Heroes' Prison

Chapter 606 - 581: Scrambling for Possession

Suddenly, more and more players arrived in the Stone Chamber, many of whom were members of the Fierce Tiger Gang who had received news of the Soul Destroyer’s notification and rushed over. As for some solo players or players from other powers, they all succumbed to the threat posed by Soul Destroyer and joined the ranks attacking the Barrier.

The entire Stone Chamber was now filled with dozens of players, all furiously assaulting the Barrier! The Barrier’s Health Points had already dropped to less than 30%, and it was on the verge of being broken!

"Tat tat tat!" Just then, an unprecedented barrage of footsteps sounded, as if an army had charged over!

Following closely, over a hundred figures appeared at the entrance of the Stone Chamber, and they were indeed the members of the Hero Guild Sub-branch, led by none other than the Helmsman A Lifetime in a Day.

Seeing the scene in the hall, he curled the corner of his mouth, fixed his gaze on Soul Destroyer, and said from a distance, "Soul Destroyer, you can step aside now! From this moment on, this place is my field! I’ll give you only three seconds to cease your attack, otherwise we’ll start focusing our fire on you lot!"

"You dare threaten me?" Soul Destroyer continued his attack on the Barrier while turning to glance at A Lifetime in a Day, exuding an intimidating presence.

"Kill!" A Lifetime in a Day wasted no more words and immediately waved his hand grandly, responding to Soul Destroyer with action.

After that, all the Ranged Class members among the hundred-plus people he brought into action, firing a dense volley of shots at the crowd inside the Barrier of the Stone Chamber!

In an instant, the crowd near the Barrier devolved into chaos, frantically using their skills to defend or flee for their lives, neglecting their assault on the Barrier.

"Absolute Invisibility!" In this tumultuous situation, Huang Yi suddenly used his newly reformed Absolute Invisibility, vanishing into thin air, unseen by anyone.

Using this skill at this moment was unwise, for the area was rife with attacks, and being invisible, he could still be easily damaged and revealed. However, his Godslayer’s Naming had an attribute allowing him to ignore attacks below his own Level by 30 Levels. He was now Level 130, only pretending to be Level 95, and the majority of these players were below the Holy Domain, not even at Level 100, and thus completely incapable of inflicting any harm on him.

In the entire field, only Soul Destroyer could harm Huang Yi, but his attention was fixed on A Lifetime in a Day, completely unaware of Huang Yi’s invisibility.

"You lot keep attacking this Barrier, and I’ll wipe them out!" Soul Destroyer threw a command to his Fierce Tiger Gang members, then, spurring on his mount, the Bloodthirsty Tiger, plunged toward the crowd of the Hero Guild Sub-branch at the entrance. As a Holy Domain Warrior, facing a group of non-Holy Domain players meant he was a whole Status Hierarchy above them, and such numerical tactics were ineffective against him; he could single-handedly wipe out a host of players.

"Whoosh!" Soul Destroyer was still on the move when suddenly the cold glint of a Dagger appeared in front of him!

The glint was formidable, as if it had been lying in wait within the air for a long time, finally bursting forth at the perfect moment! The Vigor it emitted, with the spirit of an instakill, caused goosebumps to rise even before it reached its target!

This was an attack only a highly skilled assassin could execute! If struck by this Dagger, even the thickest hide would be punctured!

This was like a chilling glint that burst forth from Hell to claim lives on Earth!

However, Soul Destroyer seemed to have been prepared, for as the cold light shone, a circle of golden radiance suddenly burst forth from him, appearing impenetrable, and firmly blocked the attack!

"Ding!" The next moment, the cold light stabbed onto him, producing a sound as if gold struck stone, causing no harm!

Afterward, the owner of the cold light Dagger revealed himself from the air, and it was indeed A Lifetime in a Day!

As a Holy Domain assassin, with an unparalleled ability to assassinate, he had attempted to assassinate Soul Destroyer while invisible, but it had been ineffective!

However, his attack successfully delayed Soul Destroyer, providing his troops with ample time to attack the people around the Barrier.

"Puff puff puff!" Around the Barrier, those who couldn’t evade in time were engulfed by the Skill Radiance unleashed by the Hero Guild Sub-branch members, bursting with equipment as they fell down, turning into dead bodies.

Huang Yi, invisible, calmly watched it all, not blaming A Lifetime in a Day for his ruthlessness. In the survival world of The Second World, it was impossible not to kill the innocent entirely. At such a critical moment of treasure hunting, whoever stood in the way would have to be killed, without any room for reasoning.

