Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Revenge, Destroy Silverleaf City
Chapter 71: Revenge, Destroy Silverleaf City
John didn't hide anything and pointed to the nearby Vein of the Earth, saying, "Because of this."
The succubus realized and said, "That makes sense. The power of the Vein of the Earth is
similar to the Black Turtle's nature; that old thing couldn't resist it. I thought you were the prophesied savior."
She sighed with relief as she spoke.
"You know about that prophecy too?" John looked at the succubus, "Why, do you seem relieved that I'm not the savior?"
The succubus smiled seductively and said, "Don't misunderstand. I'm relieved for your sake. Imagine if you were the prophesied savior. Do you think the Dark Humans, or even the gods, would let you live?"
John nodded in agreement, realizing there was some truth to her words.
However, he had no interest in being a savior. Regardless of his identity, in this lifetime, he was determined to confront and defeat the gods directly.
The succubus took a deep breath, looking contented, and said, "Let's go back. With the Tree of Life and the vein of the Earth, no beast would refuse. You've truly lucked out."
John didn't respond and led her out of the Death Land.
As they reappeared, the blood-red demon wolf was the first to approach, looking at the succubus and asking, "Well? Was this kid telling the truth?"
The succubus smiled slightly and nodded, "Indeed, there's the Tree of Life and the Vein of the Earth. Moreover, the dark aura of the Death Land has completely disappeared, greatly aiding our recovery."
"Really?" The group of beasts was excited, their eyes fixed on John, clearly eager to enter the Death Land.
John, however, wasn't in a hurry to agree and said, "There's one more thing I need you to do: help me destroy Silverleaf City!"
Since Silverleaf City had openly dispatched troops, he needed to show them his strength, serving as a warning to the Dark Humans.
"Destroy Silverleaf City?" The blood-red demon wolf exclaimed, shocked by John's decision.
"Kid," the Blood-Eyed Demon Apes, now recovered from its injuries, also came forward, saying, "You know Silverleaf City is controlled by the Dark Humans, right? While the Dark Humans there aren't very strong, they are backed by powerful ninth-rank Dark Humans."
The beasts didn't dare provoke the Dark Humans.
Even at their peak, they were no match for the Dark Humans, let alone now.
John, however, remained unconcerned. "What's there to fear? You can all hide in the Death Land. If the Dark Humans want revenge, they can only come after me."
"Good point," said the Cloud Treading Beast, whose true form was a giant blue ox, also a peak sixth-rank being.
"I've had enough of those Dark Humans. It's time to deal with the ones in Silverleaf City." "I agree! This blood debt needs to be repaid, starting with interest."
With their concerns eased, the beasts quickly voiced their support.
The blood-red demon wolf, now eager, asked, "Kid, when do we move?"
"Right now. And don't spare any players there either," John said coldly.
The players of Silverleaf City, most of whom had attacked Flame City and then resurrected, deserved their fate.
John didn't care if some innocent players were caught in the crossfire.
"Let's go!" John commanded, mounting the black dragon Avis. He led a mighty army of beasts toward Silverleaf City.
He had already warned Armstrong and the others to leave Silverleaf City to avoid getting caught in the battle.
...
At Silverleaf City, a large crowd of players gathered around the resurrection point, their curses echoing in the air.
"Damn that Godslayer! I finally reached level 40, and now I'm back to level 30."
"This guy's existence breaks the balance. We need to get him banned from the world of
Gods!"
"Agreed!"
"I'm applying to join Mike White Family to fight Godslayer!"
"Forget it, buddy. I'm ranked 1174, and even I don't qualify to join."
"We can't let this slide. Who's with me to storm Flame City?"
A burly warrior player shouted in anger.
There was a moment of silence, and everyone looked at him like he was crazy.
They could talk big, but they weren't stupid.
If a powerful monster tide couldn't take down Flame City, they'd be walking to their deaths.
Suddenly, an announcement rang out.
[Announcement: Player Godslayer has declared war on Silverleaf City. All players can join the defense. Holding Silverleaf City will grant rich rewards.]
...
Three announcements echoed throughout the world of Gods.
The players around the resurrection point were stunned.
"He's insane! Godslayer has lost it, daring to attack a city in the world of Gods."
"This is our chance. Kill Godslayer and defend Silverleaf City!"
"Yeah, join the Silverleaf City defense. Godslayer doesn't stand a chance against the city's forces."
...
The players were excited, shouting as they rushed to the city walls.
Hiding among the crowd, Toby frowned.
He didn't believe Godslayer was reckless.
There had to be beasts involved; without them, players alone wouldn't stand a chance against Silverleaf City's guards.
"Sir, aren't we going to act?" Butcher, standing beside him, was eager, looking to Toby for
orders.
Among the players, he felt the most humiliated. He had worked hard to reach level 59, only to be killed by Godslayer and dropped back to level 30.
