"They're all Tier 2 players?!" Illusory Words could not help but turn to look at Ling Yi's group. Whispering, she asked, "That's … 600 people. Are you sure you're not seeing things?"
Although Illusory Words could tell that Ling Yi's group wasn't ordinary and that they were all powerful experts, having 600 Tier 2 players at once was a little frightening.
Although more and more superpowers had completed their Promotion Quests, some of the weaker superpowers were still far from reaching 500 Tier 2 players, not to mention 600 Tier 2 players.
Promotion to Tier 2 was not an easy task. Techniques and equipment were indispensable prerequisites.
Of course, some players would choose to challenge their Promotion Quests at a lower difficulty. Take many independent players for example. Tier 2 players had a massive advantage over Tier 1 players. Not only would they gain a significant boost to their Basic Attributes, but their physique would also improve significantly. With this boost, they would have a much easier time grinding and questing.
However, choosing to challenge their Promotion Quests at a lower difficulty also came with severe consequences. Their Tier 3 Promotion Quests would become much more difficult in the future.
Meanwhile, a majority of independent players would choose to challenge their Tier 2 Promotion Quests in order to obtain better resources. However, it was a different story for large Guilds' experts. With their Guilds supporting them, they wouldn't lack resources at all. To ensure that their Tier 3 Promotion Quests would be easier in the future, these experts would naturally give up on challenging their Tier 2 Promotion Quests. Instead, they would spend a lot of time improving their levels, equipment, and techniques, choosing the most difficult Promotion Quests to complete their Promotion Quests.
The Ling YI Society owned Ling Yi City and Silverwing Town in the Ore Empire. It had an abundance of resources. Logically, the Guild shouldn't have done something as foolish as killing the goose that lays the golden egg for the Guild's experts.
Yet, how many members did the Ling YI Society have? How many experts did it have?
Compared to the various superpowers, the Ling YI Society was like a firefly compared to the moon. They were on completely different levels.
Yet, the Ling YI Society had 600 Tier 2 players …
"Vice Guild Leader, I also want to doubt my judgment, but there's no way to fake a Tier 2 Class Emblem. Every one of these players is wearing a Tier 2 Class Emblem …" Lightcaster said, smiling bitterly.
He had already asked Ling Yi and the others to confirm his identity many times, but the Tier 2 Class Insignia under the Black Cloak was extremely eye-catching. There was no way he would mistake it for someone else. Moreover, there was one thing he hadn't told Illusory Words about.
Among these players, four of them were Level 60, while the rest were Level 59. Among them, the leader of the group was a Shifeng, whose level could not be determined at all.
On the surface, the highest-leveled player in the Dark Night Empire was only Level 58. Of course, according to Crimson Emperor's investigation, the highest-leveled player in the Dark Night Empire was only Level 58. Of course, based on Crimson Emperor's investigation, the highest-leveled player in the Dark Night Empire was only Level 58. After all, leveling up at this level required a massive amount of EXP. Even after reaching Tier 2, players still needed a lot of time to level up.
Yet, the Ling YI Society already had over 50 Tier 2 players that had reached Level 59. Four of them had even reached Level 60. This meant that the Ling YI Society had monopolized the top 50 places on the Dark Night Empire's Ranking List.
To ordinary players, a one-level difference might not mean much, but after reaching Level 50, every increase in Tier 2 players' Basic Attributes would be far greater than the Free Attribute Points they received. A two-level difference would mean an additional 20 to 30 points in a player's main Attribute. Not to mention, there would also be the Free Attribute Points they would receive as a reward.
It was easy to imagine how massive the difference would be if a player were five or six levels higher than a player's. This was the frightening aspect of a level difference. Because of this, many independent players had no choice but to complete their Tier 2 Promotion Quests as soon as possible in order to level up as quickly as possible.
"The Ling YI Society has already developed to this extent?" When Illusory Words recalled how Ling Yi had dared to wage an all-out war against Blackwater in the Ore Empire, she could not help but come to a realization.
With so many Tier 2 players, it was no wonder why Ling Yi dared to go toe-to-toe with Blackwater in the Ore Empire.
Meanwhile, Unyielding Soul's Unyielding Heart was similarly surprised. After all, Crimson Emperor wasn't the only player with an Advanced Identification Skill. However, in terms of shock, Unyielding Heart was even more shocked than Illusory Words.
After all, Unyielding Heart had raided the Eclipse Throne with Ling Yi's group, so he knew exactly how many Tier 2 players the Ling YI Society had. Moreover, even if the Society had tried to hide the number of Tier 2 players it had, it shouldn't have been that many.
Yet, after such a short time, the Ling YI Society already had 600 Tier 2 players. This growth speed was simply mind-boggling …
"Since everyone's here, let's set out," Shifu said as he approached Unyielding Heart and Unyielding Heart. "If we stay here for too long, I'm afraid that we'll cause more commotion."
Unyielding Heart and Illusory Words exchanged a glance before nodding in agreement.
