"Guild leader, what do we do!!" Almost all of the guilds said the same thing. After all, it was impossible for the entire guild to not notice the change in the situation.
Yes, what do we do? At this time, Sword without Oath, Against the Current, and the other guild leaders only wanted to curse. Most people only knew of their glory in front of others, but they didn't know that they were in a difficult situation when they needed to make a decision. This was especially true at a time like this, where a single misstep could leave a bad impression on the entire city. Both of them held their breaths and remained silent, hoping that the other party would speak first. They would rather give the other party the chance to give the order. Or, like before, a hothead would pop up and make a fuss and deal with this matter!
No! No one made a fuss. In the past, it was easy for hot-blooded youths to jump out in a stalemate. But now that the situation was more detailed, those who were easily hot-blooded would not jump out at this time, because they would feel that it was good to continue killing like this.
Sword without Oath and Against the Current were suffering! Pulling their hair!
"Guild leader, hurry up and make a decision. We can't drag this out any longer." Some of the players who understood that the situation wasn't looking good were very anxious and urged their guild leaders.
The guild leaders were also very anxious, so they came over to urge the other guild leaders, mainly Sword without Oath and Against the Current.
As a result, the two of them cried and cursed.
This time, the two of them made up their minds and didn't want to casually make a decision, so they held a democratic meeting in the guild leader's team chat. The democratic representatives, with the guild leaders as the main body, held their own opinions and engaged in an intense discussion. Sword without Oath and Against the Current, these two old foxes, looked on with dumbfounded expressions, hoping for a voice that would suppress everyone else. It could be said that these two guild leaders lacked courage, but it had to be said that these two guild leaders had very high standards. At this time, even if someone came out to make a decision, if they were wrong, then they would just be scapegoats. If they were right, then this person's influence might not be able to compete with the two of them. After all, the two of them had real strength, which was an important foundation in the game.
"Everyone, don't argue, don't argue, listen to me!" At this moment, someone said, telling the guild leaders in the chat to calm down. He wanted to make a private announcement.
When Unsworn Sword and Against the Current saw this ID, their hearts skipped a beat. Black Index Finger was also the guild leader of one of the five major guilds. Who would have thought that this person would have the guts to speak at this time?
The channel gradually quietened down. Unsworn Sword and Against the Current waited for Black Index Finger to speak. This person had the strength to stand up to them … At this time, Unsworn Sword and Against the Current were not together, but their hearts were together, and they were nervous.
"We have to retreat!" Black Index Finger said simply after the channel went silent. Unsworn Sword and Against the Current heaved a sigh of relief. So this was just an idea. Daring to make a decision wasn't enough. More importantly, being able to come up with an idea that was courageous was what was truly courageous. For example, if Black Index Finger dared to suggest persisting in the fight or suggesting a strategy to maintain the situation and eventually win, his reputation would skyrocket today. Unfortunately, the plan he suggested was to retreat. No matter how correct and reasonable it was, it wasn't to everyone's liking. Unsworn Sword and Against the Current knew that retreating was the best option in the current situation, but neither of them said it because they didn't want to leave the impression that they were too weak. These two weren't just focusing on the guild's strength anymore. They also had to pay attention to the guild's image.
As soon as Black Index Finger said those two words, different voices shouted. Just as Unsworn Sword and Against the Current expected, they were looking down on Black Index Finger for being cowardly.
Black Index Finger shouted for silence a few more times before saying, "If we continue fighting, I believe in everyone's strength. If we make careful arrangements, it won't be a problem for us to drag on for a few more hours. But the problem is … that place definitely won't last for long."
That piece … Everyone knew which "that piece" the black index finger was referring to. It was the cannon fodder army. Everyone fell silent. The cannon fodder army definitely couldn't compare to the regular army. If they weren't going to fight, they were basically going to die. Although they had a lot of people, the frequency at which they died was too high. After effective organization, although the death rate was somewhat suppressed, it was still several times faster than the regular army. If this continued, the regular army would indeed collapse before the regular army. When that time came, the system would come over and provide support, breaking the balance on the regular army's side. Needless to say, the result would be the same.
