Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 278
Chapter 278 The Player Was Cannon Fodder!
Hearing Xue Wuhen’s words, Xu You admired the unspeakable secrets. Letting beautiful female players be used as logistical support required courage and courage. After all, some female players were very powerful. If they didn’t go to the front, it would definitely affect the city protection. Besides, now that men and women were equal, gay men didn’t necessarily agree to such a method. Why didn’t female players go to the front?
But to Xu You, he had to thank the unspeakable secrets. Because Xue Wuhen, Qingwu, and the others didn’t have to go to the front line, it meant that they wouldn’t lose their level. Of course, this was a good thing. However, Xu You had promised to help him defend the city with the unspeakable secrets, but he had broken his promise. This was truly too sorry for others.
“Alright then. The calamity plot is ready to go. We’ll talk about it when I get back.” After Xu You spoke to Xue Wuhen, he temporarily stopped chatting, because there were still sporadic monsters of natural disasters running in from his side. Meanwhile, Daniu, who was beside him, also winked at him, as if he had something to tell him.
After ordering the knights to beat the monsters to death, Xu You came to Daniu and asked, “Senior Daniu, what’s the matter?”
“Let’s go out and take a look.” Daniu said.
“Out of the Fantasy Forest?”
“That’s right, the first wave of the Heavenly Calamity attack should be over by now.”
Hearing this, Xu You was stunned, “First wave? You mean this is just the first wave of the Calamity?”
“Of course, you don’t think that the Sky Calamity Legion’s attack will only send those low-level soldiers to their deaths, do you?” Daniel’s tone was very playful.
“This” Xu You really thought so, Although for more than five hours, The Sky Calamity Legion’s attackers were all ghouls, statue ghouls, skeletal warriors, mages, and other low-level weapons. The highest level was the fat monk. However, with such a large number of them and such a high level, the threat posed to the players guarding the city was very great. After guarding for nearly six hours, the test of the Sky Calamity storyline should be enough.
‘”Wuyou, you’re too naive. The leader of the Calamity, Lich King Solo, can’t just give up on his attack. The low-level soldiers in front are all cannon fodder. The real attack is still at the back. Let’s go. You’ll understand when we go out and take a look.” Daniu shook his head and said.
Xu You was speechless. He just silently followed Daniu out. Judging from the current situation, the Sky Calamity Cannon Fodder Army had basically passed through the Fantasy Forest. There wouldn’t be a large number of Sky Calamity squads coming in. Therefore, they could rely on the group of knights and brothers who had basically leveled up to Level 40 to guard the cabin.
Xu You did not understand the path of the Fantasy Forest. He followed Daniu around the forest. When he was dazed, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. They walked out of the Fantasy Forest, and in front of them was the vast and flat sunrise plains.
However, after coming out, Xu You was shocked by the scene in front of him. It wasn’t because the Sunrise Plains had been ravaged by natural disasters, nor was it because the Calamity Cannon Fodder Legion had basically died, but because new monsters had appeared.
The Fantasy Forest is located south of the western Sunrise Plains, Therefore, the area outside the Fantasy Forest was the place where the endless Sky Calamity monsters had been sent to the Sunrise Plains. However, there were too many Sky Calamity monsters that blocked the portals. As time passed, the players thought that the portals had disappeared.
Now that the Calamity Cannon Fodder Legion is basically dead, The rest of the cannon fodder continued to squeeze towards City of Sunrise to the east, So the western part of the sunrise plains is completely empty, Xu You and Daniu, who had come out of the Fantasy Forest, could clearly see that the teleportation gates that they thought had disappeared did not disappear. Instead, they were walking out of the teleportation gates one after another. However, these monsters were no longer ghouls, skeletons, or the like. Instead, they were mage-like monsters wearing magic robes and hoods.
After these monsters walked out of the portal, they formed a circle of ten people. Then, they raised their hands together, as if they were summoning something.
“Are they … summoning monsters?” Xu You asked with a frown.
“It should be like this.” Daniu nodded his head and looked calmly at what was happening in his field of vision. He seemed to have already guessed that it would be like this.
“Senior, do you know what they are summoning?” Xu You wondered if Daniel knew anything.
“I don’t know, but it’s definitely more powerful than those monsters from before. Moreover, these priests can be summoned without dying.” Daniu shook his head and said.
