On one side of the corridor, the ice minotaur stared at the wall that had suddenly appeared behind them, blocking them off from the pit trap.
After taking a few seconds to calm his thoughts, he suddenly shouted out, “Hey, are you guys alright? Can you make it out of the pit?”
But all that answered him was silence…
He couldn’t help feeling a bit of worry, but then he forced that down as he shouted, “Hey, answer me! Stop wasting time playing around in the pit and let’s go!”
But once again, there was only silence that answered him.
This time, he couldn’t ignore the worry that he was feeling, so he raised his axe that had a blue glow gathered around it and slashed out at the wall.
To his surprise, he wasn’t able to make a single dent on the wall. There wasn’t even a single bit of frost that gathered on the wall even though he had used his Frost Slash skill.
The ice minotaur didn’t believe that he couldn’t break through this flimsy wall, so he sent out a flurry of slashes with his blue glowing axe. However, each time, the same result happened where not a single scratch was found on the wall.
The ice minotaur couldn’t help looking at the wall in shock as he couldn’t understand what was happening.
The axe that was in his hand was made from the finest cold steel that they exchanged for with DP, it was much sharper than any normal axe made of iron or even steel. It shouldn’t have a problem cutting right through these walls, but to his shock, not a single scratch was made on these walls.
Just what were these walls made of?
But since he couldn’t break through them, he knew that it would be wasted effort to continue hitting the walls. There were better things to use his strength and magic on, so he gave up on hitting the walls in the end.
The ice minotaur just simply said, “You better catch up or we’ll take all the glory for ourselves!”
He didn’t believe that his subordinates would die from a simple trap like this…It was just too bad that he didn’t know that his words fell on dead ears.
After all, his subordinates had already been turned into corpses at the bottom of the pit.
As for the subordinates on the other side, they were completely trapped by another wall that had suddenly appeared behind them.
These were walls that not even the ice minotaur could break, so these subordinates didn’t stand a chance either.
But Lin Fan didn’t trap them. Instead, he left the path back open to them to allow them to escape.
This was the reason why he had split them up into three groups in the first place. Otherwise, the walls would have moved much more smoothly when they closed around them and trapped them all in the pit fall.
He wanted to trap one team inside to ensure that he would have a hostage. Then he wanted to leave one group free so they could go back and gather reinforcements to attack again.
The key part of this was trapping the hero unit since the dungeon core could see if a hero unit was dead or not. As long as the ice minotaur was still in his dungeon, dungeon core 627 would send reinforcements to help.
This was what he wanted to see since he wanted to pull away as many of dungeon core 627’s defenses away to allow his own plan to work.
As for the ones that he killed, it was never a bad idea to thin the enemy’s numbers.
The less enemies there were, that meant that there would be less trouble for him.
It didn’t take long for the group that was set free to get out of the dungeon. Waiting outside of the dungeon for them was the relief group that was waiting with the communication snail.
“What?! You’re telling me that you’re the only ones that escaped from the enemy’s territory!? How is that possible?!” Dungeon core 627’s voice came out of the communication snail.
The ones that were having this call with her really didn’t know what to say in response to this since they couldn’t understand what had happened just now either.
After all, they couldn’t explain why they were unable to shatter that wall that seemed like it would be easy to destroy…
After a moment of silence, dungeon core 627 said, “Alright, just stay where you are and I’ll send the second team over to support you. I can still tell that the ice minotaur is still alive, so do what you can to save them and work together with them to destroy the enemy dungeon.”
Hearing this, the spawned mobs felt much better since they knew that the team that was being sent was led by the smartest leader. With this kind of leader, they would certainly be able to see through the tricks of these dungeons.
It didn’t take long for the second group to arrive, but even though they were the “smartest” group, they did the same thing as the first group did. They just charged into the dungeon without sending scouts out first.
They didn’t even notice that they were being watched by Lin Fan’s surveillance.
