Chapter 262: The war breaks out (1/3)

"Is this our next battle plan?" Zhang Qi couldn't help but think deeply as he looked at the tactical route handed over by Cui Lu, and then looked at the plain in front of Falling Star Lake under the hills.

"Well, everyone has made up their mind. No matter what, we must break into the town directly before tomorrow." Cui Lu said to Zhang Qi. At this time, Fang Xiyue finally arrived at the battlefield and watched together. Picture drawn by Cui Lu.

"Such a level 6 or level 4 player is so fierce that he can directly overturn other people's plans and make everyone implement new plans according to his will." Zhang Qi complained as he looked at the tactical road map that gave him a headache.

"The main reason is that this battle plan is reasonable enough." Zhang Qi's girlfriend, Pastor Feng Ge, said.

After hearing this, everyone was silent.

In fact, they have also made suggestions in the plan.

It's just that the entire resistance alliance is full of talk, and many times they may not be able to follow their own will.

"After all, you still have to have a high level." Zhang Qi said enviously, "With a high level, others will listen to what you say, whether it makes sense or not."

Half a quarter of an hour later, the charge horn suddenly sounded from the temporary base camp built behind them.

Suddenly, countless Winter City players gathered on the hills to be on guard, all looked serious, knowing that today's battle plan was about to begin.

Zhang Qi held the two-handed giant sword in his hand, adjusted his repaired armor, looked at the thirty players of different professions behind him who had regrouped according to the battle plan, and shouted: "Let's go!"

At this time, Falling Star Town also noticed that the players had launched an attack again, and they also lit the beacon fire and continued to pass on the signal.

Since the onset of winter at noon yesterday, heavy snow has continued to fall in the Falling Star Lake area, covering the ground with a white "snow blanket."

In addition to everyone feeling the coldness of the snow as they moved forward, it also slowed down everyone's marching speed.

In contrast, Falling Star Town's unique "Heavy Armored Cavalry Company" could only be transformed into heavy armored infantry due to the heavy snow.

Looking from the sky, on the entire plain in front of Falling Star Lake, squads of players dispersed in formations, launching an offensive to surround the entire Falling Star Lake.

Most of the players in the army advancing forward are advancing according to the plan.

As if anticipating the empty battlefield today, the plan arranged for rogues with high search levels to hang far in front of the team, searching for any secretly laid traps under the snow.

Most of the people in the rear also continued to advance towards the front according to their signals.

In each small team, there were three or five soldiers at the front of the large army who gave up their weapons, simply held the tower shield with both hands, and moved forward against the strong wind.

At this moment, the snowflakes slowly fell on the players who had taken special precautions against the cold, but they did not melt away immediately. Instead, they slowly gave their armor a white camouflage color.

The group of warriors who took the lead in holding up the tower shield held the tower shield, which was about half a person tall, tightly, trying to cover the possible attack range of their whole body with the shield.

Most of them also wear half-body armor, which is a combination of chain armor and plate armor to protect all important parts of the body.

Behind them stood another group of warriors. Although they were only wearing light armor, they were all equipped with spears and spears. Once a contact battle broke out, they would take over and stab the long weapons in their hands while hiding behind their shields.

The barbarian players also stood behind them. Except for a few human barbarians, most of them were half-orc barbarians.

They were holding powerful melee weapons such as giant swords and heavy swords. Many of them had just gotten them this morning, and the maintenance lubricants on them had only just been applied.

According to the plan, these barbarians would start berserk at the moment the contact battle broke out and rush towards the front with all their strength.

At this time, the bards who were standing in order began to sing "war songs".

In the professional ability song of "boost morale", players within the coverage area have received a level 1 increase in attack power and damage.

Wanderers and rangers are always vigilant of the sky ahead, wary of the wave of arrows that may attack at any time.

The priests on the battlefield were also following the instructions of the battle plan, preparing to release the "blessing spell" at the moment of war.

This spell is also similar to the poet's war song, which can increase the attack power of players. Moreover, the coverage range of the spell is a radius of 15 meters. It is not a problem to bless hundreds of people with conscious gathering.

This is far more meaningful than simply releasing "Cure Minor Injuries" to restore a few points of a person's life.

This is also what the battle plan required against all odds.

In other words, only the level 4 mage "Starry Sky Reflection" is famous enough, and relying on the feat of suddenly joining the group and convincing the entire counterattack alliance's top management, can he so smoothly convince the majority of priests to release this group buff spell first, instead of Save the healing spell slot for emergencies.

