Starting From Zero

Chapter 84 Super Baby

"Quiz?" I was shocked by the hatching method written on the attributes. The previous owner of the rabbit may have forgotten to tell us about this problem. I can probably think of the reason, because compared to the combat ability, this incubation method is really not a big problem.

According to what is written on the attributes, the rabbit may not have been a rabbit before, because the attributes say that this thing has no fixed form at all. The rabbit shape we saw before came entirely from the imagination of the previous owner. Whenever a rabbit turns into an egg, it will chocolateize in its last form. After that, it will have to answer questions. If it can think of a new image within ten questions, it can be hatched. Otherwise, the image will be reselected, and then it will have to go through the process again. Ten questions.

"Boss." A member suddenly called me.

"What?"

"Did you notice a problem?"

"Problem? What problem?" I asked, looking around, and jumped up in surprise. "What happened?" I suddenly found that the environment around us had changed again. Previously, we automatically exited the illusion after successfully capturing it, but the problem is that now the surrounding environment has begun to change again. Those green towering trees are gradually turning into the form of cloth paintings, while the sky and the earth are also rapidly distorting. The entire world around us is rapidly transforming into a state of cloth embroidery.

"Hahahaha..." Arrogant laughter suddenly appeared, and the owner of that voice was actually the chocolate rabbit.

"Aren't you already sealed? Why can you still speak?" A member next to me asked in surprise.

"Do you think Mr. Baobao is so easy to bully? Well, let me tell you, as long as you can't really turn me into a demon pet, I can continue to fight even in my current form."

"Hmph, you don't have to be a demon pet to become a demon pet." My member immediately said to me: "President, please accept him as soon as possible."

"Yeah." I quickly walked to the chocolate rabbit, and then after thinking about it, I switched to the silver moon form. I heard from the rabbit's previous owner that it was difficult to increase his loyalty, so I planned to use Silver Moon's demonic charm to tame this rabbit. First of all, according to the general rules of recognizing the owner of a magic pet, the blood will be shed first.

Although the rabbit screamed fiercely, it did not cause any real harm except that the surrounding world quickly turned into canvas. When my blood dripped on the rabbit's head, the rabbit quickly melted into a puddle of chocolate mud, and then It flew into the air again to form a chocolate ball, and at the same time the rabbit's voice came out of the ball.

"Although Mr. Baobao is very reluctant, the rules are the rules. You have given me your love in my egg state, so you must answer Mr. Baobao's questions. Realize that I have decided my new image based on your memory, And a skill will be specially evolved for you based on your abilities and characteristics, but if you cannot outline my general shape in your brain within ten questions, I will change the image again, but the second image will definitely not be as powerful as the first image. , and the specially evolved skill is gone. If you guess wrong again, I will become a very ordinary familiar, but if you guess wrong the third time, I will automatically hatch into a wild creature, and then the baby will be free. . Then, I hope you guess all of them wrong, hahahaha...!"

"You talkative chocolate ball, ask a question."

"Hmph, when Master Baobao is free, you will taste Master Baobao's anger. Okay, now listen to my first description. You don't need to answer my questions, just imagine me in your brain based on my description. The shape is enough, no matter how many questions I go through, I will stop describing it as soon as the correct answer appears. First, I will be soft."

The rabbit paused for a long time after saying that he was soft. In fact, not only me, but also the members of our nearby guild were imagining the shape of this guy. A player stopped after hearing what he said and couldn't help but ask: "Is this the end?"

"Well, that's it. That's the first description."

"Is it too short?"

"If you don't listen, I'll knock you down. You're not a contract player anyway." Rabbit didn't want to throw away the player at all. "Now stop the second description. I will be very translucent." Seeing no reaction from us, he continued: "The third description. My form will be fluid." After saying this, Chocolate The rabbit, or rather my new familiar, suddenly screamed. "Damn, how could you guess it with only three words? This is impossible!"

As he yelled, the chocolate ball in front of us suddenly shrank violently into a small black dot, and then exploded like an explosion, spewing out a large group of gel-like translucent substance. Things exploded everywhere, covering all the people near us.

"Damn, what is this? Is it so disgusting?" A player desperately scratched at the snot-like translucent gel on his body.

A player next to him reached out and put some of the stuff in front of his nose and smelled it. "Fortunately, there is no strange smell."

"By the way, President, where is your magic pet? Why did it suddenly explode? Shouldn't it be turned into a magic pet?"

"This seems to be it!" As I was talking, the gels that had just exploded started to squirm slowly, which frightened the people even more and threw everything they had on them down. Fortunately, these gels are not very adhesive, and they seem to crawl down on their own.

The gel that was thrown off began to come together quickly. The scene was just like the liquid metal robot in a science fiction movie, but this guy's speed was much slower. The gel that gathered together began to rapidly stretch upwards and finally turned into something like a big peanut standing on the ground. The upper hemisphere of this translucent jelly-like thing suddenly opened a pair of eyes, and then opened a mouth-like slit.

"Haha, I'm reborn again. ...Strange, why do I say again? Hey, are you my master? Why do I feel you are so kind?" The newly born jelly monster looked at me and asked.

"I am your new master, you will call me baby from now on."

"Baby? Is this my name? It feels so kind! The baby likes this name very much, and I will call him baby from now on."

