Chapter 919 - Titan's Legend
The Holy City of Titan was buried in God's Domain's underground . Complex terrain surrounded Titan City, forming a natural maze . Players could easily get lost within the maze as they searched for Titan City .
Although Titan City was underground, crystals that radiated a bright, blue glow covered the cavern's ceiling . Hence, visibility was not an issue .
After Shi Feng and the others entered the transfer gate, they had been teleported to this maze's entrance .
"This place is spectacular!"
As this was Aqua Rose and Zero Wing's other members' first time here, they were captivated .
Even experts like White Night and Bloodsucker found the scene awe-inspiring .
Aside from the spectacular scenery, ten, towering statues of Titans loomed at the entrance . All ten radiated a boundless aura . In front of these statues, players like themselves were no more significant than insects .
Although they had known that the quest Shi Feng had called them to help with was not simple, after witnessing this, they grew serious .
With their sharp senses, they felt warnings of death from their surroundings the instant they reached this area .
It was especially true for the entrance . It felt more like the maw of a gigantic beast .
"These are just statues, yet they have such powerful auras . Are these statues alive?" Aqua Rose's slender brows creased slightly as she swept her gaze over the statues before her . She could feel the surrounding pressure originating from these ten statues . If they had to fight while bathed in this aura, they would suffer a disadvantage .
"Relax . Those are just statues . Their purpose is to frighten monsters and prevent them from approaching," Shi Feng explained .
These ten statues were the sculptures of the ten saints who had founded the Holy City of Titan .
According to legend, every saint possessed enough strength to rival Gods . Before they had died, these ten saints had used their remaining power to construct Titan Armaments . As long as one equipped the Titan Armaments, one could rival the Gods themselves . However, after several catastrophes struck Titan City, these Titan Armaments had been lost .
In his previous life, Shi Feng had been fortunate enough to see one of these Titan Armaments . Although it had only been a pair of gloves, the gloves were Legendary rank . The gloves greatly increased the wearer's Strength Attribute . Even while using a Fragmented Legendary Weapon, the player that had owned the Titan Gloves had fought a player wielding a Legendary ranked battle axe to a standstill .
Among the equipment in God's Domain, weapons provided the most benefits to a player's combat power, yet this pair of gloves had provided enough Strength to rival a Legendary Weapon . One could just imagine how powerful the Titan Armaments were .
In Shi Feng's opinion, it was possible to rival a God if a player obtained the complete set of Titan Armaments .
Unfortunately, the Titan Armaments were a mystery to players . Even after ten years, players had only discovered three Titan Armaments . Moreover, three different players had owned them . These players had been the targets of numerous assassination attempts in the past .
"Alright, let's head inside," Shi Feng said as he clapped his hands . After everyone took up their formation, they officially entered Titan City's entrance trial .
After several minutes of traveling down the straight pathway, the team halted .
"Leader, there are four paths ahead . Which one should we take?" Aqua Rose asked Shi Feng . "Should we send someone to scout ahead?"
Each path felt equally dangerous to her, so it was impossible to determine which path they should take .
"Which path did you take last time?" Although Shi Feng knew which path they should take, he still asked Youlan .
"We investigated all four paths the last time we were here . Among them, a Great Lord guards the first path, while the next two are littered with traps and ambushing monsters . A large number of mobs guard the last . After we had killed those monsters, we discovered that the path led to another crossroad . In the end, we took the path with the Great Lord . However, after a short distance, three Great Lords annihilated us," Youlan explained .
Truth be told, they had gathered almost no information before the reached an abrupt end .
Hence, Youlan had thought to search for experts to challenge the three Bosses .
When Overwhelming Smile's members recalled the three Great Lords that had ganged up on them, a chill ran down their spines . There were not many players who could face a Great Lord, not to mention three Great Lords simultaneously . Moreover, even a 100-man team would be hard-pressed to deal with one Great Lord here because, aside from the Great Lord itself, there were many monsters traveling with the Great Lord .
Before they had dealt with the three Great Lords, the weaker monsters had swarmed and slaughtered them…
"So, that's the case . Let's go down the path with the crossroad, then," Shi Feng nodded .
"Generally, the path with a Boss it should be the correct option . Taking the path with the crossroad is a waste of time," Youlan explained .
"That might be true in other virtual reality games, but in God's Domain, it is only half correct," Shi Feng said, chuckling . "This is an entrance trial . Our ultimate goal is to pass through the maze, not to defeat the Bosses, isn't that right?"
In reality, all four paths led to Titan City .
If a team were strong enough, they could choose the most difficult path, which contained various Bosses . This path was also the most direct and would save the most time . In contrast, the path with the crossroads, as Youlan had said, would be time-consuming . However, it was the safest path among the four .
Youlan's group had grown comfortable with the mindset of using brute force to resolve issues . Hence, they had chosen to challenge the most difficult path after entering the entrance trial . It was no wonder why they had only traveled a short distance before team-wiping .
The first time Shi Feng had come here in his previous life, he had been just as ignorant . He and his team had insisted on taking the most difficult path and killing all of the Bosses . In the end, they suffered team-wipe after team-wipe .
Fortunately, unlike Youlan's group, his team was not as simple-minded . When they challenged a Boss, they had a Cleric stay some distance away from the team to revive everyone in the event that the Boss slaughtered them . This way, they could challenge the Bosses endlessly . Moreover, as this was an entrance trial, no matter how many times players died here, they would not lose any EXP after reviving; although, they would lose some Skill Proficiency .
After Youlan and the others heard Shi Feng's reasoning, realization dawned on them .
Following which, Shi Feng led everyone down the path with the crossroads . As they progressed through the maze, Shi Feng often deliberately took the wrong path, leading the team into difficult situations and traps . However, with the team's abilities, overcoming the traps and Level 40 or so Elemental Beings wasn't an issue .
After walking for nearly two hours, the team arrived before a large temple . The temple was as big as five football fields, and a pair of tightly shut iron doors sealed its entrance . A steel statue with glowing red eyes that stood over ten meters tall walked back and forth before these iron doors . There were also groups of smaller steel statues patrolling the temple grounds like trained soldiers .
