Volume 6: Turmoil (Remastered) Chapter 17: Raven Ridge (17)
"Maintain the front! Summoner, Summoner!! β
"Ahh Help me, save meβ"
"Keitel, Kettle! Damn it, archers, shoot fast, hold it down! β
"The mage is out of blue, out of blue, who still has a recovery potion?"
"Who still has that thing at this time, ask for more blessings!"
"The warriors can't guarantee the integrity of the battle line, President, withdraw!"
"Withdraw? Tell me where to retreat? Forgetfully raised his head and poured the last bottle of potion down, and replied helplessly, "Now we can hold on temporarily with the number of people, if we are alone, we won't be able to hold on for a minute!" β
Backed by the glorious barrier that they hated not long ago, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of despair in their hearts, as more and more skeletons and zombies pounced on them like endless waves, the defense line composed of flesh and blood was constantly shattered, and then it was repaired by all means to prevent it from being washed away by the waves of monsters, and everyone knew that once these monsters cut the entire battle line, everyone's end would only be death.
Although it now seems that this seemingly stoic struggle is in vain.
Yanyu Hongchen turned his head to look at the seemingly indestructible barrier of light, and the corners of his mouth pulled a bitter expression, before he was eager to destroy this shining barrier, but now, this has become their biggest reliance on survival. Thanks to this barrier of light, those damn monsters could only come up in a semicircle, which reduced the number of fronts they needed to defend.
But despite this, the battle damage is also rising at a rocket-like rate, and as time goes by, supplies such as potions and scrolls have also reached the point of running out of ammunition and food, without these life-saving materials, it is conceivable that it will not be long before the warrior players at the forefront of the battle line will completely collapse, and then the wave of monsters will drown all the remaining players like a tsunami, leaving them with no more results than death.
In fact, there have been many players who have chosen to go offline directly under the drive of desperation, but their characters will not disappear, but will become a wooden man and stay in place, which is why Yanyu Hongchen is reluctant to go offline, rather than choosing to escape, it is better to fight to the death.
"Seven more warriors have fallen!" Hazy Smoke shot the last arrow in the quiver, "President, our people are running out of supplies, and the mage's blue is almost empty. β
Yanyu Hongchen is not at the forefront like forgetfulness, after all, unlike forgetfulness as a skeleton knight, Yanyu Hongchen is a mage, no one can say that he is cowering, but the other guild leader standing next to him is different, as a warrior, but hiding in the back, Yanyu Hongchen can expect that when today's matter is over, this guy's guild will definitely fall apart.
At other times, Yanyu Hongchen would think about how to dig up this guy's subordinates and strengthen his own strength, but now, he didn't bother to think about this kind of thing.
"Can you find a way to break out?"
Yan Yu shook his head dimly: "It's basically impossible, those monsters can't see the edge at all, who knows how many there are outside." β
"There are still three hours left until the end of the Crimson Moon, so can we do nothing but die?"
"With all due respect, President, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for even half an hour!" Smoke and rain flipped through his backpack, and then looked at the bow and arrow in his hand helplessly, "If the situation continues to develop now, it will not be possible to maintain the battle line, and after the mage's blue and the archer's ammunition are exhausted, the collapse will only get faster and faster." β
The smoke and rain and the red dust were silent.
"The Soul Breaking Sword is really a good scheming, I didn't expect them to fight to defeat both, and they want to mess up this operation." Although Quan Xianglong was unwilling, for the sake of his own life, he could only choose to be in the same boat with the rain.
"The Dead Man is very smart, very smart, he knows that he can't rob us with real swords and guns, so he chooses this way to weaken us. No matter which of us kills Morgan, in the end, we can only wipe out all the troops after the Soul Breaker Sword is arranged, and when the time comes, a large number of equipment will be lost, materials will be consumed, and guild members will lose their level and soul energy, which is simply fatal for a new guild like us! β
Quan Xianglong wanted to say something, but suddenly felt that the light barrier behind him seemed to flicker.
