Three or four crystal-clear crystal balls are suspended in the canopy of the forest, with branches and leaves blocking its light green fluorescence; it is the size of a fist, rotating slowly, quietly monitoring the surrounding disturbances - its front side is
A strange symbol, like a wedge-shaped character, or an abstract eye. They were quietly hidden among the branches and leaves, but for a moment, a more vivid green light shot out from the center of these crystal balls.
, as if they suddenly came to life, they suddenly increased like wild bees, shooting into the depths of the forest in four directions...
Inadvertently, the black-robed mage frowned slightly, and his fingers clasping the staff were slightly bent, looking relaxed and powerful. At this moment, three or four pictures came into his mind, but
It's like a bright match in the dark, extinguished in an instant.
It felt like a stone was dropped into the mind, and the water surface rippled, as if light was born in the darkness: a picture of the forest suddenly spread out from top to bottom, it was an endless sea of dark green forest, with
It gradually becomes sparse from east to west. It is the southern extension of the Broken Limb Forest and is also the last section of the coastal hilly woodland. In the forest, the winding St. George Trail divides it into two sections. To the north is the Thorn Birds
Woodland, and to the south is Grass River Beach.
Looking upwards, the sky is gloomy, covered with dark clouds, and heavy rain is falling. Farther away, hills and mountains are looming, and in this overall picture, the owl and the grove hotel in the center of the forest are only about the size of a fingernail.
Just a little.
Looking down from above, four to five groups of people wearing black and red shirts were walking through the forest. A rough count of them was about five or sixty people. They entered the combat position in an orderly manner, starting from each person.
They all show good discipline.
The picture flashed by, and Xiao Fen curled his lips at the same time. The system warnings in his ears that his physical strength was below the safe limit came one after another, but he just silently said in his heart that he must hold on.
Next, the second picture is a high-moving scene, which surrounds the Owl and the Grove Hotel. What impressed the mage deeply was the water drops and branches and leaves coming towards his face. There were also some broken flags remaining on the ground.
There were crude military fortifications hidden in the bushes, as well as three or four sniper points - Xiao Fen noticed some elves and human shooters wearing gray cloaks, almost clinging to the tree trunks.
In the last scene, Xiao Fen felt a violent vibration. Almost at the same time, he felt that seven to eight magic eyes, including this one, disappeared from his senses.
"That's why I hate rangers." Taking a deep breath, the mage could be said to be exhausted. He took out the charcoal and paper with trembling hands, wrote down the current situation with a few strokes, and then stuffed it into the carrier pigeon's lap.
In the underground tube, he hung up the goblin's silver nameplate and let the little guy fly out.
After doing all this, Xiao Fen lay down on his back as if dead. He didn't care about the pouring rain. He just panted and stared at the sky with his eyes wide open and murmured to himself: "Next, it's up to the frog guy.
…”
"This is the report from the knight commander of the first echelon. They immediately entered the opponent's shooting range. There is currently no intention of the opponent to fight back."
"This is the report from the second echelon knight commander. They have entered the combat area. There is no exchange of fire."
"Here is the report from the reserve team. They are expected to complete the encirclement in one minute. There is no abnormal reaction at the moment."
"This is Xuanyuan Xue's report. There is no sign of the magician."
"Everything is normal in the third echelon."
"The seriously injured are being evacuated, everything is normal."
"The Ranger team has entered the combat position and is ready to conduct suppressive fire at any time."
While the deputy read out the information on each note in a low voice, he looked at the face of the girl in the abyss. He asked carefully: "They are silent, girl, is there a problem?" The latter subconsciously gave a favor and rubbed it.
His forehead and brows were deeply furrowed.
"What do you think?"
"From the situation point of view, each of our combat sequences will soon enter the predetermined combat position, and the other party will lose the initiative because they did not counterattack at the first time; from the perspective of strength comparison, we can put into combat the number of combat units.
There are one hundred and eighteen people, and the opponent's initial estimate is only twenty people. According to the feedback from the ranger team, there are sixteen to eighteen people. Although we are inferior to the opponent in terms of average level and equipment, generally speaking, this aspect is not good.
Comparable." The deputy carefully considered the words: "So everything is currently within the original plan. If... nothing happens, the envoy will not be able to fly out even if it inserts its wings in another thirty seconds...
…”
The girl of the abyss looked at her deputy with satisfaction. It is said that this girl just transferred from another famous game half a year ago, and she also worked for a large union. She is far more skilled and professional than ordinary players in terms of statistics and analysis.
While thinking this, he sighed secretly and fingered the bow string unconsciously - this lavender compound bow came from a famous series of tasks in the south. Although it can be completed repeatedly, its difficulty makes
Many people were afraid of it; he used to be proud of it because it was a symbol of his strength, but now this bow can no longer bring him a sense of peace of mind - he has encountered too many accidents in this day.
The ranger captain took another look at the Owl and Grove Inn, which seemed quiet amid the rain, and felt faintly at ease.
"What if there's an accident?" he asked to himself.
"Accident?" the deputy asked, "Like, what kind?"
