Unlimited World - 90% of the battle for productive jobs is ready

There were already a number of players gathered when we went outside the South Gate.

As a general outline of the operation, it is normal because nearly 150 players are to be placed at each gate, but it is still intimidating that so many people are gathered in this narrow range.

Many of the players gathered wear similar gear.

Some gear was made by Dwan and Yuzuki, and it's probably the Dragon Emperor gear series.

I hear that players who failed to deploy high-quality equipment in time chose Dragon Emperor gear, and I guess that leads to this situation.

"Now I want you to listen to me for a moment, everyone who's gathered."

While I was watching what was going on around me, Mr. White Wolf was climbing on a building like a bamboo and calling out.

"The defensive battle event production will begin soon. The opponent we will be fighting is supposedly a demon, or demonic monster. That's what the information clan looked into, but they haven't confirmed any demonic monsters on the other servers. Perhaps only this city Zero will fight against. I don't know what properties they have. Still, we've been well prepared for the last 10 days. Today and tomorrow, the last two days have been its total finish. Everybody ready?

The shouts returned against Mr. White Wolf's words.

Little information exists about the opponent to fight, but morale seems very high.

"That's a great vibe, Twa."

"Yeah, well, you do"

"But it was such a knoll during the beta last event, too. I miss you."

I would not be intolerant of the first Yuki for an event like this, but I think I will miss it but I won't get carried away because Ilis and I have a similar experience when I was beta.

I had more momentum then than I do now.

With that experience, I would be able to handle this extent.

"Now, everybody, I want you to get to the placement. As I contacted you in advance about the placement, first in the form of a tank lined up in the front row. Proximity attacker behind it. I need a long-distance attacker and a recovery job in the back. Be careful not to leave the front row tank too far."

As directed by Mr. White Wolf, the participants will continue to queue up.

I don't know how to attack you more than I don't know the formation of the enemy.

The selected formations on the player's side were in the form of centrally protruding formations, as in ".

Players lined up neatly.

That's just the participants on this server (city zero), and they form a smooth formation with little backlash.

"Then I'll let you go, too. Let's work together."

"Oh, and watch out for Misty Tsubaki."

"I just want to work with enough monsters to take me down..."

Misty Tsubaki joins the player's circle, saying something quite noisy.

If there's enough monsters out there to defeat him, won't the players be in total collapse?

"Twa kun. I'm with the backup unit, so it's time to go."

"Oh, okay. I don't think you'll have to worry about the attack that way, but be careful."

"Yeah, thanks. Well, I'll see you after the fight."

Waving his hand Yuki backwards toward the rear support unit.

Yuki's Kagura dance is a distance ignorer as long as he's on the Reid team, so he plans to keep buffing from the rear support unit at the rear end.

The attack won't be the first to arrive over there, and he's got about two escorts out of 'White Night' just in case.

Yuki's worries won't be necessary so far.

"Well, Illis. It's time for us to move."

"Right. It's time to move."

Those in the front row seem to have finished forming, and now the melee attackers are in the process of forming a formation.

Me and Ilis climb on top of a pair of players that are about three meters tall, sideways.

This is a place built for players who can attack at long distances, and we have other players with rifles and sorcerers.

I wonder if it would feel narrow to have a large number of people because they are built quite widely so that they can attack at the same time.

"Oh, is this [Devil Gun Ghost] also equipped with [Silent Shooter]? Sounds like a clam to me."

"Instead of coming off? We're not going to make it with these two."

"If you say so, you'll be with any of them, right? Anyway, we're fighting for the same purpose today, so let's get along."

"Right. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you."

"Oh, nice to meet you"

After an exchange of greetings with the players who were in the same row, me and Iris will see what happens on the plain that will be the battlefield.

The plains are strewn with lines like those drawn by black flames.

To be precise, two lines are stretched from the south gate toward the south at equal intervals.

According to the announcement from the operation, the inside of these two lines will be the battlefield.

What is the width of the field… roughly between 20 and 30 meters?

It looks like it's a few hundred meters deep though.

Fields outside this line will be off-limits five minutes before the battle begins, and players who were in the off-limits range at that time will be forced to transfer to the interior of the city?

We're about 8 minutes away from the start of the fight, so quarantine hasn't run yet, but it looks like no player is on the field to be quarantined from here on out.

In addition to the three other locations where we are located, there are also players deployed for ranged attacks.

