Chapter 330 Discovery
Radamantis' speed was as fast as lightning. He reached the city gate in just a few ups and downs. The first group of people carrying the box had just arrived at the city gate.
Both sides knew that there was nothing to say about this kind of thing. As soon as Radamantis landed, the players on the other side immediately rushed forward, and then the two sides quickly approached and started to engage in a melee. What is said to be a melee is actually Rhadamantis alone blocking those people from approaching the city gate from east to west.
These Korean players knew their purpose very well. They just wanted to leave here with their things, and Radamantis also knew very well that his mission was to prevent them from leaving, so neither side chose to fight to the death. Radamantis has been constantly destroying the opponent's movement ability, with the purpose of hindering the opponent's actions. However, the group of people on the opposite side do not fight with Radamantis, and want to escape whenever they see any chance. . Unfortunately, the things they carried seemed to be very heavy, and it took two people to carry them. Even if one person dragged the box, he could only barely move it a few meters, which was completely meaningless.
Originally, Radamantis alone should not be able to intercept so many people. However, Radamantis is a protoss after all, and his combat power is quite different from that of players. Therefore, in a short period of time, the city gate was completely defeated by him. It's blocked, and no matter how hard the other party's personnel try, they can't get through.
In fact, Radamantis only lasted here for more than ten seconds. When the nearby Korean players discovered that there was someone intercepting here and came over to help, we, who started a step later, also arrived near the city gate.
Several Korean players saw that there was only one person in Radamantis, so they rushed forward to get through. In order to preserve his strength, Radamantis had to give up the opportunity to kill these guys to avoid the edge. However, this did not stop him. By chance, the remaining Korean players on the opposite side have already prepared a joint magic.
This combined magic is actually a simplified version of legion-level magic. It is also powerful, but not as exaggerated as legion-level magic. While the power is reduced, the relative restrictions on usage requirements are also much lower. Usually this kind of spell is commonly used by magic combat teams, and its power is not much stronger than the ultimate move released by a single player. But the advantage is that it can be launched continuously, and the preparation time is very short. After the release, the mages in the team will be less affected, and the basic combat effectiveness can be maintained. Of course, because it is a team spell, the possibility of being interrupted is many times higher than that of a single spell. After all, there are gains and losses. But anyway. This combined magic is still a very practical spell.
This group of Korean players used joint magic at this time. It can be said that the timing was just right. Although Rhadamantis is a god. But in this situation, he didn't want to get hurt, so he could only choose to evade temporarily or defend with all his strength. The tactic chosen by Radamantis this time was to dodge, so he took a step to the side, and in an instant he was at another point far away from where he was just now. Although this skill, which was almost like a space jump, allowed Radamantis to successfully avoid the attack range of the spell, it also allowed him to get out of the way to the city gate.
Seeing this rare opening, the group of Korean players on the opposite side naturally did not stand there and waited, but immediately seized the opportunity and rushed towards the door. However, just when they were about to rush to the door, a dense row of magic missiles suddenly flew down from above their heads, although these people had tried their best to dodge. But many people still fall for it.
After a series of explosions, some Korean players on the scene were killed directly, but most of them only suffered minor injuries. After all, we also attacked in a hurry, so we did not exert our maximum power. However, Kristina's combat effectiveness is very strong after all, and even a hasty attack can easily disrupt the opponent's position.
With just such a delay, Pandora and I successfully landed at the city gate, and Radamantis had already ran back and blocked the gate with us.
Seeing that everyone on our side has arrived. The players suddenly winked at each other, and then everyone suddenly turned around and ran in different directions.
Looking at the dispersed group of people, I suddenly felt that something was not going well. I rushed forward and kicked open one of the abandoned boxes, but a large amount of metal rolled out from it. piece. These are just very ordinary rough iron, that is, iron that has been simply removed from impurities. To be used as a material for weapons or armor, this thing needs to be refined at least once and undergo a series of forging treatments. To put it simply, this is a raw material that is slightly higher than iron ore. In terms of price... a box of this and one piece may be sold for more than a dozen gold coins.
