Chapter 33: The Dragon Emperor's Guardian - The Dragon
roar, a giant fire dragon with flames engulfing its body leaped out of the fissure. Its maw gaped open, unleashing a torrent of searing dragonflame towards the ground!Wow!Zhang Yi, with his hands inst...Zhang Yi knew that this kind of system warning usually appeared only when players were truly facing a threat of death brought by the game world of [Tianqi], just like a level 50 player entering a level 100 wild map.
However, Zhang Yi ignored the system's warnings and continued to venture deeper into the Dragon Emperor's Tomb.
Open the map, and you'll find that after entering the Dragon Emperor Tomb, a description of "Dragon Emperor Tomb" appears at the bottom of the map.
【Dragon Emperor's Tomb】(Unknown Rank):
Description: Dragons are a powerful race that has lived on Earth for millions of years. Their power surpasses that of the human, demon, and alien races. They are also an extremely mysterious race. It is said that a top-tier Dragon Emperor sleeps in this cemetery, which is why it is called the Dragon Emperor's Tomb. The day the Dragon Emperor awakens will be the day the three major races perish...
Because he had survived in the Tianqi world for eight years in his previous life, Zhang Yi had a little understanding of the dragon race, which was still mysterious to later generations.
The leader of the dragon clan is called "Huang," and each Dragon Emperor is the most powerful being in the dragon clan. Before Zhang Yi died in his previous life, he spent a year with Mu Chen Lin, as well as over one hundred top-tier players collecting the [Dragon Blood Scroll], which was obtained by hunting down nine divine dragons of the dragon clan.
After entering the map, Zhang Yi was not attacked by any monsters. He knew that besides the hidden instance, there was only one monster in this cemetery: the guardian of the hidden instance.
Deep in the Dragon Emperor's tomb, Zhang Yi did indeed find the instance entrance between the two massive tombs: a white light curtain!
Zhang Yi's heart pounded in his chest. To think, he had lived for eight years in the Tianqi world in his previous life and had never encountered a hidden instance firsthand! And now, it was only the second day since Tianqi’s launch…
After the excitement subsided, fear took over. Zhang Yi knew that getting through this light curtain to enter the hidden dungeon wouldn't be easy. Before they could do so, players had to kill the guardian of the hidden dungeon, the [Dragon Empress's Tomb].
In their previous life, the squad from Sector 885 spent several weeks trying to kill the Watcher. They attempted it over a dozen times, using up all three revival chances they earned each week by completing survival tasks, before finally succeeding.
This is also what the players in Area 885 said back then to show off in the cross-area chat channel.
Zhang Yi's purpose for this trip was to check the data of that guard. By understanding its data, he could know what level of strength he needed to reach in order to kill it and enter the Dragon Emperor's Tomb instance.
Thus, he took out the [Exploration Scroll] which he had bought for one gold coin from his bag. Zhang Yi held the scroll in his hand and approached the entrance of the Dragon Emperor's Tomb.
Just as Zhang Yi was getting closer and closer to the light curtain, a low and gravelly roar suddenly rang in his ears —
Whoever trespasses the Dragon Emperor's Tomb, shall die!
As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhang Yi saw a red light shoot out from one of the two mounds in front of him. He immediately crushed the scroll in his hand, and in the next moment, the red light flew back into the mound. A powerful red wave burst from the mound, catching Zhang Yi off guard. He was struck by the wave and thrown backward, crashing heavily to the ground. He felt a darkness before his eyes and lost consciousness.
"Ding~ You were attacked by 【Dragon Emperor Guardian · Dragonblood Swordsman】, losing 1538 points of life value. You are dead!"
Turning his gaze, Zhang Yi found himself standing in the Reviving Springs of Hope Town.
Because he was punished for dying, Zhang Yi's level dropped from 11 to 10. He couldn't help but let out a low curse: "Damn it!"
Zhang Yi had planned to withdraw from the Dragon Emperor's Tomb immediately after obtaining the guardian's data, but he was unexpectedly killed instantly!
The first time I was reborn, it ended like this.
Quickly checked his body, thankfully, because he was a white name, Zhang Yi's death did not explode equipment, only dropped a dozen silver coins and a few strengthening stones at most. The biggest loss was that the opportunity to revive decreased by once.
To his astonishment, Zhang Yi opened the memory save interface and looked. Thankfully, he found that just before he died, he had already gotten what he wanted most—
Dragon Guardian, Dragonblood Warrior (Physical Boss Monster):
Level: 30
Talent: Bloodsucking (Dragonblood Warriors are born with a 25% bloodsucking ability, which allows them to convert 25% of all damage dealt into their own health)
Attack: 1055
Physical defense: 790
Magic Defense: 650
Health: 55600
Skills: Ryuozan, Ryugetsuzan, Ryukage-sasa, Ryumetsukyoku, Ryuo Bloodline
Description: The Dragon Emperor's Royal Guard, the Greedy Dragon Emperor's "Shigula", is an immortal dragonblood swordsman who has sworn to protect Shigula for billions of years. Anyone who attempts to approach the Dragon Emperor's tomb will be slain by the dragonblood swordsman...
The Exploration Scroll is activated!
It seems like this wave wasn't a loss. At least Zhang Yi got the data for the Dragon Emperor's Mausoleum Guardians. Now, Zhang Yi can use the data from the Dragon Blood Warrior to formulate a plan to conquer the hidden instance [Dragon Emperor's Mausoleum].
As the guardian of the Dragon Emperor's Tomb, the strength of the Dragonblood Swordsman essentially represents the overall strength of this dungeon. The dungeon monsters in the Dragon Emperor's Tomb are definitely level 30. Besides the dungeon boss, the rest of the ordinary or elite monsters will definitely be weaker than the Dragonblood Swordsman.
That is to say, as long as Zhang Yi improves his strength to surpass that of a Dragon Blood Swordsman and can defeat them, he will basically be able to pass this dungeon!
The Dragonblood Swordsman's attack power has already reached four digits. At least four-digit attack power is needed to counter it.
It's not easy to increase attack power to four digits, it seems like I need to work harder. After all, Zhang Yi's current attack power is only 206, a long way from the goal.
It was past eleven thirty when Zhang Yi patted his growling stomach and walked into a restaurant in Hope Town.
Besides fatigue, players have a hidden attribute called hunger. People can die from exhaustion and starvation.
Similar to fatigue, players' hunger levels reach their optimal state at 100%. When it drops to 0%, players face the risk of death. However, hunger depletes at half the rate of fatigue. Fatigue decreases by 1% every 10 minutes, while hunger decreases by 1% every 20 minutes.
Since the server opened last night at 8:00 PM until now, which is almost 16 hours, Zhang Yi's current hunger level is 52%.
Hunger can be recovered by eating. More expensive food recovers hunger more effectively besides having a better taste.
As a wealthy man with 31 gold coins, Zhang Yi, upon arriving at the restaurant, directly ordered a steak for 50 silver coins and another bottle of red wine for 50 silver coins.real life. Aw, sympathy for three seconds~”Hearing the passersby's discussions, Zhang Yi felt a surge of anger. In this lifetime, with Zhang Yi around, 886 Safe Zone would never repeat the mistakes o...
