Chapter 83

3 seconds?

Looking at the dazzling skills flying out from every corner, everyone felt that Qingyao would not even need 1 second to go straight up.

As it turned out, when all their firepower was directed at the assassins on the city wall, their health dropped so quickly that within three seconds, a series of prompts popped up above their heads...

[Kill 1 enemy head and get 10 points]

[Kill 3 enemies and get 30 points]

Kill 2 enemies and get 20 points.

There were a total of 6 assassins, and none of them could even touch the edge of the battle flag. They all turned into beams of light and disappeared before their eyes.

In Guild Wars, players have only three chances to revive.

Because the number of times is limited, how to maximize the guild's combat power within the limited number of resurrections has become an unavoidable topic in guild battles.

Xia Mo didn't know whether [Zuijiuxiaohongchen] and the others had read the rules carefully, but judging from their formation of rushing forward without even a nurse around them, it was obvious that they didn't take the number of resurrections seriously.

In that case, let's just wait for them to die.

The entire Qingyao went straight up, and no one rushed out of their own city. Compared with the drunken Xiao Hongchen who was killing his way with weapons in hand, the two sides formed a sharp contrast.

Looking at this scene, Vice President Xiao Hongchen felt increasingly uneasy.

What the hell are they doing over there? Why aren't any of them coming out? Are they just going to hold the city like this and not take any points?

Just as he was frowning in thought, suddenly several assassins sent out by Zhuye Zuijiu all came back dead.

"What's going on?" he asked with a sullen face.

The assassins looked at each other, with a hint of guilt in their eyes.

"Vice-Chairman, the people heading straight up from Qingyao were lying in ambush. We activated our stealth and advanced. Just as we were about to emerge and pull down the battle flag, several assassins suddenly swooped down from all directions and stabbed us in the back!"

"Yeah, they used the [Backstab], which has a stun effect. We got hit and couldn't move... so, so..."

The speaker lowered his head, too embarrassed to continue.

Xiao Hongchen's expression darkened. He turned away from them and stared ahead, commanding via voice chat, "All assassins, retreat. Don't pull the flags yet. Instead, coordinate with melee attacks and attack their walls. Healers and Warlocks, take note. Be sure to protect your teammates within your area. Anyone who fails to do so will have their contribution points deducted."

Although Xiao Hongchen is the vice president, his combat power and command are actually higher than Zhuye Zuijiu. In addition, his face is a bit colder than Zhuye Zuijiu. In a sense, his words carry more weight in the guild.

When they heard him say that contribution points would be deducted, more than a dozen priests and warlocks perked up, drinking blue potions to replenish their mana while carefully watching the output around them, fearing that any mistake would put them in danger.

Unable to attack the opposite city, they bombarded the city walls according to Xiao Hongchen's instructions.

Blowing up the city wall also counts as points. Unless Qingyao Zhishang's men can come out to fight and harvest their heads in person, otherwise, if this trend continues, their points for Zuijiuxiaohongchen will only increase, and the gap between them and the opponents will become larger and larger. When they can no longer catch up, that will be the time for Qingyao Zhishang to kowtow and admit his mistake.

Seeing that it was easier to get the points than they had imagined, several long-range players running in the distance couldn't help but grumble.

"Isn't it said that Qingyao Zhishang is very powerful? Why are these people so scared that they don't even dare to leave the city?"

"Yeah, even though they have fewer kills, they still have the support of the world's number one Mo Se on the other side. How could they be so cowardly?"

"Don't tell me you regret it, do you?"

"It's possible... After all, we have so many people, we can outnumber them several times over."

Several ranged soldiers stood about 20 meters away from the city, communicating with each other while mindlessly standing there and attacking.

At this moment, suddenly one of the remote people discovered something flying out from above the city!

The thing was round and big, drawing a parabola in the air and flying towards them with a roar.

His pupils suddenly bulged upwards. After seeing clearly what it was, the elementalist shouted in alarm: "Run! There's a shell coming!!!"

He shouted at the top of his lungs, shocking the dozens of ranged attackers who had been standing in the back and delivering damage!

What? A cannonball? Where did Qingyao get the cannonball?!

Of the dozens of people, half did not react to the elementalist's shouting, and among those who did react, half ran too slowly because of their short legs.

In the end, even with the elementalist's advance warning, only ten of Zuijiuxiaohongchen's ranged soldiers escaped.

