Chapter 142 The Requisition

The Vast Plain, which was flat and wide, had always been an excellent place for players to level up. In that region, it was possible for monsters to appear quickly; this was something that could meet the requirements of level-addicted players.

Besides, there were also uniquely-structured huge stones or low mountains. Players could choose to sit in the stone or the mountain to take a break and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the game world if they were tired.

However, a few days ago, everything in the Vast Plain had changed; even the creeps had disappeared. A player town was built there. Although it had just begun to take shape, the town was big and wide, which indicated the ambition of the owner.

But that scene didn’t last for a long time. After two days, the creeps in the Vast Plain gathered together once again. Numerous monsters began to launch attacks against the town, which was built in the center of the Vast Plain. It disturbed their lives.

That was the background of the monster siege war. If the Midsummer Guild could successfully defend against the monsters, there would be no creeps around the encampment; this would signify that the Vast Plain would belong to the Midsummer Guild.

But, if the monsters broke into the encampment, it would be destroyed and at the same time, the Vast Plain would also go back to normal.

At that moment, the players were fighting against the monsters in four directions around the town. The melee broke out and the players arranged four war flanks to defend against the waves of monsters.

Players turned into corpses and disappeared as white light all the time, while there were also numerous corpses of the monsters. These corpses wouldn’t disappear, unless another wave of monsters appeared.

“Hey! The 30th wave of monsters has been killed by the Midsummer Guild in advance, and the thirty-first wave will officially launch an attack in 10 minutes! Please get ready! You’ll win if you can resist the attack of the monsters, but you’ll lose the battle if any monsters break into the hall of your encampment!”

They suddenly heard the regional announcement. Then the melee attack changed and the wave of monsters retreated. They left the town and stayed away from the players who were guarding the encampment.

At that moment, everyone finally realized the extent of destruction! There were fewer than 200,000 players in one direction. The front and back row players were mixed together and players were also suffering from low morale. Some of them didn’t even have enough equipment.

“Hurry up and reorganize the formation! The front-row players come forward! The back-row players need to retreat!”

There were hundreds of thousands of players and the front was wide. All the senior managers and leaders of the Midsummer Rose were riding on their mounts and going back and forth across the plain to improve morale.

“There are only six waves of monsters left! We must resist the damages! We don’t need to kill the monsters! The only thing we need is to stick at it until the waves of monsters retreat!

But their encouragement didn’t work. After five hours of fighting, the members of the Midsummer Guild were tired.

The difficulty of the monster siege war was related to the ordinal. The first ten waves were easy to handle, with all the monsters at level ten. Although there was a huge amount of them, the players could still resist the damages and even kill all the monsters. Millions of monsters could bring them a slew of experience points, which helped countless players to level up in the fight. Unluckily, the monsters didn’t drop equipment, but the members of the Midsummer Guild were still confident and eager to get involved in the war.

After the first ten waves, the monsters began to reach level 10. With strong attributes, they were putting enormous pressure on the players.

At first, the players enjoyed the equipment advantage and had beaten back all the attacks of the monsters. It was impossible for them to kill all of them at that moment, and the only thing they could do was to resist the damages and push the front line outward.

But after that point, increasingly more players were killed, because creeps at level 20 were a huge threat to them.

There was no space to escape on that crowded and huge front. The priests were limited and tired; they couldn’t take care of hundreds of thousands of players at the same time. Therefore, players on the battlefield could only rely on health potions to stay alive.

As the level of the waves of monsters increased, the players of the Midsummer Guild faced greater pressure. It was impossible for them to push the front line outward from that moment on, and they also found it difficult to stand still. Some players started to retreat under the impact of the monsters.

The number of casualties increased and the formation was also destroyed. More importantly, players would lose experience points and equipment after being killed by the monsters. Therefore, many players lost equipment and their levels had also declined.

There was no bind in the encampment of the Midsummer Guild. But Midsummer Rose spend a lot of money building the Transmission Formation of their guilds and only players with the prefix could use it.

At first, the players who were killed would return to the town through the Transmission Formation, then they would continue to defend against the attacks of the monsters after they were resurrected in Tianlong City.

However, as time passed, the monsters would be at a higher level and the number of casualties had also increased dramatically.

More importantly, most of the players started to lose confidence after they were killed many times. Their equipment disappeared and their levels also dropped.

Everyone was selfish. It was the responsibility of the members to defend the encampment for the guild. But they started to hesitate and wanted to give up once their equipment disappeared and their levels dropped. The price was too high.

More and more players were killed, but fewer players returned to the front from the Transmission Formation. There used to be 500,000 players in one direction; now the number was reduced to 200,000. After all, most of them were newcomers who lacked a sense of belonging and didn’t want to sacrifice their lives.

