Chapter 307 The boss arrives, the mysterious snake
The inner city, which is only tens of thousands of square meters, cannot accommodate a team of tens of thousands of people.
What's more, there are many horses and various mounts.
With so many people pouring into the inner city, it would be difficult to even cross the street, let alone organize an attack.
Now Zong Shen's territory seemed to have become a rural market, with people chatting and communicating, setting up stalls and trading, and some lords had disputes directly among the crowds, and started quarreling in public.
Fortunately, everyone is in friendly mode and cannot fight and harm each other, otherwise the situation will be chaotic.
"It's not okay to squeeze everyone into the city."
Zong Shen quickly understood the seriousness of the problem. In this situation, they were not here to support the battle, but to go to the market. In such a chaotic situation, it was impossible to organize these lords to form an effective fighting force.
The final battlefield had to be placed on the periphery of the territory. Jiang Yi also discovered this and came to Zong Shen's side and shouted with some concern.
"Sir, I think we should direct some of the lords to go outside the city."
"The regional boss is coming soon, we can't continue like this."
The surroundings were so noisy that Jiang Yi had to shout loudly to make Zong Shen hear her.
Zong Shen nodded after hearing this. He naturally understood what to do now.
"There is really no room inside the city. There are tens of meters of open space from outside the city in four directions to the trench positions, which can accommodate thousands of people."
"Take a few people and go to the outside of the city to provide some guidance. The new lords who have come to support you will be placed outside the city first."
"I am in charge of this part of the city."
At this time, there are still more than twenty minutes before the arrival of the area boss.
The city is so crowded that even Zong Shen's own men, let alone these reinforcements, can hardly exert their combat effectiveness. In this situation, there is no other choice but to evacuate as soon as possible.
Otherwise, once a group of monsters arrives, it will cause chaos such as stampedes and crowding.
The current scene is actually very similar to those unorganized and undisciplined groups of tens of thousands of cave monsters.
Chaos and disorder will not only eliminate the advantage of numbers, but also cause a lot of trouble.
Jiang Yi took the order and divided the legion members he brought into four groups. Each group was divided into one direction. He squeezed out of the crowd and went to different directions for guidance.
Zong Shen found Luna, Vereesa, Mariel and others in the small courtyard.
Everyone else was crowded in the crowd. Fortunately, these supporting lords could not open any buildings in Zong Shen's territory, nor could they destroy any buildings. All the kobolds and farmers hid in the houses.
This scene is really terrifying, with all kinds of noises coming from all around.
The sounds of quarrels, chats, discussions, walking, collisions, all kinds of sounds gathered together, really no different from a noisy market.
"We need to quickly guide these lords."
"The city only needs a maximum of three to four thousand warriors to protect the surrounding areas."
"If there are so many people crowded together, it will affect the battle for a while."
“Everybody take action!”
Zong Shen said to Luna and the others, and at the same time began to mobilize the soldiers of the exploration team and combat team, and took action at the same time to persuade the supporting lords to leave.
As for the kobolds, forget about them. They are too short in stature, and they belong to a foreign race whose appearance is very different from humans. The most important thing is that most kobolds cannot speak human language. Letting them take action will only make them angry.
These lords were resistant.
Zong Shen's order was quickly arranged, and everyone began to take action, wandering among the lords, and patiently persuading and persuading.
Zong Shen was not idle either. He directly found the Nordic bearded commander of the [Desire Legion] and Medina, the commander of the [Light Chaser Legion]. In a few words, he persuaded them to take the initiative to go to the open space outside the northern city gate.
Standby.
Then he began to persuade and persuade other scattered lords who gathered in small groups to leave.
In fact, these enterprising lords were not stupid. They could all see that Zong Shen's inner city could not accommodate so many people, and they all cooperated and followed Zong Shen's request to the open spaces outside the city in all directions.
Only here can their warriors form their formations, and they can hardly find a place to stay within the city, let alone position themselves for battle.
The core purpose of their support is to gain as many benefits as possible in the final challenge.
