The battle in the city of Ovidesa has entered a fierce stage. The Holy White Rose Cavalry on Lei Hanxin's side used the "Tip of the Holy Spear" regiment as the front line and displayed their miraculous positional assault skills to break through in one fell swoop.
After the fire blockade of the opponent's west gate, the situation quickly tilted towards Lei Hanxin's side~
I have to add a little extra explanation here:
That is any territory currently on the world map, including NPC territories and even national capital-level territories. The city defense turrets in the territory cannot be controlled.
Although these big guys have fierce firepower and unlimited ammunition [this refers to the basic type. If it is connected to the territory magic tower, the power of the turret will further increase significantly, but when used, it will consume the stored magic power of the territory's public magic pool. Once the public magic is
If the pool is exhausted, the turret's firepower will drop to its basic power], but it has uncontrollable characteristics.
Although as the level of the territory continues to increase, the attack AI of these turrets will become more and more sophisticated, but in short it cannot be controlled by the lord in detail. At most, the lord can only choose to fire the turret or not fire.
Of course, this phenomenon is not completely unchangeable, but it involves the combination of profound "lord knowledge" and special effects. Players must be able to combine "city defense expert", "turret master" and "battle commander".
Only with advanced talents like this can it be possible to manually control the turret attack and even further increase the turret firepower.
However, it is a pity that there is currently no such player in the entire world map. There are a small number of high-level heroes with similar talents among NPC generals. But they cannot be hired by players.
Under such a situation, the "Tip of the Holy Spear" Knights organized by Lei Hanxin can be said to be the natural nemesis of most territorial defense arrangements!
This standard cavalry regiment of 500 people not only includes the best 500 rare and powerful horses in the City of Faith, as well as the matching royal cavalry war vests purchased from the capital of the Eagle Heart Empire. The players themselves also
An elite disciplined force carefully selected from millions of players in the City of Faith!
Since the main thing this unit needs to face is to break through the enemy's city defense fire network, discipline and training are more important than anything else. During the selection process, Knight Lant proposed the concept of "daily training". Anyone who cannot adhere to this will
The people who followed the rules were eventually eliminated, and now
These five hundred people can be said to be real "veterans" who have been in the running-in period for more than a month! The "training" time alone exceeds seven or eight hours a day. Except for the kind of professional players and the so-called "home-based online game diehards"
"Ordinary players really don't have the energy to be selected for such an extreme team.
Of course, since they can enter the "Top of the Holy Spear" group under such harsh conditions, the senior officials of the City of Faith will naturally not treat these players badly.
Therefore, no matter what good things they have on hand, they will provide them with the first priority as much as possible, which can further strengthen their loyalty to the City of Faith.
After such intensive selection, training, and investment, the most elite and powerful siege tactics among human players finally blossomed on this day!
After the people of this regiment broke through the fire blockade of the crossbows and city defense turrets at the head of the city, it not only meant that they could freely attack the four city gates [run around the city and you can reach any gate], but more importantly
They are enough to easily contain the main long-range firepower of the entire city of Ovidesa!
Because the city defense turrets are uncontrollable, they only need to send a few people out to take advantage of the city defense turrets' attack cooldown to provide a full twelve seconds of turret-free firepower for the subsequent assault troops!
Although the bed crossbow troops on the top of the city could have suppressed this tactic, the bed crossbows are just fixed-point turrets. They are troublesome to move, and operating their aiming and steering is not an easy task. In addition, the player troops rarely have the opportunity to move at will on weekdays.
Using these advanced war machines, where can I play with them temporarily?
So just like before, although the players on the top of the city hated the shameless knights below, no matter how they aimed or shot, the actual damage caused was minimal~
Of course, bed crossbows and the like were all dodged by the elites of the Holy Spear. As for ordinary machine crossbows, bows and arrows, they did not care much about minor damage~
As heavy armored cavalry, their defense power is second only to the "Tower Shield Guards", an extreme full-defense unit, and when mounted, the HP of the war horse itself is much higher than that of players of the same level.
