Chapter 58 The Difference Between Our Own People and Outsiders

"Enemy attack!... Enemy attack...!" My voice caused a response on the ship.

Sudden situations often reveal a person's true condition, and at this time the difference in quality can be seen. Although the players I picked up from Dragon Island were very powerful in combat, they did not have any organized training. When they heard the enemy attack, their first reaction was to turn into chaos. The operators of our guild on the ship ran to their respective posts with agility. This made me very happy. The outstanding performance of my members showed that my efforts were not in vain. High welfare creates high quality.

I jumped on the bridge to turn on the external broadcast, grabbed the microphone and commanded the chaotic dragon players. "Don't mess around. The crew of this ship is in place, and all the artillery is in place. All dragon players are in the air and ready to meet the enemy."

After hearing my order, the following players immediately began to take up their positions. After a short period of chaos, the situation gradually returned to normal. I once again used the radio to shout: "Dragon players should choose their resurrection point on our ship, otherwise death will be teleported back to the island." After hearing my reminder, everyone was in a hurry again.

Those small black dots in the distant sky have completely turned into giant dragons one by one, and the number is simply overwhelming. The dense group of giant dragons rushed up in a chaotic manner. The opponent was obviously unorganized and undisciplined. After all, the dragon clan did not have a real guild. Everyone was loosely knit together and did not really do anything as a group. , so now it is simply a mess.

I looked at the top of our heads, and it was quite chaotic. The dragons transformed by many players would collide with each other. It was really a mess! I had to give the order again: "Dragon players, be careful not to be too eager to fight. Just stay on top of the battleship. Don't rush back. Everyone, please protect the battleship and leave the enemy to ship-based artillery fire. You just need to intercept them and don't let the opponent get close to the battleship." That’s it. Do you understand everything above?”

"I know!..." There was a mess of responses from above.

I nodded and continued to order: "Prepare anti-aircraft fire, aim at the approaching ones, don't worry about ammunition. In the engine room, move forward at full speed, leave the coastline, we cannot be stranded here."

The battleship speeds up to evacuate, but the battleship cannot outrun the dragon's wings. We were caught up just after we left the illusion. I knew the dragon leading the way. It was the black dragon transformed by the Japanese girl. Lin Yue greeted him unceremoniously, and the two old enemies quickly twisted into a ball.

This time, almost all the dragon clan members who had not been taken away were dispatched. They were mentally unbalanced and could not leave, so they wanted to drag down these players who could leave. With this kind of revenge caused by jealousy, all the dragon players on Dragon Island mobilized.

Seeing the giant dragons approaching, the battleship below was crawling as slowly as a snail. It was really scary! The dragons on both sides of the sky have begun to fight, but it is obvious that the number here is too small and they are no match at all. Fortunately, there are resurrection points on the large battleships, and they can be taken away if they die.

Seeing that the distance was close, I gave an order, and the anti-aircraft guns on both sides of the battleship suddenly opened fire together. This ship was rented from the German Iron Crusaders. The anti-aircraft guns are the technology of the Iron Crusaders, so there are many anti-aircraft guns on their warships, which saved our lives.

This is the first time for dragon players to see a large battleship, let alone an anti-aircraft gun. As soon as they opened fire here, the ferocious firepower scared them silly. The attack power of naval guns is over 100,000. Even if the power of anti-aircraft guns is small, it will not be much lower. As soon as they fire, they will see the dragon players on the opposite side falling one by one. The high-speed projectiles broke the wings of the dragons, and the wingless dragon players could only roll and fall into the sea. When they wanted to swim onto the ship and continue the attack, they found that what was waiting for them was an attack from the battleship's main gun. The design of German battleships is rather strange, with the main guns at the back. This battleship has only one two-company turret on the front deck, but two three-company turrets on the rear deck. The player who fell into the water happened to be the target. These main guns were so powerful that even the dragon players were easily killed.

The attacking players were momentarily frightened by the powerful firepower of the battleship. At first, they thought that as long as they eliminated the defending dragon players, a small ship would do whatever they wanted to do. But now they discovered that the lethality of that ship was more powerful than the above dragons combined. It would take a long time for dragons to fight against dragons, but this thing wiped out a large area at once. If it weren't for the fact that the main gun's firing angle was limited and couldn't hit the top of their heads, they would have directly considered retreating.

