Chapter 19 What Looks Like a Natural Disaster Is Actually a Man-Made Disaster

Chapter 19 Looks like a real number of natural disasters**

Jin Coin slashed his sword at Tian Zhao's clone, who was lying on the ground covered in wounds. When the sword was about to fall, a sword suddenly blocked Jin Coin's sword. The back of the knife suddenly pushed the gold coin away, and the two people next to him helped Tianzhao's clone up and blocked it behind him. Although the national weapon has an absolute suppressive effect on regional guards, for players, it is just a piece of equipment with relatively good attributes and is not that powerful. Facing these seven rb players, gold coins will naturally suffer, but we are not the only ones here with gold coins. We just couldn't beat Tianzhao's clone, but we weren't afraid of RB players. We didn't dare to stand up when we saw Tianzhao's clone being beaten, so of course we rushed forward immediately.

Seeing our appearance, Tianzhao's clone immediately ran out again, and Jin Coin rushed over. He was so frightened that he hid behind Matsumoto Masaru again. I saw that another opportunity was about to come up, but Tianzhao's clone came out to block it again. As a result, the two sides changed positions again. In the end, it turned into a situation where both sides were restraining each other, and no one dared to move randomly.

It's certain that Matsumoto Masa's people can't defeat my magic pet and Hongyue. Even if the gold coins have the combat power, there will be no problem as long as they are not beaten by a group of people. But the gold coins' mission is to intercept Tianzhao's clones, not to entangle them, so the gold coins Always try to avoid contact with them. But these enemies didn't think so. They didn't want Tianzhao's clone to come into contact with the gold coins, so they would naturally block the gold coins' progress, but the gold coins were always chasing Tianzhao's clones, so they had no choice but to chase the gold coins. We hope to see gold coins attack Tianzhao's clone, so naturally we can only follow and chase Matsumoto Masa and his gang. Tianzhao's clone saw that the people led by Matsumoto Masa were disturbed by us and could not help him deal with the gold coins, so he came to attack us in an attempt to kill us first. No one knew what to do in the melee on the battlefield.

While we were fighting in the dark, there was a sudden loud noise on the mountain. The black unicorn and Yamata no Orochi were back. The first one to arrive was Baqi. This guy flew over. To be precise, he was thrown over. The black unicorn rolled and fell after him, and there was actually a guy behind him. Before we could react, we saw a big bird and a red skeleton dragon falling over together. Following them were two hundred-meter-long dragons and a huge eagle-billed turtle. It was quite spectacular to see so many divine beasts rolling and crawling over them. The question was what was so powerful that it hit all the high-level divine beasts from both sides.

It goes without saying what kind of existence the black unicorn is. This guy is completely a super beast, and ordinary creatures are no match for him. Yamata no Orochi is the regional guard of RB. In theory, it is a monster on the same level as the Azure Dragon and White Tiger. There shouldn't be anything that can easily defeat him. Hongyan is a heroic dragon, also known as an epic dragon. It is said to be a master among masters. The Japanese ghost bird is also a regional guard like Baqi. It’s not simple! The last two dragons are the rewards our guild received from Heaven. Although their levels are not as perverted as Hong Yan and Black Qilin, they are still genuine members of the Shenlong family. The two together are not too different from Hong Yan and Black Qilin, right? ? I don't know what the last turtle is, but looking at the mountain-like body shape, it shouldn't be an ordinary thing, but now he has also been thrown over. With so many monsters flying over together, it can be seen that the thing behind is very powerful, and it is something so powerful that it surpasses the main god level.

I was about to ask the black unicorn, but there was another explosion on the mountainside behind me. A red liquid sprayed into the sky, and then the red liquid split into countless black dots and splashed in all directions. One of them suddenly exploded after landing next to us, and the part inside was still red. Colorful solution, wherever these things splash, there will be a sea of ​​fire. The power is no less than that of meteors and fire showers.

"Volcano erupts!" I finally came to my senses.

After all, Hong Yan is a high-level thug in the guild, so he is quite considerate at this time. He was the first to run over: "Put away all your magic pets quickly and come up. I will take you to run."

"Oh!" I quickly took all the magic pets back to the Phoenix Dragon Space. By the way, they also drove Scott and the others back to the space gate. The lava over there had already overflowed the top of the mountain and was rushing downwards. If I don’t run away, I’ll prepare a roast pig.

