Inside the resplendent meeting room, as White Feather relayed the information she received, the originally heavy atmosphere in the room grew even colder and heavier. It was as if time had frozen in the room.
"Defeated? Moreover, they were all killed? How is this possible?! "
Cold Shadow was also stunned by White Feather's words. After some time, she finally snapped out of her daze. She felt that White Feather was either joking or that the information she received was wrong.
It was already unbelievable that Saint's Hand and the Faux Saint army had failed to destroy Silverwing Town.
Yet, now, not only had Saint's Hand and the Faux Saint army been defeated, but Ling Yi had also annihilated them. This was even more unbelievable than telling her that a superpower had been instantly annihilated.
After all, there were over four million Faux Saint monsters heading toward Silverwing Town. Moreover, these monsters were not roadside monsters that could be killed with a single slash. Even the weakest of these monsters was a Great Lord ranked Faux Saint Saboteur. Even a six-man party led by a Tier 3 expert would need over ten minutes to kill one of these monsters.
Even if Silverwing Town's players stood still and allowed them to kill over four million Faux Saint monsters, it would still take a very long time.
Meanwhile, only two hours had passed since the Faux Saint army attacked Silverwing Town. So, how could Ling Yi possibly annihilate the Faux Saint army?
Not to mention, the Faux Saint monsters were different from ordinary monsters. This was especially true for the Grand Lord ranked Faux Saint Saboteurs. These monsters would flee for their lives once their HP reached a certain threshold.
With over 100,000 Faux Saint Saboteurs fleeing in all directions, not to mention one Silverwing Town's players, even ten Silverwing Town's players wouldn't be able to annihilate them.
However, when Cold Shadow asked this question, whether it was White Feather or the various superpowers' upper echelons sitting around the table, they all revealed bitter and self-deprecating smiles on their faces.
If possible, they really hoped that the information their subordinates sent them was a lie. However, the information they received wasn't just written descriptions. There were also all kinds of images and videos. It was so realistic that it felt like a dream.
Normally, when their subordinates passed on urgent information, they would, at most, send a few paragraphs of text.
Yet, every one of them was as diligent as hot-blooded youths. They even sent over a dozen battle videos with all kinds of explanations. It was as if they were afraid that their subordinates wouldn't understand the meaning behind the information.
White Feather didn't say anything else as she forwarded the report to Cold Shadow.
When Cold Shadow finished reading White Feather's report, she was similarly dumbfounded. She wasn't much better off than White Feather and the others.
The town's unbreakable defensive magic array!
Over 300 Personal Guards that could take on the Faux Saint army head-on!
This was a Tier 4 NPC that could heavily injure eight Faux Saint Devourers with a single attack!
A Tier 4 Personal Guard that could render over a thousand experts immobile and turn them into ash with a single thought!
Each one was more exaggerated than the last, and each one was more unbelievable than the last.
If Cold Shadow wasn't certain that Saint's Hand intended to eliminate Ling Yi and knew that the Faux Saint army heading to Silverwing Town was real, she would've thought that Saint's Hand and Ling Yi had teamed up to tease her.
Aside from the various superpowers in the meeting room, the eastern continent's various powers were also in an uproar.
"Is this Ling Yi's power?"
"Amazing! It's no wonder why he didn't take Saint's Hand's threat seriously and even killed Thousand Eyes. With such strength, who could possibly break through his defenses? "
"A Tier 4 Personal Guard? It seems the eastern continent is going to undergo a major change in the future. "
…
The various major powers of God's Domain had never imagined that the Faux Saint army would suffer such a crushing defeat. However, compared to the shock of the Faux Saint army's defeat, what truly shocked the various major powers was the strength of the Tier 4 NPCs.
To put it in another way, they had completely misjudged the strength of a Tier 4 NPC.
Previously, although they had held Tier 4 NPCs in awe, it was only due to their Mythic strength.
Nowadays, not only were there more and more Tier 3 experts in God's Domain, but they were also learning Tier 3 Skills and Spells. There were even experts with fully unlocked Mana Bodies appearing one after another. Players with combat power rivaling Tier 4 were no longer rare. In fact, killing Tier 4 Mythic monsters had become a common occurrence. Hence, everyone only held Tier 4 NPCs in awe.
He felt that Tier 4 NPCs weren't all that amazing. At most, they could only affect Mythic monsters in small-scale battles. Or rather, they were only slightly stronger than Mythic monsters. They couldn't affect the overall situation at all.
Now, however, it would seem that they had been gravely mistaken.
Not only would Tier 4 NPCs not affect the overall situation, but they would also be treated as ants. No matter how many Tier 3 experts or Tier 3 monsters there were, they would be nothing more than a joke before a Tier 4 NPC.