However, although our firepower is terrifying, there are too many players on the opposite side, so it is not that easy to deal with. A giant dragon bypassed the fire and rushed from low altitude to the battleship, and was about to approach the battleship. The mm who was the captain of this ship suddenly ordered the front main gun to turn around and fire into the sea. Under normal circumstances, the forward guns of a battleship are not allowed to fire to the sides and rear, but now the situation is somewhat special. Seeing the fort rotating at a large angle, I quickly squatted down with my head in my hands and loudly reminded other people in the cabin: "Cover your ears, leave the window, and lie down quickly!"

As soon as everyone was ready, the front main gun opened fire. With a loud bang, two large water columns rose from the sea, and all the glass on our bridge collapsed. The player didn't have time to adjust the angle and dived into the water column. The force of the falling water naturally pushed him under the sea surface.

An NPC on the side of the ship kicked the launch handle of the depth charge launcher, and a depth charge flew out. The dragon player who was thrown into the water saw a black dot flying towards him as soon as he emerged from the water. The depth charge fell directly into the guy's arms, and everyone on the deck fell down skillfully. Before the dragon player could realize what was going on, there was a sudden boom, and a huge water column smashed his body into pieces and dozens of them. Tons of sea water were sent into the sky together. Being able to come back alive after such an impact is considered a god. Even if you are not killed by the shock wave, the sea water can still kill people. What's more, the bomb, which was about the size of a gasoline barrel, fell into his arms. It must have been a great feeling to hold the bomb.

The battle in the sky continued, and people fell from time to time. I really regret using the battleship. I wish I could have rented a submarine! Dragonites cannot dive in dragon form, and they are not much more powerful than ordinary players after transforming into human form. Thinking of submarines gave me an idea.

Ask the captain quickly. "Is this boat waterproof?"

"what do you mean?"

"That is to say, if the cabin doors are closed, will the entire ship be flooded?"

"I'm not sure. Theoretically, water won't get in. These doors have air-locked ventilation ducts, too. But I guess there will still be some places where water can get in, but it shouldn't be a problem for a while."

"Okay. Now I order you to close the cabin door immediately and block all places where water may enter. In addition, fill the bottom cabin with water and we will dive."

"Huh? What? Submerge? This is not a submarine!"

"Listen to me, that's right."

"Oh well!"

The fight was going on in the sky, but suddenly they found that the battleship began to sink, and both sides were shocked. It seemed that no one had touched the battleship, but everyone found it strange that it began to sink on its own. I shouted in the team channel: "Dragon players, please support me for a while longer. We will start to dive now. Wait until the ship is completely underwater before you come down and transform into human form and climb in through the torpedo tubes."

"I thought we were sunk!" The dragon players above who wanted to follow us relaxed and continued fighting.

Seeing the battleship completely launched into the water, the dragon players above who wanted to destroy it were all at a loss. They didn't know what happened to the battleship, and they didn't know what to do. The members on our battleship released their steel claws one after another, and I also released all my magic pets and other things that could go into the water. The propellers installed on the battleships are the ones sold by our guild. They are originally underwater propellers and work just as well when submerged in water. The battleship can still move forward after being launched into the water, but unfortunately the bridge glass was shattered by the front main gun, and now the entire bridge has become an aquarium. Fortunately, the players in our guild have standard armor, and they can all breathe in water and work just as well when submerged in water. However, the NPCs have to go to the oxygen cabin and cannot help.

My large familiars are outside the battleship to help maintain the balance of the battleship, control the steering and provide part of the power. The steel claws are waiting for the dragon players above to enter the water. I saw that the dive was almost deep enough, so I notified the people above to go into the water through the guild channel. The dragon players on our side turned around and entered the water. After entering the water, they had to return to their human form. The steel claws quickly sent them to the front of the battleship and stuffed them through the torpedo tubes. Ariana creates a crystal bubble in the water with air inside. There are fewer torpedo tubes and more people. The players in line squat in the bubble first, so they don't have to worry about drowning.

