Fire Dragon Empire, a border town.
At this moment, a 3,000-man team of Tier 3 players was resting in a bar on either side of the street. Both the town's players and NPCs feared this team.
This team's average level was Level 125, one or two levels higher than the Tier 3 experts in the Fire Dragon Empire's imperial capital. The leader of this team was a valiant, long-haired, white-clad woman.
When the players passing by saw this white-clothed woman, they were filled with respect and fear.
This woman was none other than Cold Shadow, Mythology's first Vice Guild Leader to reach Tier 4. She had also reached Level 133, 11 levels higher than the average Level of Tier 3 experts on the frontlines, which was 122. Even from over a hundred yards away, she radiated a chilling aura that made Tier 3 experts shudder involuntarily.
"Vice Guild Leader Cold Shadow, we've just received news from the Twin Towers Kingdom." White Feather, a Level 130, Tier 4 female Guardian Knight, suddenly approached Shi Feng and said, "Starlink suffered a miserable defeat. Thanks to Hei Yan's sudden appearance, aside from Guild Leader Lu Xingluo, none of the other superpowers' experts managed to escape. Nearly 20,000 Tier 3 experts are currently locked up in Sky Spring City's prison. I'm afraid they'll have to wait another ten days before they can be released."
"He's finally willing to show himself." "Although Hei Yan did a great job this time and dealt a heavy blow to Starlink and the various superpowers, Lu Xingluo managed to escape. I'm afraid that Ling Yi will be in a lot of trouble in the future. After all, the person standing behind Lu Xingluo is no ordinary person, and that person is determined to obtain the Secret Covenant Tower."
"According to our insider's report, Hei Yan also killed Hundred Ghosts' Qi Yuan." White Feather could not help but whisper, "Out of Hundred Ghosts' team of several dozen players, only the vice commander, Jade Leaf, managed to escape …"
Cold Shadow, who was resting with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes. She couldn't believe her eyes. "Is Hei Yan crazy? He actually killed Qi Yuan? Doesn't he know that Qi Yuan's identity is not simple? Even the Five Great Super Guilds have to avoid them. How dare he? "
Awakened Abyss was a genius that Hundred Ghosts had focused on nurturing. Hundred Ghosts treated him like a treasure, and Hundred Ghosts had even allowed Jade Leaf, a Tier 4 expert, to travel with him. Just from this alone, one could see Awakened Abyss's status and identity.
Meanwhile, even the Five Great Super Guilds didn't dare provoke Hundred Ghosts's forces. After all, Hundred Ghosts's group was simply too special. They couldn't be judged by common sense. Currently, they could only cooperate with Hundred Ghosts. This was also Odin's reminder to them. Hence, Mythology had been avoiding Hundred Ghosts's members even now.
On the other hand, Shifeng was simply too ruthless. Not only did they go against Hundred Ghosts, they even killed Hundred Ghosts' Qi Yuan. If Hundred Ghosts knew about this, they would definitely go crazy.
"Are we going to attack together this time?" White Feather couldn't help but ask.
Mythology also wanted to eliminate Ling Yi's Guild as soon as possible. Now that Shifeng had heavily injured Starlink and the various superpowers, Lu Xingluo and the other Super Guilds definitely wouldn't let this matter rest. They might even fight to the death.
After all, they had lost so many Tier 3 experts. If they couldn't secure the Secret Covenant Tower, they wouldn't be able to replenish their losses quickly.
In addition, Hundred Ghosts would most likely teach Ling Yi a lesson.
At that time, the battle at the Secret Covenant Tower would definitely be exciting. This would also be the best opportunity for Mythology to take action. After all, a fat piece of meat like Ling Yi was extremely tempting even to the Five Great Super Guilds.
"No, it's not time yet," Cold Shadow said, shaking her head. Cold Shadow shook her head. "We've just completed that Inferior Legendary Quest and obtained the Mana Body Legacy. It won't be too late to take action after we absorb this Legacy and improve our Mana Bodies. After all, Black Flame's side has most likely already made significant progress in the Mana Body. I'm afraid we're no match for him right now."
"I understand. I'll notify my subordinates and have them head to the Demon God's Cave to make preparations," White Feather said, nodding.
"There's no need for us to head to the Demon God's Cave right now. We're only here to learn the Legacy. We can learn it anywhere," Cold Feather said, chuckling. Cold Shadow looked at the message her subordinate just sent her and smiled faintly. "Now, let's set off for the Secret Covenant Tower. Perhaps we can take this opportunity to learn more about Hundred Ghosts' strength."
"Hundred Ghosts is going to take action already?" White Feather was surprised to hear this.
The strength Ling Yi had displayed so far was frightening. Setting aside the five Tier 4 players, just his two Tier 4 Personal Guards were frighteningly powerful. With so many combatants working together, no player force could possibly contend with them. Even the Five Great Super Guilds could only exhaust Ling Yi in various ways.
They had no chance of victory in a head-on confrontation.
It was truly hard to imagine that Hundred Ghosts would actually take revenge on Ling Yi after losing several dozen players.
"Not exactly," Cold Feather said, chuckling. A hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes as she said, "You'll know when you get there. If Ling Yi doesn't give up on the Secret Covenant Tower, he'll most likely be doomed!"
After Cold Feather finished giving out her instructions, White Feather gathered a group of peak experts and followed Cold Feather to the Secret Covenant Tower.
Twin Towers Kingdom, Sky Spring City:
"Guild Leader, we've finished tabulating the loot," Fire Dance said as she approached the Resting Men. With an excited look in her eyes, she continued, "We've obtained nearly 20,000 weapons and equipment in this war. Among them, there are over 6,000 Level 110-plus Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment, and over 2,000 Level 110-plus Dark-Gold Weapons and Equipment. The rest are Level 110-plus Secret-Silver Weapons and Equipment. These should be enough to replenish the Guild's losses."
