Path number 1, the path which had the five generals of the Dragons of Justice and the path in which they were supposed to get a sure-shot victory, was now in complete and utter chaos.
The strongest division of the Dragons couldn't push past the granny and the few players behind her. Of course, they would have been more frustrated about this development if not for the fact that they counted themselves extremely lucky.
The damned granny and most of the troops were low-level players. Otherwise, by now… everyone shuddered to think about the consequences. It would have been a complete massacre. They would have one-shotted their side.
But thankfully that was not the case. At least in this scenario, they were able to handle them. And thanks to this big flaw, there was also a small chance for them to win, just a small chance.
"Mustafa, ask the other back up team to get to this path!" Rowen shouted.
He gritted his teeth while engaging in a one-sided combat with a girl who looked like she was barely twenty years old, but how the hell was she fighting like this?
This woman was none other than Ning Xi. She grinned as she finished the fight by jabbing at the exposed vital point on the man's cracked belt multiple times.
<Ding. You have gained 2000 experience points>
<Ding. You have leveled up>
Ning Xi found that she had completely recovered after the level up notification. She was once again bursting with energy and vitality.
"Gosh! I love this game!" She excitedly punched her fist onto her palm a few times and spotted her next target as she ran towards them.
On the side, Mustafa and the other three generals had a grim expression on their face. They watched the young girl run around like she was playing the game on easy mode and suddenly a frightening thought popped up in their head.
Can players gain experience points here?
Normally during PVP one cannot gain experience points so no one had thought about it but just now that was unmistakeable a glow of someone leveling up.
This meant that while these players were currently low-leveled, the more the battle prolonged, they were slowly going to gain strength and momentum!
In the end, their army was going to become a stepping stone for these players, a fast and effective method to level up.
How did they overlook something so significant?
No, it wasn't them who had overlooked. They did not know this because their side had barely killed anyone yet. The other party would have already been aware but why will they shout their secrets out?
They could only blame their own weakness for not finding about this sooner. Mustafa instantly made a snap decision. Rowen had commanded him to get the other back up to this path but he decided to not do it.
Right now, the war was at a crucial point. They weren't able to establish their dominance on three of the five paths and their guild leader had died.
And in all honesty, he knew that these players in front of him were not someone they could defeat. Perhaps if they took out the support unit at the back, providing healing and long-range damage they had a chance but that was easier said than done.
The best they could do in this path was force this fight to come to a stand still. That being the situation, the back up here would be wasted.
And the war also would be eventually lost.
They had made so many efforts, spent so many resources, even signing contracts with other guilds that weren't all that beneficial to them but only to lose so badly like this?
Mustafa gritted his teeth. They might have lost three paths but this war was far from over. They still had another trump card which Crimson Abyss would never see coming and this was going to clinch them this victory.
And for that, he needed to send the backup to that team.
"Everyone! Hold on! If you feel your health dropping, retreat. Try not to die. We don't have to defeat them here. We need to hold this path down."
Mustafa commanded in the guild chat and then hurriedly looked for any information on what was happening on the last two paths. He only had so much time because he sensed a sharp gaze on him and it was none other than the granny.
"Fuck!"
Back at the Gresh Kingdom everyone else was also going equally crazy.
Before the war, it looked like only Dragons of Justice had made all the preparations and were going to come out on top of things but now everyone could see that Crimson Abyss was unshakeable with or without Liam.
"Who the heck is that granny? I have never seen or heard of any experts like this?"
"Fuck! Maybe I should ask my grandmother to also log into the game? Do you think the game has special buffs for these old coots?"
"Yes! Yes! I think some loophole like that is there. I am also going to ask my grandmother to log in!"
"Look! The granny and her team are actually holding back the guild leader's personal division."
"Wow! Crimson Abyss seems like they only brought a handful of players from the guild for this battle, but they are still pulling through. This is unbelievable."
"Haven't you heard? They only brought inner members of the guild who signed that ridiculous guild contract. A friend of mine is an outer member and they didn't have permission to join the battle."
By now more information about the ongoing guild war had spread among the player base, but no one dared to jump to a quick conclusion like before.
One side seemed to have an endless supply of players while the other side barely had about ten thousand. However, the mere ten thousand were holding back the entire army casually.
With three paths already at a dead end, all the players both inside and outside the battleground curiously looked at the last two paths. Whatever happened in the war would be determined by these two paths.
Particularly, the remaining four generals of the Dragons of Justice eagerly waited for the updates but something was wrong. No one from path 2 was responding.
What was wrong now? What was happening in path 2? Did Crimson Abyss prepare something for this as well? Everyone's heart dropped as they felt very anxious.
However, unlike the players in the battleground, the audience already knew the answer to this. But their expression was equally pained. Almost no one could believe what they were seeing.
On path 2, Crimson Abyss had completely shattered everyone's expectations. Standing majestically in front of everyone was six big armored war tanks.
