Chapter 99 Moment of Glory (please vote for me)
The fierce battle at the cloud field node has lasted for 2 hours.
During this period, the support force of the terrifying black tide surged in from all directions.
The joint combat group that has advanced to the vicinity of the Yuntian node has continued to suffer casualties during this period.
But until now, everyone knows that our side is not far from victory.
During this period, a new evil spirit bred in the black tide gave Ye Xing, who was the combat commander, a headache.
This evil shape is like a big meat ball with legs. It has a broad head, and its eyes are sunken deep into the thick sarcoma body. It has a huge eye that emits a faint light, and its cracked mouth is full of sharp claws. The teeth emit green mist and drip thick saliva. When they fall on the ground, they will be instantly corroded and burnt black.
Xie Sui's lower limbs are thick and deformed, with no hands. It holds two small sarcomas on its back, which are covered with spots of mildew and rotten flesh. It exudes a suffocating stench. When it moves, the two small sarcomas will continuously release green mist.
It can be called the source of infection in action.
Through analysis, the players in front have posted the information about the new evil spirit in the small area chat channel.
【Black Tide·Plague Ball】
Hunting Level: 12
Target introduction: Black Tide Evil Ghost, a low-level unit of the plague system, can release plague poisonous mist within a range. Targets touched by the poisonous mist will suffer increased damage from the corrosion of the black tide, and will be accompanied by dizziness, nausea, and other negative states (the specific effect is affected by the body of the person in contact) Affected by fitness, the stronger the physical fitness, the lower the infection damage. If the physical strength is strong enough to a certain extent, you can be exempted from infection).
……
The plague ball condensed by the black tide can be called a tank killer.
The damage caused by Plague Corrosion is not high, but its effect is to weaken the defense of the front row stone statue players, significantly increasing the damage caused by the Black Tide Evil Spirit.
Just like the common debuff in the game, as long as it is infected, it will weaken the player's ability to bear injuries.
This frustrated the team's progress.
Stone statue players are the rock in the team, and their biggest role is to protect the players behind them from normal operations and avoid being disturbed by external forces.
The core ability of Gargoyle players is their strong physique and defense.
The poisonous mist released by the plague ball weakened the strongest attributes of stone statue players, and the number of casualties during the advancement began to increase significantly.
Coupled with the constant support from new Kuroshio forces, the battle is about to be dragged by the Kuroshio into the protracted war they are best at.
In the view of Ye Xing, who was in charge of command, this was a sign of imminent failure.
The numerical gap is already very large. Once it falls into a protracted war, our own camp will definitely lose.
In the entire Imperial Tomb Mountains, the only one capable of fighting a protracted war against the evil spirits of the Black Tide through a steady stream of explosive troops was the insect tide.
The rules and characteristics of the fighting Zerg collecting pheromones allow them to quickly breed new Zerg units that can specifically suppress this unit, even if they are temporarily at a disadvantage when facing the new Black Tide unit.
Just like the unit previously created to restrain the self-destruction characteristics of ghost babies: Shield Ptera.
Special units such as Plague Balls will also be quickly developed into targeted units when encountering an insect wave.
Perhaps it is a Zerg combat unit that can spit out dispersing energy and resist the spread of plague energy, or it may be a Zerg combat unit that can absorb plague energy, etc.
As long as the Zerg mastermind is given enough time to collect pheromones, combat units that can restrain the opponent's new units will appear.
This is the feeling these two major forces gave Ye Xing.
The Kuroshio has a huge troop library. As long as the Kuroshio's strength reaches a certain stage, you can enter the troop library to select life sequence combinations, and then breed new troops that suit the current Kuroshio strength. This is true at every stage.
From the initial level 2-4 evil spirit to the current plague ball, the intensity of the black tide has been advanced several times.
The same goes for the insect swarm on the other side.
As long as the Kuroshio breeds a new unit, it can collect the pheromones provided by the new unit through combat, and then create a combat unit specifically designed to suppress this new unit.
Without thinking about this problem, Ye Xing began to think about how to break the situation.
The advancement of the battle formation gradually slowed down, and he had to find a way to deal with these difficult plague balls to ensure the advancement of the stone statue flow players.
"The major guilds will count the number of assassins and report them to me, quickly!"
