Hu Die Lan
Chapter 745 A Useless Wall of Priests
Truly a god! He opens his mouth and it's a grand gesture, an impossible task. Counting Thousand Miles Drunk, six damage dealers, and then eighty priests, what kind of lineup is this? This is a lineup trying to build a Great Wall with flesh and blood. Those who can find work in a studio, regardless of the quality of their equipment or their level, are rarely game novices. At this point, just looking at this setup, they basically understand what's going on. The eighty priests were in tears. This task requires them to be meat shields, accepting the baptism of all the Cloud City players!
"So, does everyone have confidence?" Gu Fei asked.
"No!" The voice was loud and uniform.
"Whether you have it or not, you have to have it. The money has already been paid." Gu Fei had a good impression of Ling Gu Feng, so he chose to trust his character. In addition to the so-called buyout fee, other payments were settled directly in one go. This straightforward move left Ling Gu Feng with an excellent impression of Gu Fei. So, he didn't continue to dwell on the buyout fee, and he also stepped forward to speak for Gu Fei, "There are only four NPCs left in the Northeast Camp. Everyone should do their best to support them. This matter isn't as difficult as everyone thinks."
Not difficult may be true, but thinking that this is a mission to be wantonly ravaged, everyone is still very pained. Someone suggested, "Drunk Bro, why don't you hire more people? We can attack and defend, which is more efficient than having the priests hold out like this?"
Gu Fei patted his pocket. "No money."
Ling Gu Feng immediately became nervous and sent Gu Fei a message: "No money? What about the compensation..."
"So easy to fool, and you're from a studio?" Gu Fei despised him.
"Pretend I didn't say anything. But his suggestion is really good. Team up with professional coordination, combining offense and defense, it's definitely more efficient than your current method," Ling Gu Feng said.
Gu Fei shook his head. "First, I can't command a team. Second, there are tens of thousands of players attacking the city. If I rely on combat support, how many people would I have to hire? Third, let's hurry up, I don't want to wait any longer."
"Okay, okay, you're busy. Just tell me if you need anything. This is the list of these hired people. We'll each take a copy. I'll mark those who have withdrawn from the city battle 25 times, and we'll check after the battle."
"Will anyone deliberately die to earn money?" Gu Fei asked.
"You're joking. Those who can work in our Yunteng Studio must abide by our employee code of conduct. We have a mutual supervision and reporting mechanism, and we absolutely don't allow this kind of customer fraud. Especially for your large-scale activities, we will also send someone to supervise on the sidelines. You can rest assured. Everyone understands what's going on with your mission, and they will definitely cooperate with you to complete it. I guarantee that even if we fail, it must be due to our subjective reasons," Ling Gu Feng said.
"Oh, that's good." Gu Fei nodded, and then asked, "What studio are you from again?"
Ling Gu Feng collapsed. After all this time, he didn't even know what studio he was from. His image work wasn't done well. He quickly handed Gu Fei a business card. Gu Fei took it and read, "Ling Gu Feng, Human Resources Assistant, Yunteng Studio."
"That's me," Ling Gu Feng said.
"Human Resources sells scrolls?" Gu Fei asked.
"The division of labor isn't that detailed. Since you contacted me, I'll just run errands!" Ling Gu Feng said.
"And promote your human resources business on the side?" Gu Fei asked.
"Hehe." Ling Gu Feng chuckled dryly.
"What's the relationship between Yingqi Studio and you?" Gu Fei asked while putting away the business card.
"They're our grandsons," Ling Gu Feng said seriously.
Gu Fei's goodwill immediately increased, and he patted Ling Gu Feng on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Good, good, I'll look for you for business in the future." Gu Fei really had a good impression of this kid, and he only hoped that it was wrong that all crows were black, and that this kid wasn't as scheming as Five Nights. If not, dealing with the studio would be really convenient and fast.
"Let's go!!" Gu Fei called out to the team. He had no leadership, and couldn't even be the captain. The team was built by others, but everyone was still very clear about who was in charge of this team.
"Everyone's here?" This time, it was the five damage dealers next to Gu Fei who were surprised.
"Everyone's here," Gu Fei said.
"What about the warriors?" one person asked.
