Outside the west gate of Lingyun City is a gray plain. A large group of ghosts with black cloaks and empty eyes gathered outside the city, launching wave after wave of attacks on Lingyun City.
A group of hundreds of NPC troops are fighting against the ghost army to ensure the safety of the west gate.
The ghost does not need to land on its feet when walking, and moves very fast. In the blink of an eye, it has arrived in front of the NPC warrior. Its sharp fingers are natural weapons. A flash of red light quickly swept across the chest of the NPC warrior in Lingyun City. Ten shocking scratches were left on the breastplate of the NPC soldier.
The NPC warriors holding sharp blades resisted desperately, and some people kept falling in the face of the fierce attack of the ghost army. The situation was precarious, and it seemed that the ghost army was about to attack the bridge head of Ximen Bridge.
I was shocked. I didn't expect such a scene outside the west gate. No wonder the system repeatedly emphasized that the west of Lingyun City is definitely not a place that low-level players should go.
I quickly locked onto one of the ghosts and threw a reconnaissance spell over it to obtain the monster's attributes.
【Bloodthirsty Ghost】(Elite Monster)
Qi and blood: 200000
Attack:3745-4120
Defense:3000
Level:90
Skill: Bloodthirsty Attack
…
The level of these bloodthirsty ghosts is only level 90, but their attack power is higher than that of the level 95 Flower Bee. The Flower Bee is already recognized as having the highest attack power among the level 95 elite monsters, but these bloodthirsty ghosts are obviously stronger than them. It's much sharper, and it's really not something that ordinary players can deal with.
Moreover, the bloodthirsty ghost is so fast that it is absolutely impossible for remote players to fly a kite.
I felt a little nervous and started to give up. I thought it would be more cost-effective for me to continue to go to the Burning Plains to farm and refine the orcs.
At this time, I suddenly discovered that the commander of this unit was actually a young woman, West City Captain Nymeria. Nymeria took the lead, riding a white horse and standing on the front line with a rapier in hand. , the thin sword in his hand kept swinging, piercing the chest of one ghost after another, killing them.
By chance, Nymeria turned her head inadvertently and saw me standing on the West Gate Bridge. She immediately saw the emblem of the Lingyun City Adventurer's Guild shining on my left arm.
Nymeria quickly killed a ghost in front of her with a sword and said loudly: "Young adventurer, you are here to help us, right?"
Then without waiting for my answer, she cheered quickly: "Great, finally an adventurer has taken the initiative to help us, sisters, cheer up, the moment of victory is coming soon,"
Only then did I discover that more than half of the soldiers in this army were women.
At the same time, I received a system prompt.
"Ding~,"
System prompt: West City Captain Nymeria invites you to fight side by side with her to guard the safety of the West City Gate. I wonder if you are willing. If you successfully kill monsters in the battle to guard the West City Gate, you will have a chance to drop quest items. Collect all of them. A large number of quest items can be exchanged for a large amount of reputation points from NPCs, and additional friendship will be gained from NPCs.
I can't leave now. Reputation is definitely a good thing in the Honor game. When I bought the No. 4 store, I required that the reputation must reach 200,000, otherwise I wouldn't be able to buy it even if I had money.
Buying a shop requires so much reputation. It is conceivable that in the future, fighting for the gang territory to become a city leader, building a gang city, etc. will definitely require higher reputation.
Now there is an opportunity in front of me, which can not only grind monsters and level up, but also earn a lot of reputation points, so why don't I do it.
Not only do I have to do this myself, but I also have to invite my friends to come with me.
"Yes, young and beautiful captain, it is my honor to fight alongside you," I said, quickly summoning Xiao Hei to join the battle.
I hid behind Nymeria and quickly raised the Ice Dragon Halberd to activate the Ice Dragon Sting skill on the weapon. There were bursts of dragon roars, and suddenly a 20-meter-long frost spear light was like the breath of an ice dragon, quickly raging out. , monsters everywhere they went were shaken and staggered, and damage numbers exceeding 15,000 flew up from their foreheads.
Xiao Hei was even more sharp, and a shower of needles was thrown out, and the bloodthirsty ghosts in a large area in front were hit one after another, especially the bloodthirsty ghosts in the front row who bore the brunt of the attack. Their bodies were filled with poisonous needles, and their vitality and blood suddenly dropped to the lowest point.
I took advantage of the situation and sent another Ice Flame Slash, instantly killing more than twenty bloodthirsty ghosts.
Then, the Ice Dragon Halberd gun in my hand continued to shine, specifically looking for those bloodthirsty ghosts with residual blood, and snatching the chance of the final blow from the NPC. Xiaohei, under my dual-line operation, also frequently targeted those bloodthirsty ghosts with residual blood. The bloodthirsty ghost kills the monster and steals the monster experience right from under the eyes of the NPC.
