Chapter 369: Steel Earth Cleared (1/2)

Iron Commandment obviously did not expect that after Edward and the others left, they would show up once again with a whole bunch of people.

In fact, its processing speed lagged for a moment before it directed the teapot and cage automatons once again to capture the Players.

Still, in contrast to the automatons who fought in a singular style, once there was an increased number of Players with their diverse skills, their combat ability increased exponentially

Holy Lancers and other heavy-armor units would assume formations that easily stopped the teapot rush, while mages staying at the rear would fire their spells. Using the three-stage tactic as one would employ a matchlock squad, they would bombard the advancing foes with an endless, all-encompassing attack.

At the same time, aside from killing more targets, Shadow Rogues and Spirit Swordsmen who could summon spirit familiars had the more important task of finding a breakthrough.

And after about half an hour, the good news was posted on the player forums.

(Terrosche: We found a hidden room that the Boss might be in.)

[Silva: The one inside is called ‘Iron Guardian’, a teapot we never saw before.)

(Edward: Good job. Now come back and don’t do anything reckless.)

(Terrosche: Got it!]

[Edward: What?]

(Edward: No, wait. What did you guys get?]

(Terrosche: We’re going in!]

(Silva: In the name of the God of Games!)

(Edward: ???]

[Terrosche: We died!]

(Silva: The teapots breathe fire.]

(Edward: …]

Were those two here to have a laugh?

Whatever the case might be, the location of the hidden room where they died was marked on the shared minimap that the Players all charted.

Hence, a small division of elite Players built around Edward’s party split out of the Players’ ranks, and charged confidently towards the hidden room.

And when he eventually saw the building marked on the map, Joe can’t help being surprised, “Isn’t it a little obvious for a hidden room?”

It was a cross-shaped steel building that stood around fifty meters tall. While it did not stand out in Steel Earth, it was still rather conspicuous-no wonder the Lucky Koi Brothers found it so quickly out of all the buildings nearby…
