692. Raiders of the Lost Ark
Murphy, who returned to the battlefield, immediately chose to send a choice task to his young players after the level of psionic interference in the Black Flame Pass was reduced.
Although the name of the mission is Choice, a closer look at the content of the mission shows that Murphy didn't want the players to escape at all.
The cooperation of the Gnoll and Twilight is about to overturn the Black Flame Pass, and if they don't leave them some "farewell gifts", let alone Murphy, even Lord Heather will not be reconciled.
In this scenario, a large astral rift covering the entire mountain pass becomes optional.
And what made Murphy feel relieved was that Lao Qin and Happy Stick actually comprehended the essence of such an "explosive ending" without a teacher, and it seems that it is really the same as the hero. Of course, this is also another manifestation of the ferocity and madness of the barbarians of Transansia.
If you set off Lao Tzu's position, everyone will stop playing!
It's time to flip the table!
Of course, Murphy consulted with his best girlfriend before playing the Astral Tear card at this last moment.
Trissy's advice to him is to increase the power of the Astral Tear as much as possible, so that not only can it effectively kill the Claw Splitter, but also cause the same aftermath in the Black Flame Pass as the Cadman City disaster.
Even the unscrupulous gnolls will not be able to rush towards an area covered in filthy psionic energy, and the armies of the Splitterclaw Clan will be held back on the outskirts of the mountain pass until the "environmental pollution" caused by the astral tear dissipates.
In this way, not only can you avenge the fall of the Black Flame Pass, but also buy a little more time for the second-tier defense line in the Shadow Valley, and in Cadman City's experience, this "truce period" will be at least a week and half a month at most.
Such a two-pronged choice is a fitting one.
However, Murphy's mission didn't hide the danger of this thing, and the two Serenade Enchantment Core Crystals lost in Position 3 were at the feet of tens of thousands of armed kobolds, pesky nezumi, and wandering gnolls, and an expedition of five hundred people wanted to bring them out, which was an almost impossible task.
sacrifice
This is just the basic condition that players need to pay for the execution of this strategy.
"Maybe I should give them a little help?"
Murphy, who was assisting Lord Heather's army in its retreat to the rear, thought for a moment, and he summoned Adele and asked:
"How many bombs are there in the Valley of the Shadows?"
"Twenty-four, master."
Adele immediately replied:
"It's not enough to cover a position, but with the current strength and morale of Position 8, we don't need it. The Great Evacuation has begun, and perhaps it can be used to stop the enemy forces at the last moment? β
"No, they have a better use."
Murphy sensed the location of the 500 players who had accepted the Choice Mission and were heading towards the ruins of Position 3 through the Core Orb, saying:
"You personally lead a team of elite vampires with bombs on their backs to the vicinity of Position Three, where a group of players is active, and if they can find the lost crystal core, then use the bombs to cover their evacuation.
If they can't find it and die there, take the bombs to Fort Courage, and I'll arrange for everything to pass here.
We'll be there to launch a final counterattack against the Splittal Clan. β
"Huh? You mean, Astral Rip? β
Adele is worthy of being Murphy's former heir, and at once she guessed the thoughts of His Excellency the Governor.
Murphy nodded and didn't elaborate, but the intelligence officer no longer needed a mission description. She sprang into action, and within minutes, a team of elite vampires flew into the nighttime sky.
This is the last support Murphy can give to players who are still operating in the ruins of the front line, and he still has important things to complete in the rear position.
Now that the story of the Black Flame Pass has come to an end, it's time for the Transansians to step onto the stage of the Black Plague and play the role of an aggressive and murderous "savior".
On the other side, on the ruins of the first triple position, Brother Woo Meow, who was leading people to "sneak", saw a hint popping up by an expert adventure assistant.
He blinked, and said in the newly reconstituted team newsletter:
"Master Murphy has sent us supporters, brothers, and as soon as we find the Barrier Stone, there will be vampire air forces dropping bombs to support our evacuation. Lao Bang and Qin Ye marked the location of the nezumi pit that led to Fort Courage for us, and now the rest is very simple.
We rush over, find the crystal, and retreat! β
"If only it were as simple as you say."
One of the "Zodiac" brothers, "Shen Monkey" and "Hu Dog", each of whom wears a steel helmet, follows the old player and takes advantage of the cover of night and ruins to find ahead, and the armed kobolds roaming around him bring a lot of pressure.
These guys aren't tough to deal with even for budding newcomers, but numbers are a terrible problem.
Once the alarm is followed, there will inevitably be a terrible wave of bitter battles.
But it's not without good news.
"Brother Meow, look at those rat people. They seem to be retreating! He also brought a lot of things seized from the position and withdrew, like a group of robbers who had successfully robbed some of them. β
Jie Chong carried two knives and lay on the broken stone next to Brother Wu Meow, pinching a telescope to look left and right, he whispered:
"It's clear that the jackals and kobolds are still attacking, these guys are about to slip away, I don't think they should have the same heart."