Although the attack power of these ghosts is very high, their defense power and health are not very high. Therefore, after I, especially Xiao Hei, joined the battle, the pressure on the NPCs was suddenly reduced a lot.
As a large number of bloodthirsty ghosts died, my experience points continued to rise. The speed of gaining experience was not slower than that of farming and refining orcs in the Burning Plains. However, what was more distressing was that after the ghosts in front were killed, the ones behind them quickly followed. As a result, I had no chance to pick up the gold coins, equipment and quest items that exploded on the ground. I could only watch them being trampled by the monsters swarming from behind, and it was heartbreaking.
Now I don’t dare to fight directly on the front line like Nymeria. Without the assistance of a priest, rushing to the front line will only lead to death. The facts of countless blood tell us that it is important to act bravely, but we I admire the kind of real heroes who act bravely and know how to protect their own lives at the same time.
However, this situation did not last long, and soon Lin Jieran led a group of my friends to accept my call and rush out of the west gate.
Yaxin and Candengren were still standing on the Ximen Bridge, and they directly summoned group attack magic skills from a distance to participate in the attack. Lin Jieran, Yu Jian Xunxiang, Yun Yun and other warriors quickly rushed to the front line and quickly entered the battle.
In the crowd behind me, I saw Wanxi, Shiqi, Wan Xia and several other familiar figures of priests, so I immediately became emboldened and quickly turned around from behind Nymeria, squeezing away the people who had been standing next to her. An NPC warrior who fights alongside her.
Nymeria seemed very satisfied with my current performance, and said with a slight smile: "You seem to have suddenly become brave,"
I replied: "Nonsense, didn't you see that I have backup now?"
In fact, I didn't tell her that there is another advantage to standing on the front line, that is, you can pick up the drops on the ground at any time. In fact, I have wanted to do this for a long time, but the conditions did not allow it before. These ghosts can kill two thousand of me in one go. My energy and blood are so weak that I will die quickly without the help of a priest to treat me.
Nymeria looked behind her and realized that dozens of adventurers suddenly appeared on the scene, "You called them all here,"
"They are all my brothers and sisters,"
…
At this time, Lin Jingran quickly rushed to my side and stepped out of War Trample without saying a word. The Queen Bee was hovering above her head. After careful care in the past few days, the Queen Bee's level has exceeded level 60. It has grown to the size of a pumpkin and should be able to participate in battles.
Under the command of Lin Jieran's thoughts, the Queen Bee flew buzzingly above the head of a ghost. Before the ghost could react, she quickly swooped down and struck the unlucky ghost with a venomous sting on its face. Come up with a damage figure of more than 3,000 points.
There is no way, the level gap between the two sides is too big after all, it is very rare for the Queen of Flowers to be able to deal 3000+ damage.
After we joined, the situation at the scene immediately changed greatly, and the offensive of those bloodthirsty ghosts was finally completely suppressed.
It seems that these bloodthirsty ghosts do not look like an organized legion. They probably decided to launch an attack on Lingyun City privately because they were too busy to do so in the city. This action did not receive the approval and support from their superiors. .
Soon we were able to organize a counterattack, keep pushing the formation forward, and gradually drive those bloodthirsty ghosts out of the city gate area.
"Thank you, brave adventurers. If it weren't for your heroic and fearless performance, this time the kingdom's army might have been alerted to come to clean up the situation. The main force of the kingdom's army is fighting a decisive battle with those hateful undead at Black Blood Castle. I I really don’t want to cause them any more trouble," Nymeria said after reading me.
From the npc's words of thanks, I heard two very important messages: first, Nymeria is preparing to withdraw with her men; second, Lingyun City may make big moves recently, especially the second This information is very important to us. If Lingyun City really plans to launch a large-scale operation against the undead of the Evil Alliance, it will definitely need the assistance of players, and we should prepare for this in advance.
Sure enough, the next moment, Nymeria had already ordered her men to withdraw their troops and return to the city. However, I was not worried that I could not find a place to submit the mission items in my hand. As the captain of the West City, Nymeria's main responsibility is to protect the security of the West City area. He should be active near Ximen Square during the day.
But I suddenly became curious about their army, so I asked: "Why would the Lord of the City give you such an important task of guarding the West Gate to a group of female soldiers?"
When I asked this question, Nymeria's eyes were a little sad: "Actually, it was my father who served as the captain of West City. Later, those evil undead learned that we were going to attack Blackblood Castle, so they sent troops to sneak around. Our army took advantage of the emptiness in the city to attack Lingyun City, and my father and many of his subordinates died in that battle,"
"The country is employing people, so I took over my father's responsibility to continue to protect Xicheng. Many of my sisters, like me, temporarily took over the weapons from their fathers, and our brothers are now here Fighting near Blackblood Castle,"
"Your father raised a good daughter," I said to Nymeria.
"No," Nymeria shook her head hurriedly: "I am not a good daughter of my father. I have not been able to find his body until my father died."
