Chapter 544 The Battle of the Hozen Forest
In the eastern part of the Pandaren Empire, Wulin Village outside the Hozen Forest.
More than 60 pandaren and more than 400 players formed a three-column defense line outside Wulin Village to resist the invasion of the hozen army.
However, there were too many hozens attacking this time. The defense line composed of players and pandas could not resist the hozen attack at all, and loopholes were quickly torn out in the entire defense line.
The nimble and quick hozens seized these loopholes and rushed into the defense line with a cry of "oooooo~" and ran towards the village behind without looking back. The players and the pandamen could only stare, helpless.
"Captain Green, our mission this time is probably going to fail." A player looked at their leader [Gatling Gun] with a sad face.
“Alas, there is no way.” Gatling is a middle-aged uncle in his 40s and the leader of their 500-person mercenary group [Grimm’s Fairy Tales].
He sighed helplessly: "The Pandaren have transferred all their main defense forces to the western front. The defensive capabilities here are seriously insufficient. It can only be said that it will be a matter of time before they are broken through."
A magician girl wearing red cloth armor in the group said at this time: "But Uncle Green, this is already the sixth village we have lost. If we lose it again, our mission reward may become negative!"
well!
well!
There was a sigh in the group.
Don't you want to give up this useless mission and go for the generous rewards of melee combat on the Western Front?
However, looking at the pandaren guards gritting their teeth and holding on, and listening to the cries of the pandaren women and children who were robbed by the hozens, they still could not make up their minds to leave.
Once they leave, the hozens will swarm in like a natural disaster, and countless pandas will have their families destroyed.
Just when [Gatt Gun] opened his mouth to say something, a giant blue portal opened in front of them!
The portal unfolded very quickly. It was just a small dot at the beginning. In less than 5 seconds, it had expanded to 40 meters wide and 60 meters high.
“Come on! Destroy the hozen!”
“Pandaren will never be slaves!”
A large number of shouts of killing rang out from the portal.
Players poured out of the portal like a tide, and a large number of arrows and magic rained down on the hozens.
Seeing this magic weapon descend from the sky, the players of the [Grimm's Fairy Tales] mercenary group were naturally surprised!
“Great, we’re here with reinforcements!”
“Where did these reinforcements come from? They came at the right time!”
“Let’s find someone to ask first.”
【Gatling Gun】stepped forward, preparing to ask a player who had just rushed out of the portal.
But as soon as he took two steps, his body froze in place. No need to ask now, he has already found the answer.
Because right now, a game prompt sounded in his ear.
“Ding, you trigger the scenario battle mission [Battle of Hozen Forest], do you accept it?”
"accept."
“Ding, congratulations on triggering the large-scale scene battle [Battle of Hozen Forest].”
“Mission introduction: The Pandaren Empire’s defenses are empty, which gives the Hozen tribe, which originally lived in the forest, an opportunity to attack the Pandaren villages in a large scale.
The special envoy of the Plantagenet Empire [Nemesis] discovered the potential threat of the hozen clan and decided to launch a counterattack against the hozen clan and drive the hozen clan back into the forest! "
“Battle victory conditions: drive the hozen troops back to the forest. Progress (0%)” “Campaign rewards: Get rewards based on the progress percentage!”
And it’s not just this one task.
After accepting the campaign mission, [Gatling Gun] and other players in the mercenary group received various side mission prompts one after another.
These side tasks include attacking and killing hozen troops, as well as putting out fires in the rear, rescuing the wounded and recovering losses.
These side tasks have one thing in common, that is, the rewards are particularly generous!
The players of [Green Mercenary Group] all found that the rewards of the side mission assigned to them by Mr. Ke were at least three times higher than the rewards of the original mission they received, and it was not that difficult to complete!
This greatly encouraged the players of the Green Mercenary Group!
“Let’s go and kill the hozen!”
“Kill the hozen back into the forest!”
The players of the mercenary group also shouted loudly, their emotions were high, and they blew the horn of counterattack.
Such things are also happening in several surrounding Pandaren villages.
Su Yu placed 8 giant portals on the front line, each transporting 10,000 players. Upon arrival, the players immediately launched a counterattack against the hozen.
As for Su Yu himself, while issuing various side tasks to the players, he activated [Invisibility] and flew secretly into the Hozen Forest.
The Hozen clan has several artifacts!
Maybe it’s because the silly hozens are stupid and lucky. The artifacts of the hozen clan are no worse in functionality than the artifacts owned by humans!
So Su Yu secretly sneaked into the hozen forest to see if he could "borrow" one or two artifacts from the hozens for use.
In the forest.
The commander of the hozen army is a sixth-level peak hozen. His strength and intelligence are no less than those of humans.
He sensed the sudden increase in pressure on the front line through his clan's bloodline. It should be the arrival of enemy reinforcements.
So it howled twice and led its subordinate high-level hozens towards the front line, preparing to go into battle to kill the enemy in person.
The route of advancement of these high-level hozens points directly to the area with the largest number of players, which is also the Wulin Village where the [Green Mercenary Group] is located.
The players in Wulin Village were having a great time killing, and the hozens were retreating steadily under their attacks. They were about to rush back to the forest, but at this time, the high-level hozens arrived!
After arriving at the front line, Commander Hozen did not act hastily. Instead, he first observed the current situation.
There are more hozens on our side than there are adventurers from other worlds, but because the hozens have no cooperation at all and can only fight with brute force, they are now being beaten very badly.
But Commander Hozen doesn’t care.
While commanding his fifth- and sixth-level high-level hozens to rush forward to eliminate the players, he placed at his feet an artifact given to him by the king—the [Hozen War God Statue].
The Hozen War God Statue is a statue of a two-meter-tall hozen, wearing chain-link gold armor and holding a metal stick with the words "Dinghai Shenzhen" written on it.
This war statue was carved by a master stonemason of the Hozen clan in commemoration of the first Hozen King [Sun Wukong].
The [War God Statue] was activated by the Hozen Commander, and layers of red light emitted from the statue, blessing all the Hozens.
With the blessing of red light, the size of the frontline hozen immediately expanded by 30%, and its strength, defense, blood volume, recovery, and speed were all increased by more than 50%!
Players found that the "tofu" that they could cut at will suddenly turned into an iron plate, and the effects of their various attacks were greatly reduced. Instead, a hozen claw would cause them to lose half of their health!
Coupled with the high-level hozens speeding in the sky, all players realized that something was not going well!
