Chapter 206: Heading to Red Flame City
Unlike previous games, all Residency Battles erupt based on the final decision of the player and the NPC.
In other words, instead of the past when the system opened the city battle model players only decided how to fight, it has become now that even whether to fight, when to fight, and how to fight have to be decided by the players themselves, so it can be said that the player's subjective initiative is stronger in a certain course.
And in addition to these related to the player's decision, the NPC of the city lord of each city actually plays a decisive key role!
If we are playing RPG role-playing, then the battle between several city lords is obviously SLG, which is what we usually call a war strategy game.
Each of them has a relatively balanced amount of resources at their disposal, including the number of soldiers in the NPC, their strength, and a roughly equal player base. How to effectively integrate these resources and use them to attack and plunder the city within a relatively closed main city is the main thing these city lords have to do.
Compared with RPGs, SLGs are more a test of the overall situation and decisiveness of the commander.
An excellent commander is always surrounded by some excellent talents......
As for the city lord fat man...... Forget it, he has more friends in bed, and the time in bed is obviously far more than his office hours.
After taking the letter from the city lord fat man, I resolutely flew to the Valley of Thorns on a griffin, and then crossed the Moredo Forest connecting Silvermoon City and Red Flame City from the hilly area on the south side of the Thorn Valley, and officially stepped into the territory of Red Flame City.
The level of monsters in the area connecting the two secondary main cities is relatively high, so these places usually become the main battleground between players in the two secondary main cities to compete for the training ground, such as this Moredo Forest.
This is a large gourd-shaped forest running east-west, and there is no obvious boundary to divide where is the boundary of Silvermoon City, and where is Chiyan City. There are large forests on both sides, which appear to be very dense, and the monsters in the forest are quite high-level. Only the gourd-shaped waist in the middle has a relatively narrow passage, known as the Fraser Corridor, and generally players who want to enter Silver Moon City or Red Flame City will choose to pay a certain toll from here to pass guò.
Here again, I saw the means of Tianji rolling money, and even charging money for crossing the city map, which is really compared with the x-news of a hundred years ago.
However, when the player enters the forest from the hills south of the Valley of Thorns, it is nothing more than a change in the name of the map, but it does not show Silvermoon City or Red Flame City, it should be a public area, no one has sovereignty, and it has become a revenue generating point for public fees.
After paying the toll of 100 gold, I couldn't help but curse: Don't say that people don't come to attack Silvermoon City, I can't stand this toll alone!
Of course, you can also choose to stow away, that is, cross the forest from the side.
Because I'm coming along the main road, I don't know what the level of the monsters in the nearby forest is, but since I dare to block the road and charge, the level of the monsters in the forest must be high, otherwise who will spend this unjust money?
After rushing for nearly an hour, I finally arrived at this secondary main city located in the northern oasis of the Southern Chiyan Desert - Chiyan City!
If the Silver Moon City has a bit of the style of medieval European castle station, then the Red Flame City is the concentrated embodiment of the desert culture of the Arab world in Central Asia.
The buildings here are not high, the highest is the second floor, and they all use the kind of sand walls made of mud and sand, and you can still see the traces of time friction from the flat roof of the building. All kinds of colorful curtains are supported by bamboo poles along the street, and under the curtains are all kinds of objects sold by the NPCs, and there are vaguely a few shirtless child NPCs frolicking and shuttling between the crowd.
Similar to Silvermoon City, Chiyan City also has four squares that look empty, and the City Lord's Mansion of Chiyan City is also in the middle of the entire Chiyan City, the only difference is that Chiyan City is almost built on the desert, so it is not like the City Lord's Mansion of Silvermoon City, and there is a moat in the city that surrounds it.
When you arrive in Chiyan City, you will feel as if you have arrived in another country, and this exotic atmosphere can't help but make people's eyes shine.
I hurried to the City Lord's Mansion, but I didn't let in, although my reputation in Silver Moon City was very high, and ordinary city guards had to salute when they saw me, but in Chiyan City, there was only "indifference".
And the sturdy soldier didn't give me any chance to say good things and drove me out, how can I say that I am also a baron anyway, and I actually ate a closed door like this.
This is too shameless!
It seems that the prestige parameter can only be of little use in the corresponding secondary main city, and after leaving Silvermoon City, others will not recognize your prestige at all, unless you also complete some influential tasks in other secondary main cities.
I can't help it, I can't break in.
Still have to find the Oniyasha.
"Boss? What's up? ”
"Didn't you leave some people in Chiyan City? What's going on with the City Lord's Mansion in Chiyan City? Why don't you even let in? ”
"Boss, have you arrived in Chiyan City?" The little ghost said in surprise.
"That's not the point! The point is, how did Chiyan City make it seem like the whole city was under martial law? I couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Boss, the timing of your visit is unfortunate! The city lord of Chiyan City had just been attacked by a sneak attack, and now he must be hiding in the mansion and not daring to come out! Oniyasha said with a glow.
"Sneak attack? Who is so bold? Dare to sneak attack the city lord of Chiyan City? "I said a little speechlessly, people are city lords, and the level of the guards around them is not low.
"It's also the news I just got, and it's being investigated! However, the lord of the castle was attacked by a group of masked thieves of unknown origin on the way back from Fort Prince, and although he was not injured, he was frightened, so he will definitely not see you now! Oniyasha said in a conclusive voice.
Forget it, let's go to Fort Prince, and if the relationship between the owner of the fortress and the lord of the castle is good enough, maybe he can help introduce him.
After making up my mind, I walked around Chiyan City and prepared to leave the city, and at this time, there was a scattered team near the south gate shouting: "Production Department Princesburg promotion, find a high-defense knight, physical defense 1000+ come!" ”
They were already calling when I came before, and now I've come back from a good walk around the city, and they're still calling at the door, I don't know if it's because there aren't many people with 1000+ defenses or if they're not popular enough.
I'm going to Princeburg anyway, so I'll just drop by and escort them there.
So I volunteered to join the team.
"Pastor? New here, why don't you show the ID? How much do you have defenses? We're looking for a high-defense knight, not a priest. ”
