765 Chapter 765 - Hanging By A Thread (1/2)
Under the walls of Yunduan City, after several probing atteuilds, the situation that they had very anxiously been looking forward to had finally happened: the NPC guards that were defending the city saw a sharp decline in their stats!
These city guards were originally dignified and i on a whole team of players by itself But all of a sudden, be it in its attack, defense, endurance or speed, the city guards found thenificantly weaker, so much to the extent that it was extre had happened The players alo up and try their hands on thee in the NPCs
”We did it!” The various large guild's channels were flooded with such es
”It's the final battle, everyone, attack!” the various guilds had bellowed out their final directive, and there was essentially no need for any sort of battle strategy or the ilk any an 80 decrease in their stats overall, these NPCs had essentially turned froons into wor one on one against a nory was even necessary? The various large guilds ere in the knowtheir ates, detere in a free-for-all, snatching whatever contribution scores that they could get their hands on
Of course, they were not the only ones who becauards had suddenly become weaker It was merely that the other players were unaware of what had caused the change, but having discovered their enemies were noeaker, the formation that they had adopted to keep up their attack by rotating in and out of the fight suddenly stopped This was because no one was dying any longer; as long as these players were not being foolish or careless noobs as they took on the city guards that were now 80 weaker; there was no way the players could die
More and ood opportunity for them to vie for contribution points They did not really care as to why this happened but were instead all calling their friends and allies to join in as well From the encampments all the way to just under the city walls, players swar tide of hu out to descend upon the city Such a scene had only occurred when the event first started, back when everyone still had no idea just how strong the city defenders were The players back then were very full of theuards, and the retaliation they suffered ift and brutal
But this time, the dreae at the eneance that it was the syste that could still be considered a threat were the trebuchets up on the wall, but the players were already used to dealing with their attacks so all of the! How did this happen?” After discovering that they barely needed to put in any effort to do battle at the an to wonder just what exactly caused this phenomenon
Those people ere not in the knoould forever be unable to guess everything that had happened, while those in the knoere not about to care to explain it to others either All they valued was to be able to coainst each other for the contribution scores
------------------------------------------
In a location quite a distance away from the battlefield by Yunduan City, Broken Water Arroas standing under a tree, watching the massacre unfold in front of his eyes, while he could feel a surge ofmoment
Broken Water Arrow suddenly heard the sound of footstepshi up toward hi his expression like Broken Water Arrow, oing with this route after all”
Broken Water Arrow sighed as well, but the tere sighing for different reasons regarding this outco because he had abandoned that vaunted scrupulousness he was so proud of, but Broken Water Arrow? He was not a game employee, so he actually did not have any opinions on thisMaster Han had forced his hand every step of the way In hisThousand Miles Drunk, but it was as if he had been thoroughly used by Young Master Han
”At least we've succeeded in stopping Thousand Miles Drunk,” Ye Xiaoas the sort that knew better to prod on topics best left unht of this point
Broken Water Arrow did not share his sentiaze out toward the faraway lake
All of sudden, he felt the ground beneath his feet shudder as if the land was experiencing tremors
No, to be precise, it was not tremors, butforce that was shaking the very ground he stood on, traveling throughout the land that reached the players' soles
”What's going on? Broken Water Arroas looking down at his feet in astonish the same except his expression did not merely show astonishment, but bewilderment as well
”That is i, co out Ye Xiaowu's shout In the distance, a very distinct water coluht up to the clouds Even Ye Xiaowu and Broken Water Arrow could hear the deafening sound of gushi+ng water clearly, despite how far they were froles, a second and a third silvery water column appeared, one after another as they rose to the sky
Ye Xiaowu shi+t his eyes… There was no need for him to look on further for him to know that there would be a fourth, fifth…
”How did this happen?” Ye Xiaoas nonplussed
”How DID this happen? Did you not say…” Broken Water Arroas confused as well, but he originally had plenty of areas that he was uncertain of, which hy he asked this question right now According to what Ye Xiaowu had told hile victor, but the current situation appeared as if both parties had coet… A to his understanding, there was simply no way for such a situation to occur, yet the truth was right there before his eyes As a result, the only possibility was that the circued from what he understood of it, and the City Wars event had been modified after he left his position Furthermore, Ye Xiaoas left in the dark as to this new rule that had been introduced
Thus it could be ia about a change that he would not co e' How quickly it becomes obsolete!” Ye Xiaowu chuckled bitterly in a self-deprecating tone
”What do we do now? Have Thousand Miles Drunk and the others won as well?” Broken Water Arrow did not know much, but he was clear as to how decisive this quest was Once the city assaulters were done, they would still be required to clear out the city guards and only after finishi+ng this task could they be considered as having successfully conquered the city Meanwhile, the city defenders would directly achieve victory, and the reason was rather ironic: The city defenders who had the absolute disadvantage, in terms of their completion rate, would actually be in the lead over the city assaulters because the fored to the city assaulters This was a very critical point
”Let's see if there would be a sixth and seventh water column,” Ye Xiaowu said
”Wouldn't that be worse?” Broken Water Arrow asked
”No That would actually be our only hope,” Ye Xiaowu said
”How so?”
