Chapter 55: Restitution
When the lancers spread out on the battlefield, it was often understood how they got their name from the black armor and black armor, armed with black painted metal spears, in pairs on the battlefield, circling the twilight people in a circle or pendulum. They resemble lancers galloping back and forth across the battlefield, and whenever their spears are fully charged, they launch an attack on the Twilight Guild's front.
Orange beams of light flickered and vanished in the darkness, and when the rain of light struck the shields stretched out by the magicians, it turned into a golden raindrop, like a splash of molten steel. Each of the Yang Flame Rays has 125 damage, and there are a total of three firing arrays in the light spear, and the damage of a combined beam is as high as 375 points, which even exceeds the attack power of the dragon hunter. If nothing else, they are powerful, but they have no precision at all, they have no aiming ability, and can only fire a round of rays in the general direction to kill them, which does not matter.
More than twenty lancers, with a round of attacks every twelve seconds, always have a hit. It is especially useful when dealing with large targets such as shields and floating ships. They don't even have the ability to attack independently, Fang made a feedback device on the energy storage crystal of the light spear, and each feedback device has a special number, whenever the energy storage crystal is charged, the feedback device will give him a signal through the system, and he only needs to order the corresponding number of lancers to attack.
But because of this, the Lancer is arguably the construct that takes up the least amount of computing power on him, even lower than the Fire Djinn. He could say that he had little to do to control these things, except to give orders to attack, or to actively change their cruising patterns. Therefore, the lancers roaring back and forth on the battlefield are actually a group of automatic constructs, but the people of Twilight mistakenly think that these constructs are also under the control of Fang, which is a bit scary.
Not to mention them, even the Paparal girl was stunned, she was watching with an amazed gaze at so many constructs fighting together on the battlefield at the same time, she had never seen so many constructs fighting together on the battlefield except for the clockwork goblins. The friend of her teacher, although she was also a top combat craftsman, had never shown it in front of her.
"I seem to have met a powerful senior."
The girl thought to herself, but the voice of this senior was a little surprisingly young, like a teenager.
She clenched the halberd in her hand and nodded, the power of justice is growing day by day, which is a good thing.
Alice is in the forest and is commenting on the seniors in the girl's mind: "...... You say that when they unfold on the battlefield, people often understand how they get their names, but I have been looking at them for a long time, shouldn't they be called rangers? If you want to say that they use spears, hence the name, that's pretty much it. ”
Fang's face was a little dark, the name was a proud work in his mind, and he immediately retorted: "But it sounds imposing, and that's enough." ”
"The Rangers aren't bad either."
"Very poor."
Alice stood on tiptoe and reached out and touched his head: "Are you still a child?" ”
Fang: "......"
But whatever their name, it's a nightmare for the twilight people at the moment. Although if they look closely, they will find that these things are not only touching in attack, but also very dull in action, even if they go back and forth, there are often only one or two modes of action. They have some evasion ability, but they are also very weak. But the key problem is that there are too many of them.
The damage of the six-ring spell is too high compared to a level 20 character, even if it only has twenty or thirty percent hits, but in the face of damage that can't even withstand the shield, the first thing people think of must not be to revoke the shield but to increase the shield output without stopping.
An illusory sense of security is sometimes very important to people, especially when a round of twenty or thirty beams of light comes and almost always takes away a person, so who wants to be the next one? To put it bluntly, this is not a question of how to do a cost-effective ratio, but a question of how to maintain morale.
The dense blows didn't give them time to think about anything else, just that the defense was already very difficult.
But the magicians will run out of mana output one day, although the alchemist on the team has replaced them with a round of Reservoir Crystals, and he himself is doing his best to recharge them. However, even if it is an alchemist's E-shaped magic furnace, the energy supply of the main crystal is limited.
It's not that they haven't thought about fighting back, but if they can't rush out, don't forget that there is a heavenly sword on the other side, that Paparal girl standing outside with a halberd is not a vegetarian, fighting alone, no one in their team is the opponent of the other party, two against one. But more people go up, are they really fools when the other side fights craftsmen?
