Quadruple split.

Chapter 193 Plan ahead
The battle ended quickly, and there was no suspense in the outcome...

Although there are more than three times the number of paladins, these monsters still have no chance in front of the former. In less than ten minutes, a total of sixteen paladins have wiped out all the monsters, and only one person was slightly injured. And the price of a war horse.

Yu Ying, who did not participate in the battle, showed a relaxed smile, and many infected civilians who were watching the battle from a distance from the station cheered excitedly. The powerful paladins gave them a sense of security. A shot in the arm for the most vulnerable.

But Mo Tan didn't show the slightest expression of relief, on the contrary, his expression was very worried, and he kept frowning tightly, wondering what he was thinking.

Yuying glanced at the paladins who had completed the formation amidst the cheers of the crowd, turned her head and asked Mo Tan curiously: "You don't look very happy, why?"

"Eight minutes." Mo Tan watched the returning paladins and sighed softly.

Yu Ying's dark red eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean the time of the battle just now?"

Although Yu Ying never cosplayed as a cold-faced killer in front of fellow player Mo Tan, her reaction was still quick, which shows that this girl is also a delicate and calm person in reality.

Mo Tan nodded: "That's right, it took eight minutes from the time the paladins charged in formation until the last mutant's head was chopped off."

"Is eight minutes long?" Yuying tightened the red scarf around her collar, and said with a smile, "They are facing an enemy several times their size. It is already very good to have achieved such a result."

There is nothing wrong with her words in theory. After all, those paladins whose strength is at least comparable to that of level [-] players each killed three to four mutants on average, and they remained uninjured almost the whole time. This is absolutely understandable Comparing the combat effectiveness of the crushing level, it is undoubtedly a very proud record under normal circumstances.

[But it is not a routine situation now...]

Mo Tan gave a wry smile, shrugged at Yuying and said, "The battle lasted for eight minutes. Sixteen paladins and fifty-three mutants participated in the battle. Eighteen of them were directly wiped out in the first round of charge. Six minutes later, all the enemies Destroy..."

Yuying rolled her eyes: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"There are a hundred paladins in Mida City." Mo Tan stretched out a finger and shook it lightly: "Looking at the battle just now, even if the paladins remain in full power forever, they can only cope with their own number five at the same time." There are eight times as many mutants, and there are more than [-] civilians in Misha County, at least one of three of these civilians has been infected with the plague, and seriously injured people infected with the plague have a high probability of converting into mutants..."

Yuying pondered for a moment, and her face gradually became gloomy: "It seems that the situation is not so optimistic."

"No." Mo Tan shook his head, turned around and walked towards the city: "The situation is terrible."

The girl stood there silent for a long while, then curled her lips in the direction where the former was going: "Cut, what a handsome boy..."

ten minutes later
Mo Tan and Yu Chen, who met at the Holy Church's United Chapel, came to the temporary station in the west of Mida City, and found Tai Luo, a mid-level paladin who was inspecting the situation in front of a row of simple barracks.

"His Royal Highness." The latter immediately bowed to Yu Chen and nodded to Mo Tan as a greeting, and then hurriedly asked, "What are you doing here? Is it safe outside the city? "

Mo Tan nodded: "Yes, Mr. Taylor, that group of mutants has been wiped out by the knights."

"Very good." Tai Luo nodded with satisfaction: "The great goddess protects us, and all filth will be melted away under the light of dawn."

Mo Tan smiled, but in his heart he was a little disapproving of this standard magician's remarks. After all, he had already communicated twice with the goddess the other party was talking about, and the latter gave him a really kind of impression.

Yu Chen's expression was also a little weird, as if he was choking on something, obviously the girl's ability to control her emotions was not very good.

"We will pass this test in the end." Mo Tan also replied in an unusual manner, and then said in a low voice: "However, there are some things that I want to discuss with you..."

Although it was only Mo Tan's own thoughts, he very naturally brought Yu Chen along.

When Tai Luo heard that His Royal Highness had something to discuss (he subconsciously ignored Mo Tan), he immediately looked serious: "Yes."

So Mo Tan recounted the details of the previous battle outside the city to Tai Luo, and repeated what he said to Yuying just now, and finally concluded: "So Her Majesty and I both I feel that although our individual combat ability is much stronger than those mutants, the opponent has an absolute numerical advantage, and the number of monsters is increasing every moment. If this continues... the situation is really not optimistic. Paladins are very likely to suffer casualties."

"Each of us is ready to be martyred at any time." Taylor replied solemnly: "Death and danger cannot shake the faith of a paladin."

Mo Tan sighed with a headache...

Taylor is a very paladin. He is firm, handsome, loyal, brave, and kind. He abides by the code of chivalry, and he doesn't have any scheming or city skills, and he doesn't care about sacrificing himself for his faith. But at the same time, he It is also a bit stubborn and rigid, which is why Mo Tan went to the city hall to discuss with Sol first, instead of coming to this "person of his own" in the first place.

Mo Tan originally planned to gather those low-level professionals outside the city before coming to Tai Luo to discuss it, but the sudden monster attack just now gave him a chance, or it was a reason, so he returned to the city first. It's time to bring Yuchen over here.

"There are only a hundred paladins in Mida City now." Mo Tan said to Tai Luo while deliberating: "You are also flesh and blood, and you will be tired, and your horses will be injured, and those monsters are very likely to be killed in the future. It will continue to appear, and our situation will become very passive by then."

Tai Luo patted the long sword on his waist: "Our will is as strong as steel."

"I believe." Mo Tan nodded immediately, and then said in a deep voice: "But even this will still cause casualties. In the case of a ratio of 1:5, one knight was injured in the fight, and another A war horse had its chest ripped apart in the chaotic battle, what if the number of the opponent is more?"