Jin Coin and Zhen Hong ran back nimbly and jumped onto Hong Yan's back, but they could only stand on it. Hong Yan had no place to sit due to his bones. After I packed up my magic pet, I turned over and jumped up. Hong Yan kicked off the ground and jumped up. The lava rushed under our feet in one step and almost covered us.

On the other side, Masamoto Matsumoto and the others were in a much worse situation. Those monsters ran faster than the other, completely forgetting that there were seven players and Tian Zhao's clone nearby, but Tian Zhao himself could fly. By the way, Matsumoto Masaga was also brought along, but the six players were covered in lava. As soon as a person touched the lava, he burned up inexplicably, and then the whole person melted into a piece of white steam and lava, completely indistinguishable from each other.

Below the hillside are the armies on both sides. Millions of people are fighting in this small area. If the lava is allowed to rush down like this, it will not be as simple as killing one or two. I summoned Ye Ying again and jumped out from Hong Yan's back. "You go back to Essinger first, and I'll go rescue people."

Half of the millions of people below are ours. In addition to the players supported by various guilds, most of these armies are NPC armies. If such a dense army is completely covered by lava, will I still be bankrupt? How much does it cost to buy so many NPCs?

Ye Ying flew over quickly, and I activated the loudspeaker magic prop I carried with me and shouted: "Everyone turn around. Rush towards the opposite hillside. Don't look back, hurry."

The players below still haven’t figured out what’s going on. But as soon as I saw the lava behind me, I knew what to do. What else can you do at this time besides running?

"Cavalry! Where are the air cavalry? Come back to save people!" I shouted, not knowing what to do anymore, so I summoned all the creatures that could enclave to come out and rob people.

The lava is wilting and seems to be moving very slowly, but in fact it is not advancing slowly. What's worse is that the army is still fighting, and the people on both sides are restraining each other and no one can run fast. Although the lava is approaching from behind, if you were running for your life with your mortal enemy, wouldn't you want to take the opportunity to say hello? The people on both sides just changed to fighting and running, and their speed became even slower. The dense crowd was moving towards the opposite hillside almost at a snail's speed, while the lava behind them was pouring down with thunderous force, completely ravaging everything in front of them as if they were grass and grass.

In the distance, a bunch of black flying units flew over from the direction of Essinger. The speed of these guys was really quite timely. The ones who came over from the Air Force were mainly air cavalry. But what is more sensible is that this time all the Pegasus' backs are empty. They are here to rob people, not to fight. Bringing empty cavalry will only affect the effect. Pegasus' IQ is much higher than that of ordinary war horses. At least they can't mistake the enemy for one of their own. Some Japanese people also wanted to take advantage of the chaos and climb on the back of our Pegasus. As a result, they were kicked back from a fixed point by the Pegasus and sent flying for more than ten meters. They fell down and could not even turn over.

After the Pegasus landed and picked up a large number of players, a huge black shadow in the sky obscured the entire battlefield. The huge body of Giant Butterfly City gives hope to the Chinese players below, and at the same time brings a lot of panic to the enemy. The powerful carrying capacity of Giant Butterfly City has helped us a lot. Although we can't land on the ground now, Pegasus doesn't have to transport troops to very far places. Just transport it a little higher to the giant butterfly city and then go down and pick up people again. Dragonfly Castle is also a relatively good transportation tool at this time. She is not big. She can land on the ground and directly load a large number of people, then immediately send them to a safe area and then come back to continue loading.

Compared with the strong transportation capabilities of our side, RB's side is obviously not good enough. A large number of players panicked and ignored the road. There were few stampedes and many people died under their own feet. Masamoto Matsumoto was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot behind him. When he saw that we had sent a large number of air force rescue personnel, he had no troops to send. The results of the air battle have come out, and RB has no air superiority. Moreover, there is nothing that can even fly. The air battle just now consumed all the remaining air force. It is useless to just rely on the few scattered ones around the player.

The lava rushed down the mountain at a speed of twenty kilometers per hour, and the players below became more and more panicked. The troops of the two armies ran separately. Everyone moved towards their own side and retreated towards the mountain. So now the Chinese and Japanese armies have officially disengaged. Seeing that the situation is so critical, I can only take the risk and try more extreme methods.

