Quadruple split
Chapter 330 Situation
Game time PM19:33
Kudami Plain, joint forces station, command tent
"Okay, let everyone withdraw as planned."
Mo Tan stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on a certain chess piece in front of him, extinguished the light red light on it and whispered: "This way, there will be no worries for the time being..."
Yuying, who was sitting not far away, nodded slightly: "I understand, the next round of teams will set off in twenty minutes. If you don't plan to command them directly, just conduct a small-scale reconnaissance in the northern part of the Snow Bamboo Forest as originally planned. is that OK?"
"No, the next two rounds of operations today are temporarily cancelled." Mo Tan shook his head and dismissed the plan he had prepared before. He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, and said softly: "Except for players who want to lose their mission contribution points, they will keep vigil." With the exception of others, let all members of the combat order rest."
Yu Ying sighed softly, and did not say a few words casually like before. She just quickly opened the message board and told several heralds about Mo Tan's arrangements just now. The latter were all weak or simply incompetent. Because the players were basically unable to play a role in most tasks, they took on the responsibility of running errands and spreading the word, creating value in this regional event in another way.
After passing on the order, Yu Ying glanced at Mo Tan who was in a sleepy state with some hesitation, and said hesitantly: "There has been no news from Cordoba since the afternoon. He..."
"He just told me the situation."
Mo Tan opened his eyes and looked at a certain place on the map with some confusion, staring at the two lines above that read, 'Fair City, a medium-sized city with a permanent population of about 13,000, is rich in seventeen kinds of low-level alchemy potions. The essential materials - red silkworm leaves, medicinal leeches' in curly script, murmured with a pale face: "Because the infected people were not isolated in time, they were destroyed within two days after the mutation broke out, and the survivor... one person... …”
The girl who had just walked into the tent suddenly covered her mouth. Her tired eyes looked at Mo Tan in shock. Her legs, which were already trembling due to exhaustion, softened and she stumbled from the doorway. Come in.
Yuying suddenly stood up and wanted to run over to help Yuchen who was about to fall to the ground, but the other person was faster than her——
"Laws and Orders Obstacle."
Mo Tan opened his tightly clenched right hand and made a lifting gesture to Yuchen in the air. Then he saw the girl's body, which had obviously lost its center of gravity, stagnated slightly in mid-air, and was then lifted up. Yu Ying jumped to her side and hugged her.
The latter glanced back at Mo Tan: "What kind of sorcery are you doing?"
Mo Tan lowered his hands with a wry smile and didn't explain much. He really didn't have the leisure at the moment, and he knew very well that Yu Ying just complained subconsciously, and his mood was not necessarily any better than his own, although the latter After receiving the news from Cordoba, he had already guessed the ending, and even proactively reminded the other party to give up the search and rescue operation, but that was just a forced composure. After the news that tens of thousands of people were killed in Fair City was confirmed, this The self-proclaimed female assassin who had no feelings was also extremely shaken, otherwise she would not have been so slow when she went to help Yuchen...
It was just a piece of news, but the fact that tens of thousands of living lives were simply labeled with a cold label of 'destroyed within two days, leaving only one survivor' was too hard to accept. If it had been a month or two, The few people sitting here may not have any real feelings yet, but how could they, who have been working hard in Misha County during this period, not be touched at this time.
After witnessing those suffering from the plague kneeling down and cheering around Yuchen...
After personally saving dozens or hundreds of lives that were driven to death by those mutants...
After personally experiencing countless tragedies of eternal separation between heaven and man, and white-haired people sending black-haired people away...
Suddenly learning that tens of thousands of lives that were no different from those people had disappeared in just two days, no one could remain calm.
What's worse is that several people who have witnessed the killings of those mutants can even imagine the hellish scene.
"Feel sorry……"
As the effect of [Law Barrier] faded, Yuchen, who had lost her restraint, raised her little head that was leaning on Yu Ying's shoulder. She barely stood up and her face was still lack of color. She hesitated for a few seconds before rushing forward. The person asked in a low voice: "What were you talking about just now?"
