Chapter 61: Taking the Head Start

Both we and Buddhism completed the deployment in a very short period of time, but we did not launch an attack first. The current situation is that the longer the delay is, the better it is for us, so we will not take the initiative to launch an attack.

Buddha probably knew that we would definitely wait for them to move first, so there was nothing to hesitate about. As soon as the formation was arranged, a Buddha holding a Zen staff walked out from the Buddhist side. The guy stood in front of the formation and pointed in the direction of Contract City: "Does anyone dare to fight with me?"

The people on our side were stunned when they saw that Buddha actually ran out to challenge someone, and collectively cursed: "Idiot."

The Buddhist side saw that no one from our side came out to challenge for a long time and immediately burst into loud cheers. However, this cheer did not stimulate the players in our guild, but made our members collectively despise the Buddhist battle. level. What era is this? Before the battle, he actually asked someone to come out for a duel. It was just because his head was filled with water.

I watched the idiots from the Buddhist clan opposite cheering and waving to a player from my guild next to me, and the player immediately ran over. "President? What's the matter?"

I pointed to the Buddha who was running back and forth in front of the formation in the distance to boost morale and said: "Go and inform the floating platform to use the magic crystal cannon to cover that guy."

"No problem." After hearing this, the player turned around and ran to convey the order. After a while, we heard a chaotic roar, and a large piece of purple suddenly flew out from the floating turret above our heads. The light ball rushed towards the guy who was boosting morale at a speed visible to the naked eye. At this time, the guy had noticed our reaction and turned around immediately. He originally planned to run when he saw so many cannonballs flying towards him, but unfortunately he later discovered that the flight path of the cannonballs was not just coming towards him at all, but covered a large area near him. Before he could think of a solution, he heard a violent explosion, and the flames completely covered him in an instant.

The power of the magic crystal cannon is countless times greater than that of the gunpowder cannon, and the biggest difference from the gunpowder weapon is that the shells fired by the magic crystal cannon are energy bodies. Although It is relatively easy to be affected by substances in the air and lose accuracy or be detonated in advance, but as long as it hits the magic crystal cannon, it can do something that the gunpowder cannon cannot do, and that is magic penetration. Due to the energy properties of the magic crystal shell, when it explodes, it will produce a temporary magic disorder area in the surrounding area. In this area, ordinary people cannot use spells at all. Even if the spell shield has been formed, first The explosion of the first shell will also melt a big hole in the protective shield, and the second shell will penetrate into the protective shield and explode inside. Therefore, once the magic crystal cannon forms a numerical advantage and covers a certain area with powerful firepower, there is basically no need to consider defense. Because there is no way to stop it.

It took several minutes for the smoke and dust on the field to be completely blown away after that guy took a round of shelling. However, the Buddhists who were cheering before were now all standing there with their mouths open. The vanguard officer who had been encouraging them in front of them just now was destroyed in an instant. This blow was too big. The morale they had finally raised was destroyed in an instant. It was even better not to encourage morale in the first place and just directly It might be better to hit him as soon as he pulls him up.

Just when everyone in Buddhism was standing there in a daze, I was standing on the city wall and said to the people around me: "Do you know the disadvantages of Buddhism participating in the war in the name of a guild? Needless to say, you definitely don't know. In fact, this disadvantage It's very simple, that is the principle of rationalization. No matter how strong the NPC hired by a guild is, it must be able to be eliminated by the player. No matter what level of strength it had before, once it participates in the war in the name of a guild, the system must ensure that the opponent The guild must at least be able to kill this target, otherwise the game is not about confrontation but about who has more money. Buddhists thought that participating in the war in the name of a guild would bypass the system restrictions, but they did not know that their behavior was actually They got themselves in. Now the divine power on them is only effective when they attack us. When we attack them, their defense power will not be multiplied by the auxiliary growth value of the divine power, so you can rest assured, as long as you are willing to fight hard, the Protoss You can still kill them. Although the price you pay will be high, you have to know that they are the gods. If you kill one of them, the experience points will be enough to make up for your losses."

"Boss, how much experience does a Protoss have?" a member asked.

I recalled a little and said: "I can't remember the specific number. Anyway, when I killed a protoss when I was investigating in India, I immediately gained several levels of experience. And I was already over 1,200 levels at the time. A protoss It’s enough for me to level up so much. If you kill him, you will definitely get more than me. The experience reward will be even more terrifying if the level gap is huge."

"Hahaha, so those outside the city are all walking experience points!" a member shouted.

"Yes, we just want to steal all those experiences."

