Guild Wars



Eva and Shuangtian were speechless. Meanwhile, the rest of the playerbase were now reacting to the sight before them, as they had been stupefied for a good while. 

The AI even let them have a panoramic view of the entire Demon Realm and the chunk that was blown off during the attack, just so that they could have an idea of what had actually transpired in the most direct way. 

[Phantasy Pen: AYOOOOO!!! AYOOOOOO!!! AYOOOOOO!!!!!]

[Get A Duck Pic: WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKK!!!]

[Gay Gonah Gameson: NO WAY! NO FUCKING WAYY!!!!]

[Candid Collection: I DON'T BELIEVE IT! I REFUSE TO BELIEVE IT!]

[Facking Nobody: CHEATING!! THEY ARE CHEATING!!!!]

[Loud Guide 2099: RELEASE THE STATS! PUBLICIZE THEIR STATS OR MASS BOYCOTT! I DON'T CARE IF THEY DELETE MY ACCOUNT!]

[Acrobatic Vegetable: HOW?! HOW?! HOW?!?!]

The players were boiling with the peak of shock, fear and madness, especially those who signed with the Power Faction. Seeing power like this, how could they hope to fight back against Umbra? As such, their madness caused them to unify and demand to know how the Evil Trio did it.

They didn't care if Draco and his two beauties would see this and do like Elle and announce a punishment event, they had to know or they would truly boycott Boundless and cause it trouble, like smashing Virtua Helmets, stopping the sale of pods and the like!

Eva saw this and did not seem bothered. "Sure, I can tell you. Our current power at Rank 4 is greater than any being in the history of this game's lore. We are so powerful that even the AI confessed its inability to display the totality of our power due to lack of energy." 

The players were left speechless by this. 

[Kevin the Cool Kid: Miss Riveting Night, your beauty soothes the soul and clams my anger, but I will be honest and say that answer is not very helpful.]

[Nobunaga Should Have Won: How did you even get to that level of power? What kind of classes do you have and what kind of items have you used to acquire such power?]

[Kalashnikov Lover: More Importantly, what qualified you three to acquire such power that we can't? I understand that you guys top the charts and are the most skilled amongst us all, but this kind of gap is just balance breaking.]

Shuangtian smiled. "Your concerns and questions are fair. I will say that we paid over 1 billion platinum each to acquire our current classes and they are above the Divine Rank in terms of quality. As for what comes after Divine in this game, we paid a severe price to learn it, so I won't share it with you all for free."

"I know you will then ask what did we do to earn so much money. Well, my beloved sister here previously had a Hidden Class called the Shadow Assassin. When she was only Rank 1, she used her skills and Control to sneak into the now destroyed Merchant Guild to steal the money we needed to pay for our Class Up."

The players were mesmerized by Shuangtian's voice which was unique and unmatched. Even Draco and Eva often got lost in it, which was why Shuangtian did not speak as much as they did, but when she did all living beings would feel awed. 

When they finally shook it off, comments cascaded down. 

[Heaven's Sorrow: Wow! My god, what a lovely voice! I swear if you start a podcast, a stream channel or even became an artiste, you'd probably shatter the world!]

[Ay Bay Bay: So sexy and with such a beautiful voice. My God, any man blessed to win you love will be literally a god on earth!]

[Sweet Kisses: And did you hear what she said? Riveting Night has Control! That fucking explains everything!]

[El Chapo: I'm willing to bet it isn't just Riveting Night, but all of them! It would make so much sense.]

The players began to discuss theories and remembered past events and announcements. Starting from when they first heard about Draco, everything he did and excelled at could be explained with Control. 

And with the advantage of Control, he would be heavily rewarded, which would cause his power to skyrocket, and then rinse as well as repeat this to the current day and everything somewhat made sense. 

While they were discussing this, Draco flew over and stood in between the two beauties with an arrogant look, placing his hand on both their waists unscrupulously. Naturally, Eva and Shuangtian saw nothing wrong with this and didn't react much, but the players were unhappy. 

They had long ignored this Draco fellow and were thoroughly enjoying the Q&A session with the two supreme beauties. Even their shock and anger had been quelled forcefully by Eva and Shuangtian's beauty and demeanor more than their words. 

Seeing Draco come back and do such a romantic actions with such a confident smile filled them with fury and dissatisfaction. Many faces around the world became ugly, as if they had swallowed a fly. 

"Harrumph, why answer to the weaklings? Who cares if they rebel? Do we need them to acknowledge our strength for it to be real?" Draco stated with disdain, his villainous nature acting up. 

The players became furious at his words and felt pain in their chest because they knew it was true. Only modern society created the illusion that the strong and the weak had equal rights. 

In a raw situation, the strong were the strong and the weak were the weak. The weak refusing to acknowledge the power of the strong would not miraculously make that power disappear or reduce. 

Before they could retort, a huge fluctuation appeared and the entire Demon Realm shook. Many auras rushed over from afar, traversing through space itself instead of just flying. 

