Chapter 169 Departure

"The top professionals who are coming to support us now are basically from the province."

"If you want to reach Maoyue further away, you have to pass through the provincial capital teleportation array."

In the temporarily established command post in Moyue City, some professionals from local big families and big guilds were all present.

The person who was speaking was the head of the Maoyue City Defense Department. He looked around at everyone present and gritted his teeth and said: "The Nine Gods Sect is advancing towards the teleportation array, and there is a wild boss suddenly coming around. This is obviously... It will cut off our retreat and delay the speed of support.”

He waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "We can't delay it any longer."

"What do you think?" the representative of the local family asked: "This is a wartime standard. The highest person in charge of the scene is you. No matter what the task is, just say it."

The head of the city defense department gritted his teeth, moved his hands in the air, unfolded the light curtain, and displayed the Maoyue map.

Right now, red alerts were flashing everywhere on Mogetsu's map, and they were spreading outward at an alarming rate.

The appearance of the wild boss caught them off guard. The power reserved in the city was already stretched thin just to deal with so many wild bosses above level 100.

In addition, members of the Nine Gods Sect rushed into the city, broke it into pieces, and carried out destruction and massacre everywhere.

The situation is already on the verge of collapse.

If the wartime alarm hadn't been raised quickly, the recruitment order was activated, and a group of relatively close fifth-level professionals arrived in time to slightly stabilize the situation, they would have been killed in pieces by now.

Seeing the increasing number of red alerts on the map, many people showed unbearable expressions.

Each red alert area represents the death of countless residents, either at the hands of the boss or massacred by members of the Nine Gods Cult.

The person in charge of a big guild almost growled: "Hurry up and make a decision! If you really have no idea, don't waste time! Let us organize the rescue on our own!"

He pointed at the map and cursed: "People die at the hands of the Nine Gods Sect every second. Why are you still hesitating?"

"Now the situation in the city is basically on the verge of collapse. All members of the Public Security Department are mobilized to evacuate the crowd and take low-level professionals to the shelter." The person in charge of the city defense forcibly controlled his voice, but a trace of trembling could still be heard: " You are all representatives of the forces of Moyue City, and the people under your command are already doing the rescue work, right?"

No one said a word.

Of course they had already arranged for their own family members to help.

But they are also high-level professionals themselves. Now that one more high-level professional can contribute, they may be able to save dozens of people.

A certain family representative couldn't bear it and said: "If you have something to say, just say it and don't play charades with us!"

"Call us all here, we're not here to watch you waste your time."

Seeing that everyone was emotionally unstable, the person in charge of the city defense felt relieved but also a little confused.

Fortunately, these guys usually scheming and even fighting for some benefit, which often caused him headaches, but at critical moments, they did not lack the courage to stand up and take charge.

What is tangled is the task he will give to these people next, I am afraid that it will end in a narrow escape.

"The key for us now is not rescue." He didn't hesitate, stretched out his hand and pointed on the light screen, and the picture suddenly changed, and many signs lit up: "Moyue at the moment is like a wooden barrel leaking everywhere. It depends on us, It can’t be made up for.”

"If you can't make up for it, why don't you make it up?" Someone questioned: "The top professionals who came outside to support us are all working hard. Although we are all rank three, the highest is rank four, but one more person will make one more difference." It’s always right, right?”

Before he finished speaking, the speaker looked towards the light screen and his expression suddenly changed.

"This is... a teleportation array?"

He looked hesitant.

Many people saw the marks on the light screen and either pondered, smiled bitterly, or suddenly realized.

I vaguely understood what the person in charge of city defense meant.

The person in charge of city defense said softly: "Now all the high-level professionals in the city are participating in the rescue. Basically, all the top professionals who can rush to Moyue as soon as possible have arrived. To be honest, even if we people also participate, we can make a difference." What's the use? No matter how fast you move, you can't move faster than a top professional. If you encounter people from the Nine Gods Sect, it will just increase the number of casualties. "

"What we lack most right now is time!"

"The recruitment order has been issued, so we must hold on. A large number of top professionals will soon come to support us."

"If the Nine Gods Religion wants to massacre the city and perform a blood sacrifice, it will take time. We must compete with the Nine Gods Religion for this time!"

He pointed at the marked areas: "The teleportation array is the key core!"

"You want us to protect the teleportation array?"

"The Nine Gods Sect has also set its sights on these teleportation formations. Sooner or later they will attack them. How long can we people delay them?"

Many people looked ugly.

They are not simply afraid of death.

But I am afraid that my death will be meaningless and worthless!

It would be laughable for little ones like them to have such a heavy responsibility on their shoulders.

"Let me ask you something." The person in charge of the city defense stared at them, his resolute face full of seriousness: "If you are asked to delay with your life, even if it can only be delayed for one minute, are you willing?"

There was silence for a moment.

After a few seconds, someone in the corner laughed.

Everyone was startled and looked over immediately.

I found out that he was a gentle middle-aged man.

He was from the Maoyue Scholars Guild.

"We auxiliary professions don't have much combat ability, at least I don't. If we can delay for a minute, it will definitely be a profit." He didn't care about the eyes of the crowd, just pushed his glasses and said with a smile: "The problem is how to delay? The members of the Nine Gods Cult who came this time are at least the fourth-turn recipients. Do you have any way to make us immediately match the fourth-turn recipients?"

Most people at the scene were at the third-turn level, and there were also fourth-turn recipients, but not many.

Asking them to fight the fourth-turn recipients is indeed too much.

"There is a way." The head of the city defense department whispered: "The Abyss Research Institute has a new achievement, which has not been deployed on a large scale. Only some are equipped for the pioneer corps."

He waved his hand, and the table in front was piled with thumb-sized black crystals.

"Taking it at a critical moment can overdraw future attributes, including upgrade growth and job transfer growth." He stared at the scholar: "The limit is about level 30, and it is useless above 5th turn. In other words, if you are 3rd turn, you can immediately have attributes comparable to 4th turn, and if you are 4th turn, you can burst to 5th turn! With this attribute blessing, if you work hard again, can you protect the teleportation array?"

The middle-aged scholar smiled silently, stepped forward and grabbed a piece, and half-jokingly said: "If I take a few more, will it be useful?"

The person in charge of the city defense did not speak.

The middle-aged scholar shrugged his shoulders and turned away.

The others looked at each other, and finally stepped forward in silence to take a black crystal stone.

No one communicated, and no one stupidly asked, "So, what's the price? '.

Such a strong effect is still used for the pioneer corps. Needless to say, the price is either death or disability.

And even if there is no price, these people who go to protect the teleportation array are basically in danger.

After everyone had taken the crystals, the last one on the table was picked up by the city defense leader himself. He looked at those people calmly for a few seconds and said calmly: "Everyone..."

"Let's go."
