Chapter 159: Polite and Humble Andrew
"How can we help the players?"
Xu Xiaofan was thinking, why not go to the City of Thorn Flowers himself and find a way to deal with all the masters?
"No, no, this method is too risky."
Xu Xiaofan quickly rejected it. It was obvious that the City of Thorn Flowers was the headquarters of the Temple of Light. He had to be cautious even if he used his divine power to detect it. If he went there in person and killed a group of temple masters, what would happen?
If the Lord of the Hall of Light is forced into a corner, who knows if he has a way to summon the God of Light.
Every fanatic definitely has the means to pray to the god of faith, and the probability of this prayer being captured by the god is also very high.
Xu Xiaofan didn't dare to risk his life. He was not in his complete form yet and would definitely not be able to defeat the God of Light.
This is not called being cowardly, this is called acting cautiously!
After all, if the God of Light discovered that the God of Death had been resurrected, the God of Death’s kingdom might be destroyed again.
The war can only be limited to the struggle between believers, so as to avoid the appearance of the God of Light. As long as the disputes between believers are not too intense and do not involve the foundation of the gods, gods of the level of Lao Guang will definitely not personally engage in hand-to-hand combat.
After all, the continent of Esk is just a low-magic plane, an insignificant place among the many planes of believers under Lao Guang.
"It seems that we still have to start with the details and give players a little support as a game planner."
Xu Xiaofan opened the points mall and began to use his divine power to make some gadgets.
…
Just because a team battle post has been posted doesn’t mean that a team battle will start immediately.
I heard from the bosses in the three major clubs that the time for this team battle has not yet been determined. Is it said that this is to take care of the arrangement of some bait plan?
Just don’t worry about anything else and sign up first.
Players from the three major clubs were calling on everyone to sign up for team battles, and the leaders of the three major clubs were also not idle.
"At present, this is basically the number of troops we have."
In the video chat group of the gaming forum, Xu Ercong held a small baton in his hand , pointed at the screen behind him, and introduced.
"I have been gathering all the combat power we can mobilize since noon today."
"The number of players online has exceeded 400,000, but these 400,000 are not all the players who can participate in the team battle. I estimate that the maximum number of players who can participate is 300,000."
"Among the existing player groups, the second-level system has reached more than 4,000 people. The combat power of players after the second level has increased dramatically. They can be used as surprise troops, but cannot be completely relied upon."
Xu Ercong paused and continued, "In addition to the combat power of the players, we now also have Alia's church army."
"After Alia's brainwashing and propaganda, in addition to the original 100,000 Death Church troops, many NPC believers in the Northern City can also temporarily join the army to fight."
"The City of the North was originally a city of villains. There are many NPCs who are good at fighting, and there are also many adventurers. Bai Xiaosheng, please contact Alia later to see if you can gain the support of this force."
Xu Ercong said: "After all, she is also an NPC of our camp. She should be able to communicate with the players normally and understand the current difficulties of our camp."
Bai Xiaosheng nodded and agreed: "Okay."
Wang Dali said: "I estimate that even if we add Alia's church army and the NPCs from the Northern City who may participate in the battle, our team will not have more than one million members."
"Yes."
Xu Ercong nodded: "We still have a third combat force, that is the magic puppet!"
"According to the statistics I got from the planner, the number of players who currently have magic puppets exceeds 10,000! In other words, we have at least 10,000 magic puppets above level 40. This is a group of military forces with terrifying combat power!"
"According to the information about magic puppets recorded in the Magicians' Guild, this level of magic puppets is roughly equivalent to an elite army of 500,000!"
Xu Ercong continued, "In addition to magic puppets, we also have the power of the Magicians' Guild to use. Andrew once said that he would seek help from the Magicians' Guild."
"The Thorn Flower School of Magic is the leading force among the academic schools. It can be said that all the magicians on the entire continent come from the School of Magic. Now that something has happened to the old dean, the Magicians' Guild of the Northern City cannot just sit back and watch."
"Although I still don't know how much specific combat power the Magicians' Guild can utilize, at least this is good news."
"Based on the current data, we can just scrape together a million-strong army that is not quite regular. "
Xu Ercong shrugged his shoulders: "This is all the cards we have in this battle."
“It’s still not safe enough.”
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head and sighed, "Compared to the City of Thorns, our strength is still a little weaker."
"Yes."
Xu Ercong nodded: "So, now we can only rely on the original plan. Statistics on combat power and declaration of group battles are just preparations for the worst-case outcome."
"Aotian, you..."
Xu Ercong looked at the shadow of the character in Long Aotian's video, but there was no one there.
I don't know where this guy ran off to.
He disappeared during the meeting!
Xu Ercong raised his voice: "Long Aotian!"
"I'm coming!"
Long Aotian's voice was heard, and he reappeared in the video group.
Long Aotian chuckled, feeling a little embarrassed: "I had to pee urgently, so I went to the toilet."
Everyone looked at him. Although it was just a video, they could see three or four lipstick marks on Long Aotian's face.
Everyone knew what was going on, except Xu Ercong, who laughed angrily: "You are so capable, you even forget to have sex even when you go to the toilet."
Long Aotian was very modest: "No, no, Brother Cong was joking."
