Chapter 148: Elysium meadows

A week had passed since the discussion about Guild Echelon’s headquarters in the inn, and the Heavenly Domain had settled into a new rhythm.

With Nightingale having set the strings in motion already with his money, the already establishing itself in the Labyrinthine Expanse, Noah had no interest in mundane logistics.

His goal remained the same, to dominate the game in his own way.

Well, during his personal conversation with Nightingale, having asked in such a manner, there was no way the handsome hip hop celebrity was going to reject him. Nightingale agreed.

When he eventually told Aria about it, the fiery lady simply shrugged and said. "I’m not surprised, I always imagined you being kidnapped for such a reason".

Noah was appalled.

Well, what else did he expect from Aria?

And now, while his teammates were at the end of their Heavenly Domain Challenge, dominating the Arena in his absence, while the boss of Club Echelon took on two main tasks, establishing a search team to look for traces of Noah’s body and his kidnappers, whoever they are, while also taking charge of the guild establishment in the Heavenly Domain, Noah focused on one thing, leveling up.

And that led him to the heart of the Elysium Meadows.

The Obsidian Citadel was just one city in this region of the Heavenly Domain, the Elysium Meadows, a vast and deceptively beautiful region teeming with both wonders and deadly challenges.

A realm of beauty and peril.

The Elysium Meadows was a breathtaking expanse of rolling golden fields, crystalline rivers, and towering silver-barked trees that hummed with latent magic.

Wildflowers bloomed in colors unseen in the real world, their petals swirling in the wind like enchanted fireflies.

But beneath this picturesque façade lurked a playground of death, monsters that could turn a careless adventurer into nothing but an echo on the wind.

And Noah? He was here alone.

Aetherforge gleamed in his grip as he strode through the tall grass, the wind teasing the red cloak floating behind him.

The system constantly threw party-recommended warnings at him, but he ignored them. In dungeons and in the field, going solo meant no distractions, no dead weight, and no one to slow him down.

Like every other region of the Heavenly Domain, there were monsters who took the Elysium Meadows as home.

His first encounter was against the Celestial Stags, and it came swiftly.

A herd of Celestial Stags, massive, radiant creatures with silver antlers crackling with electricity.

Their movement was ethereal and ghostly, almost like mirages, flickering through the meadows with unnatural speed. Most players wouldn’t dare attack a full herd alone.

And yet, Noah didn’t hesitate.

With a sharp leap forward, he activated Force Push, sending a shockwave through the herd, disrupting their formation.

The moment one staggered, Aetherforge’s form changed, igniting as he executed Piercing Shot in close range, turning into a high-powered energy blast that speared through one stag and into the next.

A powerful shockwave rippled through them, leaving only smoldering remains. But the stags weren’t just prey.

The Herd Guardian emerged, a monstrous, six-horned Thunderhorn Alpha three times the size of the others, its body flickering with arcs of lightning, towering above Lord Doom like a giant.

It charged, faster than anything that big had a right to be.

Noah grinned.

At the moment of impact, he activated the Levitate skill, lifting himself just out of its reach. Before the beast could react, he counterattacked.

Twisting midair, channeling the Berserker high level skill, Overpower into his blade, he slammed downward.

BOOM!

The explosive shockwave from the strike created a crater on the ground beneath them, and the Thunderhorn Alpha collapsed in a convulsing heap.

[You have slain a Field Boss: Thunderhorn Alpha!]

"Sweet!" Noah grinned.

He didn’t stop there.

Following the hunt, he ventured into a hidden dungeon.

[You have entered a dungeon: Verdant Maw]

Inside the dungeon was a twisted labyrinth of vines, roots, and eerie bioluminescent plants.

At the heart of the dungeon lay the Blooming Horror, a massive, flower-like monstrosity with razor-sharp petals and toxic pollen capable of melting armor.

The ensuing fight was brutal.

Poison clouds filled the air, forcing Noah to weave between cover while launching Bullet Storm from mid-range. Vine tendrils lashed out, but Guardian Golem intercepted, holding the line while Noah repositioned.

The Blooming Horror’s final form forced Noah to unleash Sniper’s Focus, landing a perfectly times shot in its exposed core.

In the ensuing aftermath of that devastating shot, he shattered the beast in an eruption of light.

The dungeon collapsed behind him as he strode out, a rare Verdant Emblem now in his inventory, marking his dominance over the Elysium Meadows.

Noah wiped the dust from his armor, smirked, and whispered.

"Next".

This had been his schedule for the past week.

He constantly went to the wild, hunting monsters, challenging dungeons, while all the while staying alert for an ambush.

None of it came though.

For some reason, after Jonathan failed in his ambush, others were reluctant to engage him in battle. Noah did not know the exact reason for this.

Yes, he already revealed his presence in the Heavenly Domain, restricting the movement of the most famous English pro players but still, he expected them to have attacked using alternate accounts.

So why?

Noah could not claim to know their thought processes though, and so he continued fighting beasts, doing his thing, leveling up.

After leaving the Verdant Maw dungeon, he roamed about, tracking and hunting more monsters and finally, Noah received a system notification that he had been anticipating since.

[You have received XP!]

[You have leveled up!]

[You are now level 61!]

In the heavenly domain now, he required even more kills and XP to level up but Noah was not deterred, determined to face the task.

Later that evening, he got news.

Surprisingly, of the 4, Caleb was the first to complete his Heavenly Domain Challenge but just 2 minutes after Caleb completed his, Aria followed in his footsteps, arriving in the Heavenly Domain.

"Finally". Noah muttered, going to meet up with his friends.

For some reason, he felt that their enemies have held back on their ambush all for this moment when his friends would arrive.

’Let’s see what you guys have planned’.
