Chapter 817 War King Advancement
Just as the six patriarchs made their move against the royal city, the Wolf King and the Snake King on the other side also learned of the news through the Dream Realm.
Thanks to the years of infiltration of the lower city into the upper city, the two of them easily infiltrated the upper city with a group of people.
The Upper City, which has been at peace for so long, has long since lost its vigilance against crises.
The two arrived at the "slums" of the Upper Town, a place very similar in character to the Lower Town.
For Zhan Wang and his group, simply letting the lower city become independent wouldn't make much sense.
Guarding the abyss rift is not only dangerous, but also offers no future.
The ever-pervasive abyssal aura will not disappear simply because the lower city is powerful, unless a way is found to close the abyssal rift.
We must seize this opportunity to expand the lower city area and open up a wider world.
Therefore, the War King's people plotted to take advantage of the situation to lay eggs, seize a portion of the upper city's territory, and then communicate with the outside world.
After all, both the upper and lower districts belong to Blackwater City on the surface, but the latter has never had any say in the past.
"The core areas guarded by the six major families still belong to them, but the other areas can be ours," the Wolf King declared, ruling over everyone.
If the plan succeeds, the lower city will no longer be in a state of slavery, but will have decision-making power, and both sides can engage in a game of strategy over the entire Blackwater City.
At that time, whether they completely divide Blackwater City or annex the six major families, it will all be within their options.
The first step is to help them gain a foothold.
"Let's set off and take back what belongs to us."
The wolf king stood in front of the street, watching the people from the outer city gather, and let out a piercing wolf howl.
Regardless of their thoughts or purposes, once the system of the lower city is established here, they will likely not refuse.
After all, the Wolf King and his group could offer a better price than the Upper City, and anyone with ambition wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
Ouch...
A wolf howl that seemed to echo through the heavens and earth resounded, and at that moment, even the bright moonlight was faintly tinged with a crimson hue.
The long-peaceful main city of the Upper District is now facing a powerful challenger.
The six great families' golden-level patriarchs chose to join forces to launch a surprise attack on War King City, while War King also dispatched the Snake King and Wolf King to divide the upper city, completely igniting the war in the entire Blackwater City and involving everyone.
Upper Town, Lower Town, adventurers, family members... no one can escape this war.
Just as a chaotic battle broke out in the upper city, the six ancestors who were besieging the War King City also changed their expressions as they kept receiving messages from their families.
"They're living too comfortably these days, and now they have to bother us with such small things."
The ancestors who received the message were not shocked by the actions of the lower city; instead, they were somewhat annoyed by their own people.
Although the message was sent urgently, there was no indication that a gold-level expert had appeared.
That's true. If a Gold-level expert had appeared in the lower city, this battle probably wouldn't have happened, or at least not in this form.
Since there aren't even any Gold-level beings, why would the six major families, who have ruled the Upper City for so many years, be afraid of a mere mole from the Lower City and Outer City uniting together?
For professionals, quality is far more important than quantity, not to mention that at the middle and upper levels, the professionals from the six major families also have a double advantage in both quality and quantity.
Even among lower-level professionals, the number of professionals from the six major families is still quite large.
If this still can't stop them, then the six patriarchs will have to consider personally purging their families.
"War King, don't think that this will distract us. Once we deal with you, the others are nothing more than a minor nuisance." Ancestor Stan said coldly.
If this opportunity can serve as a warning to the family, it might be a good thing.
Everyone understands the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace, but putting it into practice is very difficult.
In any case, the strongholds of the six major families are also impregnable, and even gold-level beings would find it difficult to breach them easily. Moreover, they have various trump cards that are even enough to threaten gold-level beings.
Unless a group of Gold-level or even Legendary-level experts emerge in the Lower City, it will be impossible to wipe out their family instantly.
"Haha, it's my good fortune to have you all take this so seriously."
The War King laughed loudly, "However, my purpose is not for you, but for myself..."
"The spirit of war is gathering..."
The war, which stirred up the two urban districts and affected countless people, including a large number of professionals, also fully met the requirements of the War King's advancement ceremony.
Under Lu Yunhe's tutelage, Zhan Wang has reached the limit of the Silver level in all aspects. With the help of secret techniques, he can even fight against the Gold level. If he is backed by Zhan Wang City, he can completely contend with the Gold level.
Therefore, for the War King, advancing to the Gold rank is only one last ritual away.
At this moment, the war between the upper and lower city areas became the last straw that broke the camel's back, helping the War King pry open the door to the Gold level.
It's far from a war if only the lower city and six Gold-level ancestors are involved. Only when the entire upper city is involved can it be considered a real war.
Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, everyone from top to bottom will be involved, and no one can escape.
"not good!"
Sensing the War King's condition, the six patriarchs' expressions immediately changed.
Such a powerful war fortress is a completely different concept in the hands of a Silver-level player versus a Gold-level player.
