"Commander! It's not good! The captain and deputy captain of the second team of the Southwest Front Army are dead. Now the second team has lost its command and the team is completely in chaos! The chaos continues to expand! The eastern army also encountered the enemy's attack
Sneak attack from behind, urgent need for reinforcements!"
"Are the captain and deputy of the first team of the Southwest Army still alive?"
"They're all still alive."
"The command of the first team will be handed over to the deputy team, and the former captain of the first team will temporarily take over the command of the second team. He will be the leader for a while! The resurrected people are all coming over. If we persist for twenty minutes, we will win!"
"Where is the request for reinforcements from the Eastern Army?"
"Let the third reserve team out!"
After ending the call, a middle-aged player with medium-long blond hair rubbed his increasingly painful forehead.
As the supreme commander of the battlefield, he and his team did not participate in the battle on the front line. Instead, they watched the movements of the entire battlefield from the hilltop in front of them with a relatively wide view.
But nearly twenty minutes after the war started, he could already feel the increasing pressure on the front line!
This blond-haired player's ID name is "Hammer Cantor", which is quite an unusual name in a place like the Tower Clan where there are many mages.
In fact, not only does Kante have an unusual name, but his profession is also quite unusual.
Arcane Knight.
The wandering knight who has mastered the powerful spell-casting attack ability has a unique hidden profession, or in other words, this is one of the "ancient professions" that has been announced in the game.
Just like the skeleton warrior from the ghost tribe that Liu Yifei once encountered, and the zombie warrior transformed from Godzilla.
The Arcane Knight is also a hidden profession that will be officially opened to players only at level three.
However, as a pioneer, Hammer Canter was lucky enough to complete a series of pre-hidden tasks, and then, like Xuelan, he successfully found a job in the second-level stage, a powerful profession that can only be mastered by players in the third level.
!
With the acquisition of hidden professions, Hammer Kanter has acquired a large number of high-quality academics and novel skills, which also makes his personal strength soar around this area!
As the game progresses, each region basically has its own strong person. Generally speaking, it is a person whose personal strength has been recognized by most people in a certain area and who is quite famous.
Heavy Hammer Kanter was not only well-known by players, but in the eyes of local NPCs, he was also a guy with good potential who was worthy of training. Therefore, Kanter eventually became the city guard squadron leader of a local NPC city lord, doing what he usually does.
The most common system task is to lead your own guard squadron to patrol around the city.
For Kanter, leading fifty well-armed city defense guards on patrol every day is his most glorious moment!
Kanter is not a very crazy United Coin player. The money he spends in the game every month is about two to three hundred United Coins, so he does not have his own guild or mercenary group, and his own strength is only average to above average.
grade.
Being able to soar into the sky and obtain such honors all comes from Kanter's tenacity and hard work.
Therefore, he is fully qualified to show his pride and raise his head high every time he patrols, accepting the envious or jealous gazes of the players on the roadside.
After obtaining official status, Kanter naturally took advantage of the "policy benefits" and began to gain a certain degree of power in the city. He even painstakingly created his first player guild and purchased items for the guild.
bought a city property.
You know, nowadays, player organizations with five to six hundred people are not uncommon anymore, but if you want to buy a property in a system city instead of renting it... the requirements are not low~
What is unexpected is that Kanter's small guild is actually quite popular among some players!
These people are basically the same as Kanter. They spend a small amount of money playing games every month. They are not as powerful as professional players or players who spend a lot of money, but they are not as powerful as ordinary players who don't spend money.
Advantages.
A guild composed of such a group of people still has some strength, and since Kanter has the official status of "Patrol Squadron Leader", even if some large player organizations in the surrounding area are not very happy with him, they will not dare to attack him easily.
If they take action, they can only allow Kanter to absorb manpower and develop their power on the land that originally belonged to them.
Just when Kanter thought that the game life would be so calm and develop steadily, the camp war broke out!
In the early days of the war, Kanter and his players' guild could be said to be the first players to feel the war atmosphere of the game!
Since he has an official status, Kanter will be assigned various system tasks by his superior city lord from time to time. With the outbreak of the war, he receives more and more tasks every day!
While most of the other Tower Clan players have not yet realized that the war is approaching and are still playing the same normal game leisurely as in the past, Kanter has already embarked on the journey with his partners and comrades.