As for the rest, sorry, they all became cannon fodder under the stones thrown by Qingyao! In an instant, they turned into white light and disappeared in the open space between the two cities.

Zuijiuxiaohongchen had a strong advantage in kills. Because of this, the people in their guild were generally calm before the battle, and believed deep down that this was a battle that they could not lose.

With this thought in mind, they rushed forward without any vigilance.

If driving all the assassins who had previously pulled down the flag back into the city was just an appetizer and slightly surprised them, then at this moment, the bombardment of huge rocks that were like cannonballs one after another completely disrupted the rhythm of Zuijiu Xiaohongchen.

No one expected that the more than 20 people who were hiding in the city without saying a word would suddenly throw countless huge stones.

Huge spherical black stones fell from the sky, landing squarely on the area where the rangers were most densely populated, taking away the lives of more than 30 rangers of Zuijiu Xiao Hongchen.

Qingyao went straight over here and her points accumulated to 330 points in one go!

This made the members who had been trapped in the city for a long time feel relieved!

They had long wanted to try out the catapult they had bought at such a high price, but Mo Se did not allow it and required them to wait until almost all the long-range enemies on the opposite side had gathered before taking action.

This made Ripe Tomato, who was in charge of Catapult No. 1, very anxious. He would turn around and ask a question almost every ten seconds or so.

"Boss, is it ok?"

"Boss, I think it's almost time to start throwing stones."

"Boss, do you still want to wait? If you wait any longer, our city wall will be lost."

…

Finally, after asking impatiently for the Nth time, he finally heard the long-awaited answer.

"catapult!"

Following Xia Mo's order, three catapults launched a barrage of stones!

The ripe tomato is No. 1, the salad with meat sauce is No. 2, and the lotus leaf Xiaoxiao is No. 3.

The three machines came down at the same time, and the huge rocks smashed down, splashing a cloud of dust in front of the entire city. During this time, there were also various screams and fleeing sounds from Drunk Laughing Red Dust's own people. It was a very cool scene.

However, everyone was not happy for two seconds, as Xia Mo's calm voice suddenly came from the voice chat.

"Slinger No. 1, the stone landed 2 meters away from the expected range, resulting in two missed ranged targets."

"Slinger No. 2, the stone landed accurately, but the speed of the stone was too slow. Someone on the enemy reacted in advance and ran away."

"Slinger No. 3, your position and speed are both good. Keep up the good work."

There were only three people in total, but only He Ye Xiaoxiao qualified. Tomato and Sala, who were veterans of the guild, couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

Especially Sala, he is the guild administrator, but his stone throwing skills are not as good as He Ye Xiaoxiao's. It is quite irritating for him to be the administrator.

He sighed guiltily, then gripped the handle of the catapult again, staring at the battlefield ahead without blinking. "Understood. I'll pay attention next time."

The ripe tomato quickly took over, saying that he would aim carefully next time before throwing the stone.

Because of the previous round of stone throwing, Drunk Laughing Red Dust's ranged enemies were caught off guard, and the priests and warlocks who were staring at the ranged enemies were even more unprepared.

They didn't even have the chance to heal their teammates, and could only watch them disappear into streaks of light.

Another group of dead people came back, and the number was even greater than last time.

Xiao Hongchen closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

No wonder the people who went up Qingyao refused to come out. It turned out that they were not afraid, but were planning a big move on the city wall.

Catapult...

He muttered to himself as his eyes slowly opened.

However, the first moment after opening his eyes, he did not tell his response strategy, but turned his head and looked at Zhuye Zuijiu beside him: "Zuijiu, do you have any ideas?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Zhuye Zuijiu.

He frowned subconsciously, as if he was somewhat displeased with Xiao Hongchen's behavior of knowing the tactics but not telling them. However, considering that everyone was watching him, Zhuye Zuijiu quickly hid his thoughts, coughed twice, and said.

"I think we can change to a 4-man formation, with a tank and a sub-tank, who will go to the front line to resist the rocks. The ranged players will stand behind them and continuously deal damage. The ranged players will have a healer or warlock next to them to heal the three of them at any time."

The power of those falling stones is not small. Zhuye Zuijiu saw it just now. A single tank cannot withstand it at all. Even if it can, it is quite difficult. So it is better to bring a deputy tank as well to share the pressure.