”It's the sa, and one would be split five ways and the other, seven,” Ye Xiaowu explained ”If it goes seven ways, each of the water spouts would not be enough to utterly wipe out the encampments The outcome of the quest would be si the city defenders would still have some remnant task that they would have to do But if it were to flow five ways…”
Before Ye Xiaowu even finished, Broken Water Arrow already understood what he meant The ansas the same as what Ye Xiaowu had said before: Directly achieve victory Because the water would be evenly split five ways, each of the resulting water coluh to ruin an encampment
Would there be a sixth and seventh water column? Ye Xiaoas actually very nervous It just so happened that the position that he and Broken Water Arroere currently at did not allow theht
”Let's head over and take a look,” Ye Xiaowu beckoned Broken Water Arrow to follow as the two departed
Even though both encampments had been dismantled and subsequently abandoned, the system would still provide the relevant information of the two positions If it was athe quest, he or she would ly!
However, was Thousand Miles Drunk aquests? Ye Xiaowu's face was still downcast
This extre development had naturally drawn all the players' attention and when they heard that explosive roar froon like columns, all of theon-like columns were very intricately beautiful, and while everyone was shocked by the sight and singing praises of theht to wonder what their appearance meant They had already shoved their way to just under the city walls by now and were just watching from a distance Not many players were able to determine that these water columns had appeared over their encaht it to be a disaster
”How pretty! Just what is going on?” Asimilar to this when they first saw the colueysers have all been unleashed Just what is going on? Is the syste as they uttered this
There were of course still players arier of the change, such as Brave Surge
He had no idea what those water coluo check it out, he attempted to ask someone ould know about it: Broken Water Arrow
Broken Water Arrow responded, and the answer left Brave Surge feeling quite the chill in his heart, because Broken Water Arrow told him, ”Thousand Miles Drunk has coe asked when he finally came back to his senses ”Did we not already complete the quest on our side?”
”Yes, but it did not seem to impact Thousand Miles Drunk's completion of his quest When it caame company has made souys did not expect this? I'll screw your grandfather!!!” Brave Surge was infuriated ”So what are we going to deal with those five columns?” Broken Water Arrow asked His ates, so he had a very clear sense of the present situation
”Hmm? Just five, not seven?” Broken Water Arrow asked
”Gddh, ould ant seven!!” Brave Surge was still raging
”Having seven would have been a good thing… If you see five, that e wanted to kill Broken Water Arrow, but decided not to upon careful thinking Co envious of Colored Clouds successfully co their quest, what he could not stand eventhis City Wars event Brave Surge quickly sent this uild leaders, and the first one to reply was actually Oathless Sword, scoffing at hie? At this juncture, we're better off just trying our best to gain some more contribution scores!”
”Oathless Sword, you buffoon! Take a good look at the position of those colu It just so happened to be the five encampments that we still hold What do you think will happen if your encaed?”
”How could the encampment become flooded? It's not like we're in a basin Do you even have any co hiht, the encampments aren't in a basin No matter how ferocious those water colu Can it soak the people to death like that?
”No matter the case, it's best if we head on over and take a look first!” Brave Surge reasoned
”You're just trying to lure the tiger away frootten to this point, let us all just fight for the contribution scores in accordance with our ability You're not carrying yourself with confidence and ease, not in the least bit being classy, I say…”
Brave Surge did not bother to read on, directly dragging Oathless Sword right into his blacklist as he made the decision to cut all ties with the bstrd
Fortunately, there were not e guilds, Gu Xiaoshang, Black Index Finger as well as Foe-herder all attached iuild leaders he contacted also asked each other to find out more about this
