Chapter 97: Chapter 97: The Exposure of Attribute Fusion, Attacking Dark Humans



Just as Ada's announcement of establishing a city echoed across the world.

The group of dark elves momentarily halted their actions, their expressions filled with shock.

"Death Land! Someone has actually entered Death Land!" The leader of the dark elves trembled, her breathing quickened as she struggled to contain her excitement.

She coldly commanded, "Find this Ada and reclaim Death Land!"

"Understood!" the other elves responded in unison. Without wasting any time, they abandoned their efforts to hunt monsters and increase their strength, their figures turning into fleeting shadows as they vanished into the forest.

To them, Death Land was a sacred and forbidden place, housing numerous powerful beasts. Reclaiming Death Land would signify the resurgence of the dark elf race.

...

In a desolate desert, a dilapidated city stood, weathered by the harsh sands.

Amidst the howling winds, the sounds of drills and training echoed.

A weary yet resilient army trained in the swirling sands, their armor battered and faces gaunt, but their eyes shone with an unyielding determination.

When the announcement sounded, the leading general froze, staring into the distance as tears glistened in his eyes, barely held back by his stoic expression.

"General, it's the princess! It's Princess Ada!" one soldier choked out, his voice thick with emotion.

"Ada, Gates City, there's no mistaking it!" The soldiers ceased their training, looking to their general, waiting for his command.

The general took a deep breath, his tears evaporating as resolve hardened in his gaze. He raised his weapon high and shouted, "Our hope has returned! For the glory of the Gates Empire!"

"For the glory of the Gates Empire!" the soldiers roared in unison, their voices carried away by the desert winds.

With dust swirling around them, the army mobilized, setting out to find their Princess Ada.

...

Back in Death Land.

John and the women sat around the city altar, waiting for the monster tide to either begin or conclude.

Since Death Land was an enclosed space, John was uncertain whether a monster tide would actually appear.

To be safe, he decided to stay put until the city was successfully established before considering leaving.

Unbeknownst to John, Ada's city had already caused quite a stir across the world.

The beasts that surrounded the altar appeared uneasy, their expressions strange.

The succubus glanced at the altar, then turned to John and said, "Hey, we all received a notification. It says if we destroy the altar, we'll be rewarded with one million experience points, a thousand attribute points, and a hundred skill points."

John was taken aback.

So, destroying the altar during a monster tide would actually yield a reward?

And it's ten times the reward for defending the city.

He turned a questioning look at the succubus, not hiding his suspicion. "You're not thinking of doing something foolish, are you?"

The succubus gave an awkward smile. "I wouldn't dare, but it does seem like an easy way to gain strength quickly. What do you think?"

She looked at John with eyes that gleamed with excitement.

John pondered for a moment. It did seem like a feasible method.

However, when he had sabotaged Toby's attempts to build a city, the beasts hadn't received any rewards.

Perhaps the reward is only triggered under certain conditions: being in a sealed-off space, with no external monster tides, and beasts unable to enter. If these conditions were met, it might be possible to gain those rewards.

The other beasts looked at John with eager anticipation, ready to spring into action.

The altar had no protective measures, and with just a slight blow, they could easily destroy it.

However, none of them dared to make a move without John's permission.

"Stay put and behave," John ordered sternly, glaring at the beasts.

The succubus's suggestion was indeed tempting; with enough City Building Orders, it could be a quick way to enhance the beasts' strength. However, City Building Orders were rare.

John wasn't ready to waste the two he still had.

Judy stood guard in front of the altar, her gaze cold as she watched the other beasts.

This city had been established by Ada, and she wouldn't allow any beast to destroy it.

...

Time passed slowly as they all waited in boredom.

Ping!

A private message alert sounded in John's mind. It was from Ritchie.

Ritchie: "Boss, we've got a problem. The secret about attribute fusion has been exposed. I'm pretty sure it's Toby's doing."

John wasn't surprised by this news.

He had suspected something like this would happen ever since he used all the Attribute Fusion Stones to strengthen the Blues Family members during the attack. He knew it would be hard to keep such a significant development under wraps.

But he hadn't expected Toby to be so cunning, spreading the information so quickly.

John's expression turned serious. He understood the magnitude of the situation.

It wouldn't be long before he and the Blues Family became targets for many powerful

factions in the real world.

The Ancient Martial Arts families were strong, but the allure of attribute fusion was too great

for anyone to resist.

This was not something that could be easily contained.

He reached out to Ritchie for advice.

Godslayer: "Is there a way to divert attention?"

Ritchie: "There is. We could start a war against the Mike White Family."

John was taken aback by the suggestion.

The Mike White Family was a massive force, with influence spanning across numerous countries. Nearly a quarter of the world's power was somehow connected to the Mike White

Family.

Starting a war with them could throw the entire world into chaos.

That something John was not eager to initiate.

While John definitely planned to take action against the Mike White Family, now wasn't the

time.

His strategy involved gradually weakening their influence within the world of Gods first. Once everyone realized the true importance of the world of Gods and began prioritizing the power of the gods, the downfall of the Mike White Family would be less significant.

