"What"s happening?" One of the onlookers in the North Side of the City asked as a caravan of Human NPCs flooded the ruins of Alistor . Wooden wagons loaded with construction materials that were guarded by Level 100 Human Knights, Cavaliers, Archers, Mages, and Architects buzzed through the city .

"I don"t know, I"ve never ventured in the deeper territories, but they seemed to come from the capital city of Honkai," another player replied as he stared on the northern horizon .

"Hmmm . Interesting, I"ve never thought that War Grounds would have this depth in its content . Let"s start grinding so we could experience more of the game"s offer!"

Meanwhile, on the Southern Side of Alistor, another caravan of around fifty Demon Race players were also marching . Leading the group was a bulky figure covered in a brown cloak . Twelve purple candles that were lit with a seemingly undying blue flame floated behind him in a clock formation .

"Vice-Guild Leader Borascca, the city is filled with numerous Human NPCs . Should we proceed?" A figure in brown cloak appeared out of stealth . He seemed to be a scout that had gone ahead of the group .

"Don"t worry . We have the management rights of the city . Keep going, and prepare the scrolls to set up the Shrine Portal . We"ve wasted a lot of time already by just traveling . The game developers should release a mount feature for this vast world . " The Demon Player named Borascca grumbled .

"Woah, run! Quick, run! The members of the Six Purgatories have arrived . They"ll slaughter us!" One of the low-level onlookers exclaimed as he saw the fifty figures nearing the city"s broken south gate .

The pathway immediately cleared, although some curious players stayed at a distance to get a view of what would happen . "Do you think the NPCs will attack them? I"ve heard that if you visit hostile territories, you"ll be hunted by the NPCs . "

Borascca and the players that followed him suddenly stopped on the entrance of the Southern Gate as a pair of knights gilded in white breastplates halted them .

Before the two NPCs could speak out a word, they were quickly melted into a pile of silver mud by the figure named Borascca . A wand made of grey wax and seemed to be in the shape of a candle as a black flame flickered on its end could be seen in the purple right hand of the leader of the caravan .

"Keep moving, and don"t hesitate to kill any NPCs that get in the way . Don"t waste time, and don"t forget to collect their life essences . " Borascca coldly instructed .

The remaining members immediately took off their brown cloaks and infiltrated the yellow barrier only to be repelled back by an invisible force .

"We can"t enter, Vice Guild Leader . " One of the members exclaimed .

"I can see that fool," Borascca chided . "These NPCs are a pain the a.s.s . Let"s wait for their boss to show up . Make sure to summon the guild banner . "

Yellow bolts suddenly flew out from the city and rained on Borascca"s troops .

"b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, they"re attacking us!" One of the troop members angrily shouted as he blocked the attacks with a ma.s.sive bone s.h.i.+eld that seemed to be made from the ribs of an enormous monster .

"Isn"t that to be expected? We killed their members . " A demoness with short purple hair and a pair of black bat wings giggled . She was wielding a cannon made from obsidian material .

"Intruders! How dare you disturb the reconstruction of the city . Men kill them!" A tiny elderly wizard riding a c.u.mulonimbus orange cloud could be seen flying inside the city . He was quickly heading towards the edge of the yellow barrier in Alistor"s South Gate . Knights, Cavaliers, Archers, and Mages followed behind him as he continued to release yellow bolts from his golden staff .

"We"re the ruling guild of this city . Grant us an entrance now or be annihilated . " Borascca coldly claimed as a purple banner with the logo of a cloaked skull holding an almost snuffed out white candle fluttered before him .

"Demons, like you don"t belong to this place! Citizens of Honkai, eliminate these fools and make sure that the reconstruction of Alistor will not be disturbed . " The Level 200 elderly NPC wizard named Ozcar commanded .

"These NPCs surely know how to make a drama . Folks, there"s no diplomacy today . Prepare for battle, this is a mana hungry spell, but we have no choice . " Borascca grinned as he took off the head-cover of his brown cloak, revealing a pair of golden thick ram horns, covering the side of his purple demon face .

The grey-wax wand in his hand whirled as the twelve purple candles floating behind him spun in a counter-clockwise . "Dissonating Limbo!" Twelve crimson arrays suddenly shot out of Borascca"s figure as if they were disks and penetrated the yellow barrier, which immediately shattered upon impact . "Tsss . What a weak barrier spell . Troops, show these NPCs that we own this place . Slaughter them!"

. . .

"So, what"s your choice, Nisha?" Solomon repeated the question as Osho"s brother remained silent for a minute already . "Destraya or Underground Arena?"

"Hey, I thought that Al has a solution too?" Sophia suddenly joined the conversation with a giggle .

Al has been preparing for this moment . While the others were busy listening to the conversation, he was chatting with SARS through his phone . There was a third option!

"Al?" Solomon was surprised . Mutations are high-level topics and should not be typical for rookies .

"Yeah . Haha . I happened to read about that from a random thread . " Al gave out a half-truth .

"Really? Being a wide reader really helps . So, do you have an alternative?" Sol seemed to buy Al"s alibi . "What"s the third option?"

"From what I could remember, you can complete a mutation by extracting the life essence of another player with the same debuff of incomplete mutation," Al responded .

"Oh . Dark Arts . Interesting, I never thought that you read about such topics, Al . " Solomon"s eyes hid a trace of suspicion . "I never thought that it"s possible . However, extracting the life essence of a player is easier said than done . It technically means deleting his account . Are you aware of that?"

Nisha and Al immediately looked at each other, they both know one player that has an incomplete mutation - RockSalt .
