How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

However, even the dark gold equipment is extremely powerful.

I casually put the three pieces of equipment into my backpack, as if talking to myself, or as if asking intentionally or unintentionally.

"Am I right?"

The attack from behind was disrupted for a moment, but it turned into a fierce blow again in an instant.

However, I had already swapped places with the phantom not far away.

After missing the first attack, the attacker chased after him again, obviously knowing that he had lost most of his life-saving skills. However, he was blocked by a fierce ice array in the middle of the attack.

Ahri was suspended in the air, howling.

The ice formation instantly turned into countless ice blades and flew out.

The figure kept retreating, thus avoiding all the damage. It seems that no matter how terrifying Ahri's magic damage is, it still has some limitations when facing top thieves.

Of course, the limitations are not great, because the thief's reaction and life-saving skills are limited after all, and as long as he makes a mistake once, he will die.

"You missed again."

I asked Ahri to cast an ice shield on herself and come back to my side as a deterrent. I stayed where I was and watched the attacker in the distance at my leisure.

The opponent was naturally the Ashes whom he had met before.

Apparently, after the first attack on him failed, he had completely set his sights on him because of that provocation. He had probably followed him all the way before, and only launched the attack after the battle between him and the king and the barbarians was over.

I guess he was planning to take advantage of this moment when my vigilance was at its lowest.

However, through the phantom hidden somewhere else, I had vaguely sensed that there were other thieves in the field, but I didn't know their exact location.

At this stage, there are not many thieves who can avoid my perception. Considering what happened in the Lost Border, I almost immediately thought of the existence of Ashes, so I was already on guard.

If Huijin launched a sneak attack during the fight between him and Zunwang Rangyi, he might still have some chance, but it seems that the other party still has some pride of his own.

Ashes gave me a complicated look, then retreated and disappeared into the forest.

At the same time, a message popped up in his communication column.

"Next time, let's see who's better."

"It's a headache."

I stuck out my tongue, turned off the communication, and returned to the battlefield outside the base with Ahri.

Chapter 111: Wenren Shanshui's Plan

By the time he arrived there, the situation had clearly turned to Alice's side.

Or perhaps it was for this reason that he summoned Ahri from a distance to his side, cutting off Ashes' intention to chase him.

The ranged professions in the Qiuli, Xingkong Tianti, Mengyi, Makino and other guilds, taking advantage of the terrain, coordinated with the protection and advancement of the front-line professions such as Shuiyan, Luoxue Weiran, Yunqian, etc., and easily crushed the offensive of the Blue Shadow with spell bombardment.

The teams that entered the stronghold and planned to defend it had their rhythm disrupted by the sneak attack by the thieves led by Xishu and Beibei, and fell one by one under the attacks hidden in the shadows.

And when he was fighting against the king and the barbarians.

Other members of the Black Hand Studio, including Chong Kai, Shadow Demon and other members of the Black Gloves, did not flee after seeing the death of Zun Wang Rang Yi, but chose to fight to the end.

The power unleashed by these top players is undoubtedly terrifying, especially since there are several top mages among them.

Although all the members died in the end, Alice also lost 42 people. If it weren't for Shi Guangqian and Yun Xian's timely blessings and group treatment, Jiatang Coffee, Beijiu, Qingyu and others who were fighting with the black gloves might also be in danger.

In the final statistics, Alice lost 55 people, which means that most of the casualties were caused by the Black Hand.

This was the result of a surprise attack.

If we attack the stronghold directly, the consequences can be imagined.

"Sister Qiu Li, you and Sister Shui Yan stay here to defend this stronghold."

I arranged.

Sister Qiu Li nodded, but after pondering for a moment, she couldn't help but ask.

"Xiaotong, if we attack the northern stronghold directly like this, it will probably arouse the suspicion of Blue Shadow. What should we do if Brother Liunian's people are exposed by then?"

As expected of Sister Qiu Li, she considers everything very carefully.

I chuckled and said, "Don't worry, that time won't come."

Sister Qiu Li seemed to understand something and gave me a fierce look.

Together with Sister Shisha and others, I went to activate the stronghold.

After instructing Yiwen and Sister Qingyu to take the thieves and clean up the Blue Shadow members who escaped or hid in the base, I rushed to the forest outside the base, touched Ahri's head, and asked Cecilia.

"How's the trap going?"

"There is still half of the progress left, and the perimeter has been basically arranged."

Cecilia glanced at the messages sent by the mechanical alchemists.

"Okay, let them speed up."

In fact, only one-third of the thieves joined the battle of the stronghold. The rest all followed his instructions and replaced the Blue Shadow traps with Alice's traps outside the stronghold.

If this were not the case, the battle at the stronghold would probably end faster and with fewer casualties.

But in my opinion, the task at hand is more important than the battle in the stronghold.

Although these traps cannot be arranged too complicatedly in a short period of time and most of them are simple in form, the key at this time is efficiency rather than anything else.

"An, did you fight with her just now?"

Cecilia suddenly asked.

The question seemed to be out of context, and it took me a moment to realize that Cecilia should be asking Ashes, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Do you feel anything special?"

"…It seems not. What's wrong?"

I thought about it, and if I had to say it, it seemed to give me a vague feeling of familiarity, but this feeling was too vague.

Cecilia shook her head, as if she was thinking about something.

Although I was a little curious, I didn't pay much attention to it and looked into the distance outside the forest.

"The Blue Shadow team is almost here."

Lost border, eastern stronghold.

After learning that the northern stronghold was attacked by Alice's men.

Wenren Shanshui was shocked, his eyes full of disbelief.

"How could it be so fast!"

