Ding!

[ The player has successfully taken control over all four anchor points and has become the leader of a medium-sized territory since the player is the first one to do so he will be rewarded with a unique title ]

-          Conqueror title received

[ Congratulations to the player for taking control over the medium-sized territory Doncaster, for such an achievement the system will send out a world notification, does the player wish to stay anonymous?]

"Um, is it possible to use the party name for the notification?"

[ Yes ]

"Then please use the party name."

Ding!

[ World achievement! ]

[ The party "Heaven's Hooligans" has successfully become the first party in the world to take over a medium-sized territory! ]

[ The party will be rewarded with a title and other rewards, the system asks of other players to follow in the footsteps of the party and take over more territories in the future. ]

Ding!

[ Rewards are the following: ]

-          100 000 exp points received

-          20 000 S Coins received

-          Huge Basic material chest received

-          Large Rare material chest received

The material chests were chests that contained a plethora of materials that could be used for constructing many high-tier buildings and for upgrading the current ones, they were also used for constructing teleport stations like how they did with the elves where they actually only contributed the S Coins while the elves found the necessary materials needed for the teleport station to be created.

The materials would be of great help for a short period of time as Reign could now build most buildings without needing to send out players to find anything, of course, there were still plenty of renewable missions that could be found in the Adventurer's Guild that would reward players that turned in any kind of materials.

Players could also build things in the territory but they needed to get permission from Reign, in order to make the whole process easier Reign created another department in the territory that would have control over selling parts of the territory to other players in order to let them build whatever they wanted to. Of course, it was only selling on the surface as Reign could take back the piece of territory at any point he wished, of course, he wouldn't do that unless it was necessary as that would simply make him a tyrant and diminish all goodwill that he and the others had gained during the months they had been in charge in Doncaster.

The people so far loved them, each time the party went out for something important the status quo would change, first they had managed to take over the warehouse and allow everyone to live comfortably in the underground city while having an easier time getting to the forests in order to become stronger.

As the players became stronger they were finally able to fight against the monsters in the town while Reign and the others hunted the orc patrols and stronger monsters in order to let the players have fewer casualties. They also took down the necromancer and defended the castle against the horde of demons while letting the other players fight the weaker waves and defending the ones that were close to being seriously injured or dying.

Destroying the orc base was the next step and after they had done that they announced to everybody what had happened, they explained that Magokur was from a different planet that had an orc empire that coexisted with humans and other races. The players were skeptical at first but after seeing the orcs who were friendly towards them and after some had even been saved by Magokur's forces in the town they adapted and formed a better relationship with them.

The final thing Reign and the others had done was of course killing the giant ape and taking over the whole town. Even though the players had gotten used to living in the underground city they still felt a bit nostalgic and wished to return to the surface, and now they finally could.

Some even started crying and weeping after going out and seeing the half-destroyed town, they had spent most of their lives here before the game began and many of their friends and family got slaughtered by the monsters that suddenly appeared. Being able to stand outside with no fear of monsters, just like in the past was an incredibly emotional moment for everybody, especially for those that didn't fight and only crafted or lived off of what Reign and the others gave them.

Many immediately flocked to the apartments and houses that could be found around them, the stronger parties and better craftsmen of course took the better homes, nobody complained about it as they knew that they were currently amongst the most important people in the territory and nobody wanted to be on bad terms with them.

Some places however were simply not possible to live in, some players were shocked after entering an apartment and seeing blood and rotten flesh inside, many vomited before going out and taking heavy breaths. Reign was able to use his powers to quickly search for such places and remove all of that, with the powers given to him by the tree and the conqueror title which further enhanced all of his stats and powers inside his territory he was able to fully control his territory right now. Removing corpses and buildings was easy, but the players that had seen the sight previously simply couldn't stay there and went to find other places to live in.

The giant golden tree was also a spectacle for many, it stood right behind the warehouse and its roots went deep down, they were even visible from the underground city as many had broken through the ceiling before burrowing further down. The tree was the source of Reign's power, if it was ever destroyed then it would be a big blow to Reign who would lose a lot of the powers he had in the territory, of course destroying such a huge thing was an incredibly difficult thing to do and even Reign and the others weren't able to do it.

"That's!" The queen exclaimed after seeing the golden tree, Eldar and Jack simply nodded to her as a response before speaking.

"A branch of Yggdrasil, Reign, and the others had previously seen one in a forest near our zone, but it couldn't compare to this one, to be honest, it already unlocked some of its powers, mainly the spatial powers," Eldar said after smiling since Reign now had control over the tree he could, of course, make it even more powerful, one way of doing that would be to take the tree inside the Black Forest and fuse it with this one.

Reign slowly made his way toward Eldar and the others, his path was blocked by tens of people who were cheering and hugging him with tears in their eyes. More than 2 months ago nobody thought that they would ever be able to live peacefully in the town ever again, thousands of monsters littered the streets of the town and it was risky to take a single step outside the safe zone.

Now however they were free, no longer did they need to cower before the monsters or live in warehouses. They could finally live normally, of course, that was just the perception that they had, the game was still in its initial phase and as more time passed the more dangerous the world would become, those that simply thought they were safe would never amount to anything, it was simply an illusion that they were safe.

If Reign was to die then the whole town would turn back to being infested by the monsters, perhaps most of the people here would die in the first 24 hours of it happening. Of course, Reign didn't show any such thoughts on his face, he simply smiled at the people and shook their hands while hugging others. After some time he finally managed to arrive in front of the four people that had arrived via the teleport station.

Eldar and Jack gave him warm smiles as they congratulated him while the queen simply nodded at him. Aelrinder was still marveling at the giant tree that had appeared, he had seen a similar sight back in their kingdom, but the tree there wasn't a branch of Ygrassil and even though it was many times larger compared to it, it still felt short when being compared to the splendor this one had.

He quickly shook it off after noticing Reign however and greeted him enthusiastically, the two had become good friends after fighting against the monster horde and shared many similar interests.

They all talked about what was going to happen next, they could feel that Reign and the others were already level 50 and that the first evolution was right in front of them, all plans would have to be put on hold before they received the challenge from the system.

And of course, as soon as they started talking about what kind of challenge they might receive the system suddenly sent a notification to Reign and the others.

Ding!
