Yun Xian, who was silently paying attention to the movements here, felt a sudden sense of loss when she heard these words, but she was suddenly stunned the next moment.
"Xiao Xian, Xiao Qian and I are now good friends today."
Chapter 140: What is a Ghost?
"So what's the matter that prevents you from playing with us today?"
Facing the question from the other end of the line, I seemed helpless, "Why do I have to play games with you guys every day?"
"Huh, didn't you promise mother?"
"That's just a promise. I'm not your real mom. And even if it's true, it's only Xiao Qian's. It has nothing to do with you."
"You... don't think of me calling you mom or something. It will be so embarrassing if others hear it." Yun Xian felt like "I treat you as a good friend, but you want to be my mom."
I grasped the key point, "So, as long as no one else hears you, you'll scream?"
Yun Xian was subconsciously stunned when she heard this, and then she reacted, "Go to hell, I'm hanging up the phone, you can talk to Xiao Qian yourself, I won't speak for you."
"I know, I know. By the way, you'd better not bring Xiao Qian to fight the ruins today. I guess the final boss in the ruins will definitely have new moves today."
"Humph, do you think you're an event planner? You can guess everything. And why should I listen to you? I have to go, I have to go, Lululu."
This damn brat...
Looking at the hung up call in front of me, I couldn't help but roll my eyes, thinking that I did remind you, so if you are really tortured and have a psychological trauma, it can't be my fault. But it would be good to dampen this guy's enthusiasm at least.
Afterwards, I also got in touch with Yun Qian and comforted her, who was feeling a little disappointed because we couldn’t play games together.
Fortunately, Yun Qian is a very well-behaved and sensible girl. After listening to my explanation, although she was still a little reluctant, she also said that it was okay and that she would play with her and her sister after I finished the things at hand.
It's not like criticizing a girl with twin tails by name. She will come up to her shamelessly even at the risk of getting a few more bumps on her head.
But the situation this time is different.
Not only is today one of the last few days before the October holiday, but it is also an unusual day in the game, or to be more precise, in the town of Nalton in the Constantana Empire - this is the last time that the Nalton military has truly sent out all its forces to attack the ruins of Undercity.
For those players who are still trapped in the front area of the second level of the ruins after a week, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to cooperate with the army to completely clear the second level of the ruins and advance the progress of the event to the final stage in one fell swoop.
Therefore, not only the big guilds sent out all their elite groups to try to get a piece of the pie, but most of the other scattered players and studios were also ready to go, looking forward to the scene where the army would exert all its strength.
If it were before, facing the almost unreserved Nalton military, I might still be nervous because I know the military's strength well.
Because I know that the area I designed earlier is like hell for the players, but under the attack of the complete army, it can be successfully broken through, and it will only be a little troublesome at most.
In addition, with the help of other players, there is a high probability that he will give up the "Source of Evil" that he has been guarding for almost a month.
However, after receiving a hint from two sisters and contacting the ability of the Evil Corpse Queen, and thinking of a BUG-like mechanism that existed in the early stage of the game and has not been fixed yet, I have already changed the latter part of the second floor of the ruins and have full confidence in it.
He even took the initiative to reveal the contents of the second floor of the ruins to Isabella and the others, and provided a lot of "useful" suggestions.
"Thanks to Her Highness Sophielina's advice, we were able to recruit some soldiers and priests from other legions and churches in advance, and most of them have learned the art of mass purification."
After Anna handed the list of the troops to her sister Peggy, she sincerely thanked the saint of the church in front of her, "Otherwise we really don't know how to deal with the dangerous environment of the second floor of the ruins."
In fact, even without a warning, the investigation team in the army would investigate the situation inside the ruins and let Isabella and the others be prepared. It was just a matter of how much time in advance and how many clergy and priests could be recruited during this period of time.
But it seemed that because of my reminder, the army was well prepared, which made Anna so sincere, so I accepted the thanks with peace of mind. "No need, this is what Sophielina should do."
Then, I also told her the purpose of my visit. "I'm sorry, but Sophielina has to help Sister Claire deal with the church's affairs. Maybe she won't be able to fight alongside Sister Anna and Sister Isabella in this operation."
"It's okay. The information and suggestions provided by Your Highness have already been of great help to us. Moreover, given Your Highness's status, it is indeed not suitable for you to accompany us to such an environment. The previous actions with the army have greatly boosted morale. We are already very satisfied, so please don't blame yourself."
"Then Sophielina will pray for you, Sister Anna!"
Looking at the petite figure in front of her with her hands clasped in a cheering gesture, Anna didn't know if it was because she had been with Lady Claire for a long time these days, but she always felt that she seemed to be more and more attracted by Her Highness Sophielina's loveliness and personal charm. Her eyes couldn't help but soften and she smiled slightly.
"Well, all the troops will participate in this operation. With Her Highness Sophielina's prayers, I believe we will definitely bring back the final victory."
