Chapter 1 The Roar

Stone Peak's roar echoed across Devil City, stunning all the players within.

"No way! He's going to break the city?"

"This is Devil City! Has he gone mad?"

Everyone in Devil City was dumbfounded by Stone Peak's actions. They never expected him to actually attack the city, and head-on no less. It was utter madness.

It was as laughable as a player declaring they wanted to attack an NPC main city in a kingdom.

The jet-black dragon swung its claws at the magical barrier in mid-air with ferocious force.

In that instant, the swing of its claws transformed into a gigantic claw shadow, blotting out the sun, like a mountain crashing down on the translucent magical barrier.

Boom!

The sky rumbled, the earth trembled, and the intense shock shattered the surrounding space inch by inch, like a shattered mirror. The power was many times greater than its previous Dragon Breath.

"What power!" Wind Sigh, who had just emerged from a bar, gazed at the shaking magical barrier in the sky, filled with awe. "That's the Devil City's defensive magic array! Even a full-force attack from a Tier 4 NPC wouldn't cause any fluctuations. How strong is his attack to actually make the magic array fluctuate?"

Everyone in Devil City knew how powerful its magic array was.

When Devil City was first established, the Ten Saints Empire sent an NPC army to attack. Several Tier 4 NPCs bombarded the magic array with all their might, but the magic barrier didn't even ripple.

Only the strike of a Tier 5 High Priest managed to break Devil City's defensive magic array.

Stone Peak was just a Tier 3 player, and even if he transformed into a Tier 3 giant dragon, he would only be on par with those Tier 4 NPCs at best.

But now, with a single blow, he was causing the magic barrier to tremble and fluctuate violently. It was unbelievable.

"He's crazy! He's definitely crazy!" Fire Featherfall, watching Stone Peak continuously attacking the magic barrier, was dumbfounded. "Directly bombarding the magic barrier is an act of siege. Even the super guild War Wolf wouldn't dare to do that. The ones who will act then won't just be the people of Devil's Heart; the NPCs in Devil City will probably attack directly. Doesn't he even know that?"

In God's Domain, attacking guild towns was one thing, because guild towns were entirely owned by players. But cities like Devil City were different. Players only owned half of it; the other half was still in the hands of the Devil NPCs.

That was why these Devil players were confident that no player could shake Devil City.

When the War Wolf guild sent a large army, their initial goal was only to kill the Devil players in Devil City, weakening its strength. They never even considered sieging the city.

Now, Stone Peak was relentlessly bombarding Devil City's magic barrier. He was practically courting death.

In the Devil's Heart Residence, All Heavens Chaos heaved a sigh of relief at this scene.

He had almost thought Stone Peak would shatter Devil City's magic barrier, but now that it was only trembling and fluctuating, Stone Peak's attacks were still within the magic barrier's tolerance.

"He really dares to act," Elder Wrath Heart muttered, stunned.

He never expected Stone Peak to actually try to siege the city, and their Devil City at that.

"Hahaha, he's finished. I'm afraid that before the Vice Guild Leader and the others return, this Black Flame will be dealt with by the great devils guarding the city," a black-robed elder beside him said, laughing as he watched Stone Peak's frenzied attacks.

Originally, they were helpless against Stone Peak and could only wait for the Vice Guild Leader and the others to arrive.

But Stone Peak had lost his mind and directly attacked Devil City.

Now they didn't have to do anything. They just needed to watch how the great devils guarding Devil City dealt with Stone Peak.

The guarding great devils!

Those were monsters even more powerful than human NPCs, and the guarding Devil Warlords were terrifying existences comparable to human heroes, beings that players simply couldn't contend with.

"Guild Leader?"

At this moment, not only the vast number of Devil players in Devil City were dumbfounded, but even Qing Shuang and the others who had come with Stone Peak were stunned.

In their opinion, infiltrating Devil City, secretly killing All Heavens Chaos, and then quickly leaving would have been perfect.

They never imagined Stone Peak would attack Devil City!

Before Qing Shuang and the others could recover, more than a dozen great devils flew out of Devil City. Not only were their levels as high as Level 130 or above, but the aura they exuded suffocated everyone.

Especially the one in the lead, a dignified man wearing magnificent crimson armor and wielding a giant ice axe, was no different from a human NPC. He had the air of a nobleman.

If one only looked at his appearance, this man was no different from a human, but upon using an Observation Skill, one would discover that he was not human but a genuine devil, and one with noble blood at that.

Moorephimos (Devil Warlord), Great Devil, Two-Star Devil Marquis, Level 135, HP 700,000,000.

These devils instantly surrounded Stone Peak, who had transformed into a giant dragon, staring at him, giving him no chance of escape.

"Dragon, this is the city of our Devil race, not a place for you to come!" Moorephimos said to Stone Peak with an icy tone.

As Moorephimos spoke, the players in Devil City were instantly in an uproar.

"Look! Our City Lord is going to take action!"

"That Black Flame is too arrogant. Challenging Devil's Heart is one thing, but he even dares to touch Devil City. He's dead for sure!"

"That Black Flame is already amazing just for having the courage to do this. I wonder how long he can last."

...

For a moment, the players in Devil City were excited, watching Stone Peak surrounded by Tier 4 great devils in the sky.

It was rare for NPCs to directly attack players. At the same time, no player wasn't curious about the strength of those NPCs, especially the Devil NPCs. They only knew that those Devil NPCs were beings they absolutely couldn't provoke.

Now, to be able to see a Devil NPC fight a monster-level player was something all players had always yearned for.

The members of Devil's Heart also smiled.

With more than a dozen Tier 4 great devils taking action, even a Tier 4 human hero wouldn't be able to leave safely, let alone a Tier 3 player.

Just as the members of Devil's Heart were gloating over Stone Peak's foolish behavior, they heard Stone Peak sigh in mid-air.

"As expected, just relying on the power of a Tier 3 dragon is not enough to break this magic barrier. It seems I can only get serious!"

Stone Peak's voice wasn't loud, but the sigh from the giant dragon was very loud, and the sound echoed throughout Devil City. The members of Devil's Heart present heard it very clearly.

"What does he mean?"

"He hasn't gotten serious yet?"

"He's bluffing! He's definitely bluffing! He's just trying to find an excuse for himself."

For a moment, the Devil's Heart players present were discussing Stone Peak's words, feeling that Stone Peak was showing off in front of them, but had actually exhausted all his means and was saying that out of helplessness.

"No way! Does he still have trump cards he hasn't used?"

Wind Sigh, looking at Stone Peak in mid-air, faintly felt that Stone Peak didn't seem to be bragging, but he also felt that it was impossible. After all, Stone Peak was now in a desperate situation. Forget about killing All Heavens Chaos, he couldn't even protect himself.

Before everyone could finish speaking, the giant dragon in mid-air suddenly disappeared, and Stone Peak's original form appeared in its place, standing proudly in the sky above Devil City, holding an ancient and heavy book in his hand, giving all the Devil players present an indescribable sense of awe.

"Damn it! How could it be in your hands!" Moorephimos's expression changed drastically when he saw the ancient book in Stone Peak's hand.

Before the Devil players present could react, Moorephimos turned and fled into Devil City. Not only Moorephimos, but the dozen or so great devils surrounding Stone Peak also had terrified expressions, turning and running madly towards Devil City.

For a moment, all the players in Devil City were stunned...