"I don't know, but I always feel that something is wrong." The girl raised her eyebrows lightly: "My premonitions are always very effective."
"You mean they're going to break out, girl?"
"A breakout is inevitable." The ranger touched his nose and said decisively: "What I'm worried about is how they will break out."
The deputy suddenly thought of something and reminded in a low voice: "What if they use their plan to break through from the front?"
The girl of the abyss shook her head and gestured: "The first and second echelons enter the two wings, the smaller reserve team is stuck in the dead end, and the third echelon attacks frontally. I put the focus on the two wings, so no matter which direction I break through, the Thorn Knights
They can respond as quickly as possible." He stared at the silent Owl and Grove Hotel and said word by word: "So, I'm worried that they will make a plan to make me make wrong judgments."
"Girl, you have never missed anything." The deputy looked at the man with admiration, "At least I have never seen it."
Abyss Girl smiled, "I also believe that I am the best, and we are the best! The first and second generations of players are just advantages accumulated through time... Their capital will be eaten up soon.
Those guys don’t understand what games are at all..." He murmured: "Games are competitions, everything else is insignificant!"
The footsteps of the Thorn Knight were clearly audible, and the approaching danger was like a material sword. The sharp edge of the sword made people breathless. Everyone held their breath, but this was not because of fear.
The tension generated only made people feel solemn. Serent wiped the giant sword in his hands silently. There was no expression on his face, he just pressed his lips tightly and his eyes seemed to shine. In response to such a scene,
For a knight, the greatest honor is sacrifice. Such a scene will only make him passionate.
Lindis is doing the same thing. But her expression is more like that of a fighter who refuses to admit defeat. This girl never seems to be able to raise her head in front of her own people, but she will never show a trace to her opponent.
cowardice.
Ms. Roman looked unconcerned, although it was not the first time that the pony-tailed swordswoman opposite her stared at her...
"Even if you stare at me with such bitterness and hatred, I won't give you a salary increase," Roman said with a smile, "Lin."
"That's not the case at all, Miss!" Lin said angrily: "Get ready quickly. I will cover your escape in a moment!"
The lady tilted her head willfully and smiled: "What? This is unjustifiable! A brave lady like me will not run away in front of the enemy."
"Hey!" Lin stood up immediately, but the banging arrows that followed made her shrink back again. However, she still hid behind the wall and expressed her opinion: "How can you be so willful?
Miss! In this case, even if I die, it will be meaningless!"
However, Ms. Roman has always been good at using unreasonable words to make herself appear reasonable like a businessman. At this time, as always, she smiled: "That's not right, Lin. If you face yourself bravely,
Enemy, even if you fail and fall, you can't say it's meaningless, because you have defeated the fear in your heart."
Serende's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded with deep understanding.
"You are simply being sophistical. Miss, no matter whether Lin is brave or not, if she puts you in danger, then she has not fulfilled her duty. Miss, you will not let this happen, right?"
At these words, a serious-looking girl came out of the hotel kitchen, followed by Kuian and several female elf swordsmen. This group of people finally stopped near the stairs, and a ranger from the Hand of Despair just happened to
A position with no view.
Seeing these people, Roman looked surprised.
"Yueqing, why did you come out? What happened behind you? Shouldn't you retreat from behind?"
"Miss, please don't act like I didn't hear it when you heard the advice, and your method of changing the subject has always been so poor!" the girl said seriously, and then she took out a piece of paper and shook it.
Liaohuang: "As a servant, it is not my habit to let my master face danger alone. Even if he is destined to die, I will be counted among them."
"Me too," Kuian stood up, "You are just involved as outsiders, but you can be so brave, but this is the responsibility of Seren and I." He smiled politely.
"Miss, so are we."
"Miss, we are fighting side by side with you!" Several elven swordsmen greeted each other with smiles.
Ms. Roman clapped her hands happily and laughed: "Okay, it will be more lively with more people. But won't there be insufficient manpower for the breakout at the back? How did the mage arrange it?"
"Caro will be responsible for the rest. I made her cry just now." There was a smile on the girl's face for the first time, but it was so weird that it made people shudder: "So please don't worry."
"Yueqing, you are so cruel. Now you have to endure the bad guys outside." Roman nodded with a smile, "But can we really break out of the encirclement like this? The Master Mage's arrangement is too simple. It makes people uncomfortable.
I’m very worried.”
After saying this, the elf priest smiled and said: "Don't underestimate Palin, you will definitely regret it. The fun is yet to come...if we are lucky enough to see it." As he said this, he
There was a flash of white light in front of him. A gray homing pigeon fluttered into his arms.
"Here we come." Kuian's lips curled up.
The girl of the abyss and his deputy looked at each other.
"The third echelon reported that they were close to the main entrance of the hotel. There was no exchange of fire and there was no sound inside the hotel."
"The first echelon reports that everything is normal."
"The second echelon reported that everything is normal."
"The Ranger team reported that there was no sign of enemy activity."
