Volume 3 Chapter 6 Rescue Tianshui
After killing Akainu in Kaiyang Ridge, I climbed Yaoguang Mountain and Yuheng Mountain in turn, killing the corpse of Nvchou, Datie, Shaotie and other monsters, and found a Boss on each mountain. At the end of the day, I harvested six or seven hundred gold coins and more than thirty pieces of equipment. Haha, the treasure pot is really extraordinary!
The next morning, I continued to level up. After a morning, I had reached level 44. I was feeling proud of myself when I suddenly received an emergency communication from the profiteer, saying that the base Xiao Yi was building was attacked by monsters. He had received a request for help from the members of Tianshui Pavilion and was gathering people at the headquarters. He asked me to hurry back.
There's nothing much to say about this, so I naturally went back to the base immediately (after the headquarters is built, you can use the gang's special return scroll to return to the base directly, which is also valid within 50 kilometers). When I arrived outside the headquarters, I saw that Lonely was online. He had gathered most of the high-level members of the alliance who were online, a total of 500 people!
I stepped forward and said loudly, "Brothers, a few days ago, when we were opening up the wasteland and were attacked by monsters, the brothers from Tianshui Pavilion came to help us twice. This is a favor that our Jinglei League owes them. Now that Tianshui Pavilion is in trouble, it is time for us to repay their friendship. I won't say much. This is the first time our gang has gone out to fight. Everyone, cheer me up and show the power of our Jinglei League! Don't be outdone by other gangs!"
As I raised the Tiger Soul in my hand, the alliance members cheered and shouted excitedly. Hehe, I knew that the quality of our members is good. They will have no objection to helping friendly gangs, but if I stimulate them with a few words, their fighting spirit will be even higher!
Next, I deployed troops, but I didn't plan to send out the whole army. I only selected 350 experts above level 30, led by Momo, Badao, and Xiaowu. I personally led 50 elite alliance members above level 33. After making supplies, we were transferred to Pojun City via the teleportation array and then headed to Tianzhu Lucun City in the east. The rest of the personnel remained stationed at the headquarters to prevent their own base from being attacked by monsters or even some player forces because of the lack of defense.
Xiao Yi established her gang in the far east, near the sea, and it was quite far from Lu Cun City. Although we were all experts, even the slowest warriors had a high speed, but it still took more than two hours to get there. But I understood that she had a lot of thoughts in choosing that place to establish her gang.
In the fantasy, there are many islands along the coast of the mainland, especially in the archipelago on the east coast of the Cang Continent. There are the most overseas fairy mountains and paradises on earth that are creatively set up by ancient mythology, such as the famous Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang Islands. These islands are charming and beautiful, and are unparalleled tourist destinations. There are also many secret places among them, buried with countless treasures. If they are developed, they will be huge wealth.
Xiao Yi built his base on the coast of the East China Sea, taking advantage of the proximity to the water. In the future, when the gang expands, he can apply to include these islands in his territory. As long as he vigorously develops the tourism industry, the profit will probably be not much less than that of my road development, and the risk is smaller; not to mention going to those legendary fairy mountains and temples to find treasures. For example, the famous Water Curtain Cave in the Flower and Fruit Mountain. Of course, it is not easy to defeat the SS-level Boss Monkey King, but there are other places like the Crystal Palace, the Purple Cloud Palace, the Shenying Palace, etc., where the bosses guarding them are strong or weak, and it is not necessarily impossible to succeed.
But I can't figure it out. The level and number of monsters in the East China Sea are not as good as the station I chose. Tianshui Pavilion is also very powerful. There is no reason why Xiao Yi can't hold on and needs help? Although reinforcements can kill the monsters faster, if their own strength is enough to kill the monsters within 5 hours, and we will be delayed for about three hours to run away, it doesn't make much sense. And from what the profiteer relayed, Xiao Yi really felt dangerous and asked us for help.
Never mind, let’s get going as quickly as possible. We’ll know what’s going on when we get there.
