The Cloud Cloud City players' charge was very sudden, and their human drag tactic was far beyond the expectations of the Forest Shadow City players. In addition to the scattered players, the Forest Shadow City players also had a major flaw: Water Depth wasn't there.
At this time, it hadn't been long since Water Depth had returned to the city, so he hadn't had time to rush back. Although the in-game players could continue to command without being present, in the face of some unexpected situations, remote command obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. It would take a lot of time for both sides to ask each other about the situation.
In this time, the 30-meter area of Forest Shadow City's traps had been swept clean by the Tuobu team at the front! In fact, there weren't as many traps as the Cloud Cloud City players thought, and it couldn't be compared to the 30-meter area that Water Depth had slipped through before. It seemed that the other side's trap encirclement was also loose, and dense. Water Depth openly showed his face in front of everyone, so he chose a relatively dense area, and the result was his own bitter fruit.
The Forest Shadow City players couldn't be said to not be working hard. They had already carried out a great deal of interception, but unfortunately, the results were very little. In the face of an army of a thousand people, small sneak attacks were of no help, and the Crisscrossing Sea's arrow formation was really terrifying. A little careless player would be shot down in an instant, and even some Stealthed Thieves would be shot out in the process. In the battle between the Mages, the Cloud Cloud City players also had the upper hand, and perhaps even they themselves didn't know this. Because they weren't aiming at any target, they were just blindly carpet-bombing. Only the Forest Shadow City Mages behind the trees knew the pain of this.
They shrank behind the trees, afraid of the Crisscrossing Sea's arrow formation, not daring to move too much. This was almost no different from falling into a hunting trap. Then they could only watch the spells fall from the sky and rise from the ground, and they could only grit their teeth and bear it. It was possible to survive this spell, but in the face of the storm of arrows, there was only one word to describe death.
Even so, one of the ten people in the Cloud Cloud City Tuobu team was still killed. It was just that this was a character that controlled a mop, and as soon as he died, someone else immediately followed up. However, one of the ten mops didn't seem to be tied securely, and it slipped in the process of being pushed. But this didn't affect the overall situation. The troops in front had completely broken through the trap area.
After that, the Mages' attack didn't stop, and they continued to throw spells everywhere, regardless of whether they hit or not, covering the players behind them to smoothly pass through this passage that had been opened with great difficulty. At the same time, Reflected Years gave an order, and some of the Thieves who had long since been prepared spread out after entering Stealth. This was arranged in advance by Reflected Years in order to prevent the opponent from secretly laying traps everywhere after breaking out of the encirclement. Now that so many Thieves were secretly observing from all sides, if the opponent made any moves, it would be impossible for them to escape the eyes of so many people.
Even though the trap was broken, the battle in the forest still made the players of Cloud Cloud City tremble with fear. Under such circumstances, no one was in a hurry to retaliate against their opponents. After everyone broke out of the encirclement, the team immediately continued forward. Everyone still had a panicked and hurried expression on their faces.
The mood of the Shady Forest City players was even worse than them. Their first encirclement and suppression plan had obviously failed. Deepwater could only sigh deeply after learning of this news. Since they had used such a cheap move like human flesh mopping, it was not too much to say that they were still alive. Wasn't it said that the most despicable people were invincible?
"What should we do next?" Facing the covetous Arrow Formation of the Cloud Cloud City players, as well as the mages who would throw spells to the left and right from time to time as they walked, the Forest Shade City players would never dare to go up and fight head-on.
"Are they going in the right direction?" Water Depth asked.
"Yes." Someone answered. After all, Unsworn Sword and the others had already studied the route before entering the forest. At this time, they were just continuing to move in that general direction. Even if there was a slight deviation, as mentioned before, it was just that they couldn't reach the city gate. They could still find the main city.
"I'm afraid it won't be so easy to encircle them like just now. Everyone disperse immediately. Take small groups as units and harass them on a small scale. Figure out their route of advance, try to delay their advance, and buy time to set up another ambush on their path. "Water Depth said.
"Understood!" The Shady Forest City players moved again. The small groups that Water Depth spoke of were only a unit of ten people. At this time, they were all assembled and moving forward from different directions.
"Is there a chance for a sneak attack?" Water Depth asked.
"It's a little difficult …" There were still quite a lot of hesitation. "Their mages will throw a spell from time to time to test it."
