The food for the evening was delivered to the soldiers of the temple as quickly as noon to make dinner, and Rose took the money and left the army with the team, leaving only a few hundred scout mosquitoes squatting in the nearby trees. After a day's march, the army of the Temple of Light is now at the exit on the other side of the forest, where there is a river in front and a forest in the back, and the environment is quite good. Listening to the sound of gurgling water, the soldiers, who had eaten and drunk for a long day, finally couldn't help but fall asleep.
The soldiers slept, but the generals could not. In the chief's tent, a dozen priests and angelic officers discussed the next course of action.
The Angel Legion Leader said very optimistically: "Now that we have received food supplies, the food sent by that angelic lady is enough for tomorrow's day, and they will continue to supply us, this financial consumption is not a concern for us at all." In our current state, even if the enemy dares to sneak attack, we can calmly deal with it. As long as the separated home team can guarantee the same pace of march as us, at most on the night of the 21st, that is, tomorrow night, they will be able to join us. As long as the army is united, no one will be able to touch us in the slightest. ”
A priest came out and said, "I think it......" The priest suddenly frowned, but quickly recovered and continued: "Although we are in good shape, the army is not safe after all, and the combination of troops in the team is ...... ......" His face suddenly turned ugly, and his brows were twisted together, as if he was enduring some pain.
The angel next to him looked at him suspiciously. "High Priest Hammies, what's wrong with you?"
The priest's face suddenly turned pale. "Ah, nothing. I'm saying that everyone's land is not comprehensive, and if you are attacked, the loss may be relatively large, so ...... So......! His words suddenly stuttered again.
"High priest?" The angels all looked at him and waited for him to finish.
The High Priest's face was twisting and changing, and the others didn't know what he was up to. Suddenly, the high priest's brows relaxed, and ......a tactful and long fart sound resounded throughout the handsome tent. For a moment, all the people in the tent were stunned. "Wow! Gas! An angel suddenly screamed and covered his nose at the same time. Then the whole tent suddenly exploded, and the commanders rushed out with their noses covered, only the high priest himself was holding his buttocks and rushing out, running all the way and making a machine-gun fire-like snapping sound all the way. The guards outside, the soldiers all looked at their commander with stunned expressions. It wasn't until the high priest rushed out that they understood what was going on.
Even if the poor high priest doesn't die this time, he probably won't have the face to see anyone when he returns. But he can't manage that much now, and what he is most concerned about now is to find a place to make it convenient. The High Priest rushed into a small deserted wood, and then a loud noise was heard from inside. The soldier in a tent near the woods rolled over and muttered, "Who is still playing with guns so late?" It's really immoral! ”
Just as the generals were laughing heartily at each other, suddenly a soldier ran up to the generals. "Grow up the angel of power, it's not good!"
"What's the flustered about? Take your time. ”
The soldier said anxiously, "It looks like we've been plotted." ”
"What did you say?"
"Half an hour ago, people in the mage camp started to have diarrhea, and I didn't pay attention to it before, thinking that the food was not very clean, but after that, there were more and more people who had diarrhea. Now the entire mage camp is in chaos. The military priest has scouted with divine magic, and everyone has been poisoned with laxatives, and it has penetrated deep into the body and cannot be removed. It is impossible to recover without waiting for yourself to pass the past! ”
"How so? Haven't they all used magic to scout? An archangel asked.
The soldier immediately said: "Laxatives are not poisons, and doctors sometimes use laxatives to treat some special diseases, which are not harmful things." Our ordinary magic can only detect evil drugs, and does not respond to laxatives. Because the food was fine before, the priests let their guard down. Therefore, I didn't use a large magic technique that could distinguish the types of drugs, only a small reconnaissance magic skill, so I ......! ”
"Is it that all the mages are having diarrhea?"
"All the mages are pulling. Moreover, the first few frail mages have begun to appear in a coma, and it seems that the dosage is very heavy. ”
"...... that?" The archangel suddenly realized something. But it was too late now, because he suddenly heard a loud grunt from the guards on both sides of the tent, as if someone's stomach was ringing, and the guard's face turned green in an instant, and he hurriedly raised his hand to apply for someone else's substitute, and he himself held his stomach and rushed into the forest.
