The recovery of the three people was actually very fast, and they were back to their peak condition in just over 20 minutes.
However, the reason why they waited until an hour later before taking action was naturally because of the cooling down of the summoning scroll.
The Golden Thick-armored Crocodile and the Skeleton Commander had just appeared and fought. They had to wait for an hour to cool down before they could be summoned again. Therefore, to be safe, the three of them could only wait for an hour.
In this regard, the three of them really felt the limitations of the summoning scroll. The cooling time greatly limited its effect. In addition, they only had two summoning scrolls in their hands, so they often had trouble turning around.
However, Zhou Lei soon came around. My brother has already acquired the extraordinary inheritance of beast master. As long as he can be successfully promoted, he can directly sign the golden thick-armored crocodile as his own beast master. Then there will be no such messy restrictions. Well, as long as the golden thick-armored crocodile is not injured or anything, it can be summoned anytime and anywhere.
By then, it will be much more convenient, and Zhou Lei is still thinking about it, it is time to pay attention to some beast masters who can protect them personally, beast masters, 99% of their combat power is above the beast masters, and he doesn't have much Combat power is not enough without a beast that can protect itself. It is too easy to be targeted.
After the summoning scrolls of the Golden Thick-armored Crocodile and Skeleton Commander were cooled down, the three of them ordered a group of murloc warriors to continue maintaining their speed, and then directly entered the Lantern King Tower challenge space.
As soon as they entered this unfamiliar space, a prompt sounded in the ears of the three of them:
"Ding, welcome to the first floor of the lantern space. The challengers are "three people". The number of guardians in this space will change according to the number of challengers. Please select the challenge difficulty."
"This space is divided into four challenge difficulties, namely Easy, Hard, Nightmare, and Hell. The above difficulties increase in sequence. Please choose a difficulty challenge within thirty seconds, otherwise this space will default to Hell difficulty. Once selected, It will be irrevocable, please note!”
After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other and then each gave their opinions.
Zhao Hu thinks it’s better to play it safe, as easy and hard difficulty levels are about the same. Ren Yang feels that it’s too hard after the novice welfare period. After finally encountering an opportunity, he naturally has to maximize his gains, so he can try hell difficulty.
In this regard, Zhou Lei gave in and directly chose the nightmare difficulty.
Because he had only heard rumors about the Lantern King Tower in his previous life, and had never challenged it himself, he didn't know what the difficulties were, so he chose the nightmare difficulty.
After all, the Lantern Fish King who dropped this thing is just a high-level spiritual creature. How can there be no officially extraordinary-level creatures in the Lantern King Tower?
With this thought in mind, he chose the nightmare difficulty without hesitation.
As he made his choice, a warning tone also sounded in his ear.
"Confirm the selection is "Nightmare Difficulty", the challenge is about to begin, please be prepared!"
Hearing this, the three people's eyes narrowed, their bodies tensed, and they stood back to back in a triangle. The location they were in now was a circular closed space with a diameter of about thirty meters. They were standing in the center of the circle.
Because the prompt did not give a specific challenge method, and they did not know the strength of this space guard, the three of them did not dare to be careless.
Not long after, with a tremor all around the space, ten stone pillars rose evenly from the ground along the perimeter of the space.
Seeing this, brilliance flashed in the hands of the three people, all weapons were taken out, and they were ready for battle.
Bang, bang, bang!
Ten stone pillars shattered suddenly, and then ten figures stepped out from them. Looking away, the three of them found that these ten figures were not the same.
Among them are gnolls full of fangs, short but obese war dwarves, and robots whose whole bodies are made of metal. There are all kinds of them.
But soon the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, because the oppression emanating from these ten figures were all the aura of low-level spiritual creatures, which posed no threat to them at all.
Clang, clang, clang!
After a quick clash of weapons, these ten figures were easily eliminated by three people.
Regarding this, Ren Yang and Zhao Hu had doubts in their eyes. If the nightmare difficulty was this, then the Lantern King Tower space might not be able to give any good rewards. It was too simple.
