903 Chapter 521: The Obelisk And Its Powerful Guards [2/2]
“The lord wants you to go in and see him.”
A few immediately perked up.
“Yes, sir!”
He hurriedly followed.
They pa.s.sed through the giant gate more than ten meters tall and lion-embossed carving. They entered the exceptionally s.p.a.cious meeting hall.
The figure with a familiar voice sat on the long wooden table in the center of the area. Richard riveted his gaze on the flat map. It was like he thought about countermeasures for the upcoming battle.
The few approached excitedly and nervously. The players held their chests and bowed in unison.
“Big Boss Qingqiu…”
Their posture was respectful.
The greetings jolted Richard. He looked up at them.
He could not help but smile.
He waved his hand.
“Don’t make things up.”
The few men regained some liveliness. Richard continued.
“How did you come to this plane?”
The warrior commander player was the first to respond.
“Boss Qingqiu, we appeared near the territory because of the spatial rift.”
Richard nodded.
Chapter 1 of the Crimson Moon–Plane Explorer. The crack in the plane might not only appear in one area.
“Did you find anything in Ell?”
The warrior player immediately perked up when he asked about this.
“We weren’t near Lion City. We only came here because we heard that the princess of Ell raised the flag against Raging Blood Duke…”
He sounded increasingly excited as he spoke.
“On the way, we accidentally discovered a rather interesting mysterious s.p.a.ce… Boss Qing Qiu, this will interest you.”
Richard indeed looked at their expressions with interest.
“What did you find?”
The warrior player stared at his face.
“Obelisk.”
Richard’s eyes lit up.
The system remarkably mentioned in the new expansion pack, the first chapter, the Dimension Explorer: in medium-sized and above planes, there is also a unique building–an obelisk.
And capturing the obelisk would give generous rewards.
The system wouldn’t mention the obelisk if it were insignificant.
Richard asked the G.o.d of deception Tai Long and dark soul eater Kratos to pay attention to potential obelisks in the planes during the b.l.o.o.d.y battle in the rotten swap when he was in the Naga PLane.
However, they didn’t find such a thing in half the past month.
Many players had discovered the obelisk on the forum, but until now, no one initiated to say what one could gain if one captured it.
On the contrary, he often saw players complain about the exaggerated strength of the obelisk guards.
“Do you know where the obelisk of Ell is?”
The warrior player said in a deep voice, “We accidentally entered that area, but Raging Blood Duke’s subordinates discovered us. That would have stuck us there forever if we hadn’t used the Random Teleportation Scroll.”
That was also one of the reasons why they had joined the camp of Princess Ell.
The opponents of the traitor duke could recruit them to join in the development if things went well with their knowledge that the obelisk was such a precious map. Or the opponents could silence them if they were truly unlucky.
The latter was more likely, judging from the situation at that time. The players did not dare to bet on Raging Blood Duke’s att.i.tude.
Richard nodded.
“Can you tell me the details of the obelisk?”
He must have had some ideas since he brought it up.
The warrior player looked at the others and nodded.
“We came here for this matter…”
He said hesitantly, “However, we have something to ask of Boss Qingqiu.”
Richard smiled.
“Speak.”
“Our guild took a colossal risk in entering Ell. I hope that Boss Qingqiu can give us some pointers on how to survive safely…”
Richard nodded. This condition was not out of line.
“I will arrange for you to guard a safe area. You can return to the meeting hall, and I will send you back should Lion City fail you.”
They breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Richard’s a.s.surance.
That was not a game. People would die in war.
Who could guarantee nothing would go wrong now that Lion City was at an absolute disadvantage?
The warrior player eased up and organized his thoughts. He said, “Boss Qingqiu, that obelisk is hidden in this dimensional plane. You can only see it if you step into that area from the front.
“Otherwise, we shouldn’t have discovered it even if we flew over it.
“A supremely mighty force guarded that obelisk, and there is a superhuman hero.
“We haven’t met that extraordinary hero before. We only received a notification from the attributes panel.
“The guards are half-dragons with dragon bloodline. They are supremely mighty and are all level 19.
“There’s at least a troop.”
“A single squadron could have destroyed us with only five thousand soldiers we had at that time.”
His tone sounded intensified as he said this.
“Such powerful guards, and the treasures hidden inside are also very tempting. There are at least three transcendent troop lairs.”
Richard’s heart skipped a beat.
“Three transcendent troop lairs?!!”
That was definitely an exaggerated amount of wealth.
One could describe the performance of the radiant moon king mummies on the battlefield as overbearing.
As for the transcendents, other than the non-combat troop, the evil spreader, the preacher, he was also a non-combat troop.
There was no one else.
That immediately piqued Richard’s interest.
Richard needed ten million lairs to advance to becoming a transcendent. That meant 20 million units of rare resources.
Twilight City could not support such a level of consumption with its current industry.
“Where is that location?”
The warrior player took a few steps forward.
“I’ll share it with you.”
Richard did not stand on ceremony. A moment later, a new location appeared on the system map, marked with a dark tower-shaped icon.
“Do you have any additional information?”
The warrior player spoke in a deep tone.
“We’ve also investigated this time. Raging Blood Duke has the support of a top-tier guild. Moreover, they set their eyes on the obelisk.”
Richard said lightly, “Top-tier guild?”
“That’s right. If you go to the forum, you should hear this name often. The Blazing Flame Guild.”
The warrior player sounded cautious.
“All members of this guild believe in the Sun G.o.d Sect and have a powerful group of priests and spellcasters.”
“Its official members are more than 5,000, and almost every member is a lord player with a strong faction.
“They also partic.i.p.ated in the last war between the players and the natives of the Orc Empire.
“The enemies we are about to face might not be as simple as Raging Blood Duke if they mobilize their allies again…”
The player’s tone sounded grave as he said this.
“Boss Qingqiu, this time, we’re going to have a head-on battle with this top-tier guild!”
