I have two principles as a human being:
1. Never lie.
2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.
“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the ...
Fang Shiqing and the other two's sentry time has not yet ended.
They hid in the wine cellar, using the small holes on the cover above their heads to spy on the movements around them and to keep watch for the City Guard Knights who were resting not far away.
After sufficient communication, Cheng Shi finally figured out all the information about this trial.
In fact, the war had already started at the beginning of the trial, before the players woke up.
The [Knights of the Death Bell] of the Sunset Church broke through the outer wall of Gasmaira from somewhere and charged towards the residential area between the outer city and the inner city like a mad dog.
As one of the outer wall guards, their city guard knights were completely dispersed by the enemy during the retreat, and were split into small teams scattered between the inner and outer cities.
The captain of the guard received orders to fight to the death, so everyone had to follow him to gather the remaining troops and resist the charge.
Fortunately, the captain of the guard commanded well and the soldiers were familiar with the terrain. With united morale, they repelled wave after wave of enemies.
But the good times did not last long. On the third day of the war, the captain of the guard died.
He died quietly in the trench where he was taking a rest. His death was inexplicable and incomprehensible.
The team, having lost its spiritual leader, could no longer withstand the enemy's tsunami-like attack and began to retreat. They joined up with other guard knights who had been scattered and prepared to return to the inner city together to provide support.
In order to achieve their goals, the Firebearers had to stay close to the Guards.
Because at this moment, it is impossible to enter the inner city of Gasmera and get close to the experimental field with just the identity of a guard knight.
Scholars would not allow scattered soldiers to seek refuge in the inner city. They would only absorb small teams and then organize them into a new resistance force.
Thus, under the heavy bombardment of the [Doomsday Corps] of the Sunset Church and the wanton charge of the [Knights of the Death Knell], the six players followed this team and fought their way to the inner city wall.
But only then did they discover that the outer area of the inner city had already fallen, and the war had been pushed to the area of Gasmaila Central College.
They were one step late again.
"Our mage teammates have taken control of the team. We changed our routes repeatedly along the way, trying our best to avoid the killing paths of the Deathstroke Knights, but we were still found and consumed by small groups of enemies.
The fact that we are all still alive today is actually thanks to the chaos and disorder of the believers of Chaos.
They did not launch a large-scale charge, nor did they launch a concerted attack. Instead, they just killed people at will and set fires everywhere without control.
Although the enemies were overwhelming, each of them had their own ideas, which greatly slowed down the offensive of the Sunset Church.
But even so, Gasmera still fell...”
After hearing this, Cheng Shi already had an idea.
The defeat of the Tower of Reason was not due to war, but a man-made disaster!
It was obvious that something was wrong inside Gasmera!
This reminded him of a trial that happened not long ago. In that "torture of blood and fire", the elemental judges of the Grand Inquisition bombed the "meteorite from the sky" in the wrong place due to incorrect intelligence.
It seems that at the end of the civilization era, all forces on the surface of the earth had already been infiltrated like a sieve.
The Tower of Matter was not immune either.
Being able to break down two city walls in four days by a group of disorderly lunatics must be a "feat" that could only be accomplished with the support of someone!
And there must be more than one person to respond!
Insider!
There is a mole in Garth McLaury.
But it's too late to say this now, because the balance of war has begun to tilt.
But it’s not too late. After all, the trial is not over yet, and players still need to cooperate with NPCs.
The prerequisite for this cooperation is to catch the traitor in the Cavaliers first!
Yes, there are definitely problems in the Cavaliers team that Fang Shiqing and her teammates are on!
Cheng Shi was 100% certain that some followers of Chaos had taken advantage of the chaos to sneak into the guards.
Perhaps their target was not the guard itself, but they just wanted to sneak into the inner city by pretending to be the remnants of a defeated army, or maybe they had deeper plans, but in any case, this guard must have been infiltrated.
【Chaos】 can confuse other people's cognition. This kind of thing is the easiest thing for them.
The Fire Bearer had already discovered the clues long ago and had even targeted some people.
Cui Qiushi calmly observed the situation around him and explained the identities of the suspects.
"Arcade is the city guard knight we dug out from the ruins of the outer city on the evening of the second day. He is a warrior of Truth and a combat expert, but he has always used injury as an excuse and never went to the front line again.
Yesterday, when I was on guard, I found blood dripping from his body during the march, which seemed to be a message to the outside world.
In the early morning of the third day, Jiajiali was chased by a small group of Death Knell Knights and broke into the cordoned area. He claimed to be a wind-taming ranger, but we have never seen him turn into wind.
Alan, the deputy captain of the team that joined us yesterday along with a small group of city guards, is a knowledgeable scholar who should have been the guardian of the truth and the enemy's spearhead, but he was bent on persuading us to escape to the Central Academy.
besides......"
Every time he heard a name, Cheng Shi's brows furrowed a little. Later, after hearing it so many times, he simply gave up thinking and remembering.
"Now, in your team, there are more people who have sneaked in later than the teammates who have been fighting alongside you?"
Fang Shiqing nodded solemnly.
"Yes, we cannot refuse these soldiers from joining us because our strength is also very weak. If we don't gather the remaining troops, we will die faster."
This is the truth, but this makes the situation even more troublesome.