"Attention all mage units in Essinger, water and ice magicians who will use heavy rain or hail spells will immediately look for air transport units nearby to assemble behind our formation."

As soon as my order was issued, everyone understood what I meant. A large number of mages who knew the freezing technique began to gather, and soon a team of more than 3,000 people was formed. I didn’t say anything. Seeing that the group of people was almost gathered, he immediately led them closer to the magma. When I got near the magma, I started to command: "Attention, don't attack the freezing mage yet. The temperature of the magma is too high now. If it freezes quickly, a big explosion will occur and cause splash damage. Let the water mage come first and use water magic on a large area." Cool down initially, and then you use freezing spells to freeze the front of the magma. If the lava from behind continues to freeze as it comes up, hold on to the front."

"clear."

The mages moved quite quickly. After a flurry of preparations, large dark clouds appeared, followed by heavy rain. It is said that there are three cobblers and one Zhuge Liang, which really makes sense. The mages in our guild actually thought of using short-term rainfall, and as a result, a sloping diversion was formed in front of us. Masamoto Matsumoto, who was already very busy, suddenly found that all the lava was pouring towards the Japanese army. When he looked up, he realized that it was us, but he looked anxious but had no choice. Tianzhao's clone vowed to come over and kill us all and throw us into the lava. But he saw Jin Coin waving the Tianzun Sword to demonstrate to him from a distance. He immediately withered.

The heavy rain spell lowered the temperature of the lava, causing the fluidity of the magma to decrease, and the flow rate slowed down significantly. The freezing mage followed a burst of polar freezing air and magic like frost storm and smashed it. The front line of the magma immediately solidified into rock, but was quickly washed away, but our side will quickly freeze again. The mages were fighting with the magma, and the players below took the time to run away.

After all, natural volcanic eruptions are not small volcanoes created by wizards with magic. Their power and duration are different. The power and temperature of natural volcanoes are much more powerful than magic volcanoes, otherwise they would not have scared away Black Kirin and the others.

Our mage's job is only to block the advancing speed of the lava. After the vanguard's lava freezes and solidifies, the lava behind will be blocked for a while, but as the subsequent lava arrives, the lava plane will increase and it will overflow the lava in front and continue to move forward. The only thing we can do is to delay as much time as possible to give our troops a chance to move safely.

Although our efforts have achieved some results, in the end we are still unable to confront powerful natural disasters head-on. The intensity of the lava is too high, and the mages simply cannot freeze so much lava. After the galloping magma rushed down the hillside and entered the plain, although the speed dropped, it really began to cause casualties. Those who ran slowly were quickly overtaken by the lava, and the high temperature could easily ignite the human body and eventually melt it. Those who can run are actually lucky, and the most miserable ones are the wounded on the ground. These injured people should have been intensively treated after the war. As a combat game, the number of combatants in the game must be overstaffed. The ratio of medical staff and combatants cannot be the same as in reality, so unless the team is leveling up in the game, Generally, there are no so-called field medical units in regular wars. Most of the wounded would take some 'medicine' to take care of themselves first. After the war, the victorious side would uniformly treat their own wounded and casually give the other's wounded a stab wound. This was the style in the game. But now the problem is obvious. No matter it is the Japanese or us, no one has time to take care of the wounded. The wounded on the ground have no one to take care of them. They can only wait to die while watching the magma flow over. Players are relatively okay, after all, they have the scroll to return to the city. The key problem is that the PC can only run on its own, and the injured can't even think about running.

In the face of a large number of injured people, we support and rescue as many people as possible. If we really can't control them, there is nothing we can do. There is nothing we can do at the moment. Lava quickly filled the valley and plains, and about 130,000 NPCs in our guild died from the lava. More than 80,000 of them were wounded. Compared with our side, the losses on RB's side are even more terrifying. 720,000 NPCs and more than 30,000 players were missing in the battle. Some of them were killed in the initial battle, and the rest were submerged in lava. Because there is no way to keep statistics, we don’t know exactly who died in battle and who were buried alive.

The situation on both sides was a mess. A large number of people on our side were blocked on the opposite hillside and the chaos was extremely chaotic. On the other side, the crowd was completely in chaos. No matter how hard Matsumoto Masako tried, he could not maintain the situation. Even the giant cannons in the city stopped firing inexplicably. The battlefield actually stopped for a while, and people on both sides were busy doing their own things.

