"The third wall! These humans are really capable of building! By the time Arthur, the Necromantic King, slowly raised his third finger, three of the six low walls that had once stood in front of the town of Burkna had fallen into the hands of the undead.
"Little devil! Collect the bones of the battlefield and go back to reassemble them for me, and they will be used in the future! When the Necromantic King's finger dropped, he turned to the Bone Demon beside him, who nodded in agreement. It's just that his eyes didn't pay attention to the battle on the city wall at the moment, let alone the tens of thousands of players' corpses scattered on the battlefield, but searched for other places in the sky.
The White Bone Demon had always been very strange, because he always felt that after coming to the ground, he should be attacked by a human or other race Sacred Domain powerhouse, but so far he had not even seen a trace of a Sacred Domain powerhouse. Therefore, he had been paying attention to the sky around him, for fear that those Sacred Domain powerhouses were hiding in mid-air and preparing for a sneak attack.
However, after the undead took the three city walls, they did not see a single Sanctuary powerhouse appear, and the only ones who appeared on the city walls from beginning to end were those who were called travelers. Although almost all of these guys are professionals, the difference in strength between them is very large, even if they are travelers of the same level, some of them are much worse than others, and a very few are very strong. Although this strength is limited, it is an indisputable fact that several Minotaur Death Knights were killed in the early stages of the attack on the walls.
But no matter how strong these mighty travelers were, eventually they were either dead or wounded. If it weren't for this, how could these tens of thousands of garbage skeleton soldiers be pushed to the third city wall, although the number of skeleton soldiers was only less than three thousand, but the undead army that had already been prepared behind them had already begun to prepare for action.
Tens of thousands of undead armies slowly charged towards the city walls, and although the most advanced skeletons were still the lowest, the worst of these skeletons had a bronze glow on their bodies. Almost every one of the more than 20,000 strengthened skeleton soldiers has an elite template, and their combat power is equivalent to that of three or four ordinary undead skeleton soldiers.
In addition to these skeletons, a cavalry force of more than 3,000 skeleton cavalry also became part of the attack, of course, they were always cruising in the rear, and did not join the array of attacking the city walls. Behind these elite skeletons. It's three thousand black warriors. As an undead species no worse than the Death Knight, the Black Knight's combat power is far superior to that of ordinary skeletons, as they can use the power of death to strengthen their bodies, making their otherwise inactive muscles more powerful and flexible. In fact, if it weren't for the difference in the armor and mounts on the body, there would not be much difference between the Death Knight and the Black Knight, of course, it was only in appearance, and there was still a slight gap between the two sides in terms of combat effectiveness.
The three thousand black warriors were all summoned under the auspices of the Necromantic King Arthur, and it was a miracle that he relied on the appeal of his Undead King to summon these three thousand black samurai, and if the White Bone Demon presided over the summoning, it is estimated that it is already a miracle that it can summon one-third of them. The three thousand black warriors were no worse than the more than a thousand death knights standing behind them, shrouded in gray death mist, but these death knights were the last straw that broke the camel's back. When they go into battle. It is estimated that there are not many players on the battlefield who will be able to stop them.
The huge undead army slowly moved towards the occupied wall, but the players in the city were not in the mood to pay attention to this scene, because most of their attention was attracted by the undead who were attacking the fourth wall at the moment. Tens of thousands of players have poured in from the follow-up city walls, and they are desperately blocking the path of these minotaur death knights, using crowd tactics to continuously reduce the opponent's health.
Every Minotaur Death Knight never utters a word during a fight, and they replace the shocking sound with silent action, but at least one player who falls on each attack will scream or even lose a life.
"Block him!" "Help me!" "Damn! Don't get out of my way! You fools! "I'm rubbing! Who poked me! A jumble of voices rang out over the walls, along with screams of death.
However, when these players died, the Minotaur Death Knight was killed one by one as they struggled to stop them. Chen Kai looked at the minotaurs who were killed one after another and showed a bitter smile. He didn't know if the souls of these minotaurs had finally dissipated, or if they would continue to be imprisoned in their heads, and the only thing he could do now was to keep pouring healing potions into his mouth, constantly changing the gauze from the wound on his waist, so as not to turn the gauze into a red cloth from oozing blood.
Although Chen Kai's armor defense is very high, the weapons he prepared for those minotaurs are also very sharp. Coupled with the special elemental rune power in the bodies of several minotaur death knights, the attacks they swing are even more terrifying elemental damage. In order to block a minotaur, Chen Kai paid the price of being severely slashed with an axe on his waist, and he could only rely on medicine to keep the wound from deteriorating.