However, Zhou Lei did not relax at all. Regarding this lantern challenge, he had heard a lot about it in his previous life, and the rewards for passing the level were extremely generous. Therefore, the difficulty of the challenge could never be that simple.
"Be careful, it's probably not over yet!"
As soon as his reminder sounded in the ears of Zhao and Hu, the mechanical prompt also followed the next second.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another violent tremor around the space. There were still ten stone pillars, but this time the ten figures walking out of the stone pillars had a significantly stronger aura.
If the ten figures in the first round were all first- and second-level spiritual beings before, then the auras exuded by these ten figures at this moment are definitely third-level ones, and the two dwarves among them are still intermediate-level spiritual beings.
The three people's expressions darkened. There was only one round difference, but the difference in strength was so obvious. If they had to go for two more rounds, they might not be able to survive it based on their strength.
In this regard, Ren Yang, who was originally planning to summon the Skeleton Commander and the Golden Thick-armored Crocodile, immediately stopped thinking and prepared to summon the three people behind him when they could no longer bear it.
Soon, they easily cleared the second round, followed by the third and fourth rounds. Although the threat was not great, Zhou Lei's heart gradually became more serious because his strength increased between each round. It's too big. This is only the fourth level. The ten figures are all mid-level spiritual creatures, and there are even four figures that are already sixth level. Even they have spent a lot of time.
Before the fifth round came, the three of them each held two magic crystals in their hands. The extraordinary characteristics in their bodies were fully activated, and they were rapidly absorbing the extraordinary magic power in the magic crystals. At the same time, Zhou Lei suddenly shouted loudly towards the sky, as if Talking to himself.
"How many rounds are there in nightmare difficulty?"
There was silence in the Lantern Challenge space. Just when he thought there would be no reply, a notification sound suddenly came from the space.
………
The three people frowned, which meant that there were still four rounds waiting for them in the nightmare difficulty they chose.
After swallowing their saliva, the three of them murmured softly.
It’s just four wheels, so it shouldn’t be too abnormal, right?
Soon, the fifth round came. The ten figures in this round were all sixth-level spiritual creatures. Although it took a long time, it still did not pose much threat to the three of them.
In the sixth round, two of the ten figures were already high-level spiritual beings. This time, Zhou Lei was responsible for holding down the two seventh-level war dwarves alone, while Ren Yang and Zhao Hu quickly eliminated the eight sixth-level spiritual beings. Biology, after more than half an hour, this sixth round was cleared again.
The drops of the ten guards this time were pretty good. Although there were no special items, the extraordinary points were not lacking. Each of the three of them got more than two hundred points. Including the ones given in the previous rounds, Zhou Lei had already got more than a thousand points. Zhao Hu and Ren Yang also achieved more than 500 extraordinary points. The harvest was not bad, at least after the novice benefit period, it was already extremely generous.
………
"Yangzi, no, you summon the Skeleton Commander. There are too many of them. Without Zhao Hu in front, it will be difficult to deal with them!"
Following Zhou Lei's roar, Ren Yang hurriedly summoned the skeleton commander. Seeing this, Zhao Hu stopped looking after Ren Yang and rushed out with the silver bone light shield and mace in hand.
Ahead, when Zhao Hu came forward, Zhou Lei, who was blocked in the corner by several high-level spiritual creatures, finally relaxed. At this moment, the ten guards were all seventh-level spiritual creatures, and there were even two eighth-level ones.
If faced alone, he could naturally crush them easily, but six or seven heads rushed towards him desperately, and even he was a little confused.
Now Zhao Hu pushed forward, Zhou Lei freed his hands in an instant, and the pressure was greatly relieved instantly, but he did not relax. The skeleton commander on my brother's side was being suppressed by the three jackals. If he was not careful, the three jackals People can rush to get close to my brother.
The Golden Thick Armored Crocodile must wait until the next round before it can be summoned to pressure the field. As a result, the situation is not optimistic.
