When a flood comes, every drop of water can only feel the scene in a small area around you.
From the perspective of an ordinary tourist militia, everything happening around you is like a scene in a magical epic war movie. It is vast, shocking, and full of spectacles that are a visual and auditory feast.
There are so many continuous marching tents that they are like dark clouds in the sky, stretching to the end that is invisible to the field of vision. They are densely packed and stacked on top of each other on the undulating horizon.
Groups of gryphon knights are flying across the sky all the time, and there are patrolling knights and sentries on the ground all the time to maintain order in this huge military camp.
There are NPCs and player priests everywhere who are loudly preaching to boost morale, and everyone is in high spirits, just like players and tourists and businessmen in a grand celebration.
Various mounts are like an exposition of beasts, and their owners, whether they are NPCs or players, are like the heroes in fantasy epic war blockbusters, with the appearance, strength and even temperament of heroes.
From the first-level sergeant to the first-level corps leader, players are the central nervous system of this huge legion, and at the end are the brave and fearless NPC squad leaders who only know how to execute orders and regard death as home.
The system is everywhere, making this huge legion and this war machine with tens of millions of parts mesh together as precisely as gears. As the most inconspicuous screw in this war machine, Xia Fan can't help but
By yourself, except for breathing, almost all actions are restricted and prescribed in detail.
There is no need to think about when to do something and when not to do something. You just need to follow the orders of the NPC team leader.
Not far away, a war golem was assembled. In this epic fantasy war that focuses on cold weapons, these things are like Gundams, and the NPCs and players who control them are like Avatars and their Tukun mounts.
The huge and heavy beast of burden, carrying a heavy magic cannon on its back, was still moving towards the front line, with huge footprints and deep marks left by the wheels.
The deep ditches were filled with stagnant water, and the largest number of them, just like mosquitoes in reality, seemed to smell the strong smell of blood. They had quietly settled in this huge military camp, just like the sky.
The scavenging birds wandering around, like the ghouls that occasionally appear, come by the smell and want to join this gluttonous feast without fear of danger.
The dark clouds in the sky are gathering at an abnormal and weird speed, like a large piece of lead. It looks so thick and heavy, as if it will fall down in the next second.
The light is getting lower and darker, and players are complaining that the "lag" is getting more and more serious. Guess whether the server is about to be overwhelmed and will go down or something.
Amidst the continuous sounds of orders, Xia Fan ran out of the tent, found his position outside the tent, erected the heavy iron-wood shield in front of him, and stood as straight as a javelin.
The player quartermaster appeared accompanied by the NPC team leader. Without any nonsense or politeness, he began to install some incomprehensible plug-ins for the shield.
"It will be like this when the time comes, like this...when encountering danger, like this, like this...when receiving orders, like this, like this..."
There is also a group of people in the military camp who are equally busy, that is, players and NPCs from the Alchemy and Enchanting Association. These technical experts are doing delicate work, such as this one.
System-standard and mass-produced, the magic array plug-in is installed in the reserved groove of each shield. When needed, all the shields can be connected into one. Each visitor militia is like a drop of water flowing into a stream.
The streams merge into the ocean.
"...You will feel tired. Don't panic. This is a normal phenomenon. The magic circle will extract your health points to maintain the operation of the entire matrix. It will not cost you your life."
"...Remember, everyone only has 5 resurrection times. There is nothing free or charged. But you must remember that after the fifth resurrection, you must report to the team leader in time, otherwise an accident may occur. I won't
You should all know what an accident is."
Xia Fan nervously kept this in mind, this was no joke, it was his own destiny.
"There are shield hands...raise the shield!"
The shield hand in front immediately raised the shield with the magic circle plug-in installed, and found that the heavy shield was much lighter. Then he inserted the sharp part of the tail into the soil in front of him, and in the blink of an eye a shield wall was erected.
.
The small plug-ins of the magic circle all lit up, and a hazy halo suddenly enveloped the surface of the shield, connecting all the shields into one.
Almost all tourist militias are auxiliary units such as shield soldiers, which help divide the battlefield, occupy high ground, defend against possible attacks from the enemy from the side and rear, and buy time for the main force to return for reinforcements.