At around 1:00 p.m., we could faintly hear the sound of waves crashing against the shore. I called out to everyone and told them to pay attention. All the knights summoned their mounts and mounted them (we had all been walking before to save the horses' energy), and led by me, they rushed over to take a look.
When we got closer, wow, there were a lot of monsters, countless pigs, leopards, tigers, cows, etc., tens of thousands, and the momentum was huge, even larger than the first time we were attacked, but there was nothing to be afraid of, right? At that time, more than a hundred of us held out for more than two hours . There were at least seven or eight hundred high-level players in Tianshui Pavilion, so even if only half of them were online, it should be no problem.
Outside the monster group, I couldn't see Xiao Yi and his group being surrounded. I led more than 30 knights under my command to conduct a tentative attack. The knights, who were arranged in a neat battle formation, collectively launched a charge. The power was extremely terrifying. They rushed into the monster group for dozens of meters. I think Xiao Yi and his group should also have a command platform. Their lookouts should have seen my attack and knew that reinforcements were coming, which was very helpful in boosting their morale. It was a pity that the gang headquarters of Tianshui Pavilion had not been established yet, otherwise the business card calling function could be used within a radius of 30 kilometers near the station. I contacted Xiao Yi directly, and the inside and outside could cooperate more effectively (before the headquarters was established, only members of the gang could use the alliance call within the station. After the headquarters was built, friends within 30 kilometers could use the business card call. If the city was built, the business card call could be used within 50 kilometers like the system city. In addition, when the level of some professions is very high, magic skills can be used to send messages remotely, and there are also methods such as pigeon communication, but the conditions for use have not been met at present).
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the obsidian ring on my left hand. It was the equipment that Xiao Yi and I exchanged when we got engaged. After the engagement, this thing cannot be taken off. Only when we officially get married can we change it into a special wedding ring (wedding rings usually have very bad attributes, but it doesn't matter, because wedding rings don't occupy equipment positions, and you can wear other rings you want to equip). If Xiao Yi and I really get married, I can use more functions between partners, and I can even teleport directly to her side!
After charging and fighting for a while, I didn't dare to go any deeper. After all, if there were only more than 30 of us and we were completely surrounded by thousands of monsters, and if we encountered a few bosses or something, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to retreat.
He led the team to turn around and kill their way out of the monster group. A knight is a knight, he comes and goes like the wind and can advance and retreat freely. This is something no other profession can match. We easily broke out of the encirclement without any casualties, but we did kill nearly a hundred monsters.
After a few minutes, the large force behind us also caught up. After meeting up, we restored the original organization. I led 50 of the strongest team members to take the lead. Momo, Badao and Xiaowu were divided into three groups on the left, middle and right, and they charged into the monster group like three evil dragons.
Compared with the previous few days, our current members are all carefully selected masters, with an average level of 31.2. Half of them have experienced the previous two monster attacks on the camp, and they are more proficient in cooperation skills. Therefore, it is not difficult to break through the encirclement of the monsters. My Tiger Soul is even more powerful. With the support of the mage archers behind me, the monsters in front of me are basically injured when they pounce on me. Therefore, I hardly need to pause. A monster falls down with every knife, just like a hot knife cutting into butter, tearing a passage through the monster group and killing towards the center.
When I swung my sword left and right, killing a tiger and a pig monster respectively, what came into view was a long defensive wall built of reefs. I immediately turned around and ordered the brothers who followed behind me to spread out to both sides, expand the control range, and rush in to support the allies who were still fighting with the monsters behind.
What puzzled me was that there were only a few scattered magic and arrows flying over the defense wall to help us disperse the monsters. Not even a melee team rushed out to support us. Even the cheers sounded like there were only a few hundred people. How could Xiao Yi have only so few troops? It seemed that if they hadn't put more effort into building the defense wall than we did, the defense line would have been lost long ago.
Fortunately, we are strong, and the forwards, flanks, and rear guards are well organized. Although a large group of monsters were chasing us, they were firmly blocked by the melee team members under my command. In a short while, all the alliance members had rushed into the defense circle. I personally covered their retreat and slowly retreated to the defense wall.