If we calculate based on their progress, Alice's men could have rushed to the northern stronghold immediately after occupying the eastern stronghold, and deliberately avoided his team in the middle and took a longer route.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to raid the northern stronghold without them even expecting it.

The problem is obvious.

How did Alice's people determine from the beginning that the defense of the northern stronghold was weak? Even if we regard it as the commander's boldness and carefulness, how can we explain the behavior of deliberately avoiding his team and setting a large number of traps around the eastern stronghold?

There is a traitor in the guild, and the identity of this traitor is not low, or even... there may be several of them.

Wenren Shanshui already had a vague guess in his mind.

But now is not the time to think about catching the traitor, he immediately contacted Qiu Lu.

"Immediately send people to harass the northern stronghold. Don't let Alice's people occupy it easily. I will send reinforcements immediately."

Originally Wenren Shanshui thought that no matter how heavy the casualties were, as long as they could occupy the three strongholds in advance, they would be able to stabilize the situation. However, he did not expect that the northern stronghold would be attacked by Alice.

This is when the plan went terribly awry.

At this moment, it was the Blue Shadow that was trapped in a situation where it only occupied two strongholds.

"I know. I've sent someone over."

Qiu Lu was also very clear about the current situation. Even though he was also surprised that Alice had sneak attacked the rear base, after learning that Alice's team had entered the area near the northern base, he immediately sent 200 of his own people over there.

Although there was a Black Hand Studio guarding there, and from the members below, they learned that Alice had only more than a hundred people.

But judging from the opponent's style of action, they must have sent out top players.

The people guarding the northern stronghold will definitely not be able to hold out for long.

The advantage of the central stronghold in mobilizing manpower is obvious. Even if 300 people are sent over for support, only about 500 people will remain inside and outside the stronghold.

But as long as Wenren Shanshui returns in time to reinforce the troops in the central stronghold, they can still make up for the current situation.

"Judgment, you take the people to guard here, I will go to rescue."

Wenren Shanshui said to a thief in a black robe next to him, who was none other than the second act of the Blood Moon, the Killing Intention Judgment.

Killing Intent Judgement frowned, "Can I defend this place with only a hundred people?"

"I have someone set up a group teleportation point here. You and your people will cooperate with the traps set up around you, and you will definitely be able to defend for a while. When I get to the central base and set up the teleportation array, people will naturally come to cooperate with you in the defense."

Wenren Shanshui said.

The group teleportation array, this is the hidden trump card of Blue Shadow.

Wenren Shanshui's plan was to occupy the central stronghold, launch a surprise attack on the eastern stronghold, and then build a teleportation point between the two. This way, he would be able to gain sufficient advantage in the deployment of troops.

Unexpectedly, Alice caught him off guard.

"Okay, be careful."

"Don't worry, those thieves don't dare to provoke us."

Chapter 112: The Attack of Fifty People

The team from Wenren Shanshui left behind a hundred men of Killing Judgment to guard the eastern stronghold.

There are still more than 400 people left. Although many mages, archers and priests were killed in the ultimate trap, those who survived are naturally masters, and their number is at least around 150.

This large group of people was like an iron barrel, and Alice the Thief couldn't cut through it at all.

But just because the thieves have no way out doesn't mean that Alice's other people have no way out.

Just as Wenren Shanshui and the Blue Shadow team were preparing to rush to the central base through the forest path they had just opened up, all kinds of surging spells suddenly swept over from both sides of the path.

Rain of Fire, Frostfall, Great Storm, Dark Explosion...

Various elements were mixed in it, making this path seem like a magic field, and it even had the effect of a group curse. In just a few minutes, nearly thirty people from the Blue Shadow were killed.

Even Wenren Shanshui did not expect that the group of Alice wizards who originally stayed in the eastern stronghold did not leave after using the teleportation scroll, but hid in the forests on both sides of the path and launched a thunder-like sneak attack on them.

But when they reacted and organized a team of mages to defend, the other side quickly retreated.

"these people……"

Wenren Shanshui suddenly had a very ominous premonition.

Sure enough, just as they were about to set off again, the mages appeared again and interfered with their progress.

Wenren Shanshui has now completely realized that these people are definitely carrying out a unified action in a planned and organized manner, with the purpose of preventing them from passing through the forest smoothly.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Gray Flow used the vision provided by the Eye of Ugall to direct the actions of the mage group, while he also cast a group curse on the weak points of the Blue Shadow.

And with the group blessing bestowed by the gray floating light, several earth mages such as Flowers in the Mist used earth magic to build a high platform.

The members of the Mage Corps not only have doubled damage, but also have an advantage in field of vision. With proper command, each spell can be stacked together over the largest range. Even the front-line professions in the Blue Shadow cannot withstand it.

What's more, most of the members of these mage groups are elite mages like Ning Youyou, Mu Shui, Zhijiansha and Luoxue Weiran who have trained in the Mage Tower.

When the Blue Shadow wanted to organize a team to counterattack, Gray Flowing Years was able to obtain intelligence in time and quickly command the mage group to retreat.

If the people of Blue Shadow dare to pursue the past, the traps set in the forest will teach them a profound lesson.

And it's not just the Mage Corps. The thieves hiding in the forest are also ready to move. Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the Mage Corps' bombing, they are launching sneak attacks on the Blue Shadow members on the periphery.

Ye Yuan, Posa, Qing Mingyue, Eiceng Chanmian and others are all top thieves, so they are naturally ruthless. Even shield warriors and knights cannot survive when facing two or three thieves attacking at the same time, and they are cut down step by step.

Wenren Shanshui looked at the endless forest in the distance with a gloomy expression.

"Return to the base and don't let them succeed."
