Chapter 119 Intense Fighting

Nie Yan received news that Angel Corps was harassing Angel Triumph with increasing frequency. They even engaged in a massive battle involving tens of thousands of players. The two sides fought to the death. Niu Ren Tribe occasionally intervened, sending tens of thousands of troops to clash with Angel Triumph and Century Financial Group.

Players from the Green Flame Empire and the Satrin Empire sensed something unusual. Niu Ren Tribe was likely going to make a move against Angel Triumph and Century Financial Group. If the two sides went to war, it would be an unprecedented battle. Both sides were overlords of their respective empires, with a large number of members and numerous branch guilds. Millions of players would be directly involved in the war, ultimately affecting the interests of the Green Flame Empire and the Satrin Empire. No one could remain neutral.

The constant and intense friction was escalating the conflict between the two sides, filling the two great empires with a heavy smell of gunpowder.

To the players' puzzlement, although several battles had taken place within the Satrin Empire, Angel Triumph had not launched a strong counterattack, maintaining a defensive posture. The high-level players of Angel Triumph rarely showed their faces, and had not appeared for over a month. Even the players within Angel Triumph did not know the whereabouts of Angellion and the others.

Angel Corps was slowly advancing from a few small towns as bases, rapidly expanding the war. They had already begun operating on the edge of the fortresses and were planning to attack!

Angel Corps and Angel Triumph were like mortal enemies. Even the names of the two guilds were filled with gunpowder. There were irreconcilable contradictions between them. With Angel Corps as a powerful ally, Niu Ren Tribe had fewer worries.

Nie Yan had just received news that seven top-tier classes from Angel Corps were preparing to reach the surface through the underground passage. The top-tier classes of the Undead Empire had a common name: Warlock. The top-tier classes of the Undead Empire were as valuable as those of the Green Flame Empire and the Satrin Empire, much stronger than the Silverwings of the Demonkin Tribe. The entire Undead Empire only had thirteen top-tier classes in total, and Angel Corps had seven, which was quite remarkable.

Their seven top-tier classes coming to the surface would probably give Angel Triumph a headache.

While Nie Yan was issuing various instructions to the players of Niu Ren Tribe, ordering them to go to the Satrin Empire to harass Angel Triumph, he also told the promising players in the guild to level up and run dungeons to improve their levels and equipment. The war between Niu Ren Tribe and Angel Triumph would be a long-term battle. The one who persisted to the end would be the victor, so level and equipment advantages were very important. They had to continue to expand their advantage and gradually erode Angel Triumph.

Angel Triumph had been maintaining a defensive posture, and Nie Yan did not want to launch a large-scale war for the time being. After all, the Satrin Empire was the territory of Angel Triumph and Century Financial Group. They had been operating there for so long and were not easy to shake. There was a saying that a mighty dragon could not suppress a local snake. If he really wanted to enter the Satrin Empire, Nie Yan had to consider the consequences of defeat.

Niu Ren Tribe and its branch guilds had about 300,000 players active in the Satrin Empire. Moreover, the Angelic Song guild over there was also steadily developing under the leadership of Sanjie Buliu, allowing them to slowly disintegrate the strength of Angel Triumph in the Satrin Empire.

Apart from these things, nothing major happened in the Satrin Empire and the Green Flame Empire. More than a month passed in a flash.

On the rock face of the Goring Mountains, a figure swept past the protruding rocks. The steep mountain wall was like flat ground to him.

This person was Nie Yan. He had been searching the Goring Mountains for a full week. The jeweler Ophini in Flame City told Nie Yan that he had encountered a group of robbers in the Goring Mountains while transporting goods. All the goods were robbed, including the Abak Focus Legguards. Then the clues ended there. Nie Yan had no choice but to go to the Goring Mountains to find the Focus Legguards. He had stayed in this mountainous area for nearly a month, leveling up and searching for the Focus Legguards, but he had no news of them. However, his level had risen to about 86%, and he would be leveling up soon.

The Goring Mountains were full of level 180 creatures, and there were many elites and lords. From time to time, huge flying creatures flew across the sky. It could be described as extremely dangerous. Nie Yan could not mobilize a large number of Niu Ren Tribe players to help him search, but he did mobilize more than a hundred thieves, and a reconnaissance network slowly spread out.

At least it wasn't without clues, because jeweler Ophini had told him that the ones who robbed him were a group of robbers!

As the situation in the Green Flame Empire stabilized, the activity area of Brilliant Knife Edge and others became wider and wider. They began to clear some famous Bosses on the map, ranging from level 150 to level 180. Many were even mutated, demonized lords. Because Brilliant Knife Edge had the Demon Dirakur's Shield, his defense was very high, so they didn't face much pressure when facing those Bosses. As they killed more and more lords, they obtained a large number of good equipment, and the equipment level of the entire team improved several levels.

