Volume 4: People who challenge the light Chapter 27 The Yellow Bird Behind
Chaos, extreme chaos! The situation was already tense and ready to explode. The resurrection of Nobody in the middle of the night became the fuse that triggered the melee. In the places where Nobody passed in the middle of the night, the positions of the enemy and us were immediately clear. Those who protected him and those who hunted him were in a mess. Some overly nervous players even attacked all strangers who dared to approach them indiscriminately. Many people died of manslaughter. This was not a light and dark war of rescue and pursuit, but more like a large-scale player fight. Both sides showed extreme disorganization and lack of discipline. Most of the participating players acted only on their own feelings. The chaos gradually spread outward, causing other players to become nervous. If they didn't like it or had a disagreement, they would immediately draw their swords against each other. The entire White Tiger City area fell into turmoil.
I leisurely hid in a bush, constantly contacting Afeng and the others to learn about the latest battle situation. I have already commanded Red Star to kill Yeban Wuren once, which can be regarded as revenge for his plot. I'd better give others the opportunity to vent. The most important thing is that the situation has evolved so chaotically that it is beyond my imagination. Even hiding in such a remote place, I can see the figures of players from time to time. Once I show my tracks, how many players who tend to be light-oriented will I, a "red man", attract to chase me? Even if Red Star and Blood Bat are powerful, if ten or eight players rush up at once, I'm afraid I can only flee in panic - powerful high-level undead are not afraid of fighting, and I, a necromancer, am very fragile. Capture the thief first, this is the best tactic to deal with necromancers exposed by "Sky Media". Even a strong figure like Long Xing Tian Xia had to stay away from the battlefield for fear of becoming the target of public criticism. Ah Feng also warned me again and again to be careful and not to act rashly. Alas, if I had known this would happen, I would not have joined in the fun. In a melee involving thousands of players, the power of an individual is too insignificant, especially when it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, and without reliable people to protect you, you might be killed by an unknown enemy if you are not careful. Even if you want to kill the enemy, you will be powerless to turn the tide!
I summoned Taotao, Hongxing and "Bat Man" to spread out around and take charge of guarding. Unfortunately, with my current mental strength, I am unable to summon two blood bats at the same time. I can only summon one for the time being, and it alone takes up most of my mental strength.
The number of players attached to the two camps decreased as they were killed. However, Yeban Wuren was attacked the most because he was too obvious. He was constantly moving and did not have many helpers . When the dark profession "Eradication Team" entered the battle, Yeban Wuren was attacked several times in succession. It is said that he was seriously injured once and had to stop moving forward temporarily and hide in a place called Baishui Town to defend and wait for help. The "Eradication Team" was composed of some level 7 undead wizards and magic knights, led by several level 8 NPCs. If it were not for the human wave tactics, it would be difficult to resist their attacks.
Almost all the players flocked to Baishui Town. I was in the opposite position, so naturally fewer people came. Anyway, it wouldn't make much difference if I was one more or one less in such a big scene. It would be easier to hide here and listen to Afeng's live broadcast. Hua Mantian and Yamato Spirit had already rushed to Ye Ban Wu Ren. The players guarding the inner layer were all from Huadu and Sun Never Sets, and the defense was quite tight. However, the dark professions on the Eastern Continent had existed from the beginning. The "Emergency Mobilization" almost summoned all the dark professions players on the entire continent. The power of the Church of Light had not yet developed, and most of the people sent out were "conscripts". The overall strength was not superior to theirs. In addition, the dark camp also had a group of NPC masters, the "Eradication Team", so it might not be so easy for Ye Ban Wu Ren to escape from Baishui Town. I really didn't expect Hua Mantian to misjudge the situation and make such a mistake. If he had let Ye Ban Wu Ren escape to Baihu City, the forces of both sides would have been relatively dispersed, and if he was lucky, he might have had a glimmer of hope. Now it is obvious that they have to gather their respective forces for a head-on decisive battle. Long Xing Tian Xia has already brought Ba Jiu Gao Ge and others to Baishui Town. According to the strength comparison between the two sides estimated by him and A Feng, Ye Ban Wu Ren and Hua Mantian have no chance of winning at all.
