Virtual World: Close Combat Mage

Linshui City West Gate. Jian Nanyou finally made it here without any danger.

"Is everyone here?" he asked others in the channel.

"We're here..." The other five people responded one after another. Jiannan You stayed in a small alley without walking out. He peeked out and only found the glue pretending to be a stall in the small market on Chengmen Street. When the relationship was low, he often set up small businesses in the small market at the city gate. This was a good time to show off his skills, and he pretended not to raise any suspicion.

As for the other four people, Jian Nanyou scanned around carefully but still couldn't find them. I was so satisfied that I couldn't even recognize myself, let alone those strange guys.

"Da Nan, what should we do now? Rush out?" The person who sent the message asked Huo Ranyi.

"It's a little troublesome. There seem to be a lot more people at the city gate." Dao Xiangmu said.

Jiannan You also quickly discovered this problem. Compared to when he went to the east gate before, everyone was reunited at this time. After such a delay, the number of people under the city gate could be said to have increased dramatically. Before, Jian Nanyou was really planning to gather everyone's strength and charge forward. As long as he killed the opponent cleanly, the opponent would naturally not know where he was going. Jian Nanyou originally had this confidence.

But now the opponent's number has increased sharply. Let alone killing them all, whether they can be killed is still a question.

There was silence in the channel for a while.

"That's good." Glue said, "I'll lure them away, and they'll wait for the opportunity to rush out." "It's better for me to do it. I, the priest, can attract all their attention." Daoxiangmu also spoke.

Everyone was silent. Dao Xiangmu's words are correct. Glue will definitely not be able to attract the opponent's full attention. It is only possible if the priest appears. But the problem is that as an archer, Glue has a speed advantage and has a chance to escape. If the priest is exposed, he will definitely die.

"Then I'll go." No one said anything for a while. Dao Xiangmu has made up his mind. Ready to show up. Jian Nanyou suddenly sent a message: "No one should go."

"What?" Dao Xiangmu was confused. Jian Nanyou has never been an emotional person.

"It's useless to lead you. You will be killed if you step out. How many steps can you run out?" Jian Nanyou said.

Dao Xiangmu thought it was true. How can a person without speed lure his opponent away? He didn't take two steps before he was caught up and killed.

"What should we do?" one person asked.

"Listen to me!" Jian Nanyou already had a plan in mind.

"What a great idea!!!" After Jian Nanyou finished speaking, everyone was in awe.

Under the west city gate, people from more than a dozen guilds in Linshui City gathered. Everyone is a team with perfect professional equipment, all trying to occupy the best position under the city gate. The auras were very different, and they looked at each other with fire in their eyes. They are waiting for the outcome of the negotiation between the presidents at the Priest College. Once they disagree, the place will immediately become a battlefield. Every team is preparing for war at this time, figuring out what measures they should take once the fight begins.

But at the same time, they have not forgotten another important mission: keeping an eye on players coming and going.

The atmosphere was so tense that it was almost solid, and everyone's palms holding weapons were sweating profusely.

Suddenly, there was a street closest to the city gate. A priest rushed out in a panic. The eyes of the players from various guilds under the city gate lit up at this moment.

"Is it him?" Just as this hesitation flashed through everyone's minds, they saw an arrow shot out from the alley where the priest ran out, hitting the priest's shoulder.

The players under the city gate were already in a commotion, and they moved towards the priest without hesitation.

The pastor's steps did not stop. He took steps to escape, but a series of fireballs followed his footsteps and hit him in the back. At the same time, another tracking arrow flew over.

White light flashes! In the circle of light, something faintly fell down.

With a sound of "Bang Dang", the thing fell to the ground, the white light dissipated, and everyone saw clearly that it was a staff.

Almost at the same time. An archer had already rushed out of the alley, glanced at the people approaching the dungeon gate, and hurriedly rushed towards the staff on the ground. But immediately after, a warrior rushed out fiercely, hitting the archer's waist with a charge. The archer was knocked away with a swish. The warrior wanted to pick up the staff, but it was too easy for him to move. slow. The masters of various guilds under the city gate had already reacted, roaring angrily, and the magicians' spells and the archers' arrows shot out together. Centered on that staff. The mage set the surrounding area on fire. The archers fired fiercely at the warrior, but the warrior couldn't even take half a step forward. He hurriedly retreated back to the alleyway.

"Quick, magic staff!!!" Such a scream came from nowhere. The teams of each guild rushed forward. The one with the greater speed advantage had already jumped out from the crowd, but when he was still a few steps away from the staff, fire fell from the sky and turned him into ashes. Everyone stopped. Anyone who dares to step forward to pick up this staff at this time will immediately become the target of public criticism. After this poor player died, everyone thought of this truth.