Half a month's effort wasted, and he dreamed of tearing Godslayer apart.
"No, retreat. Leave Silverleaf City immediately," Toby said gravely, rushing towards the
teleportation point.
He remembered the disastrous outcome of their last attempt to ambush Godslayer, where Dark Angel and others were killed and sent back to the beginner's village.
These players were likely doomed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, thunderous roars echoed as a terrifying aura engulfed the sky. The beast army
charged in, effortlessly destroying the city.
John led the beasts straight to the teleportation point.
He needed to destroy it immediately to prevent players from escaping and to block
reinforcements from other cities.
Dark Humans, like players, could also use the teleportation arrays.
Just moments ago, players were boldly proclaiming their support to defend the city for the
Dark Humans. Now, seeing the beast army approaching, terror filled their faces. They frantically rushed towards the teleportation point.
Facing these fearsome beasts, they had no will to resist and only wanted to escape as quickly
as possible.
"Hurry, break through!" Toby tried several times to get through the crowd but was pushed
back each time. Infuriated, he ordered his men to attack the players blocking their way.
Chaos erupted instantly. Players who had been united in defending the city now turned on each other, desperately trying to flee.
Shouts and screams filled the air as players died, reappearing at the resurrection point.
Toby and his men fought their way to the teleportation point.
Just as he was about to activate it, a massive shadow loomed overhead.
It was Avis, Godslayer's black dragon.
Then, Rain of Fire rained down, and dragon flames scattered, killing countless players.
"No..." Toby roared in frustration, engulfed by the flames. He was only 0.1 seconds away from escaping via the teleportation point.
The next second, he found himself at the resurrection point.
Boom! Boom!
Thunderstorm echoed as John destroyed the teleportation point, leaving surrounding players
in utter despair. They screamed in rage.
But soon turned into flashes of white light, reappearing at the resurrection point. John cleared the area and headed towards the resurrection point to continue his slaughter.
"Log out, quickly!" Toby, realizing the situation, abandoned all concerns for his losses and logged out of the world of Gods.
Other players followed suit, trying to log out.
But another wave of fire engulfed them, putting everyone into combat mode, preventing
them from logging out.
Flashes of white light signified player deaths, followed by immediate respawns and deaths
again.
The psychological torment of continuous deaths broke their spirits.
They were no match for John and couldn't escape, leaving them only with rage and curses.
"Devil! You're a demon from hell!"
"Godslayer, you're so brutal. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
...
"Retribution?" John sneered at the players' curses below him. "If you dared to attack Flame
City, you should have expected this result."
"Godslayer, I was wrong. Please, let me go!"
"Master, I can help you attack Silverleaf City. Please, just stop."
...
Some were on the brink of collapse, begging for mercy.
John ignored them, his spells continuing unabated.
The number of players at the respawn point dwindled as more were sent back to the
beginner's village by John's relentless onslaught.
His expression remained calm, showing no mercy. These players deserved their fate. Even if he didn't target them now, when the world of Gods merged and was invaded by monsters and Dark Humans, they would become traitors. "Kid!" Black Turtle approached John, speaking calmly, "We've killed all the Dark Humans
here. Do you want to occupy this city?"
"No need. Destroy the altar. I need a Level 2 Altar Upgrade Stone." John decisively refused.
Destroying the city held more value.
Flame City was a Level 1 city, and to upgrade, it needed a Level 2 Altar Upgrade Stone.
It could only be obtained by destroying a corresponding city.
"Alright," Black Turtle agreed, heading to the city square and destroying the altar.
Whoosh!
Instantly, the city's buildings collapsed and disappeared.
With the altar destroyed, Silverleaf City turned into ruins.
The respawn point vanished, and players who died now respawned in the nearest city.
John didn't continue to target them. Although those players didn't return to the beginner's
village, they had all dropped to Level 10, effectively the same as being sent back to the starting point.
With the altar destroyed, another announcement echoed. [Announcement: Dark Humans have issued a bounty on player Godslayer. Any player who kills
Godslayer will receive a piece of legendary equipment for their class. No limit on attempts or
participants.]
...
Three more announcements reverberated throughout the world of Gods.
The players were in an uproar, discussing the news.
In just half a day, there had been three system announcements, all related to Godslayer.
Godslayer had become the focal point of the world of Gods, with many players organizing to
hunt him down.
In the real world, at Mike White Family headquarters.
Toby listened to his subordinate's report with a dark expression. He didn't dare re-enter the
world of Gods, fearing that he would respawn in Silverleaf City where Godslayer might still be
waiting. Taking a deep breath, he turned to his subordinate and coldly ordered, "At any cost, find Godslayer's whereabouts in the real world. Also, keep a close watch on his movements. Inform me immediately if he leaves Silverleaf City."
"Yes, sir!" The subordinate responded respectfully before hurrying away.