Both Momo and Xiaowu are excellent commanders. Without waiting for my orders, they had assigned the team members to the defense line and took over the defense of the Tianshui Pavilion members. I looked into the defense circle, trying to find Xiaoyi, but I didn't find him for a while, but I understood the reason for the strange situation just now.
There was chaos in the defense circle, with a large number of monsters pouring ashore from the coastline and wreaking havoc in the camp. Most of the Tianshui Pavilion members were struggling with sea monsters such as sea devil fish, sandworms, and thorny crabs, but the situation was not optimistic. It seemed that they had not expected that the attack would also come from the coast, and the focus of defense was all placed on the defense wall. As a result, a large number of sea monsters rushed into the camp. You must know that compared to the current level of players, this type of monster is very powerful. It can be blocked if there is a defense line organization, but once the defense is broken, the players will be divided and surrounded by the monster group, and the situation of fighting each other is very dangerous. As far as I can see, there are no low-level members of Tianshui Pavilion in the camp. They must have all died long ago. The remaining two or three hundred high-level members can only barely hold on by forming seven or eight circular formations. No scattered members can be seen, and they are probably in danger. I'm afraid that more than half of them have been killed or wounded in the battle so far. This is all due to the powerful strength of Tianshui Pavilion. If the Jinglei League had been attacked by monsters from the Xianling River and Yuelong River behind it, its first expedition would definitely have failed.
Whether the crisis can be reversed now depends entirely on our support army. I have 50 direct team members around me, as well as 100 subordinates of Ba Dao (the actual number is not that high. When breaking through the monster group, more than 20 to 30 members were killed, but we haven't had time to count them yet). It's a concentrated team. I know that the current priority is to gather all the personnel together to rebuild the defense line, so I pointed to the group of more than 30 Tianshui Pavilion members closest to us and said, "Ba Dao, let's rush over and rescue them, and then rescue the other people who are surrounded one by one. OK, go!"
There is a gentle slope from the defensive wall to the coastline. We swooped down from above with great momentum. A sandworm as thick as a bucket blocked my way, raised half of its body, opened its round mouth full of sharp teeth and bit me. I have never encountered such a monster before, including in the internal test.
I cursed, "What the hell!", and with a horizontal slash, I cut the sandworm in two! The green-brown slurry sprayed up high, which was quite disgusting, but as someone who had experienced leveling in the dark cave, how could I take this little scene seriously? I instigated the Black King to fly past and meet a sea demon fish.
After killing several monsters, I felt that this type of sea monster was actually easier to deal with than the land monsters on the other side of the defense wall. Just as I was wondering why Tianshui Pavilion was in such a mess, two spiny crabs swung their big claws and attacked me.
The spiny crab looks similar to an ordinary crab, but it is about the size of a person. There are many sharp bone spurs protruding from the crab shell. I didn't take it seriously. Hupo chopped horizontally and vertically, blocking the four big claws. Just as I was about to chop it down with a knife, my hand suddenly tightened and I couldn't swing the knife!
I was shocked to see that it was a thorn crab that had clamped Tiger Soul with its big claws. I hurriedly tried to take it back, but I couldn't avoid the attack of the other one. I was clamped by a big claw. Damn, more than 200 HP was lost! This is almost as low as the attack power of a level 50 Boss. Is the thorn crab so powerful?
It wasn't until afterwards that I found out that the Thorny Crab was a level 68 monster!
After resisting two attacks in a row, I finally snatched the tiger soul back from the crab's claws, and immediately chopped it with a knife in anger. It hit the crab shell with a "clang" sound of metal collision. The defense of this thorny crab is even better than its attack, and it is almost as thick as the buffalo leader's skin!
But if I can fight an E-level Boss alone, how can I be troubled by a mere Thorny Crab? With my powerful attack and the Tiger Soul Divine Sword, I can cause damage to even a B-level Boss. No matter how high the defense of ordinary monsters below level 80 is, it can be ignored by me. I will draw my sword and chop again. Within four cuts, I will chop this stinky crab alive!