"Steal all the experience." The members behind me all shouted after me. Although my method of boosting morale is a little more utilitarian, I have to admit that the effect is very good.

While the people on our side cheered, the Buddhist side seemed to realize that the situation was unfavorable and did not encourage morale. A Buddhist leader came out and simply waved forward, and the army following him immediately started moving. .

"The enemy has begun to charge." Rose reminded.

I quickly turned back and looked outside the city wall. The Buddhists were still some distance away from the city wall. It would take at least ten minutes to run over. This time was enough for the twelve floating turrets above us to blast back and forth a dozen times. There should not be many Buddhists left by the time we get to the city wall.

"Fire." A player on the command platform of a floating turret waved the command flag in his hand vigorously. Hearing a bang, the first row of cannons shook at the same time, and a row of shells flew out neatly. In an instant, They flew over the city wall towards the charging Buddhist army in the distance, but before the first batch of cannonballs landed, the second row of cannons behind the gun emplacement had already started firing. The firing time of the second row of magic crystal cannons is about one second slower than that of the first row of cannons, and the third row of magic crystal cannons will also fire again more than one second after the second row of cannons fire. . This tactic of firing intermittently is mainly because the energy shells of the magic crystal cannon are prone to interference during flight. Therefore, too many cannons cannot fire at the same time in a fixed area, otherwise it will easily cause the shells to fly in mid-air. Stick together and blend into each other. Although the power of the fused cannonball is increased, its direction is inaccurate, and this fusion is very dangerous. Most of the results of the fusion are to explode directly instead of continuing to fly forward.

Compared with the sporadic firing of the magic crystal cannon, the firing of the gunpowder cannon is much more random. In order to resist the Buddhist attack, there are not many civilian buildings in the entire Contract City. Almost all civilian buildings were built to meet the minimum requirements for forming a city. Almost all the free area was built into artillery positions. Countless artillery pieces were densely packed from the bottom of the city wall to the opposite side like a horse position. Under the city wall, the firepower formed by such a large number of artillery is absolutely unprecedented. There is no Buddhist army charging on the ground outside the entire contract city. At a glance, there is a dense explosion, and the fireball that just exploded has not disappeared. The new fire ball was propped up from the inside, and there was no gap at all. Unless the Buddhists were all on the level of Tathagata Guanyin, there was no way they could survive such a bombardment.

Da Guofan stood on the city wall next to me and said, "Looks like we won't be needed anymore."

"Why?"

"With such intensive artillery fire, I doubt if anyone in Buddhism can rush to the bottom of the city wall. Do you think we still need to join the war?"

"Don't think of Buddhism too simply." Rose said: "The purpose of deploying these cannons is to weaken Buddhism. Don't expect that artillery alone can win a war, especially if the opponent is a protoss."

Before Rose could even finish her words, something happened over there. A huge golden light curtain suddenly rose in the densely exploded Buddhist camp. This light curtain is different from the protective shields I have seen before, because most of the magic barriers I have seen before are translucent or fully transparent, but the barrier in front of me is composed of countless golden Sanskrit characters. . Those golden Sanskrit characters were arranged one after another into strip-like structures, and then these strip-like structures were arranged one after another to form an arc-shaped barrier, completely blocking our attack. Even the magic interference ability of the magic crystal cannonball can only make the rotating Sanskrit strips stop slightly, and cannot penetrate that thing at all.

"It seems that we still underestimated the fighting ability of Buddhism!" I looked at the golden barrier and turned to ask Fairy Zizhu. "Do you know what that is?"

Although we can't participate in the war today, Fairy Zizhu can still provide us with some other help, such as intelligence. After all, she had spent some time in Buddhism and knew a lot about Buddhism.

Fairy Zizhu just glanced at the golden barrier and said: "That is the ring of cause and effect."

"Is it strong?"

"You can't say it's strong!" Fairy Zizhu explained: "The Ring of Karma does not rely on absolute power to defend. Its defense ability is more like a rule."

"You mean that thing is a regular weapon?" I asked in surprise.

Fairy Zizhu nodded. "Not exactly, but almost. But don't worry, that thing is still incomparable to the Ring of Commandments. At least that thing can't change the rules at will, and it can't run continuously. Don't stop, keep bombarding, at most Hold on for a few minutes and that thing should collapse.”

"That's good."

Rose suddenly asked: "How does that thing start? Is it powered by some kind of magic weapon or does it rely on people?"

"Both are needed. To activate the Ring of Karma, you need a special magical weapon, and there must be more than six high-level Buddhas to activate that thing."

Hearing Zizhu Fairy's explanation, Rose showed a wicked smile, and I immediately understood what she was thinking.
