Chapter 177 The Order of Light

Nie Yan gave some instructions in the guild chat, telling Guo Huai to pay close attention to the situation in Doom Canyon. If there were any players who performed exceptionally well there, they should consider absorbing them into Nirvana Flame. Nirvana Flame itself needed to cultivate some experts who could deal with the undead empire and demonkin players.

On the battlefield, no class could compare to thieves in terms of wilderness survival. Nie Yan sent about three thousand thieves to Doom Canyon. It was definitely a good place to hone their skills. In addition to these thieves, other players who wanted to go there voluntarily could do so.

The news of Doom Canyon's opening quickly spread. A large number of players from the underworld came to the surface through the underground passages of Doom Canyon. Players from the Greenland Empire and the Saturn Empire also flocked to Doom Canyon. Not only Nirvana Flame, but also the major guilds sent people there.

Since it was just beginning, the highlands in Doom Canyon and the small towns scattered inside the canyon were the main targets of competition for the major guilds. The battle situation there was extremely fierce.

Nie Yan checked the situation in Okoron City. The city defenses of Okoron City had been built very well. What excited him was that his NPC legion had expanded to 10,000 people. Although they were somewhat uneven in quality, there were still many powerful high-level NPCs. With them in charge of defending the city, it was foolproof.

In addition to Okoron City, Nie Yan also built dozens of fortresses nearby. With the arrival of a large number of players, the ability of the Abernathy Grasslands to resist the undead empire and demonkin was gradually increasing.

Looking at the time, there were still tens of minutes before he had to log off. Nie Yan packed up his things, handed the equipment he had acquired to the Nirvana Flame representative stationed in the Orc King City, cleared his backpack, and added consumables. He was preparing to do the Paternoster War Hammer quest when he suddenly received a message.

System: Player Feng Ming has obtained the second chapter of the fourth volume of the Order of Light, the Chapter of the Elements, located at (Ice Elemental Shrine 385.382.582). The coordinates will be broadcast once per hour.

Seeing this system message, Nie Yan's heart skipped a beat. Someone else had gotten ahold of the Order of Light. The name Feng Ming made him slightly surprised.

It was him!

The name Feng Ming was like thunder in his ears. He was the well-deserved number one mage in the Saturn Empire in his previous life. He was hunted down by Angel Faction and eventually disappeared. That unruly guy was the idol of countless elven mages. In this life, that guy's class advancement was even earlier than Angellion's.

Feng Ming had no background. He was just a casual player who never grouped up with anyone and always soloed. He was self-sufficient in equipment. To be able to reach this level, it could only be said that this guy's talent was extraordinary.

Nie Yan had wanted to meet Feng Ming for a long time, but Feng Ming was always elusive. Nirvana Flame's intelligence department in the Saturn Empire had never received any news about him.

Nie Yan estimated that players like Feng Ming were currently leveling up in very high-level maps. They rarely returned to the city and rarely showed their faces. He didn't expect that what he had been searching for high and low, he had found without even trying. This guy had actually delivered himself to his door.

It seemed that Feng Ming had obtained that Order of Light in the Ice Elemental Shrine. Regarding the Ice Elemental Shrine, Nie Yan only knew a rough idea. It was a sanctuary for ice mages, recording many ancient spells. Legend had it that after studying in the Elemental Shrine, even the worst ice mage could become a first-class expert. Of course, you had to pass some tests to be eligible to enter the Ice Elemental Shrine. As for the exact location of the Ice Elemental Shrine, even the players who had been inside didn't know.

Feng Ming should have seen Nie Yan holding the Order of Light at this time. They would meet sooner or later.

Nie Yan smiled faintly. He was finally going to meet the number one expert in the Saturn Empire. He couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Looking at the time, there were only three minutes left before he had to log off. Nie Yan disconnected from the game and walked out of the game pod.

After staying in Huahai for a while, it was time to go back. The Radiant Company had already gotten on the right track. The entire group was operating at high speed, with so much business that they couldn't handle it all. It was a busy scene. Many consortia and forces had opened the door to convenience for the Radiant Company, allowing the Radiant Company to expand rapidly. The entire group could be described as making money every day. The profit scale even exceeded the Zheng Rong Consortium, the Long Yue Consortium, and other old consortia, becoming the most profitable company.

In addition to managing his own business, Nie's father secretly acquired 5% of the Century Consortium's shares, 6% of the Long Yue Consortium's shares, and 3% of the Zheng Rong Consortium's shares. He also invested in other consortia. Nie Yan seemed to see that the Radiant Company was slowly prying open the entire market.

