Chapter 158 Do you want the experience passed down from our ancestors?
"Forget it? Forget what?"
Andrew was a little confused and looked at everyone.
Everyone was silent, no one spoke.
Five million elite soldiers! There are also more than fifty great magicians with the same strength as Andrew, and there is also a master of the Light Hall with unfathomable strength.
How can we fight this?
The total number of players in all servers has not exceeded 500,000. According to previous group battle experience, the level of elite NPC soldiers is at least starting from level 25!
The average level of players now is around level 25. Although there are thousands of players who have reached level 30 and changed their profession at first glance, the number is still too small.
Five million versus a few hundred thousand, there's no chance of winning no matter how you look at it.
"Do not be discouraged."
Ma Kesi said to comfort him: "Brother Long, we can win with fewer people."
"To defeat the many with the few?"
Long Aotian rolled his eyes: "Is this how you win a war with fewer people? How about when we fight a team, I'll give you the baton and we'll all watch your performance."
Ma Ke refused to say anything. Brother Long was really hurtful. He was just giving advice with good intentions.
If you don't want to fight, then don't fight. Why are you arguing with others?
Ma Ke's death was very unfair.
Andrew smiled bitterly and said nothing. He could see that his introduction scared everyone.
Andrew thought that he should have underestimated the strength of the City of Thorns.
Why should we be so honest? How can we always tell the truth?
Xu Ercong looked at the silent Andrew and sighed in his heart: "I finally understand why this is a world-class hidden mission. It's too difficult!"
This is also thanks to the fact that the Lion Empire has not been attacking the Northern City with all its strength, otherwise the players would have been unable to play long ago.
"Don't worry, we will find a way." Xu Ercong looked at Andrew and comforted him, and Andrew responded with gratitude.
"You guys think the planning dad is really something."
Long Aotian complained, "It's just an expansion pack, why is it made like a total war? If there are so many NPCs, can the server handle it?"
Andrew was confused and didn't understand what it meant for a long time.
The communication between the necromancers is so profound. What is this server? Is it a magical artifact?
"There is always a way."
Xu Ercong said loudly: "You are all the top players in the server! Could it be that you are scared by such a small difficulty?"
“No matter how big the difficulty is, it is just a hurdle set by the authorities. There is always a way to overcome it!”
"Our goal is just to rescue the old dean. We don't necessarily have to go to war with the Lion Empire!"
Xu Ercong began to cheer up the people, and the project team members began to think about how to rescue the old dean.
Andrew spoke at the right time, trying to strengthen the players' confidence: "The Lion Empire's military supplies and food have never been sufficient, and there was a famine last year. Although the City of Thorns has five million soldiers, they cannot fight for a long time, nor can they travel long distances."
"Otherwise, the Lion Empire will send at least several million troops to attack the day after you capture the Northern City. You will definitely not be able to defend the Northern City."
Although Andrew's words were a bit discouraging, they were indeed good news.
With the intelligence support of insufficient food and fodder, the project team quickly analyzed a preliminary plan.
"As long as we can avoid direct combat with the main force of the City of Thorns, we will have a great chance of rescuing the old dean. The only difficulty is how to deal with the NPC masters in the city."
"We have discussed and come up with a plan for now!"
The project leader said with a serious face: "Form a team! Sneak into the city! Get more intelligence, find out where the masters are, avoid them, and then wait for an opportunity to break into the prison !"
"That's a good idea!"
Bai Xiaosheng slapped his thigh and nodded in agreement: "Let's change our thinking. Anyway, this mission is to save people. There is no need for us to fight to the death with the soldiers in the city. We can sneak into the city and withdraw after rescuing people!"
Wang Dali nodded: "Yes, it doesn't have to be a head-on confrontation!"
The author doesn't update the cut. He suddenly said: "Let's do it, I'll lead the team to rescue them!"
"it's useless."
Andrew suddenly spoke up and sighed, "Even if we avoid the defending army and enter the city, there is no way to save the old dean. The Lord of the Light Palace finally found a way to lock up the old dean, and he will definitely send many powerful monks to guard him."
"Not only are the prison guards watching over the old dean, but if I were the Lord of the Hall of Light, I would definitely arrange for at least ten great magician-level experts to secretly monitor him to prevent him from escaping."
Andrew's words were another bucket of cold water poured down.
Long Aotian was very unhappy: "This won't work, and that won't work either. If it's your opinion, we should just charge in! Fight a war of attrition! Set the battlefield at the gate of the City of Thorn Flowers. Fight during the day and continue fighting at night!"