What's more, what really made them desperate was the manipulation ability of the craftsman in the forest, how much flexible construction he could control? More than 20 lancers roared and galloped on the battlefield, and the four dragon hunters in the forest over there were not idle, for the twilight people, that was the real sharpshooter, and the hunters hiding in the shadows could accurately take away a person's head if they were the slightest negligent.
Is this an alchemy boss in his forties joking with a level 20 construct body?
What's even more terrifying is that the other party seems to have a forbidden magic bullet, which killed their chief nurse in a round of raids, which is even worse. And after the dragon hunter revealed his hand, he diluted the attention of the vast majority of the Iron Guards on the Twilight Guild's side, and they had to be careful to prevent other spellcasters from stealing it.
Taken together, these three parties completely suppressed the Twilight Guild's ability to act, so much so that the big cat people simply stayed in the forest and watched the battle for a long time. He stuck his sword in the ground, leaned against a tree, and took out his pipe.
And below the high ground, the people of the Holy White Stone Guild finally ushered in a respite
And that twilight great swordsman, there are still a few melee professionals left, no matter how powerful they are, but they are not enough to be able to fight one against ten. What's more, the opponent is still a team that runs in with each other and cooperates tacitly.
They rushed into the line of the Holy White Stone Guild and killed a few people, but there was no follow-up.
The Iron Guards surrounded them, and it didn't matter if one could beat them, just a few more. Then the back row of magicians, the negative spells of the elemental envoys, and the control spells don't want to throw money at them, even if they have a high level and high will resistance, but as long as the probability is not zero, it must be one hundred percent in this case.
The great swordsman only felt that his movements were getting slower and slower, and then the guards in front of him suddenly got out of the way, and before he could be happy, he saw a magician standing not far from him with a staff in his hand, and stretched out a hand to him.
A viscous web fell from the sky, followed by a fireball, and the sound of the rangers firing their bows came and went, and he couldn't stop most of the arrows, the sharp clusters of arrows biting through his armor rings and drinking his blood.
Some even burrowed into the gaps between his armor, and an arrow hit him in the eye, and he fell to his knees with a scream, and could no longer hold the giant sword in his hand, but had to push it to the ground. This bracing seemed to exhaust the last of his strength, causing the great swordsman to bow his head completely.
And at that moment, his image in the eyes of everyone was no different from that of a hedgehog, his body was full of long and short arrows, the blood flowed like a sword, and he knelt on the ground with his head bowed, like a statue with a unique shape.
As soon as the Great Swordsman fell, the two Nightingales and the Twin Swordsmen also raised their hands, and any further fight would be nothing more than death. However, battles between guilds rarely kill captives, and there is no need for them to waste their starlight when the outcome of the battle cannot be changed.
The commander of the White Stone glanced at them, motioned for them to drop their weapons, and then waved his battle axe and pointed it to the top of the ground. Although their goal was not to kill Twilight, they had decided to fight, of course, until one side surrendered.
The counterattack of the Holy White Stone Guild basically announced the end of this battle.
With Fang, holding on to that Paparal girl was almost the limit of Twilight's people, and the new force from behind became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and almost at the moment when everyone in the Holy White Stone Guild killed on the high ground, Twilight's front completely collapsed.
As if he had already seen the result, the man took out a positioning teleportation scroll and wanted to teleport. But Fang had already guarded against his hand, so that Ji Ta threw a dimensional anchor early, and the other party lit the scroll, only to find that nothing had happened.
He froze visibly, then let out a long sigh, threw the box in his hand, and then snatched the long sword from the person next to him, and stabbed it into his chest with a backhand. The other party didn't even lose a cruel word before leaving, and this decisiveness surprised Fang.
As soon as the man died, the others lost the determination to resist, either committed suicide or surrendered, and in the blink of an eye, the battle was over.