I don’t know if it’s my monster-level charm that interferes with it or something else. In short, there seems to be a serious problem with the baby’s memory. Many things have been erased. At least he doesn’t remember fighting with me at all. , maybe this is the power of rules. The previous owner of the baby said that it is difficult to cultivate the baby's loyalty and it will fall off if you are not careful. Now it seems that it may be because they have no experience in raising pets and their own charm is too low. The requirements for high-level pets are relatively high, and they can be said to be very difficult to maintain. Players who only have one or two magic pets want to recruit such magic pets, which will inevitably make it difficult to increase their loyalty. Besides, except for professional animal trainers like me, , the average player also lacks the corresponding skills and is not suitable for taming high-level familiars at all. Maybe when "Zero" was designed, it was not intended to allow every player to bring a high-level pet, so it added so many restrictions.

After successfully recruiting familiars, the illusion near us finally disappeared again, and I walked back with all the members. On the way, I carefully checked the baby's various attributes, and finally came to the conclusion that this is a very scary guy.

The baby's skills are mainly divided into three major series, namely "Interference System", "Doll System" and "Virtualization System". The interference system refers to the spells and attacks that interfere with the enemy's release. For example, the lava bomb fired by our fire mage ended up turning into a large ball of ketchup. This skill was responsible for this. Through this skill, the baby can theoretically turn any spell released by the enemy into various harmless attacks. Of course, this skill requires a certain amount of mana. If the spell released by the enemy consumes too much, the baby cannot transform it.

The so-called doll system is specially designed to target living creatures. Its effect is to turn a creature into a doll made of various materials. This change consumes a lot of money, and the range of use is very short. It must be close to a certain range to take effect. However, once it is successfully released, the target will turn into a soft doll. In addition to the decrease in physical energy, the defense will also drop to the bottom. It can be called the ultimate in melee combat. A sure kill, especially for players like Zhenhong who rely on their fists to make a living. How hard do you think a stuffed toy's fist can be?

The last virtualization system has the largest interference range among the three systems. It can produce illusions and turn a large area into a world that the baby likes. In this world, there are generally only a few choices. One is the world of desserts. For example, Union City fell into this trick, and the whole city turned into desserts. There is also the cloth world we encountered when we were trapped. Almost all things in that world are made of flannel, and the world will become flat, and everyone will become as thin as a layer of cloth. The third world is the crayon world, which is worse than the velvet cloth. At least the velvet cloth has a somewhat three-dimensional effect. The crayon world will turn the surrounding environment into the state of paper, and all objects will look like the crayon drawings of kindergarten children. The kids might love that world, but we would be absolutely out of luck. In addition, according to the baby himself, there is also a dream world, which is even more terrible. The dream world becomes a dream, characterized by the fact that nothing obeys the laws of physics anymore. In a dream, you can cross thousands of miles in one step, but you may never escape an environment as big as a table. There are no rules in this kind of world, and it definitely belongs to the level of killing someone without paying for it. But the conditions for activating this dream world are very harsh, and the consumption is very high.

In addition to the above three major systems, current babies also have some things similar to inherent attributes. These things are not skills, but can actually be used in combat. For example, the explosive splitting method just now is one of them. The baby is now like a jelly, which means that it actually has no fixed shape. You can flatten and round it at will, it doesn't matter. Even if it is cut into pieces, it can be fused again, unless you completely burn it with fire or use The strong acid corrodes him, otherwise physical attacks won't kill him. Of course, spell damage will still take effect, and the baby's resistance to magic is very low. It can almost be said that there is no spell resistance. This can be said to be a weakness.

Along the way, we also learned a very fortunate thing, that is, the baby's spells have a stable period of 24 hours. Once a spell is cast by him for more than 24 hours, the damage will be solidified, such as our United City We were hit by his Dessert World spell before. If we don’t defeat it within twenty-four hours, then the city in the real game world will really turn into a dessert, and for example, the city walls that were chewed off by the guy from Big Pot Rice will be It is really eaten away and will not recover after the illusion disappears. This attribute can be said to be extremely terrifying, but it also has many limitations. First of all, the baby cannot cast spells immediately within twenty-four hours, and his fantasy world is only allowed to be used once within forty-eight hours. Whether it is the dessert world or any other world, it cannot be changed after use. Previously, we were affected by the Dessert World and the Cloth Painting World because the baby changed form once in the middle so that we could cast two spells in succession. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to succeed.

When we returned to United City, the city had returned to normal, and the city walls that had been chewed up by the big pot of rice had not changed much. According to Baobao, as long as the illusion is less than twenty-four hours old, no matter how much damage occurs inside, it will not affect the outside environment when it returns to normal. However, this twenty-four-hour limit only applies to the virtual world and dolls that are used directly on the human body. There is no such restriction. Another thing is that we learned that the area pulled into the illusion will actually be closed. Although you can still enter, no matter what you do to damage it, it will be restored when the illusion is restored. In other words, it is impossible to use this trick to pretend everyone is away. Take the opportunity to occupy other people's cities, because when the city returns to normal, it will automatically restore and force out all the people who should not be in the city.

Due to the previous attack on Union City, a lot of work that we should have completed has now been delayed. The main problem is that our contact with our allies in country h has been interrupted for too long, causing coordination problems between the two parties. The pro-China guild of Country H, headed by Park Eun's Tianji Alliance, has been trying to contact us before, but due to the sudden disappearance of our people, the contact could not be carried out. As a result, the allies of Country H thought that we had been attacked. Although we were indeed attacked, this attack was different from the attack they understood.

