Vol 21 Chapter 230: Call for help and coping strategies

After understanding why Amakusa Tenbei knew about Matsumoto's identity, the next step was to ask his intention.
For our question, Amakusa Tenbei is of course an easy answer, because this is his task.
"That's to say, you're here to move soldiers?" After the brief introduction of Amakusa Ten-Beiwei, we finally figured out what happened.
According to the introduction of Amakusa Tenbei, he is a subordinate of a local city guard, and he originally came here to get the help of Matsumoto Masa. The reason for asking for help was the disappearance of people in their city.
Yes, it is a missing person. Their city is said to have lost more than 30 people in the last week. In terms of the cruelty of the world in "Zero", let alone a city lose 30 people a week, even if it loses 30 people a day is not a big deal. The reason why the loss of more than thirty people made the city owner rush to send someone out for help is because the loss was not ordinary people, but monks.
The reason why the monks' loss caused the city owner to be so alarmed was mainly because of the environment here. The arrangement of forces in various places in the game is roughly this. First of all, the lowest level is freedom. They are like the ordinary people in reality, belonging to the lowest level of existence. The next level is local forces, that is, political groups. However, because of the existence of the protoss, the political groups in the game did not form an obvious concept of the state, only a less stable city-state system. Generally, cities are independent, or a large city controls several small cities around it, and generally does not have a large management span.
Above the political group is the protoss power, but this does not refer to the protoss itself. For example, the Buddhist monk refers to the monk. The power of the heavenly gods in the world is Taoist, and the two temples of light and darkness are actually similar. After all, more of the two temples are humans, angels or demons. The protoss exists only at the high levels of the two temple forces, and they will not run outside. The following specific tasks are all transferred from the staff recruited from free training.
These protoss are the real protoss forces on the world's agents, such as the headquarters of the two temples, such as the Buddhist gate, heaven, and light and darkness. Of course, they are not top-level existence, because there is still a superordinate pressure on it. As for players ... this group is actually reading. To be comprehensive, players are actually the most important group. After all, games exist for players. Any of the above forces can be used, but there can be no players. However, the status of players in the game is actually high or low, and the distribution is very chaotic.
Fragmented players are actually a kind of existence that is on par with local political groups, higher than free, but subject to the protoss institutions, after all, many businesses such as transfers must rely on their protoss institutions to provide. As for local political groups, this is basically the same as scattered players. Players are not afraid of them, but they cannot easily offend them.
Although the status of scattered players is not high, the status of players with groups will be higher. Even in a small guild, it can be half as high as local political forces, but it is still slightly lower than the temple organization. Of course, with the strength of individual guilds, this status is also unstable. If you are a member of a small guild with only thirty or fifty people, and there is not even a master in the guild, then joining such a guild is actually similar to no guild. No one cares about you at all. However, if it is a medium-sized guild with thousands of people, there can be some second- and third-class experts in the guild that can support the scene, the status will be significantly different, at least much higher than the local political groups, see People who come to the temple do not have to be too careful, as long as you don't go overboard, they will bear you.
If the guild power further expands, such as some well-known guilds, with a scale of more than 10,000 people, there will be a large group of first- and second-line masters in the guild, and then there will be several top players on the battle list. People in such guilds basically do not need to care about the offices of local protoss. Just don't offend those true Protoss forces.
As for the top guilds, that is, the level of our Frost Rose League, basically as long as you don't get too worried, the general forces really don't need to care too much. After all, if we go out, even the real Protoss forces will be destroyed, not one or two. In addition to the strength of the heavenly courts, we need to be careful. The general Protoss will be polite when they see our guilds. No matter what you think in your heart, at least everyone on the surface must nod their heads and pretend to be kind. After all, those who dare to fangs with us are pretty dead, and as long as there is no problem in their heads, they basically know what they should do.
Of course, speaking of the status of the player actually depends on the strength. If you have the ability to kill God, then you do n’t have to be afraid of yourself. If you ca n’t fight anyone, you can only be a man with a tail. This is actually in reality. It's not much different, but in reality it is not a personal combat force, but the game basically uses weapons and magic to speak.
