The 26 guild leaders were all standing in the best viewing position in front of the clock tower. They had seen the entire process in detail, but they were all tongue-tied, unable to speak for a long time. It wasn't until the dust had completely settled that the Priests standing a little further in front of their guild leaders turned around and stared blankly at them. Only then did the guild leaders regain their senses.
"F * ck, what happened?" A guild leader was the first to shout. He had already received the news that the Warrior he sent out was dead! This guild leader didn't hide anything. The Warrior he sent out was their guild's top tank. He was known to never know what "instant kill" was, but in the end, he was buried under a pile of rubble. It seemed like he had been instantly killed.
"Was it done by someone or something?" A guild leader was still confused!
"Of course! It must be those guys' doing, "someone said.
"Does being stoned to death count as PK points?"
"F * ck, I've never tried it before …"
The guild leaders had a good viewing angle, so they could see everything clearly. However, it wasn't just the 26 of them who were discussing this. Those who saw and heard were all discussing it. The area around the clock tower was buzzing. Not long after, there were rumors that the clock tower was going to collapse and everyone in the plaza was going to be buried, making everyone anxious.
The guild leaders were busy comforting the crowd in the chat, telling everyone that their brothers who went in to check were ambushed by the enemy. At the same time, they were urgently discussing the situation.
"He's dead, and the tower is blocked. Their people might be up there, but we can't go up."
"How many people can this clock tower hold?" Someone looked up.
The clock tower of Cloud City was extremely tall. It was said that standing at the top was like standing in the clouds. Of course, this was an exaggeration. It was just that the height of the clock tower made people feel exceptionally close to the clouds. Although the game was a fantasy, it wasn't easy to build a clock tower that pierced through the clouds in a normal city.
After gauging the height, the guild leaders all felt that this clock tower was really tall. It was so tall that they couldn't tell how many people it could hold.
"Let's go take a look at those rocks," a guild leader suggested.
"Could it be a trap?" Someone continued to look up. Along the way up the clock tower, there were many openings. It seemed that one could casually throw a rock like this out. If one were to really throw it out … The man looked back at the crowd around him and shuddered. That would really be a tragedy!
"It's better to be careful …" Thinking back to the four brothers who had been buried alive, in terms of survivability and defense, they wouldn't be any weaker in this parallel world. Yet, they all ended up like this. Wouldn't those weak mages, bandits, and the like die with a single hit?
"These fellows, don't tell me they want to defend this place and drag it out with us?" Suddenly, the Guild Leader realized something.
"Damn, that seems a little troublesome!" The president walked around the clock tower. There was indeed only one entrance, and the lowest window was more than ten meters high. Without tools, it was impossible to climb up. Even if there were tools, the window was easier to guard than the door. You could climb up with a ladder and have someone push it.
"In any case, send someone to get some tools first. Everyone else, continue to observe," the guild leaders decided after a discussion. However, they weren't familiar with Cloud City. If they wanted to climb up the clock tower from the window, they would have to use large tools like ladders. These things couldn't be stored in a pocket or mailbox, so they could only solve it on the spot. Thus, some of them went to ask if there were any workshops in Cloud City that could do this, while others went outside the city to prepare their own ladders.
The people from the 26 guilds gathered here, filling up the plaza and streets of this place. Even if the players of Cloud City wanted to watch the show, they couldn't squeeze in. The bosses of the studios who came from afar to watch the show were also in a tragedy. They couldn't even get close to the clock tower. They were all walking around outside, completely unaware of what was happening inside.
"Guild leader, I'll go take a look!"
Just as the guild leaders were hesitating about what to do next, quite a few people from the various guilds volunteered to take up the task. These were the more impatient fellows. They had been waiting outside the city, but now that they had entered the city, they were waiting again. They were so impatient that they decided to muster up their courage and go take a look.
The guild leaders only felt that it was dangerous, so they were too embarrassed to give this order. Of course, it couldn't be better if there were people volunteering. They immediately agreed. Then, when they went back, everyone agreed. Suddenly, dozens of people squeezed out from the various guilds.
"Not so many. If there are so many of us going up, one stone will smash a whole group to death. It's best if there are only a few of us going up. At least there will be a place to hide, right?" a guild leader hurriedly said.
Everyone agreed, so this time, they didn't choose strong people, only fast ones. Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. The tower was completely blocked, and the window above was so high up. Even an anti-stealth skill wouldn't be able to cover such a large area. He could just use a Thief to sneak in and study it. What was there to worry about?
Thus, this time, they finally chose four Thieves. They immediately went into Stealth and quietly touched the entrance that was buried by the stone. They looked left and right, nodded in unison, and reported back: "It's a stone!"
"Nonsense, it can't be a hidden weapon!" a guild leader rolled his eyes.
"Touch it?" The four brothers discussed among themselves.
"Touch it!" one of them said firmly.
