In the Orderer space, Zhao Haiping is also ready to enter this new trial copy.

Although the Cavalry Trial dungeon has not been cleared and the riding skill has not yet been obtained, Zhao Haiping decided to give it a try first.

On the one hand, it was because he was making good progress in the Cavalry dungeon, and it was only a matter of time before he cleared it; on the other hand, it was because he wanted to see what this new dungeon was like.

Everyone guessed that the dungeon "Heroic and Reckless" was the exclusive dungeon for the founding emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty.

According to the previous new version update announcement, this copy has a single protagonist, and the difficulty is the highest in the entire Dasheng Dynasty.

In other words, players of any identity or profession will play the role of Sheng Taizu after entering.

But the update announcement also said that this time the dungeon is divided into different stages, allowing players to form teams freely and conquer different stages respectively. The final ranking is based on the team's clearance score.

Many players have speculated that this may be because the difficulty of the copy is too high, so it must be played in stages.

The life course of Sheng Taizu started with a bowl and ended with the re-creation of China. Throughout the process, there were too many things left in the history books.

And the challenges he faced in different historical periods were completely different. When he was young, he faced survival challenges. Later, when he joined the rebel army and quelled the Northern Barbarians, he faced military challenges. When he governed the country in his later years, he faced political, economic, and institutional reform challenges.

Players are basically very partial to one subject, and even if there are all-rounders, they are very few.

It is obviously too difficult for one player to complete all these challenges.

Therefore, players can form teams freely, conquer different historical stages freely, and be ranked based on team score.

It's just that players have some differences about "freely conquering different historical stages".

For example, you play the young Taizu Sheng, and I play the young Taizu Sheng. As a result, you acted improperly and starved to death. What should I do?

These specific rules are not yet clear.

Therefore, Zhao Haiping planned to check out the situation first. Especially if he needed to form a team, he had to find a reliable team as soon as possible to rush to the rankings.

After all, the team with a higher ranking when clearing this level can obtain more resources and higher positions in the subsequent expedition of the Orderers.



In the space of the Orderer, the turbulence of time and space continues to roll.

The long river representing the historical line continues to extend into the distance. In front of the dungeon of "The title is not mine", a new dungeon of "Heroic and Reckless" appears.

This time, the extension was longer than last time, and there was some kind of obstacle looming ahead.

It's a bit like a dark, turbid barrier that temporarily blocks the upward flow of the long river of history.

This shows that the frontline of the battle between the Orderers and the demons is temporarily stuck here. Only by cracking the copy of "Reckless Heroism" can we continue to break through.

The copy of "Reckless and Heroic" is like a shining star in the sky. As the main star, it plays a vital role in the entire constellation.

Zhao Haiping took a deep breath and stepped into the trial illusion.

Then, he appears in a new initial scene.

This is a wilderness.

As far as the eye can see, the earth is cracked and cracks are criss-crossing the loess. There was no grass, no trees, just holes left by digging grass roots and dead trees stripped of their bark.

In the village not far away, there were no signs of living people walking around. There were only a few skinny corpses lying on the street, with flies flying around.

small book booth

Such a scene made Zhao Haiping naturally think of a few poems.

White bones are exposed in the wild, and there are no roosters crowing for thousands of miles. There are hundreds of people left behind, and the thought of them is heartbreaking!

This is obviously a scene after a drought.

But not long after, the scene in front of me changed again.

It was still the same place, but this time, a burst of black smoke floated from the distance.

Only when the black smoke got closer did Zhao Haiping realize that it was not black smoke at all, but overwhelming locusts.

These locusts are like a sandstorm, gnawing at all the animals and plants that can be seen in the field of vision.

Soon, they flew away again.

Immediately afterwards, the floods came, and the turbid floods swept everything in an instant, turning everything around them into a lake. The people in the village continued to rise and fall with the floods, and finally disappeared from Zhao Haiping's sight.

Zhao Haiping has not officially started to trial the illusion, so he is equivalent to seeing everything from a God's perspective.