"It's a partnership, right?"
On the other side, Brother Woo Meow, who had already set up the gun, had a grass in his mouth, in order to imitate those super snipers, and he whispered:
"There is no such outrageous thing as a nezumi in the battle sequence of the gnolls, and when we fought the nezumi before, didn't some of the brothers find some in-game text? It is said that the rat people are creatures created by a cult organization, and this wave is of an assist nature.
Now that the gnolls have taken their position, the nezumi are definitely going to run. β
"Well, cultists and gnolls are not of the same mind."
Brother Meow said while smearing his dwarven butcher's battle axe with the toxin of righteousness:
"Maybe the cultists want more, after all, the Black Plague is not just this line, hehe, if you want me to say, those brass dwarf fortresses are probably going to be gnawed by the rats this time.
This thing digging a hole in the ground can't be detected by the Earth Priests, it's a goddamn trick of the Tenk Dwarves.
They can dig down the Black Flame Pass, just as they can dig into the Brass Fortress, tsk, this Black Plague seems to have been played, I guess after we have retreated the gnolls in Transasia, the next battlefield will be transferred to the Genoese Peninsula and the Brass Fortress.
Look, the development team has hidden all these details in the mission route for us."
"Old watch, I've found the Barrier Stone!"
The Assassin's communication interrupted Brother Meow's speculation, and Little Hand whispered:
"There's one in the third pit directly in front of you, about 700 meters in a straight line, and a group of kobolds are digging up this thing and shipping it out under the command of the gnolls. The leader is a silver gnoll psychic, and the monsters around him are all elites, and they don't look easy to deal with. β
"What about the other one?"
Brother Meow shook the handle of the weapon, he took out the bloodwood tree seed and asked, and the little hand replied after a few seconds:
"Sister Pomegranate, the stalker of the Silver Moon Regiment, has already found another one, the girls have already started fighting, they are relatively close to the evacuation tunnel, so we don't need to worry. I'm ready to throw paralyzing gas bombs, you guys are ready to rush!
Remember to call for support after getting the crystal, otherwise we won't be able to rush out, there are too many kobolds around. β
"Hmm."
Brother Meow nodded, sharing the location of the crystal core with the people behind him.
He looked at the eager newcomers and sighed in his heart.
I'm sorry, brothers, it's really not my brother, I'm bad-hearted, but in this situation, if we want to transport the crystal smoothly, it is definitely impossible for the undead to be undead.
Your trademark self-detonation tactic will probably come in handy again in a moment.
But in fact, there is no need for him to deliberately emphasize that the newcomers are not stupid, and everyone has already realized when they take on this decision-making task, and many of the newcomers are strapped to explosives, and it is self-evident what they want to do.
"We'll rush first, and you follow."
Brother Meow touched something in his arms and said to the others:
"Don't mess up the formation, the goal is crystal! That thing is the number one priority, and whoever gets it must immediately take it out of the battlefield, and don't fall in love with it. β
"Got it, got it! Rush it, rush it. β
The restless young medieval evangelion had already grabbed his weapon, but the experienced meow shook his head and said:
"Take out all the most valuable things you have and put them in a few psionic bags, and either hide them and mark them, or give them to me, so that you don't suffer any further losses.
It's a chaotic area!
It's okay to suffer a loss once, this is a mess, and if the equipment explodes, it will be difficult to get it back. β
This reminder comes quite timely.
This group of budding newcomers had just gone to explore the treasure, and basically everyone had one or two good things on them, so they immediately took action and regrouped after a few minutes.
"Good! Rush with me! β
Brother Meow stood up, scattered a handful of bloodwood seeds, and rushed out with the dwarven butcher's battle axe, slashing the kobold in front of him with a knife in his hand, and everyone behind him also screamed and followed, like a sharp sword stabbing forward.
This movement was immediately noticed by the group of claw-splitting gnolls who were digging out the core crystal of Serenade, and they did not panic, and while blowing their horns to ask for reinforcements, several brute soldiers with armed kobolds pounced to stop the Translancian commando of more than 200 people.
But Brother Meow took something out of his arms during the charge, put it to his mouth and kissed it gently, and shouted, "The miracle of Avalon has befallen here!" "I threw it out.
It's like PokΓ©mon Master throwing out the Master Ball, it's a seed the size of a baby's fist, originally crumpled and dehydrated, but after Brother Meow took it and fought wildly in the Black Flame Pass so far, this thing has sucked enough enemy blood, and its seed shell has become scarlet and translucent.
It's like an "egg" about to hatch.
As for what it can hatch.
"Whew!"
The seed landed right at the feet of a gnolloll brute, who didn't care to continue charging.
But in the next second, in the trampling and roaring sound of the earth shaking the mountains, the scarlet seed quickly sprouted and swelled and grew, and finally turned into a five-meter-tall terrifying beast in the triumphant laughter of Brother Meow.
Not life!
Rather, it was a plant, with a body of tough branches, a skin of nimble vines, and a tail of clawed scarlet trunks and vampire vines.