Unexpectedly, on the third knife, the tiger soul shook and bounced back, leaving a big cut on my left shoulder, causing excruciating pain!
Damn, this knife cut off more than half of my blood, I was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, I hadn't used the Hundred Splitting Thorns, otherwise I would have killed myself instantly? I didn't expect this guy to have the innate attribute of attack reflection. The super attack of Tiger Soul became my fatal injury. If the attack power of player to player (including reflected damage) was not calculated at only 1/5, I would not use Tiger Soul!
No wonder Xiao Yi and the others couldn’t hold on. This kind of thorny crab is definitely the nemesis of melee professions!
After I swallowed the Xiao Huan Dan and Life Water and replenished my HP, I dared not attack the thorn crab again. If there was another attack reflection and a few more monsters attacked at the same time, I might die here. But I had no place to hide, there were monsters all around! I had to take out my shield and use the Iron Wall skill to be a pure meat shield for the time being. At the same time, I ordered the mage team members behind me to focus their fire on the thorn crab. Sure enough, the thorn crab had a low resistance to magic, and large missiles exploded on it. In a few shots, the two thorn crabs were destroyed.
Fortunately, there are not many spiny crabs, only two or three appear occasionally, otherwise it would be really troublesome!
The team members gradually figured out the properties of these sea monsters and adopted targeted tactics. We quickly advanced to the surrounded Tianshui Pavilion members. Xiao Yi was not among this group of people, but most of them had come to rescue the Jinglei League last time. Many of them knew me, so they cheered. I shouted, "Brothers from Tianshui Pavilion, the Jinglei League is here to support you. We will definitely win! Now rescue the other brothers first. Badao, you lead the people to the right, and the rest of you follow me!"
I led my direct team members and Tianshui Pavilion members, a total of more than 80 people, and attacked to the left. After a while, we rescued another group of people. The team grew bigger like a snowball, and advanced faster.
We fought our way to the farthest position close to the sea, and after rescuing the fourth group of people, I saw Xiao Yi. She looked a little tired and haggard, but her eyes were still so determined. We smiled at each other without saying much. I quickly unified the team and led the team back. Fighting here was really disadvantageous!
When we fought our way back to the defensive wall, Ba Dao also rescued the other half of the Tianshui Pavilion members, including Wan Xing. After everyone gathered together, the so-called defensive circle was actually just a flat line against the wall. Although we were still attacked from both sides, the situation was much better and stabilized.
Xiao Yi hurriedly assigned his men to deploy team members to various sections of the defense line. Only then did he have time to talk to me.
According to Xiao Yi's explanation, they didn't expect that there would be a sea monster attack at the beginning. Although they learned the lesson from the previous Thunder Alliance and focused on building a defense wall from the beginning, when the monster group attacked from behind, they were in chaos. Almost all the low-level members were killed or injured in one wave of attacks. They also adopted a rotation system. At that time, two-thirds of the masters were not on the defense wall, but resting in the camp. As a result, they were divided and surrounded by sea monsters. They couldn't concentrate, so they had to send out a message for help immediately and held on. When we arrived, they had reached their limit and might not have been able to hold on any longer.
I listened to Xiao Yi's introduction while observing the battle. Thanks to their strong defense wall, they were not damaged much even when attacked by monsters on both sides. I asked and found out that there were two architects with a level of over 35 under Xiao Yi's command, who upgraded the defense wall to the lowest level of regular fortifications. There were also many reefs on the seashore, which were top-grade wall-building materials, so they could achieve such an effect. However, they have not been attacked by the super boss so far, and the real test is still to come!
However, Xiao Yi also sent a call for help to the starling at that time. Since we have arrived, the starling will probably be here soon. With the combined efforts of the three parties, I believe we can’t deal with these monsters.
I thought about it and decided that it would be better to make some preparations, so I talked to Xiao Yi and asked them to select the knights from their respective alliance members, a total of more than 50 people. I introduced our experience in fending off the Boss's attacks, divided all the knights into three teams, and then rushed out to kill monsters and practice cooperation, waiting for the Boss to appear and give us a head-on blow.