In order to keep it secret, we did not tell Park Yin all the battle plans, so players in Country H only knew that once our United City was attacked, it would be equivalent to a full-scale war. So the current situation is that our allies launched a counterattack in advance.

"What should we do now?" All the leadership of our guild were present in Essinger's conference hall.

Su Mei held her chin, thinking like a little adult, and said: "Since Park Yin and the others took action in advance, it means that the RB people will definitely know that the plan has been exposed, so if my guess is correct If so, RB people will have two choices."

"Give up or make a desperate move?" Rose asked directly, having fully understood what Su Mei meant.

"With your thinking mode, you probably won't give up, right?" Shura Ziyi said.

Hongyue nodded. "RB people don't know what giving up means. They only worry about not eating enough. As for whether they can swallow it...that's not a question they think about."

"Then your opinion is that the Japanese people will go all out, right?" I looked at everyone's face.

"I know it, yes." Su Mei affirmed.

"Then..." I slammed the table hard and stood up directly. "Inform all departments and our partners that plans have been moved forward."

According to the information we learned from the Queen Mother's tombstone before, the Japanese should let the Europeans attack Ashford's Iron Crusaders first, and then attract our guild to send troops and reinforcements, and then follow them to attack our home city and Gather all the forces that are against our guild to carve up our city around the world. This trick can be said to be very simple and very effective, but the RB people miscalculated because they did not know that we knew the situation in advance.

Because we know the situation in advance, it is naturally impossible for us to be led away by rb people. Originally, we planned to wait for the Japanese to launch a full-scale attack and then launch a surprise attack to catch them off guard. The Japanese tried to harm us by trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but we used the trick to counterattack them. But the two of us were scheming and scheming, but in the end we came up with a plan that couldn't keep up with the changes. The sudden siege of United City caused players from Country H to take action in advance, and RB would soon learn from those pro-Japanese Country H that those who attacked them were all forces from Country H that were pro-our guild. These pro-us H country guilds are like our little brothers. If they go out individually, it can be understood as an individual act, but if they go out together, even a fool will know what we mean. According to rb's plan, we should be mobilizing troops to support the Iron Cross Army now, and the guild is in a period of insufficient troops. At this time, normal people would definitely choose to shrink their defenses and hope that fewer things would happen. How could they go around fanning the flames? But now the actions of the National H Guild that are pro-us clearly indicate that we intend to open a second battlefield. This behavior only represents two possibilities. One is that the leadership of our guild has a collective mental illness, and the other is that we have not sent troops to reinforce the Iron Crusaders at all. Although Ghost Hand Nobunaga is a reckless man, he is not so stupid that he cannot even understand this truth, so he will definitely infer the fact that we already know their plan, and their actions will definitely change afterwards. .

The fact is as we expected, and in fact, at the same time that our guild was holding a high-level meeting, rb was also having a meeting.

Ghost-handed Nobunaga was circling back and forth in front of a world map. Suddenly he stopped and slapped the table hard. "I don't care how the news leaked. This is not the point now. The point is that our strategic plan must be adjusted. Immediately inform our allies in Europe and stop feinting. The Frost Rose Alliance will not be fooled at all. They have long been Got the news. Now their mission is to capture Iron Cross City as soon as possible, and then use the remaining troops to help us deal with the Frost Rose Alliance."

"I'll go notify you right away." A Japanese warrior immediately turned around and ran out.

After issuing the order, Ghost-Hand Nobunaga continued to circle around uneasily. After that, new orders were issued one after another. The rb players below ran to execute his orders one after another, and in the end, only the A player wearing a mask.

"Actually, you don't need to worry so much." The masked man spoke.

"Why?"

"It's very simple. Even if Ziri knows our plan for some reason now, do you think he has the ability to mobilize enough troops in such a short period of time to deal with the team we have accumulated for so long? Besides, even if he has that With so many troops, do you think our secret weapon is fake?"

Ghost Hand Nobunaga said with great certainty: "If it were someone else, I wouldn't dare to say, but if it's Ziri, I can definitely tell you that he can."

"Are you so sure?"

"There is a saying that the person who knows you best is often your enemy. This is probably the case for Ziri and me."

"Hahahaha...!" The masked man laughed arrogantly. "I don't mind if you treat Ziri as his biggest enemy to get to know me, but Ziri may not necessarily regard you as his biggest enemy, because... his biggest enemy should be me." The masked man suddenly took off his mask, The face revealed inside was clearly the crow I had defeated before in Europe. "That idiot Ziri actually thought that I would go against him for that stupid woman Venus. Now he must have put all his hatred on Venus. Hum, that kind of golden-haired woman can't lift me up at all. any interest.”

"Don't be too proud." Ghost Hand Nobunaga reminded: "Even if the plan fails, all we lose is nothing more than an opportunity, but you Indonesians really don't think about anything. This time it's because of the I only agreed to help you with the funds you provided and your strength, so you'd better be more vigilant and complete our plan at once."

"Huh, if you have strength, you don't have to worry about anything. This is what you taught us." Crow said arrogantly.

Ghost Hand Nobunaga frowned but said nothing. He was too lazy to say anything to these uncultured natives.

Compared to the chaos on Ghost Hand Nobunaga's side, the situation here is not much better. Both parties suddenly find that the other party knows their secrets, and it is impossible to continue as planned. But what’s better about me than Nobunaga Kishou is that I have more people who can give ideas, so I don’t have to do everything by myself. After simply laying out the general direction, everyone else started to go about their own business.

