Silverwing Town, Blue Rose Bar:
As one of the few Advanced Bars in Silverwing Town, not only was it a place for experts to exchange information, but it was also a holy place for the various well-known adventurer teams to celebrate. Hence, the Blue Rose Bar was packed with players every day.
However, at this moment, only a dozen or so people occupied the bar's three-story building.
Every one of these dozen or so people was Level 114 or above, with some even reaching Level 115. Moreover, the weapons and equipment they wore were incomparably dazzling, with the weakest piece being Level 110 Dark-Gold Equipment. As for the Level 100-plus Epic Equipment that would make peak experts drool, every one of them had at least two pieces, with some even having four pieces.
However, compared to these people's levels and equipment, their identities were even more shocking.
Everyone in the neighboring kingdoms and empires knew that these dozen or so people were Crimson Emperor's peak experts. Meanwhile, the person leading this group was even Illusory Words, one of Crimson Emperor's Vice Guild Leaders.
"Sure enough, it's just like the information we obtained from Saint's Hand. The newly born Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters are planning to capture Silverwing Town," a fierce looking Ferocious Man said as he sighed. "I'm afraid it won't be long before more Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters appear. I believe it won't be long before they capture Silverwing Town. Even if all of Ling Yi's main force members arrive, they won't be able to stop such a force."
At this point, Crimson Emperor's members fell silent.
The Grand Lord ranked Faux Saint Destroyer was already powerful enough. Now, however, a Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster had appeared. The strength and combat standards of the Faux Saint monsters made their scalps tingle. Most likely, even if they worked together, they'd still be annihilated by these Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters.
If these Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters continued to appear, just a dozen or so of them would be enough to destroy a Guild City.
"What did the Guild Leader say?" Illusory Words asked the fierce looking Ferocious Man, frowning slightly as she looked at the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters on the screen.
"The Guild Leader wants us to retreat immediately. There's no need for us to fight those Faux Saint monsters with Ling Yi," the fierce looking Ferocious Man said.
"Everyone is retreating?" Illusory Words looked at the fierce looking Ferocious Man in confusion.
Back when Crimson Emperor had sent Crimson Emperor's elite legions here, it had been their Guild Leader's orders. One could say that her Guild Leader was very supportive of Crimson Emperor's cooperation with Ling Yi. Yet, before the battle had even begun, the Guild Leader had ordered a retreat.
"That's right. Everyone, retreat. God's Domain is no longer the same as it was in the past. We have plenty of matters to deal with in the Dark Night Empire, especially with Starlink's rapid development. The Guild has already set its sights on several of our Guild Towns and Cities. Since we're powerless to stop Starlink, we might as well focus our combat power on defending our cities. I'm afraid Unyielding Soul is the same," the fierce man explained.
"What about Guild Leader Ling Yi and the main force?" Illusory Words asked.
"There's still no news. I've heard that Ling Yi's upper echelons are trying to contact Hei Yan and the others. However, their gaming cabins are completely sealed off. If they forcibly cut off the power supply, there's a high chance they'll fall into a deep coma. Hence, they can only wait," the fierce looking Ferocious Man said. "However, with the current situation, it's no longer possible for Zero Wing to make a comeback. Setting aside Starlink and the Dark World, Zero Wing has already lost its headquarters in Star-Moon Kingdom. Even if Black Flame and the others show up now, they won't be able to do anything. The difference in combat power is simply too massive. We're talking about tens of millions of Faux Saint monsters, not to mention Saint's Hand, which has been trying to replace Zero Wing all this while."
"Saint's Heart's origins are extremely mysterious. Even Blackwater's Xuanwu Chisha is extremely afraid of him. It's obvious that the power behind Saint's Heart is extraordinary. Otherwise, Xuanwu Chisha wouldn't have made such a concession in the Ore Empire."
"I understand. However, with the rate at which the Faux Saint monsters spawn, we should have no problems holding out for a dozen or so days if we work together. Retreating so soon is simply …" Illusory Words also understood the fierce man's intentions. However, she still did not wish to give up so soon.
"A dozen or so days?" Smiling bitterly, the fierce man said, "If we really could hold out for that long, the Guild Leader wouldn't have ordered a retreat so quickly."
"What do you mean?" Illusory Words asked curiously.