We were well prepared in time. We only charged back and forth among the monsters once before we were attacked by a boss group of cats!
I immediately ordered the knights to attack and go straight for the first seven ordinary bosses that appeared. The level and number of the three knight teams this time were higher than the special team I organized when the Thunder Alliance was attacked for the first time. Therefore, it didn't take much effort for them to rush to a boss respectively. Although King Biao also ordered his men to retreat, we were advancing faster!
Relying on Tiger Soul, I was the first to catch up with the giant beast. I didn't hesitate and swung my sword to chop it. The giant beast pounced on me in pain, but my fighting skills have greatly improved now. I cleverly dodged the giant beast's frontal attack. Although I couldn't avoid all the attacks from the surrounding monsters, I always counterattacked while bearing at least two or three attacks, and it didn't seem difficult.
When the team members behind me also rushed up and joined the battle, I felt even more relaxed. Tiger Soul created many sword lights, and the monsters would be injured if they were touched. The several attacks of Giant Biao were not very effective. Since Tiger Soul had strong attack power and absorbed life very quickly, I only needed to take a small pill to save my life if I was hit by its fatal blow. I didn't even use the Water of Life!
In less than five minutes, I killed the giant beast and immediately led my team to another target!
After I killed another boss, I was about to make another effort when suddenly the monsters surged like waves and a group of people rushed out. It was the starling!
I laughed and said, "Brother, why are you so late? I arrived early!"
Myna also laughed and said, "I haven't established a gang yet, so it's certainly not as easy as you to recruit people. But in terms of combat performance, I'm afraid you're not as good as me, brother. I've killed King Biao!"
Haha, it was the bad luck of this super boss. It was commanding from the rear, but it happened to encounter the large group of Bage who rushed in. Bage had a lot of people under his command! There were more than 700 high-level players. Although Biao Wang was an E-level boss, he was surrounded by a group of melee professions above level 38, plus hundreds of mages and archers outside. How could he bear it? It was over in ten minutes. Once Biao Wang died, there was no leader. The large group of Biao monsters ran around like headless flies, and Bage's team members actually formed a situation where they were chasing monsters.
With such a good opportunity, I naturally had to take advantage of the situation to counterattack. I was not in a hurry to return to the defensive wall. I led my fifteen knights and rushed straight to the place where the monsters were most concentrated, slashing and killing. Ha, just think of it as leveling up. Now the experience is three times the usual! Wouldn't it be a shame to myself if I don't kill a few more?
After a while, we had almost killed all the monsters that were purely fierce monsters, and various monsters gradually gathered around. I called starling and told him that we should return to the defense wall first, fearing that something might go wrong on the coast.
After all the personnel returned to the defense wall, the momentum was greatly boosted. There were nearly 1,500 players in total, which was a grand scene. After meeting with Xiao Yi, the three of them discussed and decided that the defense wall base would be handed over to the members of Tianshui Pavilion (because they were tired enough from fighting at this time, and it would be easier to rely on fortifications). Myna's troops would be responsible for repeatedly attacking and sweeping in the direction of the land, destroying as many monsters as possible, while the coast side would be handled by our Jinglei Alliance. After all, the number of monsters attacking from the ocean was still less than that from the land.
The plan was decided, and we each went our separate ways. I borrowed sixty of his men from Xiao Yi, and gathered a total of one hundred of my direct team members, together with Momo, Badao, and Xiaowu, and we rushed out in four directions, launching a fierce counterattack against the group of monsters.
In this way, my team and Myna's team respectively tied down most of the monster groups on both sides, with only a few monsters attacking the defense wall. The members of Tianshui Pavilion were almost resting.
Now that I have experience in killing sea monsters, everything else is easy. When I encounter a thorny crab, I don't attack it. I use my shield to block it and let the mage behind me take action. I have never encountered a dangerous situation since then.
Not long after, an ally from Tianshui Pavilion reported to me that another Boss attack had started on land, and this time the monsters were a pack of tigers!
