Originally thought that after the battle with Rebirth Beast, they could get the freedom they wanted, but now, a word from the NPC Legion Commander has led people to despair.
They will face even more brutal battles, mutual slaughter, and right under these city walls.
In an instant, the gaze and eyes of those around them were completely different. Everyone was aware of their current situation, and even companions couldn't be trusted absolutely now.
"Are we going to slaughter each other?"
The atmosphere on site became eerie, everyone was worried, and they didn't even dare to turn their backs on the players, because it felt unsafe.
"Back to back, now no one can be trusted." At this time, the only people who can be trusted are probably the partners who have come together all the way. Although they are unreliable, in a situation where no one knows anyone else, at least forming a team is the best choice.
As expected, each batch was divided into small teams. Soon, the 60,000 people formed their own small teams. Some teams had only a few members and looked somewhat awkward in the crowd, but this wasn't always the case. There were even those who didn't have any teammates at all, facing off against the 60,000 alone. These individuals were undoubtedly the most dangerous, but they also possessed the greatest strength.
The situation is immediately felt, and people's suspicions are undoubtedly accelerating the pace of destruction. To survive and enter the city, they must fight, and they will even face their former comrades-in-arms who fought alongside them just a moment ago.
"What are you waiting for? Only those who can survive have the qualification to enter the city. I will witness your battle with my own eyes, no one can escape my gaze. In this world, only the strong can survive, and the weak can only be eliminated!!" The commander of the army added fuel to the fire again, making the eyes of the people below the city wall bloodshot.
Not bad, just like he said.
Only the strong can survive.
Just as people were suspicious of each other and on the verge of a big fight, a figure suddenly stood under the city wall and shouted at the people on the city wall: "You executioners!!!"
"Haven't we already proven our strength by defeating the Rebirth Orcs? Can't a vast kingdom like this accommodate us, just six million people? Have you ever thought that among these six million people, there might be someone who will become a hero to save the kingdom in the future? Even if it's just a possibility, do you want to personally destroy it?"
"The Executioners of the Kingdom!!" A loud roar, his voice was as sonorous as a bell, full of overbearing momentum.
In the face of this figure's questioning, the battle that was originally on the verge of breaking out suddenly became eerily silent. The people at the scene relaxed their original vigilance and looked incredulously at the figure who was shouting angrily at the kingdom.
"East..."
"That idiot!!" After seeing the person clearly, Wàng Chén and his team found that they were one man short. They saw Yè Dōngchén rush out, even Wàng Chén didn't expect the scoundrel to do something so stupid.
It's unbearable to look at your shameless face. Can't you be a bit more decent? This world isn't something that can be solved just by talking big.
Ye Dongchen's body trembled, and even he himself found it unbelievable. He couldn't understand why he burst into a rage after hearing the legion commander's words. Can't people just understand each other? They had already defeated the Rebirth Beastmen, so why were they still killing each other? He couldn't comprehend it, and it was even more incomprehensible!!
This inquiry to the Kingdom Legion Commander is undoubtedly the voice of all players, but they all chose to remain silent because not many people are as hot-blooded and brainless as Ye Dongchen.
The members of the kingdom's army all stared at the figure on the ground with wide eyes, and even the commander couldn't help but reveal a look of puzzlement. After a long time: "There really are such idiots."
"Young devil, do you think a few words from you can change anything? You've managed to make it here, proving you've also gone through many hardships, losing companions and loved ones along the way. And yet, you still dare to say such things - are you an idiot?"
"This world isn't so naive that it can be changed by just a few words from someone. As for the savior who's supposed to save the kingdom, now is the time to prove yourselves. If you can't even pass this test, what qualifications do you have to participate in battle? I'm saying it again: the kingdom doesn't need trash! What I want to see is fighting!!"
"Fight, show me all your power, all your technique, everything!!" The legion commander almost roared.
"No, there's no need for everyone to listen to him. Why do we have to fight? We don't even need to fight. All we need to do is wait here because we already have a way to defeat the Rebirth Beast. We can win like before and our numbers will keep increasing. We can afford to wait, but the kingdom can't. They'll eventually open the gates!!"
"I don't believe you, you will never open the city gate." Yue Dongchen's words were quite naive and wrong, but at this time they had an unexpected effect. Indeed, the kingdom would inevitably open the city gate, and the Freedom Corps would almost go out for a week because they had to defend against the Rebirth Beast's attack, also known as the Explorer.
"We are all living people with vibrant lives, can't we just understand each other?" Ye Dongchen's words greatly changed the way everyone thought.