They are like a group of worker ants, doing the hardest, most tiring, and heaviest work. When a crisis comes, they have to use their weak bodies to directly face the enemy's front.
"There is another situation. If there is a network signal delay, don't panic, don't be confused, remember your location, and do what you should do!"
"Remember, the system is everywhere, and the performance of each of you will be recorded, absolutely fair!"
This is well said.
If such a war occurs in reality, due to low technical conditions, it may be possible to confuse what a person did and how he performed, whether he was brave and fearless or a coward who deserted.
It will never happen in the system. You don’t have to worry about your own achievements being buried, let alone someone engaging in malpractice for personal gain, etc.
"Spearmen, all of them, raise it!"
Spears more than ten meters long suddenly stood up from behind Xia Fan, densely packed, turning the thick phalanx into a hedgehog.
Shield bearers and spear bearers are the two arms with the largest number of tourists' militia. They have undergone intensive training. At first glance, they look similar.
At this time, the main force of the corps has completed its gathering, and the vast and loud trumpet sounds. Compared with the purge of the tourist militia, the main force seems extremely unorganized.
They laughed and talked loudly, wearing various cloaks, various mounts, various equipment, various stalwarts, powerful, ferocious, elegant, and exquisite faces. There was only one emotion on their faces, and that was excitement.
"Coming, coming!"
Xia Fan nervously licked his chapped lips. The handle of the shield in his hand was soaked with sweat. What he saw in his eyes and what he heard in his ears was seriously distorted. Suddenly, a ridiculous emotion came over him.
——Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
The huge military camp moved, like a complex engine, with every gear starting to rotate.
Xia Fan only knew how to follow orders, take mechanical steps, and then merge with the main army, then merge into a larger square formation, and then bigger, and then bigger...
In the end, only numbness and excitement were left.
I don't know how many people gathered together, and the sound of breathing and heartbeat filled all the senses. Every breath of air exhaled was filled with scorching temperature, and the air breathed in was as hot as magma.
Xia Fan only knew how to look at the command flag of the NPC team leader. If someone had told him a week ago that he would be so 'good', he would definitely spit on this person, but for some reason, he became like this unknowingly.
.
His field of vision became extremely narrow. Being in a large group seemed to eliminate most of his thoughts and distracting thoughts. He couldn't help but silently chant the holy name of Tias, the goddess of harvest. He vaguely heard someone like him coming from behind him.
, countless voices murmuring prayers.
Together, these sounds seemed to dispel the inexplicable atmosphere that shrouded the scene, and even the lead-colored clouds in the sky receded somewhat.
Woo woo woo...
The vast horns sounded one after another, and Xia Fan began to run. Countless people changed their directions like precision gears, and finally, on the distant horizon, their enemy was ushered in.
Woo woo woo...
There was also a vast howling sound, and the flying mounts that filled the sky came one step ahead of the enemy's main force.
Griffin Knight.
The gryphon knights on both sides met in the middle of the battlefield, and a brutal conflict immediately broke out.
The tracers of skills cut through the sky. The griffins charged in groups and collided with each other. The banging banging sound of fists and flesh could be heard on the ground. Countless griffins broke their wings and fell from the sky like raindrops. Then,
, a torrential rain of arrows rose from the ground, shooting at the griffins that were flying at low altitudes to spy on and harass the main array.
Boom!
The war golems on both sides were blocking the front. The war golem on my side that looked like a black warrior was the most eye-catching. It held a brilliant lightsaber and slashed it in the air to kill an incoming enemy.
The gryphon split into two.
Blood and internal organs were spilled like buckets of water, and the system was no longer mosaic. All real and extremely bloody scenes happened in the eyes of countless players and tourists.
It swirled up and down like waves, and soon the battle between the sky scouts was decided. The gryphon knights in the player camp retreated in a hurry, unable to even clean the battlefield.
The winning side also suffered heavy losses. The system can be revived, but the other side cannot. Such consumption may seem like a victory, but if it happens a few more times, it will definitely be reversed.
