Chapter 330 Situation

Game time PM19:33
Gudami Plains, joint force station, command tent

"Okay, let everyone withdraw as planned."

Mo Tan stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on a chess piece in front of him, extinguished the light red light on it, and said in a low voice: "In this way, there will be no worries for the time being..."

Yu Ying, who was sitting not far away, nodded slightly: "Understood, the next round of teams will start in [-] minutes. If you don't plan to command them directly, then follow the original plan to conduct a small-scale investigation in the northern part of the Snow Bamboo Forest. is that OK?"

"No, the next two rounds of operations today are temporarily canceled." Mo Tan shook his head and rejected the plan he had prepared before, closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, and said softly: "Except for players who want to mix mission contribution Except for those, let all members of the combat order rest."

Yuying sighed softly, and didn't say a few casual words like in the past, but quickly opened the message board and told several heralds about Mo Tan's arrangement just now, the latter were all weak or not strong at all. The players, because they are basically unable to play a role in most of the missions, so they shoulder the responsibility of running errands and spreading the word, creating value in this regional event in another way.

After conveying the order, Yu Ying glanced hesitantly at Mo Tan, who seemed to be asleep, and said hesitantly: "There has been no news from Cordoba since the afternoon, he..."

"He just told me the situation."

Mo Tan opened his eyes and looked at a certain place on the map in a daze, staring at the two lines above that read, "Fair City, medium-sized, with a permanent population of about [-], rich in seventeen low-level alchemy potions The necessary materials—red silkworm leaves, medicinal leeches' in cursive characters, murmured palely: "Because the people infected with the plague were not isolated in time, they were wiped out within two days after the mutation broke out. The survivors... one person... ..."

The girl who had just walked into the tent suddenly covered her mouth, her tired eyes looked at Mo Tan in shock, her legs that were trembling due to exhaustion softened, and she staggered and fell from the doorway. Come in.

Yuying suddenly stood up and wanted to run over to catch Yuchen who was about to fall to the ground, but another person was faster than her——

"Law barrier."

Mo Tan opened his tightly clenched right hand, and made a lifting gesture to Yuchen from across the air, and then saw the girl's body, which had obviously lost its center of gravity, stagnate slightly in mid-air, and was followed by Yu Ying jumped to her side and hugged her.

The latter glanced back at Mo Tan: "What kind of sorcery is this?"

Mo Tan lowered his hand with a wry smile, and didn't explain much. He really didn't have such a leisurely heart at the moment, and he knew that Yu Ying was just making a fuss subconsciously, and he might not be in a better mood than himself, even though the latter After receiving the news from Cordoba, he already guessed the ending, and even took the initiative to remind the other party to give up the search and rescue operation, but that was just an effort to calm down. After the news that tens of thousands of people died in Fair City was confirmed, this The self-proclaimed female assassin with Mo De's feelings was also shocked, otherwise she couldn't have moved so much slower when she went to help Yu Chen...

It's just a piece of news, but the fact that tens of thousands of lives are simply marked with a cold label of "destroyed within two days, one survivor" is too unacceptable. If it is changed to one or two months The few people present here may not have any real feelings, but how can they be untouched at this time after they have been working hard in Misha County.

After witnessing those suffering from the plague kneeling around Yuchen and cheering...

After personally saving dozens of hundreds of lives that were driven to death by those mutants...

After personally experiencing countless tragedies of eternal separation between heaven and man, and white-haired people sending black-haired people...

Suddenly learned that tens of thousands of lives that were not the slightest difference from those people had disappeared in just two days, and no one could remain calm.

What's worse, the few people who have seen those mutants kill can even imagine that hellish scene.

"Feel sorry……"

As the effect of [Law Obstacle] faded, Yu Chen, who had lost the restraint, raised her little head leaning on Yuying's shoulder. She barely stood up, her face was still lacking in blood, and she hesitated for a few seconds before rushing forward. The man asked in a low voice, "What were you talking about...?"

Yu Ying blinked at Mo Tan, and handed over the power of explanation to Mo Tan.

"Some unpleasant information." The latter stood up, gave his chair to Yuchen, leaned against the long table in silence for a while, and then slowly said: "Cordoba, who went to the south to investigate the situation, The news was sent back that the city of Fair in the middle of the southern border was destroyed. More than [-] people in the city died or were transformed into mutants. Only one child who was protected in the Just Church survived. When Cordoba brought the child After leaving the city, the area filled with countless resentments and blasphemy immediately turned into a cursed place..."

Mo Tan roughly explained the information that Cordoba had just sent a few minutes ago, and then turned his head sideways to stare at Yu Chen's paler face with some unease, his anxiety was palpable in his words.

Although he has already deeply realized how strong this seemingly timid and weak girl beside him is, he is still subconsciously worried about whether the other party can bear the bad news, even though everyone knows that those NPCs are just a string of data in theory, even though Those victims and everyone present were neither relatives nor acquaintances. Although there was a difference of one dimension between them, Mo Tan dared to guarantee everything he had. Yuchen, who is busy with many people, will never care about those things, so...

"I see."

Yuchen's lowered eyes were a little red, and her soft and pleasant voice was trembling, but she still raised her head a few seconds later with a forced smile: "Don't worry, is there anything I can do? "

Mo Tan didn't know what the other party meant by 'don't worry', but he was inexplicably relieved under the girl's warm and trusting eyes, then shook his head and said: "You have worked hard enough, everyone has worked hard enough Everyone in this station has been doing what they should do, but there are some things that we can't stop and can't avoid."

"Damn it." Yu Ying stomped her feet angrily, and said angrily, "Aren't there many big bosses with special gods in this world? Why can't I see any of them at a time like this! Those sword masters and magic gods Ah, let’s not talk about it, are the powerhouses of the next level, second level, and third level all dead?! More than [-] people survived, just one of them survived, it’s not a joke!”