Almost instantly, the entire camp began to sound one fart after another, and the camp was boiling. At this time, the guild leaders who were sitting inside the scout mosquito and watching the live broadcast were all rolling on the ground in fear. The scene of 7.5 million people having diarrhea at the same time was so spectacular that all the people squatting in the forest made disgusting noises, and from time to time a few frail people fainted in the forest.
In the army of seven and a half million, almost all of them were recruited except for angels and divine beasts that did not eat food, and even the high paladins could not withstand such a strong laxative, and many column commanders joined the ranks of diarrhea. Several angels are in sharp circles in place. They don't actually have a very comfortable stomach, but they don't have the same resistance as the humans.
The entire forest became a minefield overnight, and there was yellow filth everywhere, which really stinked for ten miles in the wind, and the last few high-level demonic beasts in the forest that were not scared away by the dragon also stinked away. Early the next morning, the army finally moved to the river after a night's toss, but the river could not be crossed.
A paladin with a sallow face and vain steps reported to the archangel Quan: "Report to my lordship, I ...... Our army is 7.5 million strong...... Except for the 300,000 Angel Legion, which barely retains its basic combat effectiveness, the remaining troops have all lost their combat effectiveness. More than 300 frail mages died in the mage battalion, the soldiers basically struggled to stand up, and the vindictive officers could barely walk. Checkmate. We are now unable to cross the river by force, many of us can only barely crawl, and if we force ourselves to cross the river, we will not be attacked by the enemy, and we ourselves will have to drown half of ourselves. ”
"Then you can't wait for death here! The other party has given laxatives, and must know that we are powerless to resist now. They're going to attack us right away, so we have to find a way to get out of here. ”
Another angel said, "My lord, since the other party knows that we have lost our ability to move, they will definitely not let us go." Most of their troops are highly powered air cavalry, and running a day in our current state is just an extra hour for the family to run, so I think it's useless to escape. ”
"You can't just sit and die, can you? How many others can fight? ”
"I don't think it's better for us to form a defensive line on the spot. Even if our soldiers were to fall and more than seven million people gathered in a group, it would not be so easy for them to eat them all in one go. Even if we lose a lot, at least we won't be wiped out. ”
"The High Priest is right, that's all we have to say!"
After a brief discussion, the army of the Legion of Light began to regroup into a circle. And try to shrink the area of the team, so that you can rely on the advantage of numbers to generate a certain amount of defense, at least the crowd will not be scattered in one rush. As the supreme commander of this part of the legion, the archangel of the land inspected the entire camp worriedly. But the more he looks at it now, the more worried he becomes. The continuous hunger before getting the food consumed too much of the soldiers' bodies, and although they ate a few full meals after that, they were all pulled out last night, and now their stomachs are still empty. In addition, diarrhea consumes more than just food. And moisture. People need water, and dehydration can occur when a large amount of water is lost in a short period of time, which is very dangerous. If you don't do it, you can kill people. Now more than half of the entire legion is slightly dehydrated, almost all of them are in a dying state, not to mention defense, they may fall down at any time if they stand there.
In addition to the problems of physical function itself, the nerves of the soldiers are also under a lot of pressure. The first is tiredness. There are no flush toilets for you to use in the field, and the result of squatting all night on the horse is that these soldiers are now standing there with cramps in their legs and stomachs, and their whole bodies hurt as if they were about to fall apart. In addition to tiredness, sleepiness is also a big threat. I kept squatting all night, and no one had a chance to sleep. The soldiers who had not slept for more than 24 hours were in a very bad mental state, and many of them had blue eyelids and constant anger. In such a state, defending against the enemy's attack is basically nonsense.
Unlike the army of the Legion of Light, our guild is preparing for an outing, and Rose stands on a high platform and shouts to a amplified crystal: "Members of the Guild, as well as the volunteers of the Blood Alliance, you can start celebrating now." The Legion of Light now has a forward unit that has been separated from the team, they have not eaten normally for three consecutive days, and we secretly gave laxatives last night, and collectively pulled all night, and now they are tired, hungry and sleepy, do you know what this means? ”
"Experience!" A terrifying gutary-throat scream erupted below.