Because the game has such a power level division, the first level controls the first level, and the level is still very strict. This Indian Buddhist gate has been maimed by our Frost Rose Alliance and Heavenly Court. Now the residual forces are either annexed by Indian forces or they are lingering. The Buddhist forces in China have all been merged into the heaven or the demon side. Of course, our Frost Rose Alliance has also caught a lot of protoss who have brought chaos and order closer. However, although the main line of the Buddhist gate has been interrupted, the sphere of influence of the Buddhist group of the Buddhist gate is not just that. In fact, Yueben is also a country heavily affected by Buddhism. Naturally, there is a Buddhist influence here, but because the main vein is broken, the Buddhist influence in Yueben area is much weaker than before.
However, although the Buddhist power is now weakened, the problem is that the other protoss of Yueben have not done much.
The protoss forces in Yueben are basically similar to China. First of all, the two temples of light and darkness as the basic structure also exist in Japan, but these temples belong to the protoss institutions of the leading class, except for their strength in Europe, they are not the main protoss forces in other regions. The two temples of light and darkness in this area have not developed well since the beginning of the game, and their competitiveness is not as good as that of their own local deities, so they have always been very weak.
In addition to these two temples, Yueben also has three demigod forces. Among these three protoss forces are Buddhism, Gao Tianyuan Protoss and Demon. These three forces are similar to the protoss forces in China. For example, the Buddhists and demons also exist in China, but the Gaotianyuan Protoss and Tianting are different. However, there is a bit of chaos, that is, the relationship between the Gao Tianyuan Protoss and the demon in the Japanese version is not the same as the heaven and the demon in our country.
Now the relationship between Tianting and the demon has eased a little bit because of the appearance of the Frost Rose Alliance, because under my threading, the Tianting demon worked together to fix the Buddhist gate, so the two communities have certain common interests. , This contradiction does not seem so fierce.
However, the relationship between the Gao Tianyuan Protoss and the demon on the Japanese side is more different. The relationship between these two protoss forces has been a bit chaotic from the beginning. Some demons themselves are members of the Gao Tianyuan Protoss. Many of the Gao Tianyuan Protoss are deities exiled from the mainland. Anyway, the Gao Tianyuan Protoss has a very strong composition. Miscellaneous, and also divided into several large factions, one of which is basically all composed of demons. In this way, the relationship between the Gao Tianyuan Protoss and the demon becomes more chaotic. The two forces can be said to be one force, and the two forces can be. It is very chaotic anyway.
In addition to these three protoss forces, there is also a protoss power that is not a protoss power, which is the half-protoss power I said. This protoss power is called Yueben Shintoism. Its religion has absorbed the two cultures of Buddhism and Taoism in China, and it has softened Yueben ’s own demon culture. It is a hodgepodge anyway, and the most terrible thing is that Yueben does not exist at all. A Protoss group corresponds to this Shinto. Some of the deities worshipped in Shintoism are the Buddhists in Japan or even the Chinese or Indian Buddhist gates, and some are the gods in heaven, and part of the deities of the Gao Tianyuan deity, and there are even a lot of demon ghosts. In short, they worship The gods belong to multiple protoss forces, and are not a collective at all.
It is said that this kind of power without a protoss superstructure is not a protoss power, but because Shinto has a large group of high-level combat power, they can still stabilize the local political groups without challenging other protoss, so they came up with Such a semi-authentic protoss power.
After counting the protoss forces in Yueben, you can find that the protoss forces in Yueben have indeed appeared a certain vacuum. For a Buddhist door, the main vein was cut off, and the rest was the branch on the side of Yueben. A Gao Tianyuan Protoss, before letting me bring the guilt of the guild to a scourge, but now there is a bit of weakness, even Tian Zhao that the leader of the Gao Tianyuan Protoss was severely injured, and now the strength has not been fully restored. The two shrines will not talk about it anymore. Since Japan has been in the position of playing soy sauce, it has not developed at all. Demon forces are even more unreliable. It's completely a piece of sand, and there is almost no organization name at all. Shintoism is even more fierce. A religious faction was created without even the Protoss, and there are also systemic powers that can be performed by various Protoss.