Delusion?
Obviously not, not only him, but Yanyu Hongchen also noticed this, he quickly turned around, stretched out his hand and touched the barrier full of light.
At the tentacles, the light barrier still looked extremely strong, and the ripples spreading around the contact point silently announced the existence of this barrier, but the smoke and rain Hongchen found that the light of the entire light barrier was gradually weakening.
"He's collapsing!" Yanyu Hongchen immediately realized this fact.
At this moment, Yanyu Hongchen didn't know whether to be happy or worried, the disappearance of the radiance barrier meant that he could finally have a chance to snatch Morgan's kill from Raphael's hands, but after all, this barrier resisted the attack direction of many monsters for them, once lost, it is conceivable that the entire front will collapse in an instant, and I am afraid that even holding on for five minutes is a luxury.
What to do? Smoke and rain and red dust touched the barrier of light, trying to find a way to get the best of both worlds.
However, before he could come up with a result, a loud shout suddenly came from the front of the battle line.
I saw those endless monsters, as if the sea was ebbing, except for the most advanced ones, the rest suddenly stopped attacking, and turned and retreated in unison, as if their enemies were no longer the players in front of them.
Before everyone could react, a dense rain of throwing spears appeared from the thick fog in the distance, and the rain hit the dense monsters like a torrential rain.
It can be seen that the damage of these throwing guns is not low, many monsters are directly pierced by these throwing guns, and they are nailed to the ground, if it weren't for being an undead, it is not fatal to this kind of piercing damage, I'm afraid that there are already whole monsters on the ground.
However, the torrential rain did not stop, and a few seconds later, another burst of rain-like throwing guns flew out, with three waves of throwing guns in front and back, under this dense attack, even the undead monsters, many of them were shattered by the throwing guns because of the exhaustion of health or the soul fire, and turned into corpses and fell to the ground, which made the original dense group of monsters look a lot thinner.
The surviving players, under the protection of the few remaining warriors and knights, cleaned up the monsters in front of them, and watched in amazement as the originally invincible monsters were caught off guard by these sudden throwing guns.
"Who called for reinforcements?" Kwon Sang-ryong asked.
However, Yanyu Hongchen doesn't believe in what kind of reinforcements it is, it's very simple, even the most wealthy Yanyu Jiangnan can't prepare so many throwing guns in such a short time, the three waves of throwing guns just now, the number of throwing guns in each wave definitely exceeds two thousand, this is six thousand throwing guns, where is this throwing guns, it's just throwing money!
The sky-high momentum of the monster sea seemed to be extinguished by this sudden attack, and the originally turbulent tide calmed down in an instant.
In the midst of this calm, it is as if a sound of footsteps can be heard.
Crash! Crash!
The footsteps are getting louder and louder! It's getting clearer! It's getting neater and neater!
Finally, at the edge of the fog as far as the eye could see, a row of city walls appeared!
If you look closely, it turns out that it is not a city wall, but a shield wall composed of a two-meter-high white bone giant shield!
The clearly audible footsteps seemed to step on the hearts of these survivors, bringing bursts of heart palpitations to everyone! The tall and sturdy shield wall pushed those invincible monsters away step by step, and the white bone spear pierced from the crack in the shield wall became the sharpest weapon, like a harvester, harvesting these raging monsters one by one!
Not only the front of the cemetery, but also the sound of footsteps came from all directions!
One, two, three! The front and back three white bone shield walls slowly and firmly rolled over like a road roller, each shield wall was composed of fifty white bone shields, behind the shield wall, spears like a forest!
This is just one direction, left, right, front, back, as far as the eye can see, in all directions, a full sixteen phalanxes like an encirclement, firmly encircling all monsters, including these players.
"Elevation angle 40 degrees, flame charge!"
