Chapter 244 Guild War And Temple of Light’s Reward
William did not let the pessimistic views on the forum disrupt his long term expansion plans.
The City of Dawn developed at a rapid pace.
30 days had passed after the Darkness Invasion.
As the Seraphkin and the Black Lava Dukedom had defected to the City of Dawn, the regular army rapidly expanded.
(Strength of the regular army: 72,000 soldiers organized into 24 legions. Formally called the Dawn Guard Legion.]
[Reserve army: 36,000 soldiers.]
(Dawn Mercenary Team: 180,000 chosen ones and 13,000 NPCs. It is called Dawn Sharp Blade Legion.]
And it was only the beginning.
William believed that in the near future, the regular army would only become larger and stronger.
His thoughts were not just air. After all, he had many sources of soldiers from the Black Lava Dukedom, Seraphkin, Moonlight Elves, and even the Blackleaf Elves!
It was a hot afternoon.
The sun was brightly shining.
The sky was devoid of clouds.
William was at the eastern ramparts of the City of Dawn, clad in a long fitting robe. He sat on a chair covered with the skin of magical beasts, and his legs were placed on the city walls. He leisurely looked at the players below who were running around.
Many of them were busy trying to strengthen themselves.
While the skiving ones were taking their days
easy.
The hardworking players did not want to be dismissed from the Dawn Mercenary Team, so they performed daily tasks such as hunting down dark creatures.
The dark creatures were dangerous if they were not killed.
Tens of thousands of dark creatures were still hidden at the grass plain. A few active Devil’s Dens were still supplying them.
Hence, the players were busy killing the dark creatures!
On top of that, there were the Dawn Fortress and the Fire Dragon’s Instance Dungeon.
The Instance Dungeon at the Misty Valley was obsolete. As there were many wild dark creatures infestations, the chance of the players being killed was much higher than in other Instance Dungeons.
As for the reason why players challenged the Dawn Fortress Instance Dungeon, it was the money and equipment.
They would spend the money earned on their equipment and then set out to challenge the Fire Dragon’s Instance Dungeon.
The players had found a way to manage their cash-flows!
William smiled as he was pleased. The players had learned how to take care of themselves. It had not been easy!
Many people had divulged the existence of the Fire Dragon’s blood. Some of them used the blood for themselves while others exchanged the blood for secret manuals.
Many strategy guides also appeared on the forum.
The easiest way was to set up a legion with Legendary difficulty.
As long as 3,000 professionals were provided adequate equipment, they could collaborate with Augustine and his soldiers to defeat the Fire Dragon.
Then, the professionals could attack Augustine and the hundreds of bounty hunters after taking care of the Fire Dragon. It would complete the Instance Dungeon.
And if they let the Fire Dragon escape from the magical barrier, the players would lose out to Lord William, who would kill the Dragon. The players would be left with nothing.
It was easier said than done. It was actually not easy to set up a legion with 3,000 players.
The most important factor was how to distribute the dragon blood!
The Legendary Fire Dragon’s Instance Dungeon had many pieces of equipment and loot like the Dragon scale, Dragon flesh, Dragon bones, and Dragon teeth. Recently, some players had even discovered the Fire Dragon’s treasure location. They could obtain a treasure chest.
When the loot was sold for gold coins, it was distributed to the 3,000 players to cover the cost of the one gold coin fee.
But the most frustrating thing was the dragon blood!
The Legendary Instance Dungeon could have about 100 to 300 drops of Epic dragon blood. There was a 20% chance of having 100 drops of dragon blood.
The most blood that a Legendary Instance Dungeon could offer was only sufficient for four players.
In addition, there was a completion rate for the Instance Dungeon. If the players sustained minimal casualties, the loot would be proportionately more.
Currently, the players were unable to complete the Instance Dungeon at other difficulty levels. The players could only make use of the revival BUG in the Legendary difficulty to achieve victory.
Fortunately, 100 drops of Epic dragon blood were guaranteed.
3,000 players were required to obtain the dragon blood for one player. Hence, the guild leader had to decide how to compensate for the rest of the players.
For the past two days, the Misty Rain Pavilion guild that had 30,000 members became embroiled in disputes due to the dragon blood. Misty Rain Jiangnan gave the dragon blood to his wife in the game...
Ahem!
There was a lot of mayhem in the guild.
The management of the guild was unhappy because they had contributed and did not get any rewards. They decided to quit the guild with their followers.
As such, the wife of the guild leader was also unhappy. The members were arguing over the allocation of the dragon blood, and they blamed it on the wife.
She brought a close male friend and apologized to a player who was making trouble!
But before she could apologize, she became furious and killed the player six times before she stopped.
The player lost half of his equipment after six deaths. From a player with top-notch combat power, he had become an ordinary player...
The killed player made numerous complaints on the forum.
“It’s wartime,” a player shouted at the east gate of the City of Dawn.
“Tsk, tsk, there are so many players.” A player by the name of “Troublemaker” sighed in depression.
“Take a look. The city lord is up on the ramparts. Is he watching the guild war?”
“The prince is just lazing around. He’s either sunbathing at the city lord’s palace or on the ramparts. He’s probably trying to find an optimal location for sunbathing.
