"Brother Mu, you should have noticed that after the battle two days ago, the number of players participating in the battle has begun to drop, and it seems to be dropping faster and faster …"
"It's getting harder and harder to find an Orc tribe that can fight. Many players have returned to the Underworld and the Elven Forest to farm monsters."
"If this continues, our original advantage will be exhausted. If the final battle suddenly comes and we don't have enough people, then we'll be done for."
Zeng Zeng said.
Li Mu nodded in agreement.
He had thought of what Zeng Zeng said.
"So … after your discussion, you decided to take the initiative to attack while there are still many people?"
Li Mu asked.
"Yes, take the initiative to attack!"
Salty Meow waved his fist and made a fighting gesture.
Then, he added with a smile, "Of course.
Because the defense of Sandstorm City is too strong, we didn't attack Sandstorm City directly. Instead, we attacked the Orc army stationed outside Sandstorm City! "
"Wasn't our original plan to wait for the Orcs' strength to be depleted to a certain extent before taking the initiative to counterattack? Although there are still many Orcs, I think if we really fight them in the wild, we still have a chance of winning! "
After hearing Salty Meow's words, the other players nodded in agreement.
Although the battle two days ago didn't deal a fatal blow to the Orc army, it allowed the gamers to see their true strength.
The Orcs lost forty thousand troops, but the players' casualties were less than five thousand.
From the results and losses, the players had won a complete victory.
After a few months of leveling up and fighting to the death, their strength was no longer the same as before. When fighting against the Orcs, many players found that they were able to suppress the Orcs.
In fact, it made sense.
The average strength of the Orc army was not even Upper Black Iron, and the weakest among the players was above Upper Black Iron.
Even if the players lacked combat experience, with their fearless spirit and strength, it was enough to give the players the upper hand.
From this point of view, even if they did not continue to deplete the Orc army, the players were fully qualified to fight against the Orcs in the wild.
Wasn't it just one versus two?
In Bluestar's history, there had been cases where a few had won against many.
Moreover, they didn't intend to attack the city, but the orcs outside the city!
This was equivalent to lowering the difficulty again.
If they fought well, the Players might be able to inflict serious damage to the Orc army outside Sandstorm City!
This was a big fish. There were more than 200,000 of them. Even if a small portion of them died in the battle two days ago, the remaining players were enough to 'eat' a good meal.
As for attacking the city …
Various signs indicated that without the intervention of mythical powers, the players really did not have much of a chance.
After all, the storyline had mentioned that Sandstorm City was plotting against the goddess.
And to be able to plot against a goddess, one had to be at least a myth, right?
Such an existence was a complete blow to the players.
Most probably, he could only wait for the plot to kill him.
"So … after your discussion, you decided to change your plan. Instead of targeting Sandstorm City, you decided to focus solely on eliminating the Orc army?"
Li Mu asked.
"That's right!"
The others nodded one after another.
"Not only that, Brother Mu, have you forgotten that the various main storylines in Elven Nation were all triggered based on some of the players' actions. So … if we really defeat the army outside Sandstorm City, maybe the wind will blow!"
Demacia chuckled.
Li Mu's eyes lit up.
He understood what Demacia was trying to say.
Now, the players did not have the strength to break through Sandstorm City.
But if they triggered the plot to kill him, it would be different.
To put it bluntly, it was a gamble. But according to the previous game experience, there was a possibility of success!
Not to mention anything else, if this operation triggered a decisive battle and ultimately led to the appearance of the mythical powers, then the players might really be able to fish in troubled waters!
But … there was still a problem to be solved.
"I have no objection to taking the initiative to attack the Orc army, but I need to remind you that our high-end strength is not as good as theirs. If we take the initiative to attack, we must ensure that a few powerful NPCs participate to share the pressure."
Li Mu said.
As he spoke, he looked at Salty Meow.
Salty Meow was taken aback for a moment, then understood.
She patted her chest and said confidently,
"Leave Merril and Tiberia to me. I guarantee that they will fight to join the battle!"
Er …
She was rich and willful.