Currently, Ling Yi was managed by her, Youlan, and A Melancholy Smile. They mainly supported the Guild's affairs in the Twin Towers Kingdom. As for the Guild's Weapon Warehouse, it was a huge headache.
Before she took charge of the Guild, she hadn't realized how important a Guild's Weapon Warehouse was to a Guild. However, after clashing with the various superpowers, she fully understood what a Guild's foundation was.
Normally, players would only judge a Guild's strength based on the number of experts it had. However, only in a real war would one realize that a Guild's true foundation was the quantity and quality of its weapons and equipment.
If not for the support of Candlelight's many Lifestyle players, they wouldn't have survived until today. Most of the Guild's members would've left, one after another. They wouldn't have stayed in a Guild that didn't even have weapons and equipment.
"Give half of the weapons and equipment to Crimson Emperor and Unyielding Soul," Youlan said, smiling. "I'm sure they've had a hard time recently. These weapons and equipment should be enough for them to cope for a while."
When it came to Guild wars, Shi Feng was more than familiar with them. He had experienced situations where only Bronze Weapons and Equipment remained in the Guild Warehouse after a desperate struggle.
However, at that time, his Guild had only been a small Guild. If a superpower's Warehouse only had Bronze Weapons and Equipment, the Guild's members would've long since fled.
After all, even if they lost levels, as long as their weapons and equipment were good enough, they could quickly regain their levels. If they didn't even have good weapons and equipment, they might as well remain independent players. At the very least, they wouldn't have to worry about being hunted down by enemy forces.
However, before Shifeng could issue any further instructions, Illusory Words suddenly approached Shi Feng with an incomparably solemn expression.
"President Hei Yan, something big has happened in Barren Forest City, which isn't far from the Secret Covenant Tower!" At this moment, Illusory Words had lost her usual calmness. Hurriedly, she said, "According to Crimson Emperor's report, a large number of Faux Saint monsters have suddenly appeared. There are roughly one million of them, and the majority of them are Level 135 Great Lords. Meanwhile, roughly 1,000 Level 140-plus Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters are leading the group. They are currently swarming toward the Secret Covenant Tower …"
"One thousand Mythic monsters?"
Upon hearing Illusory Words's report, Fire Dance was stunned for a moment. She even wondered if she had misheard.
It was extremely difficult to encounter a single Mythic monster on a daily basis. Even if one encountered one, ordinary Tier 4 experts could only defeat them, not kill them. In fact, killing a Mythic monster required teamwork.
However, after the system's major update, Mythic monsters had gained sentience. Not only did they possess high combat standards, but they could also cooperate with each other.
Under normal circumstances, Tier 4 experts would have to take a detour if they encountered two or three Mythic monsters of the same level. Meanwhile, a group of over a dozen Mythic monsters was more than enough to conquer a city.
What the heck was one thousand Mythic monsters?
"One thousand?" Shifeng was also surprised to hear this.
The most powerful monster tide he had ever seen had only consisted of 100 Mythic monsters. Even so, such a monster tide could easily destroy a Guild City with several Tier 4 players.
Now, 1,000 Faux Saint monsters had appeared. Moreover, these Faux Saint monsters possessed very high combat standards. This was definitely a force capable of annihilating heaven and earth.
"That's right. There are at least 1,000 of them," Illusory Words said, nodding. Illusory Words nodded and said with an unsightly expression, "Based on their movement speed, they'll reach the Secret Covenant Tower in around ten hours. If we evacuate the tower now, we should still be able to make it."
Even if they had a city to defend, they had no hope of defeating 1,000 Level 140-plus Mythic monsters. Not to mention, now that they had no city to defend, the only thing they could do was give up. After all, if they were killed by those Faux Saint monsters, the death penalty would be extremely heavy.
"It's no wonder Lu Xingluo was so confident when he left. It turns out that this is his trump card." Realization dawned on Shifeng. Chuckling, he said, "It seems they're going all out this time."
It might be fine if such a large number of Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters were mobilized in a neutral map. However, since they were within the borders of a kingdom, the kingdom's army would definitely take action. Moreover, a kingdom's army was not as simple as players thought.
This was especially true in a situation where NPCs had gone berserk. Once the NPCs took action, even if there were thousands of Mythic monsters, they would most likely suffer.
With so many Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters, Saint's Hand's side had most likely used up all of its trump cards. Yet, Lu Xingluo and the others were willing to risk going against the kingdom's army to snatch the Secret Covenant Tower.
Anxiously, Fire Dance asked, "Guild Leader, should we withdraw our people from the Secret Covenant Tower now?"
"No! Have them gather outside the Secret Covenant Tower first! " Shifeng said, shaking his head. A hint of madness flashed in his eyes as he said, "Since they're going all out, we'll naturally have to play with them!"
Upon hearing Shifeng's words, Illusory Words and Fire Dance both felt that Shifeng had lost his mind. Even at a time like this, he actually intended to fight for personal gain.
At this stage of the game, aside from NPCs, no player could deal with 1,000 Mythic ranked Faux Saint monsters.
"President Hei Yan." Illusory Words suddenly thought of something, and a hint of shock flashed across her eyes as she asked, "That thing … Don't tell me you've already … completed it?"
"Mhm, I've already completed it." Shifeng nodded. "However, I still need to make some final adjustments. Next, I'll have to trouble you two to gather your people at the Secret Covenant Tower as soon as possible. I'll wait for you there!"
After saying so, Shifeng summoned his Thunder Eagle and flew towards the Secret Covenant Tower.
