Shi Gu is an apothecary, capable of both offense and defense, as well as healing and support in battle, making him an all-around support-oriented player. Ning Xiluo, as a [Sensor], possesses exceptional sensory abilities, allowing him to move with agility and high mobility.
These two work together and can escape smoothly when it matters.
That's right, it's about running away.
If you realize that the enemy has an overwhelming numerical advantage, there is no point in holding the stronghold. Saving your life is the priority. You should retreat to the interior as soon as possible.
It's important to know that in this points-based stronghold competition, each guild will have its own exclusive territory after occupying strongholds of varying sizes, much like a "land".
Once a strategic position is lost, a new strategic plan must be devised.
For example, outposts on the periphery like "Nightingale Tavern" (1050, 49, 33) can be defended appropriately, but not desperately. If they are captured by other guilds, the defenses can be contracted and the remaining forces can be concentrated in the core area to slowly wear down the enemy.
At the same time, buy time to recover, send a group of people to flank the enemy and launch a surprise attack to disrupt their rhythm, and then try to recapture some strongholds.
Yu Xiangnan arrived at the dark alley and found that there were no other guild players around, and the three NPC thugs from before were gone, leaving only the skinny little boy who had been bullied earlier.
He huddled in the corner, seemingly starving.
Seeing this, Yu Xiangnan took out the whole wheat bread he had casually stolen from the "Nightingale Tavern" and handed it to the little boy.
This whole wheat bread has a rich wheat flavor, with a slightly charred crust and a very soft interior.
The little boy looked shocked, his lips parted slightly as if trying to say something, but he could only utter a few indistinct syllables, stammering and unable to form a coherent sentence.
It wasn't until Yu Xiangnan said "Eat it" that the little boy accepted the whole wheat bread with trembling hands.
A flicker of barely suppressed excitement flashed in his eyes, and then he bowed deeply to Yu Xiangnan respectfully, saying in a slightly choked voice, "Thank you, madam."
[Testing in progress...]
[Hint]: The child who was surrounded has +20 favorability.
Yu Xiangnan smiled and didn't say anything more.
In this guild war, players won't experience hunger, thirst, or other physiological discomforts, so there's no need to carry various rations and water. My card collection only contains spicy strips for upgrading Little Blue.
She then summoned three more guild members who were wandering near the alley to temporarily guard the stronghold before heading with Ji Xiaoyin to the agreed-upon location with [Qingyun].
(-1006, -3527, 10)
......
In the sky, several huge eagles circled and soared, their sharp eyes scanning the earth as if searching for prey.
Occasionally, travelers on horseback would hurry by, wearing tattered cloaks, looking tired yet vigilant, raising a light dust behind them that quickly dissipated in the wind.
Yu Xiangnan looked up and saw rows of huge windmills standing in the distance. Most of these windmills were built of brick, stone or wood, and their huge blades turned slowly in the wind.
On the white tower, moss spreads between the bricks and stones, and around the windmill, the grass is lush and the wildflowers sway.
An unexpected tranquility and peace.
Throughout the journey, Ji Xiaoyin kept a close eye on the guild's private internal channel, quickly browsing the intelligence sent by her teammates, while constantly inquiring about the details of each stronghold.
She meticulously recorded the distribution and status of members at each of the guild's strongholds, while also keeping track of any activity from other guilds.
With Ji Xiaoyin's help, Yu Xiangnan's life became much easier.
With a short distance to the agreed location, Yu Xiangnan abruptly stopped, turned to look at Ji Xiaoyin beside him, and asked with a hint of inquiry in his eyes: "Xiaoyin, I have a question for you. What kind of existence is the Qingyun Guild in your heart... oh no, to be precise, the National Special Administration?"
Ji Xiaoyin was caught off guard by this sudden question. She was stunned for a moment before falling into deep thought.
After a moment, she replied, “The National Special Administration… I really don’t think they can help all of us get back to the real world. Even if they could, it would only be a lucky few. They have no way to help so many strangers, nor do they have an obligation to do so.”
"This game world is completely disconnected from reality. Everyone starts from scratch, and the same goes for organizations and factions. So, if you have to say something, the National Special Administration is just an organization."
"That's my opinion."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiangnan was filled with shock; she had never expected Ji Xiaoyin's thoughts to be so clear.
At this moment, Ji Xiaoyin countered, "President, what do you think? Having stayed here for so long, I'm actually feeling a bit lost..."
"Are you feeling lost? I think you have a very clear mind," Yu Xiangnan said. "As for me, I'm taking a wait-and-see approach to the National Special Administration."
"I have considered returning to the real world, but what the real world is like now, and what situation we are in after entering the game, are still unknown. There are too many unknowns, so for now we can only take it one step at a time and act according to our own conscience."
She cannot control what others think, so she only needs to stay true to herself and firmly walk her own path.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoyin smiled knowingly: "Thank you, I understand."
On the way, the two met up with two more members of the "Full Mountain Cake Hands Open" group. In less than five minutes, they arrived at coordinates (-1006, -3527, 10).
This is a vast flower field, with large swathes of tulips as vibrant as burning flames. They cluster together tightly, and a gentle breeze causes the overlapping petals to sway softly.
Yu Xiangnan looked into the distance and saw a group of people standing in the flower field, roughly five or six.
A quick glance revealed Ji Fu and Xiao Bai among them. Although the remaining faces were unfamiliar, it was certain that they were all members of [Qingyun].
Xia Baizhi stood at the back of the crowd, poked his head out, and blinked frantically in Yu Xiangnan's direction, as if trying to convey his urgency and hints through these frequent blinks.
A member of the Qingyun guild nearby seemed to notice Xia Baizhi's strange behavior and leaned closer with a puzzled look, asking, "Baizhi, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xia Bai looked embarrassed and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Oh, it's nothing, I just got some sand in my eyes, I'll rub it and it'll be fine."
As he spoke, he rubbed his eyes casually.
