There are more and more people on the city wall, crowded together like pancakes on the earthen stove, and our Tianxuan group only occupies a mere 6 squares. Zhang Wei, Wang Jinhai and I On the front line, Lin Che, Su Xiran, and Xu Jiacheng followed, maintaining the division of labor between close combat and long-range combat.
The corridor along the wall was overcrowded, but there were still people walking up. In the distance, several familiar figures struggled to climb up the city wall. They were Liu Qiang, Wang Xi, Wang Qian, Zhang Liang and others from the dynasty hegemony, but there was no room for them anymore. So much so that someone in the direction they were squeezing in protested: "There are already people here, we took a good position yesterday!"
Liu Qiang raised his eyebrows: "One position costs 2000G, trade and leave."
The group of people suddenly became excited, and they accepted the money in despair and gave up their positions. This perfectly explained what it means that if you have money, you can do whatever you want, but... the long-range players of Dynasty Hegemony are average in strength and may not be able to survive here.
More figures appeared on the city wall one after another. Members of Chibai Divine Realm, Tangmen, Hall of Heroes, Just Don't Accept, Wuzheng, Xiaoyao Pavilion and other guilds all appeared. It can be said that most of the people gathered on the city wall near the north. For the elite players of Julu City, if the defense here collapses, then this version of the mission will basically be considered a failure.
Time passed bit by bit, and the crowd surged. The crowd behind Su Xiran and Xu Jiacheng kept squeezing forward, so that the two beauties and several players were shoulder to shoulder. One of the swordsmen said to Xu Jiacheng: " Pretty little Nuomi, can I have your WeChat account?"
Xu Jiacheng's face turned pale. He had never seen such a battle since he came to Julu City.
I turned around quickly, and suddenly the amethyst ice shield fell to the ground. I protected Xu Jiacheng in the shield, raised my brows, and said to the swordsman: "Get away, or I will throw you off the city wall."
"Tonight or later, you..."
The swordsman's expression suddenly changed, but he seemed to be really worried that I would throw him off the fortress. The walls of the Mianhe Fortress were ten meters high, and falling was no joke. He subconsciously backed away and used all his strength. Under pressure, he retreated a yard abruptly, leaving a small space between him and Xu Jiacheng.
I glanced over, and the two players who were close to Su Xiran immediately backed away. As for Lin Che, he grinned: "Don't worry about me, it's quite comfortable for everyone to squeeze in together."
Beside him, two male archers smiled.
Su Xiran smiled and said, "Captain D, thank you."
Xu Jiacheng also blushed, looked at me and said, "Boss, I really feel safe around you."
I sighed: "Protect yourself carefully."
"Uh-huh."
Soon after, a countdown appeared on the upper right side of the interface. It was one hour and thirty minutes before the war started. The entire interface turned slightly red, indicating that a war was about to come to this human race's frontier fortress. It can be said that the Mianhe Fortress was A must-fight place to the north of Julu City is the northern gateway of Julu City. Once it is lost, the entire northern territory of Julu City will be exposed to the claws of the Purgatory Legion.
Time passed bit by bit, and when there was only one hour left in the countdown, there was movement in the crystal forest in the distance. The jungle was shaking, and columns of iron cavalry rushed out of the jungle. They were the men and horses of the Longxiang Cavalry Regiment. , their armors and swords were all stained with blood. They had obviously gone through a fierce battle and seemed to have been defeated. People and horses were coming from behind in an endless stream.
"brush… "
A beautiful figure emerged from the jungle riding a white horse, holding a blood-stained sword in her hand. It was Luo Qingyi, the lord of Julu City. Her silver armor had turned red, and the cloak behind her was burned into half, and even Even the armor showed signs of being melted. I really don't know what kind of terrifying existence could beat her into this state.
When Sura and a group of Bronze Cavalry NPCs appeared behind Luo Qingyi, I was relieved. Fortunately, my "department" was still there. It seemed that this version change did not affect Sura. good.
"Cross the bridge."
Luo Qingyi gave an order, and all the cavalry flew from the pontoon bridge and returned to the Mianhe Fortress. They didn't even need the food and baggage behind them. The artillery was blown up one after another, and the men and horses of several large cavalry regiments were directly destroyed. After crossing the bridge under the gaze of many players, Luo Qingyi turned around, swept the air with his sword, and his fighting spirit turned into flames, directly burning all the floating bridges.
"Hopefully, we can hold them off for a while and return to Mianhe Fortress."
"Yes, Princess!"
All the cavalry returned to the fortress one after another. The iron gate under the fortress that was not open to players opened, and the NPC cavalry filed in. The part of the city guarded by NPCs was already lined with arrow towers and turrets, and pitch-black cannons were aimed at them. Towards the north, a group of soldiers looked solemn, and each one of them was almost suffocating.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, there are only ten minutes left.