Yu Ying winked at Mo Tan and gave the other party the right to explain.
"Some unpleasant information." The latter stood up, gave up his chair to Yuchen, leaned against the long table in silence for a while, and then said slowly: "Go to Cordoba to investigate the situation in the south. News came back that Fair City, located in the middle of the southern border, was destroyed. More than 10,000 people in the city died or were transformed into mutants. Only one child who was protected by the Church of Justice survived. When Cordoba took the child After leaving the city, the area filled with countless resentments and blasphemy was immediately transformed into a cursed place..."
Mo Tan gave an overview of the information that Cordoba had just sent a few minutes ago, and then tilted his head uneasily and stared at Yu Chen's increasingly pale face, his anxiety palpable.
Although he has already deeply realized how strong the seemingly timid and weak girl next to him is, he is still subconsciously worried about whether the other party can bear this terrible news, even though everyone knows that those NPCs are just a bunch of data in theory, even though Those victims were not relatives or strangers to everyone present. Although they were one dimension apart, Mo Tan dared to guarantee everything he had. During this period, he was working hard to save more people every day. Yuchen, who works hard with many people, will never care about those things, so...
"I see."
Yuchen's lowered eyes were a little red, and her soft and melodious voice was a little trembling, but she still raised her head after a few seconds and showed a reluctant smile: "Don't worry, is there anything I can do? "
Mo Tan didn't know what the other party meant by 'don't worry', but he was inexplicably relieved under the girl's warm and trusting gaze, then shook his head and said: "You have worked hard enough, everyone has worked hard enough. Everyone in this station has been doing what they should do, but there are some things that we cannot stop and cannot avoid."
"Damn it." Yu Ying stomped her feet angrily and said angrily: "Aren't there many super powerful and super powerful bosses in this world? Why can't you see any of them at this time! What kind of sword masters or magic gods are there? Oh, let’s not talk about it, are all the strong men of the second, second, and third levels also dead?! Only one person survived out of more than 10,000 people, you’re not joking like that!”
Mo Tan sighed: "Do you think this is weird?"
Yuying's eyes widened: "Isn't this weird enough?"
Yuchen also whispered uncomfortably: "I also have this idea... although I can barely be regarded as a, uh... main member of the Holy Religion Alliance now."
"In fact, this is not surprising at all." Mo Tan explained while looking at the map on the table thoughtfully: "First of all, you need to know that Misha County is, to a certain extent, a place without The countryside without any affiliation has no direct relationship with the surrounding major forces, even though it is very close to the Fire Claw Territory in the northwest of the Violet Empire, very close to the eastern fortress of the Principality of Srilanka, and even more to the north. It is directly adjacent to the Holy Land, but it does not belong to any of the above three. Therefore, the major forces are not obliged to help Misha County survive this disaster. Of course, for humanitarian reasons, they will not completely sit idly by. , but there is no way to predict the specific intensity. The Violet Empire has not been able to handle its own affairs. Although the Principality of Scaran was kind enough to use its official power to help establish a blockade in the eastern border of Misha County, it also sent a large amount of money into it. Supplies, but in the final analysis, it is because of the fear that the plague here will spread. However, the Holy Church Alliance is quite powerful. The two saints plus five hundred low-level paladins are indeed a considerable force, especially Yu Chen. Now I have mastered the skills that can dispel the plague on a large scale. To be honest, if those mutants hadn't suddenly appeared, maybe the problem would have been solved long ago."
Yuchen frowned slightly and whispered: "But we don't have the power to reverse the situation..."
"No, the power to reverse the situation actually exists, or should be said to have 'used to be'." Mo Tan smiled bitterly, shook his head, spread his hands and said: "Leaving you aside, our senior saintly lady is worthy of her name. Xia Lian once told me that if she were still in her prime, she would be able to kill all the mutants in Misha County just by bombarding her with divine magic. As for the five hundred low-level saints, The fundamental purpose of a knight is actually to protect you, and Xia Lian alone is enough in terms of combat effectiveness."
