"Hey, did you hear? Apparently, a Saint grade boss is about to appear in Eternal Wind City, preparing to attack the city." One player whispered to his teammate in a low voice.
"What?!" The player didn’t seem to care whether his teammate wanted to keep it a secret or not and couldn’t help but exclaim as his eyes widened in shock while shouting noisily, "A Saint grade boss is about to attack Eternal Wind City?! You are idiot?! What are we doing here wasting our time then?!"
Without waiting for an answer, the player disappeared in a flash of white light.
As if a multi-ton rock had been thrown into a peaceful lake, the player’s shout caused many waves among the crowd of players.
"What?! A Saint boss?! Is this information reliable?!"
"I just received a message from my big sister! Let me tell you, my big sister has a pretty high status in the Deep Heart guild led by beauty Mu and they are really preparing to defend against the attack of a Saint grade boss!"
"Not just the Deep Heart guild! Apparently, the God of Heaven guild, the King’s Land guild, the Golden Era guilds, and many others are on the move!"
"I just received a picture from my friend who arrived on the scene! Apparently, Shiva, Kali, and many other players are gathering in Eternal Wind City to fight the boss!"
A move of several million players at the same time was a movement too big to go unnoticed by the rest of the players on the Chinese server.
This time, unlike the battle against the five waves of enemies back then during the Dragon Revenge quest, none of the players on the top needed to make an announcement. As if a huge machine made up of countless gears had been stimulated by the main engine, the normal players started to head towards Eternal Wind City.
None of them wanted a city on their server to be destroyed. Most of them were players who had already seen the terror of an Immortal beast, however, this did not stop many of them from feeling hopeful that they could slay this Saint grade boss and fight for valuable war loot.
Just imagining the loot they could get made the mouths of countless players drool.
Regardless of the intentions that each player had, the truth was that a terrifying number of players had begun to gather with the main objective of fighting against the Saint-grade boss that was about to show itself.

Looking at the hundreds of thousands of players coming out of the north gate of Eternal Wind City, the expression on King Hu Yi’s face was complicated. There was shock, surprise, gratitude, even a touch of fear.
Xie Feng, Shen Xinya, Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, Yao Mei, Mu Wuying, Mu Yin, Yang Li’er. Yao Zenyu, Nangong Lei, Yang Tian, and many other powerful guild leaders were standing beside the king of Eminentis City as they gave orders through their communication tools, instructing the members of their respective guilds to take different defensive positions.
"Although we, players, are weaker than you, the residents of this world, our numbers are very high." Xie Feng took a step forward and surveyed the flood-like crowd of players and indifferently remarked, "It may currently be that just one soldier can wipe out hundreds or even thousands of us... However, that won’t be the case forever. Our level will continue to increase endlessly and our lives are infinite!... At that time, the safety of the Adastreia Continent will naturally increase as a result."
King Hu Yi’s eyes flashed strangely, understanding Xie Feng’s intention in telling him those words.
In fact, King Hu Yi and the rest of the NPCs looked at the players with a bit of disdain. After all, they were too weak. However, after witnessing with his own eyes the terrifying gathering power that the players had, King Hu Yi did not dare to underestimate the growing power of these people.
Xie Feng continued, his voice filled with regret, "Unfortunately, our level is still too low..."
Everyone was listening to his words attentively, after all, Shiva was openly known as the strongest player in all of China. The only people with status equivalent to his were probably the Empress of Fire Yao Mei and the mysterious but powerful Kali who almost never appeared in public... When they heard his words, everyone could not help but frown as they realized that indeed, there was a problem that everyone had been consciously or unconsciously ignoring until now.
Due to the probably big difference in levels, it was unlikely that the attacks made by the players could reach the enemy’s body. But even if the attack did not end up being a miserable miss, it was more likely to end up being another miserable -1.
Only mages had a small chance of inflicting some damage. However, even that was hard to say.
"You don’t need to worry." Mu Wuying stepped forward and stood next to Xie Feng, who had already covered his face with his iconic mask. She looked at him with pure uncontrollable love, not caring whether others noted it or not, and assured him, "Even if the enemy is a Saint grade powerhouse, with me here your attacks will definitely reach it properly!"
In fact, the reason why Xie Feng called Mu Wuying here immediately without even thinking of a second person was because he knew that the only person capable of helping him was her.
Mu Wuying’s blessings were something that Xie Feng had already experienced during the defense battle back then. He had never in all his experience playing virtual reality video games seen a priest or priestess be able to give such extreme blessings.
He looked at her with love and gratitude that, unfortunately, she could not see because of the mask, however, his voice was proof of his emotions: "I can only trust in you this time."
His words were simple and without much context. However, Mu Wuying’s eyes lit up like stars in the night sky on a spring night and she couldn’t help but nod vigorously.
To her, such words held such great and important meaning that even Xie Feng himself could not imagine.
All the women beside Xie Feng loved him and were willing to lay down their lives for him. However, if one had to say which of them loved him more than anyone else, then undoubtedly she was Mu Wuying.
Xie Yao had also realized this almost two months ago when Xie Feng fought against the army gathered by Nangong Lei and Yao Zenyu. It was precisely because of this that she was able to put aside her prejudice against Mu Wuying and finally come to accept her... After all, a woman who could love him more than she loved him was something Xie Yao could not even imagine.
Unfortunately, until now, the woman who really loved him the most was still not really with him. Although their feelings had been fully exposed in Beijing during the battle to the death against Buluc Chabtan, Mu Wuying was the only one of them who was still so close but at the same time so far away.
