Chapter 299: Retreat to the Rich Zone
The hands of the statue of Ferdinand were blown apart, and the greatsword fell off and plunged directly into the ground at the city gate because of the force of the explosion.
Everyone in the city felt the ground tremble beneath their feet.
The boat was carried by the waves, and everyone looked at the scene in amazement.
Today's siege has changed beyond their expectations. Before they came, they thought that the enemy would be stubborn at best, and they relied on the numerical advantage to directly crush it, and finally stepped on the corpse of the human leader BOSS to complete this siege, and finally got together to take a group photo.
It's not that they didn't think that humans would resist, but the bombing of the dock and the city was completely unexpected.
The greatsword did not stick vertically into the ground, but formed a certain inclination.
The Engineer saw the scene outside through the crystal ball and pressed the second red button in his hand.
The tail of the hilt of the sword is equipped with a small power propulsion device, which is to give the giant sword a certain forward power after it is inserted into the ground, so as to facilitate the acceleration and smashing down.
Two small power propulsion devices were activated, spewing out two wisps of tail flames more than a meter long, pushing the giant sword and continuing to lean forward.
Originally, there was a certain angle, but now with the thruster "pushing the waves", the speed at which the giant sword was covered gradually increased.
The rowing apostle player seems to have reacted, this huge giant sword is ready to smash down with a head and face!
"Row, run!"
Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
Beginning to have the Apostle players constantly react and start rowing backwards.
However, the gap in the defensive circle was only ten meters wide, and now thousands of small boats were pouring in inside, how easy was it to get out?
"Hurry back in the back, are you paralyzed?"
"It's almost smashing down, please get out quickly!"
Others simply stood up and jumped directly onto other boats, performing repeated sideways jumps to escape from the area where the greatsword had fallen.
Suddenly, these apostle players who wanted to land were panicked, and some even jumped into the sea with nowhere to hide.
From the crystal ball, Fuman saw that these apostles were in a mess, and they had completely become a pot of porridge.
The giant sword slammed down, directly smashing countless small boats, and countless apostle players turned into white light under the giant sword and disappeared in place. Players who jumped into the sea were not spared, and tons of sea water lifted by the greatsword directly submerged them.
In an instant, the monstrous waves slapped mercilessly on the player's face, and they were directly stoned to death without saying a word!
Countless small boats were photographed into debris and sawdust, floating on the surface of the sea. The waves even hit the protective circle, surging back and forth. There are also a small number of explosions along the gap, killing a lot of boats and players blocked in the gap.
As the "chief planner", Fuman couldn't help but gasp, this power was inevitably a little too terrifying.
"If Fei Gong knew that the giant sword in his hand could cause this effect, he would probably be pleased."
"Although we can't get accurate data, if this sword is smashed, there should be 10,000 direct and indirect casualties."
The human rebels in the city suddenly felt more confident that everything was going according to their settings. The apostles can come in, but you have to pay a terrible price!
Anubis, who was wrestling with the huge battleship, saw this scene and snorted coldly, these apostle players are all waste. When attacking, he didn't use his mind at all and lost all the people. The adjutant on the side was directly dumbfounded, this is the determination of human beings to resist desperately! Even the huge sculptures at the pier and the main entrance dare to blow up, what else do they dare not do?
"This bunch of waste, dying so hastily, will only delay our offensive plans. They also thought that there was no price to die here. Tell the rest of the warriors to clear the obstacles as soon as possible and attack the human holy capital. ”
The lieutenant quickly informed Anubis of the Grim Reaper's thoughts, and on the player's side, it was directly changed to the form of a mission, with an additional countdown bar, and if the mission could not be completed within the specified time, the mission would be considered a failure.
This is completely unacceptable for players who have traveled through mountains and rivers and traveled by boat for days to reach the Human Empire. Isn't it a waste of time to spend a lot of effort to come over, but you can't get a reward for failing the mission! Although the remaining players are also afraid of dying like the previous players, what is the big deal of dying once compared to failing the mission?
In just two waves, the number of apostle warriors hung more than 20,000, which was definitely a big loss for the apostolic army.
Others don't know, but these resurrected apostle players lack to personally feel the pressure of playing away.
After resurrecting, these dead players all have an amalous status called [Suppression] on their bodies.