The dragon players above finally realized that there was a problem, and they began to get down, but as soon as they got off, they were hit hard. The humanoid dragons are no match for the steel claws. What's more important is that the steel claws only need to drag them underwater. They will drown in a few minutes without even having to fight them.

We have been advancing underwater for more than two hours. The dragon players above flew back to the island unwillingly. They were powerless against the warships under the water. Moreover, we had left their flight limit and they could no longer track us. We are.

After confirming that all the dragons were gone, I asked several magic pets to work together to bring the battleship out of the water, opened the hatch cover and began to drain water outwards, and the battleship slowly regained its buoyancy. Although it was a bit troublesome, we managed to escape! Starting a business is hard enough!

The dragon players we brought out ran to the deck to celebrate, and each of them was very interested in the anti-aircraft guns. Although they are trapped on Dragon Island, they all know more or less about the situation outside through the introduction of trumpets and friends. They know that their dragon race is much more powerful than the race of ordinary players, so they are willing to stay on the boring Dragon Island instead of changing to practice alt. But basically they had never seen a battleship before, let alone these naval guns. Can they not be touched when they find that the defense they were once so proud of is vulnerable to naval guns?

Several dragon players who joined our guild came over and asked me: "Are these naval guns too powerful?"

"Can't you call a cannon?"

"But no matter how high your defense is, if you blow it up with a door cannon and you're dead, wouldn't that disrupt the balance of the game?"

"Of course it won't destroy the balance. First of all, although this thing is powerful, it is not cheap. This one only costs 10,000 crystal coins, which is 100,000 yuan discount. Which of you has the money to buy this cannon? It can only be everyone in the guild. Pool your money to buy it.”

"Then the rich man must have won, right?"

"There are always a few rich people in this world, and most people can't afford this thing. Moreover, you should pay attention to the fact that this thing also has limitations. First of all, it only counts when it is installed on city walls and battleships. If you Take it apart and rely on it to level up, and you won't be able to level up even if you're exhausted. And the cost of shells and transportation are astronomical. Besides, although this thing is powerful, it has to be large-scale, and a single cannon can be easily destroyed. . A group of 5 players can easily take down a single artillery piece, let alone those NPC monsters. Who would spend money to buy a cannon and have them dismantled in the wild? That is something only idiots would do. Except for battleships and The city needs it, don’t even think about other places, it’s just for show. If you have the money, it’s better to go to the auction to buy some good equipment or a magic pet egg, or spend money to hire a few high-level people as sparring partners. , ensuring fast upgrades. In short, it is impossible to dominate with cannons. So don’t think about the balance of cannons.”

"I understand!" Everyone around nodded.

The next task is to return home. Because time is tight and there are so many dragon players around us, we don't plan to take a detour and go directly to Dorut. The strange thing is that all the British warships are missing. I didn't see any of them along the way. I can't figure out what they were doing. It's more convenient this way anyway, I don't care what they do.

When we approached the German coast, the dragon players on the boat were already excited. Finally they saw the shore, and their prison life was finally over. But we can’t go ashore yet. It’s still some distance away from Dorut. We are a big ship and we must dock in the port.

It was already early in the morning when we docked at the dock of Dorut Port. Of course, this was Beijing time, and it was still late at night in Germany. There were a few players at the port, but not many people. I hoped that this situation would save the trouble of being crowded. Of course Ashford would not be online so late. Almost all the leaders of the Iron Crusaders were not here. Fortunately, the city lord in charge of Dorut was online. After returning the ship to them and paying some compensation for the damage, the warship was already in disrepair.

After all the handovers were completed, I used Dorut's teleportation array to teleport everyone back to Tianyu City. I finally arrived at my own territory, and I felt much more relieved. He took these players into the newly built small conference hall and did not arrange for them to sit down. He said directly: "Players who have already joined our guild, please go to the side and wait. I have something to talk to you later." My own guild As soon as the person walked over and sat down, the door of the hall was suddenly pushed open.