After counting these protoss forces, you can see that the protoss forces on the Japanese side are actually very problematic. The Gao Tianyuan Protoss and the demon forces were quite strong. It's a pity that the Gao Tianyuan Protoss made us miserable, and the demons were not united, so this time the Protoss power seemed quite sluggish. Thanks to a later release of Masamoto Matsumoto, which led to the shift of our guild's Japanese strategy, from occupation to control, we have retained these protoss forces, otherwise we will follow the tactical habits of our guild It must be to clean up the Japanese Protoss.
It is precisely because the Japanese Protoss forces now have their own problems, all of which are like the sick seedlings. Therefore, even if the Buddhist sects of this Japanese version have no main thread, they still can maintain their previous status. However, it is precisely because the Buddha's door is still intact, that the master of the Amakusa Ten Guards sent the Amakusa Ten Guards so urgently to find someone to help.
As a local political group, they also have a higher status than freedom and are absolutely inferior to the protoss institutions. Fortunately, the demands of the Protoss and local political groups are different, so there is basically no conflict between the two. One is for material benefits, and the other is mainly for the power of faith. So there is no conflict between everyone.
However, the absence of conflict does not mean that it will be discouraged. Everyone had done their job before. Now that the main vein of the Buddhist door is annihilated, this branch is eager to absorb the power of faith to strengthen itself. As a result, the monk, the most direct unit for collecting the power of faith, suddenly lost more than thirty, and all concentrated. In a city, do you say that the senior management of this Buddhist temple will not send individuals to see the situation?
At first glance, the situation was nothing, the problem was that the lower-level protoss who had lost more than thirty monks to see what caused them actually disappeared after they arrived.
The relationship between this protoss power and the city owner is basically not much different from the relationship between the emperor and the local officials. Although it is not a direct relationship, it is really a sentence that can determine the life and death of the city owner here. Originally, the loss of more than thirty monks was not over yet, but a commissioner sent to him actually happened again. If this Buddhist gate is left indifferent, it is obviously impossible. Regardless of whether this matter can be found out in the end, and whether the responsibility lies with the city owner, anyway, the city owner is bound to have no good food. It's all lucky to be replaced, and it's not surprising to lose your head.
It happened that the master of the Amakusa Ten-Bei Wei happened to be a master who likes to take the initiative and did not like to sit and wait. He did n’t know what to do. Now he has foreseen his miserable future. How can you say that he can not find a way to live without changing his mind?
As soon as he thought about it, he immediately thought of asking someone to help. This one is also particular about finding someone to help. Protoss forces certainly can't. It ’s been said that the relationship between the local government and the protoss is like the emperor and the local officials. The commissioner here has an accident in the jurisdiction of your local official. You do n’t explain it, but I ran to a foreign official to come and support you. This is What do you mean? It doesn't matter whether the previous thing is big or small, right or wrong. If you can do this kind of thing, then it can never spare you. This is not a matter of right or wrong but of principle, so there is no room for bargaining.
Because of this faction's distinctness among the protoss forces, the city owner knew that he could never find other protoss forces to help him. Besides, other people may not take them seriously. If another protoss is to fight against the inspection of the Buddhist gate, that ’s basically It is tantamount to committing suicide, and even worse, it is not necessary to invite.
Can't find Protoss forces, then the remaining forces have one option left, which is player forces.
Although most player forces can't actually fight against the protoss forces, but they happen to know that there is a force that can fight against the protoss forces, that is, Matsumoto is congratulating them.
Just because I knew that Matsumoto was able to fight against the protoss, at least he could protect them, so the city owner sent Amakusa Ten-Bing to come to Matsumoto Masa to contact and help, but I did not expect to encounter this misunderstanding unexpectedly later, Amakusa Tenbei discovered our relationship with Matsumoto Masa.
When Matsumoto knew that Amakusa Tenbei had found his cheats, he thought about killing him, but Amakusa Tenbei asked him to give him a chance to speak, and Matsumoto Masa agreed. After that, Amakusa Tenbei told the whole content of this event to Masamoto Matsumoto. After hearing this, Matsumoto also thought that this matter might indeed be worth reaching out, so instead of directly killing Amakusa Tenbei, let me To decide what to do.
