Four hundred and fortieth chapters sudden sound of artillery fire
. Originally, before formally meeting the Lord of Glory City, Liu Yifei had been worried that this matter would change again. The main reason was that the city lieutenant of Glory City was too unpredictable.
It stands to reason that in a medium-sized system city, there are many important people under the city lord, such as the chiefs of various professional unions, managers of magic towers, etc. They are all free NPCs with extremely high soul authority, and there are many hidden ones among them.
An unparalleled spiritual powerhouse.
But in Liu Yifei's mind, a small city lieutenant seemed not to be a big shot. On the other hand, Liu Yifei felt that this city lieutenant named Seton was not simple in terms of intelligence alone...
What Liu Yifei is most worried about right now is that this glorious city will be infiltrated by enemies again.
After the events of the previous two days, Liu Yifei already knew that the mastermind Lich Inheim had the ability to quickly transform humans into corpse witches while still maintaining their human appearance.
Judging from the situation in front of him, this unknown lich must be playing a huge game of chess! The high level of the chess game and the depth of the inside story are not something that Liu Yifei can fully understand on his own in a short time.
Moreover, even the original pastor and bishop of Seyan City could be overthrown by this lich. What else is impossible?
When Liu Yifei thought of the city lieutenant's "making things difficult" before, he couldn't help but suspect the other party's true identity, but he had no way to verify it, which really bothered him.
But fortunately, it seems that the city lieutenant was quite efficient this time and did not do anything extra besides inviting the city lord. At least from the expression of the young city lord, it does not seem that he has any dislike for Liu Yifei.
meaning~
"Good day to the strange lord who has traveled here.
I am the city lord of this city, Alfred. I am sorry for my neglect of you and your subordinates before, but you have also seen the current situation of this city, and I was busy dealing with other affairs before, so I really
There is no way to come forward directly, my subordinates are so negligent, I hope you are not angry."
Mr. Dream Knight nodded slightly as a salute and said politely.
"Where are the words~ The city lord's diligence in city affairs is a blessing to the people and is a model for our descendants to follow. How can you say that you are negligent?
I just don’t know if you know that I also brought a secret message from Lord Xinrag? The matter is very important and the implications are very wide, so we’d better discuss it quickly.”
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Dream Knight and Lord of Glory City were stunned after hearing this, and looked at the city lieutenant next to him with a frown. It was obvious that he had not received any reminder before coming here.
"This matter is of great importance. Can you lend me a moment to speak?"
At this time, the army was besieging the city, and Liu Yifei had no time to give the opponent time to relieve his surprise. He immediately asked Alfred to one side, about ten meters away from the others, and then handed over the diamond that he had obtained from Sir Xinrag.
The peculiar "Light Knight's Silver Legion Commander's Badge" was handed over.
"This is... Sir Sir's badge! How did this thing get into your hands?"
When he first saw Liu Yifei taking off the badge from his chest and handing it over, City Lord Alfred looked puzzled. But when he actually took over the small object, he felt a burst of surprise that could not be concealed, and the next moment his face suddenly changed.
In a sudden change, there was a hint of shock and anger in the seriousness, and even the tone of his speech became stern.
Knowing that the token worked, the big stone in Liu Yifei's heart was more or less put to the ground, and his thoughts were finally sent to the place. Then he roughly told what happened along the way. Of course, he also knew about the huge conspiracy about this matter.
Mentioned it briefly.
When he heard that the matter was so serious, even a big man like Alfred could not help but change his face. What shocked him the most was the situation of old Sir Sinrag at this moment.
Injured by a legendary weapon, he was in a deep coma, unable to receive treatment, and his life or death was uncertain...
After listening to Liu Yifei's story, how could Alfred remain calm? He immediately hurriedly rushed down the city with the city lieutenant. No matter what, he wanted to see Sir Xinrag's injury first.
Liu Yifei later handed Sir Sinrag to his adjutant Neville to take care of him, and this woman was a stubborn woman who only recognized military orders and orders from her superiors. In order to avoid misunderstandings, Liu Yifei had no choice but to take everyone with him and follow the Lord of the City of Alfred.
After arriving at the top of the city, we went together to check on the condition of Sir Sinrag who was in a coma.
