Armipotent



Darlene made a silly face, blinking her eyes at Tang Shaoyang who seemed the leader of this party. She had read and heard a lot of stories about raiding the boss floor. All the stories she heard from her grandfather included a big party, including when her grandfather led the raiding party. Not because of precaution, but because they needed a big party to defeat the boss.

The glory of her grandfather's adventure was the reason she wanted to follow Tang Shaoyang. She wanted to experience the same glory as her grandfather did. That was the reason she was here, but she realized Ying was a newbie in this dimensional tower and did not know much about the boss floor.

"You need people, more people. The boss is not just a single monster, but it has many minions, hundreds if not thousands," Darlene hurriedly explained about the things they would face inside the gate, hoping Ying would delay the raid and call his people. Even though she could not confirm it from her mouth directly, Ying was an Emperor. An Emperor had an army, and she hoped he would call the army for the raid.

"Really? That's good. We need a lot of monsters to kill," Tang Shaoyang talked about Lu An and Rosalie. Lu An followed him to get the levels, fighting a high-rank beast and monster. Rosalie wanted to test how strong she had become and needed a lot of targets to do some experiments. This was a perfect place to do it.

Darlene looked at Tang Shaoyang as if he was a crazy person. She then tried to explain how dangerous the boss was, but she failed to convince the opposite party to call for more people. Then a thought appeared in her head, 'Did I make the wrong choice?'

"Do you want to follow us? Or do you want to wait outside?" The three people and two pets were ready to enter the gate while Darlene was nine meters away from the gate, separating herself from the group. Lu An was impatient, so he asked the girl, "If you are scared, you should not follow us."

Darlene ignored Lu An, looking around. She was in the middle of nowhere, the grassland. It looked safe but the area was open. There was no hiding spot around if some strong monsters appeared, she could not hide. The remaining choice was to follow the group, but it looked like a suicide group in her eyes. But what choice did she have but to follow them?

She scurried her way behind Tang Shaoyang because she felt that was the safest spot. Then the group entered the gate.

Their vision blackened for a moment before it returned. The same sensation as any other portal. The group arrived in the middle of the desolate land. The ground cracked, a sign that the area lacked water. There was no tree, but a few big black boulders around them. Then the most eye-catching was the pyramid ahead of them.

The pyramid was a hundred meters tall, and it was filled with monsters. At the highest pyramid, there was a seat with a monster sitting on it, looking at them lazily. From the top of the pyramid down to the lowest part, everything was filled with monsters. That was not all, more monsters surrounded the pyramid.

Tang Shaoyang used his Spirit Eyes, and the number of the monster was over a thousand for sure. It was just like an ant nest with the pyramid as the queen.

"There are thousands of monsters, mixed with Hobgoblins, Orc, and Trolls," He recognized the monster. He then hopped on the closest boulder and saw the swarm of monsters around the pyramid.

The others followed him, and they saw what awaited them. Darlene almost fell off the boulder, terrified by the number of the monster. She then tried to take a peek at Lu An, wanting to know what kind of expression he had after mocking her outside the gate. To her surprise, the younger man was grinning, looking excited at the sight of the monster.

Then she peeked at the lady. The red-haired lady did not have any particular expression while Ying had a casual expression. The number of the monsters did not intimidate them at all. She did not know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. It could be a good thing, meaning they were confident to beat everything. It could be a bad thing, meaning these people were crazed people who sought excitement in a battle.

"The number is abnormal…" Darlene threw the useless thoughts away from her head, focusing on the wave. The best she could do was to help with the information she had, but she noticed an oddity, "My grandfather said the minion should not be more than two thousand, but this is more than that…"

The book said the number, and it was after many experiments. The minion number never surpasses two thousand, in any tower. But the one in front of her was completely different. She did not know the definite number of the monsters, but it was at least five thousand or maybe more.

"As a promise, you will stay here and watch while we fight the monster," Lu An did not forget to turn around and reminded her of the promise. He did not want to share the monster with her.

"A-ar-are you sure?" Darlene was lost for words, looking at Tang Shaoyang to seek confirmation. She might be the weakest in the group, but she was still an Epic Rank. While the monsters were many, most of them were not ranked, around level 800 to level 900+. She could help with the weak monster, and she intended to help.

"You can stay next to me if you are scared, but don't kill any monster without my permission, understand?" Tang Shaoyang nodded.

Before she could respond to the instruction, the ground shook. The monster swarm started to move, swarming in their directions. The monster on the peak of the pyramid stood up, aiming the big sword toward them. The battle started.