"Have you found the Focus Legguards yet? If you haven't found them, why don't we go farm the Lava Giants?" Brilliant Knife Edge sent a message to Nie Yan. Nie Yan wanted to collect the Focus Legguards before going to farm the Lava Giants, but it had been almost a month and the Focus Legguards were still nowhere to be found. The team members couldn't wait any longer. If it hadn't been for a few accidents, they would have teamed up to kill the Lava Giants long ago, and wouldn't have dragged it out until now.

"Okay, let's collect the Abak Focus Legguards another time." Nie Yan sighed. There had been no news for so long, so he could only wait for the future. Maybe he would receive some new clues in a while.

"Okay, I'll let them prepare," Brilliant Knife Edge said and went to make arrangements.

Just as Nie Yan was about to give up, a thief from the thief group sent a message to Nie Yan. He had discovered a temple occupied by robbers on the summit of a mountain called Moradus in the northern part of the Goring Mountains.

After receiving this news, Nie Yan's heart skipped a beat. There was hope! Because jeweler Ophini had told him that the ones who robbed the Focus Legguards were a group of robbers!

Nie Yan quickly sent a message to Brilliant Knife Edge, telling them to wait a little longer. He would go to the temple first!

Nie Yan activated Gale Step and quickly flew, sweeping across the rugged mountain road.

The speed of traveling on the mountain road was only one-fifth of the usual speed. After Nie Yan ran wildly for about fifteen or sixteen minutes, he finally entered the northern area of the Goring Mountains. This mountain range crossed the southern and eastern areas of the Green Flame Empire, and its range was really a bit large.

Entering the vicinity of Mount Moradus, Nie Yan met with the team members below, who were a dozen thief players from the thief group.

"Leader Nie Yan, you've arrived," the team members were very excited.

"Have you explored the temple?" Nie Yan asked.

The thieves looked at each other. One of the thieves said with some shame, "Leader Nie Yan, we are useless. Sixteen people entered the temple, and none of them came out alive. They were resurrected in the nearby cemetery."

"Oh?" Nie Yan was a little surprised. He knew the skills of this group of team members. Their combat power was very good. Under normal circumstances, even if they encountered danger, a thief with so many escape skills should be able to run out. It was unlikely that none of the sixteen people who entered would come out. "What's the situation inside?"

"We were only in the outer hall. The creatures that spawned were all level 180 mutated lords. These robbers were of all races, humans, elves, orcs, and even giants, there were hundreds of them. As for the inside, we haven't been in there," one of the thieves replied.

They were all level 180 mutated lords. No wonder. The outer hall was already this level of lords. What was inside the inner hall was even more unclear.

"What kind of temple is this?" Nie Yan asked.

Several thieves shook their heads and said, "That temple is an abandoned ruin. We didn't receive a system prompt when we entered."

Nie Yan asked a few more questions. They hadn't gone deep into the temple, so they couldn't tell him much. It seemed like he couldn't get any information out of them. He could only go in and see for himself.

"You guys go back. Everyone who entered the temple today will get 10,000 contribution points," Nie Yan waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, Leader Nie Yan," the thieves said one after another. Ten thousand contribution points was enough for them to exchange for a good set of equipment.

Just then, one of the thieves looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Say what you want to say," Nie Yan said to the thief.

"When I was in the outer hall, I saw a library through the window. There was a symbol like this on the pillars of the library." The thief spread out his hand and drew a strange symbol on his right hand. There were a few strokes in the circle, outlining a tree. "I just checked the information and found that this is the symbol of the Goddess of Life, so I guess that this temple may be the Temple of the Goddess of Life. It is said that the Goddess of Life died in battle and her divinity was shattered. This temple should have been abandoned after the Goddess of Life died."

He looked at Nie Yan and saw that Nie Yan was thinking, so he didn't dare to interrupt.

"Do you have any other discoveries?" Nie Yan asked.

"I didn't find anything else, but I was just wandering around the library and saw a sentence in a book, 'Owning a complete divinity allows one to comprehend the power of the gods, which is the threshold to the Legendary Realm.' I don't know if it has anything to do with this temple?" The thief looked a little timid. In front of a legendary figure like Nie Yan, he felt great pressure.

Nie Yan's heart was shaken. The threshold to the Legendary Realm, what did this mean? He thought of the three divinity fragments in his bag. Could these divinity fragments be combined into a complete divinity?
