The Fourth Calamity: Starting with Dungeon Slimes

Chapter 190 Finally, I can leave.

While they could certainly catch up at this distance, it wouldn't be easy, given the presence of so many other players interfering.

"Damn it, these slimes are trying to move the teleportation array away."

"That way, they can come and go as they please, making it very difficult for us to find them."

Of course, everyone present wasn't stupid. After seeing the players' actions, they naturally guessed what these slimes were trying to do. Although moving the teleportation array was such a confusing move, it was still somewhat absurd. But clearly, now was not the time to think about those things.

The most important thing now is to prevent all of this from happening, otherwise there could be serious problems later.

Thinking of this, they naturally didn't dare to hesitate and immediately rushed forward to try to stop them.

However, it is clear that stopping this is easier said than done.

The players weren't stupid; they desperately tried to create opportunities for their side, since without energy supplies, they definitely wouldn't be able to use the mechs anymore.

Now players need to place it in a hidden place and arrange the stones and other things they have prepared in advance to make the magic circle work, so that they can bring more resources through the dungeon and maintain the magic circle's operation.

In short, the players are fully prepared with the arrangements in mind, but they are also very clear about one thing.

This matter is quite troublesome to handle. At least for now, finding a secluded place is quite difficult. Fortunately, the mechs they manufactured are quite good in all aspects. At least carrying such a large teleportation array is not a big problem.

However, several mechs need to work together to ensure the speed.

"Things are getting serious now. Based on the current trend, I seriously doubt we can hold out for much longer."

At this moment, several players were quickly moving items while discussing the current situation. Clearly, the situation was becoming increasingly complex.

At this point, they couldn't care less about anything else and could only grit their teeth and continue to retreat to a safe location.

"We originally thought there wouldn't be many people here, but who would have thought there would be so many? Now the biggest problem is how to get away from this group of people."

"In short, things have become a bit complicated."

And so, everyone discussed it, each offering their own opinion.

They are naturally very anxious about the current situation, but they also know very well that being anxious is useless.

They were also feeling extremely troubled at that moment.

While communicating, they urgently discussed countermeasures, and the direction they fled in kept changing.

The main reason for the constant changes in direction is that the players on the front lines are constantly changing their combat strategies and using various methods to hinder the enemy's pursuit.

"Everyone, let's hold on a little longer. The player in charge of transport will be able to get out of the danger zone soon."

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy. They're watching us. As long as they keep a close eye on us, no matter where we hide, we'll be discovered."

"Isn't this easy to solve? I've already sent several brothers out. They're mainly responsible for dealing with the people watching us. Once we take care of them, we won't have to worry about anything."

"Okay, now that this problem is solved, I can rest assured."

"So now all we need to do is stop this group of people."

Looking at the chaotic battlefield, the players chatted amongst themselves.

They were well aware of how complicated the situation was, and they knew very well that it was extremely difficult to handle. If it wasn't handled properly, something truly terrible could happen to them.

After all, they had already incurred significant costs when they attacked, and this battle could easily wipe out all their mechs. Under such circumstances, it would be unbearable for anyone to gain nothing.

For this reason, they naturally couldn't just give up so easily.

Just kidding, they've put in so much effort, they don't want it all to be for nothing.

"All the mechs that participated in the battle today will basically have to be destroyed here. If we don't gain any benefit at all, then wouldn't we have wasted our time? After paying such a high price, no matter how bad we are, we must take that thing down."

So far, players have suffered heavy losses.

They hadn't expected the situation here to be so difficult.

However, although the difficulty here is great, they said it is not unacceptable.

After all, it's about opening up a path between the underground city and the outside world; it would be strange if it were easy.

"Brothers, give it your all! Once we break through this barrier, we can start moving around outside."

"By then, things should be looking up here too."

"In any case, we must complete the mission."

As they discussed this, the players also quickened their pace of attack.

Faced with the enemy's massive army, the players not only did not back down, but continued to attack.

One mech after another was destroyed by the enemy, and the players felt increasingly pressured as the battle progressed.

This time, the players suffered heavy losses, far more so than in previous battles.

Even the number of recovered mechs is much less than before.

"Brothers, what's the situation over there? We've suffered heavy losses in this wave. If we haven't hidden the loot properly, then we've really lost a lot of money this time."

"Don't worry, brother, everything went smoothly here. We've already left the territory of those two races, and we're currently looking for a safe place to set up the teleportation array."

Hearing what the players in charge of transport said, they breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the goods were successfully transported out, at least their efforts were not in vain.

With that, after confirming that there were no problems with the supplies, the other players were relieved. In fact, once they arrived here and assessed the situation, they knew they were doomed to be wiped out.

This situation is inevitable.

After all, facing so many people, being able to risk their lives to safely transport the goods was already their limit. It was basically impossible to develop further. However, the players were content.

Once the pathways are open, everything will be much easier.

Because then they will be able to come and go as they please, making it much easier to seek revenge.

