Blow up the Guardian Array?
Hearing this, Xu Yuheng couldn't help but frown. Even Bai Feng stopped smiling and became serious.
Although they hadn't seen it before, after playing the game for so long, they knew what the Guardian Array was.
The reason why the five main cities of the Roland Empire were able to survive despite being surrounded by interstellar beasts was because of these five protective arrays.
The Magistrate of Orchid City gave up on the central town because the Guardian Array was very weak. Holes would appear from time to time, and the border needed more people to defend, so in the end, they simply focused on the border.
If the Guardian Array of Orchid City was blown up, the civilians who were exposed to the Galactic Beasts would face a terrible fate.
What was more deadly was that the population of Orchid City was concentrated around the Guardian Array. Once the Galactic Beasts attacked, it would be too late to escape.
Then, the fall of Orchid City would be a sure thing.
And with the current strength of the players, it would take a long time to recover the lost land after the game officially opened.
These days, they watched the live broadcast of the escort team — —
One-star Galactic Beasts, levels ranging from LV10 to LV19, but their strength increased exponentially.
A LV10 Galactic Beast had no less than 10000 HP, and it had high HP and defense. With the current level of the players, it would be impossible to defeat it without a team of 20 people.
It would be fine if they could kill them one by one, but the fatal thing was that the Galactic Beasts liked to gather in groups. Killing one would easily attract a group.
This was also the difficulty of the NPC army clearing the road, and the Galactic Beasts' AI was also very high!
They were completely unlike the brainless monsters in the past online games. They had keen senses and excellent survival skills, just like real wild animals.
Once there was any movement, it would easily attract attention, and then it would cause an unpredictable chain reaction.
In short, if Orchid City was lost at this stage, it would be difficult to take it back with the players.
And even if they could take it back, those NPCs …
Would all die.
Not to mention others, just the thought of Jayne's three children dying under the feet of the Galactic Beasts made Xu Yuheng and Bai Feng feel dignified.
The main city was lost …
Was this game crazy? The server hadn't even opened yet, and they already had such an exciting plot?
Xu Yuheng had secretly turned on the recording system.
Until now, he and Bai Feng hadn't received any mission notifications. He didn't know if it was because they were in a dead state.
After the young woman asked, the room fell into a short silence. Then the old man said softly, "Bei Na, are you scared?"
The woman named Bei Na lowered her head under his sharp gaze.
She stammered, "If … if Lan Yue City is lost, we will also become food for the interstellar beasts …"
"There's no need to worry about that."
The old man narrowed his eyes and took out a small bottle from his sleeve. "His Majesty Norton gave this to me. Do you know what this is?"
Bei Na and the black-cloaked figure looked over, their eyes filled with curiosity.
"This is the blood of the four-star Golden Weasel."
The old man looked at the two of them with a surprised expression, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes.
"You should know how strong a four-star beast is, right?"
The two nodded.
Not to mention four-star beasts, even the army of the Roland Empire had to pay a high price to deal with three-star beasts, let alone four-star beasts.
At this moment, the two of them couldn't help but yearn for the Bevat Empire that could easily hunt four-star beasts.
Noticing this, the old man nodded with satisfaction.
They betrayed the Roland Empire just to survive. They weren't wrong!
He had experienced too much. The Roland Empire a hundred years ago, although it was greatly damaged after the natural disaster, still had enough strength.
But what about a hundred years later?
Not even a tenth of the original cities were left! In the end, only these five crumbling cities were left, and Lan Yue City had become an isolated island.
This decaying empire would eventually be destroyed by the interstellar beasts.
They only sped up the process. This was the trend of history, and there was no way to stop it. Only those who followed the trend could obtain enough capital to survive in advance.
"The body odor of the golden weasel is extremely smelly. Even some five-star and six-star interstellar beasts don't dare to approach, let alone three-star beasts and below," the old man continued.
"As long as we smear the blood of the golden weasel on our bodies, we can safely escape to other cities, and there will be people to meet us."