Li Mu shifted his gaze and looked at Fried Tomato.
Fried Tomato raised his eyebrows and paused for a moment before saying, "I will talk to Rose.
But the price of persuading her to join the battle needs to be shared by everyone. "
For more than a month, Spider Queen Rose had been cooperating with the First Army, and the First Army was the Guild with the most Cave Spiders.
So … Tomato felt that he could say a few words in front of Rose.
Of course, it was in the form of a trade.
"Okay."
Li Mu nodded.
Although Rose had obvious weaknesses, she was still a Legendary. Dealing with a Gold professional was not a problem.
But …
"But the most important thing is to convince Big Sister. Big Sister is the real ruthless person."
Salty Meow said.
Li Mu agreed.
"Indeed, although Big Sister is a Gold professional, she's the closest to the Goddess. She's more powerful than a Legendary professional. If we can persuade her to join the battle, then we'll have the upper hand."
Zero, who was God's Favored, had unfathomable abilities. This was a well-known fact among the players.
In the official forum, the players ranked the NPCs in the faction, and she was undoubtedly number one.
Of course, the ranking did not take into account the True Gods. If there was a True God, then it would be Goddess Eve, who could kill Gods as easily as killing chickens.
Until now, Li Mu could still vividly recall the scene when the Goddess killed Demigod Walker. He could still hear Demigod Walker's blood-curdling screams as he was dragged away by the tentacles …
Er, no, it was the vines.
After Li Mu finished speaking, the tent suddenly became quiet.
Li Mu lifted his head and saw that everyone was looking at him.
Li Mu was speechless.
"So … you want me to persuade Big Sister?"
He pointed at himself.
"Of course! In the whole server, the person who's the best at licking … cough, no, the person with the highest Faction Favorability is you, Brother Mu! If you go, the success rate will be the highest! "
Demacia laughed.
Li Mu was speechless.
You wanted to say licking, right?
You must have wanted to say licking, right?!
You … You deserve to be despised by others.
Li Mu's mouth twitched.
"Alright, I'll try."
He said.
…
"So … you came to ask me to join the battle?"
In the luxurious tent that she used contribution points to get the players to build for her, Eve looked at the respectful Li Mu and said calmly.
"That's right. After our discussion, we think it's time to take the initiative to attack."
Li Mu replied.
Eve did not comment.
To be honest, although she admired the players' attitude when they first came up with the plan, she always understood that it was actually very difficult to take down Sandstorm City in this war.
The cause of this war was the confrontation of mythical powers. It was the conspiracy of the true gods behind the half-orcs against Eve.
And it was obvious that the "World Tree Kingdom" in Sandstorm City was the trap.
Even Sandstorm City itself was not safe for Eve.
She did not think that with her current strength, she could escape unscathed after falling into the enemy's trap.
Because she might have to face the siege of multiple mythical beings!
This time, Oulleur was going all out. If the war really started, his other two demigod-level followers would definitely descend, and he might even personally descend a demigod-level true god avatar.
And not in her own divine territory. To be honest … even with the true god weapon Withering Heart, Eve did not think that she could easily defeat them.
After all … she also had to limit her strength to demigod-level.
That was not all.
Since the other party dared to set a trap for a true god whose real body was in the secular world, it meant that the other party had a certain degree of confidence.
The real hidden enemy was definitely not just Oulleur and his followers …
The God of Darkness and Shadows, Holdl, would definitely provide support. Even the two evil gods who had appeared in the war in the underground world who were on good terms with him were likely to participate.
These existences added together were already a very powerful force.
Eve was just one person after all.
Originally, Eve was still thinking about whether she could get some support from the dragon race in the form of a deal, but after thinking about it, she felt that the chances were not high and gave up.
Other than purifying her bloodline, she did not seem to have any other conditions that could persuade the other party to participate in the war.
And the purified bloodline had already been used as a condition of the deal with the Megalosaurus …
At most, with the addition of the demon wolf Fenrir that she borrowed from Hella.
Under such circumstances, facing so many enemies at once, it was too easy to fail.