As for RB, Masamoto Matsumoto led a group of commanders around to find the leaders of various guilds participating in the war. The following players and NPCs came from all over RB. In terms of scheduling, Matsumoto Masaga could not immediately execute whatever he said. It must be conveyed by the person in charge of each guild. Players may be better off, as NPCs will not be dumped by anyone except the leaders of their own guild. Now if we can organize an attack, the RB people will definitely be defeated at the first touch, and no one can stop us. The problem is that things are not going well here either.

A large number of leaders have been temporarily deployed on the hillside to command and dispatch. Fortunately, they are all NPC legions of the guild, so there is no problem with command. However, there are many people, and the organizational structures of various military services are completely chaotic, and there are still many units with incomplete personnel. In some units, only a few people were left after being beaten. Some units were fully staffed, and we had to gather and reorganize the disabled units. Anyway, we won't be able to launch another attack in a short time. Although we know that the chaos on RB's side is a good opportunity to attack, we can't do anything about it. Besides, the valley has now turned into a lava river, and you have to run up the hillside to get across. The slope of this hillside is not very steep, but it is definitely not a good place for the army to advance. Below is a surging lava river, and falling into it is no joke.

I ran back to Essinger angrily. The handsome black-haired boy was standing on the second take-off deck of Essinger drinking tea. I went over and picked him up. "You did a good job."

Black Qilin slapped my hand away: "What are you doing?"

"What am I doing? I want to ask you what you are doing?" I pointed forward. "What's going on with the lava? Don't tell me it's a natural phenomenon."

"Oh, you said that. It was an accident."

"Accident?"

Hongyan's big head suddenly stretched out. "City Lord, Mo really didn't mean it. It was an accident."

Seeing Hong Yan also helping Black Qilin to speak, I suppressed my anger for the time being, found a toolbox and sat down. "Tell me what happened?"

Rose and the others just happened to run over in a hurry and heard Black Qilin talking about what happened. "At that time, I was fighting with the Yamato no Orochi, and a big turtle suddenly appeared from under the ground and knocked me down. I was still biting the big snake at the time, so we fell together and hit the ghost bird. After that, your two-day dragon and this red dragon also arrived, and they joined in after seeing us. They didn't see me buried under them at that time. So this red dragon used the dragon secret language to attack us at that time position. When I saw the attack, I naturally ran out, and as a result, the big snake and the ghost bird that were pressing me were also taken away. The attack missed but hit the ground, and the result was that it was too powerful and made a big crater. "

Hong Yan continued: "We originally saw those monsters piled together and thought it was the best time. Unexpectedly, the black unicorn was below. He suddenly ran away, causing me and the two dragons to attack and hit the ground. After that, A monster turtle also ran back, and Mo treated it as an enemy and hit it. The giant turtle got angry and fought back, but Mo was too fast. The attack landed in the pit again, further deepening the pit. At this time, Baqi After recovering, he fought back after seeing Mo in the sky. Mo naturally threw out magic resistance. The two people's attacks combined and caused a big explosion, which deepened the pit by more than ten meters in one go. As a result, the ground suddenly exploded. Lava surged out from inside like a fountain, and we were so frightened that we ran away."

After listening to their explanation, Rose walked up to me and said, "It seems that their multiple attacks cracked the volcano's veins, causing the underground lava to leak. I don't know how long it will take to erupt!"

Zhen Hong said: "RB has a lot of volcanoes. It's not too strange to hit the lava veins. The key problem is how to get through. Now the only passage valley has been filled in by lava. Wait until it cools down naturally to the point where people can walk. It will take at least four days. If the temperature is lowered artificially, it will have to wait until tomorrow at least. But the cannon of the RB people does not wait for anyone!"

As soon as Jin Coin heard about the cannon, he immediately asked: "Speaking of cannon, have you noticed that it seems that the cannon fire has not appeared for a long time?"

"That's right!" Everyone noticed when Jin Coin said this. "When was the last time there was a shelling? Don't the Japanese cannons fire every thirty minutes? Isn't it going to be more than this time?"

Woma looked at his watch and said, "It's been an hour and five minutes since the last shelling."

"That means the RBs missed two shells that were supposed to fall, right?"