"It's just a spell test. That won't kill anyone. It'll be fine as long as everyone doesn't make a sound. They're just throwing it blindly. What I'm afraid of is that the other party's formation at this time isn't as concentrated as we saw. There will definitely be Thieves scattered around. If they see our sneak attack, then it'll be troublesome. We must find these guys first and eliminate them. Did you bring everything? "Water Depth said.
"Of course!"
The thing that Water Depth was talking about was the White Lime imported from Baishi City. This thing was formed by the special geographical features of Baishi City. It could be found all over the mountains and plains, and it didn't cost a single copper coin. It was used by clever players to deal with the Stealth of Thieves. This was probably a problem that even the designers hadn't thought of.
As a close neighbor of Baishi City, the Shady Forest City players were certainly unwilling to fall behind in learning this advanced technology. In their spare time, it was common for them to go to Baishi City to collect large and small bags of White Lime. However, after all, it took more than six hours to go back and forth, so this thing was still quite precious to the Shady Forest City players. They were reluctant to use it unless it was necessary.
At this time, such an important scene, no one would be stingy. Each group of players had a small cloth bag in their hands. They grabbed a handful and sprinkled it, looking very much like Mao Mountain Taoist priests exorcising ghosts.
And this move was indeed effective. Some of the Thief players from Cloud Cloud City had already found the target, as Water Depth had expected, and were secretly following and monitoring. If the Thieves from Baishi City saw this strange scene, they would definitely understand what was going on. The Cloud Cloud City players were at a disadvantage because they were outsiders. They didn't pay attention to the other party's Anti-Stealth. Several Thieves were careless and were exposed. Some of the slower ones didn't even know that their skills had been interrupted and were completely exposed. They were still careless and beautiful!
It was really difficult for a ten-man team to face a Thief. Reflected Years began to receive reports from the Thieves that were sent out. He was shocked. "Not good, the other party seems to have Anti-Stealth!"
"No way? So many of them have Anti-Stealth? " The number of deaths showed that if the other party had this kind of skill, it wasn't just one person. Unsworn Sword didn't dare to believe it.
This sentence reminded Gu Xiaoshang, who wasn't far from them. He came over and said that Baishi City had a kind of White Lime.
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Reflected Years said angrily.
"No one asked me." Gu Xiaoshang spread his hands.
"Hurry and call them back!" Unsworn Sword said.
"There's no rush." Reflected Years was calm. "It's very easy to hide in this forest. They're just at a disadvantage because they think that they're safe with Stealth. Remind them to be careful. The scouting mission can still continue."
"They're all from the mercenary group, right?" Unsworn Sword whispered. Gu Xiaoshang wasn't far away. He didn't want his meticulous planning to be seen by the girl he liked.
Reflected Years nodded proudly. "And they don't have to pay extra."
"Haha!" Unsworn Sword heard this and was relieved. He waved his hand as if he didn't care about their lives. "Then tell them to continue monitoring."
"Of course." Reflected Years ordered the other party leaders.
"Have you calculated how many people we've lost so far?" Unsworn Sword asked Reflected Years.
"146 people!" Reflected Years said. "Including those who didn't come at the beginning and those who were too timid to cross the Black Dragon Mountain Range. But most of them died in the battle at Shady Forest City."
"Damn it! That guy, I'll find a chance to teach him a lesson. " Unsworn Sword was furious. He was still angry when he thought of Water Depth. "How are the mercenary group's losses?"
"This … I didn't calculate it in detail. I think it's about the same as us." Reflected Years said. The mercenary group had fewer people than Reigning Four Seas, but their losses were about the same. It was clear that Reigning Four Seas had a strong sense of self-preservation. The two of them discussed this in whispers. Although the mercenary group knew the purpose of hiring them from the beginning, it was not good to make a ruckus!
While the two discussed sneakily, Water Depth was also understanding the situation. Just as Reflected Years expected, after the Thieves knew that the other side had Anti-Stealth, they began to carefully hide. It was not easy to be discovered in such a forest. After receiving the report of the number of Thieves eliminated, Water Depth immediately understood that the other side had begun to pay attention to hiding. There was no direct way to deal with this. They could only search and try their luck.
However, since they grew up in the forest of Shady Forest City since level zero, the players of Shady Forest City were very familiar with the forest and their immersion in this kind of sneaky strategy. In comparison, the players of Cloud City were too inexperienced. The Thieves who carefully hid were constantly being caught and killed by the players of Shady Forest City. Of course, there were also those who escaped with their speed. However, Reflected Years' face was getting uglier and uglier. The other side was obviously taking care of the Thieves to hide their movements. They didn't know what kind of trap it was, but it seemed like it was already beckoning them.