Time slipped by quietly amidst tension and chaos. In the early morning of the second day, Beijing time, it was still afternoon time on the European side. The troops attacking Iron Cross City suddenly began to retreat, but Asiu Fu, who was standing at the head of the city, De didn't smile at all.

"It finally started!" Ashford sighed.

Lu Wei, who was standing next to Ashford, asked in confusion: "Didn't the enemy already start to retreat? Why are you still so depressed?"

"Because this is not a retreat at all."

"Purple sun?" Ashford suddenly turned around excitedly when he heard my voice. "You are finally willing to come over. If it were any later, it would be completely over for me!"

"Tch, do you think you're the only one who's so busy?" Ashford and I talked about what happened in Country H, and Ashford was shocked when he heard that.

"Now that this matter has come to this, what decision do you think the RB people will make?" Ashford asked me nervously.

"I've come to your side and you still don't know what the rb people have decided?"

"You mean...?" Ashford glanced at the British and French troops outside the city who were slowly retreating. "Do they regard me as the main battlefield?"

"Absolutely!" I looked at Ashford, and then explained: "The Japanese decided to switch to a feint attack as the main attack. Originally, the attack on Iron Cross City was just to attract our attention, so they have been using cannon fodder units to create pressure, but now The plan was exposed, so they decided to take down Iron Cross City."

"Then this is not the main battlefield?"

"No, you are not, because the RB people have no intention of giving up the original plan."

"Are you so sure?" Ashford didn't quite believe the source of my intelligence.

I patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, my information is absolutely reliable. Moreover, the analysts in our guild also speculated this way. The intelligence shows that it is exactly the same as the speculation. I think there should be no problem. Now the rb people's plan is to let the British and French coalition forces take you here Defeat it first, and then there is no need to attract any troops, just let them send the remaining troops to Asia to directly interfere in our battle with Japan."

"What about your countermeasures?"

"Countermeasures?" I smiled: "Since you already know that this is a countermeasure, why are you asking me what countermeasures are there?"

"Countermeasure?...Countermeasure!...Countermeasure? Do you want to do the exact opposite?"

Ashford was no fool, and he certainly understood the deeper meaning of my charade. What we mean is to go against the rb people. As the saying goes, one force can defeat ten guilds. Since we have this fighting power, there is no need to play tricks with the Japanese people. In fact, orthodox tactics are the most effective tactics on the battlefield. Although orthodox tactics are often broken by some surprise soldiers, the fact that so many people still use them in this situation shows that orthodox tactics have the strongest effect under normal circumstances. Tactical effect. So the advice our guild think tank gave me was: since both sides’ schemes have been seen through, let’s just stop using schemes and go head-to-head. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. Whoever can persevere to the end is the winner.

rb means to settle the European battlefield first, because here the British and French coalition forces have an absolute advantage over the Iron Crusaders. They hope to get it done here first and then concentrate on opening a second battlefield in country h, and then push back into China. The plan is fairly simple, but it's a very effective tactic. It can play a role of continuing the force layer by layer, relying on the power of the victorious soldiers to win small battles along the way and finally achieve overall victory. Under this tactic, the enemy's combat effectiveness will be like a car rushing down a hillside. The higher it is, the easier it will be to intercept it. By the time the car reaches the corner of the mountain, it will be overwhelming and unstoppable.

As long as you understand these paths, making appropriate arrangements is relatively simple.

The troops outside the city were mobilizing rapidly. Those cannon fodder troops quickly retreated beyond the fire range of Iron Cross City. Then they saw a large number of troops mobilizing over there. However, because the distance was too far, only dense black formations could be seen. The 'color' square array is moving, and other things cannot be seen clearly.

It took about three hours for the formation change to finally end. Thanks to the two consecutive days of high-intensity fighting that consumed too much damage, the total number of more than 100 million British and French coalition forces has finally dropped to less than 100 million. However, The number is still as high as 90 million, and the number of cannon fodder only accounts for about two-thirds, which means that there are at least 3 million regular troops here.

Within three hours, those cannon fodder troops were dispersed and divided into the forward parts of some main battle groups. The advantage of this is that it reduces the density of elite troops without reducing the density of personnel. The result is that it makes our fire strikes more difficult. .

After the reorganization of the army, the large British and French forces began to gradually move forward. Ashford quickly informed each artillery position not to fire yet. The front width of Iron Cross City is only a little over 15,000 meters, which means that it is not even wide enough for Essinger's second city wall. However, this also has the advantage that the area left for the enemy to charge has become relatively smaller. At 15,000 meters, even if one person is one meter, there can only be 15,000 people standing. In fact, the battle formation cannot be so densely packed. Even one person at two meters is too dense, not to mention "Zero" 》As a fantasy game, not all the troops here are human-sized, so in fact, the number of troops that can actually touch the city wall at the same time will not exceed 5,000. The British and French allied forces probably planned to fight quickly this time, so they arranged a battle formation with a front face of twenty plus one. This three plus one mode means that every twenty humanoid creatures are arranged in a horizontal row, followed by a large creature, followed by another twenty humanoid creatures. This arrangement is a panacea method, which has good destructive power against the city wall defense system of any strength and density, but it is definitely there, that is, it cannot fully exert its combat effectiveness. After all, this is a snake oil arrangement. Good general-purpose performance means insufficient special-purpose performance.

Since the enemy's troops are very chaotic, we can't figure out which of the twenty-man team is the elite and which has cannon fodder, but I have no doubt that those big guys are all elite.