Such cheap supplies obviously did not require so many people to protect them, and the reason why the other party finally gave up on these items and turned around and ran away was also obvious. These things are basically bait, and their purpose is to attract our attention. Then take the opportunity to cover what really needs to be transported out of here.
"Damn it, I've been fooled!" Seeing the thick iron on the ground, Kristina immediately realized that we had been fooled.
Radamantis angrily waved his hand and threw out a sword energy that destroyed a nearby hut. Then he suddenly turned around and jumped onto the city wall and began to observe the periphery of the city in an attempt to find the lost target.
I looked at Rhadamantis standing on top, and then jumped up too. But I didn’t go looking for enemies with Rhadamantis, but persuaded Rhadamantis to go.
"Stop looking. Since the other party has given up and continues to lie to us, it means that the things that need to be covered have been transported away, so those people will run away to avoid unnecessary sacrifices."
Radamantis said helplessly: "I didn't think so when I heard you say it before. Now that I have met them, I know that these people are really as slippery as loaches. If we continue like this, as long as we find some clues, the other party will come." Even if we catch up for a few weeks, we won’t be able to find anything really useful, right?”
"That's not necessarily true. After all, we are getting closer to the truth step by step, and the other side of this hidden intermediate unit cannot prepare too much, so as long as we keep chasing like this, sooner or later we will be able to discover their fox tail. It’s just that the time is exactly as you said, I’m afraid we can’t afford it!”
"The clues here are actually not broken now." Pandora suddenly jumped onto the city wall and stood beside us and said: "Although the other party has transferred some important supplies, the two cities are still there, and we can always find out Order something.”
"Then why don't we search separately?" Kristina said while floating next to us.
"It's good to separate, at least it's faster." Although Aphrodite is not a god responsible for fighting, she is unexpectedly impatient. And it's quite popular.
I thought about it for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's separate. Don't allocate areas. Just look for clues based on your own understanding. Everyone has different ideas. Even if they search the same area, different areas will be searched. People will also make different discoveries. As soon as anyone discovers something, he will send a signal to call everyone over. Of course, if you encounter trouble, you can also send a signal."
"Understood." After everyone finished speaking, they immediately dispersed. But except for Pandora who walked back and returned to the city, the rest of us all jumped out of the city wall and ran towards the opposite city.
These two cities are so close to each other. There must be some reason in the middle, so we all ran here together, because we have roughly determined that the city here must be the same as the Korean city we were just in.
The actual situation is actually similar to what we thought. We had just rushed to the middle of the two cities, and immediately a row of shining light groups flew over from the top of the opposite city wall.
"It's a magic crystal cannon, spread out!" Kristina shouted, and everyone on our side disappeared in a whoosh.
I had actually noticed the magic crystal cannon over there before I heard Kristina's cry, so the moment the magic crystal cannon over there was activated, I summoned Night Shadow and jumped on it. Then when the artillery fire started over there, we jumped directly to the city wall in a dream.
The method used by Rhadamantis was different from mine. He once again used the method he used to avoid the opponent's attack last time. He jumped forward, and then his whole body seemed to teleport. In a blink of an eye, he reached the top of the city wall, in the middle. I haven’t seen exactly how it happened.
Aphrodite is the most well-behaved person on our side. After hearing the reminder, she immediately ran out diagonally. The result was a hail of arrows. Fortunately, Aphrodite was well-equipped and her combat prowess was quite impressive. She deflected the arrows around her with just a few hits and continued to charge towards the city wall.
Although Kristina reminded us to get out of the way, she was the only one who didn't move. However, although she did not move, her whole body suddenly turned into a large colorful light group, and then she saw that one of the magic crystal cannon shells directly hit the light group, and then the light group suddenly shone. It tends to a calm state again. After being hit three or four times in a row, this wave of attacks passed. At this time, the light group suddenly changed back to the appearance of Kristina before, but at this time, the colorful wings on her back But it burned with breathtaking colorful flames as if it were on fire. It was a sign of extreme excess energy.