The reduction in the number of players had brought more pressure to the front line. From then on, the Midsummer Guild could hardly resist the attacks of the monsters. Although they were retreating, they would also win as long as they could resist the damages for ten minutes and made sure that the waves of monsters didn’t break into the encampment of the guild.

Because the siege war would only last for ten minutes, and the monsters would retreat and disappear in the bind if they failed to break into the city. Still, just after a short break, a new wave of monsters at a higher level would come back and launch an attack once again!

“It seems that the Midsummer Guild can’t resist the damages. This is the thirty-first wave and there are still six waves of monsters.”

“The monsters of the thirtieth wave are at level 24. Monsters of this wave are definitely at level 25. It is likely that there will be monsters at level 30 in the end. I believe that no guild could resist the damages of 30th-level monsters.”

“It seems that the president must consider carefully before establishing the encampment. We’d better set it up after one monster. At that time, the average level of the players will be high enough.”

“I don’t think so. In fact, the guild doesn’t need to kill all the monsters. The only thing they need is to resist the damages for ten minutes. After ten minutes of the attack, the monsters will disappear. The major guilds such as Dynasty and Glory will find it easy to finish because they have a huge amount of players.”

“The Midsummer Guild is not cohesive enough and there are fewer players as time passes. It seems like they will fail to defend the encampment and we won’t need to make any trouble to disturb them.”

“I’m not sure. There are still some core members with excellent equipment in the guild. I believe that they are strong enough to resist the ten-minute attacks of the monsters.”

“Well, we still need to destroy their front. It’s said that those monsters that break into the encampment will not disappear. They will definitely fail to defend the encampment at that time.”

“Looks like that there are a lot of people who have been offended by the Midsummer Guild this time. Let’s work together to break their defense.”

“Ha! The Midsummer is not even one of the top 40 guilds in the Huaxia District. How dare they buy the first guild token in the entire server?”

...

Many players were watching that monster siege war and most of them went here with ulterior motives. They were changing information and discussing in secret. Many players who were standing on the huge stone or the low mountains were looking coldly at the encampment of the Midsummer Guild.

Finally, Xiaofeng arrived at the Vast Plain with the Paladin Order. The order was fast and they arrived there one hour before the end of the monster siege war.

“The battle is tragic.”

Xiaofeng and the Paladin Order finally appeared in the front of the Midsummer Guild’s encampment. He looked at the town at the front and then said to Captain Bolton, “Please stay here and wait for me for a moment.”

Captain Bolton nodded and was about to speak. But he was suddenly interrupted by the regional announcement.

“Hey! The 31st wave of monsters will officially launch the attack! Please get ready! You’ll win if you can resist the attack of the monsters and you’ll lose the war if monsters break into the hall of your encampment!”

Numerous monsters suddenly appeared outside the town and they rushed from three directions.

“What? Why is there no monster?”

Xiaofeng was about to leave but he suddenly noticed something wrong. Monsters appeared in three directions but there were no monsters in front of him.

“Mr. Archbishop...”

Xiaofeng felt strange and he suddenly heard the voice of Captain Bolton behind his back. He turned around and his eyes immediately widened in astonishment.

“F**k! What do you want?”

He suddenly found that the names of the entire Paladin Order, including Captain Bolton, had become red!

What happened?

There were three HP bar colors in the game of Myth. The red one usually appeared on the head of the creep and showed their opposition position. The yellow one represented neutrality and usually appeared on the heads of little monsters such as the Cooing Chicken. The green one represented friendship. All the NPCs in the main cities had green HP and Captain Bolton was no exception.

But at this moment, the HP bars of Captain Bolton and other NPCs suddenly turned from green to red!

“What are you doing? Come here and protect me!”

Xiaofeng was panicked and shocked; he didn’t know what had happened.

“Mr. Archbishop... There is a strong dark atmosphere in the town, and I need to clear it immediately.”

“Yes. We have the same feeling.”

Luckily, Captain Bolton’s HP bar had turned red but they were still behaving reasonably. They explained to Xiaofeng with a frown.

Xiaofeng was stunned and looked them carefully. But he suddenly thought of something and then stared at the order strangely.

It seemed that they had been requisitioned by the system...

The so-called ‘requisition’ was just a catchphrase. For example, the nearby creeps would be selected by the system and asked to enter the fight against the encampment.

It was said that in the previous traditional online games, a dragon BOSS that had already reached the highest level, was chosen by the system when it passed by the siege war of a major guild. Finally, it would break into the encampment and kill all the players by itself.

But Xiaofeng didn’t expect that Captain Bolton would be chosen by the system. He was on the player’s side.
