Chapter 2073: Terror of the Skies
Most of the Pantheon guild members have arrived back in the territory. The ones that did not come were those that have quests that they cannot stop. Fortunately for them, all of the guild officers are present in the moment. This is finally the time where all original members of the guild are now gathered. All of them gathered at the guild house and started to talk on what should be the reward for the guild member that will get the best contribution.
"Should we even fight for the first spot? We all know who will be the one that gets it anyways." Creepysoo stated.
"My brother told me that he will not be part of the ranking to encourage other guild members to do their best. Also, you can say that this will become the unofficial ranking of strength against all of the guild members." Solstice stated.
"If that is the case then it will be this old man's time to shine. The enemy is flying after all, and I am part storm elemental now." Vayu stated.
"I will be the one that will defeat the giant bird!" Soleil stated as she is now surrounded by two greater fire elementals.
"The army of the dead will be the one that will bring forth victory!" Creepysoo added as he was trying to look cool by making a pose with his hand covering half his face.
"I can also fly as well. This might my time to shine." Kabrakan stated as he also has an armor that can aid him in flight.
"I guess all of you are lucky. I cannot fly like all of you, but I will still do my best. I only have Levin Cloud as my companion when it comes to being flightless." Lycan stated.
"Me? I can fly though." Levin Cloud stated but the others looked at him with eyes full of judgement.
"I will fly with him because he will ride me!" Peridot stated which suddenly made Levin Cloud blush and the other cough.
"Be careful with those words as some might misunderstand." Levin Cloud stated.
"Where is big brother anyways?" Creepysoo asked.
"He is currently having a meeting with the guild masters that want to participate." Solstice stated.
Meanwhile, the other guild members were looking at their guild officials thinking that they were having a very serious meeting.
"It seems that the primordial beast this time will be difficult. You can see that all of the guild officials are talking seriously." Amelia stated as she was talking with other guild members as she wanted to have a small break.
[All beings that will be in combat with the Ziz will gain increased health, mana, and stamina
regeneration.]
[The Tree of Life and Death has given all beings that will go against the Primordial Beast Ziz the buff of Silent Death.]
[You have been given the buff called Silent Death.]
[Your critical strike chance has increased by 5%.]
[Your critical strike damage will be increased by 50%.]
[You have gained a 1% chance of instantly killing your enemy.]
[The Tree of Life and Death loves all the beings that try to protect it. All beings protecting it will not be able to hurt their allies stray spells or attacks.]
A sudden rush of powerful gold and purple energy emerged from the Tree of Life and Death. The Tree of Life and Death made sure to give its blessings to all of the beings that are trying to protect it because it can already see the massive army hidden behind the dark clouds. The Ziz flew up high and flapped its four massive wings to part away the dark clouds that were filled with miasma. Behind the dark clouds was a flock of numerous bird type monsters that were equally powerful in their own right.
[The Ziz has used its power as the True Ruler of the Skies to amass an army of winged
monsters.]
[Defeat or subdue the winged monsters in order to weaken the Ziz as it is drawing power from all of the winged monsters it has under its control.]
The players could only have their jaws drop because the sheer number of flying monsters was
too many to count. The skies above Avalon were filled by different winged monsters and some were even quite rare. Not only will they get rare loot, but summoners could even capture rare flying monsters for themselves or to sell as mounts. Even Adrian wanted to start sealing some monsters as flying mounts are very in demand.
"I already know what you are thinking, brat. Do not even try to take off your mind against the battle because that thing shattered the first barrier just by ramming its body on it. We only have two barriers left and if those get shattered then it is all over." Elder Ascalor stated.
"I know as I am also incredibly mad at it! Do you know how much money was used to create that powerful barrier! I will make sure to pluck every feather from that damned bird!" Adrian stated as he was suddenly slapped with the fact that he lost about a hundred thousand gold.
