As soon as the NPC coalition forces arrived, the merchant alliance forces stopped attacking the village. Instead, they began to adjust their queues and directions to prepare to meet the NPC coalition forces. This was undoubtedly a very smart approach. If the merchant alliance forces invaded the village, they would have to adjust if they wanted to.
It's difficult, it takes more time, and some of the troops are in the village, so it's a bit difficult to start and end the fight.
The two NPC troops did not rush up. Instead, they first adjusted their queues and formed their formations, and then slowly moved towards each other. At this moment, all players became bystanders.
The number of the Empire's NPC coalition is about 26,000 or 27,000, while the Merchant Alliance seems to have more than 20,000 people, but many of them are players and ordinary Merchant Alliance NPC skirmishers.
to 15,000 people.
In a confrontation of this scale, the main focus is on the organized NPC troops. Players and NPC skirmishers can only play side-by-side. As for the low-level soldiers purchased by players with resources or money, they are completely cannon fodder.
, the AI is super low, and the soldiers who only know how to move forward according to a fixed route are of no use at all.
The difference in the number of the main force was nearly half, and there was also a clear gap in combat strength. As soon as the two armies came into contact, the empire's NPC coalition gained a clear advantage and completely suppressed the opponent. The subsequent sudden entry of 500 guards and another 2,000 cavalry was even more dramatic.
With one final word, the Merchant Alliance army was cut into two parts.
Players cannot fight large-scale positional battles and fortified battles, let alone headwind situations, but it is no problem to add icing on the cake when their own side has the upper hand. As soon as they saw an opportunity, a large number of empire players immediately rushed forward.
At this time, the structure of the Merchant Alliance troops has been disrupted, and it is no longer possible to organize an effective firepower network to suppress the empire players, and the players' personal combat power advantages can be fully utilized.
In less than 10 minutes of fighting, the merchant alliance army was completely defeated. Seeing that the situation was not good, the merchant alliance players took the lead in running away. As soon as they ran away, the empire players immediately turned all their attention to the NPCs.
Players all want to get more heads, so when choosing attack targets, they often give priority to thin-skinned professions, such as mage and priest NPCs, and players' explosive power is much stronger than NPCs.
The rear troops of the Merchant Alliance were defeated first, and then the entire Merchant Alliance army began to flee, and the battle entered the harvest stage.
During the harvest phase, the infantry brigade of the NPC coalition was of little use. The cavalry troops were left to continue chasing north, and the infantry regrouped and began to return to Gloya City.
Naturally, the players would not let go of this good opportunity to harvest heads. Except for Yun Xiaohan, no one followed the NPC coalition back, and they were all chasing the collapsed Merchant Alliance troops.
This field battle ended quickly, and the losses of the NPC coalition forces were also very small. The total casualties were only about a thousand people. Of course, this did not include the losses of the players. Before the NPC coalition forces arrived, the casualties of the empire players were probably already over.
More than 5,000 people.
After the NPC coalition arrived at the west gate of Gloya City, they began to divide their forces. They left 10,000 people led by Balgruv to attack the west gate. The remaining 12,000 people were divided into two groups and headed for the north gate and south gate respectively. It seemed that they planned to besiege them at the same time.
Four doors.
Although the NPC coalition did not send more troops to the east gate, and only Liya and her hundred-man Duke Guard followed her back to the east gate, there were still the largest number of siege troops outside the east gate, and the main siege weapons were also at the east gate.
, but the siege troops outside the east gate are already enough. No matter how many people there are, they can't spread out. If they can't get up, it's meaningless. It's better to launch an attack at other gates to disperse the defenders' forces.
Yun Xiaohan naturally understood that East City was the main direction of the coalition's attack, so he followed Liya back to the east gate.
Yun Xiaohan shouted several times in the coalition chat room during the move. It was not to instruct the players to do things, but to announce the situation of the battle and remind the players not to chase too far and that they could come back to participate in the siege. At the same time, he also
Refresh your sense of existence.
He did not say that the main attack direction of the NPC coalition is at the east gate. There will always be a lot of discerning people. Many players will return to the east gate to continue participating in the siege. In this way, the attacking troops outside the east gate are enough and there is no need to add more.
Many players come.
Needless to say, the horse that Liya rode was even faster than the mounts of her Duke Guards, which were faster than Yun Xiaohan's armored rhinoceros. However, Liya did not abandon Yun Xiaohan, but slowed down and moved with Yun Xiaohan.
Han Bing rode towards the east gate.
While riding side by side, Liya and Yun Xiaohan exchanged some thoughts on the affairs of the Sardinian Territory.
To be honest, Liya gave Yun Xiaohan a very strange feeling. When interacting with her, Liya's answers were very smart, not like the established procedures at all, just like a real person. However, considering that it might be a real person acting
That's acceptable.
But when Yun Xiaohan uses common modern Internet vocabulary to test, in most cases Liya will act as if she has never heard the word at all. There are only a few cases, such as this year or the past few months.
She would react very confused when hearing new words. That confusion was not because the actor was deliberately pretending to be stupid, but because she really didn't understand.
Yun Xiaohan felt that if he didn't hear it, it might be because the system had blocked it or changed its semantics, and the words monitored by the system would always slip through the net, and Liya would hear the words that slipped through the net.
If it were an actor, it would be fine to give a slight response or pretend not to hear, but Liya would repeatedly ask what the word meant, what it meant, and why it was said so. Yun Xiaohan tried to explain,
But he found that many of the words he said meant the same thing, but what Liya heard had different meanings, and there were even cases where the other party couldn't hear a large part of the words. In the end, he was embarrassed, and Liya was a little dissatisfied.
Yun Xiaohan really couldn't figure it out. He even suspected that the other party was artificial intelligence for a while, but he quickly denied it. Liya's performance was really not like artificial intelligence. She also needed to think over and over again when encountering problems.
, there are also some emotional expressions, such as worries about the country's political situation and concern for her father's physical condition. In short, they are more like real people than computers.
If it were just high intelligence, it might still be possible with existing technology, but Yun Xiaohan definitely didn't believe that such an artificial intelligence that could even simulate emotions could appear all of a sudden, not to mention that it could just so happen.
I encountered this black technology myself.
If I had to describe it, Liya gave Yun Xiaohan the feeling of a real person who is isolated from the world, and whose logic and world view are closely related to the game world.
After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't figure it out. Yun Xiaohan simply stopped thinking about it and didn't want to do any more testing. It was just causing trouble for himself.
Yun Xiaohan never thought of posting this matter on the forum. On the one hand, it was the man's strange desire for exclusivity that was at work. On the other hand, Liya's fan base was too scary, and he didn't want to bring bad luck to him.
