The next day.

Ashburn half-lyed on the bed, listening to Fix, who was on the side, reporting what happened after yesterday's battle.

He adjusted his posture slightly, picked up the stack of documents at hand, and confirmed, "Uncle Wang saved me?"

Fix didn't dare to take credit for the unkind Grand Duke, who obviously didn't like His Highness very much.

What if you talk too much and cause His Highness to misunderstand, and then pack yourself up and send him to your door, then what should you do?

He calmed down, and told the truth, "It was a player named Angelo who saved you, but among them, the Grand Duke is credited with providing medical ideas."

Ashbourn thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled lightly, and said, "Then I will come to the door to thank you personally."

Fix didn't understand very well, and he cautiously suggested, "Will this disturb Duke Uriah? After the matter of drinking ingredients happened, he made a special statement that no one else is allowed to enter or leave the Duke's mansion at will. "

Fix has every reason to believe that this "idleman" should refer to His Royal Highness the First Prince.

Ashbourn glanced at him and said sincerely, "This time is different. Angelo's contribution is obvious to all. Whether it is me or the king, I will thank him sincerely, but Uncle Wang's little Contribution, but it is easy to be ignored, what if he can't think about it for a while and gets sulking."

Fix: "..."

How did he feel that Duke Uriah might prefer to be ignored.

But since His Highness had already made a decision, and struggled to get up, and was about to get out of bed and go to the Duke's mansion in person, Fix reluctantly summoned his attendants to bring over the clean clothes.

Ashburn carefully selected a set of low-key but more energetic meeting dresses, which can make him still look slightly pale and look relatively better.

Auston disapproved of the eldest prince going out, but his reasons were legitimate and noble, and he couldn't stop him, so he followed Fix and sighed secretly.

After Ashburn went out, he didn't go directly to the Grand Duke's mansion, but first went to the residences of the distinguished guests and visited the group of players.

Angelo saw the handsome man standing there with a gentle smile and deep brows, he couldn't help but start to move a few times.

Although the development of things was different from what was expected before, and in the end he was pushed out of the shelves and had to expose his identity, but in the end, he was still the savior of His Royal Highness!

Isn't it a common practice to repay a life-saving grace with your own body?

Thinking of this, An Qiluo couldn't help showing a look of certainty in his eyes.

With a slightly lively tone, he quickly pulled the distance between him and the eldest prince, and said, "Your Highness, you are welcome. When encountering injustices, helping each other with skills is what I should do. As long as your Highness is fine, I can help you." , it is my honor!"

Ashburn smiled and said, "If you have any needs, please feel free to ask, and we will definitely meet them within our ability."

Angelo's eyes lit up, and he spoke first, "I want to be His Royal Highness's personal physician...it's that kind of private therapist. We have a very popular profession like this. It's also an important thing for His Highness's health. Strong guarantees."

After hearing this, some of the attendants following the eldest prince couldn't help but feel happy about it, and hoped that His Highness would agree.

It is really a lucky thing to get the long-term assistance of a player, who has magical medical skills, and even be able to guard against the poison from the current queen in the future.

After all, this kind of thing has happened more than once.

Ashburn's expression remained unchanged, but he just smiled gently, "Thank you, but your skills should be in a better position and play more roles. I can't be so selfish to monopolize this honor."

An Qiluo was a little anxious, "It's okay, I'm willing..."

Ashburn patted him on the shoulder and said, "What's more, there is Uncle Wang by my side."

Uncle Wang?

Angelo recalled the relationship between these power holders, and said, "Your Highness is referring to... the Duke of Uriah?"

The loser who could tell that the other party was a villain just from the gossip he heard, and who would definitely be eliminated by the new king in the future.

After all, even the people in the streets and alleys knew that he was going to rebel, what else could he do.

Angelo was a little confused, so he tentatively asked, "Is it because the Duke does not allow you to hire a personal physician?"

This is too much, just a cannon fodder NPC!

Ashburn shook his head lightly and said, "If it's a special situation like yesterday, I can only ask you guys, but if it's an ordinary injury, Uncle Wang is enough for me."

Angelo frowned, "Duke Uriah also knows how to do medicine?"

Ashbourne smiled, and casually brushed back the light-blond hair hanging from his neck, and said, "No, it's just that he kissed me, and the pain flew away."

Angelo: "..."

He obviously hasn't had lunch yet, so why does he suddenly feel a little full, and even a little nauseous.

Everyone: "..."

