457 Title (2/2)

There, they not only monopolized all the best resource points, they also often went to the sea to fight against pirates. They traveled from Heilongjiang in the north to Yunnan Dali, and not only did they run into pirates, they usually entered the territories of other nearby countries.

Right now, since they could not communicate with the players from Russia, Vietnam, North Korea, and South Korea due to language barriers, both sides thought that the other players were NPC pirates, and when they ran into each other, they fought…

No one knew the details of the fights, but Towering Palace managed to prosper. They enjoyed going to the sea and had a major operation almost every day, which made it clear that they never suffered any losses!

On Towering Palace's side, Clear Music was known as the calmest and wisest queen.

When she moved, she would create music. She was the Music Empress, Clear Music!

But unfortunately, not a single person in Towering Palace was fit to take up the title of duke.

Merciless Saber and Loving Sword were at most top-tier fighters. They were at the same level as Evil Wolf and Monk with Thick Eyebrows, which meant that they were not at the same level as Blood Robes, Lin Xiao, and the others.

*****

In the map of the world which the three great lords divided into equal territories, many players found a territory that did not belong to any of the three great sects. It was a territory that belonged to a player sect that was not affiliated to the three great sects, and it was growing stronger at an astonishing speed!

Baokang!

It was situated to the north of Changjiang, and it was near Changjiang itself, but there was no Class One Hall force nearby, and Chivalry Sect did not take it into its territory either. The area was also some distance away from the coastal territories.

The dozen cities around Baokang were independent of the three great forces. They belonged to the China server, but they were not controlled by anyone.

Mu Clan proclaimed itself king there!

It was developing at a fast pace and showed sings of becoming the fourth great power in China!

Since all Class One Hall branches in the south had been destroyed, Mu Clan took over nearly half of them and divided the various resource points with Chivalry Sect equally in a straightforward manner.

In the beginning, they had only set up eight branches in the area with Baokang at its center, but after some time passed, they had no fewer than fifteen branches to the south of Changjiang. In total, they had more than twenty branches!

Because of it, Mu Clan swiftly developed to a sect with nearly forty thousand people!

There were more than seven thousand people in War Hall. They were still in their initial stages, but they already possessed fighting power that surpassed what a normal large sect could field.

On top of that, Mu Clan's players who focused on occupations had been distributed equally among the resource points managed by the twenty or so branches. The profit they gained every day was impressive, and Mu Clan's storage was rumored to possess more than fifty billion taels of silver worth of resources.

They used their vast pool of resources as a foundation and swiftly developed a Pill Refinement Hall, Divine Weapon Hall, and Armor Forging Hall aside from their clan prison.

Not only did many herbalists like Pomelo pop up, forgemasters like Heartless Iron also came to them. They all received breakthroughs in their craft.

The herbalists made a grade two medicinal pill called Origin Leopard Pill. Whoever ate it gained 20% damage, 10% attack speed as well as movement speed, and 10% defense for two hours

They also created a grade two poison called Impure Arsenic Trioxide. When it was put on a weapon, the poison was effective for two hours. The abilities of those who got poisoned by it were instantly reduced by 60%.

If the poisoned person did not take in any strong antidote within three minutes, they would die. But even if the poisoned person took a strong antidote, they still needed half a minute to completely get rid of the poison.

Quite a number of elites from Mu Clan also received titles.

The man with three corpses and ten thousand poisons became Ten Thousand Poison Duke Little North!

The man who commanded armies was Mechanism Duke Thunderous Battle!

The woman with Throw Spirit Sphere was Throw Spirit Duchess Momo!

The man with the silver mask was Silver Mask Duke Silver Wolf!

There was also Happy, who was known as an invincible player along with the mysterious One Emperor and who had never known defeat in the hands of a player. As of then, both their strengths were unfathomable and could not be measured.