After explaining all the things, Amakusa Tenbei said, "Okay, President Zi Yue, I've said everything. I only see your secrets, and I haven't returned to the owner. There, so only I know you are secret. If you do n’t want to get involved in this matter, just kill me to guarantee that the news will never leak out. Of course I do n’t want to die, so if you might not kill me for some reason , I will also promise to absolutely rot the news in my stomach, even the Lord of the City will never say it. Please believe that I am not a fool with long muscles. It ’s better to know this kind of news. I tell the City Lord It ’s tantamount to putting him in danger, so even if you let me go, I would never tell the owner. As for the other people, I certainly would n’t say it.

I am quite sure of the guarantee of Amakusa Ten Guards, after all, he is indeed on the right path. Amakusa Tenbei knows that our relationship with Masamoto Matsumoto is equivalent to knowing a big secret. This kind of thing can't be easily talked about. Otherwise, if the information is leaked, we will suffer losses, and he will not be able to run away. Revenge, and before this matter is completely spread, who he tells is tantamount to getting this person on our hunting list, and he will definitely not do it if he has a little brain. He and we are innocent and innocent, there is no need to fight for our lives and pit us. Isn't it obvious that you have a problem with your head?
"Okay. Regarding our secret problem, I won't kill you because of this, but it is impossible for me to leave you alone with such a big thing. So, I will take some precautionary measures against you. But do n’t worry, as long as you do n’t leak the news, this precaution will not have any effect on you. As for the things that help you ... I want to know how your city owner planned? He does n’t think it ’s necessary to get here, we Are you sure to help here? "
When Amakusa Ten-Baiwei heard this, he immediately knelt down. He first made a noise and said, "Thank you for your kindness, and for your willingness to help us."
"Wait, I haven't said I want to help."
"The question you ask us about the price is that you are attentive, at least you already have the intention to make a shot. Of course, our city lord will not let you take the shot to offend the Buddha's group. He means to use some special rewards to Pay your compensation. "
"Special compensation? What special compensation can he give?"
Amakusa Tenbei paused for a moment before saying, "Our Lord of the City has prepared a lot of beautiful women for you, as long as ..."
"Stop!" I almost didn't fall to the ground when I heard Amakusa Ten. "What do you think of me? Beautiful lady? Your city owner really has an idea. Don't tell me you only prepared this. If that's the case, I'll immediately tell you to blast out."
When Amakusa Tenbei heard my words, he quickly shook his hands and said, "No rush, no rush, we have something else besides this."
"Say."
Amakusa Tenbei sighed a little and said, "There is still something in our hands that the Lord of the City does not know what the value is. We estimate it may be very valuable, but we do n’t know the specific value for the time being, so it is impossible to determine whether you are satisfied . "
"What kind of thing is it?"
"It's a round thing. The surface is carved with a lot of unreadable lines. The material seems to be jade, the size of an apple."
I frowned and said, "Are there no other characteristics than this? I just don't know what it is based on the information you said!"
"We also don't know what this is, so we can't tell you clearly, but it must be a good thing to come, because this thing is the thing left by the Buddha Protoss who came to check later."
"That protoss left?"
Amakusa Tenbei nodded and said, "Yes. The first thing after that protoss came was to check in the temple where more than 30 monks were missing, and then he was in the old monk's room in the temple. A dark grid was found out here, and this thing was put there. At that time, he seemed to know the location of the dark grid, and went directly at this thing. And after seeing this thing, he immediately acted It was very reassuring, and the subsequent investigation was not so anxious. But he disappeared the next day, and we found it when we sorted out his relics, so I ’m not sure if this has any value, just Knowing it should be a good thing. "
"It's really a good thing to hear what you say. So let's go. I'll take a look at this matter, but if that thing is of little value, I won't care about your business."
"Thank you, Lord."
"Okay, you step down first, there's still something on our side, and I'll come to you later."
"It's an adult."
Amakusa Ten soldiers were taken by Masamoto Matsumoto to take a rest in the house, but in reality it was temporarily placed under house arrest. He could not be left without security precautions.
After Amakusa Tenbei was taken away, I looked at Masamoto Matsumoto and asked, "Okay, now let's talk about the ghost-handed Nobunaga and the Yagi snake. When did they disappear?"
"We didn't know about it until early this morning, but according to information obtained by our personnel, they actually disappeared late yesterday."
