"NPCs?"
"How could there be so many NPCs here?"
The Zero Wing members who had been resisting the monster army all along were astonished as NPCs suddenly appeared one after another.
However, compared to the surprise of Zero Wing's members, the players and major powers watching through the livestream were even more shocked.
"So many NPCs—there have to be more than three hundred of them!"
"No way! There are even Tier 3 classes among these NPCs!"
"Tier 3 classes? How is that possible? Even in NPC cities, Tier 3 NPCs are considered local overlords. Yet ten Tier 3 NPCs have come to defend the town. How did Zero Wing Guild manage this?"
Seeing the ten Level 70 Tier 3 NPCs, everyone on the forums was dumbstruck. Meanwhile, the upper echelons of the various major powers were utterly bewildered and wary.
Ordinary players might not understand how powerful Tier 3 NPCs were, but the large guilds knew perfectly well.
Although an NPC Tier 3 class was only one tier above a Tier 2 class, that single tier was an insurmountable gulf. The difference lay not only in basic attributes, but even more so in combat standards. Even with identical basic attributes, one Tier 3 NPC could crush a whole group of Tier 2 NPCs. This was precisely why even smaller NPC cities were guarded by Tier 3 NPCs.
Yet Stone Forest Town currently had ten Tier 3 NPCs guarding it...
Moreover, NPCs were not monsters. They could coordinate with one another and thereby display astonishing combat power, even if their teamwork was not as refined as that of players.
If ten Tier 3 NPCs joined forces, even High Grand Lord Grade monsters of the same level would be utterly crushed, let alone Legendary monsters of the same level.
