Major Event

Sorry guys, but in this game, luck plays a role. After all, the opportunity will be fought to death soon.

That is true. Soon enough, players will be divided and start to PK.

And this will only escalate greatly when the exchange system takes effect. But when stronger players start appearing soon, mostly from the core groups and government communities, the issue of PK will die down eventually. After all, those groups and communities will control most of the places, giving all the players a peaceful environment for the time being.

And when these core group and community finish gathering their strength, they will start what everyone is hyped about, the Guild War!

Guild War has many benefits and repercussions depending on the outcome. There are many benefits it can give to any guild and at the same time lose assets or real money just to purchase rations and supplies to sustain the guild during the war.

But the best benefit is to claim the land of the losing guild. Claiming or occupying one's land or Guild Domain is proved to be difficult.

Within the Guild Domain, the enemy has access to more buffs giving them a frightening advantage in terms of healing, and an increase in strength which includes attack damage and defense. Making one player increase stats two folds. It also gives them an advantage in logistics and quicker dispatching of guild members.

But if the conquering guild is skilled, outnumbering the enemy, and powerful enough amidst this buff, it is only a matter of time before the Guild Domain will fall.

But of course, before core groups or government communities build their own Guild Domain, one should have a Guild Residence first. From then, they can start to achieve one of many objectives in playing this game. To raise or own a country!

From Guild Residence to Guild Domain, they can start widening their guild domain until it becomes a Village turn into Town, City, State, and Country!

Sally return to reality when he heard another small and continuous explosion inside the Town Hall.

"It seems, the chaos will not be resolved immediately."

The calm servants and officials that were escorted outside the Town Hall but are still within the vicinity get nervous again.

"Everyone calm down, the knights inside the Town Hall are trying to resolve the chaos, and a series of small explosions is expected. Be at ease as we will protect you."

Sally confidently told everyone as they almost huddled together.

Angel and another Healer from Sally's group on the other hand are continuously healing the officials and servants. She's doubling the effort that she was supposed and normally does in healing since the healing skills of players or heroes are not compatible with NPCs and only half of the healing will take effect.

The servant and officials that were wounded already know this which is why they didn't make it hard for Angel to heal them. They know the heroes needed allotted time to perform the healing skill again. In particular, they feel gratitude towards them.

More importantly, when the explosion occurred, these heroes goes to save and heal them.

As of now, all the healer is inside the Town Hall and trying to attend to the wounded knight and some are on standby in case the Count needed their healing skills.

That is why they felt bitter towards the people who have a higher rank status in society. But there's nothing they can do about it.

The small explosions continue and get louder and louder. They can also hear an agonizing scream of a human being. Probably that caught on the explosions.

Everyone outside gets nervous. Even the Knights that were stationed outside to secure the perimeter and don't let anyone enter the vicinity cannot help but stare at the Town Hall that is getting destroyed as every moment passed.

Outside the perimeter, more and more players arrived and discuss what was happening. Some players, using their system, started to take a video of what was happening and posted it on the official forums that took the first slot with the highest views, comments, and reactions in just a minute. Replacing the party quest posted by Angel yesterday.

"Where is that?! That Town Hall sure is going to be destroyed!"

"Hey! Is that the Town Hall of West Town? What is happening there? Anyone?"

"I do not want to impose but I think it is a major event."

"A major event?! You gotta be kidding me! It's only been 24 hours since the official launch and a major event is currently happening. Where is that? I want to go there!"

"Are you blind? Scroll up!"

"How envious. Although West Town is unpopular compared to the Amethyst City and the Capital of the Edo Kingdom, they are surely blessed."

"After the chaos ceased, for sure many quests will be triggered and players in West Town will get a hold of many advantages compared to us. " ="(

"How much is the Teleportation Scroll again?"

"Brat don't even dare. There are thousands of players currently staying in West Town. There's no guarantee you will trigger the quest."

Many players give their opinions and comments.

Meanwhile, in the forest, just 1 more mile away from West Town.

The Heaven Sky core group is currently resting in the shades of trees. They just defeated a pack of goblins and kobolds.

Fortunately, the highest level in the enemy is only 2 so they finish killing them without a hitch.

The whole Sky Heaven went on their journey for 36 hours straight inside the game which is equivalent to 12 hours in the real world. The 2 hours in 36 hours is used for rest.

The Sky Heaven core group members' headcount is 300 which includes Sally and the four skilled players that teleported in the West Town using the Teleportation Scroll.

And now Lina decided to rest again after the battle with a pack of Goblins and Kobolds.

She glances around and observed the member of Sky Heaven. This expedition from Amethyst City to West Town proved to be difficult, full of uncertainty, and beneficial as well. While they are traveling, they fought monsters with low levels. It gives them experience and coins, and if they got lucky, these monsters drop a piece of basic equipment or item. But the most dropped item is their weapon or the maces only. Still, it is somewhat rewarding.

