[Dark Night Spirit City]
Within the enormous undead capital, the battle between the players of the five major guilds was in full swing.
Paladins and Demon Knights raised their shields and charged forward, opening up a defensive line for their teammates.
Under the buff from the ultimate skill Bloodthirsty Berserk, Berserker players were covered in fiery effects as they engaged the enemy Sword-and-Shield Warriors in close combat.
Sparks flew everywhere, with flashes of blades and swords.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Soul Archers' Fire Arrows, Ice Arrows and Elemental Mages' Fireballs, Hurricanes, all rained down onto the battlefield.
A dazzling array of skill effects lit up the entire battlefield.
Assassin and Rogue players darted through the flames.
Wherever there were enemies with low HP, there they were.
Even though they didn't have the kind of overwhelming crowd-control power that could instantly kill everything under the sun like the protagonist of a novel, even minor characters had their own moments to shine.

[South City]
Slash!
As Wang Junjie, the fifth-ranked Sword-and-Shield Warrior on the Heaven Ranking, swung his sword down, an A-rank Sweeping the Thousand Armies knocked down all five Genesis Warrior and Knight players in front of him at once.
Standing amid the white lights shooting into the sky, Wang Junjie carried his greatsword and looked extremely pleased with himself, "Not a single one of them can fight!"
"Looks like I'm still too damn strong!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of shouts suddenly rang out around him.
"That guy wearing the red helmet is Wang Junjie!"
"Brother Kai has ordered! One million in bounty for whoever kills Wang Junjie!"
"Brothers, kill!"
Wang Junjie looked around and realized that he had gotten so carried away killing that he had unknowingly separated from the main force and made his way alone into the heart of the Genesis Guild's territory.
There were Genesis players everywhere around him, without a single ally in sight.
Facing the large group of Genesis players rushing toward him, Wang Junjie was instantly horrified.
He quickly took off his red helmet.
"I'm not Wang Junjie! You've got the wrong guy!"
Genesis players: "The guy with a head growing out of his neck is Wang Junjie! Brothers, kill!"
Wang Junjie's first reaction was to raise his sword in fright, preparing to cut his own neck.
But then he thought about it.
Something was fucking wrong.
"You think you can trick me? Do you take me for an idiot?"
"Fuck!"
"Someone come! Protect me!"
"Protect me!"
Just as a huge group of Genesis Sword-and-Shield Warriors and Berserkers charged at Wang Junjie from all directions, wielding axes and blades, Wang Junjie's butt clenched, and just when he thought he was completely screwed.
Whoosh!
The temperature of the surrounding air suddenly dropped to zero.
Centered on Wang Junjie, an ice barrier formed in midair.
The next second....
Crash!
Countless flakes of ice and snow fell from within the barrier, covering the area around Wang Junjie.
All the Genesis players approaching Wang Junjie were covered in ice and snow.
The instant they were frozen, huge damage numbers that made the players outside question their lives popped up above their heads one after another.
-1,536,972!
-1,524,697!
-1,555,569!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! whoosh!
Countless white lights shot into the sky around Wang Junjie.
When Wang Junjie looked around, he saw that within a fifty-yard radius centered on himself, the entire area had become a frozen wasteland, with not a blade of grass left standing.
Following the terrified gazes of the surrounding Genesis players, Wang Junjie turned around and saw two figures slowly approaching from behind.
[Famous Throughout the World·Liuli] (Lv.80 Third-Job Elemental Mage · Heaven Ranking #1)!
[Supreme Lord·Rulebound] (Lv.79 Third-Job Soul Archer · Heaven Ranking #2)!
At this moment, the more terrified the expressions on the surrounding Genesis players' faces were, the brighter Wang Junjie's smile became.
"Hahahahahaha! You dare hit me!"
"My Brother Mo and sister-in-law are here!"
As he spoke, Wang Junjie put his red helmet back on.
He stuck his butt out toward the Genesis players ahead and said smugly and arrogantly, "Come on, hit me! Come hit me!"
