Chapter 56, immobile as a mountain
"You say... Will they really come? ”
"Shouldn't it? There is no other way back than the Path of the Dead. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"However, I think people have already made such a lot of money, and there is no shortage of fame and equipment, even if they go shopping in the rear until they die, there is no loss."
"You're right... Hehe, but at least the path of the dead is safer than the guy sent to pursue it, right? ”
"That's true! I've heard that the leading mage can use some strange magic and kill 4 or 500 people in one go! ”
"Well, that's an exaggeration."
…
One of the branches of the Trail of the Dead, Guiru has arranged for a considerable number of people to block it... In fact, all but this trail was blocked by them! At this stage, when it is impossible to "fly and move", this means that there is no way back for the undead species to enter the human world.
As for the hard passage... Such a choice cannot be said to be impossible, but doing this kind of thing in a relatively single area of terrain also means that the attacking undead species will lose room to turn around. Once they were surrounded from the rear, they were left with only one dead end.
However, just when everyone was holding this idea, an unexpected event happened...
Even if the clouds are shrouded and the weather is bad, judging from the terrain on the outside of the passage, once someone approaches, the players guarding the intersection can still easily spot it... Even if you have the ability to stealth, in the narrow area of the intersection, there are constantly mages who use spells such as "undead creature detection" to detect, so in principle, there is no possibility of being attacked by the station.
But even so, when the vague figure in the distance gradually approached, everyone couldn't help but raise their hearts to their throats...
A white joint staff.
A deep black robe.
A terrifying ghost walking alone in the wilderness!
Legend has it that a terrifying monster that can suppress an entire mass of fire with the power of a single person!!
At that moment, the brain sketched the whole image of the comer faster than the eyes, and then let himself and his comrades fall into silence.
In fact, if there are only NPCs designed by the system to gather so many titles, then as a player, I am afraid that it will not be so silent, because no matter how powerful the AI program is, as long as it does not trespass into its territory, it will not be a big problem...
But this time, when this kind of monster incarnation beyond the scope of normal human comprehension becomes a member of the player, or even a member of the player of the rival camp, those who dare to oppose it will face double the fear!
"It's... Is that guy!? ”
"Hurry up and tell the bosses! That guy is coming!! ”
"Who! Who is it!? ”
"Who else could it be? It's raining and it's cold!! ”
… If before this, the perception of most human players with the name Yu Zhihan was still stuck in the video on the official website, then after Odertown and a series of events that followed, I believe that no human player will be unfamiliar with this elusive but amazingly destructive necromancer.
So much so that even if the level gap can't provide insight into the ID and specific information of the other party, just the appearance and characteristics of the undead species can cause the players in charge of guarding the passage into a panic.
But as the mage's figure approached the passage more and more, there was never a single other undead player around him... From beginning to end, the guards were there, and there were only 15 summoned dead men, solemnly guarding the rain and cold.
This discovery made the players in the Ruins Land restless again.
"He's like... Is it a person coming? ”
"How could there be an ambush!"
"It's just, didn't you listen to the guy who met him in Odemilin before? This guy is at least four large groups of people with him! ”
"When will the reinforcements arrive..."
The atmosphere of doubt and tension permeated the narrow passage, and the tense nerves were about to reach the limit because of the mage's gradual approach, for these human players who were responsible for defending and intercepting, if they had to face the terrifying army of the undead sooner or later, it would be better to show up in a battle earlier... At least you don't have to be like now, with the fear of approaching monsters that you can't even spy on, and at the same time you have to guard against the blood-colored mass that will appear out of nowhere...
However, the more this is the case, the more the rain and cold, who foresaw everything, the more he did not move, and he was surrounded by the dead followers, and he just continued to walk towards the defense line built by the ruins of the defense line according to the original pace. Completely ignoring the knives and guns that are constantly aimed at themselves.
"He... It seems like there's really only one person? ”
"Impossible."
"Could it be some tactic? Or is someone else hiding? ”
"There are mountain walls on both sides, where can they hide?"
The instructions were too late, and the follow-up reinforcements did not arrive, and for the dozens of people crowded at the entrance of the passage, all the choices were only based on their own judgment of the situation in front of them.
After experiencing nervousness, hesitation, and uneasiness, after seeing the rain and cold really coming towards them single-handedly, the illusion from the so-called "many people" finally made them take action...
"Or... Try to hit him in a wave? ”
"What are you kidding!? I don't want to send myself in. ”
"Coercion! This guy came to die by himself, should he just let him go! ”
"If I want to go up to you, I won't go."
"Don't pull it down! Hmph, this is an opportunity to make a name for yourself! ”
The huge benefits brought by the operation gave the garrison the confidence to take risks, and seeing that the rain was falling into the cold and the footsteps did not stop, there were finally people in the passage who could not stand it and took the initiative to step out of the defensive position.
Of course... The first to strike are some of the classes that excel at ranged attacks, and with their safe attack range, these guys take their own hands and then use the "projectile" method to cause the desired damage as they approach the rain and cold.
However, this level of attack alone is obviously difficult to defeat the battle-hardened necromancer - through the cooperation of the dead followers, almost no attack can penetrate the defense line of the undead, and really bring damage to Yu Zhihan, but under the dense attack like a rain of bullets, Yu Zhihan's progress has also stopped, as if it was blocked by the soldiers' blades, losing its former majesty.
Undoubtedly, such a reaction is undoubtedly an encouragement for players who take the initiative to attack... Under their own attacks, they really felt the possibility of killing the mage, and they even hoped to win the honor of being the last to kill.
As a result, more and more players couldn't resist their inner impulses and joined the battle with great anticipation... Only a very few people have keenly discovered that although they have not taken a single step forward since the beginning of the war, the mages who were protected by the dead followers are like an immobile mountain, and they have not retreated even half a step...
PS: Still not very comfortable ... Could it be an irregular heartbeat? What a disaster... (To be continued.) )
