493 Balance and Reversal
With the advanced clergy leading the way, the players' courage seemed to have come back in an instant and climbed up the towering city wall again. The fastest ones are naturally the players in the category of Wanderer professions, followed by melee professions such as Rangers, Druids, Warriors, Warriors, and Bertsmen.
The riding professions of knights, heavy armored armored professions, and spellcaster professions, so of course you don’t have to consider it. The former is OK for charges, but it’s too difficult for them to make them climb walls. And spellcasters have never been a type of profession that charges first.
Therefore, those who climbed the city wall in a short time were basically leather or cloth armored professions. They quickly occupied the southern wall of Black City and began to place claw hooks and slings on the city wall. Although there was a soil bridge, these more physically intensive climbing tools were not used at all. However, after the players fixed the claw hooks and slings, they tied the rope to their waists as soon as possible...
Safety first, prevention first!
They were scared by the outcome of the first wave of siege teams. Even with the escort of high-level professionals, they were somewhat terrified, so it would be better to be safer.
Since the earth bridge only covers the middle section of the southern city wall of Heicheng, and the other three walls do not have high-level escorts and no safe climbing tools like the earth bridge, members of the other three sides of the anti-black alliance began to move south.
They didn't want to surround Black City and kill all the monsters inside. They only wanted the territory of Black City, so there was no need to surround it so tightly. If the monsters in Black City were scared away, that would be the best. They would save them from fighting the monsters and if the monsters would run away.
What's more, it is observed that the monsters in Black City are mainly golden skeletons, which are about three meters tall and golden skeletons with a height of about three meters. Due to the increase in the level of players, ordinary golden skeletons with an average level 1 level 80 can no longer pose a fatal threat to players. Players are not worried about the threat of skeletons, but are worried about the terrible force field cover.
Perhaps the players' tactics have taken effect. They gave up the three walls and focused on attacking one wall. In addition, there are advanced professionals in charge. This time, when more and more players climbed the city wall, the purple-gold force field cover has not been activated for a long time. I don’t know if it is because I think it is not cost-effective to only attack one wall to consume huge amounts of energy, or the energy itself is insufficient. The impact just now has exhausted the energy of the black city force field cover.
In short, the players successfully occupied the first city wall. The high-level professionals of the Silver Flame Clan also gave up fighting alone, and adopted the "war assist mode" they were best at, assisting the players.
Although the clergy has not weak damage to dark evil creatures and undead creatures, their main professional function is not combat, but assist, rescue, healing and logistics, especially in the field of large-scale battles, where they can play a role. They even surpass the warriors who charge into battle.
The role of the three major profession systems is generally quite balanced. Although the population gap between the three major professions is very large, in the war mode, the legal profession is usually responsible for the output. The war profession is responsible for the end of the battle, while the clergy is responsible for the assistance and aftermath.
The Silver Flame Sect, a country that does not know how many jihad wars it will launch against neighboring countries (mainly Kannas) in a year, has long honed the most effective cooperation method on battlefields of all sizes.
No matter which profession system, the number of low-level professions is definitely more than that of high-level professions, and the number of rare high-level professions makes it difficult for them to play a decisive role in the battlefield. Therefore, in order to maximize the abilities of high-level professions on the battlefield, the [cooperation] mode has become the only choice.
Whether it is a law or a priest, even a high-level profession, the individual's energy and holy power are extremely limited, and recovery is a slow task. At the same time, the assistance and blessings that individuals can provide to the group are insignificant.
Therefore, in order to enable the advanced spells and magic mastered by advanced professions to take effect on soldiers as much as possible, in the battlefield mode, combat skills such as "mana sharing" and "holy power dedication" are very important.
In this "anti-black battle", because the members of the missionary group of the Silver Flame Church were relatively high, and they were too dissatisfied with their identities, so they could only choose the short ones among the eldest sons, and select some unlucky clergy with lower positions to participate in the battle.
Therefore, the number of high-level professionals on the scene was not too many. They only selected one [priest], led three [priests], three [sects], and three [sects] to lead the priests and priests to form a clergy team, and symbolically support them.