Even now, many players were already discussing the matter. If they stayed any longer, the various major powers' members would most likely notice. Raiding a Field Boss was a dangerous endeavor. If other powers found out about this, they'd take advantage of this opportunity to ambush them.
Following which, Unyielding Heart and Illusory Words merged their 200-man team with the Shifeng's. They then followed Shifeng to the Four Towers of Elements' teleportation array.
After Shifeng selected the teleportation array's location, the team members stepped into it and disappeared from everyone's sight. Although some curious players tried to follow the team, after Shifeng's group left Ling Yi City, the NPC guards guarding the city erased the teleportation array's coordinates under Shifeng's instructions.
Meanwhile, in front of a large waterfall surrounded by lush greenery, a group of figures appeared beside the waterfall. The cold air radiating from the lake made these players shudder involuntarily. These players were none other than Shi Feng's group, who had just teleported to this place.
"Isn't this the Frost Jade Waterfall?" Illusory Words, who had reviewed the Witch's Hill's map, asked curiously as she looked at Shifeng beside her. "Aren't we going to the Land of a Thousand Trees to deal with the Emerald Treant?"
The Frost Jade Waterfall and the Land of a Thousand Trees were polar opposites. Although the Frost Jade Waterfall was surrounded by lush greenery, there weren't many resources or monsters in the area. No player would choose to level up here, much less hunt a Field Boss.
Unyielding Heart nodded in agreement. Based on his guess, the Emerald Treant was the only Mythic Boss in the entire Witch's Hill. Moreover, the forest the Emerald Treant resided in was rich in herbs. If they killed the Emerald Treant, the forest would be peaceful for a while, allowing them to harvest rare herbs. It should be the best choice.
"No, I'm going to deal with another Boss," Shifeng said, shaking his head. He then continued, "The Boss is inside the lake. If anyone has less than 20 Ice Resistance, come to me for an Ice Resistance Potion."
The lake beneath the Frost Jade Waterfall was composed of Frost Jade Stones, which radiated intense cold air. Without Ice Resistance, ordinary players would be suicidal if they entered the lake. They'd freeze to death in less than 30 seconds. Only players with 20 or more Ice Resistance could survive in the lake.
However, 20 points of Ice Resistance was nothing to these players. They were all experts, after all. Their equipment and accessories would, more or less, give them some additional Magic Resistance. Even if they didn't have Magic Resistance, they would still learn some Passive Magic Resistance Skills. Furthermore, Guilds often gave their experts temporary equipment with additional Fire and Ice Resistance. Very few players had less than 20 points in Ice Resistance.
After Shifeng distributed the Ice Resistance Potions to the 100-plus players in the team, he didn't bother to explain the situation. Instead, he led the team into the lake.
At the bottom of the Frost Jade Waterfall was a cave that could fit three to five people at a time. This cave was the entrance to the shrine below.
After swimming around the cave for three minutes, the team discovered an exit.
Upon exiting the cave, they found themselves in a deep, dark cave. Ancient murals covered the cave walls, and the murals told of the Witch's Hill's ancient history. The team was surprised. They had never thought that such a place existed beneath the Frost Jade Waterfall.
However, to players who didn't understand divine runes, they couldn't understand the murals.
However, players who were proficient in divine runes quickly realized that the murals were related to the Otherworld Gate and how to open it.
After walking through the long and narrow passage, the group arrived before a dilapidated shrine. Inside the cave, which was as wide as a small town, was as bright as day even though it was underground. Looking up, one would discover that the ceiling of the cave was covered in glowing crystals. It was because of these crystals that the entire cave was brightly lit.
While everyone was admiring the crystal on top of the cavern, their expressions turned extremely ugly.
A hundred-meter-long, translucent crystal serpent coiled around one of the crystal walls. At this moment, the serpent's eyes were tightly shut. If not for its body twisting and turning, the team would've mistaken the serpent for one of the glowing crystals.
The serpent's body was over a hundred meters long, and its head was the size of a three-story building. Its eyes were even larger than the eyes of players. Just looking at the serpent made everyone's hearts tremble in fear.
When they took a closer look at the serpent's Attributes, their knees nearly buckled.
[Void Serpent (Wakanet)] (Realm Lord, Void Creature, Mythic) Level 60 HP 560,000,000/560,000,000
"How is this possible?! A World Boss?! "Illusory Words and Unyielding Heart gasped when they saw the Void Serpent hovering above them.
As they looked at the Void Serpent's HP bar, the two of them felt an unprecedented pressure. They even felt a hint of fear.
In God's Domain, World Bosses didn't have special labels, but there was a way to identify them.
That was the number of HP a World Boss had!
Normally, Field Grand Lord ranked Bosses had three to five HP bars, while Mythic Field Bosses had five to seven HP bars. Based on the various large Guilds' understanding of World Bosses, however, World Bosses should have at least eight HP bars. This number wouldn't increase a Boss's total HP, but every time a World Boss's HP bar emptied, the Boss would change its combat mode, increasing the raid's difficulty.
