Chapter 350: Chapter 326: The Melee Begins at the Bell Tower_2

The answer was so simple! For a moment, Fleeting Blossom felt a mix of laughter and tears, once again realizing that she was not adept at leading troops in combat on the fly. Although she didn’t know why the foreign players were retreating, opportunity knocks but once, so Fleeting Blossom immediately led all her remaining troops towards those two houses.

The Pirate Alliance players were completely baffled as they watched this Chinese player braving the rain of arrows to mobilize her troops, one after another.

Sometimes, in the eyes of professional players, what newbie players are thinking is something they could never guess.

However, Fleeting Blossom now had a breather and also formed a mutual watch over the situation with the Bell Tower. Although she lost more than 1000 troops, the key was that her main force of 100 Longbowmen was preserved—they had a lot of health. What delighted Fleeting Blossom even more was that the doors of these two houses faced directly down a long street, with troops on the street completely within range of her Longbowmen!

"Old lady is going to shoot you all dead!" Since the start of the game, Fleeting Blossom’s long-suppressed grievances suddenly erupted, followed by a loud thud of the bow, and a round of arrows whistling out!

—Longbowman: Attack 14, Defense 6, Damage 4-17, Health 40, Attack Speed: 6, Move Speed 10, Command Value 3, Special Skills: Arrow Rain, Long-range Shooting.

Longbowmen, originating from England, made notable contributions against French heavy cavalry during the Hundred Years’ War, with a maximum range of up to 400 meters in high wind conditions—equal to the effective range of modern rifles. In the era of cold weapons, having such an astonishing range was truly fearsome. Equally, the training of Longbowmen was extremely strict, requiring high standards for the bow’s material, the archer’s height, and arm strength.

Having fought for a hundred years, the national power of both Britain and France was severely weakened, causing them to fall far behind the emerging maritime nations of Spain and Portugal with the advent of the Age of Discovery. In the early days of the maritime era without large ships and cannons, Britain was heavily reliant on Longbowmen in naval battles.

In the game, this unit is positioned as a Level 4 special soldier of the Human Race. Compared to the Elf Clan’s Secret Archers, Longbowmen are much more straightforward—long range and strong power, don’t even think about accuracy at longer distances. Thus, the Longbowmen’s regular tactic is Arrow Rain, compensating for lack of precision with a dense barrage of arrows. Likewise, Longbowmen also serve as quite impressive escort units on medium ships, exerting significant deterrent effects against pirates.

...

The sudden long-range Arrow Rain alarmed the Pirate Alliance. Was Da Fei directing this Chinese player on how to garrison? But weren’t they just fighting each other a moment ago? Although they still didn’t understand what exactly was going on between Da Fei and this Chinese player, the appearance of special soldiers made attacking the Bell Tower seem very difficult! Especially with a Ghost Dragon perched on the rooftop!

To attack or not to attack?

In a tournament setting, this wouldn’t even be a question. But if it resulted in huge casualties to take it down, could they hold it? College students didn’t believe in the reliability of this joint effort at all. Once the Chinese player was eliminated, what remained would undoubtedly be a free-for-all skirmish among countries, right?

While hesitating, the troops of two Indian players suddenly appeared in the rear of the battlefield. Just as expected! Indians wouldn’t follow Japanese commands. And with two showing up, they definitely weren’t just passing by; they must have had an agenda!

The members of the Pirate Alliance immediately started an urgent discussion.

"Emperor Avishenruo" Castro chuckled, "Friends, we probably can’t easily take down this Bell Tower now. What should we do?"

"Flying Dutchman" Kluiv laughed, "Even if the Indian players hadn’t appeared, we couldn’t have easily taken it down, right? What’s the difference?"

"Invincible Fleet Philip II" Sebastian smiled faintly, "There’s still a big difference. After all, for us who aim to drift at sea, the territory could be temporarily irrelevant. So the Bell Tower Blueprints are also temporarily irrelevant, but the Indians are different—they have big ambitions."

"Emperor Avishenruo" Castro laughed, "I think this is a great opportunity!"