In addition, there is a nurse watching over the blood recovery, so that both Ts will not fall, and the long-range output will not be lost.

After Zhuye Zuijiu finished speaking, he was secretly delighted with his own strategy.

However, a basin of cold water was poured over his head.

Xiao Hongchen: "The theory is very good, but it is not suitable for us."

Zhuye Zuijiu frowned again: "Why do you say that?"

Xiao Hongchen glanced at him calmly, his tone of voice not changing at all because of Zhuye Zuijiu's micro-expression. "First of all, in a four-man formation, tanks occupy two. However, among our participants this time, ranged players are the majority, and tanks only account for less than a quarter. Therefore, a lineup like yours won't be able to match many."

"Secondly, even if we have enough tanks to complete the team, our output will be greatly reduced. We can't attack Qingyao's city wall and get the battle flag, and they won't come out. Therefore, our only chance to gain points is to bombard the city wall."

"But have you ever thought about sacrificing a lot of output in order to ensure absolute safety? If Qingyao goes straight to the middle and causes some trouble, will we have to give up hundreds of points again?"

Xiao Hongchen looked at the death record. Just now, they had lost 33 long-range players, and 330 points were lost for nothing. This was a blatant mockery for them who had the advantage in numbers.

One mistake can be tolerated, but they cannot rely on their numbers to make mistakes all the time. If the old man knew about this... Zhuye Zuijiu would definitely not be given a spot in the mecha competition in the second half of the year.

Losing the place in the competition is tantamount to implicitly admitting in their circle that he will no longer be the next heir of the Zhu family.

If it really comes to that, Xiao Hongchen thought silently, he should also see the current situation of the Zhu family clearly and find a new way out for himself as soon as possible.

Zhuye Zuijiu had no idea what Xiao Hongchen was thinking. He only knew that the solution he came up with with his own intelligence was directly rejected by the latter, and in front of so many people. Where would he put his face as the president?

He clenched his fists and his expression turned a little ugly.

But the situation was urgent and they didn't have time to discuss it, so they had to grit their teeth and agree to adopt Xiao Hongchen's proposal.

The guild members immediately took action. This time, they did not rush forward blindly. Instead, they moved to the sides under the cover of the main tank or sub-tank.

If there was a bird's-eye view at this time, one could see that their people spread out in a "human" shape after leaving the city, approaching the city of Qingyao from the flank.

According to Xiao Hongchen's explanation, the three catapults on the city wall were powerful, but not without flaws.

One of its fatal flaws is that the catapult is heavy and difficult to steer. Generally speaking, it is more suitable for fixed-point throwing and not suitable for flexible combat.

Even if it can turn at a certain angle, the range of the throw is generally limited.

So as long as they avoid the throwing range of the catapult, the enemy will not be able to attack them.

As it turned out, when the melee and ranged forces advanced from the flank, none of the three catapults hit them. Instead, they slammed into the open ground, as if in impotence and rage.

Seeing this scene, dozens of ranged soldiers who had been thrown back into the city felt very angry. They grinned triumphantly, raised their weapons, and attacked the side walls.

[Warning, the city wall has been damaged by 8%, please pay attention to defense]

[Warning, the city wall has been damaged by 10%, please pay attention to defense]

Qingyao went straight inside, and the members received two warning messages in succession.

Although this result had been anticipated, everyone was still worried when they saw that the damage had reached 10%.

Behind the tightly closed city gate, the hunter hid a knife in his crotch and another man held the push rod tightly in his hand, his heart beating fast with nervousness.

"Brother Dao, when can we rush out? I'm so nervous that I can't breathe." The new hunter breathed hard, his chest heaving violently with every breath.

Pants. Crotch Hidden Knife also swallowed nervously. He lowered his voice, responding to his teammates and comforting himself at the same time: "Don't be nervous, wait a little longer, Mo Se should be giving the order soon."

Just as he finished speaking, Xia Mo's loud command sounded in the voice.

"Open the city gates!"

Knife hidden in crotch: "Now is the time! Charge!"

Rumble, rumble, the heavy city gate was pulled open from the middle to both sides.

In the 30th minute of the war between the two sides, under Xia Mo's command, Ku.dang Cangdao and the newcomer became the first attackers and bravely left the city.

It’s just that this way of leaving the city is a little special.

