staff must be used here.
Otherwise, with Liu Nian's current forces, they wouldn't be enough to defeat the Spiders.
Don't doubt his judgment; these spiders, covered in a thick layer of webs, are likely home to countless families, given their vengeful nature.
Moreover, the narrow terrain restricted the deployment of summoned creatures, and Liu Nian had to worry about all sorts of things.
With the starlight shining, the illuminated area was visibly expanded.
Liu Nian took a few steps back and unfolded the dark space, and this time Lamasu was the first to be summoned.
He needed them to block all the passages along the way, giving Liu Nian time to divide the spiders' territory and buy time.
As more and more creatures were summoned, the flag bearer waved his banner, and Lamasu suddenly landed on the spider web. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the surrounding passageways were completely blocked by Lamasu.
Once you know the rules, things become much easier.
Just as Liu Nian had predicted, spiders emerged in dense swarms from the sky and the ground at the edge of the abyss, instantly filling the entire passage.
The Nightmare Horse snorted and kicked its front hooves twice as a warm-up before charging forward with the Dread Knight.
The Dread Knight charged ahead, rushing into the spider swarm along the passageway. Many spiders had nowhere to hide and were directly plunged into the abyss by the Dread Knight.
Don't think that's the end of it. The spider that was lucky enough not to fall into the abyss is about to face a second nightmare. The Abomination then strides forward and activates the Plague Corruption.
The thick green fog spread as the abomination advanced, engulfing the spiders. Spiders that had been slain by the Dread Knight were devoured by the plague before they could even cry out in pain.
Beating up a drowning dog has always been Liu Nian's favorite pastime. Seeing a large number of spider corpses, Liu Nian used Corpse Explosion as his finishing move, something he hadn't done in a long time.
The spiders, who were fortunate enough to escape two rounds of trials, were ultimately defeated by Liu Nian.
As Liu Nian cleared each path, his skills in eliminating spiders became increasingly refined, and he quickly wiped the area clean of spiders.
Perhaps it was because of the sheer number of spiders, but the notifications for the experience points gained continued to pop up in my mind even after the battle was over.
Seeing his experience bar about to be filled, Liu Nian decisively converted all his remaining soul power into cave demons.
Before entering the dungeon, Liu Nian only had twelve cave-dwelling demons, and they were very stingy in everything they did.
Now, a full ten squads of cave demons have been successfully converted. If they encounter a unit that can be controlled by the spider web, controlling it to death will no longer be a joke.
This doesn't even include the Dark Knights recruited earlier; otherwise, the number of cave demons would have to be several more squads.
After squandering all five thousand soul power, the terrain ahead was no longer a maze.
The soft soil was accompanied by a few fluorescent grasses. Before he could catch his breath, heavy footsteps came again.
"Could it be another Clockwork Chariot?" Liu Nian thought, hiding himself behind the Dread Knight and quietly waiting for it to appear.