On the battlefield, be active on the front line and behind the enemy's rear!
The feeling of fighting fiercely on the battlefield, surviving successfully, and gaining victory is unforgettable~
At the beginning, a small number of players in the guild were a little bit dissatisfied with being directly involved in NPC wars. Every time a battlefield mission was assigned, these people either left with excuses, or simply stopped going online.
But the benefits of being on the battlefield are obvious!
There are three additional opportunities for non-destructive resurrection every day, settings for quickly gaining experience and military merit, and the convenience of exchanging high-quality equipment and supplies through battlefield military merit!
The war has only passed a week, and those battlefield madmen have already opened up a clear gap with other players who were originally on the front line!
They use powerful potions that instantly restore everything, wear excellent-level suits and equipment launched after the version update, and as honor suits, there are one or two additional powerful amplification effects. Their levels are higher and their skills are stronger, and even some advanced ones
Alchemists can already make powerful war puppets (for players) as powerful as gargoyles!
After clearly feeling the benefits of playing battlefields and completing system tasks, the atmosphere of Kanter's entire guild changed!
Everyone no longer complains about receiving a difficult mission behind enemy lines, no longer complains about the longer and longer online time every day, and no longer complains about not being able to go out with other non-guild friends to fight monsters and level up.
On the contrary, everyone puts more energy on the cooperation between companions, the running-in on the battlefield, and thinking about the interactive relationship between NPCs and players.
Even when there was an occasional break, the players in the guild would sit together in small groups in the city tavern and chat.
At this time, the gap between players becomes obvious!
Others still have a mess of patchwork equipment, but the members of Kanter and his "Hammer Sparks" guild all have excellent sets!
From a distance, the scene of more than a dozen players with identical powerful suits sitting together and chatting is very attractive!
And due to their long time on the battlefield, the strength and coordination of the members of Hammer Sparks have increased sharply!
Often when outsiders have conflicts with them, an unkind gaze from a member of Hammer Sparks can make the other party feel stagnant! And if the opponent still doesn't know how to advance or retreat and stalks or even escalates to a fight, Hammer Sparks'
People can often knock down their opponents with just one charge!
The time before and after was only about a week, and the changes were so huge. How could other players around me not be surprised and envious?
Ever since, the name "Hammer Sparks" suddenly became popular!
More and more people began to visit the trust relationships and ask if they could join the guild, or if the guild had a mercenary group attached to it, or if there were any plans to join forces.
Anyway~
This war is an unparalleled opportunity for Kanter!
Later, as the scale of the war expanded and the situation became increasingly severe.
The NPCs of the Tower Clan also began to interact and cooperate with players more and more deeply.
At this time, battlefield authority has been opened to the entire player group, but Kanter, as one of the first collaborators with official status, still has a strong advantage!
The biggest difference between NPCs and players is discipline.
Even if an NPC officer gives an order, even if it means committing suicide, his NPC mercenary subordinates will carry it out without hesitation! It is this kind of uncompromising execution of orders that makes the NPC troops much more effective on the battlefield than smart.
Players who have the means are powerful!
One-on-one, players versus mercenaries, the player wins 100% of the time, ten versus ten, if nothing else, the player with more flexible tactics and more methods will win.
But if it's ten thousand versus ten thousand, or even one hundred thousand versus one hundred thousand, the result of the battle will undoubtedly be a disastrous defeat for the player!
The difference is simply that the larger the team, the easier it is for the player's management to become confused, and the worse the team's tactical execution is.
Naturally, NPCs from the Tower Clan will not make such mistakes.
Therefore, they have selected some agents among players in various regions as "general commanders" to uniformly manage the player group and prevent them from causing chaos on the battlefield or hindering the normal operations of NPC troops.
These selected "general commanders" are the first batch of players to enter the battlefield at the beginning, based on the number of tasks they have taken during the entire process, their degree of completion, their own attendance rate, discipline and other factors.
.
The performance record of Hammer Canter and his Hammer Spark Guild is very good, so they have become the core managers in a war zone, and Canter himself has become a battlefield for players in the surrounding provinces.
The person with the most power!
Organize a battlefield legion, manage all participating players, distribute supplies, distribute tasks, and coordinate NPC army actions...
