Chapter 574 Floating City, Attack(1/4)
"Holy shit! I can't believe that we were actually shown off by the other party leading a group of NPCs!"
"How many people died in your team?"
"Forget it, the whole army was wiped out, and not even a single person ran out. The opponent's attack was a super-magic that covered a wide area, without giving them any time to react. A massive amount of magic attacks came at them all over the place. Who can withstand this?
”
"We were the same, we all died in an instant. Now that I think about it, the constant tug-of-war and scattered attacks every day must have been psychological tactics used to deliberately mislead us."
"Yes, that's what I think too. They want to force us to spread out actively, so that when we launch a surprise attack tonight, we can hit the superior forces and defeat them one by one."
"I just asked other people. Generally speaking, the interval between each team being attacked is no more than three minutes. Moreover, the area where the first wave was attacked was the connection point of the blockade on both sides of the northwest. This is obviously prepared.
Come."
"So... this is a long-planned tactical deception and surprise attack?"
"Fake! I was lying in the woods with my eyes closed to relax, but the whole team was wiped out before I could figure out what happened."
"Who says it isn't? This shameless sneak attack is so un-chivalrous and I strongly condemn it."
"Sigh - it's nothing to die once. It's not like I haven't tried it before. What I really feel bad about is the equipment that I couldn't save."
"I feel the same way! That outfit cost at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Just thinking about it makes my heart bleed. If I can't get back my money with interest, I won't be able to swallow this breath."
"Look at your potential. Is this a matter of getting back the capital with interest? Our old face is about to be stepped on by others!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Go to the storage room and line up to get the spare equipment there. This matter is not over yet!"
"Yes! Even if I die a hundred times, I will smash that damn skull's head into pieces!"
……
As Old Bones launched a long-planned sneak attack, the passage outside the clone storage room inside Plantia's floating city was filled with densely packed players who had just been resurrected.
Their common feature is that they are naked and buttocks naked, and they look quite unhappy while cursing, and some of them can even be said to be gnashing their teeth.
After all, once you die, all weapons, equipment and personal items will be dropped.
In addition, you have to face severe "experience point punishment".
Most players who have some wealth will almost always set aside some previously eliminated equipment to ensure that even if they accidentally die, they will have a set of weak but usable weapons and armor immediately after resurrection.
This is why after resurrection, they immediately walked in groups to the hall not far away where personal belongings and property are stored.
Just from the mighty posture, we can tell that they are obviously not willing to fail this time, but are working hard to go back and take revenge.
You must know that since entering this so-called "game world", the player group has never suffered such a big loss, so it can be said that the crowd is excited right now.
Especially being tricked by a group of NPCs who were regarded as the source of experience points and equipment made them extremely unacceptable psychologically and spiritually.
However, just when the talkers from each team began to connect in series, planning to fight back to regain the place, a familiar and harsh sound began to echo above the entire Floating City of Plantia.
Woo——woo——woo——
Accompanied by the low and harsh buzzing, the mobile turrets began to gather in the center, whether it was the largest body of the floating city or the floating islands floating around.
Airships, airplanes and other aircraft, dragons and other flying creatures floating overhead quickly lowered their altitude and fell to the ground.
The top of the central tower is constantly flashing a red light symbolizing the highest level of combat readiness.
"This...is this an air raid alert?"
One player's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He obviously couldn't believe in his dreams that he would hear such a sound in the game.
Another companion next to him quickly corrected: "No, this is not an ordinary air defense warning. If I remember correctly, it should be closer to a triple nuclear attack warning. It seems that something big has happened."
"You mean the floating city is ready to join the war?"
"I think we are inseparable. We have suffered such heavy losses this time, how could we not come back with severe revenge?"
"Hahahaha! A full-scale war? Wouldn't that be so exciting!"
"I have long wanted to see what the combat effectiveness of our lair is like."
"What kind of knowledge does this need? Look at the dragons and aircraft flying in the sky, and then look at the giant cannons placed on the floating islands around you. Just long-range fire coverage and air strikes can make the opponent unable to fight back.
