Storm Empire, Nether Mine:
The Storm Empire was located in a highland region, and various mountain ranges dotted the empire. The empire was famous for its ore production, and the Nether Mine was located on the empire's border. Nether Energy enveloped the area year-round, and players' Stamina consumption was several times higher than in the outside world. In addition, the mountain range's Demonic Beasts were all Level 70 and above. Hence, very few players came here to level up.
However, several thousand players had gathered in front of a stream in the mountain range. Even the weakest among these players was Level 62. In the current God's Domain, these players would definitely be considered experts.
However, these thousands of experts were divided into two factions. One side had less than three to four hundred people, while the other side had thousands of people surrounding these three to four hundred people.
If players from the Storm Empire were here, they would definitely be shocked. The 400 players surrounded were all core members of Twilight Echo, a first-rate Guild. Every one of these players was a pillar of support for the Guild. Among them, 20 to 30 players were top-ranking experts in the Storm Empire. In the eyes of ordinary players, they were unreachable existences. Countless players would be envious if they managed to latch onto one of these players' thighs. Meanwhile, the strongest player among these players was Dark Wave, who ranked among the top ten in his class in the Storm Empire.
Many powers resided in the Storm Empire, and the empire's player population was even more frightening. Experts were as common as clouds in the sky. Those who ranked among the top 10 in their class in the Storm Empire would rank among the top 20 or 30 in a kingdom's overall combat power list.
With such a group of experts, they wouldn't even be afraid of a 10,000-man elite army, but now, they were facing an army of less than 3,000 players. Not only did these experts' expressions turn grim, but they also revealed a hint of fear in their eyes.
"Nature Hall is a mighty superpower, yet it sure is giving Twilight Echo face. It actually sent Vice Guild Leader Owl," Twilight Echo's Dark Wave said as he stared at Dark Wave. Fear flashed in his eyes as he stared at a bear-like, ferocious man before him. The man carried two Epic ranked axes on his back.
Originally, Owl Life had only been an ordinary expert. However, after joining God's Domain, he had continued to challenge the various experts in God's Domain. As a result, his strength had skyrocketed. Eventually, he had become a famous expert in the Storm Empire. Later, he had caught the Nature Hall's attention. After joining the Guild, his growth had skyrocketed, and he had quickly become one of the Guild's most capable generals. He had even defeated the super-first-rate Guild Nine-star Family's peak experts multiple times, eventually becoming one of the Guild's Vice Guild Leaders.
This was especially true for Xiao Ming, who had single-handedly killed five of the Nine-star Family's top experts and destroyed a town with a five-thousand-man team, which had shaken the entire Storm Empire.
Although Dark Wave was one of the Storm Empire's top 10 experts in his class, Owl Life was one of the top 10 experts in overall combat power. Although the difference between the top 10 in their class and the top 10 in overall combat power didn't seem too big, the difference between them was like the difference between a firefly and the moon.
If Owl Life wanted to, he could kill every one of Twilight Echo's experts by himself.
"Guild Leader Dark Wave, since I've come, you should know Nature Hall's stance on this matter. Twilight Echo had best not make a mistake," Owl Life said, smiling at Dark Wave. His words sounded more like an order than a warning.
"Twilight Echo has already given up all of its resource-rich lands. We've even moved to this remote location to give up on developing in the Storm Empire. What more do you want?" Dark Wave gripped his greatsword, his expression darkening.
"That's why the Guild Leader sent me here to give you a warning," Owl Life said, chuckling. "Either you submit to us, or you disappear from God's Domain. Don't think that you can develop in peace by hiding in this remote location. There is no third option."
Owl Life's words were final, and Dark Wave's expression darkened further.
No one could've imagined that the opening of the Auction Arena would intensify the competition between God's Domain's major powers to such an extent. Meanwhile, to strengthen its control over the Storm Empire, Nature Hall had even gone as far as to declare an all-out war against God's Domain.
"Guild Leader, why don't we fight them?!"
"That's right! At worst, we'll fight to the death!"
In response to Nature Hall's relentless pursuit, Twilight Echo's experts prepared to fight to the death.
"Fight to the death? Do you think you're worthy?" Owl Life could not help but laugh when he heard Twilight Echo's words.
Twilight Echo's members were infuriated by Owl Life's words. Only Dark Wave remained silent, unable to refute Owl Life's claims. It wasn't that he didn't have the courage to do so, but that Owl Life was telling the truth.
No one in the Guild knew better than him just how frightening the top ten players on the overall combat power list were. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them humanoid monsters. This was why the various large Guilds desperately nurtured their peak experts.
"We have no choice. Once the battle begins, I'll try to pin Owl Life down. Everyone, scatter and escape!" Dark Wave then turned to Shiuse Qiangwei and said, "Aqua, you've seen it for yourself. This matter isn't something you can resolve with your help. Think of a way to escape as well. There's no need to sacrifice your future for Twilight Echo's sake."
As Aqua Rose's fourth uncle, he was very grateful that Aqua Rose had returned to help him. However, doing so was pointless. Based on Nature Hall's attitude, even if other superpowers tried to interfere, the Nature Hall wouldn't let them off the hook. Moreover, no superpower would dare to provoke the Nature Hall. Even a super-first-rate Guild, the Nine-star Family, had lost to the Nature Hall.
Dark Wave knew that the Ling YI Society, where Shiuse Qiangwei belonged, had been developing well recently. It was already doing even better than Twilight Echo. Losing the opportunity to develop in Ling Yi for Twilight Echo simply wasn't worth it.
Shiuse Qiangwei lowered his head and gritted his teeth. He hadn't thought that Nature Hall would be so crazy. If she hadn't stored most of her weapons and equipment in the Guild Warehouse before leaving, she might've been able to fight Owl Life and allow more people to escape.
"Trying to run? Do you think you can get away? "Owl Life sneered as he watched Twilight Echo's members.
Just as the two sides were about to clash, a group of players emerged from the canyon. There were over a thousand of these players, and the leader of this group was an elegant girl in beautiful mage robes. She looked like a fairy descending from the heavens, and many of the nearby players couldn't help but turn to look at her.
The lowest-leveled among this group of players was Level 63, while the majority of them were Level 64. They would've been considered experts in any Guild at this stage of the game. Moreover, the weakest piece of equipment these players wore was Level 60 Secret-Silver rank, while some wore Level 60 Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold Equipment. Nature Hall's and Twilight Echo's members couldn't help but envy these players.
However, what caught their attention the most was the sharp aura these players radiated. They definitely weren't ordinary experts.
"Who are you? Don't you know that Nature Hall is here for business? If you don't want to get into trouble, leave! "Owl Life warned as he watched the 1,000-man army approach.
Normally, he would've ordered his subordinates to kill these players, but this 1,000-man army was clearly extraordinary. If a fight broke out, he'd have a hard time dealing with them.
"You're talking about us? We're the Ling YI Society, "Violet Cloud said, smiling faintly.
"Ling Yi? Isn't that a Guild in the distant Starmoon Kingdom? " Owl Life searched his mind for a moment, vaguely recalling such a Guild. Moreover, the Guild had developed quite well. Immediately, he asked, "Why are you here instead of developing in the Starmoon Kingdom?"
