Chapter 270: Mission to Defend the City

“Gosh! A mission with SSSSS difficulty!”

“Mountain Giant King? I remember someone encountering it. It seems to be above Level 40. I can’t see its specific attributes!”

“I think it’s Level 50!”

“This is the ruins of the war. Level 50 monsters can only be considered average. I think it’s very possible.”

“The Octopus Sea Demon is the Boss of the Lake of Death. I believe it’s Level 60!”

“Tyrant is in trouble now.”

“He’s done for…”

The players who heard the news felt a huge sense of danger.

Although they did not know the specific attributes of the two Bosses, they could guess some things from the name and the environment.

Especially the Mountain Giant King.

On the border between the Doomsday Forest and the Lake of Death, there were many such powerful Bosses. Some were even above 100 levels. Their entire bodies were like a mountain.

If such a Boss attacked Cold Desolate Dragon City, it would be a devastating blow. These thick city walls were useless because this huge Boss had the ability to easily cross the city wall and directly attack the interior of the weak city.

This result was definitely not what the players wanted to see. Compared to the destruction of the city, they wanted to see the city remain as it was.

“The situation is bad. We can’t let this Cold Desolate Dragon City be destroyed.”

“Although Tyrant is a little evil, it’s very convenient to teleport to the various areas of the Doomsday Forest.”

“That’s right. If not for the Cold Desolate Dragon City, those unscrupulous merchants in the Doomsday Forest would have made a comeback. They are much more black-hearted than Tyrant. A bottle of potion costs 3 silver coins!”

“Everyone, help Tyrant guard the city. This is good for us solo players.”

“Pfft! Help that black-hearted scoundrel defend the city? In his dreams. It’s already good that I won’t obstruct him, but you want me to help him defend the city? What a joke.”

The players discussed.

Some people wanted to help Lorne protect the city, but they were scolded by more people. At such a choice, opposition often attracted more people to defect, because they would do anything to achieve their goals.

Therefore, the voices on the forum became increasingly unfriendly. There were even people who wanted to cause trouble in the Cold Desolate Dragon City at this critical moment.

…

Ding!

“Game Announcement: Your city [Cold Desolate Dragon City] will be attacked by monsters in two days. As the City Lord, you can issue missions to the adventurers!”

“Warm reminder: More precious rewards can make the adventurers work harder. Please think about the contents of the mission later!”

At this moment, as the City Lord, Lorne received a relevant notification.

This mission was very difficult. After all, it was an SSSSS-level defense mission. In “Divine Realm”, this was the highest-level mission.

Of course, the quality of the mission was determined by the players and the game stages.

To the current players, even clearing a Gold Boss was a high difficulty S-grade mission.

To a newly built city, facing the attacks of two powerful Bosses was also a life and death problem.

However, Lorne was more optimistic.

He believed that this was an abnormally simple test. It was definitely not enough to destroy the entire Cold Desolate Dragon City.

According to the game progress, monsters were produced. This was the basic operation method of the game system. Now that the players were only Level 30, it was impossible for a Boss above Level 50 to fight the players head-on.

This was because when the difference between the two sides exceeded 20 levels, the monsters would be invincible. Under normal circumstances, such a scene would not happen in a game.

Therefore, Lorne believed that the Boss should not be above Level 45.

A Boss of this level still had the ability to cross the outer city wall of Cold Desolate Dragon City, but the monsters led by the Boss would definitely not be able to cross the 70-meter tall giant city wall.

Coupled with the powerful defense and 60 meters wide of the city wall of Cold Desolate Dragon City, the players guarding the city only needed to stand on the city wall and shoot at the monsters below.

Everyone knew how simple such a battle was.

If the guild leaders of those large guilds had enough judgment, they should know that this event was definitely a good opportunity to quickly level up.

As for the only character that needed consideration in the battlefield?

It was actually the two Bosses.

The only thing the guilds were afraid of were these two Bosses. Whether Tyrant could kill the other party was an important condition of this war.

They were all thinking about this.

Only Lorne was not worried.

In his eyes, the levels of these two Bosses would definitely not exceed 50. Bosses that were not above 50 would not be considered invincible by him.

Therefore, he was absolutely confident about the battle in two days.

“Event mission?”

Lorne thought about it and decided to make it an event mission.

After all, this was a defensive battle. Cold Desolate Dragon City needed to face the attacks of a vast number of monsters. Although Lorne did not think that they could break through the defense of the city wall, an attack that was too powerful would still cause damage to the city wall. In the future, if he wanted to repair these damaged city walls, he would definitely have to lose a large number of ancient rocks. Although there were still many of these rocks in the city, they were still extremely rare materials after all. He had to reduce the expenditure. In the event of an even larger war in the future, the resources that were preserved could at least allow Cold Desolate Dragon City to last for a longer time.

With that in mind, Lorne set up a city defense mission.

Soon, a new regional announcement sounded in the entire ruins of the war.

Ding!

“Iron Skull City Announcement (Cold Desolate Dragon City): City Lord of Cold Desolate Dragon City, Tyrant, has issued an event mission—[Protecting Cold Desolate Dragon City]!”

“Mission Description: Any adventurer can enter the Cold Desolate Dragon City and help the Cold Desolate Dragon City resist the attacks of the monsters. All players who participate in the event will automatically obtain the ordinary VIP title of the Cold Desolate Dragon City. Please participate eagerly.”

“Ding!”

“Ding!”

The announcement sounded three times.

However, the players who heard this announcement were stunned.

They all thought that Tyrant had wrongly edited the announcement for the event mission.

This was because on this ‘wrong’ document, it actually wrote, ‘All players who participate in the event will automatically obtain the ordinary VIP title of the Cold Desolate Dragon City’.
