Boom!

Boom!

Explosions took place on top of a mountain as 6 auras rose high up and made the surrounding monsters tremble in fear.

Three months had passed since the five demons had appeared on the first mountain, and Reign and the others were quite busy during that time.

They traveled around the mountain range and came across many different races that lived on it.

All kinds of beasts, multiple demon tribes, and some grotesque abominations could be found in the mountains.

The most dominant species on the mountain range were the demons.

Other than ash demons, Reign and the others had come across blood demons, berserkers, Kio demons ( demons with blue skin and the ability to use ice magic thanks to them living in extremely cold places, just like Dante had talked about. ), and more.

All the demons on the mountain range were vying for dominance and were at war against one another.

The winner would get full control over the mountain range.

Reign and the others not only fought against many demons, but they also managed to take over some bases as well.

Many times they were forced to flee and abandon the bases they took over, or some bases they had built as Tier III demons appeared and went after them.

Luckily for them, the mountain range was enormous and it was easy to simply pick different mountains to go to.

The players weren't falling behind either.

They had increased their areas of activity to multiple mountains and more Tier II combatants were appearing each week.

Reign and the others had also managed to get more and more people in the territory and now had approximately 7 000 people living there.

Out of the 7 000, about 3 000 were fighters, but only about half of them were high leveled.

Neil, Cameron, Elijah, Loreno, Carlo, and Marco each led a small organization at this moment.

They had their main squad, but they also had a couple of other squads that answered them.

There had been some deaths in many groups, and even 3 members of Elijah's squad had died.

Reign and the others thought about recruiting more players to join their building, but they decided against it since they simply didn't have the time to train them.

Elijah was the one that proposed building another building next to theirs and allowing Neil and the other powerful groups to live inside while having access to the underground training area and other facilities that they had.

They also jointly recruited more people that showed talent and started training them in order for them to one day become a powerful force that directly answered them.

The reason why Reign and the others didn't really care about recruiting more people that would serve directly under them was only partly because they had no time, the other reason was that there was no need to do that.

Most of the players in the territory basically worshipped them and the strongest squads were pretty much their personal forces at this point.

Also, there was no need to have more people since Reign and the others alone had more power than all the players in the territory combined.

One thing that was becoming more and more obvious as they leveled up was that numbers meant less the more powerful one became.

Each Tier that they went up, their powers would grow much stronger, and beings that were of lower Tiers would be completely unable to do anything to them.

Of course, that wasn't true for all.

There were beings that were of a higher tier but were not that much more powerful than them.

Reign and the others had also upgraded the auction house alongside other buildings which had given them more information about the region they were in.

It seems like the ocean was just past the mountain range and that there was land not far away from them.

There were in total about 176 territories that had safe zones in the region, but they were unable to find out just how large they were.

Safe zones could be incredibly large and allow for hundreds and even thousands of people to live safely inside, but there were also small safe zones where only a couple of people could live in as well.

They still hadn't come across the enemy organization that had tried to sabotage them back during the hidden task that Drayce had made.

The organization was very quiet and made no moves, for now,  most would find that to be good news and believe that the enemy was simply too scared of them to attack, but for Reign and the others who had faced them before, the news was nothing good.

They knew that the enemy wouldn't simply give up, they were definitely moving in the shadows and slowly raising their strength before they would attack them.

A hidden enemy was after all much more dangerous than a known one and Reign and the others were well aware of that.

The enemy hadn't even shown themselves during the challenges and simply laid low, just waiting for their opportunity to strike.

Magokur, however, had surprised them.

The orc had managed to bring over about 200 orcs, and each one was Tier I when they arrived, with some being Tier II.

Magokur was a part of a large empire that even had Tier VII beings, to send over a couple of hundred Tier I combatants was nothing to them, even sending out hundreds of Tier II orcs was nothing major, but unfortunately they were unable to do so since there were limits on the number of people that could be sent over at once and their power level.

Magokur didn't slack off during all this time.

He knew that in order to continue being the leader of the orcs here, he needed to work harder than others, and so he did.

He was currently a high-level Tier II combatant and in the whole territory, there were only 7 people that could fight evenly against him.

Another piece of good news was that Elijah had finally managed to activate his ability.

Nobody understood why he was unable to get an ability for so long, but after seeing what he had, Reign and the others all knew what the reason for not being able to get an ability was.

[ Rank A Poisonous Body ]

Description: The player has a body filled with poison. In order to finally activate the ability, the player had to go through numerous fights and gain the soul power of powerful monsters so that the poisons inside his body would activate and finally be usable. The player can poison a person with his very touch, and by using mana, the poison can change properties or be more or less powerful. Additionally, the player can also coat his weapons with poison, bring the poison out of his body, and more.

The ability was incredibly strict when it came to being activated and unlike most that would be activated by the player after going through a traumatic or stressful experience, Elijah's needed the player to kill a variety of monsters in order to activate it.

The poison was quite strong as well, unlike Reign and the others whose abilities were activated from the very beginning, Elijah was Tier II, and even a level 1 ability had power since he could simply pour mana into it.

The poison wasn't dangerous to Tier II beings, but that would change after Elijah was able to train and improve it. It wouldn't be long before the ability became powerful.

Elijah was the happiest one after gaining his ability.

He had been the leader of the squad for a long time, but lately, he didn't know what to do.

His strength was still the highest, but others were slowly catching up to him.

He didn't have an ability, while everybody else had abilities and they helped out tremendously.

And now, now he was able to not only get an ability but to get a rank A ability.

The other squads in the territory heard about the news, and the whole territory made an event out of it.

Most people knew of Elijah, he was after all one of the people that worked right under Reign and the others, and he was one of the most powerful players in the territory itself.

People drank, danced, laughed, and had a great time as they celebrated Elijah finally being able to use an ability.

Reign and the others had joined the party and took the day off alongside others before continuing fighting and hunting the next day.

They had spent the three months exclusively on the mountain range.

They were even able to see the giant they had seen the first day in action.

The giant was for some unknown reason attacked by a large group of demons.

Those were the berserkers.

Berserkers were demons that lived only for battle. They would attack anyone and anything, no matter how powerful they might be.

As one could imagine, the whole group and the base that was nearby were destroyed by one hit. The giant smashed them to pieces like they were nothing.

And now, after a full three months, Reign and the others had reached Tier III
