Chapter 1219: Bronze Terracotta Warriors
"Hahaha!" Daniel Williams laughed loudly. "What a joke! Since I'm here, no matter what dangers lie ahead, I will get the Dragon Emblem scroll!" With that, Daniel Williams led his men into the passage to the third level.
Everyone who came here was after the Dragon Emblem scroll. Despite the immense dangers of the House of Rainstorms, it did not deter their enthusiasm. Many were willing to risk their lives for treasure and riches.
Beside the main hall was a stone door that led outside. If someone chose to give up, they could leave through this door. Seeing Peterson Abernathy and Daniel Williams enter, Chris Shelby did not hesitate and led Tiger and his men inside.
Once inside, they arrived at the third-level palace. What they saw was astonishing. In the enormous palace stood countless bronze-cast Terracotta Warriors, densely packed together. Unlike the clay Terracotta Warriors on the first level, these were made entirely of bronze. The bronze warriors were undoubtedly more formidable than their clay counterparts.
Moreover, there were at least a thousand bronze Terracotta Warriors in sight. If the clay warriors were equivalent to a certain level of martial prowess, these bronze warriors were surely beyond that level. Feeling the powerful aura emanating from them, everyone's faces changed drastically.
Bang! Suddenly, a loud noise came from behind them. They turned to see that the original passage had been sealed off. Everyone's faces turned pale; there was no way back now. However, Chris Shelby remained calm and unflustered.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
In the first-level palace, he had studied these Terracotta Warriors closely and discovered that their ability to move and attack was due to some internal mechanism. This reminded Chris Shelby of a prominent family from the Terracotta period-the Enyart family, known for their expertise in creating various mechanisms. It was clear that these bronze warriors were mechanical puppets made by the Enyart family. Chris Shelby had seen an animated series featuring many of these mechanisms, though he had thought them fictional. But seeing these bronze warriors made him reconsider; perhaps the historical records about the Enyart family's puppet techniques were not baseless.
"Be careful," Chris Shelby warned. "These bronze Terracotta Warriors are likely mechanical puppets from the Enyart family and possess powerful attack capabilities. Do not underestimate them!" Peterson Abernathy asked, "Chris Shelby, since you know these are Enyart family puppets, do you have a way to deal with them?"
Chris Shelby replied gravely, "To defeat these bronze warriors, we must destroy their internal mechanisms, but I don't yet know where those are located."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
They had all witnessed the might of these warriors on their journey here. Initially thinking that the clay
warriors on the first level were tough enough, they now faced even more formidable bronze warriors on this third level. The House of Rainstorms indeed grew more perilous with
each level.
As Chris Shelby and his group marveled at this revelation, the bronze warriors brandished their weapons and charged at them. The three groups exchanged glances and then launched into battle together.
A fierce fight ensued quickly. Chris Shelby found himself in intense combat with one of the bronze warriors. With a powerful strike, he decapitated it but soon found himself surrounded by dozens more.
Meanwhile, others also engaged in
battle with the bronze warriors. Screams echoed as members of Abernathy's family and Daniel
Williams group fell one by one to the The royal guards suffered some losses too but fared better comparatively.

In just a short time, hundreds had been killed by the bronze warriors; nearly five hundred people died-a devastating ratio of 1:5!
Chris Shelby fought fiercely against dozens of bronze warriors simultaneously but struggled despite his strength. At one point, he dodged an attack and noticed a groove at the back of a warrior's head-clearly its control mechanism.
Overjoyed, Chris Shelby struck hard at this spot, causing the warrior to stop moving instantly and collapse with a loud thud. He continued his relentless attacks until dozens of bronze warriors fell like wheat before him.
His actions caught everyone's attention, including Peterson Abernathy and Daniel Williams, who soon understood what was happening.
Chris Shelby turned to Tiger and instructed, "Tiger, don't engage them directly; just destroy their control mechanisms."
With renewed vigor from Chris Shelby's advice, Tiger and his men quickly brought down over a thousand bronze warriors.
Seeing this victory, Chris Shelby immediately led his group toward the entrance to the fourth-level palace while Daniel Williams and Peterson Abernathy followed closely behind.
In no time at all, everyone gathered
together again but with significantly reduced numbers compared to when they, first entered-the casualties in this third-level palace far exceeded those on previous levels, especially among those below Grandmaster level who were almost entirely wiped out.