The deputy's frown deepened. She couldn't figure out why the opponent who had been so fierce in the previous wave of attacks and counterattacks now seemed to have evaporated. It was obvious that this wave of attacks had already approached the main entrance of the hotel. But inside
But there was no response at all. This was not strange at all. It was weird.
She took a breath and asked nervously: "What's going on? Have they given up?"
The girl of the abyss did not answer. He knew that this kind of good thing could only be thought of by himself.
"Where is the reserve team? Is there any news?" he asked.
The deputy shook his head.
There was silence for nearly half a minute again——
The girl of the abyss and his deputy could only cling to the tree trunk and watch nervously as the skirmish line composed of Thorn Knights not far away crossed the St. George Trail little by little and approached the Owl and the Grove Hotel even though it was surrounded by
There was the sound of rain and water, but they turned a deaf ear to it. For a moment, they even had the illusion that the surroundings were completely silent.
At this time, there was a sound of murder and metal collision coming from the direction behind Xiaohe Grove Hotel. The sound immediately triggered the tense nerves of everyone present.
"Reserve team! Let the reserve team report quickly!" The girl of the abyss almost jumped up. He remembered every time he had faced various dangers since he entered this game, and he had been able to do so with ease every time. He had never been so nervous as today.
As if in response to his words, a homing pigeon landed on the deputy's shoulder.
"The reserve team reported that they were attacked by a large number of enemies, more than thirty people in number!" The deputy read and asked in surprise: "How is it possible? How can there be so many?"
"Son of a bitch, the Ranger Team, you bastard...the opponent has hidden his strength!" The girl from the abyss shouted through gritted teeth: "Quickly, tell the first echelon to get closer! Get over to them immediately and block them!"
But he frowned and grabbed the deputy who was about to release the carrier pigeon: "Wait a minute."
"What?" The deputy was startled.
"There is a problem." The girl from the abyss frowned, nodded her forehead and said: "There is definitely a problem with this breakout. I have a hunch! Let the reserve team push forward and let them widen the depth for me!"
"but……"
"Trust me, wait, wait."
The deputy turned her attention to the man again. She thought for a moment and finally nodded.
"Damn it, they didn't move!" The goblin huddled beside the opening blasted by magic, staring at the fierce fighting scene outside; his hand as dry as a chicken's claw made a spell-casting gesture, and the other hand
But he grabbed his robe tightly and kept yelling in a low voice. Behind him, Meng gently pressed his shoulders and shook his head at him.
"Don't worry."
The female bishop said softly. "Haha, there are a lot of prey outside..." Another girl chuckled and said softly.
The girl of the abyss has never felt that time can pass so long, as if one minute is a century. Every extra second of waiting will make him feel like going to hell. It is simply a kind of torture; the rain is pouring down, and this
The experienced ranger captain could no longer tell which part of it was rainwater and which part was his own sweat.
"Is there any news?" His voice was trembling a little.
"The third echelon has broken through from the front, and the opponent's people are found in the hotel lobby; there is no new news from the reserve team, and there is no news from the first and second echelons!" the deputy answered while continuing to receive and release homing pigeons, but suddenly
She paused and shouted: "There is news from Xuanyuan Xue."
"Xuanyuan blood?"
"He found traces of the black-robed mage."
"Damn, that's such a coincidence, there's something behind it!" The girl from the abyss hesitated for a moment: "Let him keep an eye on that guy and don't act rashly!"
"...But he said that the mage was moving south, as if he was escaping."
The abyss girl was startled, then took a deep breath: "Don't worry."
At this time, the deputy's eyes widened: "The first echelon reported!" She almost trembled and shouted: "They encountered an ambush, it was invisibility! There were twenty enemies in the hall, and they were facing the front.
Counter-assault! Captain, their breakout direction is towards the main entrance. "Coming!" The girl of the abyss almost jumped up: "Let the first and second echelons move towards the main entrance of the hotel and stop the envoys! In addition, let the Falcon team prepare to go to the nearest resurrection.
Point, I want that bishop to disappear from this world!"
But the deputy had no time to convey this series of orders, because she immediately received a new message: "Xuanyuan Blood Report, the other party's black-robed mage is turning back towards the main entrance of the hotel!" After saying that, she raised her head nervously.
Come and see your captain.
It was indeed like this! The girl of the abyss gritted her teeth, and the veins on her forehead were clearly visible. Everything was just as he expected. The other party indeed set up a trap for him at the last moment. But at this time, he calmed down instead, only the unknown and the
Mystery is what confuses people. When all the schemes come to light, they can be dismissed.
The girl of the abyss believed in her own judgment, because he had never made a mistake. He lowered his head and whispered: "Let Xuanyuan Xue stop him at all costs!"
The next moment, the deputy suddenly raised his head with joy on his face and shouted excitedly: "There is news from the reserve team! The attack on their defense line was all illusions, all illusions! Captain, you are right again, you really can't make mistakes!"
"
The girl of the abyss breathed a sigh of relief and showed a proud smile.
"So what if you are a legendary player, your era has passed..." He added silently in his heart. He raised his head, and in the sky in that direction, a little stream of fire was speeding towards his location...