For a moment, everyone looked at me and I looked at you. The staff was just a few steps in front of them, but no one dared to step forward to get it. Everyone was quickly thinking about what to do in their own private chat channels. Some people have already reported the situation here to the president.

The Priest College has been in chaos for a long time. The presidents and elders are still negotiating the current situation and have not found a suitable solution at all. Then they see a priest resurrected in the Priest College. Before everyone could see clearly, the priest went offline with the white light of resurrection. While everyone was stunned, they received reports from the direction of Ximen: a priest died and a staff exploded.

When the presidents heard about this situation, they held a meeting and immediately led their members to rush towards the west gate, learning about the details and the current situation along the way.

"The staff is on the ground, no one dares to touch it!"

This state is good, but it is by no means a long-term solution, because the items on the ground will be refreshed by the system when the time comes. And this time limit is only five minutes.

Even the fastest person can't arrive from the Pastoral College to the west gate in five minutes. In other words, someone must pick up the staff before the presidents arrive with their people, otherwise everyone will be in vain.

At this time, each guild leader considered the fastest situation and reminded his subordinates: Look for the opportunity to grab the staff. Even if you can't grab it, you must see who picked it up. and the person’s occupation.

At the same time, the guards at each resurrection point were told to stay alert.

At the West City Gate, the atmosphere was extremely tense. At this time, half a minute had passed since the staff landed on the ground, and no one seemed to be moving. But in fact, the people in the front row were moving forward in an extremely imperceptible way. Everyone wants to be within a range, a distance where they can reach the staff as soon as they stretch out their arms, so that even if they die immediately, it will be considered a profit. Unless luck is extremely bad, this death will just happen to explode the magic staff that he picked up.

A minute passed, and everyone's intentions were revealed. At this time, they had suddenly shortened the distance by one step. This was a change that could be judged by the naked eye. The players in the back row were a little surprised. In their opinion, the players in the front row had unknowingly opened a step away from them. Only then did they realize that the effect of adding up a small amount to a large amount is really terrible. .

Someone suddenly rushed out from the front row!

In fact, everyone is standing in a row, and the distance from the staff cannot be the same. Some people are slightly further away. Someone is closer. The one taking action now was the one closest to the staff, only two steps away, a distance that could be reached by just one step and bending down. He finally couldn't hold it any longer and took the first shot.

He's fast! Others are faster than him.

He was closest to the staff, but someone was closer to him than he was to the staff.

Two players beside him. As soon as they saw this guy moving, they immediately launched an attack. The two of them joined forces and killed him on the spot. One of the two team members was more scheming. He took advantage of this opportunity to attack and cleverly moved his position in advance. After succeeding in the attack, he tried to grab the staff. Ever since, another player who had been keeping an eye on him took action against him.

The situation at this time is already on the verge of breaking out, not to mention that it has already been touched twice? The chain reaction was completed quickly, and everyone started fighting, rushing forward to grab the staff while clearing away the dissidents around them.

The scene is chaotic, and players use all kinds of methods.

Someone quickly picked up the staff in the chaos. Seeing that the people around him couldn't stop him, they quickly kicked the staff away with their feet. The ground was full of human feet, and the staff couldn't roll very far, but the previous one missed this opportunity. He died immediately among the rebels. The second player to find an opportunity in the chaos. As soon as he bent down, he was kicked hard on his butt, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground. But he still tried hard to stretch his arms to squeeze the staff into his hand, but to no avail. Eventually he was trampled to death by the players.

Everyone finally realized that bending down to pick up a staff in such a chaotic scene was simply courting death. So no one made such a rash move again. Players approaching the staff. They all stretched their legs desperately to step on the staff under their feet.

Crowding, fighting, spells, death. The players who had nothing to do with themselves looked at the scene in front of them in horror. At this time, Jian Nanyou and several of his brothers were quietly walking out of the alley next to them and out of the west gate. No one noticed them, everyone's attention was on the staff on the ground.

However, all this was just a show by Jian Nanyou and the others, and even the dead priest was not one of their own. He was just an extremely low-level rookie player who was randomly identified on the street. With 50 gold coins and a good piece of priest equipment, he persuaded the other party to perform such a drama of sacrificing himself.

As for the staff on the ground, it was just an ordinary staff that the rookie player let go and threw on the ground the moment he died. Anyone can do this.

Jian Nanyou calculated that these guys would have preconceived ideas as soon as they saw the previous scene. No one would ever think that this is just a play at this time and use identification techniques to identify the authenticity.

Jian Nanyou was the last one to walk out of the west door. He looked back at the group of players who were still grabbing the ordinary staff on the ground, leaving a contemptuous smile.

A little late
