The female team snatching gold really made them break out in a cold sweat.
But the following part from America is quite funny...
By the way, please vote!
Outside the Kodo Beast Valley, the fierce battle between over a thousand players and tens of thousands of magic wolves had already erupted...
The magic wolf pack was in a truly miserable situation!
During the day, they could still rely on the Black Wind Forest to continuously spawn reinforcements of magic wolves. But now, they had been completely surrounded by the vanguard of the Sovereign Mercenary Group near the Kodo Beast Valley! Even if the Black Wind Forest held countless more magic wolves, it would be like using too little water to quench a raging fire...
Moreover, the Sovereign Mercenary Group had gone all out, forming a tight encirclement and directly launching a brutal assault by pressing close with defensive tank warriors and melee fighters!
The mages and archers of every school, shielded by the warriors, hurled their most powerful skills and magic spells into the dense ranks of the magic wolf pack.
In an instant, countless overlapping spells and skills rained down. The magic wolf pack collapsed like wheat flattened by a thresher, sprawling in great swaths outside the valley!
The Sovereign Mercenary Group pressed forward without slack, surging into the valley interior! They had no intention of granting the magic wolf pack even the slightest chance... nor would they spare the dragon wolf knight group, who lurked covetously nearby!
Under this relentless pace of advance, the Gale Demon Wolf King’s howls inside his pack grew frantic and desperate. He kept barking orders, urging his wolves to charge out of the valley without fear of death!
Yet the disparity in strength could not be overlooked...
The firepower net woven by the massed third-rank mages and archers was simply insurmountable. The Gale Demon Wolf King could no longer alter the inevitable doom of his wolf pack!
Finally, in a thunderous roar that shook the Kodo Beast Valley, the Gale Demon Wolf King threw himself into the fray, leading the last of his wolves in one final desperate assault against the Sovereign Mercenary Group’s firepower line!
Led by their king, the magic wolves unleashed a storm of the most devastating attacks. Dozens to hundreds of wind blades shot toward the warriors in organized volleys, slicing through the air like a dense gale!
Yet to the Sovereign Mercenary Group, this was nothing more than the exhausted final gambit of a cornered beast—the Gale Demon Wolf King running out of tricks...
They had prepared for exactly this. Before the wind blades could strike, several mages swiftly summoned towering tornadoes that slammed into place directly in front of the firepower line, dramatically diminishing the blades’ lethal force.
When the wind blades finally pierced the tornadoes, they met a series of two-meter-high earthen walls. After countless deafening impacts, the walls crumbled, but the few remaining blades that slipped through posed no real threat to the warriors.
Conversely, a large portion of the attacking magic wolves were themselves knocked sprawling by the counter-magic. Even the Gale Demon Wolf King was left battered and humiliated under the relentless barrage of special “dense suppression”...
Even after forcing his way to the front of the Sovereign Mercenary blockade, he could not advance a single step further...
By the flickering light of the magic fire torches, the Gale Demon Wolf King’s limbs had sunk deep into a marshland that seemed to appear out of nowhere. Although his movement was not completely sealed, the brief moment of stagnation was more than enough for the remote firepower handlers to unleash a devastating final barrage!
A howl that echoed across the entire Kodo Beast Valley signaled the end of the battle against the magic wolf pack...
With the fall of the Gale Demon Wolf King, countless magic wolves scattered like flies, fleeing wildly out of the valley. Soon the entire pack was annihilated.
Only then did the massive boulder pressing on the heart of the Sovereign and the Sovereign Mercenary Group finally lift from their chests.
...
After the battle with the magic wolf pack ended, the Sovereign at the center of the formation finally exhaled in relief. But moments later his gaze drifted toward the glowing light deep within the Kodo Beast Valley. He pondered for a long moment, then issued a cold order through the group channel:
“Everyone guard the exits!”
“War Wolf! Take people inside! Find him!”
The chilling directive sent the Sovereign Mercenary Group into immediate motion.
Hundreds of players swiftly sealed the Kodo Beast Valley, carefully leaving several wide gaps to avoid being classified by the system as “maliciously blocking the entrance.” (PS: In the game, any attempt to block a door is automatically labeled as malicious assault; all players within and outside the area may defend themselves and retaliate; the status lasts for 180 seconds!)
Following the Sovereign’s command, War Wolf immediately led a group of loyal brothers into the valley, their faces twisted with vicious fury and killing intent.
Yes...
His target was the looter Qilin who had humiliated him!
Not long ago, he had only instructed a few trusted brothers to watch the looter Qilin’s movements, waiting for the perfect moment to strike back. But after half a day, there had been no news at all!
Driven by hatred, War Wolf refused to give up. He queried the looter Qilin’s level records and the result left him stunned!
Level 9! In just half a day since leaving the Black Wind Forest, the looter Qilin had skyrocketed from level 15 to 19—about to advance to a second-rank profession!
The speed of his growth was too terrifying! Moreover, War Wolf began to suspect the looter Qilin had powerful backing or knew secret leveling spots that allowed such rapid progression.
This suspicion made War Wolf’s heart grow uneasy. Finally setting aside his pride, he confided his shameful secrets to his cousin—the current leader of the Sovereign Mercenary Group, the Sovereign himself.
Although revealing such humiliating truths demanded great courage, the narrow-minded War Wolf no longer cared. The looter Qilin had displayed terrifying power even at level 1. If he continued to grow unchecked, the future threat he posed was unimaginable.
So he was desperate to find the opponent and crush him... at least drive him out of Xuanfrost City!
This urgency was exactly why he had learned the looter Qilin’s precise location and acted so quickly!
...
At that moment, the Sovereign stood silently at the valley entrance, staring at War Wolf’s retreating back, replaying every word he had heard. His brows furrowed slightly.
Was the story truly as War Wolf claimed—that the dragon wolf knight group had ambushed him from behind and nearly slain him together with the newcomer? Was this looter Qilin actually a member of the dragon wolf knight group? Why had War Wolf vented all his rage on a mere level-one newbie?
The Sovereign frowned, deep in thought, convinced that War Wolf was concealing something from him!