The black cloak listened to his words with a face full of awe and excitement.
Five-star and six-star interstellar beasts …
That was only heard of in legends, and the old man actually said it so casually.
Of course, he didn't think that the old man had the strength to deal with five-star and six-star beasts, but the old man had a lot of contact with the people of the Bevat Empire, so it must be those lizardmen …
The black cloak rubbed his hands and looked at the young woman.
"Bena, it's already at this point, are you still thinking of backing down?" He persuaded.
"I know you're soft-hearted, but don't forget that you participated in several operations before and killed many soldiers. Even if you leave the organization, the Roland Empire won't let you go."
"What a good opportunity this is!"
"The stronghold in the imperial city has been destroyed, so it's time for us to make a contribution. As long as we complete this, it will definitely be a great achievement! Elder Bryce might even be promoted to the leader because of this great achievement. "
"At that time, although we'll leave Orchid City, we'll definitely be able to obtain better resources than now. When the Bevat Empire takes over Esnow Star, will our status still be lower?"
Bena bit her lips, her eyes flashing, obviously moved by the prospects he described.
But …
Thinking of the tens of millions of lives in Orchid City, she was a little conflicted.
"Bena, you have to know that it's only a matter of time before Orchid City is breached."
The black cloak continued to bewitch her, "You've been active at the border, haven't you noticed? The frequency of holes appearing in Orchid City's protective barrier is getting higher and higher. "
"Just today, it appeared in the east, south, and west."
"How long do you think the protective barrier can last with the current situation?" He said in a low voice, "It's only a month or two."
"A month or two, can Orchid City turn the tide? That's impossible, "the black-cloaked figure said resolutely.
"That's right." The old man nodded, "Orchid City will be destroyed sooner or later. Since that's the case, it's better to bring it forward so that we can get some benefits."
Bena's face turned pale. She hesitated for a moment, still somewhat puzzled, "Why must Orchid City be destroyed? Since the Bevat Empire is so powerful, why can't they send troops to rescue us? "
"Sigh …"
Hearing her words, the old man didn't get angry. Instead, he sighed, "If you want to blame someone, blame the little emperor who just ascended the throne of Roland."
"Originally, we agreed to hand over Esnow Star's authority. His Majesty Arnold also gathered the army and prepared to send troops, but the day before, the little emperor suddenly went back on his word!"
Bena and the black cloak widened their eyes. It was obviously the first time they heard this top secret information.
The old man continued, his voice full of anger.
"And after going back on his word, the little emperor suddenly increased his efforts and destroyed all the strongholds of the organization in the imperial city. There hasn't been any news for more than a month now, those people are probably already …"
He shook his head, his face full of regret.
"Therefore, the reason why we have to use such an extreme method is all because of the little emperor!"
He gritted his teeth and said.
"It's because he refused to let go of the authority and refused to let the Bevat Empire send troops to Esnow Star, that's why so many people died."
"Now, we're blowing up Orchid City's protective array to teach him a lesson. At the same time, we'll let the entire empire see the ugly face of the little emperor."
The old man said gloomily, "If he knows what's good for him and accepts the aid of the Bevat Empire, then Orchid City probably won't be destroyed."
He hid the small bottle in his sleeve and said in a low voice, "His Majesty Arnold contacted me.
"His Majesty Arnold has contacted me. Right now, the Bevate Empire's army is on standby. Once the little emperor agrees to the Galactic Alliance, he will be able to lead powerful reinforcements into Eshe Star through the safe passage."
"With the strength of the Bevat Empire, do you think these mere 1-star and 2-star interstellar beasts will be a match for them?"
"At that time, Orchid City will be rescued."
"Although some people will be sacrificed, more people will be liberated from the shadow of the interstellar beasts. They will live a stable and happy life under His Majesty Arnold's rule."
