Chapter 130: The Ninth Level
"Ding ~ The seventh level of the illusion test has passed, and the integrity of the hub is 100%."
Hearing the system prompt, Ji Chen relaxed his spirit, feeling half of the mana consumed in his body, and his face showed a trace of bitterness.
Look around.
With the hub as the center, the broken bodies of countless sea guards are densely spread across a hundred meters of the sea, undulating with the waves.
Although there is no bloodshed, the fierceness of the battle revealed is not inferior.
Ji Chen opened the seventh level of the illusion an hour ago, and although he had some mental preparation in advance, the difficulty of this level was still beyond his imagination.
Level 7, like Level 6, requires the hub to be protected from damage, but the time has been extended from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
At the beginning of the level, there are more than 500 Ocean Guards, coming from all directions, almost twice as many as the entire army.
So from the very beginning they were under a lot of pressure.
Ji Chen could only shrink the army into a circle centered on the hub, resisting the endless sea guards.
Although they finally passed this hurdle, the army suffered heavy casualties.
More than a third of the Naga warriors were killed, and a quarter of the Dragonblood Fishmen were lost.
The pure water sea elves were also broken into the defense line by several ocean guards when the defense line was almost broken, and lost more than a dozen of them.
Now the entire army can be described as suffering heavy losses, and almost every class has wounds on their bodies, either missing arms and legs, or running out of mana.
If it weren't for the fact that he could choose when to open the next level and have enough time for the class to recover its injuries and mana, Ji Chen would have wanted to challenge it directly.
It has now reached the seventh level, but it is still unknown how many levels this god's experiment will have.
He began to count the number of survivors of the current army.
Naga warriors 35 only.
60 dragonblood fishmen.
85 pure water sea spirits.
There were 171 in total, a third less than at the beginning.
The most important thing is that there is only so little Naga warrior left as the meat shield in the front row, and there is no way to protect the back row in the next level.
This situation made Ji Chen can't help but curse secretly.
What's the fun of this?
The offensive of the eighth level will only be more ferocious, there are not enough front rows, once the defense line is broken, the crispy skin in the back row will only be split like watermelons, and there is no way to fight back.
If there had been hundreds of Naga warriors in the first place, such an embarrassing situation would not have arisen.
At this moment, Ji Chen made up his mind in his heart.
After that, be sure to find more Naga warrior recruiting camp cores for this class.
Dozens of them at one time, and hundreds of them will explode in a week.
If there were so many.
He thought of the many players on King Kong Island.
After that, I was entrusted to love Black Silk to see if the players on the island had any recruitment camp cores such as Naga warriors, dragonblood fishmen, and pure water sea elves.
If you have it, you can just smash it with gold coins and buy it all.
After making up your mind.
Ji Chen began to recover his mana with all his might.
Prepare for the eighth level
A few hours later.
The wounded army has basically recovered completely, and the condition has been adjusted to the best.
At the sound of the order, the entire army sank under the surface of the sea again, looking at the surrounding sea with fierce eyes.
Ji Chen's eyes were firm, and his heart moved.
"Ding~ The eighth level of the illusion simulation is opened, protecting the hub from destruction for 3 hours."
In the distance, thousands of Ocean Guards came into view, their big fins with countless white lines on either side, scrambling towards the hub.
The only goal of their pre-programmed program is to destroy the crystal buoy, and any living creature that stands in their way will be torn apart!
Ji Chen looked at the enemies attacking around him, his eyes narrowed.
The mana in his body boiled like magma.
The surrounding sea water was stirred up by the overflowing mana.
The enemy was already less than 400 meters away from them, and their hideous mouthparts seemed to be about to bite their bodies.
Ji Chen had not yet given the order to attack.
The farthest throw distance of the Dragonblood Fishman is about two hundred and fifty meters.
The pure water sea elf is about two hundred meters.
This is the distance that can maximize the killing efficiency.
This is the experience gained after many battles.
Three hundred meters.
Ji Chen gave the order to prepare for battle.
Two hundred and five meters.
Sixty dracads shot out of their tridents and flew away with a stream of white water.
Crush an equal number of enemies.
But that's a drop in the bucket for thousands of ocean guards.
It can't even hinder the momentum of their charge in the slightest.
Two hundred meters.
Eighty-five pure water sea spirits cast spells in unison, shooting hundreds of water arrows like torpedoes.