In fact, when Kristina entered the elemental elf mode, she had become an elemental creature, that is, an energy creature, and the shells fired by the magic crystal cannon were actually just a ball of unstable energy. The biggest feature of energy creatures is that they can absorb energy. therefore. When Kristina was hit by the cannonball of the magic crystal cannon, she was not actually hurt, but received magic replenishment. As for her current appearance, this can be described in one word, that is - overstuffed.
In fact, Kristina's ability sounds awesome, but in fact it is not really invincible. Although it is indeed awesome that she can eat magic crystal cannonballs, if the caliber of the magic crystal cannon is large enough, or Multiple cannons fire at the same time within a certain period of time. Anyway, as long as the energy output exceeds the upper limit of the energy that Kristina can convert per unit time, this attack will start to take effect on Kristina. Therefore, Kristina's invincibility is not really invincible, it just doesn't break the defense when the energy is not strong enough.
Kristina and Aphrodite left it alone. On our side, Rhadamantis and I rushed up to the city wall and glanced at each other before starting to rush out in one direction along the city wall. Our plan is simple, to destroy the city's defense system.
In fact, normally we don't need to destroy the city's defense system at all, because under normal circumstances once the enemy enters the city, the defense system will be destroyed. After all, no one dares to fire into the city. However, the other party's two consecutive cleanups of the city made us realize that the other party really went out to bombard their own city. After all, they can abandon a city, so what's the big deal if they bombard it a few times before abandoning it? What about?
Although the people on our side are either experts or gods and are not afraid of the other party's artillery fire, the problem is that we are looking for clues. Just because we ourselves are not afraid of artillery fire does not mean that our targets are not afraid. If the city is bombed into rubble, won't our work be in vain again?
Because we understood this, Rhadamantis and I rushed out along the city wall without hesitation. When the players on the opposite side discovered that we did not enter the city but came directly towards the fort, they immediately rushed us. He put aside the shells and other things around him, drew his weapon, and started to fight us in close combat.
I already felt strange when I saw the two cities so close to each other. Now standing on the city wall, I really understand the reason why the two cities are so close. The players on the opposite side who took out their weapons also completely confirmed me. idea.
In fact, we received a system prompt the moment we stepped onto the city wall. The content of the prompt is to inform us that we are no longer in South Korea, but in Russia. We ran from South Korea to Russia in just a few hundred meters. The simplest explanation for this is that the city beneath our feet is actually a Russian city. Because cities in each country will form a certain range of territory outside the city, and if the distance between the two cities is not enough to reach the basic territorial scope of the city, then the dividing line between the two cities' spheres of influence will be two cities. The midpoint of the connecting line along the outer edge of the city wall, that is, the distance outside the city is half the distance between the two cities. This situation does not favor you just because your city level is high, but depends entirely on the location of the city's walls.
The above is how two cities divide their spheres of influence. If the two cities belong to different countries, then the dividing line between their spheres of influence is actually the national border.
The two cities we are in now obviously belong to South Korea and Russia respectively, and the location where we were shelled just now happened to be on the South Korean side of the dividing line. Later, we had to avoid the shells. So everyone used their abilities. Rhadamantis and I both jumped directly to the city wall here, so as soon as we stepped on it, we immediately realized that we were in Russia. As for the Russian players rushing over in front of us, that is naturally the best evidence that this is a Russian city.
I can actually think of some reasons why Koreans and Russians set up their cities this way. Now these Korean guilds are obviously connected with the Russian guilds to form some kind of alliance. And because of the formation of this kind of alliance, more communication is needed, and in case of a battle, they can It is very necessary to mobilize troops to support as soon as possible and connect the teleportation arrays of the two countries.
but. System limitations are system limitations. No matter how close two cities are, as long as they are within the boundaries of different countries, there will be no teleportation array interconnection between them. The only way to break this restriction is to build a transnational teleportation array. However, there is a problem here, that is, not everyone can build a transnational teleportation array.
