Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038: Heartache So Intense It Takes Your Breath Away Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038: Heartache So Intense It Takes Your Breath Away “We’ve scouted the walls, aside from a few NPCs guarding the city, there are no signs of Prosperous Era players.” The assassin squad sent back their scouting report intermittently.

Actually, this is quite understandable given that it’s currently the guild’s pioneering phase, with almost everyone concentrated in the dungeons. Moreover, even during normal times, players wouldn’t have the patience to boringly guard the city on the walls.

“It’s not possible to conduct a detailed reconnaissance inside the base, but there aren’t many people on the streets, mostly lower-level players and Prosperous Era’s lifestyle profession players.”

This point was also quite understandable. Under the current circumstances, except for routes essential for leveling up like Starfire, guild bases were generally quite desolate.

“The assassin squad has finished scouting, and sentries are in place. You can safely start teleporting.”

Li Yao was in such a hurry this time that he didn’t even send someone to scout the hillside. Although everyone was in the dungeons, it was possible someone was coincidentally on that very hillside.

Fortunately, Starfire was lucky this time, and there was no one there.

“Begin. The first ten-thousand-man team leads with the transport of the Hundred Hunters Crossbows to the gate, then set up their positions.”

The first ten-thousand-man team, carrying the Hundred Hunters Crossbows, quickly entered the massive Light Gate and swiftly set up positions for the crossbows on the hillside.

Meanwhile, the NPCs in the distance were mainly guarding the main gate and the port. At this stage, no one would expect someone to be able to strike them from such a distance or fly in.

Starfire mobilized thirty thousand troops this time, apart from the unchanged first ten-thousand-man team, the two ten-thousand-man teams that participated in the Pirate Battle were left behind, and the Starfire players who were originally stationing the two bases were given the opportunity to join the battle.

They had been envying the recent awards ceremony so much, they thought they would have to wait a long time for an opportunity, but now that they had the chance to join the fray, they were naturally exhilarated.

Starfire’s speed was too fast, and in the ignorance of Prosperous Era, they had already amassed an army of thirty thousand.

Li Yao also entered the Light Gate, and then the Light Gate completely disappeared.

“Wait for Sister Li to apply,” Li Yao whispered from the shadows alongside Starfire’s assassin and rogue squads, gazing at the still clueless Prosperous Age Base in the distance: “Those who stay behind shouldn’t let their guard down; after all, we have many people at our port. Once the battle starts, we can attack their base, and naturally, they can also attack ours.”

Under the current situation, no matter which faction you’re waging war against, an application is needed, and it’s usually granted.

Without the Gate of War, unless you’re on the same map, otherwise, a notification post-application gives the prepared side advance warning.

If a long march is needed due to the distance, in the ancient gods’ era, it’s not limited to siege wars.

Whichever side initiates the guild war, both sides can dispatch armies to seize each other’s cities and bases.

Even wild battles and ambushes are possible; there’s a vast space for free maneuvering. It all depends on the strategies and operations of both sides.

However, if the side applying for an attack deploys an army larger than five hundred an hour before the application process, they will be forced to teleport back to their base.

On the other hand, Starfire’s application process started, and by using the Gate of War to directly reach the enemy’s base, this is where the real perversion of the Gate of War lies; there’s no need to depart the base before the time limit and still arrive promptly at the enemy’s vital territory, one could say this equipment is like a Divine Artifact in war mode.

“The seal is about to be stamped, how are you all prepared?” Sister Li asked.

Li Yao said, “All preparations are complete. There was actually no need for such a tight schedule; regardless, with the Gate of War at their disposal, they won’t be able to react in time. Most of their members are either in dungeons or guarding dungeon entrances to level up and block us. Looks like they need to move to a new base again.”

Just then, a system notification appeared, leaving everyone stunned with the news of the guild war between Starfire and Shengshi Guild.

“The guild war has started, attack,” commanded Unparalleled Beauty, and hundreds of large catapults launched Starfire players into the sky.

“Primary target for the gliding squad, bomb the barracks; secondary target, the arsenal.”

Meanwhile, as the Starfire players ascended and deployed their gliders, the NPCs on the city walls also noticed the enemies in the sky.

Then, a piercing alarm bell sounded throughout the castle, followed by the thunderous closing of the city gates.

Of course, Starfire also went into full war mode, preventing all non-Starfire vessels from entering their harbors at both bases and forcibly teleporting Shengshi players out of the Spark Station.

Everyone was shocked, and all the players of the ancient gods were dumbfounded by the real guild war that had finally erupted.

The people of Shengshi, on the other hand, were completely dumbstruck, especially those who were still in the midst of dungeon boss fights.

In a ten-person dungeon, a Shengshi group was engaged in a fierce battle with a Skeleton General, whose health had dropped below ten percent.

“The boss’s health isn’t much, keep the rhythm steady, everyone,” Beast Speaker encouraged while directing, “we’ve just made it through the toughest part; this boss is almost in our grasp. We might become the first team to conquer the last boss. Brothers, the first kill is calling out to us.”

The Shengshi players were all focused and incredibly excited. A first kill, and of a level forty heavyweight at that. They all knew their guild had struck out at Starfire, and without Starfire’s overwhelming dungeon progress suppressing them, they had finally found the correct rhythm.

The prospect of even achieving a first kill was thrilling – not just for the glory but also for the extensive rewards and wealth. As for dealing with Starfire, they didn’t worry in the least; those destined for great things don’t get bogged down by details. After all, it was Starfire’s lack of strength that led to many guilds blocking and killing them off, preventing access to the dungeons.

However, at that moment, Shengshi Cousin suddenly froze, his eyes flashing with disbelief. Because of his momentary daze, the Skeleton General’s hammer smashed down hard on his head, killing Shengshi Cousin instantly.

Everyone was stunned; any dodging player could have evaded that move. He clearly could have dodged it, so why was he killed?

“Damn it, what are you doing?” Beast Speaker’s face darkened. This boss was tough; each time a team member died, it would recover a quarter of its health. They’d managed to bring it down to eleven percent without any casualties, and Shengshi Cousin just stood still like he was giving up his life on purpose.

As a result, the boss’s health shot up to one third, and everyone felt a cold sinking in their hearts. But what chilled them even more were Shengshi Cousin’s words.

“Starfire has declared a guild war on us, we’re almost overrun.”

“What? How is that possible, when did this happen?” Beast Speaker was shocked; as the leader and pioneer who shut out all channels except the team channel, he was completely unaware of the news from the outside.

“Just now. My cousin said that he received the message that Starfire’s forces had already breached the city when the system announced it.”

Beast Speaker felt a chill creep over him. He also knew the rules of the guild war. Why was Starfire already within the city gates right at the start? After all, the distance between Starfire’s base and theirs wasn’t something that could be covered in just an hour or two.

Boom…

Distracted, Beast Speaker was instantly killed by the Skeleton General, throwing the Shengshi team into chaos…