"That's right." Rose said loudly: "This legion has a total of 7.5 million people, of which except for more than 100,000 angels who still have half of the usual combat strength, the rest of the place is soft-footed shrimp, but the level of these soft-footed shrimp is still high-level monsters. The dual state of diarrhea and hunger has reduced their health to half of their usual level, and their combat effectiveness is basically zero, you only need to use the power of killing a hundred level monsters to take down these five-hundred, six-hundred, or even seven-hundred-level enemies, I promise that you will all level up after today. Let me conclude by reiterating the caveat. There are 7.5 million enemies, and we only have more than 50,000 people in total, so it's definitely enough for everyone to share, so don't rob the monster, if you meet a high-level angel, everyone must cooperate with each other, we are going to travel to brush up experience, not to let people kill, so we must ensure zero casualties. Experience points are everyone's rewards, and if you explode money, it will also belong to you, but things like exploding equipment and magic pet eggs must be handed in. The guild is right for everyone in terms of welfare, and everyone should also be worthy of the guild at a critical moment. Okay, that's all, let's go. ”
At ten o'clock in the morning of the 21st German time, the day that the archangel of the Legion of Light predicted that they would meet in the evening, they encountered another army. This is certainly not the main force they hoped for, but the leveling team organized by our guild. Although their main force is not as miserable as theirs, they are also busy with their own affairs. Even if we don't kill them now, they won't be able to wait for this main force to converge.
The players of the Blood Alliance who came to support us in the war were all brought together, and with the players of our guild, there were a total of 50,000 people, but compared to 7.5 million Earth Light Legion. We're still too few. However, at this time, everyone doesn't care about the number of people on the other side, and it is estimated that if there are 75 million enemies on the other side, everyone will be happier.
The angels soon spotted us and immediately stood in front of us to make a final resistance, but what made them desperate was not the player, but 100,000 elite air cavalry from Heaven. There are many kinds of soldiers sold by Heavenly Court, and in order to meet the battle this time, the seven million Heavenly Soldiers we newly purchased are all relatively ordinary models, plus two million high-level Heavenly Soldiers, and the average strength is between angels and paladins. Under normal conditions, the strength of ordinary angels and middle and high-level celestial soldiers is equal, and high-level angels can be about the same as the highest-level celestial soldiers or the lowest-level celestial generals. However, at present, all of our 100,000 air cavalry here are elite air cavalry of the highest level. Isn't it trivial to deal with these disgruntled angels?
A few angels couldn't stand it, plus we players were in the back from time to time to release dark arrows or something, and the 100,000 angels were quickly put down by the 100,000 elite air cavalry. At the same time that the angelic legion fell. The few griffins and other light beasts were also brought down by the Celestial General and the dragons we brought, and the remaining ones were seven and four hundred thousand paladins who were more than dead, light mages, light priests, and the like.
At my command, everyone immediately rushed forward and began to slaughter. The frail mages were all unconscious, and the priests could only moan on the ground, twitching occasionally. The paladins are slightly better, barely able to stand up, and the ones who hold weapons are all high-level paladins who can fight hard. Occasionally, I encountered a ranger-level paladin who could resist, and they were all collectively besieged and killed. The remaining soldiers could only fly in vain and began to flee in all directions. Oh no, running away is not accurate, it should be called escape crawling. There was no one left here to run, so they had to crawl away.
Rose first persuaded to surrender according to the plan of resource optimization, but found that the other party was a believer with a strong faith, so he could only kill them all. That night, downstream of the river that flows through the woodlands, players in a player city are surprised to find that the water has turned red and the smell of blood is still strong in the water. Many people saw a lot of bloodthirsty monsters along the way, constantly drinking river water. Even some NPC vampires have given up hunting and have switched to drinking river water.
A younger player looked at the river and asked the people around him, "Isn't this all blood?" ”
"Do you think that those demonic beasts have a collective genetic mutation, and they can fill their stomachs as long as they drink water?" The answer was a middle-aged player.
"Oh my God! How many people's blood would it take to dye all the water of such a river red? ”
"Judging by the flow of the river and the concentration of the blood, at least five million or more people died at the same time somewhere upstream in a short period of time, and all their blood flowed into the river."