With the good performance in the past, Kanter really soared into the sky this time! Moreover, due to the subsequent performance was equally good, he even regained a previously captured system city in a cooperative battle with the NPC army. Kanter
I was awarded two pieces of king equipment in one go!
Kanter today has become a completely different person than he was more than a month ago!
He is more calm and calm, his commanding skills are becoming more and more mature, and his personal strength is constantly rising like a triple jump!
Today's Kanter, even if he simply goes to that station, the confidence revealed in him makes him look completely different from the passers-by around him!
Although he does not yet have the unique aloof temperament of those who have been in high positions for a long time, Kanter believes that as long as he continues to work hard, he will surely gain more glory!
In this mysterious and wonderful magical world, as long as you really work hard, you will definitely have generous rewards waiting for you!
It is with this belief that Kanter and his partners devoted themselves to the war with more enthusiasm than before!
And this time, they accepted a very challenging combat mission!
Act as the main force in the battle to recapture a medium-sized city!
Due to the defeat in the early war, the Tower Clan is in urgent need of a chance to adjust and take a breather.
The successful sneak attack by the human support force allowed the kings of the Tower Clan to see a turning point in the war!
As long as they can seize this opportunity and clear or drive away the remaining bottom on the ground before the enemy's reinforcements arrive, the Tower Clan will be able to regain all the lost ground and rescue all the people in the occupied areas!
It is precisely for this reason that all war zones are now attacking with all their strength, changing their previous strategy of avoiding the enemy's edge and actively seeking a decisive battle with the enemy on all fronts!
However, due to the large-scale mobilization of troops, some lines of defense are always neglected or even sacrificed.
For example, on the not-very-important front line where Kanter is located, all the main troops, such as the Army Division troops, the main monster troops, and the Snake Girl troops were mobilized.
And if it weren't for the fact that several senior NPC generals in this war zone also have their own elite personal guards, perhaps they wouldn't even be able to see a seventh-level giant mercenary around them!
The troublesome thing is that although the troops in this war zone have been transferred to other places, when other war zones are intensively organizing continuous active offensives, it cannot be said that this is the only place that is content with the status quo, right?
Therefore, after discussion among the senior NPC generals, they decided to mobilize the enemy's elite main force through a continuous luring operation. Then, the player's troops would serve as the main force of the frontal attack and forcibly capture a medium-sized city!
The main process of the battle is as Liu Yifei and others have seen before, using "bait" troops to attract the attention of the enemy patrol, and then using "pseudo" reinforcements to attract the enemy's heroic generals and some of the main elites.
The difference is that the number of "bait" troops far exceeds the one Liu Yifei and others saw.
In fact, a total of seven "baits" were released around the attack target, and six of them successfully landed on big fish!
If the enemy's main force is a reinforcement patrol, then the goal of the Tower Clan's troops is to maintain the battle situation and then slowly retreat, in order to hold back the enemy's main force.
If what is finally attracted is just an enemy general or a group of high-level elite troops as Liu Yifei and others saw, then they will be eaten by the tower side!
Eat one bite from the left and one bite from the right, and the combined losses are definitely more than the dungeon side can bear, which currently lacks additional soldiers!
Once they can no longer sit still, the enemy will also launch a large-scale search and wipe out the intruding troops of the Tower Clan.
As long as the enemy's army is dispatched, it is time for the player's troops to perform!
This combat plan is the first attempt to use player troops as the core siege force! It can be said that compared to the previous plan where player troops were only used as supporting troops, this time the players play a much more important role!
Correspondingly, the incentives and compensation given by NPCs are also much better!
Before the war actually started, the system had already opened the military merit exchange license for "Full Compound Potion".
This is the highest-grade powerful potion that players have ever seen so far!
The cooling time is half an hour, but it can restore all the status of all non-boss units below level five at once! It can truly resurrect on the spot with full health and full status!
Although it is valuable, with one potion requiring 10,000 points of military merit, there is no upper limit for redemption!
Some players who have accumulated a large amount of military merit in the past and have no time to spend in the future can even redeem four or five in one go!
It is really hard to estimate the value of such a powerful potion that is so extremely valuable that players have never even heard of its production formula. If it is sold on a consignment platform~
Anyway, if it's less than two or three hundred United Coins, no one will probably be willing to sell it. This kind of potion, even if it is used by players at the fourth or fifth level, is definitely a life-saving medicine in the bottom of the box!
