Qwen arrived at the dungeon towers barriers. The purple clouds in the sky were very active. Gust of wind and purple lightening bolts streaked through the clouds.
A massive crowd of system users surrounded the dungeon all the way around the structure.
Millions were prepped for battle behind the military line.
Qwen circled the above until he saw familiar faces outside of a large beige military tent labeled 'Command Center'.
It was the main HQ tent.
His 'Cloud Skipper' descended to the ground. From outside the military line the crowd of civilian system users lost it when they saw Qwen. If music were playing, a passer by would have mistaken the scene for a rock concert.
Qwen walked towards the tent. By now all of the eyes in the camp were trained on him.
"Oy look what we have here. Your more famous than Beyonce now mate! You gonna do a little dance for us in your pretty robe to. Wait holy shite are those real dragon scale! Scratch that, I want a dance dress now too"
Min and permafrost were laughing covering their mouths. The both had reserved shy demeanor but in better they were fearless and efficient killing machines.
Permafrost brownout of her laughter first.
"So, what brings you here sir?"
She asked in her Russian accent. Qwen had to admit the woman was stunning. He shyly looked away. He could never look at the woman in the face without having to look off. She made his heart leap in his chest whenever he saw her.
"Uh, yeah well I'm here to stop the dungeon break."
Mins eyebrow rose she had a stern face. She gave Qwen a dangerous look.
"All alone?"
"Well yeah. That way I can take care of the initial threat and no ones in danger."
A large ice spear appeared at Qwend back before he could react.
'SO FAST!'
He jumped and spinned on the air. He was met with a hammer and a foot neither person held back.
BOOM!
Qwen was into the the ground and a crater was formed. The ground shook and the camp became active.
"So what are you trying to say mate? That we aren't good enough?"
Permafrost only frowned. Min had the look of a teacher scolding a child.
"We are warriors who fight and die for what we believe in. Are you trying to take that away from us?"
Hammer of course made the situation worse and somehow got his hands on a bull horn. Then proceed to further grind the point into Qwens head.
He turned to the crowd at the gate.
"The 'the creator' Qwen Valas wants to enter the dungeon."
The crowd exploded in cheers.
""Oy but he doesn't think any of you are strong enough to stand by his side."
The crowd instantly flipped like a switch was activated and the crowds boos blocked out apl sound.
"Now, now let's calm down. We have to admit we already owe much to the man. So he has a right to his opinion but who here hasn't been tested. We all minced monster guys under our blades. Maybe he had a slip of words. Maybe his parents raised him not to respect his Elders. So we'll give him a pass just this once. Let's show this shiye we we are all made of. Let's show him we fear nothing and death is our b****!"
The crowd went insane.
"Hammer! Hammer! Hammer!"
Red Hammer tossed the bullhorn to a soldier and walked back to the crater.
Qwen was just climbing out as he walked up.
"So when are we goin' in?"
He posed with the hammer on his shoulder and a big smile. Of course he was still working the crowd.
We'll go in as soon as my sect gets here.
"Your what? What are you talking about sects for? I think that robes and katana has gone to your head. Sir."
Min walked over with a curious look on her face.
Qwen smiled at her.
"You'll see at noon tomorrow."
The next morning countless busloads had come to the military line to import more soldiers and system user.
The dungeon was set to break in the next 48 hours.
Apparently, the floor had to be cleared or a calamity would claim the planet.
From what Qwen could see the dungeon were essentially like their own ecosystems. The intelligent dungeon monsters had social structures, farms, educational buildings, armies.
You could earn a fortune ransacked a city. The issues are the millions of residents who wouldn't take kindly to invaders.
Qwen didn't care how smart they were. They were only XP in his eyes.
He cultivated in a tent all night while he waited on his now sect disciples to return from their hiatus.
.....
The next morning the sky was much darker and tuned the world around the dungeon towers purple.
Today was the day before the dungeon would break. The confident looks from the system users and military dwindled.
The numbe of people were now in the hundred of million range. A standing army this large had never existed in the centuries past. With the weakest members having the destructive power to crush small boulders. The strongest and the early to mid level 20 had the capability to crumble a few sky scrapers to dust. Of course theirs skills and powers vary and the effects are enhanced.