After hearing Ye Xing's instructions, the presidents of the major guilds decisively sent out inquiries on the guild voice channel.
Not long after, Ye Xing got the statistics.
When he discovered that there were only 59 players in the joint combat group who chose the Assassin stream, he couldn't help but frown, but still issued the order:
"All Assassin-style players, activate the twilight form and enter the battle formation from both wings. The target is the plague ball."
After the order was issued, the assassin-style players in the joint combat group set off one after another, turning into shadows and dispatching from both wings at extremely fast speeds, approaching the main front where the fiercest battle was the fiercest.
At this time, Ye Xing also used perception to lock onto the plague balls appearing in front, and then marked the location information of these plague balls and sent them to the small area chat channel to give assassin players accurate coordinate positioning.
"All Assassin players, according to the positioning I sent, assassinate the plague ball closest to them."
"All legal system players will switch to free output, and use the eagle-headed demon life soul to guide the evil spirits ahead, so as not to hurt the assassin-style players who cut behind enemy lines."
"The rest of the gargoyle players push forward to create assassination opportunities for the assassin players. The magic defense flow moves forward to a front, and tries to remotely release light shields to protect the assassin flow players."
New command orders were issued, and the battle formations were rearranged according to Ye Xing's requirements.
As the plague balls continue to die, the number of assassin players is also rapidly decreasing.
This gave Ye Xingdu a headache.
The number of players in the assassin stream is too small. There are at least hundreds of plague balls that follow the black tide, and new ones are born at any time.
Through perceptual observation, we can find that most of our Assassin players are not very skilled, and it is difficult to even exchange 1 for 1 in the face of the surging black tide.
Among these assassin players, only Ashes of the Veteran Regiment can easily travel across the battle lines and carry out precise assassinations. However, his personal ability alone cannot move across the battle lines and can only eliminate plague balls in some areas.
The advance of the front reached a deadlock again.
On the first front, Stone Statue players can advance against the black tide. Their ultra-high defense allows them to avoid most damage, but their output efficiency is very low. Even if they are close to the plague ball, they cannot kill it in a short time and will soon be killed. The tide of evil spirits pushes away.
The weapon spirit flow players on the second front have very high output, but they are unable to push forward against the black tide. Their ability to withstand injuries is far inferior to the stone statue flow players. They easily fall down in the face of intensive offensives and find it difficult to get close to the plague ball.
In the legal stream, players with the eagle-headed demon life soul can indeed achieve long-range precision guidance.
However, each plague ball is surrounded by dense evil spirits for protection, and it is difficult for fireballs to break through the human shield defense formed by this layer of black tide of evil spirits.
It would be great if there was the defense of the gargoyle and the output of the weapon spirit flow.
This idea just came to Ye Xing's mind, and he suddenly thought of a very popular post on the forum a few days ago.
It describes a matching tactic that complements each other's shortcomings, which the player who posted the story calls the mount flow.
After reading the post, he felt that this combination was very reliable from a practical point of view.
The power generated is by no means as simple as 1+1 equals 2.
In combined operations after complementing the shortcomings of the Star Veins, theoretically, if both players have the same life soul level, both players have 3 Star Vein slots, and the combined combat power is 6 Star Vein slots.
It can have both output, defense and mobility.
Having an idea, Ye Xing immediately spoke in his voice:
"Each major guild will count the number of remaining monster stream players as soon as possible. After the statistics are completed, the small area voice channel will report to me."
2 minutes later, Ye Xing, who saw the statistics, gave another order:
"All monster flow players retreated to the third front, and the weapon spirit flow players in the middle of the first front (marked on the map) also retreated to the third front."
"Fangfangliu goes to the first front line, lights up the shield, and buys me as much time as possible."
The battle formation changed again under Ye Xing's command.
Magic defense players with restraint + light shield life souls came to the first row and resisted the fierce offensive of the black tide by condensing light shields.
But not with Gargoyle players.
Fa Fangliu needs to consume mental energy during combat. Even if it can condense a light shield to form a defensive barrier in a short period of time, this time will not be very long.
While waiting, players of the monster flow and weapon spirit flow gathered on the third front.
