"Hey! Something big is going down. Look over there. The PVP tower is shaking again."
"That old man also stopped attacking it."
All the players gathered around the PVP tower and looked up to see the old man stop mid-air with a big grin on his face. In front of him, the PVP tower was shaking violently as if only that one spot was under an earthquake.
Just as everyone looked at the tower curiously, suddenly something completely unexpected happened. The entire tower disappeared!
The PVP tower, a huge landmark in Yleka city, entirely vanished! No one was able to believe what they were seeing. How could a big construction like that go poof?
More importantly, in the place of the tower, there was a single person lying on the ground unconsciously.
There were no clothes or items on his body except for a set of badly torn pants, and beside him, there was a ragged-looking sword and a small fox.
Though the sword seemed extremely ordinary, the fox was very eye-catching. The small beast had three tails and was also severely injured. It would be very easy to grab the beast right now.
Everyone's eyes glistened with greed. However, before anyone could make a move, a familiar huge white tiger and a bat landed near the person.
"Stay back." A woman shouted as she climbed down from the tiger. It was Mia. Behind her, Shen Yue and Mei Mei also stepped down.
Seeing these three beauties, some players stopped, but many others had no intention of listening to them. It was fine, even if they were punished for fighting inside the city. Anything that could be gained from the top player would be worth it.
The crowd started rushing in madly. Seeing this, Mia, Shen Yue, and Mei Mei stood firmly surrounding Liam.
It would not be possible for just the three of them to defend against these many players, and the other crimson abyss members were tracking the three mysterious players. They won't be able to return in time to protect Liam.
No one had expected the huge tower to disappear abruptly. They weren't prepared for this. Liam's condition also seemed to be extremely bad. Just what the hell happened inside the tower?
Mia slammed her staff on the ground, starting to cast spells at the first line of attackers. She stared at the greedy mob resolutely. They were not going to get past her today, no matter what.
However, the top experts from the other guilds in the Kingdom also had the same determined expression. Everyone was riled up from the power display of Crimson Abyss.
Seeing Mia, it wasn't difficult to guess that it was Liam, the top ranker lying on the ground defenselessly. That too, only he had been inside the tower. So it was definitely him.
How could they let this chance slip by? The two sides were ready to clash with the same ferocity. Shen Yue also had her daggers out, and Mei Mei started casting several buffs waving her staff.
Just as this huge brawl was about to ensue and send the whole of the Yleka city into a messy riot, suddenly something loud resounded. The few players at the front rushing forward were instantly pushed back.
When everyone looked up, they saw an old man in front of them. "Hrmm." He grunted loudly and eyed the surrounding crowd with menacing eyes. "Who wants to come forward?"
He gave Mia a look, and she nodded dazedly. Why was this person helping them? That was not important right now.
Behind her, Shen Yue and Mei Mei hurriedly lifted Liam and placed him on the bat, the two of them also getting on top. The bat then started flying off into the air instantly. Mia as well grabbed Luna and the sword and hurriedly followed them.
The group took off immediately, everything happening lightning fast. Only after they left did the players standing around snap back into reality.
No one had the guts to fight the old man. They saw him smiling and watching the group escaping peacefully, and they started silently dispersing.
They moved out of that area and then hurriedly jumped onto any mount they could get a hold of. "Follow them. Quick. Quick."
Droves of players started chasing the two beasts flying away at top speed.
"Sis Mia, I am casting some buffs on the two." Mei Mei anxiously kept looking back. Liam's condition still seemed bad, and the next trouble was already at their doorstep.
"We only need to reach the guild residence," Mia said. "Then everything will be fine."
This chase continued, and combined with Mei Mei's speed buffs, the trio maneuvered in between the tall trees and mountains and managed to give the slip to the group behind them.
"There! Right there! We are almost at the guild residence!" Mei Mei shouted. She cast a few more buffs, and in one last rush, the two mounts flew into the guild residence in time.
Once inside, Mia, Shen Yue, and Mei Mei floated on their mounts and looked at the players following them.
They hoped that they would turn back since they were in their base right now, but the players outside had no such thoughts. The numerous players barged into the compound and the guards at the gate.
Almost immediately, Mia shouted and sent out guild announcements. "WE ARE UNDER ATTACK! CRIMSON ABYSS, GATHER!"
Horns started sounding, and all the NPC guards rushed forward. The situation looked dire as most of the guilds in the Gresh Kingdom had right now gathered around the guild residence.
They had seen Liam picking up loot after loot and the numerous treasures on the Crimson Abyss players. These were items that the other players couldn't even dare to dream of, and now it was right in front of them.
All the guild leaders looked at each other and unanimously made a decision. They all had their own enmities between them, but Crimson Abyss was the bigger threat.
Today Crimson Abyss was going down!
While Liam was still unconscious, they absolutely had to destroy this guild!
