The magic circle soon gathered 10,000 players, and without saying anything, Xifan started the [Frenzy Ritual] again.
After the ceremony started, the dark mist flowed rapidly in the formation. The players were affected by the mist, their eyes were bloodshot, and they fell into a state of frenzy and uncontrollable. They took out their weapons and attacked nearby targets.
[Fireball], [Charge], [Backstab], [Hammer of Judgment]...
Players fling their skills wildly around them until they are destroyed or the surrounding targets are destroyed.
The players' frenzied rituals are different from those of the aborigines.
Players will not bleed, let alone lose limbs. Some players' blood volume will be cleared due to the violent attacks of nearby players, and they will disappear into white light. Some players will lie on the ground with a trace of blood, seriously injured and on the verge of death.
But the same thing is that players and civilians are frantically launching attacks on surrounding targets.
The whole process of the frenzied ritual lasted about 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the ritual did not end until the last player fell.
During this ceremony, half of the players died, and the other half survived with a trace of blood, but they also had the [serious injury] debuff on them.
[Serious injury]: All attributes are reduced by 50%, and movement speed is reduced by 60%, lasting 10 minutes.
But there is good news.
After the ceremony, Lao Li dragged his seriously injured body and walked out with several teammates supporting each other, but his face looked relaxed.
After walking out of the magic circle, he loudly said to the players outside: "It's okay, everyone can go in with confidence, the pain is not as severe as expected.
At the beginning, everyone will feel some nausea and dizziness, and after being controlled, they will lose any consciousness.
By the time the ceremony is over, the half of the players who died should not feel pain. The seriously injured players will feel pain all over their bodies after waking up, but the pain is almost equivalent to falling from a 3-meter-high platform, and it is completely up to everyone to bear.
Within the range.”
Hearing Lao Li's words, the players outside the formation breathed a sigh of relief. Falling from the 3-meter-high platform shouldn't be very painful, right?
After Lao Li finished speaking, he looked at Su Yu who was issuing tasks to the players: "Nemesis, I heard that there is no limit to the number of times this task can be completed?"
Su Yu nodded: "No, as long as you don't die, you can always enter the magic circle again."
"Then I'll go in again! It takes ten minutes to get a skill scroll. It feels like a good deal."
Lao Li came to Su Yu and handed over the task, and then took on the second task.
"You are still seriously injured. Do you want to take a moment before going in?" Su Yu was a little worried.
"It's okay!" Lao Li waved his hand easily: "I just want to test it for everyone to see if entering the magic circle when seriously injured will make the pain worse."
"Well, Lao Li, please be more careful!"
"Um."
Including Lao Li, another group of tens of thousands of players walked into the magic circle.
Xifan glanced down and started the frenzy ritual again. The players once again started to attack each other under the influence of the ritual.
...
Now in the game, players from the imperial side have gathered towards Forest City, and the situation at the magic circle has long been recorded as a video by the players and posted to the official offline forum.
In particular, the video of Xi Fan brutally massacring tens of thousands of civilians was widely disseminated.
After seeing this video, the entire forum went into shock!
When everyone saw the helpless and struggling Forest City civilians in the magic circle, they couldn't help but think of the Blue Star humans and Skrulls in the real world.
Feeling the same, criticism of Xi Fan was overwhelming:
"Xifan is so heartless!"
"That's ten thousand lives!"
"Xi Fan doesn't regard civilians as human beings at all. The 'used civilians' he calls are so cold-blooded!"
"Xi Fan must die!"
"Mr. Ke, you must take us out of this bad breath!"
"Mr. Ke, you must work harder!"
Su Yu has been paying attention to the dynamics of the official forum. Seeing the passionate condemnation from the players, he immediately expressed his stance: "Don't worry, everyone, if I can find a chance to kill Xi Fan, I will kill him even if I risk my life.
Give everyone this bad breath!"
…
As the video spread more and more widely, Xifan's behavior aroused public outrage throughout the gaming community, triggering the same hatred among all players.
Although the players on the imperial side could not do anything to Xifan, they all tried their best to save the civilians who survived the frenzied ritual, or participated in the frenzied ritual themselves to reduce the frequency of Xifan's use of civilians.
As for the players of the rebel army, they can also enter Forest City and participate in the mad ceremony.
After participating in the ceremony, they returned to Plantagenet City and used their own strength to urge the rebel troops to march towards Forest City quickly. If the rebels had arrived a second earlier, fewer civilians would have died in Forest City.
...
...
Xi Fan's opponents and foreign forces would definitely not agree to such an unscrupulous breakthrough.
Six hours after the frenzied ceremony started, a large number of dense small black spots appeared in the northern sky.
The high-level warriors from the rebel side have arrived!
Duke Anzu Sever and Duke Lantilus led all the powerful men above level five in the rebel army to the sky above Forest City.
The rebels have 5 seventh-level powerhouses, 43 sixth-level powerhouses, and 387 fifth-level powerhouses. This does not include the reinforcements sent by the Ryan Empire next door - the seventh-level peak paladin Turayan, the sixth-level powerhouse.
Peak mage Antonidas.
In terms of high-end combat effectiveness, the rebels are even better than the empire.
In addition to humans, seventh-level warriors from the elves, dwarves, dragons, and beasts also appeared around Forest City. However, because of the "Peace Agreement" signed between the major races, they could not participate in the war and could only remain silent.
Watch.
The empire headed by Xi Fan was naturally facing a formidable enemy. Powerful men above level five rose into the air to surround Xi Fan. A large-scale battle was about to begin.
...
Duke Lantilus flew at the front of the group. He looked at Sivan above the magic circle and asked loudly:
"Xi Fan! You do whatever it takes to improve your realm and kill countless civilians! Don't you feel ashamed?"
"Hmph! That sounds grand." Xi Fan glared at him coldly: "If you had such an opportunity, would you miss it?"
Duke Lantilus's face changed slightly, but he immediately said loudly: "I will definitely not do such a heartless thing! Our Kallet coalition always puts the safety of people's lives first..."
"Really?" Xifan interrupted him: "In the Battle of Blackwater City six months ago, you forced a group of peasants who had no military training at all and no weapons and equipment to rush to the front and serve as cannon fodder for the regular army;
Blackwater City could not be conquered for a long time, and you even sent people to throw the carpet of plague virus into the city, causing a large number of innocent civilians to be infected with the plague..."
Hearing Xifan's words, Landilus looked a little confused.
These are all top secrets, and all the soldiers involved were dealt with by him. How did Xi Fan know?
Duke Lantilus hurriedly said to the strong men behind him: "We can't continue nagging Xifan. The longer we delay, the more fragments he will be able to obtain from the frenzied ritual.
Your Excellency Turayan, your attributes are the most restrained against Xifan, so I will rely on you more this time!"
"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Turalyon drew a huge golden sword from his back and rushed towards Sivan like a golden lightning bolt.
All the strong men in the rebel army followed Turayan and attacked the opponent's formation.
An earth-shattering battle began over Forest City.