The sky exploded with a shockwave that blew away the lingering dust and displayed those who arrived. It was a coalition of over 500 Demon Kings, the Demon Supreme and over 50 Demon Gods!

Their eyes were filled with fury and were completely bloodshot, glancing at the Evil Trio with hatred and endless killing intent. One of the Demon Gods stepped forward and looked down on the Evil Trio with a cold face. 

"Are you three cretins responsible for the destruction here?

Draco looked up with a sneer. "And what's it to you, shitbag? Are you going to cry and beg for us to restore things as they should be?"

The Demon God paled as his face quickly switched from casual to furious. "How dare you, shitty human! Kill him!"

The Demon God forked a finger forward and 5 Demon kings rushed forward to smash Draco to death. Their eyes were bloodshot, but one could detect a hint of cunning. In their eyes, this was an easy way to curry favor with Lord Demon God and acquire better resources!

As for Draco and how he could have done this, they believed it was a one time thing. After all, Draco was only Rank 4 in their eyes, while they were certified Rank 7s! 

Not only were they Rank 7 powerhouses, but they were Demon Race powerhouses which meant that they were more than 1.5x stronger than humans Rank 7s of the same level. 

They had full Rank and Level suppression over him, so even if he was a Dragon disguised in human skin, he would be turned into a helpless chicken!

Draco's eyes flashed as he rushed forward and clapped his hands together with a cruel grin. 

Cauldron of Evil!

｢Cauldron of Evil – Active skill 

Effect: Forcefully capture every enemy within a 5-mile radius, placing them into your cauldron where they will be set to boil. Once inside, they will either take damage if they pass a Luck check, or they will be turned into random resources or items of any kind and grade. 

Cooldown: 1 hour.｣ 

Immediately, not just the 5, but all the over 5,000 Demon kings were dragged over to the cauldron with horrified faces. The Demon Supreme and Demon Gods' expressions changed greatly, but they broke away from the pull using the power of the Laws and Divine Energy. 

Draco frowned, but he knew that until they hit Rank 5 and gained Divine Energy organically, they could not affect True Gods and above with their attacks. 

After all, if within Rank 1 to Rank 7, there was Level Suppression and Rank Suppression, then what worked on the 7 Mortal Combat Ranks from the True God level was Law Suppression and Energy Suppression. 

Law Suppression was begot due to the Combat Rank of a True God, as in when they reached Rank 7, level 400 with 99% experience and naturally broke the barrier after sublimating their power.

Here, they would choose a concept or Law to major in and become the user of it. 

For example, Fire God Flashflame with the Law of Scorching Fire, dumbass Sunna the Sun Goddess with the Law of Solar Heat. 

This was the source of their 'raw power' or 'active and passive skills'. So a True God with a Law who used, say, an active skill like the basic Fireball that everyone could learn, his Fireball and your Fireball would be vastly different. 

Even if someone like Draco with 400,000+ stat points cast a Fireball and Flashflame cast a Fireball with far lesser stats, Draco's Fireball would be smashed to pieces by Flashflame's Fireball which contains the power of the Law. 

At this stage it was not about raw power, but quality. A planet made of feathers floating in space versus a small moon made of Diamond would collide and you know which one would shatter apart. 

The feathers were bigger and more plentiful than the smaller diamond, but the quality gap was severe. 

Energy Suppression was begot due to the State of Being/Source Origin of a True God, which was gained at any point when they naturally ascended their quality of existence to be able to naturally produce and imbue Divine Energy. 

Like Control, it was two separate things that combined to form one final concept. Like how one could have VoP but not BoG and be half a Control master, one could have the Combat Rank of True god without the Source Origin or - which was usually the case - one could have the Source Origin without the Combat Rank. 

Hikari was currently an example of this and the Evil Trio, once they reached Rank 5, would also be an example of this.

Energy Suppression meant that a skill powered by something like Divine Energy would obviously smash apart a skill powered by Worldly or Aetheric Energy, or mana and such other lower energies. 

This was the energy they used to power their skills. If one without a True God Combat Rank infused Divine Energy into a skill, it would not possess the traits of Law, but its effectiveness would soar greatly. 

Using the same Fireball, powered by mana would deal 5% fire damage to a single target at Rank 1, which (depending on class rank) would be say, 50% at Rank 5. 

Powered by Worldly Energy when a player or NPC raised their State of Being to able to do so would be 100%. Powered by Aetheric Energy when a player or NPC raised their power to be able to do so would be 300%.

Powered by Divine Energy would be 5,000% minimum. 

The gap was clear. 

Otherwise, why do you think the skills of the core members would have such a high percentage for their skills and spells compared to their Legendary Classes from before? 

So when a True God used a skill or ability that had both Law and Divine Energy, no one could survive. It was why Sigurd beat everyone to death back then and why even with 100% bloodline, the Evil Trio never dared to think about fighting True Gods until they reached Rank 5. 

Even now, with the event removing suppression, its words were clear:

｢Limitation 2: You cannot use your bloodline abilities, but you no longer suffer from any form of Rank or Level suppressions.｣ 

Law and Energy Suppression were still present!