The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became. He patted the other two on the shoulder and said loudly, "It's normal to feel burdened in your heart. As long as you always remember that you are doing the right thing, your hearts will be saved. "
Betna and the man in the black cloak looked at each other. Although she still couldn't bear it, she was obviously convinced.
They were not wrong, they were doing the right thing.
They were working to save this country, and the House of Roland was the main culprit that prevented everyone from obtaining happiness!
The old man looked at the two and smiled with satisfaction. Then, he restrained his expression and discussed the next plan with them.
Above their heads, Xu Yuheng, who was floating in his soul state, listened to their conversation and couldn't help but admire the old man.
He didn't know if the old man really thought so or if he was just brainwashing his two subordinates, but his words were indeed very convincing.
For example …
"Brother Yu, is this really the case? Is it really the fault of His Majesty Roland? "A line of words appeared in front of his eyes.
Xu Yuheng turned his head and glanced at Bai Feng. This kid was frowning and seemed to be troubled.
Obviously, he was also fooled by the old man's words.
"Of course not."
Xu Yuheng opened the input box and replied, "Just one question, how can they guarantee that those aliens will treat the people of Roland well after they take over the Roland Empire?"
"Are those aliens really doing charity? Definitely not. "He continued.
"They can instigate these people to betray and use the lives of tens of millions of people in Orchid City as a bargaining chip. This is enough to see their nature."
"This is a group of cold-blooded guys. They don't care about the people of the Roland Empire at all. What they want is the resources of this planet."
Xu Yuheng analyzed, "With the current situation of Ai XueXue, it is probably difficult for them to obtain these resources effortlessly."
"Then in this case, do you think these aliens will choose to sacrifice their own people to deal with the interstellar beasts, or use the captives of the Roland Empire to replace them?"
"Do you think they will still accept the current relatively gentle method of clearing the roadblocks, or will they use more violent methods that don't care about casualties?"
Bai Feng wasn't stupid. He understood Xu Yuheng's words.
And aliens …
Using this word to describe them, he immediately became wary of the Beirut Planet.
He nodded, looked at Xu Yuheng's chat history again, and laughed as he typed:
"Brother Yu, you're using them so well. They're so smart."
Xu Yuheng saw his reply and couldn't help but roll his eyes. After that, he ignored him and continued to eavesdrop on the action plan of the three NPCs.
In fact, it wasn't really eavesdropping. They were just "lying dead" in this room, so it was hard not to hear.
Soon, they grasped the general information —
There weren't many traitors in Orchid City. The old man mentioned that there were about ten traitors. Of course, he didn't rule out the members he didn't know.
Three days later, when the border guards of Orchid City were at their weakest, they would attack the defensive formation of Orchid City and completely destroy it with bombs.
After the destruction, they would use the blood of the golden weasel to blend into the interstellar beasts and leave.
In these three days, in addition to preparing for them, it was also to completely leave Orchid City. After all, after the defensive formation was destroyed, Orchid City would become extremely dangerous.
These people cherished their lives very much, so they naturally didn't want to stay here for long.
Xu Yuheng recorded all the images so that he didn't miss any details.
And after the three people's conspiracy was over, they finally remembered his and Bai Feng's bodies.
"What should we do with them?" Bei Na asked.
Elder Bryce waved his hand and said without much care, "Lawrence, drag them out of town and find a place to bury them. Make it clean, don't alert the enemy."
Black Cloak nodded. At this time, Bei Na said, "Elder Bryce, have you heard about … the Hero?"
Elder Bryce nodded.
"It seems to be from the central town." He sneered, "Do you believe in the legend of the Hero?"
Bei Na hurriedly waved her hand, "I saw the video from the town, they … are very weak."
"Then it's settled."
Elder Bryce said coldly, "They're just a bunch of clowns, who knows if they're scammers in disguise?"
"Even if it's true, it has nothing to do with us."
"Instead of believing in a group of people who popped out of nowhere, it's better to believe in the powerful Bevat Empire. After all, King Arnold has been helping us."