The one who came in was the leopard girl from the orc guild I just recruited in Switzerland. As soon as she came in, she shouted: "President? I heard that you brought back the people from the Dragon Clan? Are they these people? Where is my brother?"

Oops, I completely forgot about this! Now we are in big trouble! While I was worrying, a player suddenly ran out from among the dragon players who had not joined our guild. "Sister! Why are you here?"

"You are here!" Leopard Girl hugged the dragon player affectionately. It seemed that this was the person she wanted. She really didn't expect that she would bring him out accidentally, but luckily it was like this, otherwise she would probably have to run away again.

Leopard Girl told her brother about the situation, and I listened. It turns out that this is her biological brother, but now he lives in the United States and is not with her. Now that we know that he is the one to be rescued, he will naturally join our guild, and now there is another dragon man.

Let them wait aside first, and I said to those who did not join: "Now that I have brought you out, I will be responsible for you. I need to explain some external matters clearly to you, lest you hang back to Long Island again. I can't in spite of."

They all became anxious when they heard what I said. "Why did you hang back to Dragon Island?"

I stretched out my hand to signal them to be quiet: "There are some limitations in this game, such as the issue of returning to the city after death. Except for a few special areas where people are resurrected after death, most people have to return to the city to resurrect after death. For a normal For ordinary players, the location of resurrection will be the nearest neutral or friendly city near the place of death. If you join a guild, you have one more choice. You can set up a nearby resurrection after death or directly specify your own guild. You can resurrect in any city. Do not set this. The system will ask you after each death. However, one thing to note is that if you are not from a certain country, you cannot be resurrected in a nearby city. For example When an American arrives in Canada, he will be resurrected in a random neutral or friendly city in the United States after his death, rather than in a city near his place of death in Canada. Although you are from different countries, you are a special race. The nationality setting is Dragon Island. That means you will return to Dragon Island after your death."

"Isn't that for nothing?" This time, not only the players who did not join our guild, but also the people who joined over there screamed.

I signaled them to be quiet again and continued: "So you need to join a guild immediately. As I just said, in addition to the principle of proximity after death, you can also choose a guild city. Which country you are in, you can be in this country after death. Choose the city of your own guild to resurrect within the range, but the premise is that your guild has a city in that country for you to choose from, otherwise it will be directly teleported back to a random city in your country. You see, I am. I am a Chinese guild, but I have a city in Germany. If my people die, they can choose this city to resurrect, and they will not be forced to be teleported back to their own country. The same is true for you. As long as you find a guild with a city to join, you can choose to be teleported back after death. The city of my guild should return to Dragon Island." Upon hearing this, the players who had joined our guild immediately sat back with smiles on their faces.

Among those who had not joined, a player suddenly said: "Don't you just want us to join your guild?"

I said in a slightly cold voice: "Wrong. I will not accept your membership application at all now. Even if any of you want to join now, I will not accept it. The Frost Rose Alliance is not a small guild, and we have no shortage." People who can join are the elite of the elite." I pointed to the players who had already joined over there: "They, they chose me, and I will let them know what a right decision this is. I hope you all understand. , we do not feel honored to have dragon players, on the contrary, dragon players should feel lucky to join us. The first rule of our guild is loyalty, not only to the guild, but to the people in the guild. To express loyalty to each other. You didn't choose us at the beginning, but now it seems too purposeful to join. I won't accept it, and you don't want to talk to me. I'm telling you this just to let you know that you have He may have returned to Dragon Island due to death, and I hope you can find a guild to join as soon as possible."

Someone asked: "Can't we build a resurrection point on the ship? Isn't that how you brought us back? Can't you just sell us the ship?"

"Unfortunately, only guilds can establish resurrection points on ships. Individual players can buy ships, but they cannot establish resurrection points on ships."

A relatively arrogant Frenchman said: "The worst thing we can do is establish a guild ourselves, and then join when we find a guild we are satisfied with."

I shook my head. "It's okay to set up a guild, but you need a guild in the city to build a resurrection point. The new city will be attacked by monsters. For those of you who build the city, at least two-thirds of the people who build the city will die in the siege."

"Will so many people die? Hasn't your guild experienced a siege?"

Ziyue on the side answered for me: "Of course we have experienced it."