[Suppression]: -5% for all attributes, and the time to wait for respawn after the next death is extended by 10 times.
Wait for the respawn time to be increased by 10 times!
All the resurrected Apostle players gasped, it was completely fatal!
Usually the waiting time after the first death is 10 seconds, and the waiting time after the second death becomes 3 minutes. Now there is a [Suppression] effect on the away battle, and the resurrection time will be changed to 30 minutes after the next death!
The news quickly spread throughout the Apostle player community, and players who were eager to try it before were instantly intimidated.
It's okay to die, but if you die a few more times, the resurrection time will be several hours, and you will miss all the opportunities.
Especially in the entire group of players who came, the players of the Mars Group Guild accounted for the majority. If they rushed forward rashly, wouldn't they make a wedding dress for Ma Sloppy, and beat for a long time to make the other party eat a lot of money at the end?
After receiving the news, the other guilds immediately chose to stay put, even if the mission fails, they can't be cheap and sloppy!
Ships on the front line reconnect all resurrected Apostle players to the front line.
When Ma Huo came to the front line again, he found that none of the Apostle players chose to rush up, and they were all watching the play on the sidelines, which made Ma Huo's face even more clouded, and this group of sand sculptures were actually watching the play.
Sloppy saw through their thoughts at a glance, nothing more than not wanting to sacrifice in vain and make a wedding dress for the Ma Group Guild.
After all, this time, the Ma Group Guild monopolized nearly half of the places, and with the death waiting time extended tenfold, they would definitely not be able to gain the advantage of taking the lead.
Ma sloppily waved his hand and said: "Members of the Ma Group Guild, the whole army is attacking!" ”
He can't control some of the other miscellaneous fish guilds, but he came this time to get the achievement of killing the boss boss, and by the way, he completed the task to gain prestige, and went to the Sun Disc to change jobs.
With the chairman's order, the players of the Mars Group Guild rushed in......
Fuman saw the apostle coming again in the crystal ball, and hurriedly ordered everyone to take their positions and start a new round of defense.
As the main gate was breached, the players of the Mars Group Guild rushed in. Of course, they were greeted naturally not by flowers and applause, but by fires and traps.
Once again, Fuman's decision was in effect, and the traps completely blocked the apostles, and the human resistance, musketeers, and mages in the distant trenches were constantly reaping the apostles like an autumn harvest of wheat.
Joshua was in the trenches, stunned by the battle in front of him.
These were all arranged by the senior brother, including the dock and the giant sword before, and the two waves of decision-making were enough to kill the army of 20,000 apostles.
If he hadn't chosen his elder brother as the commander-in-chief of this campaign at that time, there would never have been such a good situation as now. And in the process, Fuman showed more of his commanding skills than luck.
Joshua was stunned when he heard Fuman's tone in the trenches become rapid.
"Everyone be careful, this time the apostle is a little different, don't panic, the mage uses large-scale spells to carry out area strikes! Priest add blood! ”
Joshua turned his eyes and found that these apostles were not afraid of life and death at all, and did not go to the thieves to lift the trap at all, but organized a group of death squads and directly stepped on the trap to kill them.
Although the traps are dense, they can't stand the apostles directly on the death squad!
Soon the number of traps was reduced by half, and there was still a distance of 100 meters to reach the trench of the civilian front.
Fu was sweating profusely, and this group of guys was not afraid of death at all, and came directly from the trap.
All the slain apostles turned into white light and disappeared, but the apostles immediately filled their positions and rose to the challenge.
"If it goes on like this, the civilian area won't be able to withstand it for long, and they can kill it in ten minutes at most!"
Fuman was also very anxious, but he was also quite shocked to see that this group of apostles was not afraid of death at all.
He had heard from his young master that these people who turned into white light after death were called "players", and these players were blessed by the gods and could be resurrected infinitely, but each resurrection had to give the gods some "price".
But Fuman didn't expect that these people were so fierce that they weren't even afraid of death!
"Now arrange for the retreat of personnel in batches, and we will quickly retreat to the rich area, where we still have the strength to fight."
Fuman has another hand of preparation in the wealthy area to fight these apostolic "players" on a large scale. Now the civilian area is unguardable, and it must be evacuated as soon as possible to ensure that there are no casualties.