“He has to ensure that both sides of his body have the exact tan.”
“Haha, how do you know that Prince William is sunbathing on the balcony? Do you have the screenshots?”
“My friend told me. He wanted to take a screenshot, but the prince discovered him!
“The prince pointed the middle finger at him, and my friend suffered millions of Thunder damage. But since he has only 3,000 Health points, he died many times!”
William raised his brow and did not make any sounds. He remembered the name of the player. Whoever dared to take pictures of William in the future would be badly beaten.
William was at the east gate to watch the show.
The guards had been instructed not to intervene as long as players did not battle in the City of Dawn. William did not care how the chosen ones battle with each other.
The west gate area was meant for the players to engage in ‘Capture the flag’ missions.
The south gate was for the official transportation routes. Fighting was prohibited.
The east gate area was for settling disputes. The guilds, organizations, and clans could settle their differences in the east gate area!
And what about the north gates?
Apologies!
They were closed most of the time.
In the north, there were two huge city gates, leading to the grass plain. These gates were for transportation and trade routes. In order to prevent the dark creatures from attacking, they remained close most of the time.
Before long, two groups of players gathered. The leader of the Misty Rain Pavilion was furious.
Only 9,000 members had quitted his guild, but 20,000 players had gathered on the battlefield. Obviously, other guilds were making use of the situation.
Misty Rain Pavilion only had 15,000 players online, and it was in a precarious situation.
The guild leader rode on a Beginner-level warhorse (Porsche) and arrived in front of the shield-bearers. He coldly said, “Kind Like Water, from the start of the game beta, I’ve treated you like a brother. Now, you’re conniving with Righteous Sprout to deal with me?”
That was right; the other adversaries were players from Righteous Sprout.
Kind Like Water, who had lost more than half of his equipment, wanted to speak, but the leader of Righteous Sprout ‘Cute Little Fairy’ stopped him. She walked out with her large 36D chest and sarcastically said, “Cut the crap. Let’s immediately settle our differences. If you don’t, consider yourself lost!”
“What grounds do you have?” the wife of Misty Rain Jiangnan asked.
“Shut up. I haven’t mentioned your external affairs. Anyway, you don’t have a right to speak either.
“Let me tell you, Misty Rain Jiangnan, if you don’t wish to fight, then admit defeat. There is no reason to have a fight just because your members quit your guild.
“You are going too far. Righteous Sprout will uphold justice. What can you do?” Cute Little Fairy said viciously.
The most important factor was...
The guild leader Misty Rain Jiangnan could have been cuckolded!
Misty Rain Jiangnan turned back his head and noticed the grave expression of his in-game-wife. It was as though the wife had been exposed while committing a sordid crime.
There could be photographic or video evidence of her deeds...
“I’ll fight. Brothers, let’s charge!” Misty Rain Jiangnan was pissed. His adversaries were going too far. He would investigate his wife’s external affairs after the battle.
Cute Little Fairy squinted as she raised her magic wand. She shouted, “Brothers of Righteous Sprout, charge!”
“Shred them. The prince is on our side.”
The players were bewildered. Prince William was obviously not taking any sides.
There was bloodshed.
The fighting continued endlessly.
After fighting for half an hour, many players died six times before they quit the battle.
Righteous Sprout achieved final victory.
What about the tens of thousands of pieces of dropped equipment at the east gate area?
The victors had five minutes to grab the loot!
After that, the players could retrieve their equipment.
In the City of Dawn, only the victors could collect the loot. Nobody else could obtain the loot.
This was not a setting of the game!
It was a rule set by the City of Dawn.
The leaders of the large guilds and clubs had a meeting. Even though they would engage in battles, they could not let other people look down on them and lose their equipment during battles.
Especially when the players were aligned with the City of Dawn and the subordinates of Prince William. There was no reason to steal equipment from other players.
However, someone would always try to steal equipment on the battlefield.
This depended on the player’s speed and whether he could escape fast enough!
The great battles between the guilds entertained the players of the City of Dawn. They were discussing the battles excitedly.
But although the battles were entertaining, the players found them to be meaningless now...
“If someone asks me about my greatest regret, my answer is... becoming a Legendary BOSS!
“Because I have no chance to have fun with the players.” William felt nostalgic. He squinted his eyes and looked at the sky.
Time passed.
There were explosions in the sky.
A Temple Knight came from afar. When he arrived at the east gate, he gradually slowed down. He stood gracefully at the east gate and created a large pit.
Meanwhile, he loudly shouted, “The City of Dawn formed an alliance with the southeastern region to defeat the Darkness Invasion. All nine continents were overrun by the dark creatures. But only the City of Dawn managed to achieve victory on the Legendary continent!
“The Temple of Light would like to reward the City of Dawn!”
His thick and loud voice reverberated in all directions.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised!
William leaped over the walls and landed at the city gate. He respectfully looked at the Temple Knight and said, “Thank you, Temple of Light, for the graciousness. Thank you, messenger, for making the trip.”
“No problem. It’s my duty. Please keep this space ring.”
“Messenger, have a good journey. I have some good wine for you to take back.”
“This wine...”
Dee!
