âIs that woman strong, Guild Leader?â Hidden Soul asked out of curiosity when she saw Shi Feng scrutinizing Verdant Rainbow.
Hidden Soul understood Shi Feng to a certain degree, so she knew that most experts couldnât catch his attention. Even when the other party was a powerful and influential person in the Greater Godâs Domain, Shi Feng would, at most, take a few extra glances at them. He would never bother to scrutinize them.
Normally, those who could gain Shi Fengâs scrutiny would be individuals of extraordinary strength. Or, more specifically, individuals who could threaten his life.
âYes. Very much so,â Shi Feng quietly said and nodded. âI dare say sheâs among the top ten strongest players in the current Eternal Realm.â
âTop ten?â Hidden Soul couldnât help but take a closer look at Verdant Rainbow upon hearing Shi Fengâs evaluation. Then, she skeptically continued, âAlthough she is currently at Tier 6, her mana and aura still feel weaker than Azure Shadowâs group. The various apex powers should have also sent some of their old monsters into the Eternal Realm. Even if she is slightly stronger than the various apex powersâ younger generation, I doubt anyone of the younger generation can rank among the Eternal Realmâs top ten.â
Hidden Soul was no longer as ignorant regarding the Greater Godâs Domain as she was when she was still operating under the Flower of Seven Sins. While she might not know how many experts the various apex powers had under their command, she knew every major power operating in the Greater Godâs Domain had a group of old monsters operating behind the scenes.
In terms of age, even the youngest of these old monsters were probably over a century old, while the older ones had mingled in the Greater Godâs Domain for centuries already. Meanwhile, because of the combat experience they had accumulated and the foundation they had built for themselves, they had a vast advantage over players of the younger generation, and it would take the younger generation a lot of time and effort to catch up to them.
Moreover, the stronger a power was, the more so this would be. After all, most of these old monsters had similarly been regarded as paragons and chosen ones during their younger days. The talent they possessed was not at all inferior to the current younger generation.
Admittedly, not many powers and players were currently present in the Eternal Realm. But even in this limited population of players, it would still be incredibly difficult to rank among the top ten in strength. In Hidden Soulâs opinion, even Shi Feng couldnât necessarily accomplish this feat, so the odds of a woman younger than Shi Feng accomplishing it should be even lower.
âIt might be impossible for others, but not for her,â Shi Feng said, shaking his head and wryly smiling when he saw the skeptical look on Hidden Soul. âAs for why that is the case, it is because she currently possesses the World String, a Divine Artifact. It wouldnât even be an exaggeration to regard her as a Taboo.â
Verdant Rainbow was a legendary name in Shi Fengâs previous life. During a defensive siege against the Holy Race, Verdant Rainbow had single-handedly slain sixteen Ancient Saints and one Holy Ancestor. Her achievement was so astonishing that she scared away the royal power attacking the Holy City she defended. But who could blame them?
To the Holy Race, Ancient Saints were the equivalent of the human raceâs Ancient Gods, while Holy Ancestors were the equivalent of the human raceâs Primordial Gods.
Yet, with one bow, Verdant Rainbow had shot down sixteen Ancient Saints and one Holy Ancestor. Such an achievement could only be found in the Grand Libraryâs records in the modern Greater Godâs Domain. In fact, Verdant Rainbowâs achievement might be even more incredible than these records.
It was why the twelve rulers of the Twelve Sanctuaries had unanimously agreed to award Verdant Rainbow with the title of God Hunter.
In terms of significance, a title awarded by the Twelve Sanctuariesâ rulers was far more valuable than a title awarded by the Seven Luminaries Alliance. Not only was it a representation of strength and status in the Greater Godâs Domain, but it also came with blessings from the Greater Godâs Domain.
Although the current Verdant Rainbow had yet to become as strong as she was when the Holy Race invaded the Twelve Sanctuaries in Shi Fengâs previous life, the fact that she was already in possession of the World String meant that she could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Ancient Gods.