"Then you also killed so many people?"

Ziyue shook her head and said: "Our entire army was wiped out. We fought hard for three days with the monsters and died together. The president himself fought with the last monster. But we are lucky. Although everyone died, the city was saved. We are Chinese ourselves. The city was in China at that time. After death, we were resurrected in our own country. But you are different. When you die, you return to Dragon Island. Even if the city you built is saved, it is useless. People who return to Dragon Island are equal to returning to Long Island. If you leave your own country, your cities outside Dragon Island will not appear in the selection list when you resurrect, and it will be useless even if you die."

I added: "So you must choose as soon as possible, and you must find a guild that has a city. Some guilds just have a garrison but no city. That doesn't work. That doesn't count. You must have a city, and at least If it’s at the village level or above, it won’t work if it’s too small.”

"Are there many guilds like this?" a player asked.

"Not too many. Most cities are system cities. There are guilds building settlements in them, but there are very few player cities. After all, not everyone can afford the cost of city construction, and the intensity of monster sieges definitely exceeds yours. The bigger the city, the harder it is to defend. Now most guilds do not have enough strength to protect the city."

"Then what should we do? Can you take us in?" Some players began to panic.

I shook my head: "I told you, I won't accept you. It would be okay if you joined voluntarily in Dragon Island, but not now. In fact, telling you these things is an extra gift from me. In fact, I just won't tell you. There is no loss to me. But we Chinese are a country of etiquette, and we do everything with a clear conscience, so I am telling you. In addition..." I waved, and Rose brought me a stack of paper. I took it and put it on the table next to me. "This is a table with the names of all player cities in Germany and the names of their guilds. It also gives a brief introduction to these guilds. It will be easier for you to find guilds according to this table. At this point, I think All benevolence and justice have been exhausted. If you have no problems, please leave my city! This place is still under construction and is temporarily closed to people outside the guild. You cannot stay in my city. Those who want to use the teleportation array can send you away for free. .”

"I have a question." One person took the list and asked: "Why are there only cities in Germany on this list? I am an American and I want to go to the United States to find it."

"Do you think you can cross the border on your own?"

Another player found that there were several pages of materials given to them, flipped through them a few times and asked, "What's behind this?"

"Those are some game rules and precautions. You are on Long Island and you don't understand many things. I have made a list for you to prevent you from making mistakes. This is my after-sales service. I charge you such a high ticket and give you a few family gifts. Tip, are you thoughtful enough?”

"You're cruel!" Those players walked out with their words in hand, and I asked Ziyue to send them to the teleportation array.

After those people had gone out, I gathered the remaining people together. "Okay, the outsiders are gone, and the rest are our own. First, I need to tell you how to use the guild function. This specific content can be found in the help. In addition, as a guild member, you enjoy all the benefits of the guild. Treatment. Please follow me and I will take you to the main city to receive it." He led these people out of the small conference hall and went directly to the transnational teleportation array. "The thing you are seeing now is a transnational teleportation array. This is a special equipment of our guild and is not available in other guilds. Ordinary teleportation arrays can only teleport within one country, but this one can teleport to other countries. But it is not interoperable with ordinary teleportation arrays, and currently we only have two points, this one and China."

A player asked: "Didn't you say that the border is difficult to cross?"

"It is indeed difficult to cross the border, but it is not absolutely impossible. Those who are sent away do not join us, so I have no need to serve them. Not to mention that this formation is temporarily blocked from the United States, even if it is, I will not lend it to them. This This thing can be regarded as a little secret of our guild. Although it is not very important, it is best not to tell others. Okay, come on up."

As soon as the screen flashed, we arrived at Essinger. As soon as the transmission ended, there was a sound of cold air coming from behind. I had known this would happen, and everyone who entered Essinger for the first time would be dumbfounded. Although the buildings on Dragon Island are also very large, those cliff-like buildings cannot really be regarded as buildings. The oppressive force and sense of expansion of majestic European-style buildings like Essinger are not comparable to those of rotten stones.

I waited for a while before turning around and saying, "Gentlemen, it's time to come to your senses."