The two sides have already started fighting. On Yehanwu's side, there are two top masters, Hua Mantian and Yamato Jingxing, leading the charge. On our side, Long Xingtianxia is unanimously elected to take full command. The NPCs of the "Anti-Traitor Team" also cooperate with our offensive and try to rush into the town from time to time, which brings great pressure to Hua Mantian and the others.
Suddenly, Xiaobai, who was conducting aerial reconnaissance, sent a message that a dozen people were coming this way. I hurriedly cut off contact with Afeng and carefully hid my body. It was already this late, why were there still people coming to join in the fun?
There were twelve people in total, with blond hair and white skin, all of them were players. Judging from their professions, they were either Bishops of Light or Elite Knights of Light. They were walking in a hurry, and judging from the direction they were heading towards Baishui Town. They might be the ones sent by the Church of Light to rescue the few light players from the Western Continent who were alone in the middle of the night. It was a pity that there were twelve of them too many. Otherwise, with the help of me who had summoned two blood bats, Red Star and Xiaobai, and then two dark knights, I might be able to kill them. Killing light players and NPCs would reward you with extra seniority points, and it could also increase your own professional merits.
I wasn't sure I could wipe them out completely and I didn't want to cause trouble, so I finally suppressed the urge to take action and watched them disappear from my sight. If only twelve of us had rushed over, we would have been courting death. I don't know which guys would have gotten away with it. It was such a pity.
After a while, another group of people passed by nearby. They were dressed in similar clothes and were twelve players of the Light System. They were still heading towards Baishui Town. What were they doing? They had just rushed over there, so why did they turn back? Everyone had a map, so it was impossible for them to get lost. Baishui Town was in a fierce battle, so why didn't they rush over to support? Were they afraid of death and hiding here to slack off? It seemed that the elites of the Church of Light had all been sent to the southern continent, and those who were sent to rescue the empty town in the middle of the night were all low-quality players with no professional ethics.
When the third group of players passed by nearby, I finally realized something was wrong. Although the players in the teams had the same professional composition, seven knights and five priests, there were some differences in their body shapes and equipment. These were three different teams. Something was wrong. I couldn't help but take a breath. This was not a major traffic route. It was said that only a small number of players were sent by the Church of Light to support the night. If that was true, there was no reason for me to encounter thirty-six of them. I would never believe that this was just a coincidence.
I waited anxiously for them to pass, and immediately sent a warning to Long Xing Tianxia - I found that many Western light-class players rushed to Baishui Town, and reminded him to pay attention. If this is a conspiracy of the Church of Light, most of the dark-class players in the Eastern Continent have gathered here, and they can save the people who were not in danger in the middle of the night and severely injure us, which should be extremely beneficial for rapidly expanding the influence of the Church of Light. The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind. This trick played by the Church of Light is really not simple.
I hesitated for a moment, but decided to rush over to see the situation. I didn't want to be beaten too badly by the players of the Church of Light. If the news got out, I would be in big trouble. If the situation was really bad, I would log off immediately. Even if no one escaped in the middle of the night, I couldn't let the players of the Church of Light get away with it. I moved forward carefully all the way, but before I got to the place, I was suddenly attacked without any warning. Five "holy light bullets" were shot at me quickly. Fortunately, I was cautious in such a dangerous place. I used the "three shields to protect my body" and swayed left and right to avoid two "holy light bullets". The opponent's attack power didn't seem to be strong, and it didn't cause much damage to me.
Twelve figures slowly flashed around and surrounded me in the center. They were a small team of seven elite knights and five bishops. I had originally planned to launch a sneak attack on them, but unexpectedly, I was ambushed by them instead. Once attacked, there was no way to get offline immediately. I immediately summoned two dark knights to guard in front of me, ready to fight them head-on.
"Haha, we originally thought that the ambush here could only catch some small fish and shrimps trying to escape from the encirclement, but we didn't expect to run into a 'wanted criminal'. It seems that his crime is not light. It's really our luck. Killing him should increase us a lot of merit." An elite knight riding a mammoth has treated me as a dead man, with a look of joy on his face.
