101: What do you think? Could it be that the rules are giving us a false projection?
Not long after, inside the Atlantis Ancient City, as time passed, members of the Mountain and Sea Pavilion Guild and the Chilin Guild met one after another and engaged in fierce combat.
"They're fighting! It probably won't take even a minute for the members of the Mountain and Sea Pavilion Guild to be wiped out!"
"A minute? Even lasting 10 seconds would be overestimating them. They are all Rank 5, while the lowest in the Chilin Guild is Rank 6. They have an absolute numerical advantage; there's simply no way to fight!"
"Look! Qin Yun's parents are surrounded, and the leader is none other than the Chilin Guild's Rank 8 Elder, Murong Yuan. They are doomed!"
Everyone immediately turned their eyes toward Qin Ming and his wife. After all, these were Qin Yun's parents; if they died, it would surely deal a huge blow to Qin Yun.
"Heh! I didn't expect to run into Qin Yun's parents. This is truly a gift from the heavens. As long as I kill you and bring your heads to the Guild Master, the Guild Master will surely reward me handsomely!" Murong Yuan laughed mockingly.
The Guild Master had stated that in this guild war, killing ordinary members of the Mountain and Sea Pavilion would earn 1,000 contribution points, while killing Qin Yun's family members would earn 10,000 contribution points.
To Murong Yuan's surprise, Qin Ming and his wife did not look panicked at all; instead, they stared at him quite calmly.
"Old Qin, don't hold me back. I want to take on ten of them!" Su He's Battle Intent was soaring; she wanted to fight to her heart's content and showcase her own brilliance!
"Alright! But be careful not to get caught by them. Although we won't die, it would be troublesome if we were captured!" Qin Ming reminded her carefully.
Beside them, Sarata smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Qin, Aunt Su, you don't need to worry about being captured. I have already advanced to Rank 5, and I can now use my innate Beast Skill at will. I can seal their controlling Beast Skills!"
"What? You can seal the opponent's controlling Beast Skills?" Qin Ming and his wife were shocked.
They knew the abilities of the two NPCs their son had subdued very well; Bili Si was a very strong control-type NPC, while Sarata hadn't shown anything special. To think she could seal an enemy target's skills—this ability was truly Divine-Grade! As expected of a Divine-Grade NPC, they really all possessed Divine-Grade abilities!
"Yes, the opponents are all higher Rank than me, so I cannot fully seal all of their Beast Skills, only a portion. The higher the opponent's Rank, the lower my sealing effect," Sarata explained.
Cloud Brother had asked her to accompany the two Elders because he was worried they would be controlled and captured by the experts of the Chilin Guild, but with Sarata's assistance, that problem no longer existed!
"Good! As long as the opponents cannot release controlling Beast Skills, we don't have to worry about being captured at all! Sarata, take them down!" Su He was already impatient to engage in a bloody battle; her target was the Rank 6 members of the Chilin Guild.
Just as Murong Yuan was about to make a move, Sarata acted first. "Great Sealing — Water Curtain Heavenly Brilliance!" "Seal — Controlling Beast Skills!"
Sarata's entire body bloomed with the radiance of seven-colored divine water, and a stunning, wide-range water curtain covered Murong Yuan and his group.
"Not good! This is a Divine-Grade NPC! How could the Mountain and Sea Pavilion Guild have a Divine-Grade NPC?" Murong Yuan and his group were stunned.
When they saw the information panel after Sarata's move, they collectively fell silent. This was actually a Divine-Grade female NPC subdued by Qin Yun! Damn it, could it get any more outrageous? Contracting two Divine Beasts was one thing, but he also subdued a Divine-Grade NPC? Could they still play nicely?
Meanwhile, the people watching the projection outside felt their scalps tingle, and some of the younger generation were so shocked they knelt down.
"How is Qin Yun so Heaven-Defying! He can even subdue a Divine-Grade NPC?"
"Wait! I remember these two super beauties were always by Qin Yun's side. Since this curvaceous beauty is a Divine-Grade NPC, could the other bewitchingly stunning beauty also be a Divine-Grade NPC?" someone asked in surprise.
"..." Everyone was left speechless. Because this was very likely!