"Then should we quickly transfer some people over there?" Someone suggested.
"I'm afraid it's a little too late." Black Index Finger said, "The current balance has also been prepared in advance. After a period of continuous combat, it took a lot of effort to maintain the balance. If we suddenly change it now, it's very likely that the system will collapse in one go. I think everyone understands this."
"So, we can only retreat!" Black Index Finger concluded.
Many of the previous voices fell silent this time, but an unexpected person spoke up.
"We can't retreat!!!" The person who spoke was Against the Current.
As Against the Current listened to Black Index Finger's words, he felt that something was wrong. On the surface, Black Index Finger was analyzing the current situation, but secretly, he was criticizing the mistake of the cannon fodder army's arrangement. Because of this arrangement, the difficulty of adjusting the current situation was greatly increased. And the cannon fodder army was precisely Against the Current's idea.
The idea of rotating the army to go into battle to exhaust the system was proposed by Unsworn Sword. As for reducing the manpower and eliminating the lazy members, that was proposed by Black Index Finger. Against the Current originally had a key mission in hand, which was why they didn't pay much attention to the frontal attack. In the end, that important mission was gone, and the frontal battle became the only place to decide the outcome of the battle. How could Against the Current be willing to not have their own plans for the frontal battle? So, they added a method of using the cannon fodder army to attract some of the firepower and relieve the pressure on the main army. Everyone felt that this was a good idea, so they naturally followed it. Now that the cannon fodder army had become the key to affecting the battle, if they were to be held accountable, Against the Current, who came up with this idea, would naturally be held responsible.
Black Index Finger was analyzing the situation and directly pointed out this matter. If they retreated now, the players would naturally discuss, "Why?"
So, someone answered, "Because the cannon fodder army can't hold on any longer."
So, someone asked, "Whose f * cking idea was it to use the cannon fodder army?"
So, someone answered again, "Against the Current."
With these two questions and two answers, Against the Current was enough to kill them. So, he suddenly realized that they couldn't retreat!! Especially when the black index finger had penetrated this layer. This guy, is he trying to trick me? Against the Current felt a chill down his spine. For a moment, he couldn't care about anything else and hurriedly spoke up to stop the retreat.
As expected of a famous guild leader in Cloud Cloud City. Although they were both level 6 guild leaders, his words obviously carried more weight than Black Index Finger's. When Black Index Finger spoke, those who disagreed with him shushed him, but Against the Current stood his ground and said, "What idea does Guild Leader Against the Current have?"
"It's not easy for the battle to reach this point. Everyone has seen the rules of the death count. If we retreat now, all of our previous efforts will be nullified. However, I believe that the system will record the number of deaths. The next time we fight again, we will be unable to fight for five minutes, ten minutes, or even fifteen minutes. Rather than that, we might as well continue on our current foundation! "Against the Current said.
"But … what about the other side?"
"Leave that side to me! I will try my best to buy as much time as possible for everyone. Brothers, please give it your all. We must win this match in one go! "Countercurrent's words were powerful and resonant, but he was feeling extremely gloomy inside. He was forcing a duck onto a perch. Since retreating would only bring him trouble, he might as well go all out. Even if he lost in the end, there would still be people who would remember his tireless efforts. If there were a few more changes in the battle that could decide the outcome, then he would be in the limelight.
There were quite a few people who supported Countercurrent's idea. Black Index Finger, who had originally suggested retreating, didn't insist on it. He simply said in the chat, "Since Guild Leader Countercurrent is so confident, why don't we give it a try? I don't think I can bear to retreat."
Son of a b * tch! Against the Current cursed. This guy was just mocking him. What confidence was there to talk about? Wasn't he just trying to let everyone remember that this round was entirely Against the Current's idea?
