Chapter 291 Taking Control Of Doncaster

Reign could feel the anchor point being somewhere around the giant tree, but even after they had arrived in front of it they weren't able to see it. An anchor point is extremely easy to spot as it was a tear in space and wasn't inconspicuous at all. Them not being able to see it meant that either it was hidden beneath the ground or there was something else hiding it.

Reign and the others walked around the giant tree and looked everywhere around it but there was simply nothing there, it was just a gigantic tree that didn't even have any fruits growing from it. They thought that maybe the anchor point was hidden beneath the tree but Reign assured them that that was not the case as he could feel the anchor point and it was definitely in front of them.

A couple of minutes passed as they combed the whole area around the tree looking for anything that could help them but they were unsuccessful as there really was nothing. They all sat down in front of the tree in order to discuss what to do next, the anchor point was nowhere to be seen even though Reign was clearly able to feel its existence, not only could he feel it but he knew that it was in their immediate vicinity.

As they talked Reign got up and tried climbing the tree, Shadow had previously done so and found nothing, but since Reign was able to feel the anchor point he might get a different result. As soon as Reign's hand touched the tree there was a reaction, just like Reign had thought, there indeed was a different result as the whole tree suddenly started shaking.

The rough bark of the tree fell off as a new, golden one replaced it, the whole tree grew a whole 50 meters in height as its thickness also increased and pushed Reign back a bit. The branches elongated while the leaves started shining as if moonlight was being reflected from them.

"Found it." Reign suddenly said as he marveled at the tree in front of him, he was pushed back gently by the growth of the tree and his hand was still on it. He felt a sense of familiarity with the tree as its gentle light enveloped him, it was obvious to Reign that he had found the anchor point, contrary to his belief it was the tree all along.

It wasn't as if the anchor point somehow found its way inside the tree or anything like that, the tree itself seemed to be filled to the brim with powerful magic and it was an anchor point. It was also more powerful compared to the other anchor points that Reign and the others had found but the energy was much more gentle compared to the others.

Perhaps it was because Reign had already taken over the other anchor points but there was no kind of resistance at all coming from the tree as it was slowly being taken over by Reign. The two other anchor points in the territory started emanating powerful spatial energy as the people in those places became worried about what was happening.

The one in Reign's territory had already been fused with another anchor point and it was larger than normal, the powerful spatial waves made the walls of the cave crack and crumble while the whole territory was shaking. Magokur took all of his orcs outside the base as it was going through the same thing, he knew that something was happening with the anchor point and he knew that Reign and the others had gone to fight the giant ape. He firmly believed that they had taken the monster down and that this was the sign of them finally controlling all of the anchor points.

The anchor points suddenly moved, in a blink of an eye they disappeared before appearing in the jungle above the giant tree. The anchor point that was in Reign's territory shook violently as it split in two and now there were three of them above the tree, slowly they started moving toward the tree before going inside of it.

The action further speed up the transformation of the tree, now it was a full 230 meters high and it was still growing with no intention of stopping, the tree bark started shining brighter while the leaves followed.

After about 2 minutes had passed it seemed that the transformation was finally over, the tree was now a staggering 300 meters high which is almost triple the size of the world's largest tree, Hyperion.

Reign was suddenly shocked to find that he now possessed new powers, the powers were of course only available in the town which was now considered to be his territory. He could create safe zones of any size in the town and he could easily expel any monster that was inside, his individual strength as well was increased inside the town as he was almost 50% stronger in all aspects while being here.

All the residents of the town also had their stats increased, but they only had a 10% increase and it was only active in safe zones. Before anyone could do anything the jungle suddenly changed, the giant rock walls and waterfalls suddenly disappeared as the jungle became much smaller, the many trees and plants were also smaller compared to before. They could see the buildings of the town nearby and they knew that they had finally finished the area, of course, it was partly due to Reign taking over all anchor points, the power he had allowed him to easily destroy such restrictions.

With Reign taking over the four anchor points he was able to move across the town as he wished, with the tree under his possession he could simply teleport himself and the others anywhere in the town. In an instant he appeared back in the territory while the tree stayed outside, the enormous tree was too large to fit inside the underground city anyway.

Reign and the others quickly explained to everyone what was happening, even though all of the city residents had faith that Reign and the others would kill the ape, after hearing that they truly did so they were beyond happy. Gone were the days when they needed to stay underground and hide from the monsters that roamed the streets.

With Reign having complete control over the town he was able to create a large safe zone around the area where their city was located in. The whole area had been cleared completely by Reign and the others players for quite some time and there were barely any monsters to be found there anyway. Making that a safe zone wouldn't do any damage to the hunting parties.

Soon all of the residents went out, they were happy that they could finally live outside without fear of monsters attacking them. All of the important buildings from the underground city were teleported outside while a couple of destroyed or run-down buildings had disappeared from the spot. Of course, they didn't simply disappear as Reign had merely switched their place with the ones below and now those buildings were in the underground city.

The city was still considered a safe zone, the ants had previously attacked them from a tunnel and Reign wanted to create a larger tunnel that would lead down to the nest of those ants, the ants were strong and would be strong opponents for the players in the future.

The two teleport stations were also sent up, they were now located in the middle of the safe zone which was right in front of the warehouse. Immediately after doing that the teleport stations suddenly started working as Eldar and Jack came out from one while Aelrinder and the queen herself came from the other one.

With Reign having full control over the town now even they were able to easily come over now, of course, they still had to abide by the rules of the system. Jack and Eldar had come here as a job and they were responsible for defending the safe zone given to them, back when Reign took over the first anchor point Eldar was able to arrive and defend the territory as they were considered allies, if something like that was to happen again however he would be unable to come and help them unless Reign paid a large amount of S Coins to hire him for help.

For the queen it was even worse, she had arrived here with the hopes of gaining more territory and benefits, thanks to that the restrictions on her were even higher and she wasn't even able to help the elves out even during a dangerous situation.

As Reign was busy doing all of those things he wasn't able to hear the notifications that had arrived from the system. He had finally managed to take over the whole town and the rewards would of course be adequate.
