The answer was so simple! For a moment, Fleeting Blossom felt a mix of laughter and tears, once again realizing that she was not adept at leading troops in combat on the fly. Although she didnât know why the foreign players were retreating, opportunity knocks but once, so Fleeting Blossom immediately led all her remaining troops towards those two houses.
The Pirate Alliance players were completely baffled as they watched this Chinese player braving the rain of arrows to mobilize her troops, one after another.
Sometimes, in the eyes of professional players, what newbie players are thinking is something they could never guess.
However, Fleeting Blossom now had a breather and also formed a mutual watch over the situation with the Bell Tower. Although she lost more than 1000 troops, the key was that her main force of 100 Longbowmen was preservedâthey had a lot of health. What delighted Fleeting Blossom even more was that the doors of these two houses faced directly down a long street, with troops on the street completely within range of her Longbowmen!
"Old lady is going to shoot you all dead!" Since the start of the game, Fleeting Blossomâs long-suppressed grievances suddenly erupted, followed by a loud thud of the bow, and a round of arrows whistling out!
âLongbowman: Attack 14, Defense 6, Damage 4-17, Health 40, Attack Speed: 6, Move Speed 10, Command Value 3, Special Skills: Arrow Rain, Long-range Shooting.
Longbowmen, originating from England, made notable contributions against French heavy cavalry during the Hundred Yearsâ War, with a maximum range of up to 400 meters in high wind conditionsâequal to the effective range of modern rifles. In the era of cold weapons, having such an astonishing range was truly fearsome. Equally, the training of Longbowmen was extremely strict, requiring high standards for the bowâs material, the archerâs height, and arm strength.
Having fought for a hundred years, the national power of both Britain and France was severely weakened, causing them to fall far behind the emerging maritime nations of Spain and Portugal with the advent of the Age of Discovery. In the early days of the maritime era without large ships and cannons, Britain was heavily reliant on Longbowmen in naval battles.
In the game, this unit is positioned as a Level 4 special soldier of the Human Race. Compared to the Elf Clanâs Secret Archers, Longbowmen are much more straightforwardâlong range and strong power, donât even think about accuracy at longer distances. Thus, the Longbowmenâs regular tactic is Arrow Rain, compensating for lack of precision with a dense barrage of arrows. Likewise, Longbowmen also serve as quite impressive escort units on medium ships, exerting significant deterrent effects against pirates.
...
The sudden long-range Arrow Rain alarmed the Pirate Alliance. Was Da Fei directing this Chinese player on how to garrison? But werenât they just fighting each other a moment ago? Although they still didnât understand what exactly was going on between Da Fei and this Chinese player, the appearance of special soldiers made attacking the Bell Tower seem very difficult! Especially with a Ghost Dragon perched on the rooftop!
To attack or not to attack?
In a tournament setting, this wouldnât even be a question. But if it resulted in huge casualties to take it down, could they hold it? College students didnât believe in the reliability of this joint effort at all. Once the Chinese player was eliminated, what remained would undoubtedly be a free-for-all skirmish among countries, right?
While hesitating, the troops of two Indian players suddenly appeared in the rear of the battlefield. Just as expected! Indians wouldnât follow Japanese commands. And with two showing up, they definitely werenât just passing by; they must have had an agenda!
The members of the Pirate Alliance immediately started an urgent discussion.
"Emperor Avishenruo" Castro chuckled, "Friends, we probably canât easily take down this Bell Tower now. What should we do?"
"Flying Dutchman" Kluiv laughed, "Even if the Indian players hadnât appeared, we couldnât have easily taken it down, right? Whatâs the difference?"
"Invincible Fleet Philip II" Sebastian smiled faintly, "Thereâs still a big difference. After all, for us who aim to drift at sea, the territory could be temporarily irrelevant. So the Bell Tower Blueprints are also temporarily irrelevant, but the Indians are differentâthey have big ambitions."
"Emperor Avishenruo" Castro laughed, "I think this is a great opportunity!"