"Is this just shooting yourself in the foot?" Chen Kai looked at the scene in front of him a little helplessly. If he hadn't sent all the elite troops, Drake's black-armored cavalry, Arno's Minotaur troops, and even the tribes to the castle in the south, he might have wiped out all the Minotaur Death Knights on the first wall by now. But even if Chen Kai regrets it now, it is useless. The only thing he could do was grit his teeth and swallow the blood in his stomach, which he had just done. As long as you see his helmet, you can basically understand what kind of swelling Chen Kai's mouth is at this moment. Chen Kai's two big teeth were directly broken under the head hammer of the Minotaur's death, and the other party's horns almost went directly into Chen Kai's jaw. That time was the closest Chen Kai came to death, if it wasn't for Chen Kai blocking it with his arm, maybe he would have fallen to the ground with a big hole in his jaw now.
Of course, that arm block also made Chen Kai pay a lot of price, the arm armor of his right arm was almost pierced, and the helmet part protecting his jaw was also dented by the top, and even his teeth were broken several times, and he almost fainted. Under such circumstances, it is conceivable how heavy Chen Kai's injuries are, so now Chen Kai almost does not dare to take off his helmet, for fear of being seen with his broken face.
Looking at his broken arm armor, Chen Kai's face became a little melancholy, and the medicine in his mouth slowly turned into a trace of heat and integrated into all parts of his body. The health that had been slowly falling slowly stopped at this moment. Seeing that he finally stopped the falling health, Chen Kai threw away the potion that had been consumed in his hand, and slowly staggered to his feet with the giant sword.
The sun in the sky was still shining on the earth, but Chen Kai did not feel a trace of sunlight warmth on his body, on the contrary, the only thing he felt was the cold transmitted from his body. "Ahem!" Coughing lightly twice, Chen Kai coughed out a mouthful of blood with frost from his mouth, due to the exhaustion of the fighting qi in his body, he was unable to disperse the opponent's power after being hit by an attack by a frost-attribute minotaur death knight, this power has been entrenched in his body, making his body tremble as if he was in the cold winter even if he stood in the sun.
When Chen Kai stood up straight, he could see the huge undead army that was slowly moving forward outside the city wall. The army of skeleton warriors, mostly made up of bronze-level undead, looks like a sea of bronze. The army of more than 20,000 undead was extremely neat with every step, and under the control of the Bone Demon, all the skeleton warriors moved forward at the same pace. The trembling bones on their bodies almost clicked in the same sound, which sounded a little terrifying when one or two sounded, but when thousands of bones hit at the same time, it was a continuous piece of horror.
As this continuous clicking sound slowly approached the city wall, all players who did not have a combat mission looked out of the city wall. When the players on the city walls saw the continuous bronze luster, the despair that had been surrounding them became even stronger.
"Is this an overpowering person?" Chen Kai looked helplessly at the huge undead army that was gradually approaching, to be honest, if it was really a comparison of numbers, the player troops gathered in Burkna Town would not lose to the undead troops. There were 130,000 players gathered in the entire town of Burkner, but only about half of these 130,000 players were above the sixth order. The rest are all players around the fifth order. In fact, most of the players who are said to be the fifth order are only one step away from the sixth order. Although the mainstream level of the entire game world has reached the sixth level, and high-end players have even run wild on the road to the seventh order, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to upgrade, which is a common problem in almost all games. Even Aetiyah. Although the experience value of the upgrade does not reach a terrifying level, due to the small amount of experience that monsters of the same level can provide, and the experience provided by the tasks of the same level is also greatly reduced, the player's pace of upgrading is reduced rapidly. In addition, there is no place to farm monsters in the game at all. If low-level monster zone players can also kill a large number of monsters to gain level-up experience, then when the level becomes higher, the price of each monster killed will become extremely large.
Even the most powerful monster farming professional mage in other games can't do a high-power spell to farm a monster of the same level. Even sometimes they can't handle an ordinary monster of the same level when they run out of mana. The requirements for mana points of the seventh-order player mages have become even higher, and most of the player spellcasters have begun to become homely at this point, and spending more time meditating every day to obtain the accumulation of mana has become the most frustrating but forced to do for these high-end player mages.
At the same time, there is also a more terrifying knowledge of spells corresponding to the boring meditation life, so the atmosphere of learning from the top of some high-level players is getting stronger and stronger. Basically, the player mage who has reached this level is either a scholar who specializes in a certain field, or a demon with high intelligence, or a lucky mess who accumulates spell knowledge with a large amount of gold coins and a large number of magic books. There is no doubt that Xu Fei belongs to the last category, although he really wants to rely on himself to be a scholar mage, but he is still a little worse than those demon-level beings. Of course, at least for now, Xu Fei is still labeled as a demon player mage in the eyes of others, after all, several of his spells, such as arcane cannonballs and arcane city breakers, are already spells that must be learned by arcane player mages. Although both the former and the latter are more cheating, the former costs money and the latter is fatal, and almost none of them are more normal, but in any case, the two spells are one of the powerful spells that players can access at this stage.
