Hu Die Lan
Chapter 283 Looking Down From Above
Just as Chen Guo was saying a few words, Ye Xiu's Lord Grim had already jumped up twice and fired his gun. The character drew a perfect arc in the air, landing steadily where he needed to land.
How to jump up this clock tower? In theory, Chen Guo knew. She had watched Su Mucheng's videos and studied them thoroughly. Now watching Ye Xiu's operation, it was exactly the same as the method in the video. Every choice of foothold was the same as what she knew.
The only difference was that when Chen Guo did it, she always missed the mark; but Ye Xiu, at least so far, had succeeded twice.
Chen Guo started to get nervous again.
She knew very well that with jumping, as long as you make one mistake, all your previous efforts are wasted. She had failed like this countless times.
"Guoguo, look over here." At this time, Tang Rou pulled her. Chen Guo turned her head and saw that Tang Rou's Soft Mist had also run to the bottom of the clock tower, and her perspective was facing Lord Grim, who was jumping on the clock tower.
Jump, shoot; jump, shoot...
Slow down!
Chen Guo wanted to say something, but was afraid of disturbing Ye Xiu and didn't dare to speak.
Lord Grim's upward jump process was almost non-stop. Except for some turns, he would jump up after stepping on a foothold. The character seemed to be pasted on the stone wall of the clock tower and slid upward. In a moment, he was already a quarter of the way up the clock tower.
Chen Guo's palms were sweaty with nervousness, and she felt very stressed by the headset on her head. After taking it off casually, she could hear Ye Xiu's operation sound very clearly.
One stop, one pause, the sound of the mouse and keyboard was very comfortable to listen to just from the rhythm. Watching the character's jump with this rhythm felt like a video with background music, complementing each other perfectly.
In the blink of an eye, the clock tower had been jumped up halfway, and the Christmas thieves chasing after Lord Grim had already rushed to the bottom of the clock tower. Was the NPC's wall-climbing skill just for show? Without a word, they lay on the clock tower and began to chase upwards.
In the streets around the clock tower, Christmas thieves were constantly rushing out. Lord Grim was only moving upwards at this time, which was equivalent to being stationary on the plane map. The 341 Christmas thieves finally had a unified gathering point, and more and more of them were piled up under the clock tower, crowded and noisy. Then, in a very orderly manner, they surrounded the clock tower and began to chase upwards in rows.
Chen Guo saw that Ye Xiu's clock tower jump was simply without a way out. If he made a mistake and fell at this time, he would immediately be submerged in the sea of Christmas thieves, and one mouthful of spit from each person would be enough to kill him.
The suspense film turned into a horror film, and Chen Guo's heart was in her throat, almost afraid to watch.
Up, up!
Lord Grim's position was constantly rising, without hesitation or mistakes. Some difficult places in Chen Guo's memory were also skipped as if walking on flat ground.
And at the end, just as he was about to reach the top, Chen Guo suddenly screamed: "Ah!"
On the screen, jump, shoot, Lord Grim's method was still the same, but this time, the character was a little bit away from the top of the clock tower and couldn't get up!
In a flash of lightning, Chen Guo suddenly remembered that the last place was slightly higher, and there were some requirements for the recoil of the guns and the character's weight. Ye Xiu rushed to this place to jump, afraid that he was not prepared for this last difficulty!
Chen Guo watched helplessly as Lord Grim failed to jump to the top of the tower and began to fall. Just as she was regretting why she had forgotten to remind him, she suddenly heard a series of rapid operations from Ye Xiu next to her. Then Lord Grim on the screen suddenly raised his weapon and opened it with a whoosh.
"What are you doing? A parachute?" Chen Guo muttered inexplicably, but the changes of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella did not stop there. The opened umbrella surface suddenly retracted into the umbrella ribs, and the eight umbrella ribs were combined in pairs, and then suddenly rotated.
"Damn, no way!" Chen Guo shouted. This time she recognized it. This was the Mechanic's skill: Mechanical Wings.
Lord Grim's fall was also stopped immediately. After shaking a few times in the air, he suddenly rose and floated forward. Then Ye Xiu made another operation, and the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella returned to its normal appearance, and Lord Grim landed steadily on the top of the clock tower.
"You this thing, it even has the function of a mechanical box!" Chen Guo said in amazement.
The mechanical box is a special equipment for Mechanics. Although Mechanics are also classified into the Gunners, in fact, most of the skills are not used with the guns in their hands, but with this strange expansion equipment, the mechanical box.
The mechanical box does not occupy the normal equipment column, but is placed in the package, which is more like a prop. It itself does not have attack power or other attributes, but it will be attached with some skill level upgrades or other attributes, and among the Gunners' guns, there is never a mechanic skill attached.