"Let's see which one of you fucking dares to hit me!"
Seeing how obnoxious Wang Junjie looked, the Genesis players gnashed their teeth.
"Damn! He's so fucking annoying!"
"I really want to beat him to death!"
"Calm down! Brothers, stay calm! The number one and number two players on the Heaven Ranking are right behind him! Don't act recklessly!"
"Damn! Wang Junjie is really fucking abusing his connections!"
With Lin Mo and Ning Xi right behind him, Wang Junjie put his hands on his hips and looked extremely smug, "Hahahahaha! I just love seeing you guys hate my guts but can't do a damn thing about me!"
"It's the Genesis Guild again," Ning Xi looked at the Genesis players scattered all around them, her brows slightly furrowed, "Last time in the Dark Dungeon, they were the ones who helped Nether and Frost Dance open the door."
"And now they're here again."
Lin Mo's gaze turned cold, "Then let's make them disappear from Inferno City completely."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mo took a Magic Scroll out of his bag and crushed it on the spot.
Immediately...
Whoosh!
A golden light burst from Lin Mo's hand and enveloped the entire Dark Night Spirit City.
Immediately afterward, every Divine Nation, Dragon Soul, Blood Dance, and Chaotic World player had a notification panel pop up in front of them.
[Ding~ Player Rulebound has used the SSS-rank Magic Scroll Frenzied Assault·War Stomp. You have been designated as an allied target by Rulebound and gained the following buff: Attack Power +100%, lasting 600 seconds!]
Instantly, a wave of exclamations rang throughout the battlefield.
Blood Dance player: "Holy shit! An SSS-rank Magic Scroll! Boss Rulebound is awesome!"
Divine Nation player: "As expected of the face of our Divine Nation Guild! Vice President Rulebound has such style!"
Dragon Soul player: "Attack Power +100%? We're taking off!"
Wang Junjie: "Holy shit!"
"Fucking awesome!"
"Amazing!"
As the power of the SSS-rank Magic Scroll spread across the entire city, the players of the four major guilds all became fired up.
Only the Genesis players felt their vision go black.
At this moment, they felt as if the sky had fallen.
Originally, Genesis was already hopelessly outnumbered with the four major guilds joining forces.
Now, after Lin Mo's SSS-rank Magic Scroll Frenzied Assault·War Stomp doubled the four major guilds' attack power, killing Genesis players became as easy as killing chickens.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
As Sun Yang struck down Genesis players one after another with his staff, dealing massive damage of fifty to sixty thousand points each time, he couldn't help exclaiming, "The buff from this SSS-rank Magic Scroll is insanely strong."
Lin Miaomiao said with certainty, "Looks like there's no doubt that Lin Mo possesses the ability to evolve SSS-rank Magic Scrolls."
A hint of relief appeared in Ling Xue's beautiful eyes.
Her determination to clear away every obstacle for Lin Mo, do everything in her power to cultivate him, and help him reach even greater heights became even stronger.
Thus, under the comprehensive suppression of the four major guilds' numerical advantage plus doubled attack power, the Genesis players were completely crushed.
More than ninety percent of the white lights lighting up the entire Dark Night Spirit City map came from Genesis.
As for Lin Mo, the SSS-rank Magic Scroll Frenzied Assault·War Stomp increased the attack power of allied targets within a large area by 100%.
As for its effect on himself, the bonus was an astonishing 300%.
Of course, no matter how powerful this effect was, it was only temporary, lasting just ten minutes.
For Lin Mo, what mattered most was its permanent passive increase: Permanent Final Attack Power +1%.
At present, Lin Mo's Final Attack Power buff had already stacked to forty layers, giving him a total 40% Final Attack Power increase.
He had already completed a small portion of the way toward one hundred stacks of attack power.
Lin Mo's target wasn't Genesis.
So, using the players of the four major guilds to clear a path for him, Lin Mo headed straight toward the center of Dark Night Spirit City, approaching the place where Nether, Frost Dance, and the others were.