Not to mention that these "rare" war horses have 25% higher basic attributes than ordinary war horses.
To put it bluntly, these knight players at the tip of the holy spear are already comparable to existences such as Xiaobo SS at the same level in terms of defense and blood volume. If they enter the ultimate charge state, ignoring the front and
With more than 80% of the physical attack effect on the side, even the boss creatures of the same class cannot compare with the heavy armored cavalry in that state in terms of resistance to physical attacks.
To put it bluntly, a heavy armored cavalry in that state is almost as "physically immune" unless it is hit by a completely irresistible force.
At this moment, although the cavalry at the Tip of the Holy Spear cannot enter the sprint state and ignore the damage caused by small bows and arrows, their strong defense and thick blood volume are enough to support them.
But the most crucial point is that
Why is this regiment of cavalry named "Point of the Holy Spear"?
Because as the players on the city of Ovidesa saw before, nearly half of the people in this army had "part-time" jobs as priests!
Although the behavior of "part-time job" will inevitably dilute the player's combat effectiveness in a certain specialized field, the high defense and high mobility characteristics of the Holy Spear's Tip have made them immortal.
As long as the attack received is not fatal enough, team members can heal each other and recover quickly. This "special unit" is even like those legendary "Paladins" who can fight and resist. Or, they are this hero.
A natural paladin in the world of Invincible OL, right?
It has to be said that Knight Lant may not have considered similar settings when he originally proposed to form this elite force.
All in all, the firepower of the turrets in the city of Ovidesa is now almost useless. Although the rain of arrows on the city is like locusts, the effect is minimal.
In addition to speeding up the healing speed of the "paladins" below, the number of arrows wasted on their side has been so large that people can't help but be stunned.
Perhaps the single biggest change since the start of the war is the group of gryphon troops that have taken off and are flying outside the crossbow fire line on the city of Ovidesa.
The moment the gryphons took off, the players on the wall of Ovidesa already guessed what their opponents wanted to do and attacked the city directly! Seize the firepower!
This is the most dangerous step in a siege battle, but it is also the step most likely to break the city's defense advantage!
Once the territorial city wall defense line is taken away by the siege, it means that the advantage of long-range attacks in the city and the free opening and closing of the city gate will be directly taken away, and because the firepower of the city defense turret will also have an impact on the city wall itself. On the contrary, the turret
Don't dare to concentrate your firepower too much here. It can easily be completely occupied by the siege forces flying up the city wall.
In all the territorial battles that have occurred between player lords so far, even the dominant side rarely uses such extreme methods to win victory, because in addition to requiring the siege party to have an absolute advantage in air force strength, it also requires
You will inevitably be attacked by the opponent's long-range firepower! Although it is the fastest way to destroy the city, it is also the situation with the most serious battle losses!
Are these guys from the human race really impatient to this extent?
The city commander was angry, but he naturally stopped the crossbow troops from shooting at the heavy armored knights on the ground who were as annoying as flies.
Anyway, it can't be hit by direct fire. And they will inevitably draw away the firepower of the city defense turrets. Instead of adding the firepower of the bed crossbows, it is better to eat all these bastard air soldiers!
The griffons of the human race have long been domesticated as special combat mounts, and there is even a mature breeding model for centralized breeding to increase production. Therefore, compared to the pegasus of the elves, they are of high quality and low price.
However, no matter how much you have, it is still a precious air force!
It can't hurt the cavalry on the ground, and I don't believe it can't hurt these heavy griffins that fly at average speed!
However, the city of Ovidesa had a good idea, but they could only stare at those griffins swimming outside the line of fire.
At this moment, the commander of Ovidesa City finally realized the terror of his opponent~
The opponent's commander who was hiding in the dark might have guessed their reaction. He didn't want the shoe griffon to come out to attack the city at all. It was clearly just to distract attention.