[Ma Note: Let me explain the priesthood ranks of the Silver Flame Sect. [priests], [priests], [sect orders], and [sect] are all priests of the [priests] level and are low-level priests in the Silver Flame Sect. If you have to describe their respective duties and positions, the following is:
Priest [priest]: the main person in charge of managing a parish, almost equivalent to the "county magistrate";
Priest [Second Priest]: the second in command who assists the priest in managing the diocese, almost equivalent to the "Second County Magistrate";
Sizhi [Second Priest]: If the "priest, priest" is the decision maker, then the "sizhi" is the executor, which is almost equivalent to the "country chief";
Siyuan [Auxiliary Sacrifice]: The lowest-level god "official", as shown in the name, the person who assists the "Sizhi" in implementing decisions is almost equivalent to the "deputy township chief";
Priest: Those who are truly responsible for managing the church in the sect, of course, there will be more senior priests who serve as managers in some important places, which is equivalent to the "village chief";
Pastor: The lowest-level clergyman who is specialized in working and running errands, is the staff who assist the priests in the church in management affairs, and is also the basic member of the church.
These low-level priests and lower-level priests form the basis of religion in "Endlessness", but these titles are only "posts" rather than "levels", so high rank does not necessarily mean high ranks, but high ranks are usually relatively high, but it is normal to have a 2nd level [priest] to manage 6th level [priest]. After all, not all priests are combat-type.
Further down there are believers, mainly referring to people who believe in a certain god but are not clergy. They are usually divided into two types of people, one is believer and the other is non-believers, and they are also divided into: crazy believers, pious believers, true believers, ordinary believers, shallow believers, general believers, and non-believers...
There is no charge for this paragraph, and the following is back to the main text.]
In large-scale battles, the established clergy groups usually have several clergy members with the highest rank to preside over the release of divine arts. Others are responsible for praying and gathering holy power to provide them to the advanced personnel who preside over the release of divine arts.
Since the combat state of this group [cooperation] is required to start the minimum level 6 or above, there are only a few people who can truly control the rhythm of the battle.
For example, now, although the clergy group sent by the Silver Flame Sect seems to be quite a lot of people, but in fact, there are only ten people in total, including the Silver Flame Priest in the group.
One of the Silver Flame Priests released the large-scale divine art [Pilgrimage Road], and together with the priests and priests who worked with him, exhausted their holy power and fell into a state of weakness. They were left behind to rest and prayed to restore their holy power.
In order to maintain their energy, the remaining two priests did not participate in the work of supporting divine arts. Instead, they stood with the priest, guarding against the opening of the Black City force field cover at any time. Only three priests and three priests were left, constantly pouring large-scale group versions of magic arts on the players, giving them the state of blessing.
Divine guidance, holy anti-aging techniques, gifts, blessing techniques, divine grace, holy weapon, pious shield, precise blessings, faith, steel protection, holy light shield... A large number of level 1 divine techniques are splashed on the players who climbed the city wall in the form of a group version, making everyone's body full of light and auras lingering, as holy as a celestial apostle.
And when a huge [Sanctuary Technique] unfolded, the light shield with a faint silver light was wrapped around the players on the city wall and firmly protected the crowd on the city wall, the players cheered again.
Successfully capturing the first city wall means that they can continue to use this method to capture the next city wall, break through layer by layer, and finally reach the core!
But did they really successfully capture Black City?
A long roar that tore through the sky came from the clouds, and huge black shadows tear open the clouds like lightning and pounced down!
"Ah! It's a griffin!"
"Oh, buy it! So many griffins!"
"And Dragon Eagle! It's the Griffon Legion and Dragon Eagle Legion in Will and Breeze County!!!"
"Are you here to help us?"
"The flying mount is so handsome! I want a flying mount too!"
"Go to die!"
The players looked up at the sudden appearance of the air cavalry, not understanding why the two major flying legions stationed at the Vinante River defense line appeared above the Black City.
"Stop your behavior by Tira! Otherwise, we will be regarded as Thiren's invasion of the land of My Andele by our Royal Knights and the Royal Griffon Knights! Do you want to start a war?"
A majestic voice came from the mouth of the Dragon Eagle Knight led in the air. The middle-aged Dragon Eagle Knight wearing a light armor tattooed with a symbol of Andele's royal dragon eagle totem, pushed up the facial armor covering his face and seriously scolded the Silver Flame Cultist on the Black City wall.