Seeing this scene, Fang let out a sigh of relief, and gently lowered his hand to the edge of the forest, and the red light that flashed in the eyes of the four dragon hunters also dimmed. It was enough to have those lancers looking at the captives, anyway, they didn't know the real situation of these constructs, and even he couldn't bear to control the four dragon hunters for a long time.
And at the same time as he lowered his hand, the Paparal girl on the battlefield also put away the halberd, and then walked in their direction.
……
"Introduce myself, my name is May-Neo-Stellarflower, and Nyoan-Stellar is my name in the Knights, so you don't have to worry about it."
The girl walked through the dense bushes, and before she could reach them, she introduced herself from a distance. She rested her small hand on the breastplate carved with two griffins, her curved halberd behind her back, looking serious, her hair tied into a ponytail, her light purple bangs slightly obscuring her left eye, and her pointed ears piercing through the ends of her hair, like a delicate doll.
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Fang Fang to answer, she separated from the bushes and continued to walk, and then she looked up, and saw the big cat man, Alice, Kita, and Fang. Her gaze wandered between the four of them in a bit of confusion before finally landing on Fang's control gloves.
The girl opened her mouth slightly cutely: "You are the senior?" ”
What? What is it? Fang was stunned.
"Ah, it's nothing," the girl suddenly realized, and said a little embarrassedly, "friend, I just didn't expect you to be so young." ”
No, Fang thought to myself, you are not very old, why are you so old-fashioned as soon as you open your mouth.
The big cat man shook the ash from his pipe, and then introduced with a smile: "Miss Niouan is already a well-known knight in our country, the Flower of Light, a kind and noble lady, the voter of Oli, but she is the paladin of Ori, and she is not the same as me, but I heard that she went to the ancient tower a long time ago." ”
Maye looked at the big cat man with some surprise: "You are the paladin of the Valiant Lady?" Then she said to herself, "Yes, I have heard that the knights of the lady are honest and brave men, and you have also been to Sanshak, where our knights are." ”
The girl shook her head again: "I went to the Ancient Tower, where I received the inheritance of the ancient knights, but not long ago I received an order from the Knights to come to Kaorin to capture a thief who escaped from the Giant Tree Hill. ”
"Thief?" Fang instinctively had a bad premonition.
"Well," Mei nodded solemnly, "he's also a Paparal, a vicious, vile and sinister bandit. ”
"Wait a minute," Fang hurriedly interrupted the young lady, "Can you ask him what he did, so outrageous?" ”
"He stole the testimonies and prize money of the nightingale contest in the Sanshak region."
Fang looked back at the big cat man.
As if he hadn't heard, Red's silver-gray eyes narrowed as he lowered his head and lit his pipe.
Kita looked at the two of them with some concern, and Alice didn't seem to figure out what was going on for a moment.
"I take the liberty of asking," Fang asked dryly, "Miss May, what is that witness?" ”
"Not presumptuous, friend," Maye shook his head, "it's a century-old Mithril dagger from the master carver Paderville."
Fang: "!? ”
……
After some understanding, of course, mainly after trying to cover it up, Fang finally tried to understand some of the reasons why this knight lady appeared here, and the thief she was going to capture was of course none other than the only Paparal in their team, the self-proclaimed king of the night thieves, the dragon slayer, Parker.
Presumably, it was May's knight order, and after seeing Parker from the wanted notice of the Kaulin Ishurian Kingdom, they entrusted the knight lady, who was practicing in the ancient tower, to go to Kaulin Ishurian and arrest the thief.
And Fang only then realized that the short sword that was melted by himself and turned into a mask actually had such a big origin, it was not only a Mithril short sword, but also an art treasure in the entire Sanshak region. He immediately wiped a handful of sweat, this thing was not enough to sell ten in terms of artistic and historical value
However, when he thought that this guy in Parker was in front of the top nightingales of more than a dozen guilds in the Sanshak area, he unknowingly transferred the witnesses, and finally ran away with the stolen goods, all the way to Kaulin Ihurian.
