Hu Die Lan
Chapter 949 Meeting at the Clock Tower
The meaning of Yu Tian Shen Ming's words was finally understood by everyone. The various guild leaders ordered their members to remain silent in their respective channels. With no leveling monsters to disturb them, everyone shut their mouths, and it immediately became quiet. Yu Tian Shen Ming was only a few dozen meters away from them, and at this distance, his shout could definitely be heard.
Seeing the formation of the opposing side, Yu Tian Shen Ming understood as well. He immediately strained his voice and shouted, "The tallest clock tower in the city, waiting for you!!"
He shouted these words three times in a row, and with a flash of white light, Yu Tian Shen Ming disappeared directly. Immediately, one of the guild leaders became angry: "Damn, who made a move??"
But upon closer inspection, something was wrong. If someone had made a move, then the stealthy rogue should have appeared. There was clearly no one there! The scouts also sent back news in a timely manner: it wasn't them who made a move, but the person teleported away after shouting.
Although the person had left, most people had heard the three sentences he shouted. The twenty-six guild leaders naturally began a new round of emergency consultations. The issue under discussion made everyone want to cry, which was the old problem of whether to enter or not.
"What clock tower is he talking about? What kind of place is that?" someone asked.
"I have a map here, everyone come and take a look!" A careful guild leader had specially obtained a map of Cloud City before this expedition. Although they shouldn't have been able to buy a map of Cloud City, as long as there was a studio, nothing was a problem.
Cloud City was right in front of them, but the guild leaders were somewhat puzzled by the opponent's disturbance. The twenty-six of them gathered under the city and began to study the so-called tallest clock tower while lying on the ground.
"It should be here, right?" The map owner had been looking at it for a long time and was now pointing to this location.
"This place is open on all sides, there's no way to set up an ambush!" one person said, looking at the terrain.
"Yes, and such an open area is even more beneficial to us with such a large number of people."
"The surrounding streets are also unlikely to form an effective blockade against us. There are too many streets, how could they have so many elite experts?"
Everyone spoke one after another, and in the end, they reached a consensus that the location of this clock tower was not a place to set up an ambush, and they couldn't pull off any tricks here.
"So, it's still on the route to reach this clock tower?" Everyone guessed, continuing to study in depth.
Here and there, there and here, twenty-six fingers pointed and划去 on the map, discussing various possibilities. There were only four gates that must be passed to enter the city from outside, and after that, the routes from the four gates to any location in the main city were ever-changing. Some were close, some were far, some deliberately went around, how could anyone count them all? Moreover, the street entrances were drawn on this map, but the specific street layout was still unknown. After discussion, the final decision was: scouts would enter the city to investigate.
Then everyone reviewed again, didn't Yu Tian Shen Ming's shouting these three sentences have no impact on their decision at all? This shout, on the other hand, gave them a key line of investigation.
The twenty-six guilds waited anxiously outside the city for news.
The various studio bosses who came to watch the show were also very anxious waiting for their news.
They most hoped that Very Heaven would mobilize all the players in the city to fight against them, but now that the opponent was already at the city, no one in Cloud City was doing any mobilization in this regard. The players in Cloud City were just treating these guys who came from afar to seek revenge as a topic of conversation, and they were as curious as the studio bosses about how Very Heaven would respond...
The bosses were really anxious, they even wanted to help Very Heaven mobilize the masses. They had already prepared for this, and instigation was also their strength.
While the twenty-six guild leaders were discussing nervously, the bosses were also not idle. It was really sad that the play was too confusing. Seeing that the expeditionary forces were suspicious and afraid to enter the city, the bosses really wanted to inform them: the city was calm and peaceful, so quiet that it was unbelievable. It seemed that Very Heaven had made no preparations at all.
At this moment, while the twenty-six guild leaders sent out scout corps, the bosses also dispatched their subordinates. However, the people they sent went to a very specific place, which was the clock tower. They had also heard Yu Tian Shen Ming's shout just now. What was the mystery of this place? The bosses were also very curious!
After all, the studio's people had stronger infiltration capabilities, and they were faster at doing these things. They didn't need to disguise themselves or sneak around, they could just walk around wherever they wanted like ordinary people. People from all the bosses went to the clock tower, normal, extremely normal, what was this area like usually, it was still the same today.
After that, subordinates who had further investigated reported: there were people on the clock tower, and it seemed that they were people from Very Heaven!
What were they doing? While the bosses were still very curious about this question, the twenty-six armies had already begun to move. After all, their scouting players were not slow, and they were experienced. They quickly determined that there were no ambushes after entering the city. Although the twenty-six guild leaders were still suspicious, it was indeed a bit useless to keep squatting at the city gate, so they immediately ordered to enter the city together.