Ye Xing, who saw this scene through the perspective of perception, took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice:
"I know that the following order is a bit difficult to accept for many people who choose monsters, but we are only one step away from victory. How can we be willing to give up at this time? I believe you all have the same idea as me, so for the final Victory, I beg all monster flow players to make sacrifices... At the end of this battle, every monster flow player comes to me for cash compensation, thank you for your efforts.”
After saying that, Ye Xing's tone suddenly increased:
"All the Qi Ling flow players get on the backs of the monster flow players and prepare to charge against the black tide!" After hearing Ye Xing's order, the monster flow players felt helpless, but Ye Xing had already lowered his posture to the lowest level.
The most important thing is that they have invested a lot of resources and energy in this battle, how can they be willing to give up at this time.
In the face of victory, they did not complain and chose to obey Ye Xing's instructions.
On the contrary, there are the melee players of the selector spirit flow. Their expressions cannot be concealed with joy, and they all turn to their good brothers, or other people's good brothers.
Through perception and observation, it was determined that the third battle array monster flow players and tool spirit flow players had been matched up, and Ye Xing issued the order again:
"The third front switched to the first front and prepared to charge."
Immediately, players riding black-armored snakes, roaring (bears) and other monster forms moved towards the first front. The French defense force, who was struggling to maintain the light shield barrier on the first front, retreated to the second front.
"Look at the coordinates I marked in the small area chat channel, all monster flow players, charge!"
The order was issued, and the cavalry combination on the first front advanced forward with thunderous momentum, aiming directly at the plague ball hiding in the black tide.
Super high mobility + the powerful body of the monster style single life soul + the high melee output of the weapon spirit style, the lethality of the mount style is much stronger than Ye Xing expected.
The advancing front line is like the dawn of dawn, turning into a torrent of progress against the evil and violent pressure of the black tide.

During this period, players in the team and guild voice channels kept exclaiming:
"Damn, it's so cool. This combination is really invincible."
"I really want to bind myself to my brother and let him be my mount in the future, but I dare not chat with him privately for fear that he will turn around and bite me."
"It's so cool. Mounts are the most powerful combination of Star Veins. It would be perfect if the Star Veins slot can be equipped with a player who plays monster style in the future. When you want to use it, you can use the characteristic summons. It is simply the best combination that melee fighters can dream of. .”
"I became addicted in an instant. I envy players who have good brothers in the monster style. If I have a friend who chooses the monster style, I will grind him to death and make him my mount no matter what."
"Damn it, uncle, you little bitch riding on my back, you can shout 'fight' again. If it weren't for the sake of the God King, you could ride on me... I'm getting angrier the more I think about it, wait a minute If I don’t bite you to death at the end of the battle, you will really consider yourself a knight, right?”
"The most frustrating experience of playing monster style, but I endured it for the sake of victory. I almost wanted to cry."
"Stand firm for the fool on my back. The monsters in front are a bit dense. I will roar and clear the area. Don't blame me if you are thrown away."
……
The strength of a single life soul in the monster style is far higher than that of players who develop multiple life souls in the early stage.
Their strong physical fitness combined with the violent output of the Qi Ling flow players opened a gap for the battle formation to move forward.
The Plague Ball, which was still spewing poisonous mist, became the knight's primary target. After bullying them, they launched a combined and ferocious attack.
This wave of charge instantly relieved the pressure caused by the plague balls. A large number of plague balls were killed, and the poisonous mist dispersed with the wind as time passed.
Ye Xing also issued a new order at this time, and the speed of the joint battle formation's advance towards the corrosion core suddenly accelerated.
At this time, it was less than 150 meters away from the corrosion core.
The battle to purify the node enters its final frantic moment.
Twisted vines kept rising from the ground, cutting into the back row and stirring wildly, trying to disrupt the battle formation under Ye Xing's command.
Faced with the increasingly chaotic situation, Ye Xing mobilized some of the Artifact flow players in front to retreat and be responsible for protecting the output life of the Magic system flow.
It has been nearly three hours since the fight, and the joint combat group has lost nearly half of its players.
In the early stage, new players came from Dizhong Village after resurrection and rejoined the battle.
However, the battle has advanced to the vicinity of the corrosive core, and even if players return after completing the resurrection cooldown, they will not be able to join the continuously advancing battle formation.
Because the entire battle formation has been completely shrouded in terrifying black fog, cutting off the way back.
