Chapter 1073 596: Demon Lord Approached Twilight City [1/3]
Richard limited his impression of demons to the previous few confrontations.
It was not until something else happened that he intuitively felt why the Bottomless Abyss was so terrifying in the Mortal Plane, although he was extra wary of demons.
Vale sent news about the gathering of a million demons or more in front of Solan City on September 12th. These troops attacked the most mighty cities on the edge of the desert of death.
The demon troop had even invaded Solan City several times despite tight security. That was even more shocking.
Solan City still suffered significant losses even though they reacted quickly and dispatched several troops to suppress them.
Richard was on high alert.
Millions of lord players joined forces with the troops but could not break through! That wasn't an exaggeration. That was the defense level of Solan City.
However, just a million demons tore through their defense line. That showed how strong their combat power was.
Vale also reported the spread of troops throughout Solan City like a virus apart from that vital news. They swept across the desert of death.
These chaotic and evil lifeforms corroded everything.
The scouts scattered around Twilight City in just three days on September 15th. They sent a warning message. They found traces of demons.
Richard received the news and immediately dispatched 2,000 stone statues of the dead to clear out all demons within 200 kilometers.
He gave the order, and the Twilight City troops moved out and quickly cleared out the demons.
However, several demons approached Twilight City as time passed. That gradually overwhelmed the 20 squadrons of stone statues of the dead.
Richard realized this and tripled his hunters. He allowed sixty squadrons of stone statues of the dead to participate in the hunt.
One can find Twilight Cit in the desert of death. Demos carried pressure, and the soldier could feel aside from the players of the Mortal Plane.
A situation cast a psychological shadow over everyone on September 20th. The Ninth Hell opened the door to the Main Plane.
The Devil Lord commanded the troops and attacked the Mortal Plane in a high-profile manner.
They attacked cities and seized territories.
The organized demons with higher chances of victory posed a threat than the chaotic demons.
The abominations appeared simultaneously when the Death Plane tore space. That was even more shocking.
Innumerable skeleton troops covered the sky as they approached.
Three extremely evil places that made the world tremble appeared simultaneously. That shook the world.
Demons, devils, and undead tortured countless players.
Several players had even given up on the territories they had managed with great difficulty and entered the largest native city nearby. They relied on the strength of the natives to withstand the storm.
It was human nature to stay together for warmth.
Someone started, and more people immediately followed suit.
Several astute players discovered that Foreign Planes miraculously escaped invasion. Only a few were in danger.
The players that rejected the aid of the natives packed their weapons and retreated to the Foreign Plane.
A multitude of players wanted to stay in Ell to avoid the storm. They even received various applications.
Richard wasn't interested and only accepted a few of the members of the Ell Players Association. The rest would have to pay a high-security deposit to enter. But Richard would still subject them to some restrictions.
But even so, there was still a vast influx of people with Qingqiu.
Many players even handed their troops over to Mountain Range City. They were willing to become Richard's subordinates.
The players' actions startled Richard a little.
He pondered and had some ideas.
He could accept these players since Ell's Players Association was already there.
He would take those who underwent screening in. The screening detected spies.
Richard settled the players down in a city near Mountain Range. These players were willing to become his subordinates.
Several players spread the news. They had no choice but to join Richard.
Richard raised the bar repeatedly. He controlled the surging numbers.
Even so, in just a week, he had more than a million players under his command.
It was even more exaggerated than any top-tier guild.
Richard didn't expect to gain the support of several players. No one noticed about it.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But he also established the Twilight Guild.
This newly established guild had directly become a top-tier guild.
He made Twilight Guild public. The leaders of the other top guilds fell silent.
They had worked so hard for so long, but they had never thought that Richard could recruit millions of people just by opening the door!
"How the f*ck was he supposed to play?"
"We're all players. Why are you breaking the rules? It was unfair!"
The guild leaders, who were already very confident with their tens of thousands of guild members, had now received a heavy blow.
The players wanted to learn from Richard and recruit wantonly during such turmoil. Only a few responded. That startled several players.
Only a few could occupy an entire plane.
Many were even attached to the native cities. It would be difficult for them to protect themselves, let alone the guild members.
Why didn't they rely on the natives since that was the case? Why did they have to be the middleman to earn the difference?