The chaotic currents generated by the explosion of the water arrows shook the enemy's figures, and many of the Ocean Guardians who were close to the explosion point were crushed into pieces by the raging water.
But more of the Guardians of the Seas, still on the charge.
The distance of 200 meters was reduced to less than 100 meters in the blink of an eye.
There are more than eight hundred sea guards, and they have almost rushed in front of them.
At this time, Ji Chen's hands were raised, and surging mana gushed out.
The attacking enemy did not see it, and the sea beneath them suddenly churned upward, rushing under them in half a breath, carrying them with inertia and slamming them out of the sea and into the sky.
The Ocean Guardian can move freely in the water, but now they are like landlubbers in the air, and they can only watch themselves rise into the air with their big fins flapping weakly.
Ten meters.
Twenty meters.
Fifty meters.
Eighty meters.
When they reached a height of 100 meters, the inertia they carried on them was exhausted and they began to move in free fall.
A height of 100 meters falls on the surface of the sea, which is almost indistinguishable from falling directly on the ground.
With a snap, they fell into the sea like dumplings.
Even the Ocean Guardian, whose body is made of special alchemy materials, could not withstand this violent impact.
The moment he touched the sea, his body was torn apart.
Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on Ji Chen's face.
This is his newly developed routine, which is very simple and crude.
Use sea water to send enemies flying into the air, then use gravity to kill them.
This saves mana compared to the condensation blade that would come from killing enemies, and the effect is incredibly good.
This wave only consumed a quarter of his mana, but it killed more than 800 Ocean Guardians.
After this one-time reimbursement, a second wave appeared after a full half an hour.
There are still thousands of sea guards.
The battle began.
On the surface of the sea, the wreckage of the Sea Guardian sometimes emerges, others are knocked into the air and fall into the sea and are torn apart, and the corpses of Naga warriors, drake-blooded fishmen, and pure water sea elves are revealed.
Beneath the silent sea.
The fight is going on all the time.
...
Ji Chen controlled the water blade and smashed the ocean guard in front of him.
I was relieved, but my eyes also flashed a little tired.
No matter how much the Tidelord class strengthens his body, he still feels tired after commanding an army and fighting with all his might for hours.
More than two hours to come.
They don't know how many sea guards they have killed, and the broken bodies have covered the entire sea, and the sea surface in a radius of tens of meters has even piled up into a layer of wreckage several meters thick.
At this time, only two or three Naga warriors remained.
These loyal guards are still fighting stubbornly, even if they are completely depleted.
If the bone blade is bitten off, it will be used to bite the arm, and if the arm is broken, it will be bitten with the mouth, until it is finally torn apart and the body is submerged in the deep sea.
And the Dragonblood Fish-People are only in the single digits.
Each dragonblood fish-man killed at least ten times as many enemies, but although their individual combat power was strong, they could not withstand the siege of enemies more than ten times their size, and they fell one after another.
In the rear, there are less than ten pure water sea elves left.
The three classes can be said to have basically been wiped out.
At this point in the battle, only Anina of the three heroes still retains her combat strength, but she also has some injuries.
And Alice's mana had already been exhausted, and she leaned against the hub with a pale face, her eyes full of unwillingness.
In the face of these alchemical creations, her most powerful temptation power was completely useless, otherwise she would be able to easily deal with many enemies.
Running Boer was also covered in wounds, his eyes were sluggish, and when the previous defense line almost collapsed, and the hub was about to be attacked, it took the dragonblood fish-man as a meat shield to block the attack, and was seriously injured.
Seeing the ocean guards attacking in the distance, Ji Chen looked at the rest of the time.
There are less than ten minutes left until the end.
As long as you survive these ten minutes, the eighth level will be considered passed.
Ji Chen held the mana pendant tightly in his hand, racing against time to recover his mana.
Sparse tridents and water arrows shot out, breaking through dozens of Ocean Guards, but many more were fast approaching.
Anina rushed out, her slightly baby-fat face full of determination.
This girl, who is no more than a teenager in appearance, has already experienced countless trials and battles, and has honed her invincible combat skills.
The will to fight is also invincible, and in the face of hundreds of enemies, he still stands in front without fear, vowing to stop the enemy.
A third of the Sea Guards were blocked by her, but the rest bypassed from both sides and headed straight for the hub.
Standing in front of the hub, they are like a lonely boat in a storm in the face of a huge group of enemies, and they may capsize at any moment.
The rest of the army rushed out, and after killing the last of the enemy, they drowned in the crowd.