It was just that everyone here was halfway down the city wall when they suddenly heard a loud roar like thunder from the sky outside, followed closely by the sound of tearing the air, which made people's teeth ache and their heads dizzy.
~
No! The troops outside are crazy! They actually started to attack the City of Glory directly!
This was Liu Yifei's first reaction after hearing the strange loud noise.
How else can we say that his experience is his biggest advantage?
Thinking about what happened just two months ago, when Liu Yifei was messing around with the elves with the young assassin and others, he heard similar sounds on the battlefield where the red soul undead army besieged the elven city.
This was basically the sound of a giant catapult moving in unison, but what followed was the sound of a real volley of thousands of arrows!
"Enemy attack! Get down!"
Liu Yifei's reaction was not unpleasant. When the thoughts flashed through his mind, he turned around reflexively and dragged the Lei family sisters behind him to squat at the angle between the stairs and the city wall. At the same time, he shouted a reminder at the top of his lungs.
Others.
Liu Yifei's roar was on a regional channel, which meant that not only the people around him could hear it, but also a considerable number of players in the square below the City of Glory could also receive Liu Yifei's warning.
It's a pity that everyone heard the warning, but it's another thing to react~
There are too many new things happening in the game today. Most of them are big battles that veterans who have played the game for several years have never experienced. Although quite a few people have seen the videos circulated on the elven battlefield before,
However, knowing and experiencing it are completely different things. As long as you have not experienced some things, you will never be able to master them.
Just like everyone knows how to dodge bullets, but as long as you have never crawled out of the dead on the battlefield, you will never understand how to dodge to save your life.
Many players gathered in the city were startled by the loud noise just now. The originally bustling square fell silent for an instant, and then they heard Liu Yifei roar inexplicably. Many people were still asking, in the end
Something happened, and the next moment, they finally understood what happened...
Boom!
After a loud bang, there were seven or eight intensive loud bangs. In just one second, the city wall of the City of Glory was greeted by more than a dozen large stones, followed by countless arrows.
It was like a rain of arrows falling from the sky, constantly impacting the defense line of NPC soldiers on the city wall, causing dense damage figures.
Fortunately, due to the strange behavior of Liu Yifei and others outside the city before, and Liu Yifei's previous reminders, the guards on the city wall were quite tight. In addition to a large number of archers waiting in formation, there were also a considerable number of Crusaders.
On one side of the formation, shields were raised to protect them.
Although this wave of arrows came with a fierce force, most of them were blocked, and the damage caused was not huge~
Although the city lord, city lieutenant and other commanding personnel were not present, the soldiers were not stupid. After being directly attacked, they instinctively fought back.
The next moment, the second-level archers on the top of the city drew their bows and fired at each other under the escort of the Crusaders beside them. Taking advantage of their height advantage, they slanted the fierce rain of arrows towards the enemy troops who were aggressively attacking outside the city.
The situation on the field was chaotic for a while, and both sides were having fun shooting at each other. However, although the City of Glory had the advantage of defending the city, it could not withstand the opponent's many catapults. Every time a huge stone hit, in addition to knocking
In addition to the durability of a part of the city wall, it will also have a considerable impact on the defenders on the surrounding walls. If the stone is hit accurately and lands directly on the wall, although the damage to the city wall is not much, it will fall down in one second.
There were more than a dozen soldiers around.
Among the more than ten soldiers who died, about half were fourth-order crusaders! The value of the losses is difficult to estimate. Maybe it is almost the same on both sides.
"Damn! These guys are so mean, they picked the right time to do it!"
Liu Yifei, who hurriedly rushed back to the top of the city, secretly glanced at the situation below the city, frowned and muttered in confusion.
At this point, Alfred didn't mention anything about visiting Sir Sinrag. The most important thing was to change the situation in front of him first.
"Holy shit! The fight has finally started! I've been impatient for a long time! What are you doing with your NPCs? Why don't you quickly open the city gate and let me go out to kill people? Hahaha~~~ It's all experience! Brothers!
Everyone will rush with me!"
Liu Yifei and others were observing the situation when they suddenly heard a roar of thunder from the ground in the City of Glory, which shocked several people around them and looked at each other.
"Idiot, an idiot who doesn't know how to write the word "death"..." Lei Hanxin, who was squatting carefully beside him, rolled his eyes and muttered.