And just in this moment of delay, after losing the threat of the crossbows, the Holy Spear Cavalry Regiment under the city became more and more bold and unruly, and even divided into four armies. Not only did the city gates on all sides bang with a bang, but the generals also
The firepower of the four turrets in the ground was completely dispersed and ineffective. It was almost fifteen minutes after the battle started, and the turrets did not even hit the enemy once. This was simply unheard of before!!!
"Damn if this continues, we're going to be eaten to death by these bastards!
Attention everyone!
The air assault corps is out! Concentrate at the west gate immediately and follow me out of the city to attack the enemy! Attention, crossbow team, once the enemy is locked, strike hard immediately and make sure to annihilate all the enemies outside the west gate!"
"But! Boss! Boss Michael had an order before. Didn't he make it clear that we only defend but not attack, and absolutely cannot go out of the city to fight? Are you like this?"
"It's already this time, why do you still care about untimely orders?
The elites in the territory have been taken away long ago, and other points do not dare to send out manpower for reinforcements at this time. We have no reinforcements, do you understand?
If the situation continues like this, our city gate will inevitably be blasted by the opponent, and even the west gate will not be able to hold on for long!
By then, when the enemy's cavalry comes in, what chance do you think we have of winning?
Damn it~
What if they ambushed an ordinary army outside the city and are waiting for the moment when the gate is blasted open? Do you think we can still hold it by then?
Now is not the time to stick to untimely orders. All air raid troops listen to my orders and march out to assemble!!!"
The supreme commander of Ovidesa ignored the dissuasion of his subordinates and forcibly gathered the last elite troops in the territory to prepare for a last-ditch battle.
In fact, at this point, he has no other choice at all~
Just like what he said, if the current situation continues to be stalemate, it is impossible for them to escape the inevitable end unless they can wait for rescue in time.
But is that possible?
There are always players in the city checking the forum channel to check the accurate movements of Michael's elite troops.
However, the news of the attack on the territory had been transmitted for more than ten or twenty minutes. Apart from the order to "hold it", there was no movement there. It was obvious that they were tripped up by their opponents.
At this time, who else can they rely on besides themselves?
Those legendary allies who are also from the Human Race Holy Alliance?
Stop kidding~
Those useless crossbowmen are not even as useful as their elf archers!
The last elite force that Michael left in the city of Ovidesa was actually a powerful "flying cavalry unit". All the archer players in the team had obtained Pegasus mounts, and their riding skills
They have also practiced to an extremely high level, which is enough to support them in maintaining constant firepower in normal flight conditions.
Then everyone can summon one or two more flying units as support or escort. In this way, such an "air attack unit" is actually quite powerful, and may not be weaker than the opponent's weird and terrifying heavy armored cavalry unit.
However, the number of such elite troops is also small. There are only three hundred people in the entire city of Ovidesa. The three brigades will be
The urgently assembled air strike force set out and immediately attacked the Spearhead Cavalry Regiment outside the west gate head-on!
The number of leading corps on both sides is close to one to one, but the air assault corps is a real elite archer after all. Its firepower is not the slightest, especially after flying out of the city, it has a better shooting angle, and various skills can finally be poured out without any obstacles.
When he came out, the tip of the Holy Spear, which was unable to fight back for a moment, ran away~
Seeing that the enemy's heavy armored cavalry regiment began to shrink their defenses, the city defense players in Ovidesa couldn't help but cheer in unison, as if victory was already in sight~
After all, they were the elite cavalry that had suppressed them for more than ten minutes and frantically bombarded the city gate. However, no matter how exquisite their movements were, what was the use?
After reaching the short to medium distance, the flight time of arrows is almost negligible. Faced with the rapid attacks that are coming, unless they can move at lightning speed, they can't think of being able to continue to dodge those arrow rain attacks. As for the cavalry,
No matter how thick the armor is, it lacks effective long-range attack methods. In the final analysis, it can only be a piece of trash that can't fight back after being beaten!