The Griffin Knights are a technical unit, and their background in this area is naturally far inferior to the system.
The loss of air supremacy was far less serious than imagined. The large-scale gryphon troops were spying on all aspects of the ground, and the harassment from time to time was countered by the well-prepared high-level players.
Soon, all the player's gryphon knights were resurrected, took off into the air again, and re-covered the safety above, but they no longer fought the enemy.
Contact and testing on the ground also began to occur.
But this time, thieves became the protagonists.
The confrontation was fierce, but Xia Fan could no longer see it. The NPC team leader issued various orders to adjust the formation, making adjustments according to the timely situation of the front line. He gasped for breath, pulled up the heavy shield, and ran several hundred meters to arrive.
A hill is relatively protruding from the battle line, and the shield is smashed down to build a thick shield wall.
Intense construction began inside the shield wall.
The players, the alchemists, laid flat substrates on the roughly flat ground. A resurrection point, a vital resurrection point, became a strategic location that Xia Fan and the others must defend.
Woo woo woo...
I don't know what the final result of the contact station will be. The horns from both sides were blown almost at the same time, and the huge and thick battle line suddenly moved, as if a heavy and slow giant had pulled out one of his legs and walked towards the equally slow and heavy opponent.
The two giants have a frontal battle line more than ten kilometers wide, and invisible confrontations are taking place on the flanks, rear, in the air and even underground. Inexplicable white lights appear in large numbers in Party B's array, but they do not interfere with the lineup of the main force at all.
morale.
Two hours later, the resurrection point behind Xia Fan was completed, and the bulge was no longer bulging, but was located in the hinterland of the battle line. The battle should not have happened yet, but the main forces of both sides were close enough.
Suddenly, a star lit up in the sky, and the thick lead-colored clouds were cleared out of a large area of air. A huge iron door appeared and slowly opened, and troops that had never been seen before walked out.
Angel without wings!
The army from the Kingdom of God.
The system aunt is here!
Just as Xia Fan was feeling panicked, another star appeared above Party B's head, and then a similar iron gate appeared, from which an overwhelming army poured out.
Monster!
A player-centered demon flashed in the air, laughed a few times, and then landed on an unknown battlefield.
"Long live the system's main god!"
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
"From the abyss!"
Xia Fan let out a long breath, and the sky returned to normal. The arrival of reinforcements from both sides seemed to be the final prologue, followed by a long confrontation.
It is said to be a confrontation, and fighting occurs all the time, but the main front line has not moved, as if it is looking for the opponent's weaknesses and assessing the opponent's strength.
In the invisible realm, attacks against the Magic Network have always occurred, but the immersion of hundreds of millions of people, especially the tourist militias, has given the Magic Network a huge 'centripetal force', and countless 'toxins' injected into the Magic Network have been absorbed by itself.
The powerful immune system suppresses, destroys and shields, many of which have spell effects up to 9 levels.
At the center of the magic web, a huge invisible spider is facing attacks from all directions, from the main material world, from unknown planes, from magic, from divinity, from time and space,
Even from the core principles of occultism...
This web is going through wind and rain, and is facing the most serious test since its birth. It is trembling, and the huge spider in the center of the network is spinning non-stop. There are loopholes and dangers there.
Just fix it there.
Players feel much better than before, the 'lag' phenomenon is weakening, all kinds of inexplicable negative states are dissipating, and the situation is developing in a good direction.
"Tsk, tsk, look at the power of the plague!"
The red dragon Flame Destroyer Leviathan was hiding in the airspace a hundred kilometers away, watching with fear the largest war in the material world in the past millennium, and said to the other green dragon in a strong and calm voice, "This way
Are you strong enough to become our ally?"
The green dragon who came from Dragon Island and shouldered a major mission ignored them. A pair of green dragon eyes like emeralds stared at the battlefield, "Can you talk to them?"
"Of course!" Leviathan boasted comprehensively, "I have been in contact with them, and generally speaking, it is not difficult to deal with them."
"That's good... let's see the outcome of this war first." Green Dragon said.
