Storm Empire, Imperial Capital, Storm City:
Although the sky had darkened, Storm City was brightly lit. More and more players gathered on the city's streets. The Teleportation Hall, in particular, was crowded. Wave after wave of players teleported to the city. The city was many times livelier than White River City.
At this moment, a group of players appeared in a teleportation array that was half the size of a football field. Although there were only 20 players in this group, they were all very high-leveled, with the weakest among them being Level 42. There were even a few Level 44 players among them.
As these players did not wear Black Cloaks to hide their levels, the players in the Teleportation Hall immediately turned to look at them with reverence.
The players in the hall were curious about the sudden appearance of this group of people.
After all, the number one player on the Storm Empire's Ranking List was only Level 43. Moreover, he had recently reached Level 43. Yet, among these 20 players, there were actually Level 44 experts. Most importantly, none of these players wore a Guild Emblem. This proved that they were not Guild players, but independent players …
If Shifeng were here, they would find these players familiar. They were none other than Owl, one of God's Domain's top adventurer teams. Owl's commander, White Night, was leading the team this time. He was a Level 44 Ranger. Frozen Dream, a Level 44 Elementalist, accompanied him.
"Commander, this place is so lively! I feel like it's just as lively as Flame Dragon City!" Frozen Dream, who wielded an icy-blue staff, was slightly surprised as she scanned the hall.
Flame Dragon City was the imperial capital of the Fire Dragon Empire, one of the Four Great Empires. Its player population far exceeded that of the other empires' imperial capitals.
The Storm Empire was not particularly powerful. It was only on par with the Black Dragon Empire. Moreover, it was located in a remote area. Logically, the city should not be as prosperous as the Black Dragon Empire, yet it was so lively right now.
At a glance, practically all of the players in the hall were Level 38 or above. Very few were below Level 38. There were even Level 40 and Level 41 experts among them.
Aside from the players' high levels, the number of Guilds gathered here was astounding.
Based on the Guild Emblems these players wore, at least 100 Guilds had gathered here. There were even quite a few first-rate Guilds among them.
"That's normal. Have you forgotten why we're here today?" White Night chuckled nonchalantly.
"Could it be an invitation from Nature Hall?" Frozen Dream suddenly realized.
"Not all of them. At the end of the day, very few have received an invitation. The other Guilds have taken the initiative to express their goodwill. After all, the situation in the Storm Empire has changed. As for the independent players here, 80% of them are here to join Nature Hall," White Night said, shaking his head.
They had come here today because they had received an invitation from Nature Hall, a first-rate Guild, to congratulate the Guild on becoming Storm City's ruler.
There weren't many empires in God's Domain. Originally, the Storm Empire's imperial capital had always been under the control of the super-first-rate Guild Nine-star Family. However, nobody had thought that Nature Hall, which had been vying with Twilight Echo, would actually start a war with the Nine-star Family.
The reason was to fight over a small town with a mineral vein.
At that time, everyone thought that Nature Hall had gone mad. How dare they start a war with the Nine-star Family? It was as if they didn't want to stay in the Tempest Empire any longer.
But in the end, the Nine-star Family suffered a crushing defeat, and the town fell into the hands of Nature Hall.
No one had expected this outcome. Although the Nine-star Family was a relatively weak super-first-rate Guild, it was still a super-first-rate Guild. It wasn't an existence that first-rate Guilds could afford to provoke.
After the war, everyone thought that the Nine-star Family would retaliate against Nature Hall. However, to everyone's surprise, the Family withdrew from Storm City, stupefying everyone.
Following the Nine-star Family's withdrawal, Nature Hall grew stronger with each passing day. Even the other first-rate Guilds were shocked by its growth. None of them could stop Nature Hall from taking control of Storm City. Today, Nature Hall would take complete control of Storm City and become the Storm Empire's number one Guild.
Meanwhile, Owl had some business dealings with Nature Hall, so he had been invited to the meeting today.
As soon as White Night and his companions left the Teleportation Hall, a group of Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights in uniform equipment appeared before them. Leading the group was a stern-looking man in his thirties with a cross-shaped scar on his face. The man also wore silver armor and carried a mountain-splitting axe as tall as a grown man. The man radiated an iron-blooded aura. He didn't look like a player at all.
The man's level was also very high, at Level 42.
"Hello, Mister White Night. My name is Deep Thunder. Guild Leader Nature has sent me to receive you. The carriage is ready," Deep Thunder said as he gestured to the advanced carriage parked beside him.
The crowd on the street was stupefied when they saw this scene.
"Who are those people?"
"Amazing! Nature Hall's guards are actually escorting them! Not even first-rate Guilds receive such treatment!"
"Level 44?! Could they be some bigshot from that place? "
…
Everyone watched enviously as White Night's group boarded the advanced carriage.
While Nature Hall held its celebration, several strangers arrived at Zero Wing's Residence in White River City. None of these people were low-leveled, with the lowest-leveled player being Level 41. They also wore Level 40 dark-type equipment, which made the players lining up to register at the entrance of the Residence green with envy.
"Big Brother Quan, the Ling YI Society is amazing! I can't even see the end of the line of elite players lining up at the entrance. I'm afraid that it won't be long before the Ling YI Society's elite members surpasses Twilight Echo's! " A muscular, dark-skinned Level 41 Shield Warrior exclaimed when he saw the scene at the entrance.
"That's right!" the middle-aged man named Spring Echo exclaimed.
Who would have thought that the little girl who had left Twilight Echo and joined the Ling YI Society with her trusted aides would be able to develop a small, unknown Guild into its current state in such a short time?
The family's old fellows, in particular, were stupefied.
Back then, to bring Shiuse Qiangwei and Brilliant Wargod together and improve the family's strength, they had coerced Shiuse Qiangwei into marrying them. Now, however, Shiuse Qiangwei was doing even better than those old fellows.
If not for Shiuse Qiangwei being one of the Ling YI Society's Vice Guild Leaders, they wouldn't have been able to meet the elusive Ling Yi's Guild Leader, Hei Yan.
Following which, Spring Echo led the four people behind him into Ling Yi's Residence.
After entering Ling Yi's Residence, Spring Echo was stupefied by the scenery inside Ling Yi's Residence.
The average level of the players in the first-floor hall was Level 36 or above. It was obvious that the Level 36 and Level 37 players weren't Ling Yi's elite members. However, this was precisely why Spring Echo was so surprised.
Even the weakest piece of equipment these players wore was Mysterious-Iron rank, while the majority of them wore Level 35 Secret-Silver Equipment.
As for the Level 40 elite players, they actually wore Level 40 Fine-Gold Equipment. This was something that Twilight Echo could never have imagined.
While Spring Echo and the others waited quietly in the reception room, Shiuse Qiangwei entered the Residence.
The instant Shiuse Qiangwei entered the room, Spring Echo and the others were stunned, their eyes nearly falling out of their sockets.
