Chapter 277 - The Defense Event Begins (1/2)

Time passed quickly. It was already the day of the event.

When Lorne had issued the city defense mission, the players had been cursing crazily, criticizing him for asking the players for help but still wanting to collect 1 gold coin.

But now, it seemed that such criticism was pointless.

This was because when the city defense mission started, the number of players who participated had already reached 271,000.

In the entire Iron Skull City, more than twenty large guilds had basically chosen to participate in the event. Moreover, basically all of them were long-range professional players. Clearly, they had all seen the key point of this siege. It was that the city wall was tall enough to ensure the safety of everyone and resist the monsters.

When the scene arrived at the Cold Desolate Dragon City, one could see that the city walls on both sides were filled with people. They were all carrying bows and arrows, holding magic staffs, and waiting for the impending battle.

On a circular platform in the Cold Desolate Dragon City, countless players gathered. Their eyes looked at the distant city wall, wanting to know the situation at the front line of the battlefield.

These people were all solo players who had not chosen to participate in the battle. Because they were not qualified to participate, they could not climb up the city wall, so they could only squeeze on this circular landing platform and stare ahead.

Of course, most players still stayed in the city or in the wilderness. They used the live-stream channel of ”Divine Realm” to watch the battle at the front line.

”Dear viewers, after two days of tense waiting, the siege war has finally begun!”

”The difficulty of this siege is SSSSS-rank, the highest-level mission. Cold Desolate Dragon City, who does not have any defense weapons, cannot rely on the defense of the city to defeat this group of ferocious monsters. According to what I know, Tyrant's 'Above the Clouds' Guild only has him as a player, but even so, Tyrant still issued a special announcement of 1 gold coin signing up two days ago. Does he really have the confidence to win?”

”Perhaps. Although I don't know if Tyrant really has the confidence to defeat his opponent alone, I know that the players of Iron Skull City are united. In order to protect this hard-earned player city, they resolutely joined the battle.”

”Even I, Little Orange, can feel my blood boiling. Now, I don't want to determine the result. As a player, I only want to fight alongside everyone. No matter what the final result is, I will be proud of today's battle!”

”The battle is about to begin. Please follow Little Orange and witness the first hot-blooded battle between the players since the opening of the Divine Realm!”

Beautiful female streamer Little Orange mixed into the battle team and began to live stream the entire scene.

It could be seen that the number of people in the live-stream was very terrifying. Almost every minute, it was increasing by hundreds of thousands. Before the battle live-stream began, there were already 100 million viewers paying attention in real time.

It was normal for such a situation to occur. After all, Cold Desolate Dragon City was the first player city and was a virtual city judged by the various financial institutions to have a potential of 10 billion. Now, be it the players or the audience in reality, they were all focused on this battle.

”Dear viewers, we have a live streamer who has already seen the army of monsters in the forest ahead. We will now receive the scene over there in the live-stream.”

Little Orange quickly switched the live stream to a shared view.

This was a scene transmitted from the Doomsday Forest in the northwest. In the scene, countless monsters were attacking in the direction of the Cold Desolate Dragon City.

Among these monsters were rotting spiders, demonized cannibals, gravediggers, gluttonous ghosts, demonized apes, violent demon wolves, rotting corpses…

These monsters mixed together and covered the sky.

Especially when the view from above appeared, the audience could not help but gulp.

”Tyrant is really unlucky.”

”There are probably more than a million monsters, and their quality is very high!”