"The meeting is over. Long Aotian, go find Andrew and start executing the plan!"
"okay."
…
Early the next morning.
The peace delegation from the City of Thornflowers was ready to leave the Northern City and return to the City of Thornflowers.
The other people in the delegation did not know how the negotiations between Andrew and the Lord of the Northern City were going. They had been staying in the city these days but had not seen any important people from the Northern City.
Andrew had a gloomy face all the way and no one dared to disturb him.
Due to Abel's early departure, the Knights Templar warriors responsible for guarding the peace delegation were also leaderless.
With their status and rank, they had no right to know the content of Abel and the Palace Master's plan, so after Abel left, they obeyed Andrew's arrangements and commands all the way.
In addition to this group of members of the Knights Temple, the rest of the peace delegation consisted of academic magicians, grassroots officials from the Lion Empire, and some servants.
Except for Andrew who had a sour face, the whole peace delegation had a peaceful journey. Everyone traveled quickly, hoping to return to the City of Thorn Flowers as soon as possible.
After staying in the North for a long time, I always feel a little homesick.
The other members of the peace delegation did not know that behind them, a group of top players from the Northern City were following them secretly, neither hurriedly nor slowly, always hanging behind the delegation team.
According to the project team 's plan, the first step is to arrange a group of elite players to sneak into the Northern City, disguise themselves as humans, and then inquire about detailed intelligence.
"Cry!"
An eagle's cry suddenly rang out from the cloudless sky.
Suddenly, several lucky eagles flew into the sky among the delegation and flew towards the distance.
"Um?"
He frowned if the author didn't update the article. Why did the diplomatic envoy release the lucky eagle for no reason?
A second-level ghost shadow player asked quietly: "Brother Kan, do you want to chase them and kill these beasts?"
"Not urgent."
The author does not update the cut. He shook his head and said, "Let Andrew handle the affairs of the mission on his own. We should not expose our tracks."
The location of the mission.
Andrew was questioning a clergyman: "Why did you let the Eagle leave without permission? You are challenging my dignity as the head of the group!"
"I'm sorry, Sir Andrew."
The clergyman's face was full of apology, but he showed no fear. "This is the order left by Bishop Abel when he left. If the peace delegation is ready to return, they must notify the City of Thorns in advance."
"Bishop Abel said that this was done so that the main city could be prepared in advance for the return of the delegation."
"Oh, is that so?"
Andrew nodded expressionlessly, but sneered in his heart.
By releasing the lucky eagle, was this to tell the City of Thorn Flowers that they could start dealing with me? Was this also to openly provoke me and let me experience the rage of powerlessness?
"But you have violated the rules of the delegation. According to the previous orders of His Majesty, I will make the final decision before the delegation returns to the main city."
Andrew looked at the clergy indifferently. When he thought about the Temple of Light arresting the old dean, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Andrew now saw that he hated every clergy member from the bottom of his heart, not to mention the clergy member in front of him who did not take his superiors seriously.
"I know, but you have no right to punish me."
The clergyman smiled and said, "Only the temple can punish clergymen. We are here to assist you, but we are not your servants or subordinates. You have no right to punish or order me."
"If you have nothing else to say, I will go back first."
The clergyman bowed respectfully and turned to leave.
"Fire Binding!"
Andrew shook the wand in his hand, and a control magic was cast at will, controlling the clergyman in front of everyone in the delegation.
"What are you going to do, Sir Andrew!"
The clergy member was a little panicked. Feeling the ring of fire wrapped around his body and the hot energy, he began to feel afraid.
"Can the Temple of Light disobey the orders of His Majesty the King?"
"this……"
"According to the laws of the Lion Empire, you are a commoner without a title. As a member of the delegation, you violated my orders without authorization. I suspect that you are colluding with the undead in the Northern City!"
Andrew waved his wand gracefully and said calmly: "Burn."
“Bang!”
The fire ring exploded, burning the clergy members to ashes on the spot, without them even having time to scream.
Andrew’s voice was calm: “I have the right to execute you!”
A living person just turned into a pile of ashes.
The members of the delegation present were silent and dared not speak, most of them looked at Andrew in fear.
At this moment, everyone suddenly realized that this always polite and humble man was actually a great magician!
The aura of nobility and his own qualities are just embellishments to the aura of Andrew's magical attainments. This is a magician who can gain enough attention from the temple.
If faith can make people obscure their own reason and become fearlessly arrogant, then such faith is undoubtedly stupid.
Andrew didn't even look at the ashes on the ground.
He looked up in the direction of the City of Thorn Flowers. He did not chase after the lucky eagles. The temple should have more means to know that he had returned before. A few lucky eagles were just a provocation.
Andrew knew that from the moment he embarked on the road back, he had stood on the opposite side of the temple.
Even if he didn't kill this clergy member, the temple would not let him go.
As long as he returns to the City of Thorn Flowers, he will surely encounter countless difficulties and traps, and a more miserable fate and outcome than that of the old dean may be waiting for him.
"Let's go, keep on going and head to the Thorn Flower School of Magic as soon as possible!"
At Andrew's command, the delegation moved forward again.
For the magic academy, he is fearless.
Even the future is full of dangers.