The rapid development of the Radiant Company made Nie Yan couldn't help but feel proud. His father was still quite skilled. In his previous life, if it hadn't been for the betrayal of Luo Ming and those so-called relatives, he wouldn't have been defeated so miserably, and his father wouldn't have been so disheartened.

In this life, everything had been reversed by him.

Nie Yan drove his Soron and returned to the villa with Xie Yao. The two of them put down what they had brought, and Xie Yao began to tidy up and clean the room. Looking at Xie Yao's busy figure, Nie Yan couldn't help but feel a little warm and touched.

Nie Yan still had a very important thing to do. He told Xie Yao and left home, heading straight for another villa nearby.

He naturally wouldn't forget Mo Yuntian's instructions. He didn't know how Cidao had trained those guys. If he failed Mo Yuntian's trust, the consequences would be very serious. Therefore, as soon as he arrived here, he was anxious to come and see.

Cidao had bought a villa here. Anyway, Mo Yuntian was paying for it. He had made some modifications to the interior and used it as a special training ground for Wang Duo and others.

At Nie Yan's instruction, Cidao had been strictly training Wang Duo and others non-stop.

He entered the villa through the main gate and pushed open the door of the training ground. What he saw with his eyes made him stunned.

This training ground was about two or three hundred square meters in size. It was all covered with wooden floors. It was very open, and there were windows all around, so the light was very good. There were many training equipment inside.

Nie Yan glanced at it and saw that only Cidao was standing in the entire training ground. Everyone else was lying on the ground like dead dogs. They were wearing loose trousers and bare chests. Clear muscles could be seen, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed out of them and slid to the ground.

Wang Duo was lying on his back not far from Cidao's feet, his chest rising and falling non-stop. He tried to struggle to get up several times, but eventually fell back down weakly.

"With just this amount of exercise, you're already tired like this. You're still calling yourselves special forces people. Any cripple I pull out of my brothers is stronger than you. Don't lie there like dead dogs. Get up, you bunch of cowards..." Cidao's voice was cold and devoid of emotion.

Cidao's sarcastic words were very harsh. It was estimated that anyone would be unable to help but get angry.

However, Wang Duo and others didn't even have the strength to get angry.

Ah, Wang Duo let out a low roar and staggered to his feet little by little.

The others also used their last strength to slowly climb up.

Nie Yan didn't know what method Cidao used to exhaust Wang Duo and others' physical strength to the limit, but judging from this, the training results during this period should be very good.

Nie Yan walked straight towards Cidao, looked at Wang Duo and others, and asked beside Cidao, "How's the training going?"

"A bunch of trash. With such garbage, I wouldn't bother to train them if you didn't pay me." Cidao said with some disdain. He didn't shy away from Wang Duo and others when he spoke.

Wang Duo and others glared at Cidao, like ferocious beasts, ready to fight Cidao at any time.

Cidao's words were insulting their personality and dignity!

"Captain." Several teammates looked at Wang Duo. If it wasn't for Wang Duo holding them back, they would have rushed up to fight Cidao to the death.

"Continue training!" Wang Duo said in a cold voice. He had experienced Cidao's power. He couldn't even make ten moves during the fight. Although he was angry, he knew that they could only continue to train hard at this time to have a chance to defeat Cidao.

Wang Duo continued to do squats, one, two, each one extremely difficult.

Although they noticed Nie Yan's arrival, they had strict rules during training. No matter who came, the training could not be interrupted.

The training method used by Cidao was the oldest method, which was the limit training method, which allowed a person's physical strength to be exhausted to the limit and continued to train non-stop to increase the strength of the body. Although this method was old, it was very effective.

Nie Yan had no objection to Cidao's method and asked, "How much have they improved during this period?"

"The training has just begun. How could there be any improvement? I don't know how their instructors trained them. They can't handle this little amount of exercise. When I was training, it was at least dozens of times more than them." Cidao said calmly, seeming a little sentimental when he talked about the past.

The strength of Wang Duo and others was actually very outstanding. He didn't know where this Cidao guy came from. Although Nie Yan was a little curious about what Cidao used to do in the past, he didn't ask. Cidao was a person with secrets. If he wanted to gain Cidao's trust, he had to respect Cidao's privacy. When Cidao wanted to say it one day, he would naturally say it.

Seeing that Wang Duo and others were very struggling, but gritted their teeth and persevered, Nie Yan felt that he was superfluous here. Cidao should be able to complete the training well. He only needed to teach Wang Duo and others the skills of top-tier classes in the game.

"I'll give you thirty minutes to rest, replenish food and water. After thirty minutes, I'll give you a chance to challenge me. If you have any complaints, then come up and defeat me." Cidao's sharp eyes swept over Wang Duo, Lin Yi, and others.