It resembles a plant-made elephant, but with black deadwood tusks, and a rhinoceros-like head with two excessively large spiky horns and a single green and red eye.
There is no peace and tranquility that Avalon should have, but a desire for destruction and destruction.
The moment it appeared, it raised its front hooves and trampled downward, tearing through the rocks with ease, trampling the jackal to death was even more light-hearted, and the most terrifying thing was that the front chest of this thing was a man-eating giant flower with a large mouth open.
This means that it eats meat!
"Blanch! Woo Meow, what did you summon? β
The newcomers who rushed with Brother Woo Meow were frightened, and Tata Kai, who was holding a halberd, was even more stumbling.
The young man was really taken aback.
"War Thorn Beast! The Red Knight's mount and war partner, the ferocious beast of Avalon! Destroyer of trees born of wild nature. Lao Tzu spent all his savings to buy it, and it took countless battles to conceive it.
Tonight is the day of the roar of my thorn beast! β
Brother Meow whistled, and the ferocious thorn beast that was "raised" by him immediately lowered its body and began to charge, rampage all the way to Brother Meow's side, and then extended vines and turned into stairs, inviting his knight to step on his back and complete the "battlefield coronation" of the Red Knight of War.
"Brothers! Rush with me! β
Brother Meow, who was standing behind the thorn beast, held his battle axe high, and in the wild cheers of the newcomers and the low and terrifying roar of the thorn beast, the jackals who were originally full of confidence also panicked.
They've already won!
But why do these damn Transansians always do all this weird thing!
On the other side, the girls of the Silver Moon Regiment and the new ones they led did not do a ruthless job, but their evacuation was much smoother than that of Brother Woo Meow.
The largest Huozi brother carried the one-person-tall core crystal behind him and ran towards the marked nezumi pit for his life.
Xiao Weiming, Sister Pomegranate and Orchid are beside him, and the sprouts in the rear are blocking the kobolds who are chasing over, and there are already sprouts who have begun to blow themselves up and kill the enemy, and the battle of the water lady who got the magic weapon is out of the limelight.
Every time the emerald green wind in his hand opens the bow, it will trigger a blue-green purification fire at the landing point, and this war bow does not need arrows, only need to open the bow, and the arrows of the forest trees will be naturally born on the bow body, so that the water lady has no ammunition constraints, and it is like a human-shaped turret constantly harvesting in place.
"Bombs are falling! Withdraw quickly! β
Xiao Wei Ming shouted in the team framework, but the newcomers were dragged by the kobolds, the opponent's numerical advantage was too great and had already completed the encirclement, seeing that he really couldn't rush out, Meng Xinyu Xiaohe wiped the blood on his face, turned around and shouted:
"Leave us alone! Take the crystals with you! Let the vampires smash the bomb down on our location! There are so many enemies here, they can give us a lot of honor points. β
"! You're crazy! This situation can obviously be saved."
"Save Mao, I'm going to die anyway! Is there a difference between dying by self-explosion or being killed by a bomb? And in reality, can you be killed by a bomb? I'm telling you, that's unlocking new life achievements.
In the future, there will be material for going out and bragging. β
"Damn, I can't refute what you say!"
Amid the characteristic chirping and noisy shouts of the newcomers, the vampires led by Lady Adele have begun to dive, and in a few seconds a bomb with a sharp whistle has fallen from the sky.
Under the gaze of the members of the Silver Moon Regiment, who had retreated into the tunnel, in the piercing scream of the sharp hell swoop, the flames of fire engulfed everything there.
Surrounded by a horde of ferocious kobolds, the newcomers didn't care about the flames around them, they smirked and drew their weapons on the flame-lit battlefield, slaying at the terrified foe to pull another cushion before they died.
Isn't it death?
The man has died a lot, and he has long been afraid, but it seems that you are very scared Hehe, don't run, let the buddy introduce you to my good friend of death.
Yu Xiaohe, who was quite literary and artistic, raised his head in the shouts of the newcomers crying wolf, he looked at the hellish swooping bomb that fell above his head, grinned, brushed his hair quite chicly, and then closed his eyes.
He opened his arms in this land where fire and death were intertwined, as if he were hugging his Nth offline.
"This ghost game, how many times has Lao Tzu died since he came in? But what a fucking top! β
He said so.
In the next second, the bomb smashed behind him with a trailing sound.
A terrifying fire rose and swallowed the new man in the pose of a cross and everything that was noisy around him into the eternal silence.
"The crystal is in hand, withdraw!"
Brother Meow's voice sounded from the arithmetic orb with some distortion, and Mrs. Shui put the war bow behind her back, and glanced back at the sparse crowd in the tunnel, she asked:
"I only have seventy people left, what about you?"
"I'm better here, there are more than one hundred and fifty, and half of the brothers who died are blanched for these two crystals! This account is to be counted on the heads of the jackals, and this wave will definitely give them a good look! β
