Chapter 301 Fangs
The main force of Devouring Serpents definitely wouldn't make it in time.
The main force of the Guild of Aether Wing is also completely blocked on the outskirts of Silverleaf Forest and can't get in at all.
According to Eric's understanding, there are over three thousand members of the Darkstar Guild participating in the encirclement, and almost all of the Darkstar Guild's elite are among these three thousand. The six thousand members blocking the outside are just regular troops.
If the Guild of Aether Wing doesn't take any action and the stalemate continues, they might be attacked from both sides by the Darkstar Guild and the Supremacy Alliance and be completely wiped out.
"Rosewater, is there any chance you can break through?" Eric contacted Rosewater and asked.
"With our current manpower, it's definitely not enough. However, I've already mentioned this in the guild channel, and more and more guild members are heading this way. In about half an hour, we can gather three thousand people. Our guild members' equipment and levels are significantly higher than those of Darkstar Guild. Once we gather three thousand people, we can break through." Rosewater was very confident in the guild's combat power.
Although the Guild of Aether Wing has far fewer members than Darkstar Guild, which seems to have over thirty thousand members, the number of elite players in both guilds is not much different.
Among the thirty thousand members of Darkstar Guild, over ten thousand are new players around level 10, and there are only about six thousand elite players above level 16. On the other hand, although the Guild of Aether Wing has recruited fewer people, with just over five thousand members, nearly four thousand of them are elite players above level 16.
If other guilds knew about the high quality of the Guild of Aether Wing's players, they would be very surprised. This is also why Rosewater has always been optimistic about the future of the Guild of Aether Wing.
As long as the Guild of Aether Wing gathers three thousand people, it can handle the six thousand players with generally lower levels.
However, they are still not a match for a full-scale war with Darkstar Guild, as there is still a significant gap in the number of elite players. Not to mention the over ten thousand regular players, who, even if not very strong, can still wear down many elites through sheer numbers.
"I understand. Isabella is being sniped by the Supremacy Alliance. They want to stop Isabella and her team from coming over. You don't need to break through Silverleaf Forest. Turn around and join forces to attack Supremacy Alliance, and drive them out of Silvervale City," Eric said after some thought.
Eric's words immediately shocked Rosewater, leaving him stunned for a long time.
"Guild Master, we are supposed to be rescuing people. Starting a war with the Supremacy Alliance now might not be a good idea," Rosewater said worriedly.
Supremacy Alliance is a top-tier guild. Although their main members are not in Eldoria, they should not be underestimated. Just like Devouring Serpents, whose main force is not in Silvervale City, yet they are still the number one guild in Silvervale City. Similarly, Supremacy Alliance is still one of the top six guilds in Silvervale City.
If we go and kill Supremacy Alliance members now, it would be tantamount to declaring war on the Supremacy Alliance.
Facing Darkstar Guild is already troublesome enough. If we also have to face one of the top six guilds in Silvervale City, how can the Guild of Aether Wing survive in Silvervale City?
"Just go. Remember, once you get there, use the guild's war blockade to prevent all Supremacy Alliance members from using return scrolls to leave the area. Make sure to wipe out all Supremacy Alliance members. Let them know that trying to take advantage of the Guild of Aether Wing comes with a heavy price," Eric said with a murderous tone.
Eric advocates for low-key and secretive development, but that doesn't mean welcoming attackers with a smile.
Whether it's Darkstar Guild or Supremacy Alliance, if they really think the Guild of Aether Wing is weak and easy to bully, they will have to pay a heavy price.
"But what about FlameDancer and the others? The remaining fifty or so members there are the elite of our guild, and they are currently marked as red names. If they die, it would be a huge loss for our guild," Rosewater could hear the anger and killing intent in Eric's voice, but still expressed his concern.
"I will go and rescue FlameDancer and the others," Eric replied with absolute confidence.
"Alright, but as the guild master of the Guild of Aether Wing, you should say something to the guild members. Although you didn't make a statement after the war with Darkstar Guild started and no one said anything, now that we're also going to war with Supremacy Alliance, you need to say something," Rosewater sighed and stopped pressing the issue.
After the war with Darkstar Guild began, the entire Guild of Aether Wing was filled with excitement and a desire for revenge. Many members were saying in the guild channel that they wanted to take down Darkstar Guild and show them the strength of the Guild of Aether Wing. However, as the battle grew more intense and more members died, the morale of the Guild of Aether Wing began to drop.
Because they had been fighting for so long without breaking through the entrance of Silverleaf Forest, and more and more elite members of the Guild of Aether Wing were dying inside Silverleaf Forest, their morale naturally weakened.
By now, the members had little motivation left, let alone to go and attack the Supremacy Alliance.
Eric understood Rosewater's concerns, but instead of speaking in the guild channel, he did something even more decisive. He directly posted on the official forum.
"Darkstar Guild, today you dared to send over ten thousand members to encircle and hunt down a few hundred of our Guild of Aether Wing members. Guild of Aether Wing will repay you a hundredfold. Even if we fight to the last man, we will slaughter your thirty thousand members in return!"
The name Black Flame was already well-known throughout Eldoria, as the chief Blacksmith of Eldoria and the Guild of Aether Wing was the first guild to have a guild residence. Many players knew about it.
As soon as the post was published, it immediately caught the attention of players across Eldoria.
"Damn, this is going to be an all-out war."
"Support Guild of Aether Wing! They are really strong. Darkstar Guild had to send over ten thousand members to encircle and kill just a few hundred of them."
"Does anyone know the outcome?"
"I heard that out of the few hundred Guild of Aether Wing members being encircled, over three hundred died, and dozens are still being hunted. However, Darkstar Guild lost over a thousand members. Now, all the players in Silvervale City are talking about this."
"That's intense! A few hundred members facing over ten thousand from Darkstar Guild and still managed to kill over a thousand and have dozens escape. I want to join the Guild of Aether Wing and become a top player."
"I despise Darkstar Guild. Bullying with numbers. If they have the guts, they should set up a duel with Aether Wing. What's the point of having more people?"
"I was one of the Guild of Aether Wing members being encircled. You have no idea how fierce our guild's FlameDancer and Tonny were. FlameDancer moved through thousands of enemies, killing over a hundred. Tonny cast a spell that instantly wiped out hundreds of Darkstar Guild members. I have a video of it, which you can watch on our Guild of Aether Wing's official forum."
After Eric posted, the entire forum exploded. Some new players who had just started playing Divine Realms: Legends also began to pay attention to the Guild of Aether Wing, especially after seeing the large-scale battles.
The battle scenes in movies paled in comparison, especially when several beams of starlight fell on the battlefield, causing hundreds of people to be obliterated in an instant. It left people in awe, their blood boiling, and their hair standing on end.
Seeing this video made many players even more eager to join the Guild of Aether Wing.