Only when you see this cruel scene can you understand that the "catastrophic cannibalism" recorded in the history books is definitely not an exaggeration, but an extremely true record.

An identity card appeared in front of Zhao Haiping.

The style of these cards is the same as the identity cards in the previous two trial illusions. They are exquisitely shaped and have different identities embossed on them.

There are four identity cards in total, namely [Beggars], [Rebels], [Commander], and [Emperor].

It can be seen that the protagonists on these four identity cards are all the same person, with a square face, broad forehead, majestic appearance, and a domineering aura that is not angry and self-powerful.

However, the appearance details of different identities are different.

For example, the portrait of the beggar is obviously the youngest and his clothes are ragged.

The ages of the four identity cards increase in sequence, from the beggar's teenage years to the emperor's sixties or seventies. The difference is obvious.

However, this time the identity cards are not selected directly with one click. Instead, there is an avatar column under each card, which means that each player can only play one of the identities.

When Zhao Haiping was considering how to choose, a new dialog box popped up in front of him.

[Player Chu Ge invites you to join the team. Do you agree? 】

Zhao Haiping couldn't help but feel refreshed.

Chu Ge? That’s okay!

Just when I was thinking about which powerful teammates to find, powerful teammates came to me automatically.

Click OK now.

A moment later, three figures appeared in front of Zhao Haiping.

Zhao Haiping found that he knew them all, namely Chu Ge, Lu Heng and Huo Yunying.

Not to mention Chu Ge and Huo Yunying. Among them, Lu Heng played Wang Zongchang in the copy of "The Marquis Is Not My Will". He performed well as a combat scribe and left a deep impression on everyone with his unrestricted fighting skills.

“OK, now everyone is here!

"Our team configuration is perfect." Chu Ge said with satisfaction.

Zhao Haiping was a little surprised: "Hey, didn't you form a team with Li Hongyun?"

Chu Ge chuckled: "Who wants to team up with that kind of dog European Emperor! The two of us agreed to form a team to open up wasteland and see who can get through faster. Everyone must perform well. If we lose to him, I will lose face. Can’t stand it.”

Lu Heng hesitated: "Both of us are scribes, wouldn't it be a bit repetitive? Wouldn't it be better for you to switch to an assassin player?"

Chu Ge shook his head: "That's not necessary.

“Career is not particularly important in this dungeon, the key is to complete the mission objectives at different stages.

"The reason why I chose you is because I think you can play a vital role at a certain stage."

Lu Heng was stunned for a moment: "Oh? Really? Which stage?"

Chu Ge: "Beggar!"

Lu Heng: "..."

Obviously, Lu Heng had two things that impressed Chu Ge deeply. One was his high tolerance for pain when he played Wang Zongchang, and the other was his unrestricted fighting skills that could explode even when his body was weak. Very lethal.

Therefore, in Chu Ge's view, Lu Heng must be the beggar.

Zhao Haiping asked curiously: "In other words, you have already arranged these four identities?"

Chu Ge nodded: "Well, I have already thought about it.

"In fact, from the images and names of these four identity cards, you can roughly guess the tasks of each stage.

"Needless to say, beggars and rebels, although the identity of the commander is somewhat confusing, it is not difficult to guess based on his age that he is the commander-in-chief fighting against the northern barbarian army.

“Only the identity of the emperor is more confusing.

"Judging from the image on the identity card, this should be the state when Taizu Sheng was about seventy years old, that is to say, not many years before his death. Therefore, the identity of the emperor is probably a pure puzzle or part of political struggle.

"This way it's easy to distribute: Lu Heng plays the beggar, Yunying plays the rebel, Haiping you play the commander, and I play the emperor."

Everyone nodded: "Yeah, reasonable."

Although the emperor has the highest status, everyone's goal is to clear the dungeon, and it doesn't matter whether the status is high or not.

What's more, Chu Ge is indeed the best when it comes to solving puzzles and political struggles, so it would be safest for him to play the emperor.

"Then what does this initial scene mean?" Huo Yunying asked.
