Chapter 211: Raid dungeon (3)
As soon as his expression changed, the atmosphere of the room also changed.
It went from a relaxed one to one that was very tense.
This time when he spoke, he did it in a very serious voice.
"Thank you for gathering today. I'm sure that we all know what we're here for, so I'll spare you the small talk."
Tie Gang turned to face the smartboard that had been set up behind him and clicked a button on the remote that he had picked up from the podium. As soon as he clicked that remote, there was a diagram that appeared on the board.
This wasn't any image of the dungeon, but rather a diagram of what seemed to be a formation.
After this image appeared, Tie Gang said, "This will be the formation that we will be taking. I hope that everyone will pay attention and follow your orders."
As soon as his voice fell, everyone in the room revealed a serious look.
Tie Gang had the natural tone of a leader, so everyone felt compelled to listen when he spoke.
He went on to discuss the finer parts of the formation that we were supposed to take, as well as telling us what roles we would have.
From this, I learned that we would be placed in the left flank with Kaito's group. It would be up to us to protect our back to the left along with his group.
As for the ones that were placed in the vanguards, they were groups that had experience raiding a raid dungeon. These were parties that were led by B Rankers, so they were much stronger than our parties.
From what it seemed like, they were most likely top candidates for this competition.
And from what I heard about them, it was for good reason.
They were very skilled, only being a sliver away from reaching A Rank.
With just a bit more experience, the leaders of these parties might be able to push their powers to A Rank.
As for us…we were still too green to be considered.
Still, that didn't mean that I would give up since I had my own reason for going into the SS Rank Dungeon.
After he finished briefing us on the formation, Tie Gang changed the slide and there was a map that appeared on the screen.
With this map, he started giving us an outline of the layout of this raid dungeon.
According to this map, this raid dungeon had a total of three floors that we would have to fight through.
The first floor was just a general floor filled with weak monsters.
The second floor was an elite floor with elite monsters.
The third floor was where the raid boss of this entire raid dungeon was waiting.
The normal monsters that wandered around were the mummies and scarabs that I had heard about.
The elite monsters that were on the second floor were mummies as well, but these were mummies that had special abilities. These were mummies that had the ability to use skills and had different classes, so they were on a completely different level from the mummies on the first floor.
There were even mummies that could use magic spells which we had to watch out for.
Finally, the raid boss was apparently a pharaoh mummy that controlled powerful sand spells that would be very hard to fight.
With the variance in monsters that was found in this dungeon, I could see why it was called a raid dungeon.
It was indeed worthy of this name.
But I was also surprised by how much information we had on the dungeon.
I guess this was just the power that a large guild like Elementia had.
Since this was only a C Rank Raid Dungeon, it must be something that they had raided before which was why they had all this detailed information.
This was the benefit of being in a large organization.
The final thing that Tie Gang talked about was logistics.
It seemed that for a large raid dungeon like this, we couldn't just think about leaving in a day or two.
For a large raid dungeon like this, it would take at least a week before we would be able to leave.
That was why there were so many supporters that had been gathered here.
They would be entering the dungeon with us and they would be helping us set up camps in the safe zones of the dungeon.
That way, we would be able to rest in between battles and ensure that we wouldn't exhaust ourselves.
For that, we had to come up with a proper logistics plan to transport everything into the dungeon.
Or rather, we just had to follow the plan that was already in place.
In that plan, there wasn't much of a role for us in the left flank.
The only thing that we had to do was make sure that the monsters didn't wrap around and surround our party.
It was the central flank that would be in charge of protecting the supplies and the supporters, so it could be said that they were the ones that were in the main position, while we were just there to be along for the ride.
After hearing the entire plan, it really seemed like we were just there to be brought along instead of actually doing anything useful.
But when one thought about it, that seemed about right.
After all, we were the newbies.
We were the ones that had no experience with this at all, so it would be strange that we would be given an important position.
We should actually be glad that we weren't given a more important position since that would just put more pressure on us.
Once he was finished explaining the plan, there was nothing else for Tie Gang to say.
"We'll be departing in another hour, so get ready to leave." Those were Tie Gang's last words.
With that, the orientation meeting was over.