Tier 4 monsters were indeed very powerful, especially when it came to capturing territory. However, with Silverwing Town's defenses and the strength of their experts, they would need at least 20 to 30 Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters to take down the town.
"According to the information we collected in Saint's Hand, once the Faux Saint monsters evolve to Mythic rank, not only will their Attributes and combat power undergo a qualitative transformation, but their intellect will also undergo an earth-shattering transformation," the fierce man explained as he looked at the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster displayed in the Magic Mirror.
"Isn't it normal for their intellect to improve?" Illusory Words asked in confusion.
"Normally, a Faux Saint monster's intellect shouldn't be a problem. However, according to the information we collected from Saint's Hand, after evolving to Mythic rank, the Faux Saint monsters will gain an unimaginable ability to learn combat techniques. Moreover, the more experts they fight, the faster their intellect improves. They can be considered true monsters!" the fierce man said, shaking his head.
"How is that possible? Doesn't that mean that, aside from NPCs, nobody can suppress those Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters in the future? "Illusory Words felt that the fierce man's words were simply too frightening.
How could a combat technique be so easy to learn?
Even peak experts would have to spend several dozen hours under the guidance of a Legacy Crystal if they wanted to learn a combat technique. If they didn't have a Legacy Crystal to guide them, they wouldn't be able to learn a combat technique even after one or two months. How could a Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster possibly learn a combat technique in just a few minutes?
"I didn't believe it before, either," the fierce man said, chuckling. He then sent a video message to Illusory Words and said, "Take a look at it yourself."
When Illusory Words tapped on the video message, she immediately saw a Tier 3 Void Realm expert fighting a Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster. Before the battle began, this Tier 3 peak expert was at an absolute disadvantage. It was impossible for the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster to kill him within a short time.
However, after this Tier 3 peak expert used all of his combat techniques, the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster seemed to have gotten tired of watching this peak expert's acrobatics. It then executed a Basic Combat Technique, Footwork, and instantly killed this peak expert. Shortly afterward, this peak expert was transformed into a Faux Saint monster.
"How is this possible?"
Illusory Words's hair stood on end when she saw the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster killed.
This was because she recognized this peak expert. This peak expert was none other than Hundred Arms, the commander of Crimson Wolves, a top adventurer team in the Black Dragon Empire. Hundred Arms was so strong that he was only half a step away from reaching the Domain Realm.
Yet, despite his strength, Hundred Arms had actually killed him instantly. Moreover, he had been killed by Hundred Arms's signature footwork, Doppelganger Steps.
"That's right. That Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster only spent a little over a minute to learn Doppelganger Steps. Moreover, it was very cunning when it fought Hundred Arms. From the very beginning, the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster didn't use its full strength. Instead, it continuously squeezed out Hundred Arms's potential and forced him to use all of his techniques before killing him. That Purple Eye is currently fighting the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster, "the fierce man said, sighing deeply as he looked at Purple Eye, who was still fighting the Mythic ranked Faux Saint monster.
"No wonder the Guild Leader told us to retreat immediately. Who could possibly be a match for such a monster?" Illusory Words only recovered from her shock after some time.
With such strength, the Faux Saint monster was no longer an existence that players could deal with. Only NPCs had a chance of killing such a monster.
However, just as Illusory Words was about to order Crimson Emperor's members to retreat from Silverwing Town, the Faux Saint Mythic ranked monster's movements suddenly changed. In the blink of an eye, the Faux Saint Mythic ranked monster appeared behind Purple Eye, brandishing its spear and sending over 20 spear images at the Berserker.
This move was none other than Hundred Arms's signature Advanced Combat Technique, Falling Leaf. This move also stupefied everyone on the battlefield.
"It's still making a move?" Illusory Words could not help but sigh when she saw the spear images filling the screen.
Even a Domain Realm monster wouldn't be able to block this move, not to mention Purple Eye, who had yet to reach the Void Realm.
However, just as Illusory Words was about to turn around and leave, the Magic Mirror's screen suddenly flashed.
A bolt of lightning flashed, and a black wall rose up in the space, completely separating the twenty plus spear shadows from the purple eye. The spear shadows fell into the spatial rift, and all of their power dissipated, as if they had never appeared …