…
Zhou Lei, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, did not hesitate. Knowing that he had to fight quickly, he swept out the Army-breaking Frost Halberd in his hand again.
With Zhao Hu sharing most of the pressure, it was easier for Zhou Lei to use his hands. Several high-level spiritual creatures were quickly killed by him one after another.
In the end, before the skeleton leader could hold on any longer, he and Zhao Hu successfully supported him, and three high-level spiritual creature-level jackals were quickly killed.
However, before killing the last jackal, Zhou Lei stopped the two of them and asked them to quickly use the magic crystal to restore the extraordinary power that had been consumed in their bodies.
After the two of them recovered, Zhao Hu took over his position, and Zhou Lei also recovered soon after.
Ten minutes later, when the extraordinary power in his body was almost restored, the jackal also lost its value and was directly killed by Zhao Hu.
The three of them looked wary. The eighth round was about to come, and there was still a tough battle waiting for them.
Boom!
After a violent tremor, the three people tensed up and stared at the ten rising stone pillars.
The expressions of the three of them darkened at the next moment. As expected, the strength of the ten figures in this round was once again a lot more tyrannical. Although there were no ninth-level spiritual creatures, they were all eighth-level. Compared with the lineup in the seventh round, they were much more tyrannical. Too much.
"Yangzi!"
With a soft cry, Ren Yang understood, the brilliance in his hand shone, and the eighth-level golden thick-armored crocodile was directly summoned.
With a roar, the mighty golden thick-armored crocodile rushed out with a fierce expression.
It just happened to be promoted to the eighth level not long ago, and it was thinking about showing off well. In addition, although there were many enemies in front of it, they were all at the same level as itself. With its size advantage, it was not afraid, it was very arrogant.
Of course, another purpose is to show his face in front of someone, so as to avoid Zhou someone from criticizing it every time.
The golden thick-armored crocodile, which was more than twelve meters in size, quickly rushed into the crowd of defenders. With its size advantage, it ran rampant among the ten defenders, and for a while it actually gained a considerable advantage.
Zhou Lei is very clear about this. Regardless of the fun he is having now, the situation will be reversed soon. Do you really think that all ten eighth-level guardians are vegetarians?
The golden thick-armored crocodile seemed to understand, as it suddenly turned around and roared.
It seems to be saying, "Why don't you come and help me? I'm going to be strong, but you can't just give up!"
In response, Zhou Lei and Zhao Hu rushed out quickly. They had been gathering momentum for a long time. Even if the golden thick-armored crocodile didn't say hello, they would go over to help immediately. It was related to the battle situation and was not a child's play.
It has to be said that today's golden thick-armored crocodile is still very powerful. With its huge size advantage, it can bring great help.
Obviously the lineup of defenders in this round was far superior to that in the seventh round, but with their help, the battle ended quickly and was much smoother than the previous round.
When the last space guard was killed, the three of them finally heard a long-lost and wonderful system prompt.
Under the expectant gazes of the three people, tens of seconds later, three rays of light floated down from the top of the space on this level, and then fell into the hands of the three of them respectively.
The three of them clicked on Guanghua, and the next moment, several mechanical beeps sounded in their ears at the same time.
This was what Zhou Lei heard. Ren Yang and Zhao Hu finally obtained 1,000 extraordinary points, which was a huge gain.
You must know that even during the novice welfare period, it will take a long time to obtain so many extraordinary points.
What's more, this is only part of the challenge reward. The other three people also received a special item each.
What Zhou Lei obtained was an elite-grade heavy-duty leggings.
Needless to say, let Zhao Hu equip it directly.
What Ren Yang got was a big sword, the quality was not low, it was a rare quality weapon.
This giant sword was actually quite suitable for Zhao Hu, but after trying it for a while, Zhao Hu was not comfortable using it. He still liked the mace in his hand. In the end, Zhou Lei put away the giant sword and could only trade it in the future. go out.