Yu Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Then let's just blast her away. If she is really as strong as you say, she shouldn't even have to worry about being slightly injured..."
"No, there is a problem." Mo Tan interrupted the former's complaint and said seriously: "She was not slightly injured, but was hit head-on by the dark divine power. She is almost completely unable to use magic. You understand what this means. What are you wearing?"
Yu Ying thought about it and asked tentatively: "Does this mean she can only hit people with a stick?"
"Ah, that..."
Yuchen raised his hand timidly and reminded him sarcastically, "That's a cross."
The two looked at each other and showed an extremely forced smile in unison. It was obvious that both girls were trying very hard to adjust the overly depressing atmosphere, but they had little effect. After all, the south was a dead place. Tens of thousands of people were killed, which was several times more than the total number of survivors they had rescued during this period. Facing this extremely heavy reality, the vast majority of people could not help but doubt themselves and doubt their previous Could everything be just a joke.
Fortunately, these people had a good mentality, and even the self-doubt did not last long.
"Well, as long as you work hard, it'll be fine. That's how it's done in cartoons."
Yu Ying said something without thinking.
"It's good to be able to help one more person. There are still many things we can do."
Yuchen lightly waved his fist and said in an equally confused manner: "At least we can't let other innocent people suffer the same fate."
Mo Tan looked at the two people in front of him dumbfounded: "Are you trying to comfort me?"
Yu Ying nodded: "Yes, yes, if the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. I have to cheer you up, a big guy with tall brackets that is not a physical person, so that you can complete the mission."
Yuchen nodded: "Mo Tan, please be more open-minded, your expression is too ugly..."
"I was just thinking about something."
Mo Tan, who had poor psychological quality and had just used self-hypnosis to calm down, laughed dryly. He was completely unaware of how ugly his face was before. After explaining in an understatement, he continued to explain to Yu Ying. : "Let's put it this way, Xia Lian who can't use magic is equivalent to those magicians in other games who have luxurious equipment, capped levels, and superb skills but can't cast spells. Do you understand?"
Yu Ying was stunned for a moment: "Are you sure you are a magician who can't cast spells and not a berserker who can't cast spells? She beat up that fierce-looking Cordoba before! He's ranked second in the battle rankings !”
"A level 100 mage can kill a level 20 wild boar even with a staff." Mo Tan gave an example that was not very appropriate and continued: "So strictly speaking, the support provided by the Holy Alliance this time is enough. It is said to be quite powerful. As for other aspects of power, as I said before, Misha County is just a rural area where no one cares. Although there are neutral organizations such as the Mage Guild and the Adventurer Guild, the permanent staff are not The combat power is not too high. Those with ambition and strength have already gone elsewhere to develop. Those without strength and qualifications have countless better choices. In addition, the blockade also needs a large number of manpower, so this situation is really It’s normal.”
Yuchen lowered his shoulders in frustration and whispered: "But even if the saint sister is injured, there are still many powerful people in the Holy Religion Union. I have met a few of those senior divine followers from other sects before. , if they had been allowed to come over and help a little bit, so many people might not have died."
"This is easy to explain." Mo Tan rubbed his forehead and shrugged helplessly: "They don't need to come when Xia Lian is not injured. After Xia Lian's side was attacked by divine power, they should not come. ”
Yuchen blinked in confusion: "Why?"
"Think about it, a powerful saint has fallen here."
Mo Tan patted the map of Misha County in front of Yuchen and said in a deep voice: "Then it will definitely be fine if others come here? Besides, Misha County does not belong to the Holy Land. To put it harshly, it does not have the qualifications to be worth letting go. The capital of the strong men who come to risk rescue, what if they run over to help and are attacked by the Dark Goddess like Xia Lian?"
"Wow, is this so realistic..."
Yuchen let out a cry like a small animal.
"yes."
Mo Tan nodded, then picked up a quill and drew a big red circle somewhere on the map. He narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: "So in a small place like this, we'd better count on little people like us..."