Standing on the city wall directly above Qingyao, everyone could see it quite clearly. However, when the perspective switched to Zuijiu Xiaohongchen's side, they could only see patches of dust effects in the middle of the battlefield.

That was the dust stirred up by the stone hitting the ground. Zuijiuxiaohongchen and the others were already used to it and didn't take it seriously.

However, more than ten seconds later, a car suddenly rushed out from the dust. At the same time, the chaotic shouting of the members suddenly rang out in the voice.

"Oh no, something passed by!"

"What's that? A catapult?"

"No, it's not! The vice president said that catapults are heavy and can't go that fast!"

"Hurry up and look! That car seems to be heading towards our city gate!"

"Oh no! That thing seems to be entering the city! Quickly notify the people at the city gate to close the gate!!!"

Panic swept through the drunk and laughing people in the world almost instantly. No one knew what that ridiculously fast wooden cart was.

Of course, even if they knew, it would be too late to react.

The city gate opens and closes for 3 seconds.

The two men with knives hidden in their crotches took advantage of the dust raised by the catapults and mixed in the sand and dust, and had already run halfway across the battlefield.

As for the remaining half, since they were both hunters and were agile enough, by the time the other side reacted and decided to close the city gate, the battering ram had already rushed to the other side's city gate at lightning speed!

Bang!

The military battering ram, which was specially used to ram the city walls, knocked a big hole in the half-closed city gate!

Behind the hole, one could vaguely see several members with expressions of horror and disbelief.

Their mouths were half open, as if they were about to report that the city gate had been breached, but before they could open their mouths completely, a match suddenly ignited the explosive pack on the battering ram.

1 second, 2 seconds.

When the people in the city realized that it was a bomb, they turned around and ran away.

However, this is their lair. Where else can they run to?

boom!

The explosives exploded!

The earth shook, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and a big hole was blown out in the wall of Drunken Laughing at the Red Dust.

Looking at the big hole in front of him, and then looking at the wall opposite where Qingyao went straight up and only had one layer of bricks blown off, the comparison of which one has higher points is obvious at a glance!

"Damn, where did they get all these instruments?!"

Zhuyezuijiu, who thought he could turn the tide this time, looked at the hole that could not be repaired at all, and his face turned pale with anger.

What should I do? Leaving such a big hole here is like opening my front door wide open to let people in.

However, anyone who comes straight from Qingyao must not come in!

Because they will definitely seize the flag on the city, and then we will lose more points.

Thinking of losing points again, Zhuye Zuijiu gritted his teeth unwillingly and immediately opened the microphone: "All the main tanks and assassins outside the city, return to the city immediately! I want you to defend the cave entrance to the death. You must not let Qingyao go straight to them and reach the city!"

When Xiao Hongchen heard Zhuye Zuijiu's command, his eyes flashed imperceptibly.

He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He just picked up the star official weapon, which was the same ink-colored as the one on the opposite side, and jumped off the city with a group of people.

"Follow me," he said as he ran in the opposite direction, his tone and expression more serious than before.

There was nothing wrong with his tactics, as the V-shaped attack did cause substantial damage to the city wall that Qingyao was climbing up.

However, they suffered a loss because they did not expect the other side to have so many military equipment.

First the catapults, then the battering rams. Each time, they struck them with pinpoint accuracy.

The rhythm can be adjusted if it is disrupted once, but twice, three times... even the most powerful command cannot change the members' mentality.

What's more, Xiao Hongchen pursed his lips. Even though they had a large number of participants and a headcount advantage, half of them had never worked with the rest of the guild. In other words, they were all independent players before and had no idea of ​​his or Zhuye Zuijiu's command style.

This resulted in a situation where everyone rushed forward mindlessly at the beginning of the battle, like fighting bulls, and could not be pulled back.

Regarding this, Xiao Hongchen didn't blame the members. After all, it was his fault for not issuing accurate orders at the beginning.

But now, after clearly knowing the weaknesses of his guild, Xiao Hongchen is not prepared to give orders to so many people.

Firstly, the effect is not good and it wastes time during the war. Secondly, they cannot afford to fail again. If Qingyao goes straight up and still has some equipment that she hasn't used, then they really won't be able to fight back and will just be beaten.

Therefore, Zuijiuxiaohongchen VS Qingyao goes straight ahead. Whether they can win depends on the most important game with the opponent next!

Xiao Hongchen frowned, and ran towards the opposite side as fast as he could, following the setting sun.