Touching it was dangerous, because if they touched it, they would be exposed. After the four Thieves reported this fearless action to their leader, the leader took it very seriously. He hurriedly mobilized the archers and other long-range attackers, pointing at the three upper windows at the entrance. "Keep a close eye on it. If there's any movement, immediately attack!"
"Understood!!" The attackers were ready to attack.
After the four Thieves received the order to start looting, the team counted one, two, three, and stretched out their hands.
As soon as their hands touched the stone, the Thief's figure immediately appeared. Some of the long-range attackers couldn't hold back anymore, regardless of whether there was any movement at the window or not, and immediately opened fire. When someone started, the others immediately thought that their eyesight was bad and they didn't see anything, so they hurriedly followed. In an instant, arrows flew like rain, and flames soared into the sky. The attacks were like a rainbow, directly crossing over the three windows. Everyone was instantly confused. They couldn't see what was happening at the window because the attacks were too dense, and completely blocked.
At this time, the four Thieves had also safely touched the stone. They tried to move it, but the stone was stuck too tightly, and the four of them could only shake it a little. While the four of them were busy, they were also paying attention to the sky above them. In just a second, they saw many arrows hit the frame of the window and fell down. Along with the arrows were sparks and sparks from the collision of the Magi's fire magic. There were also sporadic ice shards and lightning sparks. It was a unique skill of some Magi.
Where would they fall? Weren't they the four brothers? The four saw that the attack was so fierce, and if they didn't run, they would be buried by the arrows. They immediately hugged their heads and ran back. The arrows fell, and indeed, in an instant, the pile of stones was covered with a layer of stone. The guild leaders looked at each other, feeling that this was a bit too much.
The guild leaders all shouted in the guild channel to stop, and the attacks gradually stopped. The group of archers really didn't save their arrows at all, and there was a pile of arrows at the bottom of the clock tower.
"What's the situation?" The guild leaders were now interrogating the four Thieves.
"Nothing much, just ordinary stones. They're piled up there now, and it might take some effort to move them away." The Thief explained.
"It's not a big deal to move them away, but the key is, will the people inside continue to throw them down after we move them away?" The second Thief said.
"How many of these stones can be placed in this clock tower?" The third Thief said.
Everyone looked up at the same time. This question seemed to be a bit similar to the previous question, but the people were replaced with stones. The clock tower was so tall, so tall, no matter how many people or stones it could hold, it couldn't be estimated! Everyone thought in their hearts.
Just as they were discussing the next step, someone suddenly shouted, "There's someone!" The guild leaders didn't have time to look up at this legendary "person" before they saw the Rainbow Bridge being built together again. But this time, it was even more explosive than the last time. Last time, at least many windows were attacked, but this time, it was concentrated in one place …
"Then the window will be blocked …" Anyone who saw this scene would inevitably have such a thought.
Looking at the long and thick long-range attack that everyone had gathered together, the guild leaders could not help but shed silent tears. How was this an attack? This was clearly adding to the blockage! Look at the falling arrows, the stones had buried the entrance of the clock tower, and now the arrows were going to bury the pile of stones.
The guild leaders shouted again, and in the end, they repeatedly warned: Fire only when you hear the order, don't be so proactive.
The attack stopped again, and the window was silent. The legendary "person" still hadn't been seen, and they didn't know if he was dead or not. But from the situation reported by the guild leaders, it was obvious that he wasn't, because no one had PK points.
Don't attack without orders! This order was repeated by all the guild leaders. They wanted to see what the other party was going to do! The guild leaders had already found the brother who shouted "there's someone" just now to confirm that he wasn't seeing things, and that someone had really appeared at the window just now.
"It's here again!" With a shout, everyone looked up and saw a figure appear at a certain window. Compared to the last time, the window had changed again. The guild leaders reminded again in the channel, "Don't fire first", while thinking to themselves: Is this a f * cking game of whack-a-mole or what? There's even a change in the hole?
The windows of the clock tower were all made of stone, and there were no windows. This person stepped on the windowsill, drilled half of his body out, and looked around from above. His hand reached out from behind, grabbed something, and brought it in front of him. The people below the clock tower were all shocked, thinking that it was some kind of lethal weapon. The archers' hands twitched, and they almost released another arrow.
At this time, it was clear that he was worthy of being a guild leader. After all, he was calmer than the average person, and they didn't even bother to see what the guy took out. That thing was just a paper trumpet, but it was a little exaggerated. At this time, the person brought the paper trumpet to his mouth as if there was no one else around, and shouted to the people below the clock tower, "All of you, quiet down and listen to me."
It was just a paper trumpet. It could produce sound, but it couldn't be amplified. Compared to the noise made by more than 20,000 people, it was weak, too weak. But it was still the guild leaders. When they saw the person take out this thing, they knew that he was about to speak, and they hurriedly got everyone to quiet down.