This was also why Shi Feng was so surprised to see Verdant Rainbow.
âA Divine Artifact? Is the Seven Luminaries Alliance insane?â
After hearing Shi Fengâs words, Hidden Soul couldnât help but gape in shock as she looked at the strange-looking crystalline longbow on Verdant Rainbowâs back.
For players like herself, Divine Artifacts were things they could only dream of obtaining. Although Shi Feng had handed the Fragmented Divine Artifact-rank Chaos Windblade to Gentle Snow sometime ago, Hidden Soul still felt that Divine Artifacts were far out of her reach.
Meanwhile, Divine Artifacts were items regarded by the various pseudo-apex powers as their greatest trump card. They would never take out their Divine Artifacts to a fight unless they were facing an existential crisis.
Hence, Hidden Soul found it unbelievable the Seven Luminaries Alliance would let someone take a Divine Artifact into a fight over just one resurrection camp.
It should be known that Divine Artifacts were items that could be dropped on death. In fact, they would have a considerably great chance of dropping in battles between players. After all, players could use curse-type tools or special barriers to drastically increase their opponentsâ death penalty. On a large battlefield, players could even lose all of their weapons and equipment if they died multiple times.
There was also no way to hide a Divine Artifact from others in battle. It might be hard to tell a weapon or equipmentâs exact rank outside of battle, but once in battle, so long as a player wasnât an inexperienced amateur, they could quickly determine the rank of their opponentsâ weapons and equipment based on the other partyâs combat performance.
Not to mention, the might of a Divine Weapon was vastly superior to Legendary and Fragmented Divine Weapons. The moment Verdant Rainbow took action, everyone would be able to tell she was wielding a Divine Weapon.
Defending a resurrection camp with a Divine Weapon was no different than waving a winning lottery ticket in a crowded street. Was the Seven Luminaries Alliance not afraid of getting robbed?
âThatâs not for us to worry about,â Shi Feng said when he saw Hidden Soulâs drooling look. Then, he switched to the team chat and said, âMiss Frey, once the battle begins, have all of your people gather near our Tier 6 members and do not move more than a hundred yards away. Otherwise, we will have difficulty rescuing you.â
âArenât you being a little too cautious, Guild Leader Black Flame? We will only be dealing with the rabble who manages to slip through,â Unrestrained Lionheart said as he looked at Shi Feng in confusion. âNot to mention, if we restrict our movements to 100 yards around you, we will have trouble chasing the Holy Race players out of the campâs core circle.â
The rules for occupying a resurrection camp were simple. So long as a Guild could ensure it had the most members present in a resurrection campâs core circle for 24 hours, it would immediately gain ownership of the resurrection camp. No interruptions were allowed during this period. If a Guild failed to maintain its numerical advantage even once, the whole occupation process would have to start all over again.
But once a resurrection camp was occupied, if other Guilds wished to occupy it, they would need to ensure nobody but their own members were present in the core circle. Moreover, they needed to keep it that way for 24 hours. If so much as one member from the resurrection campâs owner entered the core circle, the occupation process would be canceled, and it could not be restarted until the core circle was cleared out. Even if the invading Guild had more members in the core circle, it still wouldnât matter. Hence, for those seeking to occupy a resurrection camp, it was crucial they be the first to occupy it.
Currently, their task was to chase away any Holy Race player who managed to enter the resurrection campâs core circle. If they had to limit their movements to within 100 yards of Shi Fengâs team, they would have difficulty exhibiting their strength.
Just as Shi Feng was about to explain his decision, several of the Dark-Gold Combat Puppets stationed along the resurrection campâs perimeter suddenly went on alert as numerous red dots appeared on their 20,000-yard warning map.
These red dots came in different sizes. The greater the size, the greater the targetâs energy levels, the greater the targetâs strength, and the greater the threat the target would pose to the Combat Puppet.
âI got 1,043 high-energy alerts!â
âThe Holy Raceâs army is here! Estimates show at least 1,043 Tier 6 experts!â