"These two people can't bear to be excused, but there are so many people under the command of Nobunaga. Didn't you find one?"
"Sorry President, our people really don't know how they disappeared. It was fine before, but suddenly everyone disappeared collectively." Masamoto Matsumoto said helplessly.
I thought for a moment and said, "Can you be sure that Nobunaga and Yagi are together?"
Matsumoto Masako nodded a little after hesitating: "I have more than 80% certainty that they are together. This and a lot of evidence can be indirectly proved, but we have no direct evidence."
I thought about it a little bit, and then asked Rose and Sumei around me, "What do you guys think?"
Rose frowned and said, "They are missing together, they must be planning something, and obviously they have ignored the people on Matsumoto's side. It would be reasonable to say that the ghost-handed Nobunaga did this, but the Yagi snake also did the same. , This is a bit counterintuitive. "
Su Mei followed, "I don't think they should come to us this time."
"Why don't you think they came for us?" I asked out loud.
Su Mei replied: "You think. If you want to attack our Frost Rose Alliance, it is basically a total invasion of our country. Such a large-scale operation must not be trivial. How can some people be left unused? "
Rose nodded and said, "That makes sense. If the Yagi snake wants to do something to us, wouldn't it be good to ask Matsumoto to congratulate them?"
"Yeah, most of the people in the whole book are under our control now. The ghost-handed Nobunaga and the Hachichi snake must not be able to bypass our execution plan. They do not inform us that they will not be able to use these players. And if it is an invasion plan, we must have our hands. So it is inferred that no matter what Nobunaga Nobunaga and the Hachi-O Snake are planning, they should have nothing to do with the Frost Rose Alliance.
"But what if they use a small number of people to fight in this way?" Sakura Yu asked. "Once Essinger is attacked, will our price be too high?"
"Actually, I don't worry about them attacking Isinger." Rose said, "Esinger's defense is very strong. Even if they do come, they may not be able to win our city in a short time, and now this matter It has been filed in the heaven court. Once the Yachi serpent appears in Essinger, the reinforcements in the heaven court can be reached within a few minutes. By then, the battle will inevitably become a protracted war, and I am afraid this is not the Yao Qi serpent willing to see The result. Of course, it is not ruled out that the Yaki snake is suspected of being a stupid shareholder by the ghost-handed Nobunaga shareholders, but that may have a very low surname. "
Su Mei interrupted us and said, "I ca n’t see it this way. Let ’s start the three-level defense plan in Isinger first, so that it can at least play a certain security role. In addition ... I suggest to immediately start the space transmission interception on Kirishima System, the transnational transmission array uses the time-hopping connection to avoid, so as to prevent the possible surnames of the Eight-Big Serpent they directly transmitted to Isinger to launch the attack. Then we only need to block the sea area between China and Japan, basically Can serve as an early warning. "
Rose nodded and said, "This method works, but the Japanese side can't relax. I suggest that someone be sent immediately to the Japanese side to investigate the whereabouts of the Yakisu snake and Nobunaga's ghost." He said to me, "Just right, Zi said, aren't you going to help the Amakusa Ten-Bing guards to see what's going on with them? By the way, investigate the information of the Yakisu snake and Nobunaga's ghost. Isn't it just killing two birds with one stone? "
I nodded and said, "No problem, I'll run this myself, but what about South America?"
Rose said: "The tree of life has been planted, so don't worry about the rest of the things. You can rest assured if you have the logistics. Go and deal with the Hachiji serpent and don't have any other moths!"
"No problem, leave this to me."
After a brief discussion, we immediately started to act separately. Rose is going to South America to stare at the construction of the new city. After all, she is the chief logistics officer. I ca n’t manage things over there now, she will take over in full. Of course, Su Mei can't spare any time. She will go to the staff to discuss the formulation of a local defense plan. This plan needs to be modified from the original plan. On the one hand, it will start defense, but on the other hand, it can't let interested people see something. This is not an easy task.
Each of them is busy, and I can't relax anymore. When I was out of Isinger, I went to the Misty Island to supervise them and activated the transmission isolation barrier. This thing is a very high-end remote space interception device that can block the space channel between the two regions and cause the transmission array to fail. Space transmission that does not depend on the transmission array will also be disturbed and unusable.
