Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

With a wave of his hand, Skylock tossed a holographically projected magical map into the center of the round table.

"Buzz—"

The moment the map unfolded, a deep resonance filled the air. The map was not a simple image, but a three-dimensional model composed of countless tiny magical dots, each dot slowly flowing, as if the land itself were alive.

This is a complete map of the Abyss, dozens of times more detailed than any player's map. Mountains, rivers, forests, deserts, swamps, frozen tundra—every inch of land is precisely marked. Even more terrifying is the map's dense markings of almost every city, dungeon, and prominent resource points, powerful monster spawn locations, main loot, drops, respawn times, and more. Some information is even accurate to the minute, clearly demonstrating an unimaginable investment of effort.

Liu Nian's pupils contracted slightly.

The value of this map is immeasurable for any guild!

In fact, this map was personally drawn by Skylock after traversing every corner of the Netherworld. Its value is immense, not only for the guild but for any individual player! If it were auctioned off, it might not even fetch the price of ten Eternal-grade equipment!

Currently, the map is covered with numerous red markers, densely packed like a patch of bloody sores. Liu Nian recognized it at a glance—this was the distribution map of the Pharaoh's army.

Liu Nian was able to recognize it because it showed the locations of seven dungeons—the locations of those seven regional bosses, which had now all become strongholds of the Pharaoh's forces.

The locations of Graystone Castle and the Temple of Eternal Slumber are marked by a banner of the Divine Dragon Guild, clearly indicating that these two locations belong to the Divine Dragon Guild.

The Frost Mountain Range was marked with an octagonal shield, and even without Wang Mian's explanation, Liu Nian and Wu Zhan knew that it was the emblem of the Supreme Guild.

The Supreme Guild is the number one super power among the ten guilds established by Skylock, and it is known to everyone in the Land of Abyss.

Clearly, of the seven Pharaoh cities, the Divine Dragon Guild occupies two, and the Supreme Guild occupies one. The remaining four—the Bone Desert, the Forgotten Forest, the Lost Swamp, and the Boiling Canyon—remain in the hands of the Pharaoh's forces.

"I believe everyone understands, right?" Skylock raised his hand, his finger tracing a line in the air, marking the four pharaoh's cities in deep red, flashing a warning light. "The pharaoh's forces still control four cities, and the pharaoh himself is currently—here!"

He pointed his finger sharply, and a spot was magnified.

A blood-red wasteland, a sea of ​​withered bones.

"The Starry Sky Guild attempted to attack this city yesterday, but unexpectedly encountered the Pharaoh in person, and all the warriors who went out to attack were wiped out."

Skylock's tone remained unchanged, but the atmosphere around the round table became noticeably heavy, and many people gasped.

Starry Night Guild is the second-ranked guild among the top ten guilds, specializing in high-difficulty dungeon raids. How could they be completely wiped out? Not a single one of them escaped?

The tall woman named Dracaya snorted irritably, leaned back in her chair, and crossed her arms: "You could have just said I was unlucky!"

Her voice carried a hint of displeasure, but more so of helplessness and annoyance.

Liu Nian glanced at her.

Wang Mian immediately explained the situation to the two of them in the chat channel.

It turns out that this woman named Drakaya is a Starfire Dragon player. She founded the Starry Sky Guild and is ranked fourth on the combat power list. Yesterday, she personally led a team to attack the Crimson Wasteland. They had already broken through, but unexpectedly, the Pharaoh's true form was hidden inside.

So, unsurprisingly, they failed.

And it wasn't just a defeat, it was a complete crushing!

They didn't even manage to harm a hair on the Pharaoh's head before being wiped out in droves.

Drakaya escaped thanks to the Starfire Dragon Clan's innate skill "Nirvana," but she also lost a legendary piece of equipment.

However, because of this, she obtained very important information.

Dracaya sat up straight, the golden runes on her robes glowing faintly, clearly indicating that the magic within her was still somewhat agitated from recalling yesterday's battle.

"The Pharaoh's true form is in the giant undead city beneath the Bone Sands, which can also be called the main city of the Pharaoh's forces!" Her voice became solemn. "Not only is the Pharaoh himself there, but also the avatars of twelve divine beasts."

A clone of a mythical beast?

Liu Nian, Wu Zhan, and Wang Mian were stunned for a moment before they realized that she was referring to the twelve beast god avatars.

A murmur arose at the round table.

"Secondly," Drakaya tapped the table to signal everyone to be quiet, "the Pharaoh's high-level legions, which we encountered included—a large number of giant bone snakes, colossal mummies, undead war elephant chariots, a giant bat legion, and a large number of Sphinx constructs. The individual combat power of these things is all at the level of mythical-class bosses, and if you put them together..."

Dracaya's voice grew softer and softer until it finally turned into a long sigh.

Upon hearing Dracaya's description, everyone gasped. The air around the round table seemed to freeze, and even Skylock's usually calm face showed a hint of seriousness.

No wonder such a powerful force as the stars suffered a crushing defeat. With so many terrifying high-level monsters present, even Skylock's Supreme Guild might not have been able to handle them.

Liu Nian suddenly spoke up: "What about that dimensional sand-devouring beast in the Sea of ​​Withered Bones?"

Dracaya glanced at Liu Nian.

Her gaze lingered on Liu Nian's face for two seconds, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, whether in a bitter smile or a helpless one, it was hard to tell.

"That thing is famous, many players know about it, but through this experience, I've figured it out, that thing is actually the Pharaoh's pet!" She shook her head, her long red hair swaying with the movement like a flickering flame. "It's essentially a living teleportation array, capable of suddenly appearing anywhere at any time to teleport the Pharaoh's army out. With it, there's no possibility of forming an encirclement—even if you completely surround a city, it can open a portal behind you and send an entire legion to your rear. The Pharaoh can rely on that thing to move his army at any time, you'll never be able to annihilate his main force."

Upon hearing this, Liu Nian felt that this thing was somewhat similar to the Jumbo, both having the potential to be troop transport ships.

However, the two are slightly different. The behemoth can be carried around and is flexible and concealed, but its capacity is limited and it cannot carry too many people at once. While this dimensional sand-devouring beast is not as flexible, its teleportation ability can endlessly transfer troops. If it wants, it can send tens of thousands of people thousands of miles away at once.

Come to think of it, this thing is quite similar to the dimensional wormhole he encountered when he last met the Gorgon King... I wonder if the two are related.