"coming soon."
Su Xiran looked into the distance with her beautiful eyes and smiled leisurely.
I held the shield, stood in front of her, and said, "Be careful. Just command the golden rat to throw magic. You don't have to do it yourself. We don't know how strong the monster is yet."
"I got it!"
At this moment, the sound of war drums came from the distance, stirring up the crystal forest and causing thousands of birds to fly away. A high platform could be faintly seen being slowly built, crushing the jungle, layer by layer. On top of each other, on the high platform, two giant abyss beasts covered in scales and with ferocious looks were waving their powerful arms and drumsticks vigorously, hitting the war drum made of giant beast skin, making a shocking sound. At the same time, one could vaguely see the densely packed figures of the Purgatory Legion in the jungle, and sure enough, they were here.
Ten minutes later, at the moment when the countdown ended, there was a soft "boom" sound, and the countdown on the interface disappeared, replaced by a line of three blood-red words "First Wave", and at the same time, a battle list appeared above it. It was like a curtain drooping down, showing the player's points ranking, but at this time it was all blank, and no one got any points.
In the jungle, a dark army of death was dispatched. It was a group of skeleton soldiers carrying bone swords. Although there was a river in the middle, they rushed over like crazy.
"Can these skeletons know how to swim?" Lin Che said with a smile: "The water in the Jianhe River is so fast, it would be strange if their skeletons were not washed away. Wouldn't this mean death?"
Wang Jinhai narrowed his eyes: "Perhaps he imitated Fu Jian and threw a whip to cut off the flow. Now he throws a skeleton to cut off the flow."
"That's not right..." I groaned.
Xu Jiacheng lay on my shoulder, looking into the distance with his beautiful eyes wide open: "Boss, what's wrong?"
"The water of the Ganghe River has always flowed from west to east, and finally merged into the South China Sea. Why does the river flow now from east to west? It's a bit abnormal." I said.
Su Xiran's beautiful eyes were surprised: "You are observing so carefully..."
"After all, I have swum..."
At this moment, huge waves suddenly surged from the bottom of the river, and then curved bodies rolled out from the bottom of the river. They were giant dragons with only fossil-like skeletons left on their heads. They rolled their bodies , continuously winding, and finally connected together to form a bridge spanning the north and south, like a piece of rotten wood.
About fifty meters away from us, on the highest observation deck of the city, Luo Qingyi frowned and said: "They actually resurrected the bones of the giant dragon at the bottom of the river. How abominable!"
Sura said: "This time, they are really prepared."
The leader of the Longxiang Cavalry Regiment sneered: "Princess, please rest assured, our giant artillery and cavalry regiment will make these beasts who should have returned to dust long ago know how powerful they are!"
"Get ready to fight." Luo Qingyi said softly.
"yes!"
Mu Yu raised his hand and drew out his sword, pointed the sword straight into the distance, and roared: "Catapults, load torch stones, archers, prepare arrows, artillery battalion, prepare to aim and bombard!"
On the high platform in the city, the NPC army was busy. On the archery tower, the archers looked solemn, and they picked up their bows and arrows. The catapults in the city started to light up, preparing to fight. In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire city was solemn and tense.
Coming, densely packed skeleton soldiers came to kill along the bridge formed by more than a dozen giant dragons, raised their bone swords, let out a low roar, and their eyes were filled with murderous intent.
When they were about 50 yards away, the level appeared. A level 66 gold-level monster with pretty good attributes, but it shocked me. The current average level of players in Julu City is level 55. The system actually leveled it up in the first wave. They sent out level 66 monsters, obviously they didn’t intend to make things easier for the players, right
At this time, densely packed players gathered under the city, all of whom could not squeeze into the fortress. They fought one after another and began to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the skeletons. At the same time, streaks of flames flew into the sky, and the torches thrown by the torch stone carts The rolling stone carried flames, blooming into seas of fire among the skeleton soldiers.
Soon after, a dense group of skeletons entered our shooting range.
Xu Jiacheng was the first to spread out the rain of flames, and I also commanded the golden fire blade to spread layer after layer of rain of flames. At the same time, I raised my hand and took out the Demon Hate Bow, and shot down the city wall with one arrow, hitting the remaining skeleton soldiers. Lin Che and Wang Jinhai, both long-range players, were at home like a fish in water. Their explosive spells, scattering and other skills kept falling, smashing the skeletons to pieces.
The first wave of monsters are close combat and cannot get close to the city wall. They are purely for experience.
However, everyone is competing for the ranking of this version of the mission, and no one wants to fall behind. Outside the city fortress, countless players rushed towards the monster group like an ocean, and started fighting with the skeleton soldiers south of the Jianhe River.
I'm too impatient. Once I die, I won't be able to enter the activity area again. I only have one chance. If I'm missed, I'll lose more than I gain.