Unsworn Sword wanted to be invisible, but who asked him to have such a good foundation? At this moment, there were people who really remembered him as a guild leader and asked, "Guild Leader Unsworn, what do you think? Why haven't you said anything? "
Sword of No Oath typed the word "hehe" and said, "Everyone's analysis is so clear and logical that I can't even interrupt. Now that the discussion is almost over, let's do it. I won't say anything else. "
Son of a b * tch! Against the Current was furious again. How could he not understand the Sword of No Oath? This guy loved to broadcast alone. There were times when he couldn't interrupt. This time, he had made a fool out of himself.
"Then, I'll leave that side to Guild Leader Against the Current. Brothers, we have to hold on and kill them. Don't let Guild Leader Against the Current's efforts go to waste!!! "Unsworn Sword shouted at the end, and the other guild leaders cheered in unison. Against the Current was terrified. Guarding day and night, it was hard to guard against a thief in the family! At this time, if Sword of Unsworn Sword was up to no good, deliberately making a fool of himself and not putting in the effort, he would be in deep trouble. He could only hope that this guy would look at the big picture and not play around at such an important moment …
Against the Current left anxiously. Unsworn Sword continued to command the battle. As the commander of the battle, these guild leaders would not let themselves die so easily. At the very least, they would bring enough Clerics. However, it wasn't that the guild leader's life was precious and could not die. It was just that they had to have a commander in a group battle.
On the big battlefield, the plan was set. Against the Current became the leader of the cannon fodder group and went to take up the post with tears streaming down his face. The System was still playing according to plan, and the ghostly comrade Gu Fei Sword was already wantonly operating behind the enemy lines.
"We're here." Brother You was the closest and was the first to arrive at the central camp. He sent a message to the other two.
"Mm, thanks for your hard work, Brother You. You can also gather some information and write a battle report or something!" Gu Fei said.
"Is there a need for me to do that?" Brother You replied. He saw that there were online reporters from various websites at the camp. They kept asking questions to the revived players.
"I'm almost there." Gu Fei replied. He could already see the revival camp in front of him. Although there were many types of classes in the game, it was still the era of cold weapons. The construction of the camp was very simple. There wasn't even a wall, just a bunch of messy tents. It was obvious that this was a camp, and the revival point of the camp was even bigger than the revival points of the seven classes in the city.
"I'm here!" Gu Fei stepped into the resurrection point and was sending a message to the two of them. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew past him. Gu Fei didn't even bother to look and dodged to the side. When he looked back, he saw a guard with a sharp sword in his hand. The second attack had arrived.
"Wuwuwu" An unknown sound echoed in the camp. The revived players in the camp were confused. Then, Gu Fei heard the guard in front of him shout, "A spy has infiltrated the camp!!!"
Gu Fei's face was full of tears. So this guy was an NPC. The players couldn't recognize Gu Fei and his kind, but how could the NPC not recognize him? Gu Fei's blatant act of sneaking into the camp was immediately caught by the NPCs.
When the players heard this voice, they were shocked at first, then excited. They asked each other, "What spy? Is it a mission? "
"Yes, a mission. Hurry up and take a look!!!"
"Where's the spy? Hurry up and catch the spy!!! "
Some of these players hadn't finished recuperating and couldn't leave the camp. Some had simply died and hadn't finished recuperating. At this moment, they were all excited and ran around the camp looking for the spy.
A few players instantly appeared at Gu Fei's side. Gu Fei complained in his heart, but this NPC wasn't weak. It wasn't easy to escape in a short time. Those players were obviously very eager for the mission. In the blink of an eye, they rushed forward. Gu Fei's eyes scanned his surroundings. He lowered his sword and prepared to turn around and use Double Flame Flash to clear this group of people. In the end, he heard the player at the front say, "Brother, you're really fast!!!" After saying this, he saw this guy quickly sneak behind the NPC and viciously stab him in the back. He shouted, "Brothers, hurry up, don't let this guy escape."