The priest who was in charge of the Silver Flame Sect led the group stood up and said with a solemn look on his face: "Dear Great Knight, have you not seen that this evil black city has been occupied by the filthy undead? Their abnormal behavior is obviously that a certain undead monarch has resurrected. If you let it go, it may breed a terrible natural disaster of the undead. Do you want to see the civilians in Andele suffer the disaster of being miserable to life? As children of Tira, we have the obligation and responsibility to clean up the filthy undead in the filthy world..."
The middle-aged Dragon Eagle Knight sneered, soothed the restless companion beneath him, and said mockingly amid the powerful flapping of his wings: "Oh? When did Serene become the Communist Party of all countries? Even the affairs of other countries dare to interfere in the management of other countries? Is it your Silver Flame Guardian ordered you to invade my land of Andele? Or is it your Bishops' Council of Parliament? Should I use your words as the declaration of Serene to launch a war against Andele?"
The Silver Flame Priest was speechless for a moment and said in anger: "Your Excellency, please do not misinterpret our kindness. Eliminating the undead is the duty of the Silver Flame believers in the world..."
"Eliminate Kannas first and then make a big spoil!"
The Great Knight interrupted the priest Silver Flame with ridiculous gaze and shouted: "The believers of Tira! Without the permission of my Queen Andel, you sent the sect to the territory of Andel without authorization. Now you are bewitching my people of Andel to gather people to cause trouble. Are you planning to subvert my Andel's royal power and completely trigger a war? Answer me! If so! Then I will wash away the dust on the national emblem of Andel, proving that I Andel is by no means a weak person who can be bullied!"
The Silver Flame Priest could only suppress his anger and said politely: "No, please do not misunderstand. We are just out of kindness and cannot bear to see God's people suffer unnecessary disasters..."
"oh?"
The Great Knight looked at the priest with fun, and pointed to the Star Mountains in the northeast with a smile: "If you insist on 'helping' to clear the undead, there is a group of 'evil creatures' entrenched in the mountains in the Star Valley. Why not ask you Silver Flame Cultists to 'clean'? Just leave the few small skeletons here to deal with... Or do you think I, Viscount Byron Ethol of the Great Knight, of the [Silver Dragon Eagle], cannot even solve these small skeletons? Then, in order to safeguard my honor, I will challenge you!"
The Silver Flame Priest’s face turned pale, Damn it! You, a 7th-level knight, and I, a 6th-level priest, aren’t it obvious that you bully people?
But although things are something that everyone knows, things can be done, but words cannot be said. In name, although their Silver Flame Order had obtained permission from the Grand Duke of Yador before entering Andele, everyone knows that Andele is still nominally in power now. If he said that the Grand Duke of Yador was approved by the Grand Duke, it would mean that he recognized that Serene had publicly supported the Grand Duke's coup, which was a subversion of the regimes of other countries. The Silver Flame Church, which claims to be just, naturally could not be willing to bear this stigma.
As for cleaning and purifying the filthy undead, it may be a slogan in Serene. Not to mention the undead of the Manchu Kingdom, even in Andele, the [necrotic] spellcaster is openly and legal.
Others, Andele doesn't think that the undead who builds the city here is evil. What's the matter with you Serene? How do you know that it's not a wizard nobleman who uses undead creatures to help build the city? This is a common thing in Andele.
Take a step back and say that even if the undead here is an evil monster, that is still Andele's business. It's up to you Serene's business? Is it too long to stretch your hands?
Therefore, no matter from that perspective, the Silver Flame Cultists who claim to be righteous and bright do not stand above morality. The Silver Flame Priest was suddenly forced into a dead corner by the Dragon Eagle Knight.
Everyone knows that Andel is in a crisis of coup and division. Everyone knows that the mission of the Silver Flame Sect sent Andel to secretly express support for the coup party, but no one can take this matter to the table.
"Take your believers right away from the territory of my Andele, otherwise your actions will be provoked by the royal family of my Andele!" The Great Knight of Dragon Eagle shouted.
The Silver Flame Priest was silent for a moment with a gloomy face. With a gloomy wave, the members of the clan unwilling to put away their magical skills and began to slowly gather together to retreat from the city wall. However, they did not disperse the earth bridge created by the divine art [Pilgrimage Road], nor did they take away the Silver Flame Cultists who were temporarily recruited by Andele outside the clan. They just hundreds of high-level clan members sent by the clan slowly left under the surveillance of the Dragon Eagle Knights in the air and slowly moved towards Ferhavan.
