Ninety-three, Battle of Giant Wood Canyon
After all the players received the mission, Su Yu led them towards the entrance of the palace.
Arriving at the palace gate, Su Yu asked the players to wait here while he followed Kelderon into the palace alone.
"Kelderon, how are the preparations for Her Royal Highness's travel convoy?" Su Yu asked Kelderon on the way to the main hall.
Kelderon looked respectful: "Master Nemesis, the convoy is ready and will set off soon."
"Yes." Su Yu nodded slightly and said no more.
…
A few minutes later, five luxuriously decorated carriages bearing royal emblems quickly drove out from the side entrance of the palace.
Following the five carriages, there was also a hundred-man imperial guard force.
Among these five carriages, the first carriage led by Hill, the minister in charge of negotiating foreign affairs;
The second one is sitting in the seventh-level dark priest Xifan;
The third car in the middle is of course the Royal Princess’ car;
The two cars at the back contained groceries and supplies.
This time the princess traveled in a light carriage and returned quickly, so her 100-man personal guard was also equipped with horses and seven days of food and water.
Su Yu and the princess sat on the third carriage together.
After the convoy left the palace, he posted a message in the chat room and asked the nine presidents to lead the players to follow.
The presidents quickly informed the players present.
Everyone summoned their mounts one after another and followed the royal convoy.
A small part of these mounts come from hidden missions in the Novice Village, and the rest are ordinary horses rented or purchased from stables in the city.
Moreover, the people present were all high-level players, and they all knew the importance of mounts. They got one as soon as they entered the city, and there was no one who didn't have a mount.
The princess's motorcade led the way, followed by nearly a thousand players, and a group of people marched toward the North City Gate in a mighty manner.
...
Su Yu sat on the third carriage, face to face with the princess.
Of course the players also saw him and couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
"You see, the nemesis boss is sitting on the carriage, having close contact with Princess Lolita. We can only follow behind from a distance. Princess Lolita doesn't even look at us!"
"Well, who says it isn't?"
"Be content! According to the description of the scenario battle, we are 'assisting the nemesis.' Maybe in the eyes of the NPC, we are just insignificant weeds brought by the nemesis."
"Without the word 'maybe', we are just irrelevant weeds."
"Don't think about that, wait until you perform well in the scene battle. Maybe you will be noticed by the NPC present and given some hidden tasks."
The players were chatting in the background while rushing on their way.
At the same time, the princess was also chatting with Su Yu.
"This group of adventurers you recruited are quite energetic."
Princess Alijie turned back to look at the group of otherworldly adventurers behind her.
This group of adventurers are all at the top of the first level, and their equipment and aura are good. There are nearly a thousand people in total, and together they can be considered a considerable force.
"The nemesis must have spent a lot of money to recruit them, right? Now is a time of trouble, and it is rare to have such loyal ministers." The princess thought to herself.
"Ding! [Prince Alijie]'s favorability towards you +1."
After all, Su Yu had experienced a surge in Tina's favorability by dozens of points, and this level of favorability could no longer make him feel uneasy.
Su Yu's expression remained unchanged and he said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, according to the revelation I got from the horoscope last night, Duke Lantilus's men will pretend to be bandits and attack your convoy."
"Lantilus? How dare he? Don't you know that there is Master Xifan in my convoy?"
"What if they send someone to contain Xi Fan?" Su Yu looked into the princess's eyes.
"this....."
The princess' expression became serious: "Where will those rebels attack us?"
"Giant Wood Canyon, Your Highness."
...
After 20 minutes of player time, Giant Wood Canyon.
"Everyone, get ready! We have arrived at the Giant Wood Canyon." The snow leopard shouted loudly.
At the same time, in the chat room, the presidents are also making final arrangements.
Now the entire player team has formed a circular formation, with the tank class walking on the outermost edge of the team, and assassins and damage-dealing warriors mixed in among them.
Archers and magicians stand on the outer layer, protecting the fragile healing profession on the innermost layer.
The Red-Eyed Black Dragon was also very ambitious at this time. He said in the chat room: "This is the first battle for our players under the eyes of the NPC! We must play well and not let the NPC look down upon us!"
Cloud Shepherd: "NPC? It's just a bunch of data. If you take it seriously, you will lose."
Snow Leopard: "No, no, they are not just a bunch of data. You have to listen more, read more, and observe more, and then make conclusions."
Yunzhong Mu En: "Is this... like this?"
Of course Yunzhong Mu En knows what kind of organization Snow Leopard's "relevant departments" are. After all, you can feel the iron-blooded military temperament when you get along with them. Anyone who is not a fool knows what they do.
Hearing what Snow Leopard said, the enemy in the cloud immediately believed 80% of it.
Could it be...that this game still hides some big secret?
...
Just as he was thinking, the Royal Princess's motorcade had entered the Giant Wood Canyon.
Suddenly, there were killing sounds on the hillsides on both sides!
kill!
Kill!
Countless regular troops disguised as bandits rushed down the slopes on both sides of the canyon.
At the same time, layers of range spells appeared in the sky above the convoy. If all these spells are allowed to be smashed down, the convoy will definitely be smashed to pieces in an instant.
Of course Xifan was prepared.
"[Shadow Canopy]!"
With a slight wave of the dark purple staff in his hand, the sixth-level defensive spell [Shadow Canopy] was released!
The [Shadow Canopy] expanded to nearly a hundred meters in diameter in an instant, encompassing the entire convoy.
The area magic in the sky that fell on the [Shadow Canopy] was quickly offset, without even a single magic ripple being created.
At this time.
"Xi Fan, your opponent is me!"
A dazzling holy light flew down from the clouds, looking for Shuyuan www.zhaｏshuyuａ. com hit the peak at the top of the canyon, smashing half of the peak into pieces.
In the aftermath of the collision, a female paladin wearing golden armor raised her two-handed sword high and pointed at Sivan with the tip of the sword.
"Haha, I thought it was you. It turned out to be you, Madeline!"
Xifan turned into a black shadow and flew towards Madeline. Two figures, one golden and one black, collided in the sky, releasing a series of deafening explosions.
At the same time, players moved quickly to protect the entire convoy in the middle.
It's still the same circular formation formed just now, with the tank profession outside and the long-range profession and treatment profession included.
Although [Shadow Canopy] can resist magical attacks, it cannot prevent physical intrusion.
The "bandits" stepped into the shadow sky one after another and launched attacks on the players inside.
Hey!
The tanks rushed forward one by one, resisting the bandits' impact with their solid bodies.
The magicians and archers, under the command of each guild leader, used AOE to smash AOE, and focused fire to kill the bandits without AOE.
The healing profession also raised its staff, and beams of healing light shot out, scattering on the injured players in the front row.
The strength of the bandits is not high either. Ordinary bandits are only around level 10-20, and they are quickly killed by the focused fire attacks of the players.
There are also bandits above level 30 or even level 50. After killing a group of players instantly, they rush into the hinterland of the lineup and fight with the Royal Guards.
The killed player waited patiently for a minute, then immediately resurrected next to Su Yu and entered the battle again.
With the cooperation of the players, and the instructions issued at all levels after communication through the president's chat room, nearly a thousand players were well organized and easily resisted the bandits' offensive.