This is probably a kind of skill
No wonder they tried their best, but the food on the ship would still disappear inexplicably. The king of the night thieves really lives up to his name. But Fang clenched his fist so loudly that Kita watched in horror and couldn't help but worry a little about the future fate of the poor Paparal.
"But how did Miss Maye get here?"
"I followed because I was commissioned by Elder Grayskin to investigate the disappearance of the Treant Sentinels, and I accidentally discovered that these people were sneaky."
Only then did Fang understand that it was not only them who had been entrusted by the Tree People.
After asking, he realized that this knight lady was not simple at all, she was the one who Cuiye described not long ago, single-handedly killed a paladin who was dressed as a giant crab, and the strength of this knight lady can be said to be almost similar to him and the big cat man.
Mei Yi listened to their conversation and was a little surprised: "It turns out that the tree people said that there is another Paladin with similar strength to me, and it is you." But then I also understand that you do have the strength to easily defeat those crystal monsters. ”
Fang didn't correct her about the fact that those crystal monsters weren't actually monsters, but constructs, and they just walked out of the woodland as they talked.
The people from the Holy White Stone Guild over there had already noticed the movement in this direction, but they didn't come closer, only the leader of the Holy White Stone sent someone to send them the box.
Although the Sacred White Stone won the final victory in this battle, whether it was won or lost, this was not actually the result they wanted, and their goal was not to snatch the heart of the mountain, after the initial impulse, people calmed down and began to feel a little confused, and even regretted it.
But there are still people talking:
"But there's really nothing to regret."
"Can you accept something like that?"
"I admit that more than half of us came to this world to make money, but there are many ways to make money, and we can't afford to be angry like that."
"The people of twilight can be regarded as playing the sidelines of the "Stargate Declaration", and it is reasonable for us to refuse anyway."
In the crowd, the atmosphere gradually loosened a little.
The person who brought them the box containing the heart of the mountain was a reflection of time, and he was looking back at his companions in his guild before he smiled at the others: "...... I'm sorry I almost made a big mistake...... I don't think Treeheart lied to us, regardless of what the guild ultimately thinks, but I don't think the Leader was wrong with the choice of the others. Although we are not natives, when the guild also depends on this land, if Nognes is not recovered, it will be a disaster for us. ”
"But those people may not believe you."
Alice looked at him and spoke.
"It doesn't matter if they believe it or not," replied Time Reflection, "but the point is that everyone made that choice at that time, which was very gratifying and made me really feel like a team for the first time." ”
He looked at Fang, "When I was with Mr. Ed, I used to be a little envious of their team, Mr. Red, Miss Kita, and others, everyone was so strong and cooperative. But now I may not think that way, in a team, perhaps the most important thing should be to have a lot of people who think the same way, when people work together, the team is far better than the individual. ”
Fang smiled, which coincided with his opinion.
He also looked at the direction of the people in the Holy White Stone Guild, maybe this matter would eventually pass, and he didn't know what was waiting for them on the road ahead For the Holy White Stone, this team was obviously not a special core team, and the level of the members of the team was generally not high.
Perhaps they will continue to remove these people from the guild in order to maintain their relationship with the Twilight Guild, or even hold them accountable. Perhaps people will regret their impulsive choices and suffer a price that shouldn't have been.
But one day, they will remember this moment.
I remember the moment when many people made a choice together and worked together. People forget many things, but they don't forget the emotion in their hearts, which runs through and will forever leave a mark in the depths of their memories.
And that is the most fundamental motivation he is pursuing.
"Let's go and return this thing to its original owner."
He picked up the box and said to the others.
Maye nodded slightly.
Time Reflection also nodded, and he turned back to Alice on the side and asked, "Miss Rainbow, are you going too?" ”
"Me?" Alice replied, "Of course I'm going." ”