The arrangement of the Iron Crusaders has also changed. Some low-level players have been replaced to the rear to start doing logistics work, while elite players have been moved to the front. As for the NPCs, they have all become auxiliary forces. The essence of the game is still the players. There are indeed high-end existences in NPC that surpass the players, but there are definitely not many of them.

As the British and French forces advanced, we gradually began to hear the sound of neat war drums and footsteps. Unexpectedly, the opponent actually used a military band this time, and even used the assault mode of the infantry square.

When the first row of soldiers began to follow the second row quickly, the British and French allied forces divided the troops using twenty rows as one area, which means that the infantry squares were all four hundred people per square. As for the large creatures, they only appear at the corners of each block, not in a row of twenty like humans. However, if you look for yourself, you will find that these large creatures are actually arranged in a square array, but the intervals are too large and difficult to spot. Every twenty large creatures means a large phalanx. This large phalanx is composed of 400 large creatures and 231 small human phalanxes, and its scale is also quite large. The British and French allied forces count such a large phalanx as a brigade, while each human phalanx is a small team, and large creatures are managed separately. This kind of command system was summed up in the long-term war in the game. Its advantages As long as a frontline commander is placed on each large creature, all squads can be managed repeatedly. Even if the commander on the large creature is killed, as long as there is one commander left in the four corners of a squad, it will not be lost. command.

"The other party is serious about it." I said to Ashford.

"I know." Compared with Ashford who was running around before, Ashford is calmer now. He was actually not afraid of failure before. He knew that that kind of feint attack would not achieve any actual results. The reason why he pretended to be so scared was to show off to the enemy on the other side, and on the other hand, he hoped that I could help him reduce his burden. . Although the enemy can't do anything to him, he is not stupid. Of course he hopes to lose less troops. With this guy's stinginess, he is not willing to waste cannon fodder. Now that he no longer has to perform, Ashford has naturally returned to normal. After moving his neck, he stood on the amplified magic circle and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, the warm-up is over, it's time to get serious."

"Roar..." A cheer suddenly erupted from the city wall, and cracks suddenly opened on the ground on some city walls, and a large number of weapons that had never appeared before were raised.

"You still have a secret weapon hidden?" These things surprised me. After all, Ashford never mentioned this thing in the original plan.

Ashford said with a smile: "Do you want it? This thing is very good."

"Let me see the combat effectiveness first."

"Don't worry, you'll see it soon."

These newly emerged weapons are not big in size, about the same size as a mini car. Their appearance looks a bit like the anti-aircraft turrets installed on old battleships, but this thing has an extra layer of protective cover on the outside. Moreover, it has only one barrel and its caliber is very small.

As the enemy got closer, the defensive artillery on Iron Cross City began to fire. At the same time, the few remaining artillery units of the British and French coalition also began to fight back. Before the soldiers on both sides made contact, they saw various streams of light flying around and setting off one after another. The fireball carried a large number of people to high altitudes and tore them into pieces and scattered them on the ground.

Although the artillery fire was quite intensive, long-range firepower could not clear them one by one. Therefore, the enemy's formation did not suffer much loss except for the holes blown out one by one. The team was still advancing in an orderly manner. Soon when the enemy approached the mage's strike range, some of the enemies stopped. Obviously these were the enemy's spell strike troops. Their mission must be to suppress the mage and archer troops at the top of the city. However, it seemed like they were going to be out of luck today.

The strange weapons at the top of Iron Cross City suddenly moved. Each of these things was operated by two NPCs. One of them quickly shook the steering wheel, and the other directed the aiming. The hands of some magicians in the enemy army began to shine with the brilliance of magic power. However, just when the spell was about to be completed, the head of the magician suddenly exploded without warning. The people nearby were stunned for a moment, and then their heads began to explode one after another.

At this time, those small anti-aircraft cannon-like things on the top of the city were pressing the barrels under the city to face the group of mages, and then began to sound at the same time as the commander gave the order. To be honest, I was really scared by these things, because the way they fired looked so much like a machine gun. I saw the barrel of the thing suddenly recoiled due to the recoil force, then quickly rebounded, and then recoiled again. Every time the barrel expanded and contracted, it was accompanied by a burst of white smoke, and the speed was quite fast. After my calculations, this thing can basically achieve a speed of two rounds in three seconds. You must know that this is a game. There are indeed artillery here, but the power and range of those things are incomparable to reality. However, this kind of rapid-fire machine gun actually explodes with almost the same speed as the real machine gun. The power, at least so far, I have not seen any enemy block this attack.

The firing frequency of this rapid-fire cannon is quite high, and the sound is not very loud. However, the strange thing is that the sound of this thing is not the crisp blast of gunpowder weapons. On the contrary, it is very similar to the sound of a train's pressure valve exhaust. I soon discovered the secret of this thing.

"Is this a steam cannon?"

Ashford nodded proudly. "How about it? Our German engineers are the strongest engineers in the world."

"How did you make it? Isn't there a lack of precise processing equipment and reasonable propulsion technology in the game?"

