I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.

"The realm of the gods?"

Zhui Feng swallowed hard, his previously excited expression freezing on his face.

He glanced at his companions and noticed that they all looked rather unwell.

In today's games, these four words are practically synonymous with death.

More than 300 max-level players went in, but disappeared without even making a ripple.

Although these ten people were all at the maximum level, they were still quite apprehensive about actually going to that place.

"Boss, you're not kidding, are you?" Steel Shield asked cautiously. "Even Iron Blood Emperor and his gang were taken down in that place, and we're just going to walk right in?"

Li Wu leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the table.

"I'm not kidding. We spent two months desperately trying to reach level 150 just to get past this threshold."

Li Wu's tone was flat, revealing no emotional fluctuation, "Are you scared?"

"Who's afraid!" Immovable as a mountain immediately shouted at the top of his lungs, "Wherever you go, boss, I'll go! At worst, I'll die, lose some experience, and start over!"

"This isn't a matter of losing experience points." Hua Zitong sat next to Li Wu, her brows slightly furrowed.

"We know absolutely nothing about the realm of the gods. Whether we can get out, and how, is all unknown. What if we get trapped inside like those people..."

"That's why I need to explain the guild's affairs clearly," Li Wu interrupted Hua Zitong.

He turned to look at Lin Hai, who was sitting in the corner listening to the conversation.

Lin Hai quickly sat up straight and pricked up his ears.

"Lin Hai, after we leave, the guild's daily operations will be entirely in your hands."

Li Wu's gaze was fixed on Lin Hai, making Lin Hai's scalp tingle.

"Boss, this...this is too much of a burden." Lin Hai wiped the sweat from his forehead. "I can manage finances and logistics, but if other guilds cause trouble or there's a guild war, I can't command them."

"No one dares to cause trouble," Li Wu said. "Our position in District 21 is secure. Hua Zitong will go and say hello to the Sword and Rose Guild and the Flower Language Guild later, and ask them to keep an eye on things."

"As long as you don't provoke trouble, there's no problem defending the city."

Li Wu paused for a moment, then continued:

"If you really encounter a problem that you can't solve, then activate the highest defensive formation of the Undying City."

"This magic array has enough energy reserves to last you a month. In a month, no matter what we encounter inside, we should have a result."

Lin Hai could only nod reluctantly, "I understand, boss. I'll definitely take good care of the house and wait for you to come back."

Li Wu then turned to look at Hua Zitong.

"Go contact Sword Pointing Rose and Flower Language, Little Phoenix, and tell them we're going to enter the Realm of Gods."

Hua Zitong was taken aback: "Tell them directly? If this news gets out, it will definitely cause a huge uproar outside."

"Those guilds that were originally well-behaved might take the opportunity to do something sneaky."

"That's exactly what we want them to know," Li Wu sneered. "They're smart. Knowing that we dare to enter the realm of the gods will only make them more respectful of us and less likely to have any disloyal thoughts."

"As for the other guilds, if they want to die, I can just take care of them when I come out."

Li Wu's idea was simple: hiding things would only make people feel guilty.

Displaying it openly and boldly is a form of absolute confidence and deterrence.

Hua Zitong understood this and nodded: "Okay, I'll take care of it after the meeting."

Next, Li Wu began assigning tasks to each person in the team.

"Immovable as a mountain, steel shield. You two go and take out all the potions and scrolls that can increase defense and resistance from the guild warehouse, and fill one backpack each."

"In the realm of the gods, you are the first line of defense and must withstand unknown harm."

"Understood!" the two answered in unison.

"Angelica dahurica, Pinellia ternata. Go and collect all the items that can instantly restore health and remove abnormal statuses."

"Remember, don't use those that provide continuous healing; just use those that instantly restore your health. In places like that, you might not even get a second of continuous healing time."

The two female pastors nodded earnestly.

"Wind Chaser, Night Wind, Shadow, Winter's Edge." Li Wu looked at the four damage dealers and controllers.

"You guys go prepare burst potions and movement scrolls. Don't worry about sustain, just focus on how to deal the highest damage in the shortest amount of time, or how to survive in the most dangerous situations."

After assigning the tasks, Li Wu stood up.

"Get ready. We'll meet at the teleportation plaza at 8 PM. We'll head straight there."

Everyone got up and left the meeting room.

Everyone's expression was solemn; they knew that the upcoming battle would be the most difficult one of their gaming careers.

Only Li Wu and Hua Zitong remained in the office.

Hua Zitong looked at Li Wu, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "How confident are you?"

Li Wu walked to the window and looked out at the bustling, never-ending city.

"I'm not sure," Li Wu said truthfully.

Although he had gained some understanding of higher languages, he knew nothing about the mechanism of the divine realm.

Even the leaders of those long-established super guilds were trapped there, which shows that the difficulty there is absolutely beyond imagination.

"Then why are you in such a hurry to go in?" Hua Zitong walked to his side and stood next to him.

"Because time is running out." Li Wu turned to look at her. "The Titan core fragments and the bones of Erlin have resonated with each other."

"This means that the ultimate secret of the Arcane Archer class is hidden in the Realm of the Gods. If I don't unlock this secret, I will never be able to break through my current bottleneck."

He paused, his gaze deepening. "And I have a feeling. Those trapped inside might not be unable to get out. They might be fighting for something."

"If they get there first, everything we have now will become a joke."

Hua Zitong was startled. She suddenly remembered her brother, Hua Yufengyin.

My brother led his team into the realm of gods half a year ago, and there has been no news of him since.

She was very worried. If what Li Wu said was true, and there was some kind of brutal struggle taking place inside, then her brother's current situation must be very dangerous.

"I understand." Hua Zitong took a deep breath. "I'll contact Sword and Rose and the Flower Language Guild."

Just as she was about to turn and leave, Li Wu suddenly called out to her.

"Hua Zitong".

Hua Zitong stopped and turned to look at him.

"No matter what dangers we encounter inside, stay close to me." Li Wu looked into her eyes, his tone calm, yet carrying an undeniable strength. "I won't let you die in there."

Hua Zitong was stunned.

Looking at Li Wu's calm face, she suddenly felt a strange emotion welling up inside her.

She bit her lip, nodded vigorously, turned and quickly walked out of the office.

8 PM.

In the teleportation plaza of the Undying City, ten people had already gathered.

Lin Hai led a large group of guild members to see them off. The square was packed with people, but no one made a sound. Everyone looked at the ten heroes who were about to go to their deaths with awe and worry.

"Boss, everything's packed." The man, as immovable as a mountain, patted the bulging backpack.

Li Wu glanced at everyone. Everyone was in peak condition.

"Set off."