Strangely, the Dragon Eagle Knight and the Griffon Knight did not care about the players who were still stupid on the city wall and the Silver Flame believers of Andele. Even the Silver Flame players who came from Serene across the border ignored it and left directly. Perhaps the purpose of their sudden arrival was as they said, just to prevent the power of the Silver Flame Sect from being arrogant and abusing power in Andele.
The players should solve the problem of the players themselves. This seems to be the "unspoken rule" of the core consciousness master, or the small friction that does not affect the overall situation.
Who knows that this Black City Battle, which is mixed with various forces, is not the "fuse" laid by the indigenous forces of all parties and the reason for taking advantage of the problem?
Why did the Silver Flame Sect send an envoy to the sect, a [pope], two [patriarchs], four [guilds], and eight [bishops], but only a trivial low-level priest [priest] came to the scene?
They are testing, but unfortunately, testing failed!
The Silver Flame Cult is not only the attitude of the Queen Ander Party, but also testing the Kannas Undead Legion that is dormant in the Star Mountains, but the Kannas Undead Legion did not appear. In other words, this Black City is not Kannas's advance base?
Although he seemed to leave in a mess, in fact, the Silver Flame Cult has obtained the answer they want, and the Queen Party has also obtained the result of deterring foreign forces and showing the deterrence of force. Everyone went through the motions and left with satisfaction, leaving behind a large number of players who didn't know what to do.
"Oh my god!"
Sha Geluo looked at the leaving Silver Flame Cult in a daze, turned his head to look at Lanslayton: "What's going on? Are you leaving now?"
Lanslayton was also a little stunned, touched his chin and thought for a while, then hit his palm with a "sudden enlightenment" and said with a look of "Ah! I understand!": "It should be that we have brought high-level professionals to help attack the city, and violated the rules of the core consciousness master, so..."
"Fuck!"
Sha Geluo was anxious: "Damn, they left and we will attack Mao's city? They have climbed to death by climbing the walls, right?"
Lanslayton asked back: "Do you hope that the high-level professions of the Silver Flame Sect will help us, but there are two legions of Dragon Eagle and Griffon in the sky to encircle us, or do you hope that there is no Silver Flame Sect to help us, so we can find a way to attack the city slowly?"
Sha Geluo was speechless and had been struggling for a long time. When he thought of the flying dragon eagles and griffins in the sky, he felt ache and said dejectedly: "Let's think of a way ourselves!"
Lanslayton spread his hands and showed a look of "I'll tell me!". After all, this is Andele's home court. As a "foreign aid", the Silver Flame Sect is too arrogant and beware of being beaten up!
"But we don't have a chance!"
Lanslayton touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Didn't the Silver Flame Sect have already built a wall for us? Maybe it's the Black City, which is not yet time for us to take it down in one fell swoop? Are you expecting to take down the entire Black City at one time?"
Sha Geluo and the others were stunned and reacted, yes! The Yinyan Sect has left, but the earth bridge is still there! The first wall was also taken down by them, and the next thing they have "defended the city". The situation is so good?
"Why are you still standing there? Go down quickly! Occupy the first city!!!" Sha Geluo and the others immediately roared and woke up the stunned players.
Just as the players of the black league rushed to slide down the hook rope and "occupies" the first city area, a wanderer scout rushed over and screamed: "Boss! Skeletons! Many skeletons are coming!!!"
"What skeleton?" Sha Geluo and the others were shocked and looked up at the core of the Black City. They saw that the golden skeletons were still working diligently to build the city wall, without any movement.
"Outside! Outside!" The wanderer scout screamed: "On the west wall of Black City, a sea of skeletons has come from the direction of the Gray Bone Plain!"
"Fuck! No? They came as soon as the Silver Flame Sect left? Have you agreed?" The leaders of the anti-black alliance burst out in cold sweat, feeling like they had fallen into an evil trap...
"Don't panic! Take the time to enter the city! Those who have climbed the city wall will move along the city wall to the west. Now it's time for us to defend the city!"
Lanslayton yelled, although the high-level profession has left, don't forget that he has many clergy under his command. Do you have to deal with skeletons? The players present are at least dozens of times that of those skeletons. You are afraid of hair! What's there to be afraid of?