A deep voice came from behind the phalanx, and as the order was given, hundreds of flame projectiles flew out from behind the shield wall, drawing a rounded arc in the air, and accurately smashing on the heads of those monsters.
The dense fireballs were like bombs, blasting those monsters to the ground.
But that's not the end of it!
"Elevation angle 50 degrees, burst arrows, triple shots!"
The deep voice gave the order again, and this time, arrows with red glow were projected into the heads of the monsters with a density that exceeded the density of the previous throwing guns.
The roar of the flames sounded as if they were about to pierce the eardrums, one after another, and the fierce flames were like brilliant fireworks, venting the anger of the elements!
The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and what appeared in front of the smoke and rain was a mess! The monster that originally seemed endless, like an ocean, under the ravages of throwing guns, flame charges, and bursting arrows, no longer had the apocalyptic appearance of before, but looked like a little white rabbit trembling in the face of the claws of a predator, looking so helpless.
The dense monsters turned into corpses, only those zombies with thick blood and high defense were still moving slowly in confusion, without those skeletons and ghosts, the monster army looked a lot depressed all of a sudden, and the eyes were good, and they could even see the end of the field of vision from the barrier without hindrance.
"Shhh Such a furious attack not only destroyed a large number of monsters, but also suppressed those remaining players.
"The first and second columns retreat, the third column changes weapons, the summoner summons zombies, the archers stop in place, and clear the remnants of the enemy!" A new order came from behind the phalanx, and the shield wall slowly retreated, revealing the undead warriors behind who had replaced the Great Bone Shield with a round shield and a one-handed sword.
At the same time, as the summoning spell sounded, the monster corpses on the ground turned into zombies controlled by humans under the influence of the power of death, and stood up one by one, scuffling with the remaining monsters.
Without the barrier of the shield wall, Yanyu Hongchen can finally see who these sudden reinforcements are.
"Chasseur!" Yanyu Hongchen glanced at it, and he could see where these guys came from.
"Battle Chasseur! Red Whirlwind Hunting Regiment! Wild Storm Hunters! One, two, three, four, five, a whole sixteen hunting regiments! "Forgetfulness was already at the front, and when the hunters raised their banners, he immediately recognized them.
"The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind! I thought we were yellow finch, but I didn't expect us to be the noisy cicada! Yanyu Hongchen smiled bitterly, "I can gather the hunting regiments scattered in multiple cities, unify the equipment, and prohibit it, I don't know which god has this ability!" β
The Hunting Regiment is just a name, they actually still belong to the level of the Mercenary Regiment, and each Hunting Regiment can only contain a maximum of five hundred players, so in the eyes of the guild leader like Yanyu Hongchen, he does not value a mercenary group like the Hunting Regiment, and five hundred people is not a very important force for Yanyu Jiangnan, who has a total of more than three thousand members.
However, what Yanyu Hongchen didn't expect was that when these hunting regiments adopted unified equipment and unified command, they would be able to exert such huge strength, and they would look like an army.
"I can't think of anyone else who has this ability but that!" Quan Xianglong also looked lost, he knew that he had worked hard, and in the end he still made wedding dresses for others.
The zombies that survived the bombardment were wiped out in a short time by the summoned summons and undead warriors, and sixteen hunting regiments lined up in sixteen phalanxes around the cemetery, faintly surrounding the entire glorious barrier.
Facing them, the smoke and rain and red dust, and the phalanx, which was also the main gate of the cemetery, cracked a passage in the middle, and a figure rode out slowly on a tall war horse.
Different from the red eyes affected by the Crimson Moon, the pale face that is indistinguishable from that of a human, the heavy armor, the black cloak that hunts in the night wind, and the tall war horse with a pair of dragon horns like a dragon under his crotch.
"Apostle of the Snake of the Devouring Body, Death Knight Ice Whisper Dry Bone!" Yanyu Hongchen said word by word, every word made him feel an indescribable bitterness, just like the Chinese medicine he drank when he was a child.
