Ancient Rock City was surrounded by 20-meter-tall walls. In addition, the walls were engraved with magic runes. Even the most powerful player would not be able to scale the walls. Meanwhile, aside from the walls' protection, Ancient Rock City was protected by a defensive magic array. Even if players tried to scale the walls, they would be stopped by the magic array.
Normally, players could only enter or leave a city through the city's entrance.
If players wanted to do anything to a city, they had to break through these two points. Furthermore, there were NPCs guarding the city.
Due to the Orc Empire's unique environment, players consumed far more Stamina and Concentration here than in other maps. If players wanted to fully recover their Stamina and Concentration, they had to enter a city protected by a magic array.
Currently, players who wished to enter Ancient Rock City were waiting outside the city's entrance. After passing through the city's NPC guards, they were allowed to enter the city.
"This inspection is so troublesome. The Sky Burial Society isn't even willing to hide our identities with Black Cloaks. They're forcing us to reveal our identities."
"They're probably worried about enemy players sneaking in. After all, many superpowers have set their sights on Ancient Rock City. If other powers try to take action inside the city, the Sky Burial Society will suffer significant losses."
"They're overthinking things. It's easier said than done for players to cause trouble in Ancient Rock City. There are plenty of NPC soldiers and players patrolling the city. If they make even the slightest move, they'll most likely die before they can even cause any damage to the city."
"Indeed. Heaven's Burial is being too careful. With such powerful defenses, even Super Guilds can only look on in awe. It's even more impossible for other powers to destroy the city."
…
The players lining up to enter Ancient Rock City discussed the situation. They all felt that the Sky Burial Society's actions were overly sensitive. After all, Ancient Rock City wasn't entirely a player city. It was normally heavily guarded by NPCs. Even if players wanted to take action, they wouldn't be able to do so now. They'd have to wait a long time.
"Huh? Look! There's someone over there!"
"Crap! Who's that? He can actually fly! "
"What's he trying to do?"
"Is he trying to siege the city?"
"Attack the city? What a joke! Ancient Rock City's defensive magic array is not to be trifled with. It's not something current players can hope to contend with. Most likely, they're trying to investigate the situation inside the city. "
"Who is this person? How bold of him! Isn't he afraid that the Sky Burial Society will kill him? "
When the players waiting in line saw a player suddenly appear above Ancient Rock City, they could not help but grow curious.
At this moment, the players outside the city weren't the only ones to notice the hovering Shifeng. Even the players inside the city noticed the Shifeng, causing a commotion.
At the Sky Burial Society's base.
"Guild Leader, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky outside the city. It seems to be a player." A Level 49 Ranger suddenly walked into the Guild Leader's office and asked, "Should we send a patrol squad to eliminate them?"
As long as the players didn't do anything bad in the city, they wouldn't care.
However, someone actually dared to look down on Ancient Rock City from above. This was a provocation. If they didn't teach this person a lesson, the Guild's dignity would be in jeopardy.
"Someone appeared outside Ancient Rock City and looked down on the city?" Singular Burial was slightly surprised. "Do you know who that person is?"
Ever since Heaven's Burial had occupied Ancient Rock City, this was the first time they had encountered such an arrogant player. The player simply did not know how to spell the word "death."
"We've already investigated, but that player is wearing a Black Cloak. We don't know who he is," the Ranger said, shaking his head.
"Interesting. He dares to behave so atrociously in our Sky Burial Society's territory. He must be tired of living. Notify the others immediately. Although I don't know what he's trying to do, I want him to never return. I want everyone to know the power of our Sky Burial Society," Singular Burial sneered as he watched the cloaked Shifeng appear on the screen.
"Understood!" The Ranger immediately commanded the NPCs and patrol squads to take action.
Normally, NPCs would attack as soon as they encountered an enemy inside a city. However, when faced with an unknown player, NPCs would only stop the player from entering the city. They wouldn't eliminate the player directly.
However, if Singular Burial Society gave the command, the NPCs would still take the initiative to attack.
Level 100 NPCs were child's play against current players, not to mention the Tier 3 commander guarding the city.
Shortly after Singular Burial issued the command, the NPCs stationed on the city walls received the news. Immediately, they glared at the hovering Shifeng.
The Tier 3 commander, in particular, immediately fired a Tier 3 Spell at the Shifeng. Meanwhile, the Tier 1 guards beside him drew their bows and released one arrow after another at the Shifeng.
"It seems the Sky Burial Society is really angry. They actually ordered the NPCs to take action. That person is in for a treat."
"I know, right? I really don't know what that person is thinking. Does he think Ancient Rock City's NPC soldiers are just decorations?"
While everyone watched as the hundreds of arrows and Tier 3 Spells bombarded the hovering Shifeng, the Shifeng had long since prepared for such a situation. He had long since retrieved a Tier 3 Defensive Magic Scroll from his bag and unfurled it.
Suddenly, a dark-blue aura formed around Shi Feng, enveloping him completely. The dark-blue aura shattered all of the incoming arrows, and the Tier 3 Spells the Tier 3 Commander had cast were also stopped by the dark-blue aura. None of the Spells could harm Shi Feng in the slightest.
"What?! He's not dead?! "Everyone was shocked when they saw the Shifeng hovering in the air, completely unharmed.
The Tier 3 Spells cast by Level 100, Tier 3 NPCs were even capable of giving players of the same level a headache. Not to mention, the hundreds of arrows and Tier 3 NPCs had also fired at Shi Feng.
However, despite the barrage of Spells and arrows, the Shifeng hovering in the air remained unharmed.
When the NPCs' first wave of attacks ended, the Shifeng did not attempt to flee. Instead, he retrieved an item from his bag.
The instant the item appeared, the surrounding Mana surged toward the Shifeng.
Following which, the Shifeng began to chant an incantation. Not only did the frightening Mana begin to liquefy, but a pitch-black magic array with a 2,000-yard radius then formed above Ancient Rock City. The phantom of a Demon King radiated a frightening aura, and every player in Ancient Rock City could clearly feel it.
"What powerful Mana!"
"What is he trying to do?"
"He's not trying to attack the city, is he?"
"He's insane! This is Ancient Rock City! With the city's defensive magic array, what can a single player do to the city?"
Ancient Rock City's players did not panic in the slightest when they saw the pitch-black magic array in the air. On the contrary, they were confused by the Shifeng's actions.
If this Spell had been used inside the city, it would've been incredibly destructive. However, if it was used outside of the city, it wouldn't have been able to damage the city in the slightest. It would only be a waste of Mana.
However, while everyone was quietly discussing the situation, the pitch-black magic array in the air finished forming. At the same time, the phantom of the Demon King released a furious roar. Immediately, massive, flaming meteors began to rain down from the sky.
Tier 5 Spell, Hell Meteor!
The instant these mountainous meteors collided with Ancient Rock City's defensive magic array, deafening clangs echoed throughout the city. As the meteors collided with Ancient Rock City's defensive magic array again and again, cracks began to appear on the city's defensive magic array. As if the defensive magic array couldn't hold on any longer, cracks began to appear on the city's defensive magic array. In the end, the magic array shattered completely.