My heart trembled. The Tiger King is a D-level Boss, which is not easy to deal with. Without me, even though Starling and his men have more people, they will probably have to pay a heavy price to kill the Tiger King. I pondered for a moment, looked at the monsters on the coast and saw that there was no movement. The battle was going very smoothly, so I ordered my captain, the God of the Divine Realm, to temporarily command this team of 100 to continue killing monsters. I rode alone and rushed back to the defense wall to support Starling.
When I rushed over, I saw that Xiao Yi also knew how powerful the situation was. He had already led a group of the strongest masters of Tianshui Pavilion to help. He immediately urged Black King to rush to the scene.
Because hundreds of players and tens of thousands of monsters were fighting fiercely together, the situation was very chaotic. I took a lot of effort to fight in the monster group for a long time before I found Myna. He and Xiaoyi were leading their men to besiege the Tiger King. As expected, the potions that exploded all around showed that many people had sacrificed their lives. I shouted, "Here I come!" and rode forward. Most of the alliance members knew me and scattered to both sides, making way for me.
Rushing into the battle circle, I saw the Tiger King roaring like thunder. It charged left and right surrounded by more than a dozen masters, with awe-inspiring power. The main reason was that its attack power was too terrifying. Players with a level below 40, even Blood Bull Warriors, could be easily killed instantly. In the short few seconds when I rushed towards it, I saw two warriors fall under its grasp. At the same time, the Tiger King's skill Earth Claws injured several people.
Naturally, I can't tolerate it being so presumptuous. First, I charged at it, and the Tiger King was hit and his movements were slowed down. Then, I used a hundred stabs. Hehe, I'll kill the Black King by surprise while his legs are still strong.
As expected, the Tiger King was dizzy after being hit by my continuous attacks, and he didn't even have the chance to gather his energy to launch the Tiger King Roar. Haha, this is perfect. Without the Black King, my fighting power would be greatly weakened!
Since I was facing the Tiger King head-on, the pressure on the masters around me was greatly reduced. Seeing an opportunity, they attacked one after another. The Tiger King was slashed with swords and knives, and his body was covered in blood. Moreover, without the threat of the Tiger King's Roar, the wizard archers on the periphery could attack more freely. Ice magic and ice arrows rained down, freezing the Tiger King from time to time, leaving the king of beasts with little chance to fight back.
No one expected that my participation alone would bring about such a big change in the battle situation. Some people even cheered and praised me. However, I did not dare to be careless or distracted. I just made full use of the fighting skills I learned in the past few days. I tried my best to grasp the right opportunity for each attack, disrupt the Tiger King's counterattack, and restrict the opponent's use of skills everywhere.
I'm sure I can't fight a D-level Boss one-on-one, but there are no less than thirty or forty masters besieging the Tiger King this time. Their encirclement restricted the Tiger King's range of movement. Coupled with the attack of magic bows and arrows, the Tiger King could not exert its power at all. After being ravaged by us for more than ten minutes, it collapsed, and several piles of gold coins and more than ten pieces of equipment exploded.
Since Xiao Yi and Myna came to help me last time, and I didn’t want the things that dropped after killing the Lion King, Xiao Yi and her men naturally won’t fight for it this time. Myna and I will each take half, and then go kill monsters separately!
This time, the monster attack on Tianshui Pavilion was indeed more difficult than our previous two times. After the Boss launched the attack, the offensive was like a tide. I had just fought my way back to the coast. The sea monsters among the sea monsters also gathered in large numbers. This monster looks a bit like a blue giant salamander. Its offense and defense are average, but its body has lightning properties. If you chop it with a knife, you will be electrocuted no matter what. But as long as it is not an attack reflection, I am not afraid of it. It's just that my skills are useless and I need to constantly replenish my life water.