However, he decided not to intervene. Under the identity of Big Baddie, he only wanted to conceal his strength and secretly obtain the Treasure. Otherwise, if he were to reveal his power to instakill the entire scene, his identity as Big Baddie would immediately become famous, something he did not wish to see. He also didn’t plan to revert to his God of Slaughter identity, because if the God of Slaughter intended to seize the Treasure, he should have come over openly and overpoweringly earlier; it made no sense to remain hidden until now. Anyone with a discerning mind would naturally suspect that he had used another identity to hide here beforehand.

"Puff!" At this moment, the last member of the Fierce Tiger Gang was struck through the heart by an Arrow, his body trembling as he fell backward and hit the ground!

Suddenly, only Soul Destroyer was left, fighting a lone battle.

"Ranged Classes, focus on the Barrier! Melee Classes, move in to secure the Treasure!" A Lifetime in a Day ordered while continuing to attack Soul Destroyer, his tone tinged with excitement.

As the order was given, the hundred-plus members of the Hero Guild Sub-branch sprang into action, coordinating their efforts. Ranged Classes aimed at the Barrier, while Melee Class players swarmed into the Stone Chamber and surrounded the Barrier.

Seeing this, Soul Destroyer grew furious but was unable to break free to hinder them, letting out a roar of rage, "Do you think you can just snatch the Treasure like this? Even if you get it, you’ll have to cough it up for me! Right now, the rest of my Fierce Tiger Gang has all the passageways blocked, you won’t leave here alive!"

"A joke! With such meager strength, you think you can block me?" A Lifetime in a Day scoffed dismissively, continuing to tangle with Soul Destroyer and prevent him from attacking the others.

Their attacks, full of vigor, were magnificent, as skill radiance illuminated the pitch-black Stone Chamber, and the fight was without a clear winner!

"Puff, puff, puff!" At the same time, the barrage of attacks from the dozens of members of the Hero Guild’s sub-branch all fell on the barrier, with various skill glows of different colors and shapes. It was a violent display with an artistic beauty, and the barrier shook violently under the assault.

Their attacks were much stronger than those of the freelance players, and soon reduced the barrier’s health points below 20%! The box containing the treasure inside seemed almost within their grasp.

"Tap, tap, tap!" But just then, a dense series of footsteps came from the entrance!

At the same time, a barrage of skill radiance shot from the depths of the passage, pouring down on those ranged class players of the Hero Guild’s sub-branch.

In an instant, the formation of the ranged players was disrupted! They scurried to dodge, unable to maintain effective output against the barrier.

And then, another group of people appeared at the entrance of the Stone Chamber!

This group was none other than the sub-branch of the Hall of Famous Generals! They had come with even more people, several hundreds! Leading them was the corpulent figure with the appearance of a dandy, none other than Guo Jia, who had previously been instakilled by the woman in the bamboo hat. He was originally Level 101, but after losing one level, he was down to Level 100.

"Kill them all!" Seeing the situation, Guo Jia skipped the threats and gave his order unceremoniously.

Then, from the hundreds behind him, every ranged class unleashed a barrage of attacks into the Stone Chamber, raining down an even more dense shower of skill radiance.

The members of the Hero Guild’s sub-branch could only run helter-skelter, forced to push deeper into the Stone Chamber and give up the barrier in the center.

Seeing this, A Lifetime in a Day’s brow furrowed slightly, and he vanished into thin air, no longer engaging in a desperate fight with Soul Destroyer.

Now, with the leaders of three powers gathered, Guo Jia’s group had the most people, and as the situation progressed, it was very likely the treasure would end up in their hands.

"Alright, everyone attack the barrier, snatch that treasure for me!" Guo Jia, seeing the crowd had been driven away, waved his plump hand and issued another command with gleaming eyes. Following that, he swung his magic wand at Soul Destroyer, forcing him away from the barrier.

As the words fell, over a hundred members from the Hall of Famous Generals’ sub-branch released their attacks at the barrier! The density of their skills far exceeded that of when the Hero Guild’s sub-branch had been attacking!

Sure enough, this assault was extraordinarily effective. The barrier’s health decreased dramatically and quickly dropped below 10%!

The more than a hundred melee class players of the Hall of Famous Generals also crowded around the barrier, sealing it off so tightly that no one could get through!

5%!

The barrier had become incredibly dim, its health dwindling, about to be shattered!

The final unveiling of the treasure was imminent! The Underground Palace explored by tens of thousands was approaching its crucial moment!

"Crack!" Finally, amidst a flurry of skill radiance, the barrier shattered with a roar, completely disappearing into thin air!

The box containing the treasure was just exposed to the open air, in full view of all the players present!

Time seemed to stand still at that moment, as if it had turned into a photograph. Countless eyes focused on it, as if trying to claim the treasure with their gaze alone!

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

In that instant, three hands suddenly appeared above the treasure in the air!

All three hands were slightly open, like three greedy mouths, all biting towards that piece of treasure! (To be continued.