Hundreds of sea guards did not stop at all, rushing towards Ji Chen.
Ji Chen ignored the impending attack in front of him, and held the mana pendant in his hand, sucking the last stream of mana into his body.
Eyes lit up.
Raise your right hand.
Once again, the sea was stirred up and the wave of ocean guards in front of him was knocked into the air.
When they were sent out to the sea, Ji Chen's face suddenly became extremely pale, and the mana pendant in his hand finally lost its light, and the mana stored in it was exhausted.
Feeling the emptiness in his body and the completely depleted mana, a trace of bitterness appeared on his face.
At this point, he was completely exhausted and could no longer remain suspended in the water.
When he was about to fall into the deep sea, his arm was held.
Turning his head, Alice was holding him tightly, her face full of worry.
Ji Chen's heart warmed, and he shook his head to indicate that it was no big deal.
Time passed, and the countdown finally zeroed.
Until an extremely pleasant system prompt rings in your ears.
"Ding~ The eighth level of the illusion test has passed, and the integrity of the hub is 100%."
Ji Chen finally showed a relieved smile on his face.
Although he knew in his heart that they could no longer continue to challenge, he was still quite happy to have passed the eighth level.
Now, it's not so much about chasing the reward of the ethereal gods.
It's better to just see how far you can go in the end, and where your limits are?
At present, it seems that he can only stop here at the eighth level.
All the armies have been wiped out, and now only he and the three heroes are still alive, and no matter how optimistic you are, it is impossible to pass the ninth level, which will only be more difficult.
Although he couldn't pass it, it didn't prevent him from seeing what the ninth level was like.
Two hours later.
Adjusting his state to the peak, looking at the only 3 heroes left around, Ji Chen resolutely started the challenge of the ninth level.
But there was no enemy in front of him, but suddenly a white light flashed.
They returned to the stone hall where they had started.
Just when Ji Chen was a little confused,
Suddenly, hundreds of pillars of light shot down, and all the dead classes appeared here.
At this time, the system prompt sounded.
"Congratulations on passing all the tests."
Passed?
Ji Chen couldn't help but be stunned.
But I haven't even seen the ninth level?
As if seeing the doubts in his heart, the system prompt continued to sound.
"There are a total of nine levels of the tower illusion god test, the first eight levels are normal tests, and the ninth level is a test of courage, as long as the challenger opens the ninth level with the will to challenge the limit, it is considered to have passed."
"The rewards of the gods, please go to the platform on the other side of the hall to claim them."
After a while, Ji Chen came back to his senses.
The face was a little strange.
Anyway, it always feels like a bit of child's play.
But no matter what, he still has some expectations for the rewards of the so-called gods.
Being named a god shouldn't be an ordinary thing, right?
At the end of the system prompt, the white barrier of the passage on the other side of the hall quietly disappeared.
Ji Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart and strode away.
At the end of the floating passage is a high platform.
Stepping on the steps to the high platform, three stone pillars appeared in front of me.
Staring, there is something on the three stone pillars, and on the left stone pillar is a diamond-shaped blue crystal.
At first glance, it looks like there is some kind of strange energy.
What is this?
With curiosity, Ji Chen took it in his hand and looked at it.
【Control Crystal】
[Grade]: Special
[Effect]: 1 After refining it with mana, you can control all the ruin guards of the entire old land of the kingdom of God, and the ocean guard 2 After fusing the control crystal into the territory, you can make the ruin guard and the ocean guard automatically guard the territory
"it!"
Ji Chen couldn't help but curse with a foul language, and his heart was extremely excited.
He didn't know how many ruin guards and ocean guards there were in the entire old land of the Divine Kingdom, but there were definitely quite a few of them!
These two kinds of guards are so greedy for him!
As soon as the number of ruin guards and ocean guards increased, even he had to retreat.
If they can be pulled back to the territory, with the natural advantages of their alchemy creation, as long as they are set to a good level, it is equivalent to an additional group of guards who are tireless, extraordinary in combat power, and can protect the territory around the clock.
Thinking about it, Ji Chen suddenly felt a sense of distress again.
He'd killed so many relic guards before, how many thugs did he have to lose!?
Distressed, extremely distressed.
However, the first reward was so exciting, making Ji Chen look forward to the next one.
Put the control crystal in and look at the thing on the middle pillar.
I couldn't help frowning.
Is this still a crystal?
On it together
