Outside of Stone Forest Town, Abandoned Wave commanded Blackwater's army to encircle Ling Yi.
There was a massive difference in the number of players on both sides. Even the Magic Towers could not make up for the disparity. Not to mention, the Magic Towers' firepower was focused on the monsters outside the town.
If not for the Magic Towers increasing players' Basic Attributes, allowing Ling Yi's members to be stronger than Blackwater's members, Ling Yi would've long since been annihilated.
"Guild Leader, our forces have already occupied the town's outer perimeter. The Ling YI Society's members are also defending some of the town's important strongholds. As long as we have a little more time, we'll have no problems wiping them all out," Qin Muyun reported softly.
"Good. Send some people to receive Pantheon's party. Everyone else, trap Ling Yi's members! In two hours, Stone Forest Town, including the three Magic Towers, will be ours!" Abandoned Wave could not help but reveal an excited smile.
Blackwater had suffered massive losses in this operation. Of the elite players it had dispatched, less than 80,000 remained. More than half had died to the Magic Towers. As for the monster army, less than 100,000 remained …
Blackwater had even made many promises to Pantheon and the bandaged man.
However, as long as Blackwater obtained Stone Forest Town and the Magic Towers, none of this would matter.
If Blackwater occupied Stone Forest Town, with the Magic Tower's ability to attract players, as well as Blackwater's powerful background and resources, it wouldn't be long before it recruited a large group of elite and expert players. In addition, Blackwater would have another stable source of Coins and Magic Crystals.
Meanwhile, the Ling YI Society would withdraw from the Starmoon Kingdom's stage, and Blackwater would ascend to the throne of the Starmoon Kingdom.
"Brother Peerless, how are things on your side?" Abandoned Wave asked Peerless, who stood beside him.
"We're almost done. Although Hei Yan guessed that we would try to steal the Town Token, we've already sealed it. I'm afraid that he'll only be able to come out after the battle is over," Peerless said, chuckling.
When Nine Kills had suggested using the Magic Barrier Stones, Shi Feng had strongly objected to the idea. He felt that the Magic Barrier Stones were overkill. If Shi Feng really wanted to use them, they should be used against a Tier 3 NPC or a Grand Lord, not a Tier 1 player.
However, now that the president of Ling Yi had been sealed, it was a blow to the Ling YI Society.
Just as Peerless thought that everything was over, he received a message from one of Dark Blade's members.
"Hei Yan has escaped from the seal. Requesting help!"
Peerless's expression turned grim when he read the message.
Although it was only a short sentence, the meaning behind it could only be understood by those who understood the Magic Boundary Stone.
"He escaped?! How is this possible?!" Peerless's first thought was disbelief.
Without Tier 4 strength, it was impossible to escape from the Magic Barrier Stone. How could a Tier 1 player possess Tier 4 strength?
Following which, Peerless contacted Shi Feng, intending to get to the bottom of this matter.
However, the system notified him that Shi Feng was temporarily unavailable. This made Peerless feel that something was amiss.
Normally, there were only three situations in which a player could not be contacted. The first was when the player was offline. The second was when the player had died. The third was when the player had entered a special location. Obviously, the first and third situations were impossible. The only possibility was the second.
If it was the second situation, it meant that the Dark Blade's members were in a terrible situation.
"Just one person? Is that even possible? "Peerless's heart was filled with questions.
The Dark Blade was an assassination expert that Pantheon had specially nurtured. From their Skills, equipment, and Stat Allocation, Pantheon had carefully researched every aspect of the game. Even if one's equipment was of the same standard and one's combat standards were slightly higher, in the end, they would only lose their lives. To be safe, Pantheon had mobilized a 100-man team. Moreover, Nine Kills had led the team.
Only Super Guilds and super-first-rate Guilds would enjoy such treatment. Other Guilds did not qualify for such treatment. After all, even Super Guilds had their own pride.
If not for the importance of this matter and the fact that some of the Ling YI Society's experts were not to be underestimated, Pantheon would not have mobilized.
