"Damn it!"
Nine Dragons Emperor's gaze was indescribably cold as he watched Feng Qianyu's group leave.
He had gone to great lengths to secretly arrange for this situation to drive Feng Qianyu away from Thunder Island and use this opportunity to expand his advantage in the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion.
Currently, Shi Feng stood alone in the middle of the canyon's small path, maintaining Chilling Field. Even if they attacked Shi Feng, with Shi Feng's speed and techniques, if he focused on dodging, they wouldn't be able to stop him. Even if they used large-scale destruction Spells, the outcome would still be the same.
The instant the Shifeng cast a Spell, the Shifeng would pull away. By the time the Spell landed, the Shifeng would be long out of range.
He had already used his strongest trump card, Twelve Firmament Break. He wouldn't be able to use it again within the next ten hours.
After a short moment, the Shifeng glanced at the map and saw that Feng Qianyu's group was already far away. Following which, the Shifeng turned and fled, no longer bothering with Nine Dragons Emperor's group.
"Pavilion Master, should we give chase?" Martial Dragon asked as he watched the Shifeng leave.
Although Feng Qianyu's group had left, Shadowtooth had marked the Ling YI Society's members. They could still catch up to them easily.
"No need to chase them. They got lucky this time. You and Shadowtooth, take some men and occupy that ancient tower. Once Miracle's members arrive, we'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with them," Nine Dragons Emperor commanded, smiling faintly as he shifted his gaze to the nearby ancient tower.
Their main goal on Thunder Island was to capture a monster encampment.
Although many superpowers had entered Thunder Island, there were only a limited number of monster encampments and ancient towers. If they kept chasing after Feng Qianyu, they'd be putting the cart before the horse.
Moreover, not only had Feng Qianyu's group wasted their precious opportunity to occupy an ancient tower, but they had also severely injured Feng Qianyu's team. After this, Feng Qianyu would have a much harder time establishing a foothold on Thunder Island.
Although this plan was different from what he had expected, he had achieved his initial goal.
"Yes!" Martial Dragon glanced at the disappearing Shifeng and retracted his cold killing intent. He turned around and led a 20-man team towards the ancient tower on the distant hillside.
After this battle, the various major powers that had been secretly observing Feng Qianyu's team gained a new understanding of them, especially Ling YI Society's Ye Feng.
He could hold back more than two hundred experts by himself.
Even among the various superpowers' Domain Realm experts, very few of them could achieve such a feat.
"It's really a pity for Ye Feng. If he hadn't been restricted by a small Guild, he could've joined a superpower. His future would've been boundless."
"Immediately send someone to investigate the background of this Ye Feng."
"Nine Dragons Emperor sure is ruthless. Although he didn't annihilate Feng Qianyu's team completely, over 70% of the ancient towers on Thunder Island have already been occupied. Feng Qianyu's team will have to wait until the next competition."
The various major powers that had been spectating the battle refocused their attention on capturing the ancient towers and monster encampments. Some people sympathized with Feng Qianyu's situation, while others took pleasure in his misfortune.
The first few minutes on Thunder Island were the most important.
Although it was easy to occupy Thunder Island's ancient towers, once players occupied them, they would have a much harder time reclaiming them. Without several times the combat power of the various major powers, it would be impossible to capture an ancient tower.
These few minutes basically determined the situation of the various major powers on Thunder Island. Moreover, among the various major powers, Feng Qianyu's combat power ranked the weakest. After all, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's forces were split into two. Unlike the other major powers, which operated as one, the various major powers operated as one.
After Feng Qianyu and the others escaped, aside from waiting for their team members to revive, they searched for uncaptured ancient towers.
Finally, after a dozen or so minutes of searching, one of the scouting Assassins discovered an ancient tower on a bay near Thunder Island.
Immediately, Feng Qianyu led his team to capture the ancient tower.
In the end, after spending another ten minutes or so to kill the dozen or so Level 55 Lord ranked Savage Orcs inside the ancient tower, they finally captured one of the towers.
