Chapter two hundred and seventy-two clean up the mess
"Mr. Xiao, we tried our best."
The two old men who had taken their wives away came back again, carrying a critical illness notice from their family members. The man who was full of expectations felt like he had been struck by lightning. He stood there in a daze, not knowing how to move.
"There was an accident in the experiment. When we wanted to connect Mrs. Ling's mind to the game world, something suddenly happened to Mrs. Ling's body, and her brain..."
"What did you say?" the man asked softly, "You guys agreed to lie to me, right? Where is she?"
Xiao Teng murmured softly, looking at the stretcher being lifted out of the ambulance, his eyes blurred for a moment.
"Mr. Xiao, please sign this form. We will try our best to make up for the subsequent compensation and the harm caused to you."
"Get out! Get out of here, all of you!"
The man suddenly waved his fists like crazy and put the old man who was talking to the ground. The latter groaned in pain and fell to the ground. Several nurses carrying a stretcher ran up and pulled the man aside. The old man on the ground was already old.
The old man was helped up.
"The patient's family has lost their minds. Should we call the police?"
"Forget it," the old man who was beaten stood up with the support of his colleagues and let out a long sigh, "We have decided to terminate this research. Mr. Xiao, I was the one who convinced you... I'm sorry."
Xiao Teng knelt down on the ground in pain. At this moment, he gave up the coldness and persistence of a man, clenching his fists and weeping in pain. The stretcher was carried to his side, and the people around him stood farther away.
After he vented the pain in his heart, he watched his beloved being covered with a white cloth, thinking that his originally stable life was broken by his own dissatisfaction.
There is sadness passing by in regret, and life is full of sighs of despair...
When the morning light spread across the streets and alleys of Orlandra, the elves' offensive that had been attacking for the entire night gradually came to an end. The river channel of the moat was blocked by corpses and overflowing with blood.
The city was filled with prayers, and the streets were filled with sad cries. The survivors burned the corpses of monsters, cursing constantly, and carried the once-familiar but unrecognizable corpses. The living people could only be confused.
Waiting for comfort from others.
The general who defended the city stood in front of the ruins of the city lord's palace, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes, his fists clenched tightly, his nails digging into his palms, and blood dripping down.
The blurry corpse on the ground was slowly covered with canvas, and a touch of white flowers was placed above the corpse. It bloomed with gentle beauty...
The surrounding soldiers looked solemnly at the ruins in front of them. Before last night, this was the magnificent City Lord's Mansion, which was the administrative center of Orlandra. However, this morning it was already full of broken arms and corpses of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
They were carried up one by one, and the people who fled from the city lord's mansion told everything that happened last night.
The players also looked at the sudden changes on the battlefield with blank faces. The primary battlefield that had just been opened actually lost its balance at this time.
The Orlandra defenders retreated to the city wall, and the elven armies of the Bayer Empire continued to attack. The battlefield turned into a city defense battle, and the quartermaster was also refreshed in the military camp in the city. The content of daily tasks has changed, but it still exists; except for last night
Most of the players who participated in the war thought this was a normal change to the system.
The adaptability of the players has been fully experienced here. Although most of the tasks of defending the city are difficult, as long as the players have tasks to do, experience and combat functions are more abundant than before, their enthusiasm for defending the city is also
Unexpected surge. The players of Ancient Langfa are suffering because the battle line has been pushed to the city of Alandra. Their supply route is too long, and returning to the city and back again is a luxury.
The original balanced confrontation has turned into one side defending the city and the other side besieging the city. The number of players in the Orlandra battlefield has not decreased but has increased. Many people also come here to participate in the war with the idea of changing their tastes.
If there is no accident, Orandra can hold on without being attacked by the elves, but the accident has already happened once. Who can guarantee that it will not happen a second time?
"Captain, I don't have any valuable replies."
"I know," Zijinglan stood in front of the window of the hotel room with some irritation, looking at the NPCs running around on the street, her irritation increased even more. "Let each group move freely. There is no need to dispatch a group to defend the city now.
"
"Okay," Lao Zheng bowed his head and walked out of the room, but after taking a few steps he stepped back, "Captain, what's the point of letting people post that post? Who is hiding something?"
"As I said yesterday, that wild boar is probably a player and is very familiar with us. Let the brothers in the group be careful not to be ambushed by that wild boar." Zijin Lan said, and Lao Zheng was stunned.
Then he walked out immediately.
"Player? Just don't think it's the tricks played by those people from the Three Kingdoms."
It was obvious that Lin Yutian didn't know what the Three Kingdoms were, and he was not willing to get involved in the direct fight between these players. The last warning he gave Zijin Lan was probably just a little irritating to the other party's constant pestering.
It was just that one time, and nothing substantial really happened... Well, I had killed her a few times before, but it was all due to the bravery of the year, not to mention the heroes.
So does this girl have a mixture of love and hate for her? The running wild boar chuckled, looking for fun. The Earth Dire Bear following behind him seemed to have lost weight while running, and the two Shadow Leopards also walked a little heavy.
They had been running all night, and at dawn they rushed out of the watershed by the Amulan River, and were now heading towards the high-level leveling area of Ancient Langfa.
The grassland has almost reached its end. The wild boar frowned and looked at it. He had already figured out the leveling area around Orlandra, but he could not find the location of the high-level monsters in this elven city. Moreover, his goal was not
Here, within the package of these third-level main cities, there are countless distant second-level main cities.
After players advance professionally, they will choose to go to the second-level main city, and the distribution of monsters around the second-level main city starts from level 35 and continues until the next professional level promotion stage.
The later the game gets, the farther away the leveling points that can fight monsters and upgrades are from the main city, and this highlights the role of player guild territories. Of course, this is an area that gamers are involved in. Lin Yutian has some understanding of this, but not very much.
interested.
He summoned the Touching Spirit, but Planci didn't come out. The old man probably went on strike again.
"This old bastard keeps nagging you when I don't want you to come out, and hides when you are really needed."
Lin Yutian muttered sadly. He just wanted to ask Plancy which way he should go at this time. "Stop first."
The Earth Fury Bear finally relaxed its breath, fell to the ground and gasped for breath. The two Shadow Leopards jumped warily to a nearby tree branch and began to look out for warning. Naturally, they were not brought out as decorations.
Lin Yutian recalled the route he ran, passing by the grassland, and then entering the jungle here. Not far to the south was the city where he fought with Orlanda. The walls were full of patrolling elves.
I suddenly thought for a moment whether I had spoiled Orlandra. When I was retreating last night, I heard the sound of thousands of horses galloping. It was probably the army on the grassland turning back. I don't know how the war situation will develop at this time.
Lin Yutian smiled indifferently. Although it was not his fault, he was still the initiator after all, and he still had some responsibility.
The worst-case scenario is that the city is destroyed and Orlandra ceases to exist, so what?
In front of the Orlandra Church, the corpses of dozens of knights and clergy were lined up. Edgar was lying on the ground with his muscles atrophied, sleeping quietly.
It is impossible to comment on the merits and demerits of the officiant in his life, but he made a great contribution to the Orlandra Church. Someone rang the bells and drums of the church, and the priests knelt in the sunshine in front of the door to pray. The believers prayed for these
The corpse was presented with small white flowers.
The clergy are active in the city. They comfort the suffering living people and send the souls of the dead to the Sky City with prayers. However, at this time, the few priests are only a drop in the bucket in the face of so many casualties. They can only dry their mouths.
Just continue to do your job.
"Help, save me!"
A faint shout suddenly came from the collapsed ruins on the side. A priest and a knight passing by heard the sound and looked over, beckoning passers-by and ran towards the ruins.