"Philip II" joked, "A great opportunity to disrupt the allianceâs order?"
"Dutchman" laughed heartily, "Exactly! Indians donât respect Japanese, their likelihood of disrupting this alliance order is huge; this saves us the trouble of causing the disturbance ourselves!"
"Sultan" also laughed heartily: "Very well! By challenging the Indians and forcing them to declare war, let the Indians bear the international responsibility for breaking the alliance!"
The friends laughed heartily: "Let the alliance go to hell!"
...
Ruins sewer.
With the treasure radarâs search, Da Feiâs quest for the BOSS yielded results again, this time itâs bats! Countless bats densely hanging upside down from the sewer ceiling! Indeed, such things are always found in sewers. Compared to cockroaches and rats, whatâs the difference? According to the usual game design, isnât it just an extra Bloodsucking Skill?
But thatâs provided you can get close enough!
âSystem Prompt: Your Vice Hero Serbia has unleashed the Master-level Light Magic "Storm Attack"!
The fierce storm once again wreaked havoc in the sewer, numerous bats were tossed about in the wind, smashing against the walls and squashing into a bloody mess!
Indeed, these were small creatures, unable to withstand a Grandmasterâs Divine Skill! Of course, itâs mainly because of the 100% chance of triggering the "Broken Wings" special skill that made the Storm Attack so effective. Otherwise, a normal Storm Attack wouldnât be this potent.
Da Fei couldnât help but marvel at the miraculous power of this Divine Artifact. That Angel Brother even solemnly swore that this Gold Coin is a curse and shouldnât be used next time. Well, isnât it being used just fine now? But thatâs only for now, to be honest, Iâm so badass, Iâm scared of myself!
Looking at the bats scattered all over the floor, Da Fei didnât let his guard down: Come on, it wonât be this simple, bring on your annoying diseases, Iâll take them all with a smile!
Just then, those bats that were still twitching on the ground suddenly rallied, converged in the air, a flash of blood, and a giant, wobbly bat appeared!
Da Feiâs eyelids twitched, there really was a trick up their sleeve! So this is the BOSS! A vampire, huh? But this BOSS seems to be in bad condition, Iâll strike while youâre down!
âBoom! Arrows, Magic Bullets, Flame Chains once again created a fiery barrage, and the giant bat that had just formed and hadnât had the chance to flap its wings exploded violently!
âSystem Prompt: Congratulations! You have defeated the Giant Bat Bloodsucker, you receive Heroâs Proof +1, and acquire the competition item "Blood-sucking Tooth".
âBlood-sucking Tooth: Using this, the entire armyâs Life Limit increases by 15%, and thereâs a certain chance that the troops will gain 20% Bloodsucking effect during an attack. Lasts for 1 day in-game. Competition items can only be used in the current competition.
âSystem Prompt: You have received competition prize money +150,000 Gold Coins, and competition reward "Life Book" +1. The competition rewards will be issued to your accountâs mailbox on the server after the competition ends.
Da Fei laughed heartily! Just as expected, a Divine Wand delivered! In front of me, any "certain chance" stuff, donât even mention it! Now I too can play a vampire! Iâve always wanted to ask Boss Ma how fun it is to play a Bloodsucking Orc, well, now itâs my turn to enjoy it!
But now, the troopsâ Stamina is nearly dropping below 50%, why hasnât that cockroach died yet? It couldnât have a self-healing ability, could it? No, canât fight anymore, thatâs enough, already have the Bloodsucking Skill, what kind of ultimate BOSS could even stop me? Letâs head back and get ready to take on the ultimate BOSS!
Meanwhile, at the other end of the sewer, Lee Min-ho, who was tracking, looking at the still unrefreshed pile of rat corpses felt a huge shock.
This tracking all the way, Da Feiâs footprints in the dark did not wander, steadily moving forward, quickly ending two battles, as if he knows the map, knows the strategy? Is this the level of an amateur player? No wonder those few who always put on airs begged me to come, this is a formidable enemy! I must defeat him with all my might! (To be continued.
