Park Nam Hoon was pretty much at ease after the fourth fight against the horde of skeleton knights. He looked down on the rusted armor, thinking of taking it off. He had been thinking about it since the third fight, but he noticed that the others did not even bother to pick the armor.

He thought it should be decent armor even though it was armor from a mob monster. It was a mob monster in the God Realm. It should be decent compared to the drops from the dungeon on Earth.

"You better keep your inventory open than taking this shitty armor. We are just at the dungeon's entrance, and we will encounter a stronger mob. You should take the armor at least from the Demi-God Rank Skeleton Knight instead of this one."

Park Nam Hoon glanced at the voice of the team leader, Vice Supreme General Wei Xi. He thought about it, and only then he realized that he was still at the entrance. His nervousness got into him, he felt like it was hours already. It was still less than an hour since they entered the hallway.

Kicking away the bones and the rusted armor, Park Nam Hoon regrouped with his team. He was much calmer after the fourth battle against the mob. It was after he confirmed that not all monsters were a God Rank even though they were in the God Realm.

The party resumed their exploration. They only encountered four waves of skeleton knights so far. Each wave was around fifty to eighty skeleton knights with Legend Rank as the highest rank.

Even though he only encountered Primordial Rank and Legend Ranks mobs, Park Nam Hoon was still on high alert. Just as his team leader said, they were still at the entrance of the dungeon.

Park Nam Hoon saw the end of the hallway. His grip on his spear tightened. The hallway led to a bigger room, bigger than the cave at the entrance.

The interior of the room was still the same. The same floor and wall with the torchlight lightened the room. The scout team was waiting in this room.

He scanned the room which was pretty much empty. The room was too spacious to be empty. There was a pond at the center of the room, filled with clear water, then nine stone gates. He guessed their next destination was behind the stone gate.

Each stone gate was engraved with a figure. The stone gate in the middle was engraved with a knight, holding a sword and a shield while standing. To the left of the knight was another figure, holding a spear, and so on with different weapons.

The gate was much bigger compared to the hallway. It was over twenty meters tall and thirty meters wide. That meant the space behind the gate was much bigger. More space if they had to fight, more ideal, but they might encounter the stronger monster.

Park Nam Hoon approached the scout team, noticing the scout team was discussing something.

"I think each gate is occupied by the Tomb Guardian. The quest says we have to kill all Tomb Guardians, and I think there are nine of them. Each gate represents the Tomb Guardian!"

Park Nam Hoon listened to Lu An's words. It made sense, meaning they had to take all nine gates to clear the dungeon. It was quite straightforward, he was relieved that it was not that complicated for a dungeon in the God Realm.

"It's much simpler than I thought. It will be faster if we split up the party, but we will take it slow since we have no experience in this dungeon. We will try the first gate together. If it's not that difficult, then we can try to split the party."

Park Nam Hoon agreed with Supreme General Zhang's idea. They could try to clear the first and second gates together. If it was not a problem, then they should split up to clear the dungeon faster.

"That's the issue. We must split into groups to clear the dungeon. It will be easier to understand if you see it yourself!"

Lu An brought everyone to the gate in the middle. A screen popped out when they reached the ten-meter distance from the gate.

[Guardian Arkin]

Objective: Kill Guardian Arkin

Reward:???

Time: 1 hour

- All gates will be sealed for 24 hours for failing to kill Guardian Arkin in an hour.

- Upon opening one of the gates, players have twelve hours to kill the remaining tomb guardians.

- The remaining gates will be sealed for 24 hours if players fail to kill all nine Tomb Guardians in the designated time.

——————————————

Then they approached the other gates as well. All of them had the same objective and the same time limit as well.

"If the tomb guardian is right behind the gate, then an hour for each tomb guardian is doable. But what if we must find the tomb guardian first? What if it's a maze inside? I don't think an hour is enough. Especially if the Boss is a God Rank."

Park Nam Hoon cursed inwardly. He jinxed himself, thinking the dungeon in the God Realm was simple. If they failed once, they had to wait for twenty-four hours for another try. What did it mean? It meant if they could not clear all nine gates in the designated time, they would be trapped in this dungeon until they could kill each tomb guardian in an hour.

Splitting the group or not was no longer an issue. They must work together. If the boss was not behind the gate, they must reach the boss's room as quickly as possible. Then they must kill the boss. They must achieve that within an hour.

"Why don't we find out?"

Park Nam Hoon snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the voice. If it was someone from Han, he would scold the person. However, the one who spoke was The Emperor.

"We can't just carelessly open the gate. We need a plan first!"

He was grateful that Supreme General Zhang dared to speak up. He agreed with Zhang Mengyao. They could not open the gate carelessly because of the one-hour time limit. They would be done if they entered the gate with no plan.