Myna and Xiaoyi also mobilized people to support here. The leader of the sea fish, the mutated sea fish, was only an E-level Boss. Although its skills "Ring Electric Strike" and "Plasma Cannon" were quite powerful, they were only the nemesis of ranged professions. Melee professions, as long as the level was high enough and the HP was long enough, were able to withstand its attacks. More than a dozen masters surrounded it and killed it crazily, and this guy was dead. The monsters under his command were also killed one by one by us.
But the real crisis came after the large group of spiny crabs attacked. All of a sudden, all the soldiers hesitated, and we were gradually forced to retreat. After losing a lot of people, the battle line was compressed to the defense wall, and the entire beach was crowded with spiny crabs.
The crabs linked their limbs together to form a "human ladder" and climbed up the defensive wall. Those who were trapped underneath and unable to climb up began to use their large claws to remove the stones in the corners of the wall. This move was very vicious. After all, this was just a simple defensive structure and it would collapse soon.
Xiao Yi calmly issued orders, ordering all the soldiers to step forward but not to attack, and to use their bodies to hold back the thorny crabs that were climbing up the wall. The mage archers intensified their attacks from behind the soldiers, and another group of high-level magicians were organized to set off a wall of fire under the defense wall, covering the large group of crabs in a sea of fire, and roasting them alive.
This tactic can deal with ordinary monsters, but when eight giant thorny crabs that are taller than the defense wall when they stand up and a thousand-year-old crab covered with spikes like a mobile bunker appear, everyone's face changes. An attack from these guys may cause several breakthroughs in the defense line, and the warrior profession, which is most suitable for low resistance to boss attacks, is restrained by them. I really don't know what to do.
Xiao Yi bit her lower lip with her teeth, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Now, the only way to win is to sacrifice. Shepherd, you lead five soldiers to entangle the super boss. You can hold on as long as you can, but you must not let that guy get close to the defense line! Tianfu, you also take five people as the second team to support, and you go after Shepherd and the others are dead. Mengnan, you lead the third team..." Xiao Yi assigned her subordinates one by one, using the tactics of the death squad, hoping to delay time, eliminate the monsters first, and finally deal with the terrifying crab. After receiving the order, her subordinates had no objection and made preparations on their own, such as replacing the top-grade equipment on their bodies to prevent explosions, etc. Such strict orders show Xiao Yi's command skills. And her courageous style also makes me admire her. Even if it is a man, if he has to issue such an order that is clearly asking his subordinates to die, I am afraid he will hesitate in his heart and cannot be so decisive.
Xiao Yi said to me and Bage, "I'll leave those eight ordinary bosses to you guys!"
Myna and I nodded and divided the tasks between them. He would be responsible for five, and the Thunder Alliance would be responsible for three. There should be no problem.
I asked Momo and Xiaowu to lead their men to arrange defenses respectively. Ba Dao is strong in attack but weak in defense, so it is the least suitable for fighting against Thorny Crabs. I asked him to command and dispatch the troops from behind. I selected ten Blood Ox-type warriors, aimed at the direction where a giant crab was rushing, and went to meet it.
I didn't dare to use Tiger Soul, so I simply didn't need any weapons, equipped myself with a shield, and used Iron Wall. When the crab raised one of its claws and smashed down, I used all my strength to block it with the shield. There was a loud "bang" and my wrist was numb. This guy was so strong that the impact force of its claws was almost the same as that of weapons like a sledgehammer!
Ten warriors stood in a row beside me, standing tall like a mountain, using their bodies to block the monsters that came with the boss. I urged the mages and archers behind me, shouting, "Hurry up and shoot! We have to be the first to finish this guy off. We don't want to be outdone by Starling and the others. Let our friends at Tianshui Pavilion see our fighting power!"
I encouraged my brothers to fight back, and missiles and arrows were flying at me like crazy. The crab was hit by dozens of attacks and became even more furious, waving its claws wildly. But I was focused on defense and didn't retreat a single step. Although its attack power was strong enough, my iron wall was not given in vain. It greatly reduced the damage. Besides, with the sacrifice to replenish my blood and my own hard work of taking medicine, the crab had no chance to break through my defense.