Yes, yes, this is the pride of the elves! The elite corps of the elves! The light shooters walking in the sky combine mobility and attack firepower to the extreme perfection!
Facing such elites, what about the enemy's heavy armored cavalry?
As long as their mp and potions are exhausted, it will be a complete dream to evacuate from the surroundings of Ovidesa!
The long-range troops on top of the city have long been prepared. Once these people lose their strength and want to retreat, they will immediately use crazy intensive firepower to let these arrogant human players know that this is not a place for them to run wild!
Want to attack their elves’ fourth-level territory?
It’s better to wait until they have a serious seventh-level angel army before dreaming!
However, nightmares often appear suddenly at the moment when people think their dreams are about to come true. This is the real ultimate nightmare!
Just when all the elf players here were excited and wanted to scare the arrogant invading enemies to death with cheers, an emergency call came from outside the east gate! A large group of unknown enemies were sprinting towards the east gate.
We are about to enter the 400-meter fire line!
"What??? Say it again!!!"
At this moment, the top commander in the city of Ovidesa was still leading the air assault regiment in a fierce battle with the enemy outside the west gate. He was sure that his air-to-ground advantage would completely overwhelm the opponent, so he had no intention of giving up this honor to others.
Nowadays, every player is smarter than the last. As soon as there is a good show, almost everyone will turn on their camera and record like crazy. In comparison, the renewal of service functions is like drizzle.
The strength of the opponent is also obvious to all. The more powerful the opponent is, the higher the reputation you can gain after killing it!
Thinking that Liuyun, Emperor Aojian, Flanrette and Michael are as prestigious as superstars, who wouldn't want to be as famous as them, with their names resounding in this fantasy world?
Therefore, the commander killed so hard in that short period of time just now. I just wish I had to use all my energy to suck milk~
But he was killing so well when the rear suddenly told him that there were a large number of enemy troops at the east gate. What should he do? Rush over immediately to find out the situation? Damn it! Even he can't fly that fast!
"Quick, tell me what's going on, what's the opponent's configuration? How many are there? How fast is the formation! Why are you dawdling!!!"
"But boss, there are so many people, thousands of them, all cavalry, so densely packed. I don't know what to say!!! They charged the city!!! They actually started to rush the city directly!!!
Damn it, the city defense artillery fire was diverted by those bastards below the city gate again!
It's over. They are so fast. They have already started their ultimate charge. There is no time for the 12-second turret to cool down. They will definitely hit them! Boss, what should we do now? How should we fight? Do you want the Crossbow Team?
Fire? Hey. Hey! Boss, boss, please speak up."
Finished
Just when the other end was still asking this side hoarsely about what to do next, the commander who was already stunned on the back of Pegasus just wanted to cry loudly~
The opponent clearly had thousands of cavalry capable of charging into the city with brute force, but they chose such a "despicable" strategy to lower his vigilance, distract him and make him want to cry;
The cavalry team of only 500 people in front of him was as strong as ghosts. Their flexible and flexible positioning methods completely surpassed the conventional tactics of players at this stage and made him want to cry;
And now he didn't even need to look in the direction of the east gate to hear the chaotic noise over there, which made him want to cry. What should he do? What should he do next?
What if the east gate is breached by them?
What if the city of Ovidesa is captured by them?
What should Michael do if he comes back and raises an army to accuse him?
And now this group of beastly cavalry, they have started smashing the west gate again. Their backup has already arrived at the east gate. And the gate was broken only in an instant. Why are they still smashing the west gate? There are people coming here from the west?
How should he direct now?
Should we continue to hunt down this group of elite cavalry, or should we turn around and deal with the new enemies on the east gate?
It’s messy~
The whole battlefield is in chaos~
There were shouts of killing outside the city of Ovidesa, but the city defense troops were already in chaos!
