A giant axe landed heavily on the shield.
Even though Carolee could hear the sound from the screen, she could tell that the force of the axe hitting the shield was astonishing!
Standing in front of her was an elite Gnoll with a ferocious appearance.
The Flower of Falosi, the most elegant black swan on the stage of the theater, was now holding a huge shield to resist the onslaught of the Gnoll in the game.
When Carolee chose her character, she did not care about the combat profession at all. After customizing her appearance, Carolee directly entered the game.
However, her character was a warrior by default …
So, this human girl, who was the smallest in the team, carried a huge shield and directly engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Gnoll at close range.
At first, Carolee thought that she was playing a barbarian profession. Compared to a warrior, she preferred to play as a mage …
But …
Carolee pressed the button for Shield Bash, and the huge shield in her hand suddenly hit the Gnoll's nose. The huge monster let out a whimper, and its body suddenly took two steps back.
The Gnoll was angry and wanted to continue to use the axe in its hand to break through Carolee's defense. Carolee raised the shield again, and in an instant, the Flower of Falosi raised the long sword in her other hand and stabbed at the Gnoll.
The sound of the blade tearing flesh rang in Carolee's ears, and a scarlet damage number appeared above the head of the Gnoll.
At this moment, Carolee felt an inexplicable sense of pleasure.
She could feel the shield and the long sword, as well as the weight of the armor on her body. The mouse and keyboard seemed to have become her sword and shield.
This kind of feeling was far more refreshing than dancing on stage on her tiptoes!
"Carolee! Pay attention to your HP! "
Carolee was immersed in the thrill of turning into a fully-armored knight and suppressing her enemies. Josiah's reminder made her realize that she only had less than one-tenth of her HP left.
Carolee was sure that the Gnoll's attacks were all hitting her shield, but her character's HP was constantly decreasing.
This made Carolee a little flustered as she began to press the hotkey to replenish the potions. However, the recovery speed of the potions could not keep up with the speed at which her HP was decreasing.
A ray of holy light descended from the sky and Carolee's character's HP quickly recovered.
"You have been healed by Lia."
This notification popped up, and Carolee let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank you!" Carolee thanked him gratefully through a voice message.
However, the torrent of frost suddenly engulfed the Gnoll, and an even greater damage number appeared above its head.
At this moment, the gnoll ignored Carolee and ran towards the human male who was bombarding it with frost magic in the distance.
"Don't go! Come back quickly! Your opponent is me! "
Carolee controlled her character to chase all the way, but the gnoll ignored her completely. First, it killed the human male who was chanting frost magic with a few swings of its axe.
After completing the first kill, the gnoll circled around to the other side of the battlefield and once again killed the female priest who was casting holy light magic with its two axes.
Carolee could only watch as her teammates fell one by one. In the end, she was also declared dead. The group of people appeared in the graveyard in the form of a soul.
"Do you want to do it again?" asked Josiah.
Josiah's temporary team was able to contend with the enhanced Elite Gnoll for twenty minutes. After all, they were all newbies, and they did not even know what aggro was.
"I …"
"Miss, you still have a meet-and-greet session later."
Just as Carolee was about to press the resurrection button to continue fighting the Elite Gnoll, the Dark Wood Elf guard beside her reminded Carolee that she could not continue playing.
"Meet-And-Greet session?" Although Carolee was very reluctant to participate in the series directed by her mother, Carolee rarely slacked off in other matters of her acting career.
This included basic training such as dance performances, as well as the meet-and-greet session that Josiah had arranged for her.
These were all opportunities for her to collect the power of faith for the Dark Wood Elves.
"Josiah! Will we be able to play it later? " Carolee took out a mirror and fixed her makeup while asking Josiah in the voice chat.
"This is just a sample test. A lot of things are not done well. If you still want to play, I will organize another test tomorrow."
"I still have some work to do today, but I must kill this gnoll tomorrow!"
Carolee made a declaration similar to that of a leader. After seeing a High Elf enter her lounge, she had no choice but to put down her shield and sword. From a charging warrior, she became the center of attention on the stage, the flower of Falosi.
…
Today's test ended with the flower of Falosi going offline. No matter how much Fuya tried to send punctuation marks to Josiah, there was no way to stop the World Gate from closing.
Cheil also logged out of the game, but not long after, she received a message from the 'Flame Bearer'.
"What do you think of this game?"
"It's okay." Cheil's fingers paused here and finally added, "To be honest, I don't think it's as fun as the Holy Spirit."
This was the most realistic feeling Cheil had after experiencing it. The form of the game presented a world that was close to the real world. But after the initial shock, Cheil only felt that the game was quite interesting.
Back then, the Holy Spirit gave Cheil countless hours of the urge to continue playing the next round.
"That's because you haven't experienced the real fun of this game."
Josiah's DEMO test this time gave Cheil a character with full level and full equipment. The exploration and growth in MMORPGs, and a lot of interesting things to play, were not explained at all.
"The real fun, Josiah. The frost magic I use in real life is better than the characters in the game."
Cheil jokingly sent an emoji of an owl's eyes shining.
This was also why Cheil felt that the game was a little mediocre. She was an expert in ice magic in real life, and using an ice mage in this game seemed a little … boring?
"So, Miss Owl … If all conditions permit, what character do you want to try the most? Or … what kind of fighting style do you think is the most cool? "Josiah asked.
Josh's question was very vague. Shay had mastered powerful frost magic at such a young age, but he was still a young man.
She mainly used frost magic in battle, with swordsmanship as a support, but in Cheil's fantasy …
"Assassin … I guess," Cheil answered Josiah with some uncertainty.
This was influenced by the book "Diary of the Heresy Judge." The female protagonist in the diary was a judge assassin, quietly appearing behind the enemy, slipping the enemy's throat and leaving easily without them noticing. The scene left a deep impression on Cheil.
"Then I can try a different class next time. Every combat class has a completely different way of fighting, and even the same class will have different ways of fighting due to different talents and weapons … But this game actually has other fun."
Cheil read Josiah's message. There was only one thought in her mind, and that was, "After saying so much, when will the server open?"
"Then can I change my class for tomorrow's battle?"
Cheil finished editing this paragraph, but before she could send it out, a herald hurriedly ran into the room.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! " The herald's breathing was very rapid. After he adjusted his rapid breathing, he told Cheil the bad news.
"The Iron Guard City has declared martial law, and the citizens of our country are prohibited from entering or leaving," the herald said.
"Martial law?"
Cheil first sent the edited message to Josiah, then stood up from her seat.
The Iron Guard City was a city bordering the Land of Frost and the Iron Nation, located below the Deep Green Basin … It was also the trade hub between the Land of Frost and the Iron Nation.