As for the ranger profession, those who take the long-range shooting style are basically placed in the rear position.

Most of them received hundreds of brand new arrows in the morning.

According to the requirements of the plan, all they have to do is maintain long-range bow and arrow suppression when the war begins.

Zhao Xu's battle plan yesterday was actually the central content -

Explode with all your strength.

Use a short period of high-intensity combat power to directly crush the upper limit of Falling Star Lake's defense.

After the players die, they are immediately resurrected in the temple on the battlefield and rejoin the battle. This is also for this reason.

Zhao Xu needed the punch he threw to be powerful enough to knock the opponent down.

Instead of just feinting and jabs at each other all the time and fighting physically.

This was also the reason why the battle could not continue yesterday afternoon and was delayed by him until the next day.

His plan convinced the big guilds and studios to take out their only weapons and arrows in stock and distribute them together for use.

It will be replenished later through the proceeds from the re-auction of the mineral veins of "Falling Star Lake".

This was the big gamble he planned to convince everyone to take.

As the large army advanced, the soldiers at the forefront couldn't help but feel a little confused.

They were not moving very fast, but compared to yesterday, the obstacles on the battlefield seemed to have disappeared. On the contrary, these wind and snow can stop them for a while.

The "Private Guards", "Heavy Armored Cavalry", "Winter Wolves" and even the "Archer Regiment" in Falling Star Town have all disappeared.

"Everyone, stay vigilant and slow down a little bit."

Many commanders have noticed that the distance they advanced today has actually exceeded yesterday's progress.

If there were no obstacles, they would be able to walk to the gate of Falling Star Town in less than ten or twenty minutes.

But at this time, the ground ahead was completely white, and countless flying snow was swirling in the sky, making it impossible to see the situation farther away.

"Spread out, there are huge rocks." Suddenly, the wanderers in the team barely noticed something was wrong in the wind and snow ahead.

After hearing this, the players hurriedly raised the bucklers locked on the iron gloves on their hands, warily looking at the danger deep in the wind and snow.

I saw a huge boulder half as tall as a man drawing an arc and being thrown from mid-air.

"Bang." A huge boulder fell to the ground, and a loud noise was heard, directly making a huge hole in the soil.

However, Zhang Qi did not see the "boulder" again at this time, but heard the sound of more boulders falling to the ground.

Even he felt the vibration of the ground.

However, he didn't feel lucky for long before he saw three or four more boulders in mid-air ahead of him like cannonballs.

"Are there so many trebuchets?" Zhang Qi said in disbelief.

"Dodge, there are too many boulders." Some players shouted desperately.

At this moment, this kind of sound kept intermingling one after another on the battlefield, accompanied by the sound of huge rocks breaking through the air, resounding throughout the battlefield.

It also drowned out the songs of the bards little by little.

On the battlefield in front of Falling Star Lake, countless boulders rained down from the cover of wind and snow.

Every stone half a man's height is extremely heavy, and if it hits it casually, it will be shattered into pieces.

The players' reorganized formation was suddenly washed away by the sudden rain of boulders before they encountered the enemy.

"ah-"

A wanderer wearing chainmail armor shouted in pain. He thought that this armor would allow him to move freely, but he accidentally hit a boulder.

He was directly struck to death by the huge impact.

The surrounding players were terrified when they saw this scene.

But some of the boulders thrown were even burning with flames, so they could only try their best to dodge.

Suddenly, many of the scouting wanderers who were standing near the front also let out screams of death as weapons were added to their bodies, which could be heard over the sound of wind and snow.

And under the strong wind sweeping across the sky, a group of figures slowly appeared on the snow curtain in front.

A group of giants standing three to four meters high appeared in front of the player army. These giants were extremely strong, and one or two people could even lie flat on their chests. Most of the giants were wearing half-body armor or leather clothes.

They stared at the group of players in front of them as if they were staring at prey.

Most of these giants are "fire giants" and "frost giants", with a few "hill giants" mixed in. Most of them hold weapons such as giant axes and swords, and they look very brave.

Behind the fire giant leader, in addition to the fire giants of the same race, there were also a group of "cerberus" and "two-headed giants" that breathed flames, while the frost giant leader was surrounded by a large number of frost giants and "two-headed giants". "Winter Wolves" pack and "Ogre" deployment.

It was the first time for the players present to see a wave of monsters of this magnitude, and they stayed on the spot for a while.
