Chapter 455 Eastern and Western Borders
Lin Tian withdrew his gaze.
Celia perched on his shoulder, looking around curiously.
Little White wrapped itself around his arm, its golden vertical pupils slightly narrowed as it surveyed the new environment.
"Brother Tian," Celia whispered, "this place is so desolate."
Lin Tian hummed in agreement.
"It's better to be desolate," he said. "There are more wild monsters there."
Celia's eyes lit up: "There are monsters to fight?"
Lin Tian nodded.
He unleashed his spiritual power, taking in the entire area within several miles.
Three kilometers to the east, there were signs of a group of wild monsters.
The level is roughly between 50 and 55.
"Let's go," he said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he took to the air and flew eastward.
Celia excitedly gripped his clothes, and Little White's tail flicked gently.
......
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the eastern region.
Zhang Tianya snapped out of his dizziness and immediately scanned his surroundings.
Behind him, more than a dozen figures appeared one after another—all core members of the War Alliance.
"President!" Zhang Heng chimed in, "We're in the Eastern Territory!"
Zhang Tianya nodded and glanced at the communicator.
The guild channel of the battle alliance was flooded with messages.
[Zhang Heng]: "I'm in the Eastern Territory! With the Guild Master!"
[Zhao Zhiyuan]: "I'm also in the Eastern Territory! Coordinates: XXX, anyone want to team up?"
[Wang Lei]: "I'm in the Western Frontier... Brothers, I'm all alone..."
[Li Qiang]: "I'm also in the Western Frontier! @Wang Lei, let's team up!"
Zhang Tianya quickly scanned the map; there were about three hundred members in the alliance who had entered the second round, and they were scattered around.
There are over a hundred in the eastern border and over a hundred in the western border.
"It's alright," he said. "At least it's not completely separated."
Zhang Heng asked, "Guild Leader, what should we do next? Should we gather together or disperse and develop our resources separately?"
Zhang Tianya thought for a moment and said, "Let's gather first. Those from the eastern border, move closer to me. Those from the western border, find a place to develop first, and we'll see how things go during the overlapping period."
He paused, then added, "Be careful on the road. The monsters on this map are high-level, so don't be greedy."
Everyone readily agreed.
Just as Zhang Tianya was preparing to lead his men out, his communicator suddenly rang again.
It was a private message from Li Weiwei.
[Li Weiwei]: "Are you in the East or the West?"
Zhang Tianya smiled and replied, "Eastern Territory. And you?"
[Li Weiwei]: "I'm also in the Eastern Territory. My coordinates are XXX, about 30 kilometers away from you."
Zhang Tianya's eyes lit up: "That's perfect. How many people are in your Blood Romance group?"
[Li Weiwei]: "Thirty-odd. How about you?"
Zhang Tianya: "More than a hundred. Why don't we join forces first? With both sides combined, we'll develop faster."
[Li Weiwei]: "That's exactly what I was thinking. See you at coordinates XXX in an hour."
Zhang Tianya: "Okay."
He put away his communicator and waved to Zhang Heng: "Let's go, let's meet up with Li Weiwei first."
Zhang Heng was taken aback: "Blood Romance is also in the Eastern Territory? That's great!"
Zhang Tianya nodded and led his men toward the agreed-upon direction.
......
Western border.
The moment Kenichi Sato landed, his hand was already on the hilt of his sword.
He glanced around to make sure there was no danger before slowly releasing his grip.
Kobayashi Hikaru's voice came from the side: "President, we are in the Western Territory."
Sato nodded, his gaze sweeping over the Dark Raven Group members who were appearing one after another.
Hattori Hanji emerged from the shadows and reported in a low voice: "No large-scale hostile forces have been detected within a three-kilometer radius."
Chishima Rin sheathed her dagger, her tone laced with disdain: "A bunch of level 20-something trash, nothing to worry about."
Yamamoto Tatsuno came running from afar, panting, "President! I... I'm in the Western Territory too!"
Sato glanced at him but ignored him.
Kobayashi Hikaru adjusted his glasses and said, "President, the question now is—which region is Lin Tian in?"
Sato remained silent for a few seconds.
"It doesn't matter," he said. "After 24 hours, once the overlap period is over, he will naturally appear at the boundary."
Kobayashi Hikaru nodded: "That makes sense. Then our task for now is to develop and increase our strength as much as possible. Until the overlapping period..."
Sato picked up the conversation, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"Wait until the overlap period, find him, and then kill him."
Yamamoto Tatsuno scratched his head: "President, can we beat him? I heard he can take on thousands by himself..."
Sato gave him a cold look.
Yamamoto Tatsuno immediately shut up.
Chishima Rin scoffed, her tone sarcastic: "If you're scared, go back to your guild and stop embarrassing yourself here."
Yamamoto Tatsuno blushed, wanting to retort but not daring to.
Kobayashi Hikaru spoke up at the right moment: "Guild Master, let's find a safe place to camp first. The monsters on this map are high-level, with elite monsters of level 50 to 60 everywhere. It's too dangerous to fight alone."
Sato nodded.
The group disappeared at the edge of the wasteland.
......
The western border, another place.
Marcus DuPont stood on a high slope, looking down at the wasteland below.
His tall body was like an iron tower, and his bare arms were muscular with prominent veins.
Catherine Morgan walked over from the side, flicking her long whip.
"They're all in the Western Territory," she said. "The Imperial Wall, plus the Iron Guard, the Red Rose, the Arcane Truth, and the Grey Eyes, totaling over four hundred people. They're scattered around and are gathering here."
Marcus nodded, a thoughtful glint in his blue eyes.
Vincent Vanderbilt emerged from the shadows, holding a hand-drawn map.
"President, good news. Kenichi Sato and his gang are also in the Western Territory."
Marcus's eyes lit up.
"Oh?"
Vincent continued, "Our men found their trail to the northeast. The Dark Ravens and the Raging Tide Guild, about two hundred people in total."
Jack Carnegie leaned over from the side, his honest face showing a hint of doubt: "Boss, they're also in the Western Territory, isn't that perfect? When the overlap period comes, they'll definitely come looking for trouble with Lin Tian."
Marcus laughed.
There was a hint of ferocity in that smile.
"Yes, they will definitely go. And they will do everything in their power."
He turned around and looked into the distance.
"Then we'll wait there. We'll wait until they and Lin Tian are both badly injured, and then—"
He clenched his fist.
"Then, we'll wrap it up."
Catherine licked her lips, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"A perfect plan."
Isabella Ford walked over from the side, her cool face expressionless.
"Guild leader, the monster levels have been confirmed. It's still the same: minimum level 50, maximum level 60. It's impossible for ordinary players to solo them; you'll need to team up."
Marcus nodded.
"That's normal. After all, it's the second round; it's not that simple."
He paused, then looked at the crowd.
"First, gather together, then find a place to grind monsters. In 24 hours, level up as many levels as you can. During the overlapping periods, every bit of strength is crucial."