Another person interjected and said, "I heard that the Temple of Light has been attacking the Frost Rose Alliance recently, could it be that they are fighting upstream?" ”
The middle-aged player said, "Probably it's them." With this amount of blood, both sides have lost at least a few million people. NPCs are all perverts, needless to say. On the contrary, it was the Frost Rose Alliance, which was really a big deal, and if it had killed so many people, if it had been a general guild, it would probably have been over. ”
Contrary to the speculation of those of them who are not in the know, our side is immersed in a beastly excitement. Why do so many people like violent games like Zero? Just because of stress and violence. The pace of modern life is tense, and the accumulated pressure in work and life needs to be relieved, and it is best to vent in the game. Moreover, before becoming the spirit of all things in the suit and leather shoes that we are now, we humans were also wrapped in animal skins and killed from the wild forest. Human beings have suppressed some of their violent tendencies in the process of development, but the instinct has not completely disappeared, so there are still people who worship violence and prefer blood.
Today's massacre is a complete revelation of human instinct. I stood on a nearby tree trunk and looked down the whole time during the massacre, and I didn't participate in this bloody ritual except for the occasional intervention to deal with a strong enemy who suddenly came out. I have witnessed the process of the following people degrading from humans back to beasts, the meaning of slaughter and fighting monsters is different, in the face of the enemy who can't resist, everyone first thinks that they can pick up the cheap one and rush to kill, and then the human nature attacks, many people have stopped, but as the blood flow more and more, human nature begins to be submerged, instinct takes over the command, and everyone gradually recovers to become a member of the wild beasts.
I'm not having any disdain for the members of the guild, I just want to see the difference between humans and beasts. For a long time, because of the transformation that Long Yuan made in me, I began to doubt the definition of "human", and I needed to figure out what a person is and what it means to be human. In the midst of this carnage, I felt as if I had grabbed something, but eventually let it slip away. However, when a female member who is usually very quiet and well-behaved like a little princess suddenly appeared in front of me covered in blood and with a smile on her face, I suddenly figured it out.
This little girl is a secretarial major, and she is usually very well-behaved, and she has been following the rose in the guild, and I am quite familiar with her. She held a staff that was still dripping blood and asked me standing on the tree, "President, why don't you brush up a few steps?" ”
I smiled knowingly. "This little experience is not enough for me to brush, I have a high level, I need to kill high-level monsters, these levels are too low, if I kill it, I lose experience, it's not cost-effective. Just have fun with yourselves. ”
"Oh." The little girl turned and joined the beast again.
Before it gets dark at night, everyone wears armor in the river to clean all the blood and internal organs on their bodies, and then the group teleports back to Tianyu City. I believe that after today, these people will change more or less, not to become murderers and criminals, but to become more active human beings, because human beings are creatures who strive to survive, and this has nothing to do with physical changes, this is a spirit, a form. With this analysis, I can at least be sure that I am a person.
Anyway, after practicing in the afternoon, everyone brushed up the level a lot. Collective leveling can be divided into experience, and I watched it on the side for an afternoon and actually upgraded by half a level, which is really a terrifying total amount of experience. However, I am the president, and I have honor points, and other members can't get so many points, but they still have a lot of experience in the enemies they directly kill, and the most unlucky people have also been promoted to at least fifty levels, which is simply a collective great leap forward. The most exaggerated players actually rose to more than 300 levels in one afternoon, I really don't know how they practiced.
On the twenty-second, early the next morning, the rearguard legion of the Temple of Light, cut off, finally belatedly reached the edge of the forest where the massacre had taken place. The entire army was stunned. They were harassed many times by the god of war along the way, and at the huge cost of reducing their strength by 1.5 million, the main army arrived at the designated place half a day ahead of schedule with the remaining 14 million troops, only to be joined by a black land that was condensed into iron plates by blood and water and corpses all over the mountains.
"Who the hell did this?" One of the two members of the House of Elders who accompanied the army roared angrily.
The army commander ordered the army to rest in place, and then crossed the river with a few main men and a small number of guards. The situation here is too tragic for the follow-up army to see, otherwise the morale will fall all the way to the bottom. In addition, they would rather find some survivors, or at least know what means the enemy used to attack the more than 7 million people. As an experienced commander, this angel knew at a glance that there was no trace of resistance on the scene, which means that these seven million people did not die in a frontal defeat, and in connection with the characteristics of our guild's actions over the past few days, it is easy to think that this team must have been calculated by some kind of scheme, otherwise it would not be more than seven million people who did not even have a single messenger left.