"What do you need warriors for?" Gu Fei was puzzled.
"Who's going to tank the monster attacks without warriors?" The five people said almost in unison, except for slight differences in wording.
Gu Fei pointed to himself.
"You?" The five people were very uniform this time, and then looked at each other. Although there were a lot of priests, could the mage's small body withstand a soldier's blade? If he was directly killed in seconds, even eight thousand priests wouldn't be enough! Although the five people also knew that the soldiers' attacks weren't that high, they hadn't forgotten that there were a total of four guards in the camp.
Just as the five people wanted to ask more clearly, Gu Fei had already strode ahead of the team. The eighty priests often didn't bother to worry about this matter, and silently followed and set off. The five people hesitated, chased after them, and finally asked this question.
"You'll know when the time comes." Gu Fei waved his hand, too lazy to explain.
The Northeast Camp was just ahead. Gu Fei had already told everyone to act separately, and gathering eighty priests was really too conspicuous.
"Do you think there's anything wrong with the tactics I mentioned? I'm not very good at this aspect." Gu Fei was engaging in democracy within the team.
"You're really not good at it. We need a tank, we need a tank!!" The group of five damage dealers shouted.
"And why don't you hire a few more damage dealers! The more, the more efficient!" There were other voices.
"You're so long-winded! Fine, I'll tell you! I understand what you mean by a tank, isn't it the one who attracts monster aggro? I heard that warrior jobs can generate a lot of aggro, one is by attacking damage, and the other is by releasing rage, which can all be converted into aggro, right?" Gu Fei said.
"Yes, otherwise, warriors may not be able to stabilize aggro by relying on damage alone. The main thing is that their rage consumption is an extra aggro creation," someone answered.
"Well, the setting doesn't matter, the key is that as long as I attack, warriors will definitely not be able to pull any aggro..." Gu Fei said.
The five people were stunned for a moment, but then they suddenly realized. Who is this person? Thousand Miles Drunk! A mage with instant kill skills, his attack damage is heaven-defying. The large amount of aggro generated by his era-transcending high damage output can't be taken away by warriors of this era relying on damage and releasing rage. So, with such a violent damage dealer, it's simply a dream for warriors to pull aggro.
"As for not having too many people participating in the battle, it's because I need enough space to move around. If there are too many people surrounding me, it will compress my space. If I don't have space, I can't dodge attacks, and I'll die. Do you understand now?" Gu Fei said.
"I understood the last one, but I don't quite understand this one."
"So, even if I tell you, you won't understand. You'll know when we fight. Is everyone in position?" Gu Fei had these players enter the camp first, after all, they wouldn't cause any alarm.
"Entered. Entered. Entered..." A series of messages in the channel.
"What's the distribution of the guards?" Gu Fei asked.
"The one at xxx, xxx is the closest to the edge of the camp, let's start with that one!" Someone told Gu Fei.
"Okay." Gu Fei adjusted his direction of advance based on the coordinates. Originally, players in the Northeast Camp were afraid of being abandoned, so they hoarded a lot of supplies. But later, they learned that all the city-defending players were suppressed in the city, so they didn't waste time here. They did what they should do. Except for some lazy people who actively applied to sneak off, the Northeast Camp was no different from other camps. It was just a base where players died, resurrected, respawned, and cycled repeatedly. When Gu Fei left the city, he noticed that this place had relaxed its vigilance, so he came up with this idea.
"I'm coming over, everyone get ready." Gu Fei said. The preparation he was talking about was wearing masks. This was an important way to get rid of players after the battle and prevent revenge.
"I'm coming in!" Gu Fei's last reminder. Without any city-attacking players noticing, he easily stepped into this already precarious camp.
There was a guarding NPC soldier extremely close in front of him. The moment Gu Fei stepped in, the guard immediately glared, roaring "There is a traitor sneaking into the camp," and rushed up fiercely.
"Hurry up!!!" Gu Fei also roared, rushing up without hesitation and giving a turning Double Flame Slash, firmly hitting the soldier. The group of five damage dealers had been waiting on the side for a long time. As soon as they saw Gu Fei make a move, two thieves sprinted behind the soldier and released Backstab, and three mages were also constantly casting fireballs in succession. Although there was a small amount of area damage, the damage wasn't great. With eighty priests surrounding them, it would be too unpromising to worry about this little bit of damage.
