Chapter 216 Beyond Imagination
Meanwhile, in the Orgrim Forgeworks.
"RogueVortex, we've been wiped out four times and lost 20% of our experience points. If we continue this, we might not even be eligible for a dungeon. How about we give up?"
"Alright, let's take a break, and then we'll go to the 10-man dungeon to gear up."
RogueVortex seemed a bit down at this point. They had tried every method, but ultimately, it was a lack of DPS. He had been so confident before, but now he felt a bit reckless.
'Fortunately, the people from Assassin's Alliance couldn't get through either, or I'll have been utterly humiliated,' he thought.
While the members of Darkstar Guild were resting.
Suddenly, two system announcements from Assassin's Alliance rang in everyone's ears.
At that moment, the members of Darkstar Guild thought they had misheard, so they all pulled up the system announcement panel. The big words were exceptionally clear. Assassin's Alliance had indeed achieved the first clear of Adversity-level Orgrim Forgeworks, leaving everyone in silence.
Why was there such a big gap between the two groups? Weren't they stronger than Assassin's Alliance?
How could they not even get past the first boss, while Assassin's Alliance got the first clear?
Seeing this, RogueVortex felt as if he had been slapped hard in the face, his cheeks burning with pain, especially when he remembered what Eric had said before.
Eric once said, "If the noobs you look down on suddenly get the first clear of Adversity-level Orgrim Forgeworks before you, what does that make you? Are you even worse than animals?"
These words now turned into sharp swords, constantly tearing at RogueVortex's self-esteem as he never thought something like this would happen.
But RogueVortex wasn't stupid; he didn't think Assassin's Alliance could get through on their own. The only possibility was that Eric was behind this.
Who exactly was this Eric?
It wasn't just the people of Darkstar Guild who were shocked. When the announcement appeared throughout the Silvercrest Dominion, it caught the attention of many guilds.
Assassin's Alliance's status in Silvervale City was undeniable, with a growth rate surpassing top-tier guilds. However, they were overshadowed by Darkstar Guild's fame and had no notable achievements in team dungeons, which was quite embarrassing.
Now, with the first clear of Adversity-level Orgrim Forgeworks, their fame skyrocketed, making Assassin's Alliance truly deserving of their reputation. Their subsequent development would undoubtedly be faster.
Meanwhile, the Adventurers' Guild in Silvervale City.
"Lucas, Assassin's Alliance got the first clear of Adversity-level Orgrim Forgeworks," Bob suddenly burst into the guild hall of ShadowForge Studios, looking delighted.
In Divine Realms, as long as a guild was registered with the Adventurers' Guild, each major city's Adventurers' Guild would provide a free lounge for guilds to hold meetings, rest, and take on quests.
"Why are you shouting? Whoelse doesn't know about this?" David, sitting in a corner of the lounge, gave Bob a sidelong glance.
"Of course I know, but there's more to it." Bob glanced at David and then shifted his gaze to Lucas, who was sitting on the guild leader's throne.
More to it?
"What's that?" This piqued Lucas's interest, who had been indifferent.
The last time Bob reported on recruiting Eric, Lucas almost jumped out of his seat in anger.
The requirement to join ShadowForge Studios was to become the guild leader. Bob thought Erid didn't take him seriously at all.
Beside, Eric also demanded 60% of the guild's shares in one go.
And the most surprising thing was that Bob actually suggested recruiting Eric.
So Bob wasn't in Lucas's good graces either and that was why he felt a lot of pressure. He had faced a lot of cold stares from other guild members.
"Lucas, look at the first clear list of Assassin's Alliance. Kai Blackthorn's name is on it," Bob said excitedly, pointing at the first clear list of Assassin's Alliance on the system panel.
"So?" David sneered. If Eric really joined ShadowForge Studios, then he wouldn't need to stay here anymore.
"Assassin's Alliance is a second-tier guild. Why would they let an outsider join when they're clearing Orgrim Forgeworks? They hadn't gotten a single first clear of a 10-man raid for so long, and now they suddenly got the first clear of a 20-man Adversity-level raid. Why?"
"This definitely has something to do with Kai Blackthorn. In the past,he had a close relationship with Assassin's Alliance. Originally, Assassin's Alliance was just a second-tier guild, but after arriving in Silvervale City, they grew rapidly, even surpassing many top-tier guilds. Why?"
"Eric was the first to enter Silvervale City. His guide to Silvervale City sold like hotcakes. It's very likely that he sold the guide to Assassin's Alliance in advance, which allowed them to be well-prepared and develop rapidly as soon as they entered Silvervale City."
"Now he has helped Assassin's Alliance get the first clear. In terms of reputation and foundation, they are now at the forefront of Silvervale City, surpassing many top-tier guilds. This alone proves his capabilities. If he could join our ShadowForge Studios, within a month, we would definitely have a place in Silvervale City."
Bob had thoroughly investigated Eric. The more he looked, the more shocked he became. The more he analyzed, the more terrified he felt. Eric's prowess was beyond his imagination, which made him even more determined to latch onto Eric's coattails.
By then, Lucas and Jason would have no place in Silvervale City.
"Don't even think about it. If you dare to mention him again, or talk to Jack about this, don't blame me for being rude," Lucas's face turned dark, his tone filled with menace. "Eric is just a clown. Assassin's Alliance is a deeply rooted, top-tier second-tier guild. Guild leader WhisperbladeWraith has been famous for a long time. He single-handedly developed Assassin's Alliance to its current state. Achieving such results is normal. That Eric can't have played a major role."
Then he added, "In my opinion, his role was at most a friendly participant."
Being scolded by Lucas, Bob showed a fearful expression and quickly nodded, saying, "Yes, I understand, Lucas. I won't bring it up again."
However, Bob was laughing inside.
Because he was even more certain of Eric's strength, as Lucas already felt a significant threat. Otherwise, why would he say such things?
In fact, Bob had already talked to Jack about these things, so Jack had him secretly contact Eric.
Once he achieved something in Divine Realms Legends, he was sure he would make a lot of money.
With a lot of wealth, would he still worry about Katherine not falling into his arms? Would her family still not agree?
While everyone was discussing Assassin's Alliance's first clear, Eric had already donned four pieces of the Galestorm Outfit and arrived at the Silvervale City Library.
Compared to the shabby little house in Willowbrook Town, the Silvervale City Library was a true library. Not only was it grand and magnificent, but it also looked like a Babylonian temple, located in the center of Silvervale City.
The people entering and leaving the library were all nobles and magic-class NPCs from Silvervale City, including many second-tier professionals. It wasn't a place commoners could casually visit.
And the third-tier Divine Officiant Sharon, whom Eric was looking for, was recuperating inside.