At first, many people thought that the transnational teleportation array was a new type of teleportation array. It was something that our guild researched, but later they gradually discovered the secret. In fact, the transnational teleportation array is not an upgraded version of the ordinary teleportation array at all. It is something completely different from the ordinary teleportation array, and it is a very powerful magic equipment. In addition to being naturally limited by materials and funds, building this thing also requires systematic supervision. Our guild now has branch cities in many countries, and some countries actually have more than one city, but why don't we build transnational teleportation arrays in all these cities? Although the cost of a transnational teleportation array is much higher than that of an ordinary teleportation array. However, considering the difference in economic benefits generated by the transportation of materials through a transnational teleportation array and the direct connection of multiple teleportation arrays, it is actually the most cost-effective way to equip each large city with a transnational teleportation array. However, we cannot do this because the number of transnational teleportation arrays built is limited.
The system's restriction on our guild is that the number of transnational teleportation arrays we can build is equal to the number of countries in which our guild has cities plus one. In other words, assuming that our guild has cities in six different countries, then we can The number of transnational teleportation arrays built is 6+1=7, which means a total of 7 transnational teleportation arrays. This quantity limit still exists until now, and transnational teleportation arrays, like general teleportation arrays, require one-to-one correspondence before they can be used, so we cannot equip a country with two transnational teleportation arrays unless something unexpected happens. And if we did that. That means that a certain country can no longer build transnational teleportation arrays.
At present, the transnational teleportation arrays owned by our guild basically only have one in each country, and the only two exceptions are that there is a duplicate transnational teleportation array on the misty island between China and Japan, and there is another There is one duplicate in the City of Commandments.
The transnational teleportation array on Misty Island is actually located within Japanese territorial waters, so it is actually the same as the transnational teleportation array in Fulcrum City. In other words, our guild has two transnational teleportation arrays in Japan. The transnational teleportation array in the City of Commandments also belongs to our Chinese region like Essinger's transnational teleportation array, which means that there are also two transnational teleportation arrays within the territory of China. but. These two special cases were not obtained in exchange for giving up the establishment of a teleportation array in a certain country, but were earned by Tianyu City.
Because Tianyu City on the European side is actually located at the junction of France, Germany, and Switzerland. Therefore, although the transnational teleportation array we built in Tianyu City only has one teleportation array, it earned us three quotas. Tianyu City itself has a transnational teleportation array that consumes one quota, and the remaining two are just precepts. The teleportation array in the city and the one in Kirishima.
These two exceptional transnational teleportation arrays are actually because these two places are special areas. I don’t want other players to transfer from here, so I have to build independent transnational teleportation arrays so that they can be basically independent from other cities. . After all, the transnational teleportation array is different from the general teleportation array. It cannot be forcibly broken through, and the security is much higher.
Our guild owns a transnational teleportation array, which is a reward our guild receives in battles. Therefore, we can build it, but it seems that the guilds in South Korea and Russia do not have such rewards, which means that they cannot build transnational teleportation arrays. However, the union between them determines that they need a method of rapid communication. Therefore, when there was really no other way, they came up with this workaround. Build two cities right next to each other somewhere between the two countries and use those two cities as a springboard. Suppose a player wants to travel from a city in Russia to a city in South Korea. What he has to do is use any teleportation array or teleportation scroll in Russia to directly reach the Russian city here. Because they are all cities within Russian territory, they are only considered ordinary teleportations. After the Russian player arrives in this city, all he has to do is cross the 500-meter border on foot into South Korea, and then use the teleportation array in the Korean city here to teleport to the city he needs to go to.
This transfer method is obviously not as efficient as our transnational transmission array, but it is worse than the previous method. This method is much faster after all. In addition to the time delay caused by the two teleportations, all that needs to be added is the time to run out of the two cities plus the five-hundred-meter-long interval in the middle. This is much easier than walking all the way to the border and crossing.
Now that we know the functions of these two cities, we can conclude that clues should be found here. Because this is a hub city, if the Korean player's super bomb is really transported from Russia, then it can only be transported from here. So, the likelihood that we'll find a clue here is very high. certainly. What we need to do before that is to take down all these forts.