Not long after they entered the dungeon, the same thing as before happened where they met a pit spike trap.
Their large group was cut right into three parts again by the same trap.
The ones that were left to run away were the same people as before who had to report that they had fallen into the same trap.
As for the “smartest” ice owl hero unit, they were led further into the dungeon until they met up with the ice minotaur’s group.
After they had escaped from the pit spike trap, the ice minotaur’s group had been led around in circles by the ever changing layout of Lin Fan’s dungeon. Even after walking forward for so long, they weren’t able to find a single thing.
Of course they had also tried destroying the walls to see if they could force their way out, but all that happened was the same thing as before. Even using his special axe and his special attacks, the ice minotaur wasn’t able to leave a single scratch on the wall.
Even when he used his combination move with his subordinates, they still couldn’t do a thing.
It was as if there was nothing in this world that could destroy these walls.
So they had no choice but to keep going forward in hopes that it would lead somewhere.
But after they met up with the ice owl group, they were certain that they had been trapped and had no way out of this place. The only thing that they could do now was wait for dungeon core 627 to send more forces to come and rescue them…
When they learned that they had fallen for the same trap, they couldn’t help feeling even more depressed.
As for how Lin Fan was controlling these walls to trap them, it was very simple. That was because these walls were actually golems that he had made that he could freely control.
With the DP that he had been given for the mock dungeon war, Lin Fan had gone through the store many times before finally deciding on the best tactic.
The first thing that he bought with his DP was the Golem Creation Skill that most people would have regarded as useless. However, this skill in his eyes was considered a godly skill because there was a fine print on it that said that it was able to use any materials to create golems regardless of skill level.
That was what led to his second purchase.
He bought a bunch of ores that were very hard. These ores couldn’t be destroyed unless one was in the Golden Core Realm and even then, it would take several dozen hits to destroy these ores.
Of course, with how hard these ores were, naturally they also cost quite a bit more than normal ores. However, since they were just ores, they also were quite cheap compared to other things in the store.
In fact, with the price of the ores, it was much cheaper to buy these ores and create golems with them than to summon monsters with.
And that was exactly what Lin Fan did.
That’s right, he completely ignored summoning monsters and only created golems to fill his dungeon with, but that was more than enough for him.
With these golems that could move around, he could freely change the layout of the dungeon and lure the enemies where he wanted to go. At the same time, with how strong the ore that made these golems were, they couldn’t break free even if they wanted to.
They could only allow themselves to be led down the path that Lin Fan wanted them to take.
But these walls weren’t the only golems that were in this dungeon.
The spikes at the bottom of the pit were also golems. However, these golems had a different function than the wall golems.
These golems only had the ability to attack, but that greatly increased their attack power. In fact, these spike golems weren’t even able to move at all.
All the golems that had been created had been created for specific purposes, so there were many things that they couldn’t do. The wall golems could only defend and move and the spike golems could only pierce through their enemies.
But when working together, they created a powerful defense that no one could defeat.
Of course, this wasn’t the only thing that Lin Fan was relying on to defeat dungeon core 627. He also knew that this wouldn’t allow him to destroy the enemy’s dungeon core, so he had to plan something else for that.
It just wasn’t time for him to reveal this plan yet, so he waited for more and more groups of attackers to arrive in his dungeon.
Just like moths drawn to the flame, there were more and more groups that were sent to attack his dungeon and save the hero units trapped inside. However, as more and more of them went in, there were more and more hero units trapped and more and more monsters that were impaled at the bottom of the spike pit.
Dungeon core 627’s forces were slowly being decimated and Lin Fan hadn’t even sent out a single monster yet. In fact, Lin Fan hadn’t even lost a single golem to their attacks yet.
That was just how efficient his plan was.
When he saw that there were five hero units trapped in his dungeon, he figured that it should be about time to finish this. So Lin Fan gave a nod to Greeny and said, “It’s time, send the signal.”
