The fire was raging, and it was not until the second half of the night that the snow drifted and gradually dissipated, and from south to west, the entire outer city of Grandsam was burned to a charred sheet, and it was not easy to restore it even in a virtual online game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Simply, Heathcliff directly abandoned all the outer city and invested all the resources in the inner city, so that the height of the city wall was raised by two meters.

On the plains it was even worse.

There are monsters everywhere that are not yet dead, and the human knight player has no strength to make up for them again, the fine sword in his hand has been curled, the durability displayed in the system has been reduced to zero, and the wind is panting more slowly than a mule......

For the first time, they understood what it was like to kill monsters and kill softly!

Although the first two out-of-town battles to meet the enemy and the wonderful city defense battles also achieved good results, tonight's burning field can already be described by the word victory!

According to incomplete statistics, there were at least more than 5,000 orcs and monsters killed in the sea of fire in this battle, and there were at least more than 10,000 of those routs who trampled each other to death, escaped from the city and were chased by Chen Xiao's cavalry for dozens of kilometers.

The mountain of corpses and the sea of blood piled up a new wall outside the city, and in the end, even the players in the inner city were a little unbearable, it was really a slaughter of inhumanity......

When the cavalry players returned to the city with their tired bodies, even if they had achieved such brilliant results, the rest of the players just stood on both sides of the street, looking at them quietly and solemnly, not daring to cheer loudly......

Snowflakes fall.

Despite being an online game, where the player dissipates within minutes of death, a cemetery has been set up in Grumsam.

There is also a monument in front of the cemetery, which is full of the names of the players who died in the siege, and more than 500 names have been added tonight.

Most of them were thrown into the fire of Nancheng by Ye Zixuan......

Chisel chisel chisel ......

The sound of a chisel hitting on the stele came from far and near.

Chen Xiao stood on the side of the monument, the snowflakes whitened his shoulders, but he did not move, because it was Asuna who was squatting in front of him and was carving his name on the stele with a chisel little by little.

"Whew-"

Asuna blew a breath and blew the debris away, and the name of the loyal old captain of the Blood Alliance Knights became clear on the stele.

He has always been Asuna's staunchest follower compared to the so-called exclusive knight, and he is also a brother and father, and this time he also fended off the deadly attack of the lightning lizard for her in the pursuit battle, and died in the Great Plains.

"I remember him as a very upright man, and when you were kidnapped by the monster spider, he was the only one in the team who was really anxious." Chen Xiao swept the snow off Asuna's body and put a thick cloak on her.

"I get it, it's just ......" Asuna lowered her head, tears streaming in her eyes.

She regretted it a little, she never looked at the middle-aged captain at the beginning, and after SAO announced her death, she didn't believe that she could gain any true feelings in this game, and it was not the same strange life after returning to the real society......

Now it seems that I was wrong.

"You don't have to blame yourself too much, whether it's death or something else, it's his willing choice."

Seeing her expression, Chen Xiao sighed and hugged Asuna tightly.

At the end of the day, she's just a child a year away from adulthood.

"Don't talk about that!" Asuna turned her head, but she didn't know that because of the cold in the middle of the night, she was still not used to being held in Chen Xiao's arms, so she looked up at Chen Xiao with a red face and asked:

"Are you ready for tomorrow? What is your strategy? ”

"Then again...... Asuna chuckled, her expression a little odd:

"Although you and Ye Zixuan are brothers, you have tortured the gang you left him to the front committee, especially since he did that thing today......

Although it is late at night, tonight is the turning point of the battle, so all the top management of Gransom will also have to spend the night discussing the next tactics, as well as summarizing and commending the players who contributed tonight.

The central fort is brightly lit and busy.

Only Chen Xiao and Asuna stole a little bit of leisure, although they had the greatest credit, but they had such a violent conflict with everyone at the pre-war meeting, and now they don't come themselves, and those people on the front line of the province are embarrassed......

"Ye Zixuan, he should have no problem dealing with this kind of thing." Chen Xiao touched his nose, but in his mind, he recalled what the meat ball girl said to himself at the end, that confident look......

She is not a person who likes to bluff, but what other means can the other party come up with......

"I don't know what new tactics the other side can have, but what will happen tomorrow ...... Take a step, look at a step, we'll ...... tonight Go back first? ”

Chen Xiao lifted Asuna in his arms, and gestured to the direction of his home with bad intentions.

"Nasty!" Asuna smacked Chen Xiao's chest with infinite shyness, gently gave him a kiss, and then broke free:

"Until you resurrect Sister Tsumiko, we can't ...... That's the kind of thing you do! ”

After that, he quickly ran to his residence, looking at the figure she left, Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and touched his nose, it seems that he still has a long way to go.

……

Nothing was said all night.

Until the third pole of the sun, there was no movement on the side of the monster camp, and the defenders who had been nervous all morning were also a little relaxed.

There are even some more optimistic players, who have boldly speculated whether the opponent's vitality was greatly damaged by last night's battle, and they are no longer able to launch a counterattack on Gransom in a short period of time, and they have also asked for battle to go out of the city to find the enemy......

After all, these monsters, even those low-level orcs who have been assimilated, can get a lot of experience points and gold coins when killed, which can be very eye-catching in the eyes of those new forces in the inner city, and the strength of those players who have been killed in the outer city is about to surpass them!

But at this moment, a low and solemn horn sounded at the monster camp-

Buzz –

Ye Zixuan and the others, who were observing the situation in the inner city watchtower with Chen Xiao, all frowned, and secretly clenched their fists, understanding that the enemy was ready to launch today's offensive.

Are the mighty dragons attacking the city?

Or like the previous times, continue to use crowd tactics to crush the inner city, which is much more fragile than the outer city......

"Look there!!"

The player in charge of the scout put down the binoculars, turned his head and shouted with a strange expression:

"Enemy attack!!"

"But ......"

"Only one person!!"

Dressed in white and on a white horse, a handsome young man, just like that, riding a horse, facing this majestic giant city, strolling leisurely!