The players responded. Spells, arrows, heavy swords, and giant axes all greeted the NPC. For a moment, Gu Fei didn't have a place to intervene. He was stunned on the spot.
His experience was killing him! Gu Fei shook his head. Who told you that a spy had to be from the system?
"Damn, he's dressed quite well. Brother, how did you find out he was a spy?" Someone turned around and asked Gu Fei.
"Cough, a system notification." Gu Fei said.
"Oh, good luck, good luck!" That person shouted.
"Good luck!" Gu Fei nodded in response. Seeing that more and more players were rushing over, Gu Fei didn't dare join in the fun. He guiltily retreated to the side.
The players weren't the only ones who would come to catch spies, and there were definitely more than one guard in the entire camp. The system guards had also heard the news and were rushing over. At this time, Gu Fei had already silently retreated from the camp. The system guards were truly a team of action. When they saw so many players surrounding their comrade, they didn't bother to explain themselves. Instead, they went up to help, and when they saw someone attack a guard, they immediately retaliated.
The players cried out in alarm, "Damn, so many spies! Help!!! "
At first, the few of them wanted to take the quest by themselves, but when they saw the situation, they knew they couldn't keep it up any longer. They hurriedly called for reinforcements, and a large number of players arrived. United as one, they eliminated the "spy". Gu Fei hid in the small forest next to the camp, watching in shock.
"Damn, we can't sneak into the camp! The system guards will probably discover our identities. "Gu Fei received a message from Sword Ghost at this time. Sword Ghost was really honest and careful. When he arrived at the camp, he observed the terrain and saw the guards. As soon as he saw the guards, he knew that this was a group of NPCs that they didn't want to deal with. NPCs had an automatic enemy detection system. Disguises and masks didn't work. Sword Ghost sent a message to Gu Fei while stealthily looking for any loopholes in the system guards!
"Yes, I know." Gu Fei said.
"You've been discovered?" Sword Ghost asked.
"Yes!"
"How is it?"
"It's very lively." Gu Fei said.
"What?" Sword Ghost didn't understand.
Gu Fei said simply. Sword Ghost was dumbfounded, "There's such a thing?"
"You can try." Gu Fei said.
"Isn't that too mean?" Sword Ghost said.
"I didn't do it on purpose." Gu Fei said.
"Then I'll do it on purpose. For the sake of victory!" Sword Ghost said.
"You can do it." Gu Fei said.
Sword Ghost had always been swift and decisive. When he saw that there was a guard in front of him, he didn't use Stealth and rushed forward to attack! Sure enough, there was a "wu wu wu" sound and the guard shouted, "There's a spy in the camp!!!" The shouts of the guards were like weapons on the map. They weren't loud, but the players in the camp could hear them. Their reactions were exactly the same as those in Gu Fei's camp. "What spy? What spy? It's a quest, isn't it?"
Sword Ghost's attack was obviously not seen by others. However, when the players noticed him, he was prepared and shouted, "Hurry up! He's strong, we can't beat him!!!"
"Bro, hold on!!!" Several players rushed forward and used magic arrows, greatswords, and greataxes to greet the little soldier's head.
"Hit him a few times and retreat when he's not paying attention. There will be a lot of guards in a bit. Be careful not to get exposed." Gu Fei was still giving him an experience notification.
Sword Ghost understood tacitly and pretended to fight for a while. Once he was in Stealth, he immediately used it. It was very normal for a Thief to go into stealth and ambush them. The others didn't think much of it, so Sword Ghoul quietly left just like that. The players and the guards arrived, so the players shouted, "So many spies!" and exchanged fire with the guards.
"How stupid. I don't know when they'll react." Sword Ghost said to Gu Fei.
"It probably won't be too long. I have to hurry." Gu Fei said.
"What?" Sword Ghost asked.
"I'm going to Brother You's side." Gu Fei said.
They really wanted to see the world in chaos! Sword Ghost sighed.