They always felt that His Royal Highness deliberately took advantage of the opportunity to say this sentence.

Fix couldn't help raising his hand and resting his forehead. In less than an hour, the words of the eldest prince will be spread, and a new item will be added to the short story book dedicated to him and Duke Uriah. content.

At the same time, Su Yunqing, who was sitting firmly in the Duke's mansion, seemed to have a feeling in his heart.

He paced back and forth for a while, and finally asked his servants to make some amendments to the prohibition on the entry of "idle people and others", changing it to specifically target "idle people with golden retrievers".

On the other side, Ashburn calmly continued to ask other players what corresponding needs they have.

Tim and the others didn't have any special ideas. They made up their minds to stay in Godfrey and live here stably for a long time, otherwise they wouldn't take the risk of facing high-level players.

The player named Berg thought for a while, and said with some concern, "The Shadow Dagger is a drop of a high-level dungeon, and it is difficult for ordinary single-player players to obtain such a level of weapon... Behind the assassin, the big There is a probability that there will be one team, or even more than one, so you better be careful."

Ashburn said sternly, "Thank you for the reminder. According to the information I received this morning, there are indeed some special signs on the outskirts of the city. The city defense forces have stepped up their patrols and vigilance."

Another player with a tall hat put his hand on Berg's shoulder and said, "Not only Your Highness, everyone should be careful, after those guys break the city, can they still let go of those who blocked them?" Man of action?"

"But if the guess is true, then it is very likely that the intruder was the Glory Mercenary Group that had previously broken through many city walls." Berg frowned even more when he heard that, "At our current level, we can't Not an opponent of advanced players."

Tim clenched his fists and said, "I plan to gather the players in this city to resist the upcoming siege."

Oston was stunned for a while, and he raised his hand to signal, "Is what you said true? Those people want to attack the city? This is not the type of war that can be launched casually." .”

Under normal circumstances, to attack the main city of a country, you must have several times the number of troops, sufficient food and grass, and sophisticated planning.

Although Godfrey is known as the city of peace, the Academy of the Holy Spirit, located in it, is famous for producing powerful magicians and warriors, and it is precisely because it has enough strength that it can guarantee long-term peace.

But now, someone just opened his mouth and said that he wanted to break the city? !

Berg looked at the strong warrior and said in a low voice, "Those advanced skills are unimaginable, and for some players, killing people and destroying cities is just commonplace. Everyone's sense of morality... is actually not very strong."

When playing games, who cares about the control of laws and regulations? Even after "New World" has changed, there are many of them, and it is difficult to equate the lives of these NPCs with normal humans.

It lasted until they lived for a period of time, encountered some people, and some things, which made the players wake up, "New World" has changed from virtual to reality, this is a living world!

Auston was still a little hard to understand, but Ashburn had already suppressed the smile on his lips. After talking with these adventurers for a while, he took them to meet his father.

In the afternoon, various orders were quickly issued, and the soldiers were distributed at various entrances and exits. The civilians were told to store dry food and close the doors and windows. Even the dean, vice-principal, and mentors of the Holy Spirit College were all put on battle armor. Picked up the staff and joined the army.

The whole city is preparing for war, and martial law is at the first level.

Many players in the city were summoned voluntarily and gathered together to discuss skill combinations and team allocation.

As time passed, several tentative attacks from outside the city were barely resisted, but many people were injured, and the atmosphere in the city became more and more tense.

On a high slope outside the city wall.

"Oh, have you started to move yet?" A man in armor and holding a giant hammer stood on the rock, his voice sounded rough.

Standing in front of him was a young man wearing a silver top hat, his eyes were bent, and he said, "Yes, I came here to let you know, Benjamin, you and your people are still in charge of the frontal impact as usual. .”

The man with the sledgehammer snorted heavily, "It's enough to tell the team panel about this kind of thing. It doesn't take much to run and lie down. The next step of breaking the city is left to me."

The young man wearing a silver top hat looked quite distressed, and he said, "It's because you didn't pay attention to the precautions I mentioned before, so Erwin asked me to come here in person, please, be merciful, don't keep those things The civilians are ground into meat, and the cleaning work afterward will be more troublesome."

Benjamin said disdainfully, "Then what can be done, who knew their meat was so easy to crush, I don't want to dirty my hammer!"

The young man in the tall hat sighed, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "As you like, the big deal is that you will pay more to hire more scavengers to come over. Every time you break the city, you have to clean the inside and outside before you come in... eh Can Erwin's faults be corrected?"