"What is the soldier's health?" The group of five damage dealers had of course not taken over this business, and they had not participated in the city battle, so they didn't know anything about it.
"Don't know." Gu Fei's answer was extremely blunt.
The five people vomited blood: "You don't even know how much health he has, how can you be sure that we can kill him in time?"
"That's why you need to hurry up even more! Pay attention, the other three soldiers will also come soon. Priests, don't block them, let them in, so they don't attack you." Gu Fei said.
"One against four? Can you do it?" The five people were surprised.
"That's why I said I need space, watch carefully! Thieves, you two need to keep up too." Gu Fei said as he continued to slash at the soldier, firmly controlling the rhythm and resolutely preventing his magic power from running out.
As Gu Fei said, the other three soldiers came to reinforce as quickly as possible, and the priests were extremely obedient, flying to give way to the fast soldiers. But at this time, the city-attacking players were even more anxious. The news that the resurrection camp was attacked again had spread quickly. The players in the Northeast Camp quickly picked up their weapons. Where was the target? Perhaps it was originally necessary to confirm it, but at this time, a circle squeezed by 80 masked priests made the target unmistakable.
"Here they come." The priests encouraged each other. They weren't rookies, they were used to being cared for and protected in the team, they had never stood on the front line like a warrior. They were inevitably a little nervous at the moment.
The attack arrived!
As soon as they saw the circle formed by the eighty priests, even the most timid players had the confidence to run wild. They rushed up, frantically using all the skills they could. The eighty priests gritted their teeth, supporting and healing each other. The holy white light shone into a circle, fighting against flames, arrows, lurking assassins, and charging warriors...
"Gu Feng, have your supervisor also monitor the actions of the city-attacking players and remind me if a large number of them return to the camp." Gu Fei also sent a message to Ling Gu Feng.
"I'm here myself... Eighty people, it's really a bit few!" Ling Gu Feng was also curious about whether Gu Fei could take this camp, so he secretly followed to watch the fun. The batch of players who suddenly launched an attack seemed to be unable to take down the death-resistant team of eighty priests for the time being, but when the number of players gathered again, and the attack was slightly mobilized and concentrated, Ling Gu Feng felt that it was effortless to destroy eighty people.
"Oh no, they can't hold on anymore!" The protective circle of the eighty priests was forcibly opened by a continuous charge from a group of warriors. The players knew that they were protecting something, so they opened it up and saw a group of people hunting down the camp guards, and several warriors shouted and rushed up to help.
"Get out of the way!" Gu Fei roared at the two thieves, took the guard and slipped two steps towards the warriors, turned around and used Double Flame Slash, the flames spun out, and three warriors were hit, two of them seriously injured.
The two seriously injured people were really not ambiguous, and they had the air of sacrificing themselves. They slashed out Whirlwind Slash together. Unexpectedly, Gu Fei was faster. Seeing that the blade was about to roll around him, he raised his finger and suddenly teleported away. The Whirlwind Slashes of the two warriors slashed onto the system guard behind Gu Fei together. The guard was already locked onto Gu Fei, and didn't transfer because of these two Whirlwind Slashes. He turned around and chased after Gu Fei again. The two warriors also quickly stopped their Whirlwind Slashes, and clumsily tried to chase, but the five damage dealers weren't there to be spectators. They attacked together and cleaned up the two warriors who were already dying.
Gu Fei pulled the guard over, and Double Flame Slash had cooled down. He used a circular motion to avoid the other three guards. He ran and positioned himself, and slapped the fourth guard on the forehead with a Palm Thunder. Gu Fei didn't want to knock the guard down at this time, so this palm jumped diagonally downwards in mid-air, and the guard fell to the ground with a thud. Gu Fei landed and shook his sword, ding ding dong dong, and stabbed again. The group of five also came up to continue helping. One of them shouted at Gu Fei: "You don't have to pull it like that all the time, we won't attack those few, the aggro won't leave, just focus on one."