"Charlie, don't be careless. Look at the mount he's riding. It seems to be the legendary Hell Skeleton Horse, which is the pet of the undead wizard Ah Dai. If this 'red man' is really the famous 'number one wizard in the world', it will take some effort for us to kill him." A knight next to me, who was also riding a mammoth, stared at me. He seemed to have some experience, but still looked confident in their strength.
"Oh, is he really the 'World's No. 1 Wizard' Ah Dai who possesses a divine weapon?" The speaker was the only female bishop among the twelve people. She was quite pretty and looked at me curiously. "He is short, plain-looking, and too thin. He doesn't look very good at all. He doesn't have any heroic spirit at all."
There wasn't a single positive comment, which was really depressing. But looking at the figures of these Westerners, even the woman who was speaking was taller than me, I couldn't refute it.
With a "whoosh", another "Holy Light Bullet" flew by. Although I dodged it easily, I was attacked again. If I wanted to take the opportunity to log off, it would be impossible. "I've seen him in the 'Four Continents Elite Challenge'. It should be that Ah-Dai. He's not good-looking, but he's cunning. His second job is a thief. He's quite skilled in dodging. Don't underestimate him." The attacker further confirmed my identity and still didn't make any positive comments about me.
"Okay, stop talking to him. No matter who he is, as long as he is an enemy, he must die. The attack over there has probably already begun. Kill him quickly, or we may run into other escaped fish later." A knight spoke, his tone and expression were cool, and judging by the reactions of the crowd to his words, he seemed to be the small leader of this group of people.
They really treat me like a dead man. Of course, if it is a normal situation, twelve players of the same level 5 professions will fight against me alone. Unless the opponents are all idiots, there is no chance of winning. But now I am not fighting alone. Xiaobai and Bat Gong and Bat Po are following me in the sky, and there is a red star hidden not far behind me. In addition, there are two summoned dark knights. The reason why I gave up the initiative to attack before was that I felt that I was not sure of annihilating them. Now they are bullying me to the point of being too rude. If I don’t teach them a lesson, I will know my own limitations. Besides, even if I really can’t beat them, I can still break through with Taotao’s speed. A few rhinos and elephants want to catch up with Taotao who has evolved twice. Dream on.
The most important thing is to withstand their first wave of attacks, and at the same time use the Red Star and the two blood bats to launch a surprise attack, and try to kill those bishops. The remaining knights may seem powerful, but without the auxiliary magic abilities of the priests, their abilities will be discounted, and they will not be able to last long.
The enemy had more people and they attacked me at the same time. Although I had Taotao and two dark knights to cover me, I used "Three Shields", "A Rider Away" and "Shadow Shift" to dodge as much as I could. I relied on the "damage conversion" function of "Dark Demon Robe" and even used the protective ability of "Touch of Death", but I was still hit hard. I finally got rid of the enemy's entanglement and my health was only reduced to one third.
But the enemy was also helpless at this time. While they were attacking me with all their strength, I showed my figure and blew the wind on them to interfere with their attack. The red star had already accumulated enough strength, and used the "flash combo" to target the bishops. The bat man and bat woman also flew behind the two bishops and transformed into human form. The opponent's strength was quite different from theirs, so the distance of transformation was relatively close. Although the player was more agile and changeable than the NPC, sometimes the reaction to sudden events was not as direct as the NPC. They would be disturbed by their own cognition, and they were stunned for a moment, and then they hurriedly dodged. The nearby companions did not come back to rescue in time. With the speed of the priest, the consequences of being close to the melee profession can be imagined. He was torn to pieces under the ghost claws. The death was really miserable. This blood bat was too violent.
Two of the other three bishops were killed in succession by Red Star's "flash combo". Only the MM was the last target to be attacked. Two nearby knights reacted and tried their best to rescue her. At the cost of one death and one serious injury, they withstood the impact of Red Star. The MM bishop who had fled to the side without caring about her image had not had time to breathe a sigh of relief. After receiving my instructions, the bloody claws of the bat man had already reached her back, and the bloody claws of the proud western beauty were added to the vital parts of the body. First, in accordance with Afeng's "teachings", we should not be too rude to female players and try not to let them die too ugly; second, the way of tearing people into pieces is a little too stimulating to the senses. Killing people and destroying the bodies are just hostile to each other because of different positions, and there is no deep hatred. There is no need to be so ruthless.