Benjamin snorted coldly, and said, "He's a clean freak, but those NPCs are too good at bleeding, sometimes their boots will be soaked red, and they have to use cleaning techniques frequently, so troublesome."

The tall-hatted youth nodded and said, "Indeed, so this time I thought about it, I should use ice magic earlier to freeze them, so that when you hit, there will be no blood splatter. .”

Benjamin patted the other party's shoulder vigorously, "Wen Nai, I really have you, this is a good way!"

He raised the heavy hammer, carried it on his shoulder, and said, "I'll lead someone to attack from the front, you move quickly, otherwise those aborigines will stick to the floor after being hammered flat, and it will be even more difficult." Cleaned up."

The tall-hatted young man named Wen Nai smiled implicitly, nodded, and said, "I never thought that Godfrey, the legendary city of freedom, used to be unable to even enter this city when I was a low-level person. To be the one who witnessed its demise..."

Benjamin curled his lips and said, "The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. A ruined city should be replaced by a more suitable owner."

After finishing speaking, he strode forward. Suddenly, Wen Nai behind him seemed to think of something, and said loudly, "There are still many players there, who have already joined the city guards. Pay attention."

Without looking back, Benjamin said harshly, "Things as stupid as pigs and dogs are actually standing on Godfrey's side. I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup they have been poured into. The difference in strength will make them see the reality clearly."

If those players died in this siege battle, they can't blame others, it's all their own choices and their own mistakes.

With a loud bang from the city wall, Godfrey sounded the alarm for the enemy attack.

Many soldiers and players rushed to the scene and confronted a team of senior players.

There were not many of them, even in the eyes of many soldiers, that number was pitifully small, but in the eyes of Tim and the others, they all existed like evil spirits!

The heavy hammer giant Benjamin, the ice wizard Wen Nai, the combination of these two and the team behind them is enough to sweep away a small city.

not to mention……

"The equipment those people are wearing, I have only seen it in previous posts."

"They're all high-level players, how can we fight like this?"

"That magician is still a natural attribute, which is very rare. I heard that after the reform of "New World", the special skill points that everyone may obtain will be related to the talents in reality."

"That's true. Didn't it be mentioned in the new rules that the central brain wants to fully excavate human's magical talent and combat skills inheritance."

"Some time ago, the people from the exploration team said that this is the purpose of the central brain to trap us in the game!"

"Don't say that these are all gone. That kind of innate skill is not what ordinary people can expect. I would like to ask how to fight. Is it too late to surrender now?"

"..."

Seeing that the morale of the army began to waver before the full-scale war started, Burt frowned and said, "Irwin, the leader of this mercenary group, didn't come...but it doesn't matter if he comes or not, just Benjamin and Wen Nai, we can't be opponents."

Another player wearing an ordinary high hat also looked at Wen Nai standing on the city wall with fluttering white robes, and said, "As a mage, I should be defeated in a few moves with him. After a while, it is estimated that it is more appropriate to consider which position to lie down on."

Tim gritted his teeth, but his eyes were determined, "In short, I will do my best. No matter who they are or how talented they are, I can't watch Godfrey being trampled by these people."

An Qiluo couldn't help taking a few steps back, and said, "Then...then I'll focus on healing in the backcourt, this kind of rushing forward is not suitable for me.

It's a pity that there is not much time left for the players inside Godfrey to struggle. Soon, the opponent launched an attack again.

This time, it was a real strong-attack.

A blast of icy air gradually diffused along the city wall.

The hard city wall was slowly frozen, and the surface was covered with a layer of white ice, and the people standing on the city wall also felt the biting cold.

"Get out of the way, don't come into contact with those cold air!" Tim summoned up his courage and roared.

Auston, who happened to be next to him, ordered several generals to pass down the order to let the soldiers evacuate from the dangerous area first, and protect the dean a little later.

The kind of gas that will be frozen into an iceman as soon as it touches it is not something ordinary soldiers can resist. The only ones who can resist this kind of player skills are the magicians of the Holy Spirit Academy.

The dean stood on the city wall, a strong anger burst out from his hands, and immediately, the flames of anger surged to the sky!

Wen Nai didn't expect that among these urban residents, there would be magic talents... No, the other party is not a player, but just a local aborigine.

He bent the corners of his eyes. He had conquered quite a few small cities before, and it went smoothly. Instead, he developed the habit of underestimating the enemy.

