Orc Empire Region System Announcement: Congratulations to Ling YI Society's Silverwing Town for becoming the first town in the Orc Empire to open a trade route. Rewarding Silverwing Town 10,000 Popularity and a Transportation Firm Design.
…
The system announcement rang in the ears of every player in the Orc Empire three times in a row.
"Open a trade route? What's that? "
"We should be able to attract more NPC merchants, right?"
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean Silverwing Town will be able to purchase even more rare items from NPCs?"
"The Ling YI Society sure is amazing. Silverwing Town has just been promoted to an Intermediate Town, yet it has already opened a trade route. The Ling YI Society will definitely rule over the Orc Empire in the future."
"Isn't that obvious? Back then, even the Evil Demon army couldn't do anything to the Ling YI Society. Now that Silverwing Town is developing rapidly, it won't be long before the Ling YI Society overtakes Ancient Rock City."
"If we can overtake them, we'll be in luck. At the very least, we won't have to worry about Dark Players ambushing us in the Orc Empire's outer region."
…
The players grinding in the Orc Empire discussed this matter on the official forums. They all had high hopes for the Ling YI Society's development. At the same time, they also looked forward to Silverwing Town's development.
For some reason, Ancient Rock City had become a gathering spot for the dark forces in the Ore Empire. A large number of Dark Players had gathered there, and it had become a gathering spot for Dark Players.
As Ancient Rock City was close to the Orc Empire's inner region, Dark Players mainly operated at the border between the inner and outer regions.
Due to this, the independent players who came here to grind and complete quests complained.
They often fought these Dark Players in PvP battles.
Although Silverwing Town, the closest town to Ancient Rock City, was also a hub for independent players, it could only accommodate a limited number of players. As a result, very few players gathered there. Silverwing Town was no match for the Dark Players in Ancient Rock City.
However, if Silverwing Town developed and attracted more players, it could suppress the Dark Players in Ancient Rock City to a certain extent. That way, the Dark Players would restrain themselves a little. At the very least, they wouldn't surround and attack Silverwing Town's outer region.
Although the Ore Empire's independent players rejoiced over the news of Silverwing Town's new trade route, the various major powers' expressions darkened when they received the news.
The number of players willing to come to the Orc Empire from the neighboring kingdoms and empires had basically reached saturation. In other words, the number of players available to level up in the Orc Empire was limited. The various major powers wanted to recruit more players from the towns they captured to develop their towns.
If a large number of players fled to Silverwing Town, how were they supposed to develop their town?
"Huntwind, it seems like your Ancient Rock City is going to have a tough time in the future." When Falling Fire, who wielded a crimson staff, heard the system notification, he could not help but turn to the Level 55, Tier 2 Berserker carrying a greataxe.
"We're only allying with the Dark Players because we want to use them to wear down Ling Yi. The Evil God's Temple won't suffer any losses at all." Unconcerned, Wind Hunter continued, "Moreover, no matter how the Ling YI Society develops in Silverwing Town, it's already too late. Don't you think so?"
"Indeed. Ling Yi's Hei Yan is a very frightening person. Unfortunately, a Guild can't be strengthened by a single person. In the end, a Guild war still depends on both sides' financial strength and foundation," Falling Fire said, nodding. When he saw the Crimson Flame Fortress's destroyed magic array, he could not help but smile. "Let the Ling YI Society continue to be arrogant for now. Once we capture the Crimson Flame Fortress, everything will come to an end for Ling Yi."
The Crimson Flame Fortress was one of the most important fortresses in the Orc Empire's inner region. It was also a relatively safe transportation hub. As long as they captured the Crimson Flame Fortress, they would have control over the majority of the players trying to reach the Regional Dungeon, the Orc Capital City. Not even Ancient Rock City could compare to the amount of money and resources they could obtain.
At the same time, as long as they took control of the Crimson Flame Fortress, they would be able to cut off the Ling YI Society's access to the Orc Capital City. All of the Ling YI Society's efforts in the Orc Empire would go to waste.
As time passed, they would grow stronger in the Orc Empire, while Ling Yi would grow weaker. Once they accumulated enough strength, they would be able to capture Silverwing Town and destroy the Ling YI Society, turning the Ling YI Society into history.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, due to the expulsion magic array the Shifeng had constructed, the Orc army, which had been attacking Xiang Shifeng, felt suppressed. Even the Orc General's reaction had slowed considerably, allowing the Shifeng to rely on Heavenly Dragon's Power to protect himself and dodge the attack.
Just as the Shifeng were thinking of a way to retreat …
Suddenly, battle cries came from outside the fortress.
In the next moment, over 1,000 yards away from the fortress, a group of royal soldiers charged out. Although there weren't many of these soldiers, only 1,000 of them, they were all very high-leveled. Every one of them was at least Level 100.
In God's Domain, Level 50 was a major turning point. Level 100 was similarly a major turning point. A Level 100, Tier 2 NPC could easily deal with a Level 95 Great Lord. Meanwhile, the weakest of the kingdom's NPCs charging at the fortress was a Tier 2 NPC, and the leader of this group was a Level 120, Tier 3 Knight Commander named Claude.
Although Claude was only Tier 3, there was still a massive difference between Tier 3 NPCs. For example, Claude was fully geared in Epic Equipment, and the silver spear he wielded was a Fragmented Legendary Weapon. His combat power was at the peak of Tier 3, and he could even contend with Tier 4 Mythic monsters.
With the appearance of this group of kingdom's soldiers, they quickly crushed the Orc army. Riding atop his unicorn, Claude charged at the Orc Generals surrounding the fortress's entrance, brandishing his spear.
Silver light flashed, and space shattered.
Two Level 80 Grand Lord ranked Orc Generals were sent flying. The Lord ranked Orc, which still had a third of its HP remaining, died on the spot.
In the blink of an eye, Claude broke through the Orc army surrounding the fortress's entrance and charged into the fortress.
"Rescue?" The Shifeng was both surprised and overjoyed when they saw Claude charge into the fortress. They had never thought that they would encounter such a situation after completing their quest.
The Level 80 Orc General was powerless against the Level 120 Claude. The Orc General was instantly sent flying. As the battle dragged on, the Orc General's HP gradually decreased.
When the Orc General's HP fell below 50%, it bellowed in frustration. Immediately, the Orc army began to retreat. As for the Orc General, it retreated all the way to the fortress's walls. It then jumped off the wall and fled the scene.
After the Orc army retreated, Claude arrived before the Shifeng.