"Stop him now!"
"Stanga shouted, and before he could finish, the other ancestors reacted as well."
"Haha, it's too late!"
The War King was very excited. He never thought that one day he would become a Gold-level being.
In this barren land, the Gold rank can be said to be the ultimate pursuit for all professionals, enough to create a large family.
boom……
The fundamental principles of existence were activated, and a force flowed through the world itself, feeding back into the War King, instantly causing his physical body and soul to soar.
Under Lu Yunhe's guidance, the War King also learned many secret techniques related to physical enhancement and combat, but many of them could not be fully utilized by a Silver-level player.
At this moment, with the leap in his realm, the War King was finally able to put some of the knowledge his master had taught him into practice.
"If it were the master, his silver body would probably be enough to fight these six ancestors." The War King thought to himself, gripping the rising power in his hand, staring at the six ancestors in front of him with a fierce fighting spirit.
Or rather, there were four of them. On the other side, the four people, A, B, C, and D, were still fulfilling their duties and blocking the two patriarchs.
"Come and fight!"
The newly promoted War King's aura soared to the sky. The improvement in his physical body's essence allowed him to fully withstand the blessing from War King City.
The body, which had been somewhat cracked, has now fully recovered.
The four patriarchs were not fighting against the War King alone, but against everyone in the entire War King City.
Because of the War King's successful advancement, the four patriarchs hesitated to move forward. However, the War King did not let go of this opportunity and took the initiative to attack the four patriarchs.
The War King's figure was like a longbow. With a burst of energy, he charged towards the four ancestors like an arrow released from a bow.
In an instant, another great battle broke out. At this moment, the War King, through the formation, gathered the power of the masses and was fully capable of contending with the Gold-level Ancestor.
Although he has only just advanced, with the help of the formation, the War King's punches and kicks far surpass those of ordinary Gold-level warriors.
Moreover, when faced with the attacks of the ancestors, the War King could only rely on the power of the royal city's formation to share the pressure, which resulted in the person who activated the formation suffering a severe backlash.
However, once a War King successfully advances, he is also at the Gold level, so he can naturally withstand the pressure from his peers and share a significant amount of pressure with the formation.
This positive cycle will continuously extend the duration of the royal city's power.
"Is this War King really someone who just advanced?" The four elders cursed inwardly as they fought the War King together.
The power and proficiency with which the War King displayed were unlike that of someone who had just advanced; rather, they resembled those of a seasoned professional.
Neither his strength nor his experience in fighting enemies showed any signs of rust.
Although he was fighting four opponents alone, the War King was still full of energy and had a fighting spirit that made him stronger with each battle.
On the other side, the two patriarchs were also struggling to fight against the four demons, A, B, C, and D.
Although the Four Demons are only Silver-level, in a real battle, they can be regarded as Gold-level masters.
Although there are four people, their aura and will are all the same, and they can be regarded as one person.
Combined with the unique regenerative abilities of the Abyss Demons, and the subtle support from the surrounding environment, the two patriarchs were unable to subdue the four demons in a short period of time.
Especially the armored demon at the head, who unleashed hellfire; that pure hellfire could even threaten a gold-level expert.
Even the two patriarchs were unwilling to be easily tainted by this hellfire.
"They're just like the Hellfire Demons," the two elders cursed inwardly.
They had originally planned to capture the four demons and study them carefully, but they didn't expect them to be so strong that even working together they couldn't hold them down, and they didn't even give them a chance to separate.
The four demons working together are comparable to the Gold level, and this "comparable" is comprehensive.
If it weren't for the sudden advancement of the War King's side, both ancestors would have wanted the other side to send two more people to deal with these four demons first.
"With such a dense abyssal aura, what kind of ruins did the War King unearth that even has such demonic puppets?" The two ancestors became increasingly alarmed as they fought.
The techniques displayed by the four demons were far more astonishing than their actual strength.
They were able to contend with Gold-level puppets with just four Silver-level puppets. If they could refine more, wouldn't that be a world of difference?
Even those at the Gold level would be far from being able to achieve this level of skill.
With this in mind, the elders all had their own plans.
On the War King City side, the battle between the Gold-level beings has reached a stalemate.
On the other side, in the upper city, the Wolf King and the Snake King's offensive was very effective, and they quickly occupied a part of the upper city.
The heads of the six major families had not received a reply from their patriarch and were unable to make a decision, resulting in a series of blunders.
One moment they were fighting back with all their might, the next they were trying to protect the core territory of their families, and some even began to resist professionals who were not from their families.
The six major families had been running the entire Upper City for many years, but now, faced with this sudden problem, they were completely at a loss.
Although they possessed immense power, they were unable to mobilize it at the moment, each fighting their own battles and being constantly forced back by the Wolf King and his allies, whose objectives were more clearly defined.
"enough!"
