The team occupied the city wall, and Yi Tianchen, Liu Yuhan, and the others immediately moved forward.
At this moment, they had to face a harsh reality: due to the Sky Bridge, their Catapult and Arrow Tower had become ineffective. Not to mention the massive and cumbersome Catapult, even the relatively lightweight Arrow Tower could not be effectively deployed on the less than ten-meter-wide Sky Bridge.
Moreover, the enemy was positioned above them, not directly in front!
"Next, it's going to be a bloody battle," a heavy look appeared in Yi Tianchen's eyes.
In front of this perilous Sky Bridge, their options were extremely limited. To successfully cross this Sky Bridge would require countless sacrifices—this inevitably reminded them of the struggles faced by revolutionary predecessors at Luding Bridge.
Currently…
The situation they found themselves in was not much different from that of the revolutionary pioneers. Once they stepped onto this Sky Bridge, there was no turning back; beneath them lay an abyss hundreds of meters deep. All they could rely on was their own bodies, sacrificing themselves to gain every small step forward.
"Li Tielong, this is up to you."
After giving the instruction, Yi Tianchen exchanged a glance with Liu Yuhan. The Dragon-Slaying Eight-Man Team swiftly mounted their flying mounts and simultaneously took to the air, leaping across the several hundred meters height difference between the city wall and the Base of Operations.
"Don't worry, I won't fail my mission!"
Li Tielong's voice echoed behind them. What lay before Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan was the defense of King's Guild's Base of Operations—a multi-directional array of Arrow Towers and ranged classes forming a blockade that turned the entire Sky Bridge into an iron barrel. Breaking through was clearly impossible.
Thus, Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan decided to employ diversion tactics!
However, Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) and his companions seemed to have anticipated this. They not only established a tight blockade along the entire Sky Bridge but also stationed numerous ranged classes in the air for interception. Although Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan could use their flying mounts to reach above the Base of Operations, they found it impossible to get close.
Furthermore, any sign of approach from Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan would immediately trigger attacks from waves of ranged classes.
In such a scenario where both ground and air were under siege, if Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan attempted a forced breakthrough, the outcome would likely be tragic; all their living forces could be gradually worn down by the enemy.
This was indeed the initial tactic arranged by Zeng Jian and others from King's Sword Soul!
"President, boss, we can't find any opportunity to get close at all!" Yesterday's Fireworks said helplessly after being forced back by a barrage of arrows. Just moments ago, he had attempted to push forward into an opening, only to be met with an onslaught from over a hundred archers surrounding him, ultimately forcing him to retreat.
"That's right, we need to break through somehow!"
Liu Yuhan drew her Shattered Dream and urged her mount to rush forward rapidly. She unleashed a Multishot attack, but due to the high speed of her mount, the attack ended up being ineffective. The collective assault from the enemy forced her to retreat quickly after just a brief advance.
"Haha..."
A loud laugh came from the members guarding the Base of Operations, followed by another voice saying, "Brothers, hold your ground! Don't give them any chance..."
Meanwhile, on the city wall, the situation was intense!
Under Li Tielong's command, the first team of fifty knights held their shields in front, followed closely by over a hundred archers and mages. A team of priests was sandwiched in between, and although a squad of Summoned Beasts followed at the rear, they were positioned in front of the knights to draw enemy fire.
Soon, the team advanced onto the Sky Bridge...
However, as they entered the enemy's fire zone, the opposing ranged classes immediately launched their attack. The first targets were dozens of Summoned Beasts that faced the brunt of the assault. Damage numbers soared into the air in large clusters, followed by bursts of Deathly White Light.
"Damn it!"
With a cry of frustration, the summoner whose Summoned Beasts had fallen retreated collectively. The death of their Summoned Beasts allowed the knight team to advance about twenty meters. The priests quickly cast healing spells while various Status effects were applied in time. Archers and mages began their counterattack, suppressing the enemy's firepower.
However...
On this Sky Bridge, which was less than ten meters wide, the team was compressed into a long line due to their numbers. The obstruction faced by the leading knights made it difficult for the output team in the middle to form effectively. Meanwhile, the enemy's blocking force was far greater than theirs; each wave of attacks resulted in several bursts of white light signaling death.
In less than ten minutes, the first assault on the Sky Bridge ended in failure.
Hundreds of players left the Guild War map, and the current state of the Sky Bridge showed no signs of progress. If the subsequent teams had not retreated in time, they would have faced elimination as well.
However...
Due to this brave attempt, Li Tielong gained a clear understanding of the enemy's firepower distribution in the first area blocking the Sky Bridge. Unfortunately, the density of their defenses made it impossible to break through one by one. The opposing team had clearly anticipated this; their strategically placed fire points allowed for regional interaction, multi-target kills, and a comprehensive layout that created a web of crossfire.
This indicated that Zeng Jian and his team were not unprepared.
Or rather, from the moment they chose to establish their Base of Operations here, Zeng Jian and his team had thoroughly understood the situation at this Base of Operations and arranged their fire points based on specific conditions. Their goal was to turn this nearly three hundred meter long Sky Bridge into a path to oblivion for their opponents.
Moreover...
The enemy had not only heavily fortified the Sky Bridge but also organized personnel on the cliffs to connect through narrower Sky Bridges. They constructed fire points on recessed cliff faces, achieving nearly complete fire coverage over the main area. Additionally, several Arrow Towers were strategically placed above the Base of Operations to counter potential aerial threats, effectively neutralizing attacks from Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan, who possessed flying mounts.
It could be said that this was where King's Guild's Base of Operations truly found its strength.
As for the so-called city gate at the foot of the mountain, it had become nothing more than a decoration. All defensive measures were concentrated within the gate itself, utilizing the mountain's natural defenses and the only connection to the Base of Operations via the Sky Bridge, elevating the entire defense of the Base of Operations to an impregnable level.
This was something Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan had never anticipated...