The twenty-six guilds, with more than 26,000 people, would take some time to squeeze through one gate at a time. Moreover, the twenty-six guild leaders were very modest about which guild should enter first. In the end, the teams were mixed, and then they started to enter the city. As soon as they entered the city, the entire road was full of their people, and the players in Cloud City could only retreat to both sides.
Mutual hostility was inevitable, but the hostility of the players in Cloud City only stayed on their gazes, and the twenty-six guilds also kept their hostility in secret vigilance.
The army marched all the way in, so smoothly that the guild leaders were a little confused. Did Very Heaven really have no preparations at all? No ambushes at all? What did they want to do by inviting them to some clock tower? Did they want to start a bloody battle there? But if that was the case, wouldn't it be more enjoyable to do it directly outside the city?
The scouts had already gone one step further to the clock tower and carefully studied the area around it. There were indeed no ambushes. The twenty-six guild leaders even suspected that people were all in the houses. However, to ambush their more than 20,000 people, how many houses would they need to hide how many people? They couldn't be sure about people, but there was absolutely no way there could be so many houses. Even the districts that were rewarded to the guilds during city battles were not for the guild players to use at will.
At this moment, the scouts in front suddenly reported that there was a banner hanging on the clock tower.
"What banner?"
"Welcome to the main city guild leaders for guidance," the scout reported.
The twenty-six guild leaders were speechless in the channel. What was going on?
At the same time, the studio bosses also received this news, and they were also full of suspicion. But they were still outside the city now and couldn't come in for a while. The team of 26,000 people entering the city was relatively large, and it delayed the boss's tour group outside the city...
"What are these guys doing?" Many people in the guild leaders were worried.
"We've checked all around, there's absolutely no problem. What tricks can a small clock tower play? We have so many people that we can push it down. Advance! I want to see what tricks these guys want to play today." One of the guild leaders gave a speech with great momentum. The other guild leaders felt that it made sense, so they ordered the team to advance. A moment later, the advance troops had arrived in the clock tower area, but they did not act rashly, waiting for the follow-up troops to advance together.
More than 20,000 people, although the clock tower area was empty, it was not enough for them to stand together. In the end, the ones who could get close were naturally the guild leaders and elite leaders. Everyone circled the clock tower twice, but they couldn't see anything special. They saw that the large banner hung straight down from the top of the clock tower, and at this time, it was hunting in the wind, making the words on it unclear. Obviously, the other party was very careless in making this banner, and there was no heavy object attached to the bottom, so it could be rolled up by the wind like this...
Everyone looked at each other, looking at the dark clock tower stone door in front of them. What was hidden inside?
"Find a few heavy armored warriors to go in and take a look?" one of the guild leaders suggested.
Everyone nodded. This scout was different from before, the chance of danger was super high. If they let the rogues go again, they might be killed directly. Heavy armored warriors could withstand any attack a little longer. With two rows of priests standing behind to heal them, they could understand the situation and retreat without any major problems.
"Archers and mages pay attention to the high places." The guild leaders noticed that there were windows on each floor of the clock tower at intervals, and they might launch some attacks from there.
The heavy armored warriors responsible for scouting had already stepped forward. They had all applied voluntarily, and in the end, four were selected. Each of them had high health and thick skin, and they were all elites from various guilds. At this time, showing their faces in front of 26,000 people, these four guys were not nervous, but very proud. And they evilly hoped that after being attacked, the other three would die, and only they would survive, wouldn't that make them seem even more awesome?
The four warriors asked the guild leaders for instructions, exchanged a look with each other, and then, holding their shields to protect their heads, they went into the clock tower together. The huge venue suddenly became quiet. What was inside this door, demons or ghosts?
Everyone held their breath, quietly watching these four strongest guys step into the door with their shields. At that moment, the priests had already started healing, regardless of whether they saw an attack or not.
As expected, the four warriors who entered the clock tower immediately heard movement, but they were mentally prepared. With the priests already working, they believed that they could withstand any attack in this game. They calmly raised their heads and looked up at the top of their heads where the sound came from...
With a loud bang, accompanied by dust and gravel flying out, the players standing in front of the clock tower watched as a round shield rolled out of the smoke and dust. The priests had already lost their healing target...
The smoke and dust dissipated quickly, and they saw that the entrance of the clock tower had been blocked by a pile of rocks. Under the pile of rocks, there was a hand stubbornly, unyieldingly, struggling to stretch out.
The priests were stunned. One of them raised his staff, seemingly wanting to give assistance to this hand. Suddenly, a white light flashed, and the hand disappeared. With another bang, the stone pile sank, instantly filling the empty space left by the brushed-off warrior.