"Hehe, this is not easy." Ashford said proudly: "I got some design drawings of new machine guns from the Internet before, and then found that it is impossible to produce those precision machine guns with the technology in the game, so I I also looked for a lot of design drawings of old machine guns, and finally I discovered a machine gun equipped by Germany during World War II. This kind of thing is actually an enlarged version of a machine gun, but its power and range have been reduced. But in After sacrificing size and range, the manufacturing process of this weapon has become simpler. Since the cost of gunpowder in the game is too high, we considered using magic crystals to directly heat the liquid to generate steam to propel the shells. The working principle of emission, and the main feature of steam equipment is that it does not require too high sealing performance. Because the steam pressure itself is not very high, a simple seal can ensure normal use. And because the volume is sacrificed Advantage, so the power of this thing is not reduced much. Although the projectile speed is not high, because the projectile is relatively large and the warhead is engraved with a magic breaking circle, the penetration and damage are quite considerable. How about it? Yes Interested in ordering?"

"I want to buy technology." The Frost Rose Alliance is not an ordinary guild. Our production technology is definitely no worse than that of the Iron Crusaders, so it is better for us to buy technology than finished products. Other guilds like to buy finished products because they can't produce them themselves. They have no choice but to buy finished products, so naturally we don't use them.

On the one hand, Ashford knew that I would not buy finished products, but on the other hand, he also understood that once I figured out the principle, it would be very easy to imitate, so he nodded readily. This would not only make a small profit but also increase our sales. Favorability.

In fact, I have another consideration when buying this thing, that is, our guild actually has the ability to modify and process it ourselves, so if possible, we might be able to get closer to the design of Ashford's steam cannon. step. I don't really want to build a universal machine gun that has a terrifying rate of fire and can be carried around by one person. I just want a gun with a long enough shooting range that can be equipped on ships and city walls. A small suppressive weapon that can even be pulled by a carriage. Now we are facing a major counterattack by the Japanese. If we had this thing, we would no longer have to deal with large-scale enemies.

Under our long-term cooperation with the Iron Crusaders, many things have become simpler. Since both parties agreed to directly fund the transaction, Ashford sent someone to help me send several sets of samples and drawings to our guild. Of course, There are technical instructors, otherwise it would not be that simple to just rely on drawings.

Since the structure of this thing itself is not too complex, and we have a strong technical foundation, our guild started trial production almost as soon as we got the drawings. As for the transformation, it may take some time to be effective, but then It's not what we should be concerned about now, because the enemy in front of us has already appeared in front of us.

The interception effect of the steam cannon was much better than expected, but there were too many enemies after all. Moreover, this thing was not as powerful as the automatic weapons in reality, so the enemies finally got close to the city wall, which meant that the losses were much higher than before. .

The soldiers of the British and French forces adopted a very strange attack method. Instead of summoning creatures when charging, they asked players to rush to the front line before starting to summon. Ashford and I were observing the battlefield when we suddenly saw a giant dragon appearing out of thin air, less than thirty meters away from us.

"Stand back." I took out eternity and strode forward in front of everyone.

"Be careful." 'Lu' Wei reminded.

"It's just a dragon." I raised Eternity, turned around in a circle, and swung a sword in the air. The nine sword energy separated from the blade and whizzed towards the dragon that suddenly appeared, and before he could react, There were nine huge wounds on his body. The giant dragon screamed unwillingly and fell down the city wall, knocking down a large number of its own people, but more people climbed up the city wall on the dragon's corpse. The remaining height of the more than 30-meter city wall covered by dragon corpses is no longer insurmountable, not to mention that most people in the game have flying or jumping skills.

I strode towards the edge of the city wall, and several enemies who had just rushed up the city wall immediately ran towards me. I kept walking, and with a wave of my hand, Eternity turned into a whip sword and swept out. The enemy originally thought that he would not be attacked at this distance, but he was immediately divided into two parts. After killing an enemy, I suddenly hunched over and rushed forward quickly. The enemy who had just climbed up the wall only saw a stream of light flashing past him, and then his body was inexplicably broken into two pieces.

By the time I rushed to the edge of the city wall, all the enemies on the wall had been killed by me. The enemies who saw me charging at the top of this wall were stunned for a moment. Although they were still moving forward, they were avoiding me intentionally or unintentionally. On this section of the city wall, after all, I killed two elites on the combat power list in front of them before. They all knew that beings like themselves, who were not even ranked in the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands on the combat power list, could not even fight. It can't be blocked by any move, so it's more practical to find other places to break through than to come up and die.

I stood on the top of the city wall and looked at the large swaths of enemies in front of me while quickly searching for targets worthy of my attack. For me, there is really no value in attacking a single enemy. It is more appropriate to leave the job of killing soldiers to soldiers. What I am looking for is the kind of powerful existence that can cause heavy losses to my own soldiers.

"Over there." Ashford suddenly pointed to the enemy's rear far away.

I took a closer look and found that he was indeed a troublesome guy. "Be careful." I spread my wings and flew up. When the people below saw me taking off, they immediately fired countless crossbows, but unfortunately none of them could hurt me. Ordinary crossbows don't have much power from the bottom up, not to mention the armor I'm wearing is an artifact.

The place Ashford pointed out to me just now is actually a giant monster. This thing seems not to be a player's magic pet but some kind of advanced weapon. Players in "Zero" all know that there is a big difference between magic pets and high-level military units under normal circumstances. Because magic pets belong to the player's personal power, they are generally subject to some restrictions, just like Ling and Xiaochun, the two of them They used to be God-level beings. If they retain their original strength and become my magic pet, then others won't have to play with them. I can sweep a guild with just one of them. But the advanced arms are different. First of all, the advanced arms belong to the guild force, so its combat effectiveness is relatively stronger than that of the magic pet. After all, its owner is a group of people instead of one person. In addition, compared with free magic pets, the consumption of high-level troops is astonishing, so the general system does not put too many restrictions on these things. Anyway, even if there are no restrictions, you can't afford many, and it is unlikely to destroy the balance of the game. .

