Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 431 431-Discussion on the Game Forum

Even though the battle of Storm City had concluded, its repercussions continued to resonate, impacting many aspects of the game world.

On the game forum, countless players were engaged in discussions about the battle in Storm City.

Naturally, the focus of these discussions revolved around John, the anonymous player.

The top-pinned post on the forum provided a detailed analysis of the prowess John displayed during the battle.

The author of the post posited that John's strength could be comparable to that of a Demigod.

[In the battle at Storm City's walls, the anonymous player used at least six Divine Skills.

Besides these Divine Skills, he also employed at least four different types of divine scrolls.

A player with access to so many Divine Skills and divine scrolls must be among the very best.

Thus, I reasonably conjecture that the anonymous player in the battle is the same anonymous player who ranks first on the player leaderboard.

As to whether all anonymous players are actually the same person, I cannot be certain.

We can only know that at least one anonymous player is incredibly powerful.

His strength is at least on par with the non-deity leaders of the major factions.]

The forum post's compelling argument made it the most discussed topic on the game forum.

In the comments section below the post, many players were debating why the anonymous player chose to remain anonymous.

[I really don't understand why they choose to remain anonymous. If they are truly as powerful as it seems, they could reveal their ID to all players. That way, they could reap many benefits. I'm sure many guilds would want to recruit such a strong player into their ranks.]

[Absolutely! If our guild had such a powerhouse, we could become one of the top ten guilds. Our guild leader would surely offer all our guild's resources to this anonymous player.]

[The two of you above, don't be so vain. Even if your guilds are willing to offer all their resources, it doesn't mean the anonymous player would join. After all, your guilds' resources aren't that substantial. If the anonymous player wanted to join another guild, they would likely choose one of the top ten.] a third player reasoned.

[Maybe they don't join a guild because they prefer being a solo player? I remember there have been such individuals in other games. They don't want to be restricted by a guild and believe they can become the strongest players through their own efforts.]

[That's a valid point. I also know some friends like that, but their abilities are only slightly better than ours. They're nowhere near as powerful as the anonymous player in Godslayer.]

While the players on the game forum didn't have access to a wealth of information, there were some insightful individuals among them who managed to make educated guesses about why John chose to conceal his identity.

These players pieced together various bits of information to form plausible theories.

Other forum posts focused on analyzing the comparative strengths of Arsena, the Duke of Storm City, and John during the battle.

The consensus was that John displayed greater combat prowess than Arsena, a topic that sparked much debate and admiration.

However, despite the abundant discussions on the forum about the battle in Storm City, they often circled around without reaching any concrete conclusions.

This was primarily because those who were truly knowledgeable about the intricacies of the situation were unlikely to openly discuss it on a public forum.

Meanwhile, within the Darklord Guild, Darklord was in deep discussion with his guild's stronger members about their next steps.

Initially, Darklord had believed there was ample time to relocate his guild from Storm City.

However, after witnessing the battle between Mystery Vanguard, John, and Arsena, he realized that time was running out.

Darklord speculated that John might have already informed Arsena about his collaboration with the Mystery forces.

As a member of the Order Faction, Arsena would undoubtedly take immediate action upon learning of such an alliance, posing a significant threat to Darklord's plans and the safety of his guild.

This realization spurred a sense of urgency in Darklord to strategize and act swiftly.

"Have you all reached a decision yet? Where do you think we should relocate our guild's headquarters to?"

Darklord, finally deciding to not dwell on his worries, redirected his attention to the ongoing discussion among his guild members.

"Guild leader, what about relocating to Karen Port? Although it doesn't have many players, this could ensure we won't be targeted by other guilds. Surely no other guilds would be interested in competing for Karen Port, right?"

The vice guild leader of Darklord Guild suggested, sharing his thoughts.

He had chosen Karen Port because of his familiarity with the area, gained from a previous visit with Darklord.

He knew that Karen Port had almost no players and very few NPCs.

If they moved their headquarters there, it seemed unlikely that other guilds would continue to challenge them with Guild Battles.

As soon as Karen Port was mentioned, Darklord's expression shifted dramatically.

Previously, he might have reacted harshly to his vice guild leader's suggestion, possibly even with physical aggression.

However, after the experiences and realizations during the recent Guild Battle, Darklord acknowledged that, despite any incompetence, his vice guild leader was undoubtedly loyal.

"Moving our guild to Karen Port, how would our members level up and gather resources? You've been there with me; you know the area around Karen Port lacks zones for leveling and resource collection," Darklord pointed out calmly, explaining why Karen Port wasn't a viable option for their new headquarters.

The vice guild leader, initially apprehensive about Darklord's reaction, relaxed a bit after seeing that he wasn't angry.

Other members of the Darklord Guild subsequently proposed several potential locations for their new headquarters.

However, Darklord found each of these suggestions unsuitable for various reasons.

Eventually, Darklord's frustration boiled over.

"You are all useless! Can't even pick a new location for our guild headquarters! If you were to face another attack from Blue Sea Guild, would you all just run away?"

His disappointment in his guild members was palpable.

He felt he couldn't rely on them at all.

Faced with Darklord's outburst, all the guild members remained silent.

After a while, one member cautiously stood up and spoke in a low voice.

"Guild leader, perhaps we should consider relocating our headquarters to Dark Realm. In Dark Realm, we wouldn't be targeted by Blue Sea Guild, right?"

The one who made this suggestion was DARK EDGE, who harbored a deep grudge against John.

Darklord glanced at DARK EDGE, who met his gaze without any sign of fear.

Darklord pondered over DARK EDGE's suggestion, considering its implications.

Although he had collaborated with the forces of Mystery, he was reluctant to associate too closely with the Dark Faction.

"Do you not realize that Dark Realm is under the control of the Dark Faction? If we move our headquarters there, we'll be disowned by the Order Faction," Darklord finally remarked coldly after a moment of thought.

DARK EDGE seemed to have anticipated Darklord's response.

He nodded and then shared his perspective, "Guild leader, you're absolutely right. Moving our headquarters to the Dark Realm would indeed turn the Order Faction against us. However, given our current situation, we're already at odds with several powerful guilds, including the Blue Sea Guild. Our position in the Order Faction is precarious at best. Perhaps it's time to consider aligning with a faction that can offer us more direct protection and support. The Dark Realm might pose risks, but it also provides a strategic advantage and a safe haven against our current enemies."

DARK EDGE's bold suggestion to collaborate with the Dark Faction and utilize the power of Devils from the Dark Realm to overpower Blue Sea Guild and even control an Order Faction city left everyone in the room stunned.

His proposition marked a significant departure from their current strategy and alignment, suggesting a deeper dive into alliances with darker forces.

This idea highlighted the extent of desperation and ambition within Darklord Guild.

Faced with overwhelming odds and dwindling options, they were now considering extreme measures that would fundamentally alter their position within the game's universe.

However, Darklord, after carefully listening to DARK EDGE, decided to take a more cautious approach.

Standing up slowly, he made his decision known, "For now, let's relocate our headquarters to Iceburg Castle in the north. As for DARK EDGE's suggestions, let's pretend we didn't hear them."