Andrew looked at Long Aotian in confusion. Are all undead wizards so tough?
He doesn't know yet that the players are immortal beings and have enough confidence to fight to the end against any powerful force.
"No, most players can't waste their time in team battles. Everyone still needs to level up."
Xu Ercong shook his head. He had to consider the gaming attitudes of ordinary players. It was impossible for all players to be willing to play in a group day and night.
Unless the Northern City itself is threatened, players would not travel such a long distance just to fight in a group like a robot every day, fighting during the day and then fighting at night.
"What should we do then?"
Long Aotian glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, and suddenly said with a sinister smile: "Why not just forget it? This is Lao Bai's mission anyway. Even if there is a mission penalty, he will be the only one to bear it."
Bai Xiaosheng glared angrily: "There is no punishment for this mission! Don't gloat over my misfortune!"
"I've got an idea!"
The project leader suddenly shouted, attracting everyone's attention.
"It's not difficult to sneak into the city. The only difficult part is how to divert the attention of the expert NPC in the city."
The project leader hesitated and looked at Andrew.
Andrew was a little surprised and touched his cheek. You said your plan, why are you looking at me for no reason?
Is there a flower on my face?
Everyone looked at Andrew, and after a moment of silence, everyone suddenly realized.
"I see!"
Long Aotian laughed, and Andrew was curious: "What do you understand?"
Long Aotian stepped forward and patted Andrew’s shoulder meaningfully: “Brother, I may have to wrong you this time.”
Andrew quickly said seriously: "As long as I can save the dean, I am willing to sacrifice my life!"
"very good."
Xu Ercong nodded with satisfaction. This was exactly the attitude he wanted.
…
After the plan is discussed, the next step is to prepare for personnel transfers and pre-war preparations.
Although it is not necessary to go to war with the City of Thorn Flowers, the necessary preparations need to be done in advance. Otherwise, if we wait until the war starts to temporarily organize a team, it will definitely be too late.
After the meeting at the City Lord's Mansion ended, Andrew hurried away and went to the Magicians' Guild to seek new help, while also planning to tell Alia the news.
Members of the publicity and promotion departments of the three major clubs started posting pre-war calls for action on the gaming forum.
"Three major clubs jointly declare war!"
"The Temple of Light oppresses the people! It bullies the people! It deceives the king! It oppresses the players! It is an unforgivable crime! Today, the three major clubs jointly issued a declaration of war! We officially declare war on the Temple of Light! We players must unite to defeat the Temple of Light, create a better environment for the Esk Continent, and contribute our own strength to the happy lives of the majority of NPCs!"
Once the post was published, it quickly attracted the attention of a large number of players, who rushed to report under the post.
"Declaration of war? Are you crazy? Can the Temple of Light see players' declarations of war?"
"Are the numerous crimes committed by the Temple of Light true or are they just made up by the wizards in the publicity department?"
"Tsk, how unfair! Bullying NPCs can only lead to scolding, and you can't talk back. You even remained in the dark when someone unilaterally declared war on you."
"Besides, I'll be the first to sign up for a team! There aren't many opportunities to play in a team. There are a lot of newbies in the game who haven't played in a team yet, right? Hahaha, when the time comes for a team battle, Dad will come to protect you!"
"Reporting to the host! I just achieved my second transformation today! I'm in good condition! My health bar is full! I have enough life points! I can enter the team battle state at any time!"
"I have a book here on team battle experience. Any newbies want to buy it? One book per day. It's experience passed down from my ancestors. I wouldn't sell it if I wasn't short of money."
"As an old player who has played in a group, I have to say something to you. If you have time, you should guide the newcomers instead of just posting for free. Have you got the title of Undead Teacher? Really, don't participate in the group battles. Give me the chance. I still lack a lot of points to redeem the limited title!"
"I'm a newbie. I just saw someone posting that if you defeat the Temple of Light, everyone will get a female angel as a mount. I want to ask, is this true?"
Players are very enthusiastic about team battles. After all, new players need points to redeem human skins, and old players also need points to redeem limited titles in the points mall.
No one thinks too few opportunities for team battles. This is a traditional game activity in Death Note and an essential game content!
Players who have not experienced the baptism of team battles are not worthy of calling themselves loyal players of Death Scourge.
Xu Xiaofan was very pleased to see this scene, but at the same time he felt that he could not just sit there and watch, he had to help the players!