Bei Na didn't say anything more, and Black Cloak turned into a shadow again, crawling on the ground and devouring Xu Yuheng's bodies.
The shadow became a lot bigger, and its movement speed slowed down.
It moved silently in the town. Fighter Dark Elementalists were the kings of the night, so it was difficult for anyone to discover them.
Finally, they arrived outside the town, and Black Cloak appeared again. Looking at the two bodies on the ground, he didn't do it himself. Instead, he found a cliff and threw them down.
After all, this place would be occupied by Galactic Beasts in three days, so he was too lazy to dirty his hands.
After he left, some movement came from the bottom of the cliff after an unknown amount of time.
"Damn, this guy is too cruel!" The young man cursed in a low voice.
At the bottom of the cliff, Xu Yuheng sat on the ground, and Bai Feng looked up at the cliff, cursing.
Half an hour had passed since they died, so they chose to resurrect on the spot.
If they chose to resurrect nearby, they would most likely resurrect in the central town, which meant that all their previous efforts would be in vain.
Xu Yuheng didn't pay attention to Bai Feng, but pulled up the video just now to look at it carefully.
After they resurrected, they didn't receive a quest notification, but this wasn't the point, and he didn't care much about the quest reward.
This matter was related to his brother, so Xu Yuheng couldn't help but take it seriously. No matter what, he couldn't let their scheme succeed, or else Xiao Li's situation would become very dangerous.
In the game, NPCs were dead and couldn't be resurrected. He knew this, and even Wang Lao couldn't do anything about it.
If the little emperor in the imperial city was really his Xiao Li, then he only had one life!
He would still die.
This knowledge made Xu Yuheng panic.
He couldn't accept his brother dying a second time, and he had to protect him. He wouldn't allow anyone to take away his brother's life!
Therefore, this crisis had to be solved.
But he didn't have much time left. In three days, how could he find the superior NPCs at the border and make them believe his words?
This video was recorded using the game's function, so it couldn't be shown to them.
Moreover, if they alerted the enemy this time and escaped, who knew when they would make their next move? How could they guard against thieves for a thousand days?
Therefore, the best way was to catch them all in one fell swoop when they made their move!
But Xu Yuheng didn't have a clue as to what to do.
After editing this video, he opened the forum and posted a post — —
Two heads were better than one. He believed in the wisdom of the players. Perhaps he could get some inspiration from the forums.
While Xu Yuheng was worrying about how to make the officials believe him — —
Roland Imperial Palace.
Xu Sili woke up early in the morning and received the surveillance video from Xiao Wu.
These days, he had completely turned into a salted fish.
He ate and drank every day, didn't want to sleep at night, didn't want to wake up in the morning, and even if he woke up, he would dive into the music studio and ignore the outside world. He only focused on the music he liked.
Reality proved that even without him, the empire was still operating at a fixed speed.
He even leveled up and officially broke through Level 20, reaching the two-star level.
Then, he was stuck at the level.
His experience bar stopped moving, and all the experience gained was accumulated. He could only continue to level up when the imperial city level reached Level 3.
However, he reached the two-star level in two months. According to the current standards of the Roland Empire, he was already considered a genius, so there was nothing to be sad about.
It didn't matter if he slowed down a bit, he had to give others a way out, right?
So Xu Sili gave himself a break with a clear conscience, and didn't specify when it would end.
He thought that he could rest for two or three months, but he never thought that he would receive such a message in just a few days.
Blowing up the protective array of Orchid City? Do you know how many people will die? These people are crazy!
Xu Sili's first reaction was to explode. After being the emperor for a while, he was used to thinking from the perspective of the people.
But he sneered at the old man's slander.
It was stupid and poisonous!
He immediately ended his break and called Si Sheng, Wen Jishan, and the others for a meeting.
Orchid City was too far away, and he didn't know the situation there, so it was better to leave it to the professionals to come up with a plan.
The main problem now was time.