A large number of archers were concentrated at the west gate (previously concentrated to deal with the main force of the Holy Spear). However, there were only more than 300 enemies fighting with them here, while the east gate was almost broken by the enemy at a touch.
However, the North and South gates still don’t know whether they should return for help, and they are still standing there doing nothing.
The enemy has stirred up a cloud of smoke and rushed into the city of Ovidesa. What should we do next?
Organize street fighting in the city to counterattack the enemy?
But those are all human cavalry troops!
Even if the special effects of the horse's charge cannot be fully utilized in urban civil wars, can the elves' players defeat their opponents even if they fight warriors against warriors?
What made the confused commander almost fall from the sky in fright was that after the knights rushed into the city gate, they actually collectively released a large number of griffins!
But it's not the kind of high-end elites, but a large group of rubbish griffons that are no more than level 30 or 40!
What do they want to do?
Are you expecting such rubbish troops to kill elven players?
Of course not~
Because in fact, their real purpose is to distract the effective killing power of the city defense turrets!
Nowadays, the defense line at the head of the city of Ovidesa has not been lost, which means that even if the opponent occupies the main city area, it must always accept the rain of arrows pouring down from the surrounding walls.
As long as the wall remains intact for a moment, the player troops on top of the city will always be able to exert a powerful suppressive effect on the bottom.
In this way, the city defense turrets will give priority to destroying the enemy's air force to ensure that their own city wall defenses are stable and not give the enemy a chance to attack the city.
But now those "air force" are just garbage!
Even close combat cannot pose any threat to the defenders on the city!
Comparatively speaking, those players who were already heading towards the main city area were more terrifying, but the turret simply ignored them, just staring at those garbage griffins and firing continuously, but the attack efficiency was not very good.
How high~
What do those people want to do?
You know everything with your butt!
Attack the territorial meeting hall, dismantle the "territory core", and completely seize control of the territory!!!
However, the ground defense arranged by the city of Ovidesa along the way is as thin as a joke! Because there are almost only some useless dwarves and centaur warriors left on the city, and the level is not very high, what equipment is there?
It’s even more of a joke to compare with players~
Do you expect them to be able to guard the central avenue leading from the east gate to the territorial meeting hall?
Don't be kidding me! It's hard to hold off even if you want to!
Almost in an instant, the scene of the city being destroyed and the territory changing hands was already swaying back and forth in front of the theater commander. He knew that what was waiting for him would only be the thunderous wrath from Michael.
"What??? Say it to me again!!!"
The news that the city of Ovidesa was about to be destroyed could not be concealed, so the other party chose to take the initiative to inform Michael. Unfortunately, his frankness did not win Michael's favor at all. In his hesitant cry,
Michael almost wanted to go through the private chat channel to the other end and strangle this bastard to death!
That is the city of Ovidesa! The center of his planned territory is also the hub that will help him quickly participate in important battles on the entire world map in the future!
Michael originally planned to build a high-end city there and completely protect the underground passage. Unexpectedly,
Hateful!!!
In just twenty minutes, that loser actually told me that the city could not be defended!!!
A fourth-level territory!!! It is an absolutely first-class high-level territory on the world map today [Except for the two exceptions of Plague City and City of Faith, the fourth- and fifth-level territories are first-line territories. However, the fifth-level territories are very rare. Players
Having a fourth-level territory can basically guarantee the status of a front-line lord]!!!
In such a high-level territory, coupled with complete defense facilities and sufficient reserves of war machinery, even if the player troops are a little smaller, there are still a total of 5,000 people!
How could it be possible that it was gone in the blink of an eye???
Could it be that that loser opened the city gate and invited the other party to come in and smash the meeting hall???
At this moment, Michael was so angry that he wanted to peel off the skin of that useless bastard. However, the other party finally told him some valuable news, that is, they finally confirmed the identity of the siege force.
As Michael expected - City of Faith, Knights of the Holy White Rose