However, although there are many benefits, the difficulty of war is well known.
At the very beginning, NPC gave Kanter an exaggerated upper limit of 50,000 people for his battle group plan!
This time, not only Kanter was shocked, but also the entire Hammer Sparks crowd!
Fifty thousand player troops are all managed by them...
Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps!
In the end, Kanter attracted nearly 20,000 players. Although it was not even half of the planned number, this was already the limit of his ability! It can be said that all the war madmen around him, even those who were just interested in going to the battlefield
Everyone has been absorbed by him.
After all, Kanter's authority is much higher this time, and he can provide many more post-war promised rewards. Coupled with the compensation under the system rules, it is enough to attract a large number of players to participate in the mission.
In the end, 20,000 people were divided by Kanter into four fronts, east, west, south, and north, as well as a total of three reserve groups of 1,000 squadrons, a siege equipment unit of 2,000 squadrons, and a supply transport unit of 1,000 squadrons.
.
For this war, the NPC side also gave Kanter a lot of heavy siege equipment. This was also Kanter's first time to observe these large-scale equipment with astonishing statistics at close range. Their lethality was far beyond Kanter's imagination!
With the assistance of these equipment, the difficulty of siege has been reduced a lot~
However, the trouble is that the loss of these siege equipment will eventually be counted on Kanter. For every additional machine lost, Kanter will have to discount the corresponding military merit. If it is not enough, the entire Hammer Spark will be deducted.
If the total military merit of the guild is not enough, it will have to lose money in turn...
Of course, if the siege is successful, the military merit points obtained will also be huge! So this is a big gamble for everyone in the Hammer Spark~
Although at the beginning of the war, Kanter had already held a meeting with the entire player management, fully analyzed the difficulty of the war, and pointed out various difficulties that would arise during the battle.
But in the end the difficulty of the battle exceeded their expectations!
The enemy may have only sent a few elite troops back to support the main city, but for the player troops, these are already an unacceptable pressure!
The powerful attacks of those Minotaurs are beyond the reach of players. Medusa's poisonous arrows are like poisonous snakes coming out of their holes, harvesting the lives of players with residual health again and again. And the most terrifying thing is those manticore troops!
Every attack of these animal-shaped gods of death flying in mid-air will trigger a series of chaos among the players!
Players exclaimed to avoid the fangs and claws of these aerial monsters, but all dodges proved to be in vain! As long as the target is targeted by the manticore, almost no one can escape the fate of being killed by the lion's mouth...
...
As soon as the enemy's reinforcements appear, the losses of the player's team will immediately increase!
In order to make up for the losses, Kanter has already released the two reserve teams in his hands! And just now, after ending the call with the liaison officer from the front line, Kanter has no choice but to order the last reserve team in his hands to set off!
In addition, in the small mountain col behind Kanter, there are only siege equipment troops and logistics supply troops, such as baggage troops. Although there are still nearly 5,000 people, these troops cannot move. Once at this time,
Loss, the problem behind will be even bigger~
Troubled by the difficult battle situation, Kanter was sweating profusely at some point, and his usually bright blond hair was stuck to his forehead indiscriminately, losing all its former luster.
If it weren't for the war horse under him that made Kanter still look so heroic, I'm afraid he would be more like a wounded soldier who retreated from the front line in panic.
And just when Kanter ended the call and watched the entire battle nervously, an even more terrifying scene appeared!
Under his stunned gaze, five familiar yet terrifying figures slowly rose from the besieged city!
A black body, densely covered with dark and shiny scales, sharp and huge claws, huge wings that can move the wind and clouds...
Black dragon!
The powerful black dragon!
Five heads appeared at once!
On this small battlefield without Titans to protect them and powerful heroes to reinforce them, the five black dragons are five gods that are so powerful that no one can defeat them!
They will be much more terrifying killers than those flying manticores! After all, a manticore can only kill two or three people in one attack, but if it is a black dragon's attack... twenty or thirty people can be killed.
If one could just carry it through, it would already be a small price to thank God and worth paying for the wish~
At this moment, Kanter seemed to have seen the end of his failure, as well as the horrific scene of all the players being massacred by force! Darkness came so silently...
