Chapter 229: Hiding (5th Day of the Lunar New Year)
System: The current number of hunters is: 291921, the number of reindeer is 970, and the number of reindeer dumb is 3
1 hour and 6 minutes after the event began, Lin Yue had already changed his hiding place at this time, and there was still a commotion outside, and the shouts and screams could be heard everywhere in the entire Holy Emblem City.
Just now, Lin Yue opened the information interface of the Christmas event and took a look, and found that 18 people had died on the player's side, although the hunter's side was even worse, hanging nearly 10,000 people, but Lin Yue knew that the scale began to tilt to the other side, and the advantage that originally belonged to the player soon disappeared.
"Someone is dead again......" Mo Yan, who was also staring at the information interface, suddenly shouted, only to see that the number of reindeer suddenly changed from 970 to 969.
"I'm afraid that the three major boss groups of the Saint Emblem City's guards, the Dark Cult and the Light Knights have already begun to act, otherwise with the strength of those residents of the Holy Emblem City, it would be impossible to kill us artifact holders." Lin Yue groaned.
"So what do we do?" Mo Yan said anxiously, now he has completed the idea of not going out to hunt hunters.
"To be honest, whether it's the Guards, the Dark Order, or the Knights of Light, it's a dead end for us to run into any of them." Lin Yue said bluntly.
"Even Brother Tuhao, you say this, can we only wait for death? It's almost 47 hours before the end of the event, and 19 people have died so quickly, so I guess it won't be our turn soon. Mo Yan said pessimistically.
Lin Yue touched his chin and said, "This Christmas event is called Dumb Peek-a-boo, since it's hide-a-boo, of course it's best for us to hide." ”
"Hide?"
Lin Yue looked in the direction of the city and muttered to himself, "Fortunately, this city is big enough, if it is hide and seek, it should be beneficial to us players." ”
On the other hand, many players who killed NPCs in the city and killed red-eyed players began to notice the addition of the Holy Emblem City Guard, the Dark Order, and the Knights of Light.
These high-level NPCs are not only extremely high-level, but also have the lowest rank of at least elite-level, which can be regarded as a world boss when placed in the wild.
Although the strength of the artifact holder is higher than that of the average player, the ability of each person's artifact is also uneven, and it is not so easy for some guys with poor strength to win even if they face the previous guard member one-on-one.
What's more, the number of garrisons of the Guards in the Holy Emblem City is still three times as many as the players participating in this Christmas event.
"Dada!"
Nearly 2,000 guards galloped through the streets on horseback, and when they saw the players slaughtering NPCs, they immediately took action, they received orders that there were murderous heretics in the city, so they could kill players on the spot.
"Poof!"
A female mage who was a slower runner was chased by a member of the guard on horseback when she ran out of MP, and was finally slashed to death, and her body exploded with it, becoming the 20th victim.
"The wind is howling!"
The rest of the players saw that the situation was not right and immediately led the man to run, but he did not take two steps before he was caught up by an NPC riding a wolf, who was an orc with an iron rod in his hand and smashed it on the man's head.
"Bang!"
It was as if a watermelon had burst, and the man's head was smashed directly, and the headless corpse ran a few steps forward, and one fell to the ground.
Aruru - Wolf Knight (Leader), LV?? ,HP:?? ,MP:??
"Commander boss?" Seeing the level and rank information on the orc's head, the players' faces turned pale.
The orc NPC shook the brains and blood on the iron rod, stared at the trembling players and sneered: "The beast god is above, I am the wolf warrior Aruru, heretics give me death!" ”
As more and more people were discharged from the Holy Emblem City Guards, the original situation of players slaughtering NPCs was gradually stopped, and players gradually understood that this Christmas event was just the beginning.
System: As the number of residents of the city reaches 10,000, the battle of all NPCs in the city increases by 10%.
"Rub."
Seeing this new system announcement, the players in the city almost raised their middle fingers, and those ordinary residents of Holy Emblem City are not bad, and the combat power of the five scum has increased by 10%, but those guards, the Dark Order and the NPCs of the Knights of Light are different, their combat effectiveness is already very amazing, once it rises by 10%, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with.
What's worse is that, judging from the new system announcement just now, if the number of deaths of the residents of Holy Emblem City reaches a certain number, all NPCs in Holy Emblem City will receive corresponding buffs, and their combat power will continue to rise.
Lin Yue, who was hiding somewhere, naturally also saw this new system announcement, and showed a headache expression at the moment, it seems that things are far more troublesome than imagined.
2 hours after the start of the Christmas event.
Players who had been hunting the inhabitants of Emblem City began to hide from the growing number of guards, members of the Dark Order and the Knights of Light.
3 hours after the start of the Christmas event.
The remaining 200,000 NPCs in the Holy Emblem City formed an armed army, shouting the slogan of "Kill the heretics to avenge the innocent victims" everywhere to capture the players who were hiding, and for a while, the balance was completely broken, and the players became rats crossing the street, occasionally resisting, and were soon surrounded and killed by the guards who rushed to the scene.
4 hours after the start of the Christmas event.
The death toll of players participating in this Christmas event reached 55.
……
"This way, quick!" A head poked out from behind a wall to identify which NPCs were going far, and immediately whispered to his companions behind him.
Now that it was dark and the Holy Emblem City was shrouded in night, players who had been hiding everywhere could finally breathe a sigh of relief for a while, and then the cover of the night changed their hiding position.
"Ah, huhu, I can't do it."
The group moved quickly along the base of the wall, but one of the dwarf players at the end suddenly stopped, although there is no physical setting in the game, but since the server closed last night, they have been online for more than 24 hours (referring to real time), and their spirits are extremely tense, plus they have not been able to sleep for a long time, and their energy consumption is almost the same.
"Can't stop, run!"
Seeing that the dwarven player stopped, the two people walking in front also stopped, looking very anxious.
"You...... You guys go first, I really can't do it, I haven't closed my eyes for a long time, and I'm so desperate, I guess my body in reality is starting to be unbearable. ”
The dwarven player looked tired and simply sat down.
"Idiot, you want to die!" Among the two, the orc player who had just been in charge of watching the wind came over and grabbed him, trying to pull him up, but at this moment, a sudden wave of footsteps came from behind them.
"Anyone?"
Hearing the voice, the three of them held their breath almost at the same time, staring nervously at the direction where the footsteps came from, now the NPCs of the entire Holy Emblem City are looking for these "heretics", no matter who discovers them, it will definitely attract more people to hunt them down, and it will basically be a dead end when the time comes.
"Brother Tuhao, there are people here, it seems to be a player!"
Just as the three of them pondered whether to force a breakthrough, two people suddenly walked out of the other side, and one of them was talking to the other.