After a moment of thought, John formulated a plan to handle the situation. Godslayer: "For now, don't make any moves against the Mike White Family. Instead, leak the method for obtaining the Attribute Fusion Stone."

Ritchie: "Boss, are you serious? This might cause even more chaos than starting a war with

the Mike White Family!"

Ritchie was confused. If players began to fuse divine attributes into the real world, it would undoubtedly cause massive upheaval.

Godslayer: "Don't worry. Even if they know the method, they won't be able to get their hands on the Attribute Fusion Stone. This will also hurt the Dark Humans and expose their true nature early, which works in our favor."

Godslayer: "Also, bribe a few members of the Mike White Family-pick those who are weak and insignificant. Help them fuse their attributes and make sure they accidentally reveal it in

the real world."

Ritchie: "Boss, you're really playing dirty. I get it."

John closed the private chat, a cold smile playing on his lips.

If Toby wanted to use others to do his dirty work, then it was time for him to bleed a little

first.

Greed knows no bounds.

The temptation of attribute fusion would certainly drive factions already discontent with the Mike White Family to band together and take action against them.

...

[Announcement: Gates City has successfully withstood the monster tide. The city has been

established.]

[All members receive 100,000 experience points, 100 free attribute points, and 10 skill points.]

...

At that moment, the announcement rang out.

Twelve hours had passed, the monster tide was over, and Gates City had been successfully

established.

Besides the beasts, John, the girls, and the elves all received the system rewards.

A radiant light enveloped the area, and from the altar, a city sprang up.

The city's teleportation point, resurrection point, blacksmith, and potion shop were all

automatically generated by the system.

Of course, the resurrection point was useless to Anna and the others.

They were beings of the Skyline Continent, where death meant true extinction with no chance

of resurrection.

Death Land was a sealed Secret Area, so the teleportation points were non-functional.

However, no one seemed to mind this.

Ada was overjoyed as she looked at the newly built city, feeling immense gratitude toward

John.

Although it was only a level-one city, which was a long way from a kingdom.

But it was a crucial first step. Ada believed that with John's help, she could restore her

kingdom and even unite the entire Skyline Continent.

When that day came, she planned to hand the throne over to John.

...

John was unaware of Ada's thoughts.

The successful establishment of Gates City sparked yet another wave of excitement.

The one most affected by this was Toby.

He had now lost any chance of obtaining the rewards for being among the first three to

establish a city.

All his efforts had been in vain, and he had suffered enormous losses.

This deepened his hatred for John.

"Just you wait, Godslayer. Your downfall is coming soon!" Toby muttered, his expression

dark, filled with anticipation.

"My lord..." At that moment, one of his subordinates rushed in, clearly flustered, and knelt

before him with a thud.

Toby frowned, clearly irritated at being interrupted during his daydreaming.

He turned a cold gaze toward his subordinate and said icily, "Speak. What is it?"

Gasping for breath, the subordinate managed to say, "We just received word-Godslayer has

revealed the secret of attribute fusion!"

"What?" Toby exclaimed, abruptly standing up.

His first thought was that Godslayer was spreading false information, but his curiosity got the

better of him. He barked, "Tell me."

The subordinate swallowed hard and continued, "The Dark Humans' city lord controls a

Secret Area, the Elemental Secret Area. By slaying the elemental golems there, one can obtain

Attribute Fusion Stones. Using these stones, you can fuse divine attributes into the real

world."

"This..." Toby wanted to dismiss the information as a lie, but he found himself momentarily speechless.

He had indeed entered the Elemental Secret Area before, which was under the control of the

Dark Humans' city lord.

He also recalled how, after losing the Elemental Key, the city lord of Green Moon, Dien, had

reacted with intense fury, almost as if he wanted to tear him apart.

"Damn it, why didn't I notice this before?" Toby seethed with anger. Dien had specifically warned him against hunting the elemental golems. At the time, Toby had been curious and had tried to secretly attack them. However, the elemental golems were strange creatures, immune to physical damage, and

within the Secret Area, the magic elements were sealed, making it impossible to harm them.

It seemed that within the Elemental Secret Area, the golems were invincible. He couldn't fathom how Godslayer had managed to deal with them.

"Goddamn you, Godslayer! That was supposed to be my opportunity!" Toby cursed furiously.

He was convinced that if not for Godslayer's interference, he would have been the first to

discover the secret of attribute fusion.

But now, it was too late.

"Green Hill City..." Toby's face twisted into a sinister grin.

The city lord of the Dark Humans had the Elemental Key-so Toby decided he would take it by

force.

Green Hill City was only a level-one city with weak defenses, and players could easily conquer

it now.

Besides, after collaborating with the Dark Humans several times and paying a steep price,

Toby had grown to despise them. They were nothing but leeches, sucking him dry, and he had long harbored a grudge against them.

With a plan forming in his mind, he turned to his subordinate and commanded coldly, "Five

minutes. I want all family forces, anyone above the second tier, to assemble at Green Hill City. We're going to take it."

The subordinate was taken aback by Toby's order. He had assumed the news about the

Attribute Fusion Stone was bogus, but he hadn't expected Toby to believe it.

Not daring to object, he quickly acknowledged the order and hurried out.