"Philip II" joked, "A great opportunity to disrupt the alliance’s order?"

"Dutchman" laughed heartily, "Exactly! Indians don’t respect Japanese, their likelihood of disrupting this alliance order is huge; this saves us the trouble of causing the disturbance ourselves!"

"Sultan" also laughed heartily: "Very well! By challenging the Indians and forcing them to declare war, let the Indians bear the international responsibility for breaking the alliance!"

The friends laughed heartily: "Let the alliance go to hell!"

...

Ruins sewer.

With the treasure radar’s search, Da Fei’s quest for the BOSS yielded results again, this time it’s bats! Countless bats densely hanging upside down from the sewer ceiling! Indeed, such things are always found in sewers. Compared to cockroaches and rats, what’s the difference? According to the usual game design, isn’t it just an extra Bloodsucking Skill?

But that’s provided you can get close enough!

—System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Serbia has unleashed the Master-level Light Magic "Storm Attack"!

The fierce storm once again wreaked havoc in the sewer, numerous bats were tossed about in the wind, smashing against the walls and squashing into a bloody mess!

Indeed, these were small creatures, unable to withstand a Grandmaster’s Divine Skill! Of course, it’s mainly because of the 100% chance of triggering the "Broken Wings" special skill that made the Storm Attack so effective. Otherwise, a normal Storm Attack wouldn’t be this potent.

Da Fei couldn’t help but marvel at the miraculous power of this Divine Artifact. That Angel Brother even solemnly swore that this Gold Coin is a curse and shouldn’t be used next time. Well, isn’t it being used just fine now? But that’s only for now, to be honest, I’m so badass, I’m scared of myself!

Looking at the bats scattered all over the floor, Da Fei didn’t let his guard down: Come on, it won’t be this simple, bring on your annoying diseases, I’ll take them all with a smile!

Just then, those bats that were still twitching on the ground suddenly rallied, converged in the air, a flash of blood, and a giant, wobbly bat appeared!

Da Fei’s eyelids twitched, there really was a trick up their sleeve! So this is the BOSS! A vampire, huh? But this BOSS seems to be in bad condition, I’ll strike while you’re down!

—Boom! Arrows, Magic Bullets, Flame Chains once again created a fiery barrage, and the giant bat that had just formed and hadn’t had the chance to flap its wings exploded violently!

—System Prompt: Congratulations! You have defeated the Giant Bat Bloodsucker, you receive Hero’s Proof +1, and acquire the competition item "Blood-sucking Tooth".

—Blood-sucking Tooth: Using this, the entire army’s Life Limit increases by 15%, and there’s a certain chance that the troops will gain 20% Bloodsucking effect during an attack. Lasts for 1 day in-game. Competition items can only be used in the current competition.

—System Prompt: You have received competition prize money +150,000 Gold Coins, and competition reward "Life Book" +1. The competition rewards will be issued to your account’s mailbox on the server after the competition ends.

Da Fei laughed heartily! Just as expected, a Divine Wand delivered! In front of me, any "certain chance" stuff, don’t even mention it! Now I too can play a vampire! I’ve always wanted to ask Boss Ma how fun it is to play a Bloodsucking Orc, well, now it’s my turn to enjoy it!

But now, the troops’ Stamina is nearly dropping below 50%, why hasn’t that cockroach died yet? It couldn’t have a self-healing ability, could it? No, can’t fight anymore, that’s enough, already have the Bloodsucking Skill, what kind of ultimate BOSS could even stop me? Let’s head back and get ready to take on the ultimate BOSS!

Meanwhile, at the other end of the sewer, Lee Min-ho, who was tracking, looking at the still unrefreshed pile of rat corpses felt a huge shock.

This tracking all the way, Da Fei’s footprints in the dark did not wander, steadily moving forward, quickly ending two battles, as if he knows the map, knows the strategy? Is this the level of an amateur player? No wonder those few who always put on airs begged me to come, this is a formidable enemy! I must defeat him with all my might! (To be continued.