Cleaning up the turret is not a troublesome matter for us. After all, the people guarding the turret are ordinary players, and some of them are technical soldiers, so they have no combat effectiveness at all. In this case, we were just chopping melons and vegetables on the city wall, and there was no obstruction at all. No one could stop us even for a second. Moreover, with the addition of Aphrodite and Kristina, our scanning process is getting faster and faster.
However, this good time ended when we cleared the last fort on the city wall and prepared to go to the city to collect clues, because the other party had recovered from the initial panic, and a large number of advanced players and NPCs came to us. Started to attack us like a stalker.
Because we agreed to split up, we separated after clearing the fort. I don't know what's going on with Rhadamantis and Aphrodite, but it's a mess here anyway. Those people who rushed over were not fighting me at all. Some of them didn't even have weapons, they just rushed toward me with shields.
"Oh shit, what are you doing?" Looking at the group of shield players rushing over, I really didn't know what these people were going to do. If you want to use a shield hand to resist my attack, why can't you see a swordsman or a spearman to cooperate with the attack? There's no way the opponent can just use archers and mages to deal with me, right?
Although I was very confused in my heart, I was not slow at all. Seeing a shield wielder rushing up, I jumped up and kicked the top of his shield. The top of the shield immediately fell backwards and hit his head with a bang. The guy was so dizzy that he staggered back two steps and fell to the ground. I used the power of this kick to fly backwards and overcame the shield of a heavy shieldman behind me. He stepped heavily on the top of his shield.
Originally, this kind of heavy shield that was as tall as one person was very weighty, even though all of these heavy shield players had the figure of a weightlifting champion. It is also very strenuous to lift such a thing and move it. Now I suddenly stepped on the top of the shield, which was equivalent to adding another person's weight to the shield. The other party couldn't bear the weight of such a blow. The shield in his hand was directly inserted into the ground with a clang, but it did not fall down. However, at this time, it doesn't really mean much whether the shield falls down or not. Standing on the top of the shield, I stepped directly over his shield and stepped on his shoulders. Then I pinched his head with my feet and twisted my body violently. With a click, the guy's neck turned to an abnormal position. angle, and then when I jumped away from this guy. His body fell straight down.
I easily eliminated the two shield men. I was about to attack the people nearby at this height, but unexpectedly, a thick crossbow arrow flew over from next to me, forcing me to lower my head and jump off a guy's head. On to the ground. Although I am not afraid of ordinary crossbow arrows, the one that flew over just now was clearly the kind of siege crossbow-like crossbow arrow fired by the player I had tracked before.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that I have something to do now, I would definitely research the origin of this skill. This is the second time I've seen this skill, and it's not the only person using it. This shows that this skill is not unique, and there may be some problems with the answers I got before. Of course, the other party has agreed to join our guild and become a mercenary, so I am not in a hurry to ask about this matter.
I was forced to the ground and before I could jump up again, all the heavy shield bearers around me suddenly surrounded me without any scruples. When I saw the shield hand rushing towards me, I simply slapped Eternity away. According to the guy who rushes the fastest, he will do a downward slash. The Eternal Sword flashed past like a piece of tofu, and the inch-thick shield and the shield-hand behind it turned into two pieces and fell to both sides. It turns out that heavy shields known for their defense are no better than ordinary shields in front of my eternity.
After slashing a heavy shield hand with a sword, I immediately rushed in his direction, trying to use this gap to escape, but the result was quite depressing. I just rushed to where the guy was standing, and two more heavy shielders jumped out from the opposite side and blocked my way. Just when I wanted to turn around and look for an opportunity, I realized that the heavy shielders behind me had already surrounded me. It came up and blocked all my escape routes.
These guys actually formed a shield wall around me, but this wall was not external but internal. A closed space composed of four shield walls framed me in the middle. Except for the hole above his head, there was no road at all. However, I know that once I jump up, I will definitely be attacked again by the siege bed crossbow-like weapon, and there will definitely be a mage behind me, so flying up is not a good idea. If I had known that I shouldn't have put Ye Ying away when I came down, at least Ye Ying's mobility could ensure that I could jump over these people's heads.