The remaining players never thought about retreating. Facing the corrosive core getting closer and closer, all they thought about was that they would be locked in a dark room for an hour after death.
In the final sprint stage, Ye Xing chose to let legal players start the krypton gold strategy.
Under his command, players on the legal front constantly summoned Liuying clones and launched a charge through the self-destruction of the clones, trying to tear apart the twisted plants in front of the corrosive core and nearly blocking the line of sight, opening up a path to victory.
15 minutes later.
As the corrosive core ruptured, pieces of flesh scattered everywhere, and the originally mottled node crystals underground were covered with a layer of scarlet energy.
A pitch-black space vortex was generated and expanded with the node crystal as the center, seeming to swallow up the entire land.
The challenger prompt also popped up in the minds of all players:
[Challenger Tips (all channels): The entire mission "Purify the Cloud Field Node" has been completed, and the rewards will be distributed according to the campaign contribution as follows]:
Contribution ranking:
First place: I am Wang Fa (reward: Lingtian 5x5)
Second place: Only play mage in this life (reward: Lingtian 5x5)
Third Place: Sword Points to the Sky (Reward: Spiritual Field 5x5)
……
Along with the system prompts, the honor album appears in the sight of all players and the pages are turned automatically.
Page One: Battle of Dark Cave.
Page 2: Battle of the Devil's Pit.
Turning to the third page, a clickable battle video appears on the originally blank page. Screenshots are continuously inserted into the highlight column on the right side of the album, which is permanently saved as a record. The end time of the battle is displayed at the bottom.
Along with the endless cheers at the scene, Ye Xing's slightly hoarse voice sounded on the small area voice channel:
"Brothers, after 3 hours and 12 minutes of hard work, we finally won."
"It is truly my honor to be elected as the united front commander in this battle and to fight side by side with all of you. Thank you to every brother who participated in the battle. It was your efforts that built our unstoppable battle formation, and it was also your tacit cooperation that allowed us to The tactical layout was executed perfectly. In this battle, we were not only teammates, but also each other’s strongest support, and together we wrote another chapter of the battle that will be permanently recorded.”
"In the days to come, we may face more unknown forces, insect waves, evil spirits, and there are endless challenges waiting for us to conquer. I firmly believe that as long as we work together, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome. Once again Thank you for your trust in me, and let us look forward to the next glorious moment of fighting side by side, thank you! ”
Ye Xing's words brought the emotions of the players present to a climax.
Even those players who were scolded by Ye Xing in the battle had to admit Ye Xing's contribution to this battle.
The sense of accomplishment gained after overcoming difficulties and obstacles and completing challenges is like warm sunshine, penetrating into the heart of every player.
The tired but satisfied figures hugged each other and celebrated. Everyone was cheering and the afterglow of victory flowed in their hearts.
Mission rewards are also distributed at this time.
Players who enter the top 1,000 contribution list will have an additional spiritual field in the function panel, and can purchase spiritual planting seeds through the mall for planting.
Each type of seed has a marked ripening time.
The higher the level of spiritual plants, the larger the spiritual field area required for growth and the longer the growth time required.
Some special spiritual plants also require players to perform additional growth care. Answers to this aspect can be obtained through consultation with the guidance clone.
At the same time, the area of Dizhong Village, which had swallowed up the nodes in the Yuntian domain, began to expand to accommodate more players in the Dizhong Village.
This is also a very important project in Qi Sheng's eyes.
There are two reasons for limiting player recruitment progress.
The core key is the sacrificial power inventory. Each player needs to consume 1,000 sacrificial power points to create an initial body. 1,000 players is an expenditure of 1 million sacrificial power.
The second is the size of Teizuka Village.
The larger the area, the more players can be accommodated.
If it were the size of Imperial Tomb Village when the server was launched, it would not even be able to accommodate the current number of players.
In the event of simultaneous resurrection after collective death, the entire Teizuka Village will fall into a state of crowding and congestion, and the road to the outside world will be completely blocked.
Therefore, every time Teizuka Village is expanded, it is to expand the space for new players to settle in.
When the number of players exceeds 100,000, Qi Sheng even plans to establish multiple resurrection areas and multiple exits to the outside world in Dizhong Village.
Ensure players a smooth gaming experience.