Rather than come here for a chat conference.
Most of the lords who were persuaded to leave were very cooperative. They brought at least six or seven warriors, and as many as ten or twenty warriors. The lords who were still coming one after another were directly guided to
outside the city.
Under this situation, the number of people in the city was quickly emptied by less than half. Currently, there are still six to seven thousand people gathered in the city. This number is still considered high.
There are some lords who are difficult to convince. Even if Zong Shen is the host and his hard power is here, those lords refuse to cooperate. These people all have the same idea, although they all know that they cannot exert effective combat effectiveness by crowding in the city.
, only outside the city can you have the opportunity to fight those cave monsters head-on.
Moreover, the outside of the city is actually within the coverage of territorial defense buildings.
However, only the city is the safest place, so some lords are unwilling to cooperate.
Zong Shen had no choice but to attack each other in friendly mode, and there were many lords who had this idea. Zong Shen had no numerical advantage, so he could only let them stay in the city.
A number of six to seven thousand people is generally much more relaxed than a number of more than ten thousand people.
When the final challenge begins, if they want to get a share of the pie, they will definitely have to find a suitable position to participate in the battle, so Zong Shen is too lazy to persuade the remaining lords to leave.
He began to gather his soldiers outside the North City Gate.
Except for the wolf cavalry and farmers who were ambushing outside the territory, almost all of Zong Shen's men were present.
The largest number is the kobolds, which are roughly divided into kobold warriors, kobold slingers, and kobold prophets. They are divided into three queues under the leadership of the kobold chief Dutra, with the warriors standing at the front and the ones at the rear.
Are the kobold slingers and kobold prophets.
The exploration team, patrol team and combat team under Zong Shen also stood at the front, while long-range units such as mages and shooters stood at the rear.
As for Zong Shen himself, after settling his troops outside the north gate, he walked into the territory.
The surrounding lords also kept their positions dispersed, leaving the wolf cavalry and the melee infantry in front.
It is said that strength in numbers is not unreasonable. After so many people gathered together, everyone felt a lot more confident. This was definitely the largest collective action of the regional lords since the launch of the campaign.
There were two to three thousand people inside and outside the city in each direction, and there were lords coming from further away.
Zong Shen estimated that at least two thousand lords would gradually participate in this final challenge, which accounted for about a quarter of the remaining lords in the region.
Due to various circumstances, such as insufficient number of mounts or concerns about risks, most lords would choose to stay safely in their territories. This is a trend that can be inferred.
Unless the lord system compulsorily requires all lords to participate in the event, or this event is related to the life and death of all lords, otherwise people will be divided and it is impossible to see a scene in which all the people participate.
For most lords whose development tendency is prudent, success means profit.
There is nothing wrong with seeking stability, and of course there is nothing wrong with seeking profits from risks.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, the sky began to light up. Although there were still dark clouds overhead, the darkness had left the scene as promised, and a subtitle appeared in front of all the lords.
[The final challenge officially begins]
[Regional Challenge Boss Arrives]
[Countdown: 6 hours: 00 minutes: 00 seconds]
This time, there was no time-stop effect when the subtitles appeared.
The ground beneath everyone's feet began to tremble slightly.
"Boom!"
From the north of the territory, there was an earth-shaking loud noise.
Massive amounts of sand and dust swept away from the final landing place about one kilometer away from the territory.
A huge shadow appeared in the sand, which could be clearly seen even from a distance of a thousand meters.
At this time, more than 150,000 cave monsters have gathered at the final descent point.
There are no signs of these monsters starting yet, and they seem to be waiting for something.
The huge dust has not dispersed for a long time, and seems to be making its final preparations.
The direction where the fighting first started was not to the north of where the place of descent was.
But from the south and west, the cave monsters attracted from these two directions have begun to enter the range of the territorial defense buildings.
Before Zong Shen left the city to wait for orders, Marier had already begun to control the [Giant Crossbow Tower] in the city, using [Sniper Mode] to observe the surroundings, especially in the west direction. Soon, a large-scale enemy with a population of more than 30,000 people appeared.
