On the walls of the Mad Dragon Guild's fortress, cries of anguish filled the air.

The once bustling defensive line is now sparsely populated, with less than a third of the personnel remaining.

Most people weren't killed and forced to return to the city; they logged off voluntarily.

No one dared to stay any longer.

This place is so eerie.

Mad Dragon, starting over again, slumped on the ground of the command tower, his eyes vacant, muttering something repeatedly.

He completely broke down.

First, the vice president, nicknamed "Mad Dog," was investigated for using a water meter, and then the financial backer, "Fudo Myo-o," had his company suspended from operation.

That guy called "Alien" is like a judge holding a book of life and death; whoever he points to has to die.

This kind of dimensional reduction attack, launched from the real level, is simply impossible to resist.

"President...should we...should we retreat?" a trusted confidant asked in a trembling voice.

"Retreat?" Mad Dragon, Starting Over Again, looked bitter. "Where to retreat to?"

"You think you're safe once you're offline?"

He now understands that the game is the safest place.

At least here, the other side will only kill your character.

But once you log off, you might face the collapse of the entire real world.

Just as everyone was in despair, a sharp voice rang out in the guild channel.

"All of you, stand up straight!"

The speaker was the leader of the guild's chief mage group, whose ID was [Fire Prison Lord].

"The president has fallen, but we haven't!"

He pointed to a high platform behind the fortress, shrouded in a magical shield.

On the high platform, three players dressed in magnificent robes were chanting with their eyes closed. Visible torrents of magic surrounded them, and ominous dark red clouds began to gather in the sky above their heads.

"Our mage guild's final forbidden spell, [Heavenly Fire Meteor], will be completed in three minutes!"

"With this one shot, no matter what kind of alien it is, they'll all be reduced to ashes!"

The voice of the Lord of the Inferno was like a shot of adrenaline, rekindling a glimmer of hope for many players who were on the verge of collapse.

Yup!

They also have forbidden spells!

This is a strategic-level spell that requires the combined efforts of dozens of top mages and the consumption of massive resources to unleash even once!

Its power is enough to instantly wipe out a small map!

"Brothers! Hold on! Just three minutes!"

"For the glory of the guild."

The surviving players, as if grasping at their last straw, raised their weapons again and roared as they charged toward the aliens that were still tirelessly climbing the city walls.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat tragic.

On the high platform, the chanting of the three core mages entered its most crucial stage.

They are [Frozen Throne], [Thunder Fury], and [Arcane Radiance], the three highest DPS turrets in the guild.

The dark red magical clouds grew thicker and thicker, with scorching flames flickering at their center, as if a world-destroying meteor would fall at any moment.

Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the sky.

Just then.

While in a chanting state, the character in [The Frozen Throne], who should have been completely focused, suddenly stiffened.

His voice rang out in the squad voice chat, tinged with confusion.

"That's strange, I think I heard a police siren?"

[Thunder's Fury] immediately responded: "Are you hallucinating? Focus, you're almost there!"

"It's not a hallucination," the only female mage in the group, Arcane Radiance, spoke up, her voice slightly strained. "I heard it too, and the sound is getting closer."

Lord Flame Prison overheard their conversation in the guild channel and immediately rebuked them, "Don't get distracted! Focus! Even if the sky falls, wait until after you've finished casting the forbidden spell!"

The voice just fell.

The voice of [The Frozen Throne] suddenly turned extremely panicked.

"Holy crap! Someone's banging on my door!"

Almost at the same time, Arcane Radiance also screamed.

"My door was kicked open! Ah! Who are you! What do you want?!"

The team voice chat was in complete chaos.

The sounds of banging on the door, shouts, and a woman's screams mingled together.

The last to speak was Thunderfury, his voice filled with incomprehensible fear and absurdity.

"Police? You've got the wrong people! I... I was playing a video game!"

Immediately afterwards, a cold, serious, and emotionless male voice, transmitted clearly through his microphone which was not turned off, reached everyone's ears.

"Police, don't move!"

"Put your hands behind your head and squat down."

"We have received a report with real names alleging that you are involved in organizing a major online gambling operation. Come with us to assist in the investigation!"

"..."

"..."

The voice channel fell silent.

Everyone is stupid.

Online gambling?

Many people in the guild know that [Frozen Throne] and his group are indeed running a shady website in real life, making a fortune from it.

Can……

But how does this relate to battles in the game?

Why did the police break down the door at the very moment they were about to unleash the forbidden spell, as if they were on a stopwatch?

On the high platform, under the gaze of everyone.

The brilliant magical light emanating from the three core mages instantly went out.

The chanting was interrupted.

The dark red cloud above their heads, which held all the hopes of the guild, vanished like a phantom.

The three magnificent mage characters stood there blankly, motionless.

next second.

Several "Alien Raiders" that had been lurking in the shadows silently leaped onto the platform, their sharp claws slicing through the air.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered.

Three heads wearing mage hats shot into the sky.

The headless corpse crashed to the ground, dropping a pile of top-tier mage equipment.

It's all over.

The last glimmer of hope was extinguished.

On the city wall, a shield warrior's shield fell to the ground with a "clatter".

Instead of picking it up, he rushed towards the game menu like a madman, frantically pressing the "Exit Game" button.

He's going offline!

He needs to unplug the power immediately!

He wanted to escape this devilish game!

His actions served as a signal, and the remaining dozens of players followed suit. White lights flashed on the city walls as people scrambled to escape.

Right in the midst of this collapsing torrent.

A monster, entirely black and more agile than the other aliens, leaped nimbly to the top of the dilapidated command tower.

It did not attack.

It simply stood there quietly, looking down at the group of players who had scattered like birds and beasts.

Then, to everyone's horror, it slowly raised one of its sharp claws and held it to the side of its head.

He performed a standard human military salute.

Followed by.

The golden world announcement that had already cast a shadow over everyone lit up once again.

[World Announcement (Alien): This is the legendary 'Physical Title Ban,' have you all mastered it?]

"puff--"

Kuanglong, who was slumped on the ground, saw the announcement and could no longer hold on, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

His eyes rolled back, and he fell straight down.

She was so angry that she fainted.

Inside the gaming pod.

After watching the farce unfold, Li Haotian yawned.

He turned off the live battle broadcast in front of him, and the spreadsheet titled "Roster of Core Members of the Mad Dragon Guild" reappeared.

Most of the names above have been crossed out with red strikethrough.

His mouse moved slowly across the table, eventually stopping on a name that hadn't been crossed out.

Mythology - Indra

Number one in the combat power rankings.

Li Haotian tapped his fingers lightly on the control panel.

"Next."
