"But doesn't giving up here mean giving up the middle lane? At that time, the Spirit Gathering Crystal will also be taken away! One adventurer questioned.

The blue peacock shook his head: "The spirit crystal can't be left to the enemy, go and unload the spirit crystal, and take it to the Frozen Throne together with the power crystal!" ”

Unload? The heroes immediately objected: "The Spirit Gathering Crystal is the source of the soldier's combat effectiveness, and if it is removed, it will be equivalent to weakening the soldiers of the natural disaster, which is basically cutting off our own back road!" ”

"It's better than being taken away by the enemy!" The blue peacock said coldly: "Without the Gathering Spirit Crystal, the soldier's degradation rate is measured in years, but if the crystal is taken away by the enemy, the evolution of the guard soldier can only be completed in a few hours!" What's more, you should all know what will happen if twelve crystals come together! ”

The heroes swallowed their spit, and at that time, there was no need for the Guards heroes to make a move, and the Frozen Throne was about to fall.

Without further ado, all the heroes and adventurers who had just teleported over formed a formation, greeted the base camp and the other two roads, and then unloaded the spirit crystal on the other side, and the group transported these two precious treasures to the Frozen Throne.

Unlike the original game, the Frozen Throne in the World of Defending the Ruins is not in the center of the base camp, but further back in the inner city, on a high hill inside the Fountain of Life. So to reach the Frozen Throne, you have to go through the base camp that stretches for more than ten kilometers and pass through the crowded downtown area. But fortunately, because the soldiers were approaching the city, the non-combatants in the base camp had no heart to operate, and they all chose to take refuge. Either in the basement of your own home, or in a public shelter. Powerful aristocrats even went to the inner city to pray for the protection of the military, so the road was relatively smooth. In addition to the soldiers on the front line, various defensive facilities have also been erected in the streets, and a large number of soldiers are stationed in the streets, as if they are ready to fight in the streets.

Needless to say, after more than two months of hard work, most of the adventurers also have a high rank, so this team escorting crystals is naturally unimpeded all the way, and there is no level at all to dare to intercept and interrogate, and rush to the Frozen Throne as quickly as possible.

Soon, the crystal escort party passed through the layers of guarded perimeters, passed through the places where ordinary citizens lived, and entered the entertainment and commercial district of the middle level, where the buildings were taller and more ornate, and the streets were wider. This is where Persian Cats and others participated in the auction before, and there is also a separate teleportation point here for treasure hunters and soldiers to teleport at any time. Usually, when adventurers talk about returning to the base camp, they basically mean coming here through the guò teleportation scroll. Although the civilian area on the outskirts covers a vast area, there is no information or treasure worth excavating, and it is completely worthless. Moreover, the buildings inside are cluttered, the roads are narrow, and it is easy to get lost when you twist around, so in the later stage, relatively wealthy adventurers will not choose to skip a teleportation scroll to walk through the civilian area.

However, at this time, it is precisely because of the complex terrain that the civilian area has become the most suitable place for street fighting. The middle floors, with their smooth and wide streets, were largely abandoned because it was difficult to deploy troops, with only a small number of soldiers patrolling or erecting some fortifications on the tops of some tall enough buildings, with the aim of delaying the enemy. In other words, once the enemy passes through the civilian area, it means that the personnel of the inner city will immediately retreat to the mountains and make a final resistance at the foot of the frozen throne.

The group flew like a fly, and in a blink of an eye, they came to the most prosperous part of the business district, that is, the place where the auction was held before, on the bustling commercial street where the Throne Theater was located.

"After here, it's the Craftsman's Street, not far from the inner city!" The Soul Guard at the head said. He is the twin brother of the Guard's heroic Anti-Mage. Both brothers were born blind, but this gave them an inherently unusual sense of magic. However, the difference is that the anti-mage obeys the order and gains exquisite skills through training and suffering, while the soul guard is willing to fall and sell his soul in exchange for great power. Therefore, although they are brothers, they are different from the simple and neat appearance of the anti-mage, and the soul guard has a pair of exaggerated curved horns on the top of his head, and a pair of fleshy wings on his back.

Seeing the familiar Throne Theater, a group of heroes and adventurers breathed a sigh of relief, with their foot strength, they could reach the Frozen Throne in a few dozen minutes at most!

But at this moment, there were two pops, and the heads of the two adventurers who were in charge of carrying the spirit crystal suddenly exploded together, and the spirit crystal also fell to the ground with a clatter. At the same time, several adventurers who were close to the Spirit Gathering Crystal also fell to the ground, or were hit by an arrow in their foreheads, or their heads were separated from their bodies, or their hearts were pierced by powerful lasers from their bodies, in short, in just an instant, seven or eight people fell to the ground and died!

There is an ambush!

Everyone reacted immediately, looked for cover nearby, and looked at the Throne Theater not far away!