”
"Not necessarily. You have to take the magic factor into consideration."
"Come on. You don't even take a look at how many mage towers there are in the floating city."
Just as a player was discussing with great interest, Vanessa, the lich who represented Zuo Si in Plantia and was responsible for daily management, finally solemnly announced through amplification magic: "All residents of the Floating City, please pay attention.
.
Next we will conduct an unprecedented teleportation across time and space.
This process can be quite bumpy, so everyone is best to enter the surrounding buildings immediately, otherwise there will be consequences at your own risk.
Try to stay quiet during the teleportation process. No one is allowed to use any magical abilities, let alone try to drink potions and the like.
When the transmission is completed, we will immediately engage in combat with the enemy.
At that time, I will issue a series of combat instructions and tasks."
As the last word was blurted out, a spherical magic barrier visible to the naked eye quickly opened with the central tower as the center, covering the floating city and the island that had just approached.
Immediately afterwards, a huge crack tore through the sky in an instant, like a monster's mouth, swallowing Plantia bit by bit.
The extremely spectacular sight and darkness inside the space rift deeply shocked everyone.
Whether they were players, local aboriginal residents, or created hybrid intelligent creatures, they all gathered near the window and looked up at the outside in stunned silence. The only thing they could do was hold their breath and pray that this time and space teleportation would not happen.
What happened?
What is completely different from their nervous reaction is the combat conference room located in the central tower.
Vanessa, who had been silent for a long time, was obviously very happy today. She glanced at the representatives sent by various departments and said in a very relaxed tone: "Everyone, I think you all should know that this so-called war is actually...
Just to find a testing ground for the things you have invented and created during this period.
Which department performs better will receive more resources in the next stage.
So please everyone do your best and let me see that all your investment is valuable."
"Hey, please rest assured, I guarantee that the enemy will receive the warmest reception."
An expert with short brown hair grinned with a "nuclear kindness" smile.
As one of the leaders of the super weapon research and development project, he has used the convenience brought by the combination of magic and technology to create several series of killer weapons.
Using the blood of Tiamat to create a magic version of a nuclear bomb was proposed by this guy and put into practice.
Compared with those experts who are relatively normal mentally and psychologically, he is obviously a lunatic who is keen on infinitely increasing the lethality of weapons, and has some kind of fanatical obsession with explosions and destruction.
So when I heard that I had the opportunity to pour weapons on the enemy's heads without any scruples, I had been so excited that I couldn't sleep for several days. I was eager to see the wonderful scene of flames soaring into the sky and countless corpses and broken limbs flying all over the sky.
.
Vanessa nodded with satisfaction: "Very good. Then I'm looking forward to your performance. Now, I will give you certain permissions to issue tasks to players during the war."
"What about me? What do I need to do?"
Isadora asked, pointing to her small nose.
"You don't need to do anything, just stay here with me and watch the show."
Without thinking, Vanessa kept this "little ancestor" who was the most capable of causing trouble and also the most potentially dangerous by her side.
After going through so many things, he was worried about letting Isadora out alone.
Especially the increasingly powerful psychic powers, which can even easily tamper with the memories and thinking of all the residents of a city in an instant.
Just as Plantia's floating city crossed the rift in time and space, Old Bones started the mass killing mode on the other side of the battlefield.
Since many elite players in the first echelon suffered devastating blows in a very short time after the war started, even those who survived were lost in the forest at night and unable to gather to form an effective resistance, so the Great Tomb of Nazarick finally
Fully utilized its own advantages.
And with the methods of summoning magic and infinite resurrection of corpses to transform into an army of the undead, the size of the army quickly snowballed.
Finally, with the attack from two sides, the coalition forces of various countries collapsed and could only flee for their lives. The scene soon turned into a one-sided massacre.
Hundreds of thousands of people were divided, surrounded, and fell into a pool of blood screaming.
To be continued...