"Cut, although he's an idiot, but it's actually quite suggestive. Before opening the city gate, perhaps having a unanimous opinion would be beneficial to us." Although the Rebirth Beast will attack unpredictably, they seem to have found a way to defend against it, and as Ye Dongchen said, the number of people here will only increase, and when the time comes, the kingdom will definitely be forced to open the city gate due to the pressure from so many players. Being able to resolve this crisis without fighting would be the best outcome for everyone.
"This guy." Even Wàng Chén didn't think that Yè Dōngchén's actions would bring people to an agreement, to a certain extent this guy is stronger than himself, this was Wàng Chén's feeling.
"Haha, it seems that this time is not easy to control, Commander of the Legion." The commander of the Free Legion smiled faintly, as if waiting for the commanders of the two kingdom armies to solve it.
"Is this really the time for this? Commander of the Free Legion, don't you think of a way to resolve it?"
"Our Free Legion isn't good at this, huh." The guy narrowed his eyes into a line, with an insincere smile, and the player legion commander and two NPC legion commanders didn't seem to be getting along.
"Archers!!"
At the legion commander's order, thousands of robust archers suddenly appeared on the city wall, with exaggeratedly large war bows drawn to the moon, and those sharp iron arrows seemed to break through the sky at any time.
"If you think that this can force us to surrender, then you have underestimated the military strength of our kingdom. Since you don't want to die, then let all of you perish!!"
"First, let's start with you!!" The commander himself drew his bow and shot an arrow, and his target was actually Ye Dongchen. Without any hesitation, the sharp sword flew out of the bowstring and made a loud noise as it rushed towards Dongchen.
"Big Brother Dong Chen!!"
"Be careful!!"
A cry of surprise echoed through the silent atmosphere.
Clang!!
At that critical moment, a figure moved at high speed and violently, the ground was covered with dust, and the sharp arrow broke into two pieces in an instant.
"Must it come to this, Legion Commander?" Wudu said with a scowl, intercepting the opponent's sharp arrow in mid-air. The simple and unadorned knife brought a stunning effect, matching Wudu's words and cold expression, the raging killing intent was like a god of death.
"General Legion's attack was actually blocked by an adventurer?"
"How is it possible, how can a mere adventurer possibly block the way of General Legion......"
The NPC army was shocked, and even the player's legion commander was shaken. Looking at Wang Chen's gaze, there were a few more nods of approval.
What's even more shocking is that a large number of players, the level of the legion commander is almost legendary, and among them, there are people who can withstand the legion commander's attack. Although it was a long-range shot, there is no doubt that the one knife from Wang Chen was indeed stunningly impressive.
"Older brother Wàng Chén."
"You did well, you're not wrong, the only mistake is the era we were born in." Wàng Chén's emotions fluctuated greatly, but looking at Yè Dōngchén, there wasn't a hint of blame.
"But it's still hard to accept." In the end, nothing seemed to have changed. Ye Dongchen was not reconciled - if only he were strong enough, he could change this world.
"If you're not willing to give up, don't want to lose, then just go all out and get stronger. This world may be unfair in many ways, but time is fair. If you want to change the world, having enough power is all that matters." Wàng Chén saved Ye Dōngchén, and under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, he held up his sword and walked to the foot of the city wall, lifted his head, and gazed at the commanders of the three kingdoms with a resolute look in his eyes.
"If I can change the fate of the entire kingdom, can't we make an exception just this once and let everyone enter the city?" Forgotten Dust's words were powerful and resonant, and they even echoed back from beneath the city walls.
Wang Chen's words didn't sound like a joke, nor did they seem to be something Ye Dongchen would say. He was very serious and more convincing than what Ye Dongchen had said.
But just saying so is not enough, the legion commander sent over a cold sneer of inquiry: "Young man, your words are like spilled water, can you change the kingdom? With just you? A mere adventurer who hasn't even reached six heavens?"
Wang Yun, with his sword in hand, stood beneath the city wall. His presence seemed to be within speaking distance of them as he said, "Isn't life itself a game? What, don't even the commanders of the kingdom's army have the courage to take a gamble?"
"Spare these six thousand people before your eyes and there will be an opportunity to change the fate of the kingdom."
"This is a gamble of fate, the kingdom!" That confident smile and the roar echoing under the city walls was revered as a god by these 600,000 people before him!!
Everyone, I've been busy with my girlfriend's car accident these past few days, so daytime updates can't be stable. I apologize here and will resume updates and bursts after handling it.