The Yagi snake comes to China. Unless it flies over by itself, it can only take a boat or use a teleportation array, and the group of ghosts and Nobunaga are also the same. They must use one of three methods. As long as the transmission jamming device is activated, there are only two methods they can choose. Either fly over or take a boat by water.
As I just said, we are going to start the coastline blockade, so if they come by boat, they will definitely be found and they will be sunk halfway, so they cannot reach Isinger by boat, and they will be exposed. Then, the only thing left is the air. Of course, this is actually a big pit.
What is the strongest in our Frost Rose League? Of course it is the Air Force. With so many spears and dragons, do you think it is fun to keep them? We dare not pack tickets for other battles. In the case of air combat, we have not been afraid of Frost Rose Alliance. In the past, when there was only one Tianma group, we were the first in air combat. Now we are a spear formation, a dragon group, and an air combat mobile angel and an air battleship. The most important thing is the air fortress of Isinger Mobile Fortress. Our guild's air combat capability is definitely one of the best. Even if the Yachi serpent flies over, we can knock on him.
Of course, once this space isolation barrier is activated, our own transnational transmission array will also be limited, but we intend to rely on the working principle of a frequency hopping radio for transmission. The simple point is to leave a hole in the barrier for our own use, and this hole is not fixed, but changes every moment. However, because there is a communication center such as Army of God, we can use the communicator to coordinate the frequencies on both sides. In this way, our transmission array and the isolation barrier use the same frequency for frequency hopping transmission. Others ca n’t find our transmission law and it is impossible Transmission, and because we use the instant messaging coordination frequency, there is no law at all, so this method cannot be cracked at all. Of course, if someone cuts into our communication channel, it may be possible to secretly transmit with the frequency hopping, but the problem is that our communication is based on the of war, so if someone cuts into the channel, he will find it immediately, as long as It is good to stop frequency hopping and completely block all space channels. Enemies can't get through.
After finishing things here, I left Kirishima again, and then reached Fulcrum City. Without leaving the gate, I made a large circle directly from the sea, then landed in a no-man's land far away, and then made a circle to reach the temporary headquarters where Matsumoto Masako was located.
Seeing me coming, Matsumoto Masaka immediately led me to the secret meeting room. This is the core area here. Only people who really understand Matsumoto Masaka's identity can reach here. Generally, the players in this area are connected to the outer area here. Can't get in.
I was here with Matsumoto Masako and they had a face-to-face understanding of their situation, and then Matsumoto Masahara took them to Amakusa Ten-Bei's room.
Although I have seen it in the communicator before, I was quite surprised to see this Amakusa Ten Guards on the spot. The appearance of this guy is quite different in Yue himself, thinking that his appearance is not very like Yue himself, or not like Asians. In fact, this Amakusa Ten-Bei guard looks very much like a Western white man, only a little Asian blood can be seen.
Although I was curious about the appearance of this guy, I didn't ask much, after all, I didn't come to check the account. After a few words with this Amakusa Ten-Bing Wei, I started to get to the point. "Where is your city and what is its name?"
"Master. Our city is called Yuanbang. It is a large city. There are also several small mountain villages and a farm managed around it. Because the city is relatively large ~ EbookFREE.me ~, there is a large temple set by the Buddhist gate here, There are many very powerful monks stationed there. It's just that I don't know why anyone will disappear. "
"Missing people are monks?"
Amakusa Tenbei thought for a moment and shook his head: "Not all of them, one of them is a staff member passing by a small guild there."
The staff of this small guild that Amakusa Ten-Baiwei should refer to is the guild, because if it is a player, he will directly say that he is an adventurer. Calling by staff must be.
I thought for a moment and then asked, "What are the characteristics of those missing people that you have investigated?"
Of course, the first reaction of consecutive surname cases is to find common ground in order to identify the characteristics of the killer. Although neither Amakusa Ten Bingwei is a detective, we can think of some basic common sense. The facts were not unexpected, and Amakusa Ten-Body Surely nodded and said, "We have indeed studied this. In fact, the protoss who came to investigate the case also wanted to start from here, but just disappeared without finding the eyebrows. After us In conclusion, these missing persons all have one thing in common, that is ... "
(To be continued) q