Just flying blades, bows, arrows, bullets, lasers, lasers, all shot from there! Although it is enough to catch the trajectory of a bullet with the dynamic vision of a hero, where can it react in such an unprepared situation? What's more, when their team is marching, the people who are responsible for carrying the crystals in shifts in the middle are all adventurers who are not very strong in combat, and the enemy just picks them to snipe, how can there be no reason?

"Damn, how did they get to the rear? Could it be that the upper and lower roads have fallen? A Miracle City adventurer guessed.

"No way, never so fast!" Another retorted: "There are still a large number of heroes and regular troops on the upper and lower roads, no matter how bad they are, they can support them for a few hours, it is impossible to fall so quickly, these guys must have sneaked in!" ”

"It doesn't matter how they got here, I'm going to let them come back today!" The Soul Guardian smirked and slammed out of cover towards the Grand Theatre of the Throne!

The heroes of the other bunkers saw it, except for the Death Prophet and the Forgotten Mage, who were good at long-range support, they also rushed out, and many adventurers who were more confident in their own strength also followed, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of them rushed out of the bunker and charged towards the Grand Theater of the Throne.

And the rest, most of them are the back row that is good at long-range attacks, and while they are supporting fire, they are trying to drag back the two crystals that fell on the side of the road.

The heroes were prepared, and the enemy's accuracy in the Grand Theater of the Throne was also poor, and under the cover of the rear long-range, the scourge side led by the soul guards and ghouls rushed to a place less than a hundred meters away from the Grand Theater in the blink of an eye!

But at this moment, a small zombie appeared out of thin air behind all the approaching natural disasters, howling and attacking them!

"What is this?" The Soul Guard was greatly surprised, he was very familiar with the shape of these little zombies, this is the skill tombstone of the Immortal Corpse King, as long as the tombstone is erected, it will summon a small zombie to attack within a radius of hundreds of meters nearby, behind every creature that has not been infected by the breath of the natural disaster! But the Immortal Corpse King is a hero of the Scourge, and he has been sacrificed in the last battle, why does his skill appear here, and the attack is still from the Scourge?

The heroes don't understand, but the adventurers can figure out the joints at once! The Immortal King was killed, and the mark of this skill was burst out, and it was learned by one of the enemy adventurers! And this adventurer sneaks up here, summoning a tombstone at a critical moment!

Of course, it's nothing just a tombstone, and the most important thing is that the tombstone of the Immortal Corpse King is one of the few objects that has the function of a teleportation marker, in other words, setting up a tombstone here is equivalent to setting up a teleportation point here for the Guards! This would explain why there are so many guards here!

But now there is no point in exploring the principle of this, and combat is the only option! The Cataclysm side relied on extraordinary speed to shake off the zombies and rushed directly into the Grand Theater.

Sure enough, on the stage in the theater hall, a huge obelisk was standing, and the base was so heavy that the stage collapsed.

That's right, it's the tombstone of the Immortal Corpse King, and when I look up, on the second floor of the Grand Theater, there are several Guard heroes standing!

As soon as he entered the door, a billowing black aura appeared from the soul guard's body, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a tall pitch-black demon, and the other heroes and adventurers also showed their abilities and rushed towards the enemy in unison!

Fierce fighting was heard in the Grand Theater, and the long-range attacks from the outside died down. Seeing this, the natural disasters behind the bunkers also planned to approach one by one to support.

But at this moment, the Death Prophet floating in mid-air suddenly let out a violent mental fluctuation, infecting the nearby companions, and when everyone turned to look at her, they found that a huge blood hole had burst out of the chest of this powerful legal hero (harmony), and the front and back were cold. And there was a miserable wound on her neck, in which you could see the dry trachea, arteries, and gray cervical vertebrae......

Received such a fatal wound that Rao was a powerful hero who could not bear it and lost his ability to move. The adventurers planned to save her with healing potions, but ordinary healing methods had little effect on the undead, and this necromantic hero was abolished before he could even release his tricks, and death was only a matter of time......

The people who stayed behind suddenly felt a chill surging in their hearts, what was going on, who attacked her? Is there an enemy in the vicinity? But she was wounded by a knife, what about the person who used the knife? Incognito? The stealth hero of the guards? Treant Guard? No, there are no trees around here!

Just when everyone was puzzled, a plop came into everyone's ears, and when they looked back, they saw that standing at the back, an adventurer in the blind corner of everyone's vision had fallen to the ground, a terrible wound extended from his lower abdomen to his chin, the sternal ribs were broken, the internal organs were ruptured and flowed out, and the trachea and arteries were also severed. Any place on ordinary people is a fatal injury, and when put together, this adventurer has completely lost his ability to move, but with his extraordinary vitality, he can't die for the time being, and he can survive for a while!