Somehow there was still silence. Only the sounds clanking of armors and weapons rubbing. Hard nervous breaths filled the crowd. Inklings of fear dialted the pupils of even the most seasoned warriors.
The last reports were of monsters with intelligence mobilizing the enemy into attack formations. The number of monsters were incalculable. They scouts were only able to get basic information before having retreat.
As nervous filled the camp. One man exited a large tent calmly
The crowd parted for Qwen as he walked towards the barrier. No signs if fear could be seen on his face. He looked up and multiple sounds of the sound barrier being broken rang in the sky the 24 ships spread out and surrounded the barrier.
A black portal appeared and Shizomi stepped though followed by the other disciples, the Twins, and Ryu. At the same time Sun Hammer classed Red Hammer, the Nightcrawler assassin classed Min, and the Ice Witch classed Permafrost walked up.
The group waked infront of Qwin in two rows before cupping their hand and bowing formally.
"Premodial Dragon Sect disciples have arrived sect master!"
Qwen blushed red and was thoroughly embarrassed but did his best to not show it.
The didn't escape the notice of red Hammer who was about to explode in non stop wise cracks before a sudden layer of ice quickly covered his frozen mouth.
Permafrost and Min chuckled quietly as they watched Qwen and his Asian dressed friends' display.
Qwen pit his hands behind his back like he had watched Elder do. Mimicking the old bastard was all he could think to do. He knew who was up to this charade but he would never let Elder know this.
"Yes my sect disciples. Spread out! Go forth and show the power of the mighty Premodial Dragon Sect! Let them see what true power is."
All of them jumped into the air surrounding the tower and unleashed their cultivation.
Various colored aura burst from their bodies. The Shockwave knocked the tens of millions to the ground. Even the highest leveled system user was on their hands and knees besides Qwen.
"W..What the he'll is this!"
Qwens samll sect members went inside of teams of two without hesitation from each side of the massive tower. The pressure they emitted instantly dissipated.
The incredulous crowd could only stare at Qwen or the figures that disappeared into the barrier.
Their showing was a hit to the pride of many of the system users that thought they were powerful. Each one wanted this power.
Murmurs rang out in the crowd.
"Was that the clan of the creator?" One person could be heard saying.
"..No, he said it was a sect but what's a sect?" Another answered.
"I don't know. Maybe it's just a fancy name but is still a clan?"
"Well whatever it was did you see those people flying without help?"
"Yeah and I didn't sense any magic! What's going on? This is like some kind of cheat!"
Qwen ignored the crowd. The military leadership had arrived at the barrier to coordinate the final preparations before entering. The air was heavy with tension and felt like a knife could slice it.
Qwen turned to the HQ Commander of the army.
"Let my people set up a safe parameter. Give us 5 minutes."
With that he stepped through the barrier.
The scene changed into a plain filled with monsters.
He was instantly swarmed by low leveled monsters.
"He stomped on the ground and the temperature lowered to below freezing instantly for hundred of meters around. It tuned the scene in winter tundra. He extended his arms and sent out hundres of miles per hour winds and tens of tornadoes and sent them out in every direction.
The tens of thousands monsters became frozen projectiles and flew for miles in every direction until stopped by a solid object. Since their were no trees for hundred of miles. Monsters and structures were the targets.
Massive and devastating impacts occurred from the storms.
When Awen cleared the area he put down his magical barrier array. It was a flag like talisman with cultivation magic inscriptions.
Once his tag hit the ground a massive blue barrier formed all the way around the inner section of the dungeon. Unlucky monsters were instantly severed in half and the even more unlucky monster were stuck on the wron side of the barrier.
Now he gave the humans a foot hold to fight from and if need be fall back to. The number of monsters were simply too large.
He looked at the numbers and simply thought, even with the number of system users they would be overwhelmed within hours.
In the distance he could hear his sect disciples battling. He told them to fall back to the array barrier and recover whenever they got tired.
A few minutes later solders and system users alike appeard out of thin air and arrived to a calm scene.
Slightly shocked at the sudden appearance of millions of people Qwen quickly collected him and tuned towards the playing and the rabid dungeon monsters.