As the Resistance was methodically withdrawing, Joshua heard that he was going to abandon the civilian area and suddenly thought of the Holy City prison. The Holy City Prison is located in the northwest corner of the civilian area, if they choose to evacuate now and the civilian area completely falls, then the Holy City Prison will be completely surrounded by the apostles, and there are still many jailers in the prison, isn't it ......
"There are still some soldiers guarding the Holy City Prison, if we directly abandon the civilian area, they will become outcasts, facing the wrath of the apostolic forces, I must go over and explain the situation to them, and lead them to retreat!" Joshua was unequivocal.
Fuman was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect the soldiers of the Holy City Prison to still hold on. In this situation, it is necessary to unite all the forces that can be united, twisted into a rope, in order to resist the invasion of the apostolic army.
Fuman immediately decided to rescue all the soldiers in the Holy City Prison. As for the prisoners inside after the soldiers left, when the apostles actually attacked, they might be able to resist for a while and kill some of the apostles. Of course, it is also possible for them to turn against the apostles and attack humanity......
"Joshua, you are familiar with the situation in the Holy City prison, and you are responsible for bringing all the soldiers back. Remember, we only have ten minutes, and you must get to the Al-Quds prison within ten minutes to bring all the soldiers back! ”
Joshua nodded heavily, with a serious expression: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”
Joshua quickly disappeared at the end of the street, and Fuman let out a breath of turbidity and said, "Let's hold on for the last ten minutes, and everyone will cheer up!" ”
Joshua rushed to the Holy City prison as fast as he could, and told the two responsible people the news of the abandonment of the civilian area.
The two leaders were also quick to respond, and all the jailers began to assemble in full gear.
"Your Highness, what are you going to do with these prisoners? Do you want to keep them here? ”
Joshua's words silenced Joshua, who was the ultimate mortal staker of the human race, despite the heinous murderers.
"I want to let them go......" Joshua himself was taken aback by his own thoughts, but when he said them, he was more convinced.
Not only Joshua, but even the two leaders were shocked, this idea was really too bold.
"I confessed my identity in prison before, and they had the opportunity to hold me hostage and force them to let them out, but in the end they didn't. So I think they still have a conscience on the major issues of right and wrong. ”
"Now that the apostles are about to break through the civilian area, it is only a dead end for them to stay here, so let them all go. Those who are willing to fight with us will stay, and those who are unwilling will let them go. In the final moments of the human empire, I felt that they all had the right to make their own choices. ”
Joshua "talks to himself", but does not notice the radio device in the hands of the two responsible persons.
This is the broadcasting equipment used by the prison director's office to convey information directly to the whole prison. By speaking through this device, words can be transmitted to all corners of the prison.
The two persons in charge did not speak, but just glanced at each other.
While His Royal Highness was speaking, the head of the Royal Praetorian Guard quietly took out the radio and recorded all the conversations of the people just now. Although the two didn't know what it would do, at least let these prisoners in the prison know who let them out.
"We only have ten minutes, and it took a few minutes when I came, and now there is not much time left for us, so hurry up and release them!"
Joshua tightened a string, and every second counted.
In the four major areas of east, west, north and south, the machine can only be responsible for the opening of the four gates and the main gate, and all the doors inside have to be opened manually.
"Now go to each region and open the prison immediately!"
With the last command, everyone moved.
The prisoners in the prison all heard the words of the little prince before, and they thought that the prison and the little prince had joined forces to make a trick, after all, Joshua had also come in to talk with the three heavenly kings before, and finally failed.
Maybe this is their calculation to buy people's hearts again?
But just when they were suspicious, the prison guards opened the floodgates one by one and came in, with indescribable expressions on their faces: "You are free!" ”
At the same time, the people in the trenches in the civilian area have numb scalps.
The mad Apostle player was already in front of him, and he was only a dozen or twenty meters away from the trench.
This is already the final limit distance.
"Haven't they come back yet, little prince?" Fuman asked.
"No, there's no news from the trenches in the rich area!"
The Apostle players are all going crazy, and they're about to fight these human resistance forces in the face.
Fu Man's teeth were clenched, and his heart was already in chaos, and heaven and man were at war.
It was only when I had no choice but to give the final order: "Withdraw, all staff withdraw to the rich area to defend!" ”
