Heroes' Prison

Chapter 361 - 353: 100 Holy Domain Warriors

Next, Huang Yi sent messages to several other leaders, personally inquiring about the responsibilities they held, thereby gaining an understanding of the current state of the guild.

The Hero Guild was like a mechanism— each department worked in close collaboration, driving the colossal machine to rapidly roll forward. Everyone’s dreams were resting on this mechanism.

Just then, a vast and ancient voice suddenly echoed between heaven and earth, resounding throughout The Second World—

"[System Announcement]: Due to [God of Slaughter] humiliating and killing the Half-Beast Holy Land Warrior [Man Wen], after deliberation, the Half-Beast Holy Land of the Central Continent has decided to dispatch one hundred Holy Domain Warriors to form the Holy Domain Legion and personally head to the Mainland China Zone to pursue and kill [God of Slaughter]."

At that moment, all players around the world faltered for a second, feeling a shiver that came from the bottom of their hearts!

One hundred Holy Domain Warriors!

This was an unprecedentedly grand gesture since the opening of The Second World!

Many regular players had never even seen a Holy Domain Warrior, with only some of the larger tribes having one such warrior of Holy Domain Rank, like the Half-Beast Chieftain Huang Yi had killed before. But this time, the Half-Beast Holy Land had dispatched a hundred all at once!

At this moment, everyone had only one thought— Huang Yi was in big trouble!

While Huang Yi might be able to resort to trickery to kill a single Holy Domain Warrior, a hundred Holy Domain Warriors represented absolute strength, enough to completely crush any existence on this continent!

Huang Yi had truly angered them!

The incident from yesterday involving Man Wen kneeling to apologize had pushed the Half-Beast Holy Land into a corner; only the most ferocious flames of anger could wash away such humiliation!

And this announcement was the first time the strength of a race’s Holy Land had been showcased. The Half-Beastmen, one of the one hundred common races in The Second World, whose Holy Land was located in the central region of the core area, represented the ultimate power of the entire Half-Beast race.

The strength of this Holy Land had always been murky, its true extent unknown. Everyone knew it was powerful, but no one knew exactly how powerful it was. However, the proclamation revealed a glimpse of the iceberg—their Holy Land could dispatch one hundred Holy Domain Warriors in one breath. And this was just a fraction of their strength, its full might if fully deployed, was unfathomable.

"Brother Yi, what do we do next? They previously sent only one Holy Domain Warrior, but now they’ve sent a hundred, they’re surely intent on ensuring death!" At this point, Huang Yi received an urgent message from Qin Shiyu.

"Gather the heads of each department and call an immediate meeting!" Huang Yi replied to Qin Shiyu and headed straight for City Hall!

Along the way, all the pedestrians on the streets turned their heads to look at Huang Yi, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was heavy with tension.

A cloud drifted across the sky, obscuring the sunlight and casting a large shadow as if the eve of war had arrived.

All members of the Hero Guild were now tied with Huang Yi on the same boat, being dragged into this pursuit, about to face the wrath of a hundred Holy Domain Warriors. All their hopes lay with Huang Yi.

Huang Yi remained expressionless, not showing any sign of fear or confidence, just like usual, no one could discern what he was thinking.

Soon, Huang Yi arrived at the assembly hall of City Hall, being the first one there. The hall was empty, and the wind from the windows blew on his lone figure.

Huang Yi approached the window, gazing towards the far reaches beyond Dragon City, his profound gaze seeming to penetrate the boundless space and envisioning the distant other side where one hundred Holy Domain Warriors were crossing oceans and mountains, coming towards him with great momentum!

At this moment, Dragon City was like a lone boat on the verge of capsizing in a marine storm.

"Brother Yi, do you have a plan?" Behind him came Qin Shiyu’s voice; she stood beside Huang Yi, bringing a waft of fragrant breeze.

"I’m still considering the feasibility," Huang Yi pondered, his gaze falling on the floor below the City Hall, where the Head of the Mage Hall, Light Demon, alongside the High Priest, Prideful Death God, were walking side by side.

"Your Rose Prison truly has a wealth of talent! Without them, our Guild couldn’t have developed so rapidly," Qin Shiyu’s beautiful eyes also watched the guild’s senior managers arriving one after another below. Most of them were from Rose Prison, brothers well-known to Huang Yi.

"Actually, they are just a small part of it. There are people from Rose Prison all over the world. When the time is right, I will let the brothers from Rose Prison come forth. Coupled with the power we’ve spread around the world, that will be our true ultimate face," Huang Yi said, raising his head to gaze into the vast sky, adding mysteriously, "People think that the Half-beastmen Holy Land has only revealed the tip of the iceberg, but little do they know, we too have only shown the tip of our iceberg."