Only then did they regain their composure, and they all talked about this majestic building complex. Suddenly a man screamed and pointed behind him. "Look, the port...!" The transnational teleportation array was built very close to the port for the convenience of transporting supplies. Just now, everyone had their backs to the port, but now they turned around and shocked everyone. At this time, it happened to be morning in Essinger in China, and the port was in the east. Standing here, you can see the orange-red sun just showing half of its head on the sea level in the distance, which is a beautiful sunrise spectacle. In the port, the tall Eternity, the recently repaired Shining, and some large and small warships were parked neatly in the port. The shadows formed by the tall ship and the radiance of the sunrise formed a beautiful picture, which made these bumpkins who had just left Long Island dumbfounded. Some of the more emotional ones seemed to be in tears.

I waited until the sun had completely left the sea level before I said: "Okay, everyone. Essinger welcomed you with her most beautiful sunrise. You will work hard for her safety in the future. But let me explain first, Essinger Ge is an evil zone, and the sky is covered by dark clouds that linger all year round. So except for sunrise and sunset, you can't see the sun."

"What kind of building is that?" A player discovered the Spirit Gathering Tower.

"That is the Juling Tower, the landmark building of this city. It is the geometric center of the city and also the political center. The city's control center is basically there."

"It's so high!" Everyone around sighed.

"What is that?" A player pointed to the top of the tower.

"Like a big fireball." Another player replied.

The third player said: "It looks like a big burning eye."

I replied: "That is the Eye of Hell, one of the city's city defense weapons. It will only be opened when the city enters a state of war. When it is opened, it can improve the attributes of the players in our guild, and it can also It can attack. The attack method is somewhat similar to a laser, but it is very powerful anyway, and it can attack multiple targets at the same time, and can even intercept artillery shells."

Next, I took them to the equipment warehouse to pick up equipment. These guys were like kindergarten kids in the back and kept asking what this was and what that was. I had to keep explaining.

"What's that tower?"

"That's the Tower of Babel. It's an ultra-long-range global attack system that can attack anywhere in the world. However, it takes up to half a month to gather energy and is idle most of the time. However, the attack power is very high. Once It can flatten a medium-sized city."

"Awesome! You can get such awesome stuff, I'm really impressed!" a player joked.

Another French player said: "I now feel that those who left are a big failure in life!"

"I think so!"

"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed together. Partly to laugh at those who didn't join, and partly to be happy for myself.

As he was talking, the players suddenly became alert, and I followed their gaze strangely. It turned out that a pair of patrols ran over. The leader was a demon knight, riding a black undead war horse, followed by a group of skeleton soldiers wearing black armor and holding spears. The knight rode in front, and 36 soldiers followed in four columns in neat formation, trotting past us. The leading knight immediately bowed very politely when he saw me, and then continued to move forward with the guard.

I said to the dragon players behind me: "Don't be nervous, this is Essinger's garrison. You can command them to do things, but you can't let them leave the city, but you can let them use the teleportation array to run between their cities. But if nothing happens, it’s best not to order them around randomly.”

"so hot!"

"These are the lowest-level soldiers. There are high-level dark troops in the military camp, which are much more powerful than these. But please pay attention. The black-armored ones just now are city guards. You can command them, but there is another kind in this city. Troops in silver armor are usually composed of angels and griffin knights. Those are the temple guards, so don't mess with them. They belong directly to the goddess and are not yours to take care of. But I have a better relationship with the goddess. , generally you can call them at any time if something happens. But that is my business, you must not give them random instructions, I will not be responsible if they are killed. In addition, all NPCs in this guild are As high-level elite NPCs with independent personalities, treat them as human beings and don't do anything that insults their personality. Otherwise, don't blame me for expelling you from the meeting. However, these elite NPCs are very smart and usually very enthusiastic and kind, but if If he discovers that you are trying to harm him, he may retaliate against you in advance on his own initiative."

"So powerful?"

"Don't be afraid, as long as you don't have bad ideas, they are all very kind. Elite NPCs have privileges in many things. You treat them as friends. If you get to know them well, they will give you some benefits from time to time. Personally, From experience, it is better to offend players than NPCs."