The group of cave monsters began to enter the range of four thousand meters.
Therefore, she also began to control the [Giant Crossbow Tower] with a super long range to launch attacks.
As for the Tier 4 [Giant Turret], another defensive building with an ultra-long range in the territory, Zong Shen personally controls it. This is why he does not stay on the front line.
[Giant turret] has a range of 3,500 meters, and there is also [shooter mode] that can have a bird's-eye view of artillery fire. This perspective has unparalleled observation advantages, even better than [sniper mode] for observing the overall situation.
, because the observation range of the top-down perspective is large, it is more suitable for global observation.
Zong Shen has charged 15,000 points of magic energy into the giant turret. Every time the [giant turret] launches a bombardment, it needs to consume 150 points of magic energy. These 15,000 points of magic energy are enough for the giant turret to launch 100 magic energy bombardments.
He is currently observing the dynamics around him in [Gunner Mode]. In addition to the west of the territory, there is also a large group of monsters in the south that is gradually approaching, while the monster groups in the east are all converging towards the landing point.
After observing for a while, he moved his perspective to the sky above the descent point in the north of the territory. The place was shrouded in sand and dust, and he could only see a huge figure stirring and entangled.
The sand and dust were swept up by this huge figure. Just looking at the shadow alone, this guy's figure was one or two hundred meters tall.
I think this guy must be the regional challenge boss.
Time is passing by, and a few minutes have passed in the blink of an eye. This guy has not launched an attack yet, but is just stirring up the sand and dust in place.
Sure enough, as mentioned before in the announcement, this guy has low attack intentions.
If this delay continues, it will affect everyone's output progress.
Zong Shen locked it in his view and decided to fire the first shot!
A distance of more than a thousand meters is within the range coverage of the [Giant Turret].
Zong Shen locked it and directly chose to launch it!
"boom!"
The fourth-generation giant magic rune cannon on the top of the giant turret roared.
No smoke was emitted, only a basketball-sized magic energy shell emitting lavender light was launched with a roar.
It attracted everyone's attention, and everyone knew that the strong Zong Shen chose to attack first.
The magic energy shells whizzed towards the landing point, dragging a lavender trajectory.
Falling into the dust, everyone in this direction held their breath, waiting for the result.
"Boom!!!"
There was a loud noise, the ground trembled slightly, and the shock wave of the explosion appeared, washing away the sand and dust.
There wasn't much flame or smoke in the shock wave, only lavender energy spilled out.
The killing range of the magic cannon is a radius of thirty meters, which is roughly a circular area with a diameter of 60 meters.
The violent shock wave directly pushed away the sand and dust, and a dense area of damage value appeared. This bombardment not only injured the regional boss, but also knocked down a large number of surrounding cave monsters to the ground.
At the same time, it also allowed everyone to see the full picture of the regional boss.
"hiss!"
Everyone took a breath of cold air.
"Snake... such a big snake..."
All the lords who saw this scene exclaimed.
This news also spread at the speed of light to the ears of the lords in other directions of the territory.
If groups of monsters hadn't started coming from all directions, the lords would have been eager to rush north to take a closer look.
That's right, the final boss challenge is a huge and terrifying snake with a ferocious appearance.
At this time, a lord took out a rune mechanical goshawk and let it fly. The goshawk flapped its wings and quickly flew to the landing point.
At the same time, a projection light screen appeared over the territory, showing the goshawk's perspective.
The rune mechanical goshawk was very fast and flew over the terrifying snake in no time.
The complete appearance of the big snake was also projected into the sky above the territory through the goshawk's perspective.
This big snake has black scales all over its body, its head is full of edges and corners, and there are huge snake wings on both sides like a cobra. There are wisps of black air coming out from all over its body, and its two eyes are like two scarlet red ones.
lantern.
All the lords raised their heads in unison and looked at the projection above the territory.
