Overlord!
Drifting Rain!
Clear Water Pavilion!
Black Dragon Hall!
Listening Rain Pavilion!
From every direction.
More than fifty guilds from Inferno City, an army of some hundred thousand players, closed in on the Divine Temple with enough force to swallow heaven and earth!
On the field.
The players of the Iron Blood, Golden Age and Chaotic World guilds had pulled together and finally broken through the Holy Hall Guild's encirclement, and were just getting ready to escort Ning Xi into the Divine Temple.
Whoosh!
Ahead, from inside the Divine Temple map, three more player forces charged out:
Genesis!
Divine Nation!
Mortal Dust!
If the fifty-odd guilds on the outside only looked frightening, and each one taken alone had just a few hundred to a thousand members and counted as a second- or third-rate small guild in Inferno City.
Then these three guilds now facing them were true heavyweights!
"Divine Nation Guild, total registered players 10,368, ranked second on Inferno City's guild ranking!"
"Genesis Guild, total registered players 5,240, ranked third on Inferno City's guild ranking!"
"Mortal Dust Guild, total registered players 5,020, ranked fourth on Inferno City's guild ranking!"
"Dude, where are you even getting these numbers? The Guild Creation Order hasn't even been released, there isn't a single proper guild in Divine Oracle, and the devs haven't put out any guild ranking mechanic. Quit making up intel and shaking everyone's morale!"
"The forum! Some experts did a verified analysis based on each big guild's headcount and average combat power!"
"Then we're done! Just these three guilds are enough to crush us easily, never mind the fifty-some more outside..."
While the players of the Iron Blood and Golden Age guilds were panicking.
Wang Junjie not only felt no worry at all, he said smugly, "Where did you put my Chaotic World Guild, number one on Inferno City's guild ranking?"
"This forum guild ranking verification is fucking awesome!"
"Proof that my Chaotic World Guild is still the strongest! Just over five thousand people, and it still ranks above Divine Nation with ten thousand! That's what you call fucking authority! Hahahaha!"
As he spoke, Wang Junjie turned to look at Ning Xi and said, "Sister-in-law Mo, don't panic! Watch me kick Divine Nation and punch Genesis and Mortal Dust! Today, if anyone can stop you, I, Wang Junjie, will eat shit on a livestream!"
"Brothers, kill for me!"
At Wang Junjie's command.
The Chaotic World Guild, voted number one on Inferno City's guild ranking by ten million players on the forum, charged at the Divine Temple without a backward glance with more than five thousand elite players.
Seeing the Chaotic World players rush forward.
The Iron Blood and Golden Age guilds weren't about to be outdone.
All players, attack!
Facing them.
Chen Feng, Liu Kai and Yu Jin, the three leaders of the three great Heaven Ranking guilds, Divine Nation, Genesis and Mortal Dust, also gave orders:
"Brothers, kill for me!"
"Cripple them!"
"Wipe them out, leave none standing!"
Charge!!!
Amid battle cries that shook the sky.
Tens of thousands of players.
[Tactical Boost].
[Defense Boost].
[Bloodthirsty Frenzy].
Every buff skill was activated!
Each of them burst into their fiercest fighting spirit!
Players on both sides clashed outside the Divine Temple map!
Whoosh!
Boom boom boom!
Flashing blades and swords, dazzling magic light.
Flashes of white light marking players' deaths rose one after another.
In one corner of the battlefield.
Swish!
As the Illusion Mage Zhao Lingyun swung her staff, the A-Rank [Polymorph] combined with the SS-Rank talent [Ever-Changing] turned the entire crowd of enemy players across a wide area in front of her into sheep! All of them had their defense sharply reduced!
Ning Fei, together with his Legendary pet Medusa Queen, rampaged through the "flock" and quickly harvested countless enemies.
But the area they had just cleared was immediately filled again by players charging in from outside.
Ning Fei frowned. "This isn't working! There are too many of them! Like this, we'll never fight our way through!"
Zhao Lingyun said, "Let's put Ning Xi first and cover her into the Divine Temple!"
"No!" Though the scene was a mess, Ning Fei's mind stayed clear. "Everyone knows now that my sister is going into the Divine Temple for her quest. She's become the target of everyone's attacks. The harder we try to cover her into the Divine Temple, the more impossible it gets!"
Zhao Lingyun said helplessly, "Then what do we do?"
Ning Fei's mind raced. "I asked my sister already. Her quest objective is to go into the Divine Temple and find the quest item, the Holy Wings!"
"She doesn't have to go into the Divine Temple herself. If we sneak in, find the Holy Wings and hand them to my sister, it's the same thing!"
Zhao Lingyun frowned. "But with this many of them, wouldn't it be even harder for us to sneak into the Divine Temple?"
An idea flashed through Ning Fei's mind. "It's fine! I have a way!"
"Ling'er, stay with me! After we get into the Divine Temple, I'll need your help!"
As he spoke, Ning Fei grabbed Zhao Lingyun's slender wrist and pulled her toward the Divine Temple, shouting at the top of his voice as he ran:
"Charge!"
"Wang Junjie's over there!"
"Brothers, cover me, I'm going to kill Wang Junjie!"
Zhao Lingyun couldn't help laughing out loud.
"What's this? This is your plan?"
The scene was pure chaos.
With so many guilds in a melee.
Nobody could tell who was who.
And Ning Fei's and Zhao Lingyun's IDs, [Shadow] and [Zhao Ling'er], carried no guild identifiers.
At Ning Fei's shout, the players of Divine Nation, Genesis and Mortal Dust automatically took him for an ally.
Finally, one assassin from the Divine Nation Guild saw through Ning Fei's fake-teammate act and charged at him with a knife.
But Liu Kai, a Soul Archer, leapt in from the side and shot him into white light with a rapid-fire volley of whiz-whiz-whiz-whiz!
"Dang it! Are you Divine Nation guys insane? Killing your own people!"
After taking care of the Divine Nation assassin who was about to ambush Ning Fei.
Liu Kai still remembered to wink at Ning Fei: "Go, bro! Go take out Wang Junjie! I've got this side!"
Ning Fei's acting was spot on. He thumped his chest, pointed at Liu Kai, and gave Liu Kai a "brothers at heart" gesture in return.
Then, under Liu Kai's "cover," he broke out smoothly and got into the Divine Temple.
Liu Kai was suddenly confused.
"Huh, wasn't that guy going to kill Wang Junjie? Isn't Wang Junjie over there? How did he end up charging into the Divine Temple?"
"Forget it, who cares! They're all on our side anyway!"
...
While Divine Nation, Genesis and Mortal Dust, together with the other fifty-odd guilds, were doing everything to pin down the Iron Blood, Golden Age and Chaotic World guilds outside the Divine Temple.
Inside the Divine Temple.
On Ji Ningshuang's orders, Han Cheng was leading the Blood Dance Guild's players through the entire Divine Temple map in search of the Holy Wings.
Rooar... rooar... rooar...
As the Blood Dance Guild's players cut down every [Spirit Beast] monster in the Divine Temple.
Right then.
Rumble!
With a shaking of heaven and earth.
Suddenly, at the core of the Divine Temple map, a flash of blood light burst out.
Then a Spirit Beast BOSS with a pair of golden wings spawned.
Seeing the golden wings on the Spirit Beast BOSS's back, Ji Ningshuang's eyes lit up at once!
"That's..."
"The Holy Wings!"