Taylor made a prayer gesture and said reverently: "After the glorious death in battle, we will return to the embrace of the gods."

【I guarantee that the goddess will not want to hug you...】

Mo Tan groaned in his heart, then asked with a smile: "Then what will happen to the civilians when everyone is killed in battle?"

Taylor hesitated for a moment, then said seriously: "We will protect the innocent until the last moment."

"But when the 'last moment' is over, those people will still be killed." Mo Tan narrowed his eyes slightly, and pointed to Yu Chen: "Our saint may also be included."

Yu Chen shrank his neck, his little face turned red.

Taylor was silent, the steadfast paladin remained silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "We can only do so much, as you said, Priest Black Fan, the number of those mutants is too large. too much."

"I have an idea." Mo Tan blinked at Tai Luo, and then repeated the 'conscription' plan he had told Sol before.

"Let those civilians who can't fight at all pick up weapons?!" Tai Luo's eyes widened, and he shook his head vigorously: "No, this is absolutely not possible. They should be the party to be protected. We can't do this."

While playing with the cross on his wrist, Mo Tan added: "Not only those civilians, but also those low-level professionals who have defended the city before, they also have certain combat effectiveness."

Tai Luo frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I admire those people, but they don't have the blessing of sacred power, and they haven't experienced formal baptism. If they are injured by those monsters, they will easily be infected with the plague."

"The right to choose is in their own hands." Mo Tan smiled and said softly: "The Lord City Master has prepared some rewards, and we can give priority to treating the family members or relatives of those brave people, even those who are still young despite being infected with the plague." Strong infected people, if they are willing to fight to defend their homeland, Her Royal Highness can give priority to treating their bodies..."

Tai Luo waved his hand violently, and interrupted in a deep voice: "You are a threat."

"No, this is just a reward for the brave." Mo Tan shrugged and spread his hands: "We just want to encourage them to take up arms to defend their homeland, and Her Royal Highness also means the same."

Yu Chen, who had already discussed with Mo Tan on the way, nodded lightly: "Yes, Mr. Tai Luo, everyone...has the right to defend their homeland, and the goddess also hopes that everyone can unite to tide over the difficulties, and It’s not about a few doing it all.”

Apart from pulling the banner of the goddess, these words are also Yuchen's own thoughts, not the lines arranged before.

Tai Luo nodded with some struggle, hesitatingly said: "But those civilians..."

"It would be the best if the Knights can train them." Mo Tan was very clear about what the other party was hesitating, and explained peacefully: "Although the physical fitness of those mutants is several times stronger than that of normal people, it's just that. That's all, I think those trained civilians can at least help the knights contain the enemy."

"Help me?" Taro scratched his cheek with a confused expression.

Mo Tan nodded as it should: "Of course, I don't want to use them as cannon fodder. The main combat power is knights plus those low-level professionals. At least in the current situation, those civilians only need to cooperate with you. The risk is not high. It will be very big, not to mention Her Royal Highness will give priority to treating them."

After listening to this explanation, Taylor finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Okay then, I will fully cooperate."

This somewhat rigid and stubborn paladin was finally persuaded...

half an hour later

Shengjiao United Chapel, Yuchen's room

"But this is just the first step." Mo Tan yawned tiredly leaning against the door, and said to Yu Chen with a wry smile, "I don't know the specific effect yet."

The girl smiled: "Student Mo Tan has worked very hard, much better than me."

"Don't say that." Mo Tan shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for you, most of those infected civilians would have died by now."

Yu Chen chuckled, and then threw lay on hands at himself.

"Did you lose blood?" Mo Tan asked curiously.

"No." Yuchen shook his head slightly, and released a new star of dawn full of warmth on the spot, and said softly: "I just want to try to see if there is any harmless magic under the interference of darkness. In this case, classmate Mo Tan You don't have to be...well, a target for me every time."

Mo Tan shrugged: "I don't mind, anyway, I can add blood to myself."

"But it won't be very comfortable, ah, here we come!" Yu Chen whispered, then pondered for a moment, clapped his hands and said, "Let's try [Calm Halo] this time~"

Five seconds later, a snow-white halo spread out around the girl. Because of the talent [Incarnation of Holy Light], the divine light that has been disturbed still shines brightly, and there is no blackening element at all.

but……

"It seems to be not bad, I didn't lose my life... Hey!?" Mo Tan, who was brushed by the halo, was just halfway through speaking, and then he felt stiff all over, and then rushed out of the door under Yu Chen's inexplicable gaze.

The girl stood there with a dazed expression, feeling a bit square.

After a while, the door opened again, and Mo Tan walked in helplessly, and waved Yu Chen vigorously: "This is not acceptable, this is definitely not acceptable."

Yu Chen tilted his head: "What's wrong with this?"

"It didn't lose blood, but this thing has a forced fear effect." Mo Tan smiled bitterly: "I suddenly felt cold all over, and then my body opened the door uncontrollably and ran away. There was an extra character on the character panel called [ The negative state of panic] lasted for about four or five seconds."

Yu Chen was taken aback: "Ah, if you use this during treatment..."

"I doubt that those who are seriously injured will be frightened to death." Mo Tan made a serious judgment and looked at his hands with lingering fear: "It's completely out of control, and I feel a little panicked. It may be more obvious on NPCs, your skill is a bit powerful... the range is scary."

Yuchen stuck out his tongue with a smirk: "Sorry, I scared you~"

"That's not true, it's just..." Mo Tan shook his head, then suddenly froze for a moment, and then said to Yu Chen with a smile: "I should go offline, I have something to do outside, let's talk later."

The girl nodded in confusion: "Oh, good."

Then Mo Tan hurried back to his room without saying a word, and then exploded on the spot...I mean dropped the line on the spot.
