Chapter 202: Contemplation
After going online again, the night was dark, but the county seat of Zhang'an was brightly lit, shrouded in an atmosphere of excitement and tension.
The chaotic roar of the beast became clearer and clearer, and the vibration of the ground became stronger and stronger, and it was obvious that the beast tide would take advantage of the night.
For most beasts to have good night vision, the Alien Beasts will only be stronger in this regard.
This is a big disadvantage for humans who are accustomed to daytime activities and do not have night vision.
The beast tide is led by at least 7th-order alien beasts, and the intelligence of alien beasts of this strength is basically not weaker than that of humans, and they obviously know how to use their strengths and avoid weaknesses, so they choose to attack in the night.
The NPC soldiers on the city wall stared nervously into the distance, even if there were countless torches, they only had a vision of a few tens of meters, and the deep night brought strong fear, and they could only give themselves courage with the faith in their hearts.
In stark contrast, most players only find excitement and excitement, which is perhaps the fearlessness of the ignorant.
Ye Feng was about to take a look at the details of the plot of this beast tide, when he was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
"Brother, do you want to form a team! Later, let's go and kill strange beasts together, double the experience and contribute points. A friendly invitation from a young gamer.
Looking at his equipment, you know that he is a casual player, and his strength should be ordinary.
Ye Feng rarely encountered this kind of thing: "How many of you have now, how is your strength?"
"There are only three people now, but we are a fixed team, and we cooperate tacitly to kill third-order alien beasts and chop melons and vegetables." Young people are quite proud.
Ye Feng immediately knew that the combat power of this squad was only able to deal with third-order alien beasts, and this strength was now very ordinary.
Sure enough, this is the norm, how can you meet elite players casually, Ye Feng shook his head: "No need, I'll see if there is a chance to pick up the leak, thank you!"
"Brother, stop dreaming. Now there are a lot of players in the Firmament Guild in the city, and there are also a lot of Guilds in the Yanhuang Gang, and we have the most chance to kill the mobs. The young man persuaded, but he saw it very thoroughly.
Ye Feng: "Just now someone in the forum said that this beast tide was caused by the Firmament Guild."
"Needless to say, you can guess it, otherwise how could they have so many people in the city now?" The young man had an expression of wisdom beads in his hands.
As he spoke, the ground shook and the surging tide was approaching.
"Don't talk about it, I'm going to see if I can form two more people." As he spoke, the young man ran away.
Players in the city are running back and forth in search of a position where they can get a head start.
The most exciting are the players who use bows and arrows, and climb the city wall in the face of the NPC soldiers' reprimands.
"Mythology" is completely virtual reality, especially after the strength of the individual, the use of bows and arrows is too difficult.
And there are no relevant lock-on skills, even if they have been in the game for a few years, few people can do it.
Coupled with the rarity of good weapons, a large number of players give up halfway, and the players who still use bows and arrows are either elite players or are particularly enthusiastic, with fewer than one percent of the total number of players.
And they still have to suffer from low hit rates, which is far more difficult than other players.
This beast tide is no less than a feast for them, and there will be a dense number of strange beasts under the city wall, and it will be difficult to shoot with their eyes closed on the city wall.
So far, players have not encountered many defensive battles that can show their skills, and if the opponent is human, there will be a way to defend against archers, so today's opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The attack of the alien beast was imminent, Ye Feng gave up the idea of checking the details, anyway, it was nothing more than killing the more powerful the alien beast, the higher the harvest.
He followed the crowd to the closed West Gate, where the players seemed to have become silent.
Because there are thousands of NPC soldiers neatly lined up at the front, there is an air of seriousness and iron blood, this is a battle-hardened border army.
As the most elite army in Zhang'an County, these people obviously have a more important task here.
"Why aren't you leaving?"
"The city gate is not open, how can I go?"
"Then how do we kill the beast?"
"Don't worry, we'll be out of town later."
The surrounding players were all talking in whispers, and Ye Feng waited silently.
"Roar!" Countless beasts roared in their ears, and some players on the city walls cheered loudly.
"It's coming! The beast tide has begun! ”
Not far away, the NPC soldiers on the city wall were full of shadows, and the prepared stones and rolling logs were pushed down piece by piece.
With the screams of countless strange beasts, the soldiers spilled the precious fire oil, threw down a large number of torches, and then the flames burst into the sky under the four city walls.
The first attack of the beast tide was forced back, and it was not until more than an hour later that the firelight gradually disappeared, and the west gate where Ye Feng was located slowly opened.
"Rush!" Immediately following the NPC soldiers, players rushed out of the city gates in excitement.
Ye Feng blew his nose, the air was filled with a strong smell of burning, hundreds of meters outside the city gate were charred ash and animal stumps, and the surrounding city walls were mixed with chaotic stones.
Most players are accustomed to such a tragic scene, only the endless beasts not far away make people's scalps tingle.
The NPC soldiers formed a formation to resist immediately, and from the still scarred city wall, it could be seen that the first wave of attacks of the beast tide alone was effective.
Although the city wall of the county town is strong, it can't last long even if it is attacked by the beast tide, and it is an inevitable choice to go out of the city to fight in the field.
This was obviously expected by the experienced border army of the Han Dynasty.
The NPC army is under the most intense care of the alien beasts, and the player team is only able to pick up leaks around the corner.
"Kill! This is a Rank 4 Alien Beast. ”
The first wave almost eliminated the weakest Tier 2 Alien Beasts, and now the ones facing are basically Tier 3 and Tier 4 Alien Beasts, which are exactly what players can defeat, so it's no wonder that players are so excited.
Ye Feng wandered around, looking for a target that could be killed with one hit.
With his current situation, he could only locate a Rank 4 Alien Beast and a seriously injured Tier 5 Alien Beast.
"Ahh In the face of a steady stream of strange beasts, players are killed from time to time, and the small number of squads is like duckweed in the sea, not knowing when they will be overwhelmed by strange beasts.
Only an elite team of hundreds or thousands of guild members can stand still, and Ye Feng found a lot of Tier 4 players among them.
It's been almost a year since he advanced to Tier 4, but there haven't been Tier 5 players in the entire game, but there are already quite a few Tier 4 players.
Even Ye Feng, whose level is surpassed by some people, but whether it is to obtain intermediate internal strength or internal strength to break through the second layer, it is another difficulty.
Therefore, although Ye Feng's advantage in strength still exists, it is no longer big.
These Tier 4 players can also kill Tier 4 Beasts, and even compete against Tier 5 Beasts.
After more than an hour, the fierce fighting left both the player and the NPC soldiers a little tired.
"Ahh "Ahh The screams rang out as the light of the player's death lit up all around.
A large number of high-level alien beasts took the opportunity to infiltrate the battlefield and constantly harvested the lives of the enemy.
With no soldiers and no teammates, Ye Feng had only killed a dozen Tier 4 Alien Beasts and one seriously injured Tier 5 Alien Beast during this time.
"Not good!" Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of crisis, and instinctively used [Angry Heart] + [Angry Strike], and rushed out more than ten meters to the side at great speed.
Turning his head, he saw that all the players within ten meters of the place where he was standing had been emptied.
Before he could think about it, a sense of crisis rose again, and [Angry Strike] was once again used by him as an escape technique.
After returning to the city several times in a row, Ye Feng collapsed to the ground, took out his dried meat and began to replenish his strength.
Away from danger for a moment, and once again experiencing weakness, he quietly began to meditate.