The most laughable part was that the various powers were still feeling complacent over the increase in their Tier 3 experts. Many superpowers, in particular, felt that their Tier 3 experts had already surpassed Ling Yi's. Even Tier 3 Personal Guards were no match for them now. Hence, these superpowers had even set their sights on Ling Yi's Stone Forest City.
Now, however, it would seem that those superpowers were nothing more than a joke.
They claimed that Ling Yi's main force members were no longer around, that Ling Yi was no longer as strong as before, that Ling Yi was merely relying on his past achievements, and that it was only a matter of time before the various superpowers devoured him.
Meanwhile, in the Dark World, due to the news of the Faux Saint army's defeat, the Dark World was in an uproar.
"Amazing! With this, even the restless powers hidden in the Dark World will have to reconsider their actions, "Blue Rainbow said, clenching her fists excitedly as she read the report her subordinate sent her.
Previously, although Dark Rhapsody's cooperation with Ling Yi had allowed them to develop rapidly in the Dark World, the number of powers targeting Dark Rhapsody had also increased significantly. As a result, the pressure on Dark Rhapsody to defend the Teleportation Gate had increased significantly.
Meanwhile, World Domination had also made a comeback. Through some unknown means, the Guild's members' levels and strength had improved rapidly, and the number of Tier 3 experts in the Guild continued to increase. World Domination had also taken advantage of this opportunity to secretly recruit many dark powers and ambush Dark Rhapsody's members. As a result, not only did Dark Rhapsody's influence in the Dark World fail to grow, but it even declined with each passing day.
Recently, more and more of Dark Rhapsody's upper echelons had been persuaded by World Domination. As a result, Dark Rhapsody's morale had waned. Rumors had also spread everywhere that Ling Yi was done for and that following Ling Yi would only lead Dark Rhapsody to its doom. Instead, Dark Rhapsody chose to cooperate with World Domination and take control of the Teleportation Gate to occupy the resources in Stone Forest City and the surrounding maps.
Now that Zero Wing had a Tier 4 Personal Guard, who would dare oppose World Domination?
While the various powers that had allied themselves with Ling Yi were rejoicing, Silverwing Town in the distant Ore Empire had also entered its final phase. Several thousand Ling Yi's members were currently calculating the Contribution Points of the players that had come to help them.
Unlike other monsters, the Faux Saint monsters did not have a chance to drop weapons or equipment that could significantly increase a player's strength. However, the Faux Saint monsters provided a lot of EXP, at least three to four times that of monsters of the same level. This was also one of the reasons why many players did not leave the Faux Saint territory.
Although the Faux Saint monsters' territory was very dangerous, the EXP they provided was bountiful. It could be said that as long as players did not die, their leveling speed in the Faux Saint monsters' territory would be at least two to three times faster than in the outside world.
Now that Silverwing Town had annihilated the four-million-plus Faux Saint monsters without suffering any casualties, the EXP they obtained was simply amazing. On average, Ling Yi's members had leveled up once, while the low-leveled players had even leveled up twice. Their leveling speed was simply unprecedented.
At the same time, due to Silverwing Town's victory, the players and members of the various powers operating in the Ore Empire's other Towns and Cities started making their way to Silverwing Town. They all wished to develop in Silverwing Town in the future. There were even many Tier 3 experts who wished to join Ling Yi. This situation delighted Youlan and A Melancholy Smile.
Currently, what Ling Yi lacked the most were Tier 3 experts. After all, players needed to be at least Tier 3 before they could enter Level 100-plus Team Dungeons. Previously, due to the absence of Ling Yi's main force members, Ling Yi's supply of rare materials for Team Dungeons had greatly decreased. Hence, Ling Yi had no choice but to purchase the rare materials through other means. However, these rare materials were very important to the various powers, so very few of them were available for sale. Hence, Ling Yi's ability to produce Level 100-plus weapons and equipment was greatly limited.
While everyone in Silverwing Town rejoiced, the Shifeng quietly returned to Ling Yi's Residence. He planned to log out of the game and rest while leaving Youlan and A Melancholy Smile to handle the post-war affairs.
This was because he had killed eight more Faux Saint Devourers, and eight Soul Lights had entered his body. Although he no longer had the Soul Magic Array, his brain had become abnormally active. This wasn't normal for someone like him, who had been in the virtual gaming cabin for over a dozen days. Hence, he needed to log out of the game, rest, and check his condition.
Shortly after Shifeng clicked the "Log Out" button, the system entered its 30-second countdown. Suddenly, Youlan's communication request reached his ears.
"Guild Leader, Mythology's Fang Shihan has suddenly arrived at our headquarters. Our people couldn't stop them at all. They are currently in the first-floor hall, and they wish to speak with you. They say that it concerns Ling Yi's future. Do you wish to meet with them?" Youlan asked anxiously.
"Speak with me?" Shifeng was slightly surprised by Youlan's request. However, he quickly smiled and said, "This is interesting. Have someone lead them to the top-floor reception room. I'll head over immediately."