One hundred assassination experts working together!
Even if the Guild's apex experts worked together, they would not be able to escape.
"Red Rain, bring some people to Ling Yi's Guild Residence immediately. Something might have happened to the Dark Blade," Peerless hurriedly contacted Red Rain, the vice commander of the Red Jade Legion.
Red Rain was the person the Guild had sent to assist him.
In terms of combat standards, she was even stronger than Nine Kills. Moreover, she was an extraordinarily talented genius. In just three years after joining Pantheon, she had grown from a newcomer to the vice commander of one of Pantheon's trump card legions. The current commander of the Red Jade Legion even thought highly of her and wanted her to take over his position.
In terms of the Guild's future, she was much brighter than an old man like him. Hence, Peerless had to be polite.
"Something happened to the Dark Blade? That can't be, right?" In the video, a delicate beauty with bright red hair revealed a surprised expression. "Isn't Nine Kills, that old bastard, commanding them?"
"I can't contact them right now, but the Town Token is of utmost importance. We need to obtain it!" In reality, Peerless did not believe that something had happened to Nine Kills. However, the facts were right before his eyes. He had no choice but to send someone to investigate.
"Got it." Nodding, Red Rain disconnected the call. She then commanded, "Monkey, help me deal with this Tier 2 NP. I need to leave for a moment."
"Rest assured, Big Sis Red," a thin Elementalist hurriedly said, nodding.
Following which, Red Rain led a 100-man team to Ling Yi's Residence.
"Big Sis Aqua, that Red Rain is leading people to the Guild Residence." Jian Ying, who was brandishing her Sacred Weapon against four melee players from the Red Jade Legion, hurriedly contacted Shiuse Qiangwei when she noticed Red Rain, who had suddenly circled around her.
The Red Jade Legion's members were no match for ordinary Guilds' experts. Even with his Basic Attributes increased, he was helpless against three to five Red Jade Legion members working together. Their teamwork was so good that it was as if they were one person.
If even he was in such a predicament, there was no need to mention the others.
Meanwhile, the Red Jade Legion's Red Rain was inhumanly strong. She had actually killed two Level 65, Tier 2 NPCs by herself. Even when two Level 65, Tier 2 NPCs worked together, Red Rain was still able to advance and retreat as she pleased. If the Dark Gods Legion's members charged at her, they would only be slaughtered …
When Shiuse Qiangwei received news of Red Rain's disappearance, he was powerless to do anything about it. Right now, he was already struggling to defend his Guild Residence. He did not have the strength to care about Red Rain's whereabouts.
…
Ling Yi Society's Residence:
"Nobody's here?" Red Rain curiously scanned the Residence. She did not see a single member of the Ling Yi Society.
However, as Red Rain ventured deeper into Ling Yi's Residence, she saw a shocking scene in the underground hall.
Corpses littered the floor, forming a small hill. Weapons and equipment littered the ground. Every one of these players was a member of Blackwater.
Boom!
Suddenly, an explosion came from a short distance away from the small hill. In the next moment, several players crashed into the small hill like cannonballs and crashed into a wall.
"Is there a Grand Lord inside?" Red Rain was curious. "As expected of Starmoon Kingdom's number one Guild. Ling Yi actually has such a powerful foundation."
Even the weakest of the dead players was Level 38, with some Level 40 experts among them. With just a glance, Red Rain estimated that 30 experts had died, not to mention the elite players.
Even if so many players had gone up against a single Great Lord, they shouldn't have suffered such a miserable defeat. Hence, Red Rain concluded that there should be a Grand Lord inside.
"Big Sis Red Rain, are we going in?" a Level 40 Shield Warrior asked, gulping nervously as he watched the horrific scene.
"Of course. Why wouldn't we? It's just a Grand Lord. It's not like we haven't killed one before," Red Rain said, glancing at the Shield Warrior. She then led her team into the Residence. (To be continued.)
