Chapter 161 - Aerial Attacking

If these Archers’ placement was arranged just like in the movie ‘Hero’1, they would undoubtedly be able to shoot down even Superman. However, Carouse only had one hundred Archers and their placement was done in a haphazard manner. Evidently, their formation could not hold a candle to the one depicted in that movie.

This was good news to Amethyst Rebirth’s five remaining players. If these Archers were properly set up in the outer layer of Carouse’s defensive formation, July, Lie Lie, and Will-low would never be able to break through their ranks with their speed. At present, as long as Gu Fei and Svelte Dancer were able to draw most of the Archers’ firepower on themselves, the three ladies would have a good chance of succeeding of breaking through the Archers’ defensive line.

That was actually the first step of the ‘Plan D’ that they had in mind, so they would have zero chance of proceeding to the next step of it if they suffered any losses at this stage. Thus, they needed to find a more reliable method to penetrate the Archers’ ranks.

“Look. It’s at that side,” Will-low inclined her head as she said this to her four guildmates.

Carouse’s players stratagem was for them to maintain their formation on a high ground in order to have a three-hundred-sixty-degree view of their surroundings, but the emphasis for this stratagem was not actually on how high the formation could be placed, but it was instead on how ‘clear’ their line of sight was without being obstructed or blocked by the uneven terrains. Even if they managed to find themselves the highest ground possible, it would not be useful if the location was filled with uneven terrains or trees that could block their line of sight, as the enemies could easily use those as cover to sneak up on their high-ground formation. 

It was precisely because this plateau had fulfilled Carouse’s strategic requirements that they had chosen to maintain their three-hundred-sixty degree formation over here. Unfortunately, nothing perfect existed in the world, as Will-low had just pointed out an uneven terrain wracked with depressions and protrusions near where the Carouse’s men had positioned themselves.

It was nothing compared to the cover that players could get within a forest of trees as the view range was still broad and unobstructed, but such a place could provide plenty of cover that would limit the Archers’ prowess ever so slightly.

The five showed a calm and somewhat lackadaisical expression on their faces as they headed over there nonchalantly.

“The remaining enemies are now gathered over by that slope”, “Shall we rush in and wipe them out completely?”, and “We can win if we take them out immediately right now” were the gist of the conversations on Carouse’s guild channel right now. In fact, most of Carouse’s players felt mystified by the stratagem that they had employed against just five players.