"Big Sis Rain, I've already sent someone to investigate the situation outside of Thunder Island. Currently, all 39 ancient towers have been occupied. I'm afraid it'll be impossible for us to capture a second tower," Blue Phoenix reported helplessly as she walked over.
"What about Nine Dragons Emperor's side?" Feng Qianyu frowned.
She hadn't expected the various major powers to take action so quickly. They didn't even have a chance to capture a second tower.
The monster encampments on Thunder Island were no laughing matter. Without any external help or a Berserk Skill, defeating a Grand Lord of the same level would be extremely difficult, not to mention Thunder Island's Grand Lords.
With the reduced Defense and Magic Resistance from a single ancient tower, even if all of them worked together, they wouldn't be able to capture a single tower. They'd need at least two.
"With the Miracle Society's help, Nine Dragons Emperor has already captured three ancient towers and is preparing to raid a monster encampment," Blue Phoenix said as she sent a message to Feng Qianyu. Blue Phoenix then sent Phoenix Rain an information sheet. "This is the combat strength of the three ancient towers. There are a total of 102 players defending the three towers. The tower closest to us has 42 players defending it."
"Nine Dragons Emperor really isn't giving us a chance." Feng Qianyu smiled bitterly as she read the message.
Originally, she had planned to wait for the team to recover before thinking of a way to capture one of Nine Dragons Emperor's ancient towers. Now, however, that seemed impossible.
It would take them nearly 15 minutes to reach the closest ancient tower. A total of 42 players defended it, including Long Xue, the Guild Leader of the Black Dragon Empire's Branch Guild. With the advantage of occupying an ancient tower, they wouldn't be able to capture it unless they attacked with everything they had.
If they chose a tower further away, they'd need roughly 23 minutes to reach it. They'd also have to circle around Long Xue's tower. Nine Dragons Emperor would definitely discover them during this time, and he'd send reinforcements to reinforce them.
No matter what they did, they wouldn't be able to capture one of Nine Dragons Emperor's ancient towers. As for capturing one of the other powers' ancient towers, that would be a pipe dream. Since the other powers knew about their predicament, they'd deliberately dispatched more players to guard the closest ancient tower than Nine Dragons Emperor did …
It was no exaggeration to say that they had no hope of capturing Thunder Island's monster encampment.
"We still have a chance," Shifeng suddenly said as he looked at the information he'd collected.
"Do we still have a chance?" Feng Qianyu could not help but review the information he'd collected. However, he couldn't find any information that suggested they could capture a second ancient tower.
"Isn't there another ancient tower?" Shi Feng pointed to the ancient tower that Nine Dragons Emperor occupied, which was the farthest from their current location.
"Is there another one?" Feng Qianyu, who had been somewhat excited, was speechless when he saw the ancient tower Shifeng had pointed at. "Although that tower only has 25 players, it's nearly 30 minutes away. By the time we get there, Nine Dragons Emperor's reinforcements will have arrived. It'll be impossible to capture that ancient tower."
"No! We're not trying to capture just one ancient tower. We're trying to capture two of Nine Dragons Emperor's ancient towers simultaneously, "Shifeng said, smiling as he shook his head.
"Capture two ancient towers?" Feng Qianyu could not help his confusion as he looked at Shifeng. For a moment, he thought that Shifeng had lost his mind after hearing Nine Dragons Emperor's words.
"Big Brother Ye Feng, you've seen the benefits of capturing an ancient tower. Not only will our Basic Attributes increase significantly, but we'll also receive damage reduction. With our current combat power, we'd be fortunate to capture one tower. Capturing two at once is impossible," Blue Phoenix explained as she gestured at the magic barrier around the ancient towers.
"How will we know if we don't try?" Shifeng said, chuckling.
On Thunder Island, having more people wasn't a guarantee of an advantage.
Most likely, no one in God's Domain understood Thunder Island better than he did. Not to mention, he had the tools to capture ancient towers.