At that moment, the dark clouds in the sky finally drifted away, and the warm sunlight poured down, shining on Huang Yi’s face.

In that blue sky, an eagle spread its wings, soaring gracefully.

...

After a while, more than a dozen top executives from the Hero Guild arrived one after another in the conference hall, sitting around a large round table.

"Alright, almost everyone is here now, so let’s begin," Huang Yi looked around at the dozen or so top managers seated at the round table. They were the absolute core of the Hero Guild, the individuals whose decisions could determine the guild’s life or death.

Huang Yi addressed them first, "Everyone heard the announcement just now. We’re going to face an attack from one hundred Holy Domain warriors. Don’t be afraid; if we want to grow, we must go through such tough times. I already have an outline of a plan. Leave those one hundred Holy Domain warriors to me. You just take good care of your respective departments."

He paused, then continued, "What worries me most is the port that is currently under construction outside. We’ve invested so much money into it, and if those one hundred Holy Domain warriors target it, then all that money will have been for nothing." Huang Yi said this, then turned to look at the Minister of Logistics, Little Riddler, and asked, "How are the port’s defensive measures?"

"The city walls are still under construction, but the Magic Towers have been completely built," Little Riddler nodded. "Regarding the Magic Towers, we’ve built them according to Dragon City’s standards. Currently, they’re among the most advanced Magic Towers of all guilds. We have built two different grades of Magic Towers. The outermost Magic Towers are Level 100 Holy Domain Magic Towers, capable of releasing the Heavenly Curtain Barrier of Holy Domain Rank, covering the widest range and encompassing the port area within a fifty-kilometer radius. The second type, which cost us a fortune to construct, are Level Two Hundred Heavenly Domain Magic Towers, capable of producing Barriers of the Heavenly Domain Level to guard an area within a ten-kilometer radius of the port."

"Good, turn on both Magic Towers for the next few days to prevent those one hundred Holy Domain warriors from causing destruction! Don’t worry about the consumption of Magic Stones," Huang Yi instructed.

"Understood!" Little Riddler nodded in agreement. "However, Barriers aren’t omnipotent. If the Holy Domain Barrier sustains too strong an attack, it can still be shattered, and we can only hold on for a while. Even the Heavenly Domain Barrier could potentially be extinguished if they put up a concerted attack. A united assault from one hundred Holy Domain warriors would require the Barrier to absorb a massive amount of Magic Stones to fend off such an attack, and the consumption at that moment would be truly staggering."

"I understand. My intention is to have the Magic Barrier hold up for a while to give us time to think of countermeasures," Huang Yi nodded in affirmation.

"Sunset!" Suddenly, Huang Yi touched his chin, "Recently, you’ve spread out your Battlefield Group to continue attacking members of the Wind Kingdom in the wilderness. Remember to engage in small-scale fights, don’t start a large-scale war, or if they get help from a Holy Domain warrior, we’ll be wiped out. We’ll fight a guerrilla war against them, striking from all sides."

"I was thinking the same!" Sunset immediately agreed. "Our Battlefield Group has now broken through one million people. We are basically fighting in groups of hundreds, scattered in various places. Whenever we see a team from the Wind Kingdom, we attack. We killed more than seventy thousand yesterday, and we expect to kill over a hundred thousand today."

Huang Yi’s gaze shifted from Sunset to Nameless, "Sunset’s Battlefield Group is responsible for killing some ordinary players from the Wind Kingdom. Nameless, your Assassin Group is developing well and is the top Assassins’ Hall in the China region. Have some of your elite assassins target high-level members of the Wind Kingdom; when necessary, you can take action yourself. You and Mirror Broken are among the Four Great Assassins in the China Region; few can survive an encounter with you."

"Certainly! Mirror Broken has been lying in ambush for the leader of the Wind Kingdom’s Battlefield Group for several days!" Nameless said with a smile.

"Excellent! Let him go ahead with his plans," Huang Yi nodded, then looked at the High Priest, Prideful Death God, "How’s the progress with that Heart of Religion?"

"We are halfway there now, having gathered blessings from over five hundred thousand priests. By tomorrow night, we expect to have reached one million," Prideful Death God replied. "Additionally, I’ve seen messages on the forums about this; the Heart of Religion requires special Energy from all classes. Once my Priest Hall has finished with the blessings, the next step should be to gather Magic Power focus from one million mages."

"When that time comes, check the exact situation with the Heart of Religion. If that’s the case, go directly to Light Demon. He has over a million mages under his command, so it won’t be too difficult to manage," Huang Yi said, looking towards the Head of the Mage Hall, Light Demon.

"Got it! The female mages in our Mage Hall are numerous and have been well-trained by me," Light Demon leaned back, crossing his legs and chuckled mischievously.