Looking at the other person leaving, I smiled secretly.
It's hard to say whether I can bring back the final victory, and this time I didn't come here to pray for them. That was just an excuse, and I colluded with Claire to avoid being discovered.
In fact, he just wanted to go back to the ruins, command the monsters under his command, and show the true strength of the command-level BOSS Evil Spirit Corpse Queen. Of course, this also included the real design of the latter part of the second level of the ruins.
"You think I'm providing good advice." I shrugged, with a different kind of arc at the corner of my mouth. "But that's just advice for the front area. The back area is not so easy to deal with."
And rather than saying that they were not that easy to deal with, it would be more appropriate to say that I deliberately led them into the trap.
……
……
The feedback has not been very good recently, so I will finish this volume as soon as possible in a dozen chapters. Next, I should upgrade the artifact to level three and start building the city.
Chapter 141 Final Action
The entrance to the Undercity ruins in the town of Nalton in the Jakarin region of the Constantana Empire.
When the sisters Yun Xian and Yun Qian came over, they found that the place was already crowded with people. Even the edge of the nearby forest was filled with people.
It looked as if all the players in the Jakarin area had come here, but in fact there were only a small number of them.
Because many people are on their way, or they think that they cannot conquer the place for the time being, and are waiting for the army to clear away the obstacles in front of them so that they can advance smoothly.
But no matter what, it was the first time that Yun Xian felt the heat of the event from the large number of players.
"There are so many people here, which makes the event lively." Yun Xian looked left and right and said with satisfaction.
Little did she know that it was just as lively before, but she didn't notice it because she was busy exploring the ruins with her sister and didn't pay attention to anything else.
"Sister, didn't Xiaotong's mother say that it's best not to go to the ruins today?" Yun Qian beside her asked curiously. Although playing with her sister made her forget the feeling of loss to some extent, she was still thinking about what a certain pink-haired guy said.
Yun Xian felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She reached out and gently rubbed her sister's face. "Don't always follow her. We should have our own ideas. And can you change this name? It sounds weird."
"But sister, didn't you also call Xiaotong mom?" Yun Qian blinked, feeling a little aggrieved.
"Who, who called me that? You just forced me to do that. I don't want to be called that weird name."
"What do you want to be called, sister?"
"An An? No, no, I don't want to call you the same name as that stupid auger... Tong Tong... Isn't that too intimate... Xiao Tong, it sounds so ordinary, not my style."
"Hitomi-chan?"
“Well, this is quite…” Yun Xian suddenly realized that she had been tricked, “I told you not to use this name!”
Yun Qian blinked her eyes, "Is my sister a tsundere?"
"Who is being arrogant? That guy told you something weird. There is no need to learn such things. Forget it now."
Yun Xian complained a lot to her sister, and was also full of resentment about this, "This abominable guy, not only did he not play with us, but he also taught Xiao Qian bad things."
"And Auger and Cecilia also said they were busy. That's weird. Are the three of them going to have a meeting today?"
But it looked like the tsundere condition was very serious. He muttered to himself, and even though there was only his sister next to him, he quickly added, "Of course, I don't want to play with them. I just think it would be more fun with more people."
Of course, she didn't know that her three good friends were about to cause a bloody storm in the Undercity ruins that she and Yun Qian were going to conquer together.
But she probably wouldn't pay too much attention to it now, because just as Yun Xian finished speaking, a loud noise came from the direction of the outpost that had been converted into a front-line base.
Many of the players present recognized it immediately.
"The wait is finally here."
"coming."
"The army is finally here."
Just as they thought, a huge army came rushing from the direction of the outpost, led by Isabella, the officer in charge of the operation, who finally took action herself after the army's several operations failed.
As the heir trained by the Nalton Church, Anna rarely appears in front of the players. Although she has always been in charge of the logistics of the operation, in fact, her strength is not weaker than Isabella. The identity of a level 30 elite can naturally prove her strength.
Other elite natives who had appeared in previous operations were also ready to go in the team, including Anna's sister Peggy, Lucina, an important officer in the White Rose Legion under Isabella, and so on.
The overall team has also grown a lot larger than before, and there are many well-trained and high-level soldiers among them.
"The army is prepared this time."
It seemed that something interesting was discovered among the Aurora and Paradise Lost teams, and Yili Qingqiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"After all, this is the last operation. The Nalton military must be fully prepared." Qingyu beside him shrugged, thinking it was natural, but also a little sighing, "The scale of this time is much larger than before. It really has the atmosphere of a war."
Beibei covered her mouth and chuckled, "Compared with the fortress war and national war versions that will be released later in the era, it's nothing compared to them. Sister Qingyu, you can tell at a glance that you haven't played many large-scale online games."
"I'm so sorry, I always played alone before."