“Priest? Uh, Senior Daniu, how did you know?” Xu You couldn’t help but ask.
“Because my grandfather died in the siege of Calamity a hundred years ago. At that time, the Calamity Legion did just that. They first sent out countless cannon fodder, and the elites guarding the city had used up almost all of their energy. Then they sent out powerful forces, such as the regional lord, the Frost Bone Dragon, the Wings of Death, and the Calamity Mage …” Daniu’s voice was calm and without a single ripple.
Hearing that, Xu You hurriedly apologized, “Senior, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have asked about this.”
“It doesn’t matter. Actually, I haven’t seen my grandfather. My father told me all of this.” Daniu smiled and said.
Hearing this, Xu You smiled awkwardly. Then, he turned his gaze to the front. Thousands of teleportation gates were constantly teleporting the sacrifices over, and the sacrifices were organizing groups to summon the bosses. If he allowed this situation to develop, wouldn’t he have to deal with a large number of powerful monsters?
So Xu You asked again, “Senior Daniu, what should we do? Aren’t we going to do anything?”
“The two of us can’t do anything. These priests are both Level 60 mages. There are still so many of them. Let’s wait for the people in the city to annihilate the cannon fodder legions before coming out to kill them.”
“But what if we migrants are unable to deal with these monsters summoned by the priests?” Xu You was very worried about this. Facing low-level ghouls and the like, players could use numbers to make up for their inadequacies. However, facing high-level Lord level and Boss level monsters, that was no good. Those monsters could kill a group of players in a single move. What was the use of having more players?
“Don’t worry. When the time comes, it will be the time for us aborigines to attack. Didn’t you notice that it was almost all your migrants who were defending?”
“Isn’t this normal?” Xu You replied subconsciously.
“Normal? Of course not. City of Sunrise is your main city, and it is also the main city of our aborigines. Why would we stand by and watch? “However, the cannon fodder legion of the Calamity is simply too large. The purpose of the cannon fodder legion is to consume our physical strength. Therefore, it would be best for you migrants who can be revived indefinitely to deal with them. In the future, the high-end combat power of the Calamity will be dealt with by our natives.”
“So our migrants are actually cannon fodder legions?” Xu You asked, and a few black lines appeared on his forehead.
“Uh, you can say that.” Daniu rubbed his nose and said embarrassedly.
“F*ck!” Xu You spat out a word, expressing his anger. It turned out that the NPC was also using players!
Previously, Xu You had heard from Daniel that Dick would help. However, after so long, Xu You had not received any news from his good friend that any powerful NPCs would come out to help. Xu You thought that the NPCs might see that the natural disaster would not be able to attack, so he gave up on helping. Since the migrants had all defended, what else would their NPCs do?
Moreover, when Emperor William summoned him a few days ago, he said that the NPC would also help. At that time, Xu You did not believe that this disaster scenario was a large-scale game and was designed for players to play. The NPC would not join in the fun.
But after the disaster, Only then did they realize that Emperor William wasn’t lying. The NPCs would help. The Stone Statue Ghosts in the sky were dealt with by the NPCs on the city walls at the beginning of the battle. Some of the NPCs were still dead, but the most powerful NPCs in City of Sunrise didn’t make a move. Could it be that they would not help until the first wave of monsters mentioned by Daniel had passed?
Thinking carefully, this was normal. Players could be revived indefinitely. Cannon fodder was the most suitable for dealing with natural disasters. As for high-level monster players who were powerful enough to deal with natural disasters, they would be dealt with by the elite NPCs in the city. They would work together.
“Then can your natives defeat those high-ranking weapons of the Calamity?” Xu You had to ask this question.
‘”Of course, we didn’t waste our energy on cannon fodder. How could we not defeat those high-level weapons? Our natives are very strong! Lich King Solo only won by numbers!” Big Bull said with disdain, and he spat out some gas from his nose to show his disdain.
“Then it shouldn’t be a problem for us migrants to follow you to battle, right?” Xu You’s eyes shone brightly.
“No problem. Wait for reinforcements to arrive later. Just follow me. I guarantee that you won’t die!” Daniu patted his chest and said heroically.
Hearing this, Xu You finally revealed a brilliant smile and said, “I understand, I understand.” Then he started sending messages …