"We must protect Qin Yun at all costs! If he doesn't die, Great Xia will surely soar. In the future, we can hand over the entire country to Qin Yun to manage, and we only need to assist him in running the country well!" After learning that Sarata was a Divine-Grade NPC subdued by Qin Yun, Dragon Seat made this decision on the spot.
Director Yue Zhenguo and the other big shots who supported Dragon Seat all nodded in agreement. In this era of Beast Tamers where the strong are respected, only by following such an invincible genius could they go further, could the country prosper, and could Great Xia have a chance to gain a foothold in the Otherworld Beast World!
At this moment, Murong Yuan and his group, who were covered by Sarata's innate Beast Skill, heard the rule notification: "Ding, you have been sealed by the Divine-Grade NPC Sarata, and all controlling Beast Skills are temporarily unusable!"
"Elder Murong, my controlling Beast Skills have turned gray; it says they are unusable!" "Elder Murong, mine too!" The squad members of the Chilin Guild were all numb. This Divine-Grade NPC was too bizarre, right? She was only Rank 5! Yet she had sealed all of their controlling Beast Skills. They were all high-level Beast Tamers above Rank 5; the Rank suppression actually had no effect!
"What are you panicking about? It's just that the controlling Beast Skills can't be used; our goal isn't to capture them, but to kill them!" As he spoke, Murong Yuan looked at Sarata with a gloomy gaze and said, "Truly worthy of being a Divine-Grade NPC. Even at only Rank 5, your innate Beast Skill has such a Divine-Grade effect. I'm afraid this is only a partial effect; if your Rank were the same as mine, I fear all of our Beast Skills would be sealed by you!"
Sarata did not respond to him; she wouldn't tell him that her innate Beast Skill could choose from four types of seals!
"Kill them!" Murong Yuan ordered. A mere Rank 5 Divine-Grade NPC was not something he took seriously. The other members he led immediately charged toward Qin Ming, Su He, Sarata, and Bili Si.
At this moment, Bili Si also made her move, unleashing her strongest charm. Even if it only charmed them for a tiny bit of time, it was enough for Uncle Qin and Aunt Su to strike first!
"Heavens! Another Divine-Grade NPC? Doesn't that mean Qin Yun possesses four Divine-Grade Beast Tamers?" The big shots watching the live projection were shocked once again.
Many big shots who were waiting to reap the benefits felt regret, but they quickly suppressed it. Since they had already done it, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and see it through to the end! Besides, Red Sky Scale would never let Qin Yun leave the guild war map alive. Once Qin Yun died, everything would turn to ashes!
"Old Qin, attack!" After saying this, Su He immediately initiated Fusion with the Bamboo Leaf Rat, flew into the air, and summoned her Epic Rank Beast, the [Purple Lightning Spirit Fox], to fight.
Since advancing to Rank 5, not only her, but all other members of the Mountain and Sea Pavilion Guild had immediately contracted an Epic Rank Beast. Under Qin Yun's leadership, they had farmed three large Dragon Monster maps and leveled up quite a bit. Although they hadn't reached Rank 5 yet, they had a certain level of combat capability.
"Holy crap! An Epic Rank Beast? Qin Yun's mom contracted an Epic Rank Beast?"
"It's not just as simple as an Epic Rank Beast; look at her HP, it's so high! Isn't Qin Yun's mom a trash with an F-Rank life-type beast?"
Just then, Su He publicly displayed her equipment status. "Hiss!!! An Epic Rank set? All other equipment is Epic Rank? And there's a piece of Legendary clothing equipment. Damn! Qin Yun's mom's equipment is this luxurious?"
"That's not right! I calculated it, and even with this set of equipment, it's impossible to have such high attributes unless her innate Beast talent has reached at least A-Rank and the guild bonus is very high. Only then could the attributes be this high!" Everyone's brains were struggling to process this. Can talents also increase Rank? This was outside their range of knowledge!
Before they finished their shock, Qin Ming also summoned an Epic Rank Beast, the [Thunder Spirit Tiger], which looked majestic! Qin Ming's body also radiated the red glow of Epic Rank equipment, as well as the golden light of a piece of Legendary footwear; his attributes were not lower than Su He's.
"Do you think it's possible that the rules are showing us a fake projection?" someone asked, clicking their tongue. Everyone else: "..."