But the crab's skill is also powerful. Suddenly, the bone spurs on its body shot out like thousands of sharp arrows, and I and the 10 people in the front row were injured at the same time! Fortunately, this skill is similar to the bad Golden Roc Spreading Wings, and there is a time limit for its use, otherwise it would be really unbearable.
Since I blocked the crab's attack, the long-range attack team members behind me could attack without restraint. After all, the crab is an ordinary boss and it could not withstand it. Soon the crab shell burst and the crab roe flowed all over the floor. This way of death actually aroused my appetite. I really want to have a crab feast right away!
I looked around along the defense line again. Lonely, Myna and the others were well organized. None of the crabs could break through the defense wall, and they were probably almost wiped out under the fierce attack of the mage archers. It's just that the super Boss in front was very powerful. The suicide squad members sent by Xiao Yi were basically killed instantly by its big claws. If we don't hurry up to eliminate the monsters, I'm afraid Xiao Yi will soon have no soldiers to send.
It was really inconvenient for Tiger Soul to deal with the thorn crab, so I ordered a warrior to take over my defensive position, stepped back a little, took out the bow and arrow, and joined the attack. The battlefield now belonged to magicians and archers, with colorful magic missiles flying all over the sky, and various arrows with magic attributes like locusts, and occasionally mixed with Taoist talismans, sorcerers' five elements spells, etc. If it was at night, it would definitely be more beautiful than fireworks.
Just when Xiao Yi's soldiers were almost all killed or wounded, and Myna and I thought we had to send our brothers to stop Lao Xie, we received another reinforcement: the members of Tianshui Pavilion who had died in the earlier battle organized themselves in Lu Cun City and fought their way back to their base. There were quite a few of them, more than 300 members!
This way, it won't be so difficult for my brother and I. After all, it would be hard to explain to my subordinates if I let my brother die for someone else's business, although I am willing to pay the price for Xiao Yi.
With this batch of reinforcements, not only can Xiao Yi organize dozens more suicide squads, but half of them are also ranged professions. Our speed in killing monsters has greatly increased. There are fewer and fewer spiny crabs on the beach. The team members on the wall began to rush out and take the initiative to attack, chasing the scattered monsters from all directions.
When there was only one lonely old crab left on the battlefield, and all the monsters on the land side were either dead or escaped, we knew that we had won the battle, and this monster attack on the camp was over. The final task was to kill the old crab.
Although this guy is also a D-level boss, he is much stronger than the lion king and the tiger king. The most troublesome thing is that the warriors dare not attack it at all. Its attack reflection success rate is as high as 30%! And its pair of large claws swing left and right, with a wide attack range. In addition, it can spray venom from its mouth, and whoever gets close to it will be unlucky. Anyway, we don’t care about the defense line now. We command the crowd to evacuate. The long-range troops composed of hundreds of magicians and archers use the human wave tactics to slowly torture this guy. However, wherever it pounces, the alliance members there will be a mess, and there are always several people hanging under its large claws. It took nearly an hour to fight and sacrifice more than a hundred people (not including the price paid for entanglement before) to deal with this old crab. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the alliance members of Tianshui Pavilion cheered.
Next, Xiao Yi was busy arranging the remaining members to count the losses, take a rest, set the next gathering time, and prepare to continue developing the base. I called Ji Mo and asked him to lead the team back to the base, and told him to tell the profiteer to prepare for the rewards of the members who fought today and the pensions for the dead, but I stayed behind. Ji Mo laughed maliciously and said repeatedly: "I understand, the leader has some private matters to deal with. I dare not disturb you. Goodbye. I will take care of the affairs of the alliance. You can go without worry." As he spoke, he looked back and forth at Xiao Yi and Wan Xing who was helping her, and said to himself: "Boss is really amazing, killing two birds with one stone..."
I kicked him far away and said angrily, "I'm just doing something serious. What are you thinking about?"
Lonely got up and clasped his fists and said: "Haha, that's right, that's right. How can the boss's lifelong event not be a serious matter? I will take people back to the headquarters now and wait for good news!" After saying that, he turned around and ran away. Damn it!