And her original idea was actually just to wash away the suspicion of her being the World Tree, and at the same time, to deal a heavy blow to the Half-Orcs' power.
Of course, it would be better if she could get rid of a myth while she was at it.
Eve had the Heart of Withering.
It was still possible to seize the opportunity to seal an unlucky person, snatch the person, and then run away.
As the saying goes, quit while you're ahead.
Therefore, after learning about the players' plans from Li Mu, she nodded gently.
"Okay."
Receiving support from Eve, Li Mu was overjoyed.
He bowed respectfully to Eve, and then happily left in the sandstorm.
And Eve sat back in her seat, drinking the flower tea provided by Alice while browsing the players' information in the game system.
To be honest, if they did not attack Sandstorm City and only attacked the army stationed outside, it was still very safe.
And if the players fought smoothly, it was very likely that they would directly draw out the true power of Oulleur.
The altars in the Elven Forest and the Orloss Demiplane were ready. As long as the mythical existence here appeared, the stage was set, and she could "cooperate" to play a "big show" to clear her identity.
The only thing that she might have to worry about was that Eve could escape unscathed, but the players could not.
Especially after the mythical existence arrived …
Would killing in the plot lead to the city being breached?
No.
It was more likely that the whole team would be wiped out.
"If the team is wiped out, then so be it. As long as I kidnap a myth, even if the players are wiped out, I can still recoup my losses. As for the players' feelings … After this, I'll just announce the mission reward and cancel the resurrection penalty. "
She thought in her heart.
"However, since I've decided to fight, I'll still do it as a mission. Hmm … I'll trigger the hidden plot. It'll make Li Mu's plan official, and I can also gather more people."
With this thought, Eve planned to use her divine power to release a new system message.
But at this moment, her heart suddenly jolted as she sensed a familiar aura …
Eve raised her head and looked in the direction of the Elven Forest with a surprised expression.
After thinking for a second, her consciousness changed and returned to her original body.
…
Elven Forest, Fei Lengcui.
It had been almost two years since the players recovered this place, and the city's renovation and renovation work had long been completed.
Although thousands of years had destroyed too many traces, and this beautiful Elven city was no longer the size it used to be, the entire Fei Lengcui had been reborn and looked brand new.
Exquisite and complicated patterns, dignified and majestic buildings, exquisite and charming gardens …
Even if it was not a perfect restoration, it was definitely beautiful and pleasant.
On the streets of Fei Lengcui.
A handsome silver-haired elf wearing a silver robe was strolling slowly.
He smiled and looked at the buildings of Fei Lengcui. At the same time, he could not help but sigh.
"What a terrifying renovation speed …"
Then, he shook his head.
"It's just a little too quiet."
It was indeed quiet.
No, it was not an exaggeration to say that there was almost no sign of human habitation.
The buildings on the streets were brand new, and some of the houses had obviously been cleaned, but it was hard to see anyone in the city.
It was as if everyone had disappeared.
Only the bell from the direction of the temple could be heard, proving that there were still residents in this city.
"Because most Elves have joined the Holy War, this place is naturally much quieter."
At this moment, an ethereal and pleasant voice sounded behind the silver-haired elf.
The silver-haired elf seemed to have expected the voice, and he was not surprised.
He touched his chin and said in realization.
"No wonder, no wonder …"
Then, he gently turned around and looked at the silver-haired, purple-eyed elf girl who suddenly appeared behind him.
He said helplessly, "Your Holiness Eve, you seem to like to suddenly appear behind people."
"Likewise. You also like to suddenly visit without warning, Your Holiness Reinhardt."
The silver-haired, purple-eyed elf girl, who was Eve, replied.
The one who stepped into Fei Lengcui was none other than the Platinum Dragon King, Reinhardt, who had once met Eve and represented the Dragon race to sign the True God's contract!
After hearing Eve's words, Reinhardt raised his eyebrows and shook his head.
"Your Holiness Eve, I didn't come without warning this time."
"I was asked by an old friend to bring back a junior who had gone crazy from playing."