The monster I'm currently eyeing is obviously the top model among the high-level arms, because this guy is really big. In fact, this guy is still very far away from the city wall, but I have to move out in advance because I don't know what will happen once this guy gets close to the city wall. The guy in front of him was at least over a hundred meters tall, and the city wall of Iron Cross City was almost like a fence in front of him. The monster's body looks like a giant dragon. In addition to its particularly strong muscles, the body is also covered with scales, which clearly bears some of the characteristics of a giant dragon. But he is different from the dragon because this guy walks upright. His legs and tail behind him are very thick. His upper body is similar to that of a human, but his muscles are frighteningly strong. His arms are also similar to humans, but his palms are more like dragon claws. His neck is not as long as a dragon's, but proportionally longer than a human's. The head on the neck is more like a giant dragon, but not exactly like it, because its horns grow forward, much like a large buffalo with its horns turned upside down.

"Lucky, Plague, Crystal, Mistress, come out and see what this is?"

Because this thing has a lot of dragon characteristics, I directly thought that this thing was related to the dragon family. As a result, the four dragons shook their heads after reading it. "I don't know. This is definitely not a branch of the dragon clan. He has no aura of the dragon clan at all. Even Yalong is closer to the dragon clan than him."

"Not a dragon?" I was slightly confused and then figured it out. "No matter what he is, get him on me now and put him down for me."

"clear."

In fact, they are lucky to be honest. Their body length is over a hundred meters, but compared to this thing, they are much smaller. On the one hand, it is because this thing is upright, and on the other hand, because the tail and neck account for nearly half of the dragon's body length, it is far smaller than this guy. Although this guy looks to be only over a hundred meters tall, his legs are bent and not straight at all. Besides, his body is also terrifyingly thick, so his strength is probably not too low.

The size of the monster is really noticeable to him. The giant creatures around him are generally below his waist. As for the humanoid creatures, they can only reach his ankles. The appearance of the four giant dragons immediately focused this guy's attention. Although this was still at the rear of the battle formation, the monster suddenly roared into the air regardless of the situation. The powerful shock wave instantly blinded Lucky and the others. After hitting the ground hard, it rolled and slid all the way to offset the impact. Of course, the soldiers along the way were also in bad luck.

I was lucky enough to escape death at the time. The monster immediately turned its attention to me when it saw the four dragons falling, but my speed was not much slower than the dragons. The monster fiercely swung its claws to grab me, but I got out of the way of his claws in a flash. Then I flapped my wings fiercely and rushed toward the monster's huge eyes. The monster was not slow to react. When he saw that he had missed the shot, he tilted his head and pointed his big mouth at me. Then I saw a rolling golden ball of light appearing in his open mouth. There are a large number of golden light bands in the monster's mouth that are rapidly gathering towards the light ball, and the light ball is also getting larger.

"Jingjing, protect me."

Jingjing suddenly appeared in front of me, and the holy shield suddenly unfolded into a giant shield as big as a basketball court. "Guard - Holy Shield Defense."

Ouch... The monster's big mouth suddenly sat back, and the light ball hit Jingjing's holy shield like a cannonball. With a bang, Jing Jingjing and I were blown away together. The golden shock wave instantly blew away all the creatures within a few hundred meters of our battle. Even those huge creatures couldn't block the main attack. Terrifying shock wave.

"Jingjing, are you okay?" We turned somersaults in the air and finally stabilized our figure. Jingjing's shield had automatically disappeared, and she herself fell into a coma. "Jingjing. Xiaochun, help take care of Jingjing. Ling, come out and help."

"It turns out to be the Ancestral Dragon Beast, no wonder it's so powerful." Ling Yi came out and said something that surprised me.

"Have you seen this thing?"

"I've read it in the book." Ling said while preparing magic: "This thing has a common ancestor with the giant dragon clan. They and the giant dragon are two branches of the same ancestor. However, unlike the giant dragon's comprehensive strengthening, these guys It’s just to strengthen the ***.”

"Damn, it's already so difficult to deal with just by strengthening the body. What if other aspects are strengthened and people can't survive? By the way, since you know this kind of creature, does it have any weaknesses?"

"Yes. This guy is slower and has a low IQ."

"We are on the defensive side. No matter how slow he is, it's useless! The city wall can't run! As for IQ... what does this guy say?"

Ling Mian's expression was strange and he replied: "With his IQ, I can't believe he can learn any language."

"Then how did he help British and French personnel join the war?"

"I'm afraid you have to ask the person who came to see him from the British and French Guilds."

"Halo, it seems that we can only attack by force. It's just a good time to test the combat effectiveness of the newly acquired demon pet." I said that a whirlwind had already swept through my body, and the next second Silver Moon's body appeared in the whirlwind. "Baby, come out and help."

"Master Baby is here..." The jelly-like baby screamed as soon as he jumped out of the Phoenix Dragon Space. It turned out that this guy didn't know that it was suspended outside. He thought he was on the ground, but he just Not knowing doesn't mean you can't fly. As the baby's body falls, the baby's body suddenly changes into the image of a bird. Of course, the texture is still jelly-like. The baby turned into a bird and flapped its wings and flew back to me. "Master, why didn't you tell the baby that we were in the air?"