Mo Tan sighed: "Do you think this is strange?"

Yu Ying's eyes widened: "Isn't this weird enough?"

Yu Chen also whispered uncomfortably: "I also have this idea... Although I can barely be regarded as a member of the Holy Church Union now, er... a main member."

"In fact, this is not surprising at all." Mo Tan explained while looking at the map on the table thoughtfully: "First of all, you need to know that Misha County is, to some extent, a place without The countryside with any affiliation or no affiliation has no direct relationship with the major forces around it, even though it is very close to the Fire Claw Territory in the northwest of the Violet Empire, it is also very close to the eastern fortress of the Principality of Slanka, and the northern border is even closer. It is directly bordered by the sanctuary, but it does not belong to any of the above three, so the major forces are not obliged to help Misha County through this disaster. Of course, out of humanitarianism, they will not sit idly by , but there is no way to count on the specific strength. The Violet Empire can’t handle its own affairs. Supplies, but in the final analysis, it is because I am afraid that the plague here will spread, but the Holy Church Alliance is quite powerful. The two saintesses and [-] low-level paladins are indeed a lot of power, especially Yu Chen Now that I have mastered the ability to disperse the plague in a large area, to be honest, if those mutants hadn’t suddenly appeared, maybe the problem would have been solved long ago.”

Yu Chen frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "But we don't have the power to reverse the situation..."

"No, the power to reverse the situation actually exists, or should be said to have been there before." Mo Tan shook his head with a wry smile, then spread his hands and said, "Leaving aside you, our senior saintess is worthy of the name. Xia Lian once told me that if she was still in her prime, she would be able to kill all the mutants in Misha County just by using divine magic. As for the five hundred low-level saints The fundamental purpose of a knight is actually to protect you, and in terms of combat power, Xia Lian alone is enough."

Yuying gritted her teeth: "Then she's going to go, if she's really as strong as you said, she probably wouldn't ask even if she was slightly injured..."

"No, there is a problem." Mo Tan interrupted the former's complaint, and said sternly: "It's not that she was slightly injured, but she was attacked head-on by the dark divine power, and she can hardly use divine arts at all. You understand what this means What are you wearing?"

Yuying pondered for a while, then asked tentatively, "Does this mean that she can only hit people with sticks?"

"Ah, that..."

Yu Chen raised his hand timidly, and reminded sheepishly, "That's a cross."

The two looked at each other, and showed a very forced smile at the same time. Obviously, the two girls are trying very hard to adjust the current overly depressing atmosphere, but it has little effect. After all, the south is dead. There are tens of thousands of people, and the number is even several times more than the sum of the survivors they saved during this period. The vast majority of people can't help but doubt themselves in the face of this extremely heavy reality. Will everything be just a joke.

Fortunately, the mentality of these few people is very good, even self-doubt did not last long.

"Well, anyway, as long as you work hard, it's all done in cartoons."

Yuying said something without thinking.

"It's good to be able to help one more person. There are still many things we can do."

Yu Chen waved his small fist lightly, and said in the same nonchalant way: "At least we can't let other innocent people suffer the same fate."

Mo Tan looked at the two in front of him dumbfounded: "Are you comforting me?"

Yuying nodded: "Yes, yes, the sky is falling and there is a tall one to support it. I have to cheer you up, a big guy with tall brackets not on the physical level, so that you can get along with the task."

Yu Chen nodded: "Mo Tan, you should think about it a little bit, your expression is too ugly..."

"I was just thinking about something."

The psychological quality is poor, and Mo Tan, who just forcibly used self-hypnosis to calm himself down, gave a dry laugh, completely unaware of how ugly his face was before, explained lightly, and then continued to explain to Yuying : "Let's put it this way, Xia Lian who can't use divine spells is equivalent to those magicians in other games who have luxurious equipment, capped levels, and superb skills but can't cast spells. Do you understand?"

Yuying was stunned for a moment: "Are you sure it's a magician who can't cast spells and not a berserker who can't cast spells? She beat that fierce-looking Cordoba before! The battle ranking is second. !"

"Even if a level [-] mage can knock a level [-] wild boar to death with a stick." Mo Tan gave an inappropriate example and continued: "So strictly speaking, the support of the Holy Church Alliance this time is already enough. It is said that the strength is quite strong. As for the power in other aspects, as I said before, Misha County is just a countryside where no one cares. The combat power is not too high. Those who are ambitious and capable have already gone elsewhere to develop. Those who have no strength and qualifications have countless better choices. In addition, a large number of people are needed on the blockade line, so this situation is true. It's normal."

Yuchen lowered his shoulders in frustration, and said in a low voice: "But even if the saint sister is injured, there are many powerful people on the Holy Church Union, and I have seen a few senior divines from other sects before." , if we let them come over and help a little bit, maybe so many people won’t die.”

"This is also easy to explain." Mo Tan rubbed his forehead and shrugged helplessly: "They don't need to come when Xia Lian is not injured. After Xia Lian's side is backlashed by divine power, they shouldn't come here." gone."

Yu Chen blinked in confusion: "Why?"

"Think about it, a powerful saint is planted here."

Mo Tan patted the map of Misha County in front of Yuchen, and said in a deep voice: "Then other people will be fine if they come over? Besides, Misha County does not belong to the sanctuary. What if the strong come to rescue the capital and come to help, like Xia Lian, and are attacked by the Dark Goddess?"

"Wow, is it so realistic..."

Yuchen uttered a cry like a small animal.

"Yes."

Mo Tan nodded, then picked up a quill to draw a big red circle somewhere on the map, squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: "So for such a small place, we should just count on us little people..."