Because it cannot be moved by itself, if the front line is in the form of being pushed up, it must descend from the front line and move on.

Conversely, in the event that the front line is pushed back, it is necessary to abandon the scene because it is probable that it will be destroyed.

The decision around here is up to each player, but we need to be careful not to miss an opportunity to attack because of a misjudgment.

As you prepare, you have 5 minutes left to start the war, and the field will be quarantined.

The line that was drawn with a black flame burns up and becomes a dark flame to build a wall on the field.

The height of the flaming wall is likely to be more than 10 meters, and it is impossible to know what other gates look like.

It gives me a whole lot of trouble.

Preparations continued steadily after the battlefield was quarantined and eventually all players were placed.

You have about 1 minute and 30 seconds left to start the fight.

Should we think we've made it to the critical point, or should we be impressed that discipline is often observed?

It was troubling, but it seemed that the players aligned from the top were motivated.

The player side is ready to fight and eventually it will be time to start the fight.

Then a huge gate appears at the front up to a full width of the battlefield to make a loud noise and descend to the ground.

The door has a grotesque decoration, which is exactly what I said was the Devil's Gate.

As I watched the gate statically, the gate slowly began to open, and the army of demons began to emerge from inside.

At the beginning are small demons about a metre tall, followed by demons of larger and more disappointing shape.

Each of the demons was armed with a variety of weapons, some of them thought to be sorcerers and demons.

You shouldn't be alarmed, although you don't know the details, because you will be resisted even if you try to see through the status in the breach.

Anyway, it's a dense attitude, so it's certain that if you get hit with a wide range of magic, the damage will be huge.

Eventually, when the armies of the devil came out of the gate, the gate from which the devil came out disappeared.

In the place where the gate disappeared there was an array of demons of great stature.

"Stupid people. I will not forgive you if you stand in our way. Return to the dust!

―――――――――――――――――――――――

A quest notification will be sent along with the demon army to begin the march.

There's still a little room until the collision, so I'll set up a nurse to see just the daemon in the lead.

Then only the monster name and level could be broken.

"The leading monster is named Lesser Demon, level 60!

"Yay, even the weakest one seems to be level 60. I imagined it."

"You really don't get your hands on me. Difficulty!

"It's time for Tanks and Demons to take over. We're ready to attack, too!

"Rikai. … confirm the start of the battle, then."

Our first hand was set to attack by Illis.

An arrow unleashed by Illis is released over the sky and pierced among the demon avant-gardes.

Then an invisible storm deals damage as it involves the demons around it.

It should be said that the skill first chosen by Illis was still a tempest-arrow.

Various attacks are being fired upon from other squadrons.

This game won't be damaged by FF (Friendly Fire), so you can attack without worrying about involving avant-garde players.

As a result, every attack has been carried out without any hesitation.

With all sorts of attacks being unleashed from my hands, I have not yet moved on to the attack myself.

Instead, they haven't activated their skills yet.

My first choice of skill is, of course, the Twelve Heavenly Generals.

But this skill, chanting time was very long.

The chanting time varies depending on the skill used, but the chanting time for the skill I'm trying to use is 20 seconds.

It's chanting time that's not good enough for a normal battle.

Though the chanting time is long, there is no risk that the chanting will be obstructed because so far it is a safe zone above this one.

And while the long 20-second chant is complete, I set the skill's range of effects and activate the skill.

"Ceremony Divine Invitation - Twelve Heavenly Generals, Come Out Teng Snake!

At the same time as the skill is used, there will be a "on the ground" at the location specified in the effect range.

It's the white flame that blows out of it.

It's a flame of purification that burns down the unclean.

The effect of Teng Snake is' Range attack against a range of 30 x 30 meters. Deal damage by divine and fire attributes'.

For a very wide range of effects, the damage to one enemy at a time seems to be no big deal, but as a whole it would have shredded considerably.

In fact, the avant-garde attack unit started slashing in at once by poking a flickering gap in this attack.

"Yeah, that's not a good grab."

"... what's wrong with you?"

"I knew it. Eh. [Demon Gun Ghost]"

The same player seems to be spooked, but I've earned the damage anyway, so I'll do it.

The Twelve Heavenly Generals are in 300 seconds of recast time, so I'll take out my rifle and chase him, too.

The battle has just begun, and the opening is dominant here, but we can't predict how we're going to fall ahead, and let's just say we attack with caution.