"It's just convenient." Gu Fei smiled, and still did whatever was convenient. Ever since the three guards entered the circle, Gu Fei's attacks had taken care of everyone, and at first, the group of five damage dealers thought that Gu Fei was using group pulling methods. But with Gu Fei's damage, a few skills were enough to stabilize the aggro of those three soldiers, and then everyone could focus their firepower on dealing with one. But Gu Fei didn't do this. His attacks always took care of all four guards. And the five people had also seen Gu Fei's positioning, which was really erratic. It was clear that he was going to step to the left, but somehow his body swayed to the right. So the two thieves suffered, and the target was led by Gu Fei one step east and one step west, and the two of them couldn't keep up at all.
"What are you two doing? You have four soldiers, why do you have to pick this one to kill?" As a result, the two were criticized by Gu Fei. The two were stunned, was there anything wrong with focusing the output and killing one first? To want to take down all four at the same time, was this heart too deep?
"You three too! Why do you always bomb one?" Gu Fei shouted at the three mages again.
The three mages fainted, and they were too lazy to argue with Gu Fei's novice thinking. The boss ordered, so let's just do as he says! Otherwise, if the mission fails, it would be troublesome for him to say that people didn't listen to orders.
The three mages also began to distribute their attacks evenly, and Gu Fei expressed his satisfaction, but the priests couldn't hold on at this time. The city-attacking players no longer blindly bullied them because the other party was a priest. As the number of people gathered, they also began to gather firepower to break through. The priests finally realized that their wall of eighty people was simply not enough to see in the enemy's lair. When the firepower gathered, it was directly a kill. Eighty people? What about eight hundred or eight thousand? What was needed at this time was not the amount of healing, but the upper limit of life.
"Boss...I think you're in trouble..." Ling Gu Feng could see the situation very clearly as a bystander. Psychologically, he was a little biased towards Gu Fei, but at the moment, it was completely a look of general defeat.
"There's still a little bit of time left, can you kill one? Killing one is one, and then come back again, and you'll kill them all after four times." Ling Gu Feng was already thinking about the aftermath.
At this time, the priests were also crumbling, and many people on the outer circle had been harvested. Respawning was in this camp, but it wasn't possible to be in the same place. The randomly resurrected priests, with their masks on, were simply the target of public criticism. It was impossible to return to the position to pretend to be the Great Wall. The priests felt that Gu Fei's plan was really childish, ridiculously childish. Eighty priests were simply not enough to build a defense. It seemed that this person was good at soloing, but was simply a pig in team battles.
Or perhaps he just wanted to buy some time, kill one and be done with it, and then come back again. Originally, some people would have thought this way, but when they looked back at the circle, they were all very disappointed.
Pig! He was too pig-headed. He didn't focus his output, and actually wanted to kill all four soldiers at once... Dreams were beautiful, but reality was cruel. Eighty priests simply couldn't give that much support. Except for the gap when the other players gathered, the priests were tenacious for a while, when the number of opponents gathered in the hundreds or thousands, there was simply no way to survive.
"Okay, it's over..." Looking at the dense crowd in front of them, the priests were all thinking in their hearts, and Ling Gu Feng stretched his neck, wanting to know if Gu Fei had killed one.
"Take off your masks, let's scatter!" Gu Fei suddenly said.
"Give up?" Everyone thought in their hearts, but no one dared to ask. The boss was probably not in a good mood at this time.
However, taking off the masks didn't mean that people wouldn't treat you as an enemy. At least, you had to die once. Everyone took off their masks and covered their faces, waiting to die before revealing their faces, so that no one would dare to casually confirm that you were the enemy, and the chances of escape would greatly increase.
Firelight, arrows, whirlwind slashes, assassinations...
Various attacks came like a tide, and the priests had given up resisting, and were instantly cleaned up. But in the open space where the priests were eliminated, everyone saw that there were four system guards, and they accepted the surplus of firelight, arrows, whirlwind slashes, assassinations...
"I'm so, stop, everyone stop!!!!" Someone in the city-attacking players shouted anxiously.
Whirlwind slashes could stop, assassinations could stop, but arrows and spells were attacks that couldn't be stopped. Thousands of city-attacking players completely dedicated their surplus attacks to the four poor system guards.