Wen Nai stopped planning to directly freeze the whole city. This kind of long-lasting and time-consuming magic is only suitable for use when no one can resist it.

At this time, it is still necessary to concentrate energy and magic power to deal with the old man in front of him.

"Banjamin, you can figure it out first, I might not be able to get away to help you freeze the meat." Wen Nai shouted towards the city wall.

Leading his subordinates to stand under the city wall, Benjamin, who was about to go in, sneered, and replied in a heavy voice, "You deal with those annoying magicians, and leave the rest to me."

The warhammer raised in his hand is destined to make this area bloody!

At this time, the players standing on Godfrey's side also divided into two groups, one group went to help the dean, and together they fought against the ice magician Wen Nai.

Although it can't help much, it is still much better than ordinary students in the Holy Spirit Academy. At least a few players are quite talented and can use special magic skills.

The other group ran under the city wall and stopped in front of the man carrying the heavy hammer together with many soldiers. They could not retreat because there were ordinary people behind them.

"Everyone, get out of here and go home!" Once the city is broken, the refuge will lose its meaning of existence. Fix can only shout loudly to keep the civilians away from the streets of the battlefield as much as possible.

However, the people did not listen to him.

"Let's join the fight too."

"I'm still young, and I can still hold a weapon!"

"When the enemy comes in, it's not the same as dying. It's better to fight with you now."

"It's not Godfrey's custom to sit and wait. Let these bastards see the power of the free city."

The crowd was so emotional that Fix didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince has already gone to the city wall to assist the dean in fighting against the player who can manipulate ice. The second prince is escorting him in the palace. The third prince is still young and is in the stage of being protected.

Just as Fix was about to persuade the civilians to go back again, he was caught off guard when he saw the deterioration of the battle situation. The man carrying the heavy hammer severely wounded several soldiers and players in just a few minutes.

Under the pressure of such absolute strength, no matter how high the emotions are, it seems a bit ridiculous.

"Why, stop yelling?" Benjamin kicked Tim, who was clinging to him tightly, and said loudly, "Didn't you say that you will fight me to the death and never retreat?"

He knocked Burt away who was about to sneak attack with his hammer, and then just glared at him, causing Angelo to slump and collapse on the ground.

Alston had already been beaten until he vomited blood, and he managed to stand up with the support of Fix, but they could only stand in front of the civilians and die first.

Benjamin dragged the blood on the hammer on the ground, grinning and said, "Since you don't want to retreat by yourself, then I will help you!"

As soon as the words fell, he raised the sledgehammer and threw it into the crowd.

Suddenly, a chain bound his weapon, and a huge force along the chain knocked him down to the ground.

The subordinates behind Benjamin were taken aback. After everyone saw the chain that had been retracted and then disappeared into the air, one of the players recognized it. He said in a trembling voice, " The lock of heaven binding, legendary weapon!"

The players present couldn't help being stunned when they heard this.

After all, not everyone can recite the various top-quality equipment categories in "New World", but everyone is very clear about the division of equipment levels.

This is... a legendary weapon? !

Even if it is an advanced dungeon, you have to clear the level in the most difficult mode to get the rare equipment that may drop.

Even the sledgehammer with various combat skill effects is still not ranked.

When Benjamin heard the level of this weapon, besides the fear that arose from emotion, there was also a hint of greed.

He got up, and while guarding against possible attacks around him, he shouted, "Who is it?!"

"What kind of a hero is hiding? Come out if you have the guts!"

"You are not from Godfrey. After all, we have done a comprehensive investigation on this place before."

"Did you pass by unintentionally, or meddle in your own business?"

"We are members of the Glory Mercenary Group, under Lord Erwin's command, and we are against us, so you have to figure it out!"

"Seeing that we are going to deal with the local residents, we did it... It seems that you love this city deeply, and you want to protect Godfrey's royal family and civilians for a long time, right?"

In Benjamin's mind, as long as a person has something he wants to protect, that person also has a weakness, which is a very fatal one.

He can fully grasp this opportunity, he should be right!

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, the chain fell from the sky again, slapped Benjamin on the mouth severely, and threw him to the ground again.

Everyone looked in the direction in which the chain was retracted. This time, the visitor did not hide his body.

It was a tall young man with indifferent eyes. He walked slowly and unhurriedly, and stood in front of Benjamin.

Su Yun please narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at those people who dared to question his identity as a rebel.