So for a Mechanic, it is considered to have a complete weapon system only when he carries a gun in his hand and a mechanical box around his waist. This is the special feature of this profession.
And the Mechanical Wings skill, although it is shared by Gunners below level 20, it cannot be used without a mechanical box.
"Do you have a mechanical box in your bag?" Chen Guo was still asking.
"No, it comes with a mechanical box function," Ye Xiu said.
"Damn, what kind of monster weapon do you have!" Chen Guo was speechless.
Ye Xiu smiled and said nothing, turning the character's perspective.
"Oh, someone!" Chen Guo shouted again. She was startled to see someone on the top of the clock tower, but then she recognized the name, Wind Following the Stream, and recognized that she was one of the partners who had helped Tang Rou before.
"She can jump up too..." Chen Guo muttered, feeling a little sour in her heart. This girl was also a Launcher, and she was with Ye Xiu and Tang Rou. Chen Guo couldn't help but compare her own Launcher with others. Now that she saw that she could jump to the top of the clock tower, she couldn't compare with her in the flying cannon operation alone.
"I sweat, don't need so much!" Chen Guo muttered in a low voice, but Ye Xiu didn't hear it because he was wearing a headset. He was talking to Su Mucheng in the game. He opened a transaction window with Su Mucheng's Wind Following the Stream, and traded a large number of potions, all mana potions, which filled his load.
"Just in case!" Su Mucheng said.
"Not used to such a high load," Ye Xiu said.
"Anyway, you don't need to move too fast now," Su Mucheng said.
"Not necessarily!" Ye Xiu manipulated Lord Grim to the edge of the clock tower and looked down. The clock tower was extremely high, and the Christmas thieves below looked like ants, swarming around the clock tower and climbing upwards.
Tang Rou, at the bottom of the clock tower, was looking up at the top of the tower, which was blurry and unclear. Only when a thunderbolt flashed across the sky could she see the two figures above.
Tang Rou was able to reach the clock tower one step ahead, of course, because she had the advantage of being next to Ye Xiu. It was so hard for the other guild players to find Lord Grim, and when they finally caught up, they were a little late. Those who came faster still managed to appreciate Lord Grim's heroic posture of jumping to the top of the clock tower.
"This is... riding a tiger and finding it hard to get off?" After receiving this message, Blue River said to System Hermit in an extremely helpless tone.
System Hermit was also silent.
They had already anticipated that these Christmas thieves were likely to be eaten by Lord Grim, who had the advantage of being high up and looking down. The other guild players, who did not know Lord Grim's true identity, were still feeling incredible about him jumping to the top of the clock tower.
However, unbelievable meant that the other party had made an unexpected move, and they would be surprised and incredulous, but at least they would not feel too annoyed.
Chen Yehui was extremely annoyed at this time. He knew that Lord Grim was Ye Qiu, and he would not be surprised if he could jump to the top of the clock tower. But since he would not be surprised, why didn't he think of this before? He thought that Ye Qiu wanted to disgust them and force the guild players to help him kill all the Christmas thieves, so he stood still, but he didn't think that Ye Qiu had a backhand plan for their inaction. If he could have thought of this earlier and used the terrain of the clock tower, Chen Yehui could have guessed this method to some extent.
But now, everything was too late.
When Chen Yehui personally arrived at the clock tower, he was as dumbfounded as all the players who arrived. The number of Christmas thieves was so large that it was impossible to count. It didn't feel too obvious when they were running around the city before, but now that they were all gathered here, the visual impact was too strong.
All the Christmas thieves were blind and deaf, completely ignoring the large number of players behind them, and rushed towards the clock tower in the middle like worshiping a shrine. Those who were brave enough had already climbed more than halfway, but what could the players do? They could only stare blankly here.
Chen Yehui turned his perspective and looked around. He saw Car Front, Blue River, Night Walker Cold Pool, Lone Drinker, Backlight Bomb, Misty Rain Vastness...
The well-known presidents of each guild in the tenth district were all gathered here, standing together, looking up like idiots... looking up at the figure who was high above, who could not be seen without thunder.
The Christmas thieves in the front row were about to reach the top. A lightning bolt suddenly flashed across the sky, just in time to let people see clearly. The figure on the top of the clock tower was not one, but two. At the same time as the lightning flashed, two flames spewed out from the muzzles of the two figures' guns.
A ball of fire exploded on the stone wall of the clock tower, and everyone clearly heard a shrill scream. The Christmas thief who was blown up by the air wave was lifted into the air, and what could he grab in the air? Didn't he just fall down headfirst like this?
These are all points! These are all gifts! The players thought with heartache.