While the battle raged fiercely on the front lines, the players who were transporting supplies had already completed all the necessary arrangements.

They were currently in a part of the mountains, where the trees were lush and green.

After confirming that the surrounding area was safe, the players hid here and found a huge cave in the mountains, where they set up the teleportation array.

After finishing all this, the players then arranged the magic stones and watched as the teleportation array slowly began to operate. The players responsible for transporting the stones finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Overall, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Anyway, they accomplished their mission this time, and that's enough for them.

At least their sacrifices weren't in vain this time. "Damn, this battle was truly a devastating loss."

"We have to re-evaluate the difficulty of this game; it's somewhat beyond our expectations."

"6

"That's right. At first, we were still planning to leave, but now everything is ready. We can leave anytime we want."

"It's already very good; one should know how to be content."

"This wave has already resulted in huge losses. Heaven knows the losses will be this big. I originally thought there wouldn't be any losses."

"It can only be said that we oversimplified things."

And so, as time went by, the players' army was soon wiped out.

However, they were able to accept this wave of deaths with equanimity.

After all, this was something they had anticipated and taken into account long ago. Given the current situation, they don't need to think too much; they just need to proceed according to plan.

And so, with the last player finished, the battle finally came to an end.

Once everything calmed down, the players had really lost a lot of money this time.

At this point, almost all the players had respawned, and as soon as they respawned, they gathered together.

"Wow, this is going to be really tough."

"The difficulty was undeniable, and we suffered heavy losses this time."

66

"The losses were far more than just heavy."

The players' losses this time are undoubtedly enormous, greater than ever before.

Basically, the players poured their entire fortunes into this battle.

"We finally managed to build a mech, and now it's all gone."

"What a waste! I should have known better than to go out in such a good mech."

"However, their losses were also considerable this time; our casualty ratio was at least 1:5."

"This casualty ratio may seem high, but it's useless."

The players were immediately abuzz with discussion.

The worst part of this game is the heavy losses you suffer, and the worst part is that you might not be able to recover them. Like right now, without materials, it's unrealistic for them to build mechs. The price of the materials they currently have is skyrocketing. How much of the materials you recovered previously?

Therefore, they had no choice but to spend money to buy materials again.

This significantly increased the cost of manufacturing the mechs, but they had no choice but to spend the money.

This wave has left players feeling rather overwhelmed.

"These people who profit from the national crisis are truly hateful."

"you do not say.

"6

Many players expressed their utter contempt for these opportunistic players.

Such people are really going too far, at least that's how they see it.

However, it is clear that the players who make money do not think so.

They naturally knew the situation here, and they were also very clear about why they were doing this.

Being hated is definitely something that will attract hatred, but what's the big deal?

As long as money can be made, everything is fine. Some of these players didn't even participate in the battle before, even though they knew the rewards were high, but the risks were also great.

As a businessman, it's naturally impossible for me to go and do such a thing.

For business people, what they want is to minimize risk and stabilize income as much as possible. They don't care about getting rich overnight, but they care about how to make money steadily.

Merchants and ordinary players have completely different ideas.

Naturally, people have fundamentally different views on this matter.

For merchants, making money is all that matters; other things are not their concern. However, for players, their primary concern is how to play comfortably. Risks and such seem less important compared to playing comfortably.

Meanwhile, on Jiang Chen's side...

His attention is now mostly focused on the magic circle.

Looking at the magic circle, he was extremely satisfied. What this magic circle represented was naturally very important, meaning that he could freely enter and leave this place from now on.

"After all this time, I'm finally ready to leave at any time."

He felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders. There is a significant difference between being able to leave but choosing to stay temporarily and being unable to leave at all and having no choice but to stay.

Now that everything is arranged here, it can be considered a form of security for me.

After all, if you don't plan things out in advance, what will you do if something uncontrollable happens one day? This is a way to give yourself a backup plan. From this perspective, it goes without saying.

This is equivalent to having a good guarantee.

In the past, if he had encountered a similar situation, he would have had no choice at all. But now it's different; now he can choose according to the situation.

This alone speaks volumes.

"For me, this is naturally a good thing."

"Simply put, I will have more options in the future. Most importantly, we now have a way to go out, and things such as trade and other matters can finally be put on the agenda. This will also solve the inflation problem in the game."

Thinking about this, he was very satisfied.

Overall, he felt very good about this.

However, things are still not very stable right now. First of all, there's the storage location. Although players say it's relatively safe, it's hard to say how safe it really is, as their requirements are very high.

It's not enough to simply say that no one has discovered it or that it's well hidden; that's just the most basic point. In addition, various other requirements must be met.

Otherwise, they'll be discovered sooner or later. It would be embarrassing if their exit was discovered and blocked. Jiang Chen's idea was to build several teleportation arrays and set them up in different locations. This way, he would have multiple escape routes.

Jiang Chen decided to implement this plan as quickly as possible if the opportunity presented itself.