There were less than three days left, and it was difficult to effectively dispatch from a long distance, not to mention that the military should have been infiltrated.
That one-star Dark Elementalist … must be in the military!
Thinking of this, Xu Sili couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Cha Mo couldn't use space transmission for a while, or else he could have let Si Sheng go. With Si Sheng as a killing machine, why would he be afraid of these people rebelling?
But fortunately, he had Xiao Wu and the players!
With the accurate information provided by Xiao Wu, and the dozens of players who followed the escort team to Orchid City —
They, who had reached LV10 and above, finally had the power to fight.
Although their HP was still low, with the help of the Elementalist skills, as long as they cooperated well, it shouldn't be a problem to catch those traitors.
Before Wen Jishan and the others arrived, Xu Sili brought up the mission panel and began to edit the elite mission.
After all, it was his second brother who found the important information, so he secretly gave him enough benefits. At the same time, he ordered Xiao Wu to provide all the convenience for Xu Yuheng.
If he encountered any difficulties, it had to do its best to help.
The little robot responded in a cute voice and continued to work.
It looked very energetic. During this period of supervising the Roland Empire, it didn't learn any bad things. Instead, it happily worked for Xu Sili every day.
Although Xu Sili felt a little bad, seeing that its intelligence level was increasing very quickly, he felt that the benefits outweighed the disadvantages, so in the end, he let it be.
And now, the power of artificial intelligence was on display.
If it wasn't for Xiao Wu, he was afraid that he would still be in the dark.
Xu Yuheng, who was far away in Orchid City, had just left the bottom of the cliff with Bai Feng when he received a mission notification from the system.
The triggering mechanism of this mission was really casual … He casually complained and accepted the mission.
The reward of the mission was free to take.
Last night, Xu Yuheng almost didn't rest for the whole night. He only took a short nap in the wee hours of the morning. After finally finding some inspiration in the information given to him by the game team, he entered the game again.
The post he posted on the forum received a lot of responses.
The main city defense battle, no matter how one looked at it, made people's blood boil, and it was also related to the vital interests of the players —
If the city was breached, the players in Orchid City would lose their spawn point, and other players would also lose a map that they hadn't set foot on.
This would be a huge loss, and no one wanted to see it.
What's more, that old NPC looked down on them!
Even if the uncle couldn't bear it, the aunt couldn't.
The crowd was furious, but many people found that except for the Imperial City escort team that was about to arrive, there were only two or three players at the border.
So …
Their Orchid City defense mission was to let the Imperial City players pick the fruits of their labor? Why were they taking all the good things?
Later, the post went astray, and it became a catfight.
Xu Yuheng had a headache, so he closed the forum and quit the game. In fact, he didn't want to rely on the players of the escort team because he wasn't sure if they could arrive in time.
So, the players in Orchid City had to be used.
The key problem was, how to get them to the border in a short time?
After a night of research, Xu Yuheng found a way. He went to the branch of the Mercenary Association in Orchid City and found the robot in charge of registration.
On this side, Xu Sili and Wen Jishan had just finished their meeting when they received a message from Xiao Wu.
"Brother, this brave man named Xu Yuheng is applying to set up a mercenary group, but they only have two people. According to the rules, they don't meet the requirements."
"Do you want to make an exception and approve the application?"
The minimum number of people to set up a mercenary group was 50, so two people were naturally far from enough.
Xu Sili pursed his lips.
What did Second Brother want to do?
He didn't understand, but he still agreed.
"Okay, big brother," the little robot answered cutely.
"Reporting, Brother, their application has been approved."
"The information has been entered, and the Yu Siqing mercenary group is officially established. The communication devices of the leader and group members are automatically connected to the mercenary platform, and they can check their registration information through the mercenary system."
Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Xu Sili was suddenly stunned.
Yu Siqing …
He muttered the name of the mercenary group and couldn't help but curl his lips, but his eyes quickly turned red.
When Si Sheng walked in, he saw this scene.