As she glances around, she can see the fatigue on the majority of the members, even she herself felt the numbing pain in her feet and the fatigue that slowly accumulated within her body. They are supposed to take 3 to 4 days but she rushed her members because she wants to help sally as soon as possible. She calculated that before dusk settles, they will arrive in West Town.

Many tried to complain but her decision is final. Which leads them to the current situation. She then pops up her Menu Interface. She furrowed her head when she saw what was taken first placed on the forum.

[Announcement: Major Event]

That is what was written as the subject with 200 thousand comments and five million reactions. No wonder it stole the first place of the party quest from yesterday.

She then proceed to tick and read the simplified story.

In an instant, her eyes wide open and her pupils dilated!

She unintentionally shouted "Major event in West Town?!" which startled the nearby member of the Sky Heaven.

The startled members turn their gazes to their Guild Leader with confusion and worry.

They know their Guild Leader very well. She is always composed and confident. They never did see, even once saw their Guild Leader was shocked beyond compare.

Then one of the members also shouted "It is true! There's a major event happening right now in West Town!"

Then all the members quickly open the forum and were shocked beyond relief!

"How is this possible? Of all the places in the Edo Kingdom, the first major event is in West Town?!"

"It seems that our decision to switch the place of our base of operation is a wise choice!"

"That's right! Our Guild Leader and our angel Sally are both geniuses. Without them, we might have missed the opportunity to partake in this major event!"

In an instant, the down and fatigued atmosphere surrounding them was replaced and turned into a lively atmosphere. But Lina is too occupied to share the sentiments. Because as she scrolled down on the comment section, she saw a lot of video clips of what was happening in West Town.

Apparently, there were multiple explosions that occurred exactly on the Town Hall, and half of it was utterly destroyed.

There are lots of video clips. The knights clearly set the perimeter to block the citizen and players from approaching the scene.

Inside the gate, servants and officials of Town Hall are grouped near the gate and some of the NPCs are sparse due to panic.

She also noticed there were players inside the perimeter. There is one player that continuously heals the NPCs. Lina shook her head softly, she knew and everyone knew the player's heal skill is not compatible with the NPCs and only half of the effect will benefit these NPCs. But even knowing that, the healer continues to use her skill to wounded NPCs. It is only a matter of time before she runs out of MP.

She can also see one more Healer just beside the other but only her back is visible in the video clip.

But what caught her attention the most which give her another shock in her heart is the three players guarding the healer. One of them is obviously the guardian due to his build and the shield he carries. But the two other players are quite familiar to her.

She furrowed her brows and focus her eyes on the two other players. After her vision focus on the two players and clearly saw their build and faces, she suddenly gasp!

"Don't tell me… it is them, right?" She softly muttered to herself

She tries to rub her eyes and try to look at the two players again. This time, without a doubt she was confident she knew them. How could she not? They are two of the four players she orders to help her bestfriend, Sally in West Town to do the Party Quest!

Many questions start to pop up one by one in her head but there is one thing that elated her. Her members once again were caught in the middle of events, not just any normal events, but a major event at that!

First, it is Sally who received the party quest from Payne Blanc. Now her two members are there participating to ease the chaos and calm the NPCs inside the perimeter!

As she scrolls down and looks for more video clips, her heart is pounding fast and hard.

And then she found what she was looking for.

A video of a gorgeous lady with a slender body that is gracefully running around with a fierce look plastered on her beautiful face adds more charisma to her beauty.

There's a quiver hanging on her waist and a bow that was placed on her back.

It was her bestfriend, Sally!

Sally is running around calming and guiding the NPCs to a particular group. If the NPCs are wounded, she would lead them to the healer's group but if the NPCs are unscratched and have no visible wounds, she would lead them near the gate where there are knights on standby.

And that's the only time it dawns on her.

Her bestfriend is lucky, she is lucky and her Sky Heaven core group is lucky!

She is certain that once the chaos ceased, Sally will receive a reward, and other players helping to calm the NPCs.

And what's more. If it is proven to be a major event, the closes players near the Town Hall will instantly trigger the quest! And sally and the four members of the Sky Heaven group will surely get the quests!

She didn't know how and why Sally and the four members is in the Town Hall in the first place, but her guts told her that it is related to Payne Blanc. A possible Legendary Elite NPC!

As she thinks of the possibility, she cannot help but beam a smile. But at the same time, she felt a little bitter. If Sky Heaven only has funds to buy Teleportation Scroll for all the members to use, then there's a chance they too can participate in the major event!

But the point is, Sally and others were able to. So the rewards they will receive can give Sky Heaven an advantage over other core groups and it also can boost the morale of the members.

Lina can only smile as she dreams of her guild standing among the top of the core groups.
