Chapter 580: Take Over Ironcliff Fortress

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

While the Ironcliff Fortress was also a guild headquarters, the fact that it was a system’s stronghold made it fundamentally different as compared to headquarters built by players.

Because the Ironcliff Fortress was a quest reward, it had a complete encampment defense setup. The walls around the Ironcliff Fortress were of the top quality and there was no longer any room for improvement. On the other hand, the normal guild headquarters’ defense required players to constantly improve it to be able to reach this level.

Therefore, this stronghold encampment was born to be much stronger than other ordinary encampments. Of course, to compensate for the difference, the ways to guard these two encampments were very different.

For example, ordinary guild headquarters would have the guild’s gate and the guild crystal as their two layers of protection. The encampment would only be destroyed when these two layers of defense were broken through.

On the other hand, this stronghold encampment was renowned for being a combat stronghold. There were many storylines about this stronghold in the background of this game. Naturally, it couldn’t be destroyed, but similarly, the gate of the stronghold encampment was not particularly durable.

In other words, as long as someone from the inside of the Ironcliff Fortress opened up the gate, anybody would be able to enter the Ironcliff Fortress safely.

This was also the fundamental reason why Berserk Thundergod didn’t leave any subordinates behind. After all, there were all sorts of people in a guild of so many members. There were chances that some of the members could be easily bribed to open the gate. Therefore, he believed that it was comparatively safer to not leave anyone behind.

Because the two guilds were out in the forest to find them, there were no obstacles on Official Road. Very soon, Quan Zhen Sect arrived at the entrance of the Ironcliff Fortress.

At the sight of this legendary combat stronghold, everyone, except Wang Yu and the two others who had been here with him, gasped in excitement.

Ironcliff Fortress was built in between two mountains and was high up into the clouds. It blocked off the road leading towards the Dark Faction and the black crystal rocks on the walls were flashing with radiance. Against such a stronghold, even bringing out the juggernauts, cannons or any other explosive weapons might not be able to weaken it.

The height of the walls was especially frightening.

For ordinary players’ elementary guild headquarters, the walls would at most be two to three metres high. Even if they developed it to the main city standard, it would at most be 10 to 20 metres high. As for Ironcliff Fortress, the walls were so high it pierced through the clouds and one wouldn’t be able to spot the peak. However, a safe prediction would be about 50 metres which was already twice the height of the walls of Vatican City, which was one of the biggest main cities.

This was indeed the legendary stronghold capable of keeping the Dark Faction on the other side of the mountain. This was definitely a deserved reputation.

“How is it? Old Bull, is there a problem?” Looking at how majestic the architecture was, everyone’s initial confidence in Wang Yu’s jumping abilities was diminished.

Wang Yu’s previous record was 30 metres but these walls were at least 50 metres tall. As for the exact height, nobody could be sure because of their limited vision. Even a Magician’s flying skill could only reach 25 metres. For a Pugilist to jump over a wall of this height did seem a little impractical.

“I can try!” Wang Yu rubbed his fists and wiped his palms as he looked up at the walls.

If this was before Wang Yu attained Qing Gong, he would definitely know that this was well beyond his means. Now that Wang Yu was equipped with Qing Gong, he did not only have the four segments jump, there was the Roof Leaps and Wall Vaulting unique skill too. As long as the Qing Gong value was enough, this height should not be a problem for him.

“Don’t force yourself. I remember that there is a secret path. Even though I don’t know if we can still enter from there, we can try our luck.” Ming Du said.

Wang Yu laughed, “If I remember correctly, that secret path should be the entrance of a dungeon quest... Those three BOSSES are not easy to deal with and their men are not too far away. Instead of taking this risk, why don’t you let me try?”

After saying that, Wang Yu ran a few steps before hitting the ground with his pole. He jumped and stepped on the walls as he charged up with [Crushing Blow] and [Flash]. After a series of his skills, he was already up 30 metres high. Following that, Wang Yu fastened his hands onto the walls before he started to climb up...

Yes, climb... Just like Spiderman. The game designers’ idea of Roof Leaps and Wall Vaulting was completely different from Wang Yu’s idea of it. This should be called Roof Climbing and Wall Vaulting instead.

While this looked ugly, Wang Yu’s climbing speed was not considered slow. Very soon, Wang Yu climbed reached the 50 metres mark as his head poked through the clouds to see the top.

“F*ck! How high is this wall?!”

When Wang Yu saw the real height of the Ironcliff Fortress, he couldn’t help but curse. The shocking truth was that the portion of the wall beneath the clouds was only half of the actual height. Beyond the cloud, there was another half of the wall.

Fortunately, he hadn’t used the four segments jump. Otherwise, even his Qing Gong might not be able to cover the remaining distance.

Wang Yu was on all four limbs as he continued climbing. While he was climbing, the Qing Gong value was being exhausted four folds. Even though Wang Yu’s exhaustion was cut halved, climbing was never going to be faster than jumping. Very quickly, the Qing Gong valued was left with half.

As Wang Yu climbed, he was also estimating the distance to the top of the wall. When his Qing Gong value was left with about 300 points, he executed his four segments jump and jumped over 20 metres. When Wang Yu was still several metres away from the top, Wang Yu’s Qing Gong value had been depleted to zero.

Wang Yu looked down and saw that he was already over a hundred metres high up in the sky. At this moment, he no longer had any skill too. If he fell off now, death...

The walls of the Ironcliff Fortress were sturdy so no weapons could pierce through it. He wouldn’t be able to continue ascending the wall with his sword. At this moment, Wang Yu’s body was slowly sinking down.

At the time of life and death, Wang Yu took out his Flying Dragon Rope to throw it upwards. The rope skyrocketed up and over the wall and was held firmly by the wall. Wang Yu’s body tightened, and he stopped sinking down. With the help of the rope, he climbed up the wall.

When Wang Yu finally arrived at the top, he wiped the sweat off his forehead. Fortunately, he reacted fast enough. Otherwise, he would already be dead by now. Even though the rope didn’t have any attributes, it was extremely useful as an ordinary rope by itself. It seemed like this plaything needed to be reforged in case of a possible period of emergency like this.

At the same time, Wang Yu’s inbox was filled with messages sent by Fearless and the rest.

“F*ck! Are you not on top yet?”

“You cannot find the switch to open the gate?”

“Why are you not saying anything?”

...

After scrolling through the messages, Wang Yu simply replied with one sentence, “I’ve just arrived at the top. This wall is at least 120 metres high...”

After Wang Yu sent this, the chat went silent.

After a while, Fearless broke the silence, “You’re not kidding right...”

If it was 120 metres on the ground, one would only need about 10 seconds to run across it. If this was a vertical height of 120 metres, this was equivalent to over 40 levels... This was undoubtedly stunning. With walls over 40 levels high, guarding the city must be pretty difficult too right?

However, at the thought of it, the Ironcliff Fortress was the sturdiest stronghold in the game. This was a masterpiece arising from the genius of technology and magic. This was a perfect defense setup. Guarding the city from hundred over metres walls, they should have comparatively good system weapons to support. This Berserk Heavenlaw was really...

“Why would I joke about this? I almost fell to my death!”

As Wang Yu said that, he opened the sluice gate.