It’s just that there may be many people who understand, but not many are willing to jump out and give pointers. And those who dare to roar and roar are mostly half-hearted characters, so for a while, many people started to follow the channel to respond.
Many of the previous invitations made by the macho man were complaining about NPCs, such as closing the city gate and not letting them out...
But at this time, Liu Yifei and others had no time to pay attention to the ignorant remarks of those brainless people, because just now, Liu Yifei suddenly received a system prompt saying that his leadership authority had been reviewed and his authority had been increased, and he had completed the previous tasks.
The campaign plot mission and subsequent campaign missions have been triggered.
How about the high quality of the soldiers? They are resolute and resolute! The situation is dangerous now. Alfred obviously has no time to write, so he directly confirmed Liu Yifei's leadership authority.
When Liu Yifei checked in the lord interface, he found that he was in a cave, which shocked him!
At present, in addition to Lord Alfred's personal guards, he actually has the authority to call on other defenders in the City of Glory, and his own military leadership authority is the same as that of the Lord of Glory City!
All of a sudden, Liu Yifei suddenly had direct ownership of half a medium-sized city in the system!
If he is harboring evil intentions at this time, as long as he takes advantage of the chaotic situation and moves his hands and feet, he might actually be able to eat a well-constructed medium-sized system city in one go!
The scale of the city in this system is incredible. Its population and construction are not comparable to those of a small plague city. It can be said to be an example of high risk and high reward!
Of course, since there has been no precedent for players taking advantage of the chaos to seize the leadership of a system city, Liu Yifei didn't know if it was really that simple or if there were other reasons, but he really didn't have this intention.
After roughly confirming his authority and the troops at hand, Liu Yifei immediately took action with the people around him. Everything else he said at the moment was false. He had to deal with the rebels outside before he could discuss anything else.
Except for Liu Yifei, who was left alone on the top of the city to observe the situation and take command, the others all returned to their own ranks in the square.
This wave of people had experienced several battles before. Although they were a little panicked when they first learned that the City of Glory was attacked, and some even couldn't bear the pressure and slipped away quietly, but in general,
There are still more than 80% of the people who stayed (hey, the manpower is getting less and less, and there is no way to control the deserters these days)
...), coupled with the elite cavalry, priests, griffin troops, and some of Liu Yifei's newly acquired troops from the City of Glory, it is more than enough to withstand this wave of attacks with the advantage of defending the city.
, not to mention the personal bodyguards of Lord Alfred, they are just fighting against the wind.
It's just that although the situation is not bad, Liu Yifei still has some doubts in his heart.
Now he can also query some data of Glory City to a certain extent. Judging from the city's various numerical values, this Glory City is indeed the best among them, but its military strength...
Didn't Sir Sinrag say that he hid a large number of elite troops in this city? Why didn't he see any special advanced military units?
It's just that it's really not the right time to chat, and Liu Yifei didn't go to talk to Lord Alfred...
The number of chaplains is relatively sufficient. This is also the unit that Liu Yifei has been trying to protect before, so he will not call it from Alfred. However, Liu Yifei's army suffered heavy casualties among archers, spearmen, and swordsmen before. Liu Yifei
Five thousand archers were directly mobilized from the city guard, and in conjunction with the priest regiment led by Nivel, they occupied the left wing of the city defense battle and started shooting at the enemy troops arrayed opposite.
Speaking of city defense battles, this was Liu Yifei's first time fighting, and it felt completely different from encounters in the wild!
If the two sides just shoot at each other like this, both sides will continue to lose troops and generals. It is basically a war of attrition and armaments war.
Whoever has sharper long-range firepower will have a slight advantage, and then continue to erode the opponent's strength.
But in the final analysis, there is still a process of attrition. Unless one side is armed to the teeth and the other side has a broken bow and a broken crossbow, not just one or two people will die in a fight.
Liu Yifei was accustomed to living a life of careful calculation. Every time he tried to maximize the effect of each force in his hand, he tried to eliminate his opponents by any means to reduce his own losses. He watched his troops die on the city walls one after another.
How can he bear it in his heart?
"No! It's a waste to continue fighting like this! We must rush out! Find a way to disrupt the enemy's rhythm!" Liu Yifei gritted his teeth.