Even though I was surrounded in the center of the shield formation, I didn’t feel that this was a fatal outcome. Looking at the shield array that was gradually pressing up, I shook the Eternal Sword in my hand. With a clatter, the Eternal Sword suddenly spread out and turned into a whip sword form. I suddenly swung the eternity in the form of a whip sword in my hand and swung it around. The whip sword instantly slashed through a circle of shields around me. With a burst of metal collision, these shields all turned into broken metal pieces on the ground, and I myself He quickly rushed forward and hurriedly crashed into the crowd before the shield bearer behind him had time to take up his position.
Originally, I thought that this would help me get rid of the opponent's rogue style, but who knew these people could be so shameless. Just when I rushed into the crowd and killed several people in succession and was about to rush out, one of them suddenly threw down his shield and hugged my waist.
Feel the tremendous pressure coming from behind. I raised my arms directly, and with a crash, two sharp counter-nins popped out from behind my elbows. Then I pushed my elbows back suddenly, and both counter-nins were thrust into the ribs of the guy behind me, and then As soon as I moved my arm, two big holes were opened on both sides of the guy's waist and ribs.
The player who was hit so hard certainly lost the strength to continue holding me. It's just that this guy is just the beginning. Although it only took me a second to take down this guy, the problem was that there were people everywhere around me now. And they were all their people, so when I successfully killed this guy, two more people immediately jumped on me. One of these two bastards hugged my left hand and the other hugged my left leg. Then, without waiting for me to struggle, seven or eight more people rushed up and hung on me. I felt like I was heavy all of a sudden. There were so many people hanging all over the body. And they were still desperately locking my joints in the hope of stopping my movement.
Although my strength is greater than the combined strength of these people, my weight is not as heavy as that of so many people plus one weight, so the deviation of my center of gravity caused me to fall backwards and fall to the ground, and before I could struggle, Suddenly, someone shouted in Russian: "Get out of the way, I'm coming."
This person obviously didn't shout to me, so I knew that this person must have some powerful skills. Otherwise, so many people would just hug me. There is no reason for others to give way to this guy as soon as he comes.
Sure enough, this person rushed to my side and immediately pointed a long sword in his hand at my neck and thrust it into my neck. The few people surrounding me moved their bodies slightly to make way for my neck to be more convenient. Guy starts. But because the power of these people was not enough to completely restrain me, we were still rolling on the ground. He glanced for a long time but couldn't find an opportunity to strike, so he shouted anxiously: "You should hold him down!"
"If you have the ability, do it yourself. This guy is as strong as a white bear. He can't hold it down at all!" A person hugging me shouted from below.
Another person also followed: "Don't worry about accidental injuries. Just try to be more careful. If it's not a vital point and it won't be fatal at once, just take the knife. If you get hurt, we won't blame you."
After hearing this, the man knew that he could not hesitate now. He immediately raised his sword again and was about to thrust it down, but at the moment when his sword was about to stab down, he suddenly heard a whine, followed by a muffled thud, and then there was a scream all around. With the sound, a large number of enemies who were standing around me just now disappeared instantly.
"Holy shit, what is that?" The person holding me below couldn't see what was happening above because of the angle, so he could only ask loudly.
A guy above shouted loudly: "It's Zi Ri's magic pet. Damn it, this is a giant monster. Hey, Hopkins, do it. If you wait too late, you won't have a chance."
Although the guy whose name was called immediately rushed up and tried to attack me with his obviously special sword, it was obviously too late at this time. The moment he raised the sword, the tank's huge hook and sickle swept horizontally in front of me. Not only did it cut him in half, it also swept away the group of people hanging in front of me. go out.
Originally, the power of these people couldn't control me, but now that half of them were missing, I immediately rolled over and got up. As soon as I came together, I summoned Xiaofeng, and then we collided with her, but we didn't touch each other, but passed through each other, but it was okay for me to pass through like this. Those people are miserable. Xiaofeng is a life form composed of fire elements. Those people instantly turned into a pair of charcoal. When I shook my body, those people immediately turned into black ash and floated all over the ground.
"A bunch of guys like leeches!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation...)
