Yet Zhou Tian didn’t take action personally, he merely sent his replica beastmen out. As such, when Zhou Tian’s replica beastmen attacked the players at the respawn points, even if they became the collective target of those players, it wouldn’t affect the overall situation. Under such circumstances, as the replica beastmen moved to attack, the players, unable to come up with effective countermeasures, were indeed suppressed significantly by Zhou Tian’s minions at that time.
It could almost be said that Zhou Tian’s replica beastmen immediately subdued the momentum of those players. With the strength of the replica beastmen, targeting any player, they could take them down with their power. Consequently, under Zhou Tian’s deliberate control, those advanced players crowded at the respawn point, unless they stayed back, would invariably fall to Zhou Tian’s replica beastmen the moment they went to the frontline.
In this way, as one player after another continuously fell to Zhou Tian and his beastmen, even if they were interested in the current City Defense Battle, they would no longer dare persist. After all, at this time, the cost of their persistence was too great, so great that almost every time they went online, they would be killed by Zhou Tian. freewёbnoνel.com
As a result, although the players’ deaths did not lead to a total loss like Zhou Tian’s monsters, more or less, in terms of both level and equipment, the players would certainly suffer some losses after dying.
Given the situation of the players, their insistence to go online was merely to gain some advantage. When they realized that their continual persistence only brought losses to their side without any other gains, the players’ original mentality naturally underwent an inevitable change at that time.
Who would do something that brought no benefit?
For the NPCs, it was necessary to resist Zhou Tian’s invasion, even if it meant risking their lives, knowing how formidable Zhou Tian was. Because for the NPCs, the territory Zhou Tian invaded was their living space, and if they truly let Zhou Tian occupy their castle, it would amount to him compressing their living space. For their own benefit and that of their descendants, the NPCs would naturally dare to fight Zhou Tian to the death.
But just because the NPCs were willing to risk their lives against Zhou Tian, it didn’t mean the players would make the same decision. After all, for the players, all of this was just a game. ƒrēewebnovel.com
Because of the players’ mentality, they usually acted without too many concerns, even if the monsters were extremely powerful. But once targeted by the players, the monsters would suffer heavily. In an event like the current Monster Siege, the players could also attack the monsters recklessly without regard for losses. While such actions might not always be effective, it had to be acknowledged that this mindset of the players often caused the greatest headache for the monsters.
However, it was also because of the players’ mentality that they presented a difficult problem for the NPCs at this time.
Because the players took everything as a game, they didn’t care too much about their losses, nor were they overly concerned about winning this war. In the players’ eyes, not to mention this Monster Siege Event, even the whole battle situation between the monsters and NPCs might not be of much concern to them.
To the players, if there was a profit to be made, they would be willing to help the NPCs. Even if it meant fighting many monsters, it wasn’t a big deal. But if the players felt that their actions were meaningless, that fighting Zhou Tian and his monsters was a waste of time, and that there was no need to even waste time playing the game, then even if Zhou Tian and his monsters annihilated all the NPC forces, the players would probably just stand by and watch.
Because of the players’ mentality, Zhou Tian initially found it quite troublesome to defeat them. Yet once Zhou Tian managed to crush the players, even if he didn’t destroy that teleportation point, it was doubtful many players would choose to enter the castle again.
Thus, to exclude the players’ forces from the upcoming City Defense Battle, destroying the current teleportation point was indeed crucial. But the true core tactic still required Zhou Tian to scare the players, because if he couldn’t scare them, even if Zhou Tian destroyed the teleportation point, it would not guarantee that the players didn’t have other means to join the battle.
At least from the current situation, Zhou Tian had already accomplished much of this with his abilities. The lower players aside, the advanced ones were already considering a retreat. Even though not all advanced players had chosen to exit, the fact that a portion had stopped going online indicated that some players were backing out. Once the first retreats, the second will follow, and if nothing changes, the total collapse of the player forces was just a matter of time.