Jin Coin asked with a little excitement: "Is there something wrong with the cannon?"

"That's not certain!" Woma shook his head: "The mechanical structures in the game rarely malfunction. Of course, they are not completely invulnerable, and malfunctions are possible."

In fact, Masamoto Matsumoto's gun itself did malfunction, and two shells were delayed and failed to fire. The cause of the malfunction was not the gun itself. It's because of the problem with the cannon's ejection. No one expected that among the running bombs brought by the Russians, there was actually a shell with an inaccurate probability of a round shape, which meant that the cross-section of this shell looked round but was actually oval. Do you know what the consequences will be if you plug an oval-shaped cannonball into the barrel of the prototype gun?

When firing the projectile whose structure was not in compliance with the standard, the structural deformation caused the propulsion gas to eject from the muzzle in advance, and the projectile velocity did not reach the predetermined force. If it were a normal cannon, this would most likely mean that the shells would deviate from the target, or flip over in the air and land at a relatively close location and explode. But this cannon is a city-level cannon. The shells are about the same size as a transport aircraft. It requires a very high ejection speed. . This time the speed was not reached. As a result, the artillery shell could not enter the spiral orbit in the barrel, and even its own stability could not be guaranteed. The warhead had multiple frictions and collisions with the barrel wall, which offset the limited propulsion. As a result, the shell began to somersault as soon as it came out of the muzzle, and ultimately it only flew less than a thousand meters before landing. It was scary. Those rb players all lay down and thought that the cannonball was going to explode at their feet, but who knew that the thing stopped on the city wall safely.

The city wall in front of Hiroshima no longer has a city gate. The gate tower that was originally relatively majestic is now a pile of broken bricks and rubble lying on the ground, and a large piece of the city wall has also collapsed. On top of the rubble is a huge brass cannonball. The huge figure makes people think of the horrific scene that may occur when it explodes. However, now a large group of RB players have to bite the bullet and approach this brass cannonball. Because this is the inferior cannonball that was fired just now.

This guy not only broke the rifling of the cannon, but also fell on the city wall and destroyed the gate tower and a section of the city wall. What's even worse is that this guy is a dud. Such a big dumb bomb parked in front of the city is simply a huge time bomb. No one knows when the shell that has been fired with the safety turned on may suddenly explode.

Although the rifling of the cannon was damaged, because the cannon used orbital rifling and could be replaced at will, the cannon was quickly repaired. The only problem was that the huge dumb bomb stopped so close, and everyone was afraid What if the cannon was fired and the guy exploded? This is why even though the cannon was repaired, it still didn't dare to continue attacking.

The young man from Russia and more than a hundred technicians were standing under the warhead of the artillery shell. They were building supports to stabilize the structure of the artillery shell to ensure that it would not explode during the dismantling process. A large group of RB players were helping. The disassembly of such a large cannonball could not be completed by just a few people like a small cannonball.

As the saying goes, if you have too many debts, you don’t have to worry; if you have too many lice, you don’t need to itch. This shell is so powerful that Matsumoto Masaru and the others did not feel scared when they stood under the shell. Everyone knows that if this thing explodes, half of the city of Hiroshima will be lost, so it doesn't matter whether they stand far away or close. What a difference.

After the support frame was completed, a group of technicians went up and inserted many small handles on the projectile warheads, and then dozens of people turned the dozens of handles together. Perhaps because of the severe deformation, the threaded fuse of the warhead could not rotate, and the anxious Russian technicians jumped up and down in a hurry. As a last resort, they used a small hammer to gently tap the edge of the bolt. On the one hand, they were afraid that excessive force would cause an explosion, and on the other hand, they were afraid that the force would be too weak and useless.

After working on it in fear for a long time, not to mention, the warhead actually became loose. Dozens of people went up and worked hard, and the large metal lid with a diameter of two meters really started to rotate. As the thing rotated, it gradually retreated outward from the warhead, and was soon completely pulled out. After the cover was removed, Matsumoto Masahiro and other RB players saw the structure inside the shell for the first time. The huge warhead shell was almost half a meter thick, and there were a large number of linkage mechanisms and the like inside. It was not what they imagined. It's all simply dynamite.

The Russian technicians finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the linkage devices, but just when they were about to go in and dismantle them, an accident happened.