When Qingyu was chasing and beating Beibei, Yili Qingqiu sighed, "Beibei is fine, but Sister Qingyu, as a thief, you should at least have some observation skills."
"All those with good eyesight have been sent to set traps." Qingyu said confidently, but he also followed Yili Qingqiu's instructions and saw the special situation in the army. "Well, why do I feel that the number of priests and clergy here is several times more than before?"
"They should have been recruited from somewhere else. They must have some understanding of the situation inside the ruins."
"The AI of an army like this must be very high. I heard from people on the forum that they would send out an investigation team to investigate in advance. It's not surprising, right?" Beibei held his head and blinked.
"No, there must be a template for the various mechanisms in the game. The military system of Epoch should be used, or at least borrowed from the real situation."
Yili Qingqiu shook his head, lowered his eyes and pondered, "I have read some books on war. With the administrative level of Nalton, a conscription of this scale, from the written level to the ideal situation, even if there are some differences in the game, I think it should take about five or six days."
"Isn't that possible?" Qingyu asked doubtfully.
But she reacted quickly. At that time, the second floor of the ruins had not been opened for long, and the investigation team sent by the army could not have opened up the ruins earlier than the players.
"We got all the general information about the second floor of the ruins on the second day after it was opened."
Yili Qingqiu saw the look on Qingyu and Beibei's faces and knew that they had figured out the key point. "The investigation team should not be able to compete with our internal intelligence network. Logically, there will be a delay, but this is not the case now. I can only think of one guess."
"The army has obtained intelligence from the players here."
"Can this still happen?"
Qingyu and Beibei seemed very surprised. Although they knew that Jiyuan was very interactive, they did not expect it to be to this extent.
"Of course, I can, but..." Yili Qingqiu thought of something and shook his head again, "With the highest military rank a player currently has, there is no way I can gain such respect in the military."
"This action gives me a strange feeling. Anyway, when we go in later, everyone should be as careful as possible."
Chapter 142: The Encounter of the Two
No matter what Yili Qingqiu thought, after the army arrived, Isabella and several of her officers made some advance arrangements.
This naturally includes pre-war speeches to boost morale.
But for the carefree Isabella, those red tapes are naturally unnecessary. "Some of you have been in the army longer than me, the commander, and I don't want to talk about those old-fashioned things."
"Although all the previous battles were failures, it doesn't matter, because I didn't lead them." This timely joke also eased the tension in the team and made many people in the army laugh.
But soon, her tone changed, "But the previous failures are not meaningless. At least with the efforts of these people, we were able to obtain enough intelligence before this operation and make adequate preparations."
"This is the most important and final operation. As the head of the White Rose Army, I am confident that I can lead you to win this battle. Do you have the confidence to bring victory to me and all the people of Nalton who are looking forward to your triumphant return?"
"Have!"
The powerful sound almost resounded throughout the forest surrounding the ruins.
As someone who grew up in a military family, even though Isabella is a little nervous, she still has a good grasp of the ability of a commander.
This unusual and rigid speech successfully boosted the morale of the army.
Perhaps this was also due to his personal charm. Over the past month, the soldiers gradually began to identify with this young commander who was not arrogant and was able to integrate into the military atmosphere.
But no matter what, after the morale of the army has been boosted, it is natural to take advantage of the situation and speed up action.
Isabella didn't say much. After the ban in front of the entrance was removed, she immediately ordered the army behind her to enter the ruins of Undercity first.
At the fork in the open space, he made the arrangements as he had thought. "Lucina and Carly will be on one team, and Bernisa and Christine will be on another. Each of you will lead your men to advance to both sides. Leave some men behind to clean up the surrounding monsters along the way, and meet up at the end."
"The rest of you, follow me and advance from the middle area."
The most important principle for a soldier is to obey orders. After hearing this, the officers under Isabella took their men to act according to what the other party said without any hesitation.
Anna, who was not in the military system and was on the same level as Isabella, raised the question in everyone's mind, "Why do we have to start from the side? Wouldn't it be faster to attack directly from the middle area?"
After all, with the current strength of the army, there is no need to worry about the monsters on the first floor. It will definitely be faster to concentrate all efforts on one point at this time.
But Isabella had a different opinion. "Sister Anna, although we are strong enough to deal with it, those adventurers are a bit troublesome. Moreover, with their size, if we just cut in from the middle, the battle lines in front and behind will be dragged out a lot, so we need to solve these obstacles as much as possible."
"Don't think that these adventurers are not as strong as us. Even an ant, no matter how small, can shake a giant tree. I think this operation cannot rely solely on our army, the Ruins Church, and adventurers are also a great help."
Isabella's idea gave Anna and others a good reminder. Only then did they notice that the power of the adventurers should not be underestimated.
As the army poured in, the players who had gathered around the ruins could not wait to follow behind. However, except for some scattered players in the front, they surprisingly generally abided by the principle of letting the guild's elite group enter first.