"Don't you know what's happening outside?" I remember that Ling and the others could actually know what I encountered outside in Fenglong Space.

The baby looked at me with a matter-of-fact look and said, "But the baby was sleeping before! What would the owner's reaction be if he suddenly stepped on the ground just after getting up?"

"Oh, so it's still my fault?"

"Yes, it's the master's fault."

It is indeed the most difficult magic pet to cultivate loyalty, and it even bothers me about this kind of thing, but since you want to cultivate loyalty, you have to accommodate it! "Okay, okay, it's my fault, right?"

"Hehe, that's pretty much it. Then I won't care about it, baby. But why did the master suddenly call me out?"

"Be careful." I suddenly grabbed the baby and sank down to dodge a golden ball of light from the monster. This monster is not waiting for us to chat, he is constantly planning to attack us. But what's slightly better now than before is that they are lucky to have gotten up from the ground. Although the fall just now was not light, the dragon has always been known for its rough skin and thick flesh, so this small collision will not do anything to them.

"Huh...it's really dangerous!" The baby turned into a bird and wiped the non-existent sweat with one wing. "Hmph, this big ugly monster actually attacks the baby and the master. This is absolutely unforgivable. Master, let's teach him a lesson together, right?"

I finally figured it out. The difficulty in cultivating a baby's loyalty may be related to his fussy personality. As long as he is offended at any point, he will find a way to get revenge, so as long as his owner is a little tougher, loyalty will be rapid. decline. With his character, unless his master has studied psychology like me, it is impossible to cultivate his loyalty. No wonder he changes owners so often!

"Baby, this guy is really bad. How about you use auxiliary spells to weaken him, and then I'll deal with him?"

"Okay." The baby suddenly struggled and flew out of my hand, and then he yelled at the big monster: "I will turn you into a rag doll."

"Damn, how could this happen?" The baby's spell was used, but the monster was still a monster. Instead, the baby himself changed from a jelly bird to a ragdoll bird. It was obviously a magic backlash.

The baby also looked at himself in surprise, and then said: "Ah, Master, this guy is too powerful, I can't turn him into a rag doll."

The baby's transformation is not a skill that can be used indefinitely. At least creatures whose overall rating is too much higher than him cannot be turned into ragdolls by him, and this guy is still so big.

"Don't worry, baby, can you still use spells like this?"

Baobao immediately said: "The rag doll's body is just soft, so spell attacks will not be affected."

"So can you turn part of that badass monster into a ragdoll by yourself?"

"This... I haven't tried it, but I think it should be possible!"

Yeyue had been unable to completely petrify the enemy before. At that time, she only petrified part of the enemy's limbs to restrict the enemy's movement. Now I think the baby should have similar abilities.

After getting my prompt, the baby immediately started casting spells on the monster. This time the target was designated by me. I asked the baby to only turn a small piece of the monster's heel into a rag doll. This part is not too big. It should be done.

Sure enough, after the baby yelled "turn you into a rag doll" at the monster's feet, half of the monster's feet and an ankle turned into a velvet structure. You must know that the weight of a creature more than 100 meters tall is quite terrifying. The ankle responsible for bearing weight suddenly turns into soft velvet, how can it still bear the previous weight? This mentally retarded guy fell headfirst before he even realized what had happened. Accompanied by a loud bang like the earth was shattering, the entire Iron Cross City trembled. The huge size of the monster almost crushed the entire team beneath it, and countless people nearby were knocked down by the shock wave.

"Haha, I asked you to bully the baby. You must have fallen badly this time!" The baby proudly flew around to show off his achievements.

"Baby, don't be too happy. That guy is not dead yet. Look, he is getting up again. Let's turn his wrists into cloth, too?"

"But what should I do if I have no power?" The baby's words made me feel cold. Unexpectedly, the mana consumption of the baby's puppet transformation skill changes according to the size and strength of the enemy. The big guy just now was too big, and even though it only transformed a small area, it still drained the baby's mana.

"Then do you have any skills that don't consume mana?"

"It doesn't consume mana? It doesn't seem like it does!"

"Then you wait here first, and we will go down to avenge you."

"Okay, baby, watch over here. I'll continue to fight monsters when my mana is restored."

In fact, the baby's attack had a considerable effect. After falling down, the monster tried to get up again several times, but failed because its ankle could not bear the weight. Fortunately, they took the opportunity to open several huge wounds on the monster's body. . However, despite his low intelligence, the monster's fighting instinct told him that this was not possible, so he gave up his plan to stand up again and crawled directly towards the city wall.

During the previous battle between the monster and us, he never stopped moving. We didn't notice it at the time, but now that he can't get up, it seems abnormal to continue moving. In this situation, if we can no longer guess his intentions, we can just find a piece of tofu and hit him to death.

"Stop him quickly, he's going to hit the city wall!"

After working on it for a long time, this guy is used as a battering ram. No wonder I didn't see large-scale city-breaking equipment in the British and French coalition forces, because this guy is enough. With his size and strength, once he climbed under the city wall, he could lift the city gate and the buildings above into the city in less than a minute.

Ashford on the city wall also saw the doorway at this time. He didn't care about exposing my position and directly used the amplification magic circle to shout loudly: "Ziri, stop that guy."

Huh, with this sound, hundreds of thousands of eyes below suddenly turned to me. "Ashford, why are you calling my name, you idiot?" It's over now. I flew so high before that these people didn't recognize me, but now it seems that the interception plan may not be easy to carry out!