At this moment, Xu Fei was extremely weakened because of the deadly arcane city cannon before, and after his resurrection, he stood on the city wall with his body shrunk to command the battle, and the sun shining on him could not dispel the cold in his body. When others couldn't stand the heat, he was still wearing a thick blanket and baking the brazier, of course, he was much better than Chen Kai, at least he didn't spit out frosty blood.
"Dick! I just received the news that the residents of the northern city of Kailda have been evacuated. Most of the dwarves chose to leave the town of Burkner for Altinis in the south, with only a few choosing to stay in the southern castle. Zhao Tiezhu's voice was full of helplessness, although Chen Kai and Seram had a good relationship, but there was also Cheng DΓΉ who asked the dwarves to help him guard the city without reservation.
"Ahh ~~ This is also something that has no way to go! Sneeze~~ Hiss! "Xu Fei sneezed and could catch a cold in such weather, even in the game, it was a miracle, but Xu Fei was almost used to this state. Because every time he used the Arcane Piercing Cannon or the City Breaker, he would have this situation, and after a few times in a row, it was about to become his habit.
"I know! But if the dwarves helped, maybe it would be a little better now! Zhao Tiezhu looked at the huge figure on the city wall that gradually stood up, although the distance was a little far, but he knew very well that it was definitely Chen Kai.
"Nope! Even if Seram chooses to stay and help Chen Kai, he will refuse, because this battle will definitely only be lost and not won! Ah sneeze~~" Xu Fei wiped the snot that ran down his nose and looked at the bronze army of undead that was gradually approaching in the distance.
"Will you only lose and won't win?" Zhao Tiezhu clenched the shield in his hand hard, and when he looked at the tens of thousands of undead, a feeling of powerlessness continued to spread on his body.
"Yes! It is only possible to lose. And it's still sure to lose! Therefore, Chen Kai will definitely not let Seram join this battle, and Seram also knows that he will naturally not come. Xu Fei pulled the blanket on his body hard, bringing himself closer to the brazier.
"Is this really the only result?" Zhao Tiezhu was a little unwilling, because he really didn't want to see this city that belonged to them turn into ruins.
"Unless the prime minister sends a legendary-level powerhouse, is this possible? The battle has been going on for more than half an hour, not to mention the legend, not even the shadow of a Sacred Domain powerhouse has appeared, what does this mean? We're just outcasts! Sneeze!! ~~" A loud sneeze directly caused the brazier in front of Xu Fei to splash around, and at the same time, the angry fire in Zhao Tiezhu's heart was swaying.
"What is there to be angry about. Anyway, we're just playing games, and as long as we don't lose our money, we can get back what we lost one day! Ah sneeze~~" Xu Fei looked at Zhao Tiezhu's face and said with a smile, then raised his head and looked at Chen Kai, who was raising a giant sword in the distance to slash an undead spirit, "I think Chen Kai thinks the same way." So he evacuated all the natives from the city, and even Drake and Arno forcibly transferred them. β
"So what do we do now?" Zhao Tiezhu slowly sat next to Xu Fei, he looked at the player swordsman group waiting quietly around him, and the players wearing light armor and holding the dwarven magic sword were trying to wipe the long sword in their hands. Always ready to jump into the battle ahead. They are the most powerful player unit in Burkner Town, and they are also the only troops that Chen Kai and the others remain in the city that belong to the Town Guard sequence. A group of 5,000 swordsmen are all green and high-level magic light armor, as well as magic swords forged by dwarves. This configuration is definitely the top combat infantry team in the player's guild. At the same time, as long as there is a need, they can ride their horses and become cavalry at any time, but it is impossible to become knights.
A force composed of 5,000 swordsmen with a minimum level of 61 will be put into battle at the most critical moment of the battle, but Xu Fei feels that their greatest function is to deter those hidden speculators in the city. Because of the existence of these swordsman regiments, there are no players who take the opportunity to make trouble in the current Burkner Town, and once they are also involved in the battle, Xu Fei will have to worry about whether the Lord's Mansion will be attacked by those bad players.
Nearly a thousand members of the Player Swordsman Regiment were stationed around the Lord's Mansion, and several players who had passed the seventh order, including Su Xinghe of the Blood Sea Peak, were stationed there, just to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to cause trouble when the undead attacked the city. Don't think that all players will be noble, if Chen Kai and they don't have enough strength to protect the Lord's Mansion, it will be some unscrupulous players who don't want to loot the wealth in Burkner Town first.
However, if the players on the city wall knew that there was not even a dime in the treasury of Burkner Town, it was estimated that they would strike first and give up the defense directly, because their mission bounty still required Chen Kai, the lord, to take the money in the treasury to put it.
