Is this really a Game?!

The outposts they had built to keep track of the holes in the barrier were often destroyed by the monsters as the outposts themselves weren't really that well-defended, but Reign made sure to have a small teleport station inside that would return them back to the territory.

The small teleport station was not really a station, just a glowing circle on the ground whose only function was to teleport people back to the territory, but it would only work for those that were residents of the territory, other people using it would be impossible.

With the small teleporter there, nobody died as they would immediately use it to leave after seeing monsters approach the territory. Of course, before leaving, they would sound the alarm to let people know that monsters were approaching.

It started off small and the monsters were mostly Tier II, with some Tier III monsters mixed with them. With each passing day, however, the size of the monster groups and their overall strength increased.

There had been no sighting of any Tier IV monsters, they were after all incredibly powerful beings at this stage of the game and even the enemy organization might not have a Tier IV being amongst them.

Reign doubted that, however.

Since they had started attacking them, they had to know that the territory right now had 2 Tier IV combatants, and they would definitely not attack them without possessing a similar, or probably higher strength.

With how the vision went, Reign was certain that the organization had also made contact with the demons, whether they were the ones from the mountain range or some other place, he did not know, but he remembered the scenes from the brief vision of the future vividly and knew that there were multiple Tier IV combatants there.

At the very least, the enemy would have 4 or 5 Tier IV combatants amongst them, a number that was more than enough to defeat the territory without Reign and the others being present.

Greenie was powerful enough to fight against 2 low-grade Tier IV combatants by himself, but he could fight against them, not necessarily defeat them.

The same went for Aelrinder.

If the enemy had more than 4 Tier IV combatants, then they would definitely have the upper hand and would be able to slowly chip away at their defenses and tire out the two men before dealing the decisive blow and slaughtering everyone.

Reign thought that the enemy would probably wait until the barriers were gone, but he now doubted that.

The attacks from monsters were increasing in frequency and intensity, and he was certain that the enemy was only doing so in order to see how the territory would respond.

It wouldn't take long before they would send out more powerful groups that would take them a lot of effort to defeat, and they might even send some low-grade Tier IV monsters with them as well.

Even though Tier IV monsters were incredibly powerful, Reign was certain that the enemy had a way to get some under their control. The weakest of Tier IV monsters were after all not as powerful as Reign and the others and it wouldn't take them much to defeat them, but it would be enough for the organization to check whether Reign and the others were present or not.

After all, the enemy had no idea that Reign had the vision and that he knew what was going to happen. It was only natural to assume that if he and the others were there, they would show themselves and immediately eliminate any danger that came close to the territory and wouldn't just send out Aelrinder and Greenie to do so.

His thoughts came true after about 5 days had passed since he had talked with the queen. Two Tier IV monsters suddenly appeared near the territory, and the people that were inside the outpost nearly died even though they had sounded the alarm and immediately went to the teleport station in order to leave.

The speed of a Tier IV monster was not something that the players that were inside the outpost could even comprehend as the monsters were able to cross a distance of a couple of hundred meters in a second, almost costing them their lives.

As the players returned to the territory and told people what had happened and why they had sounded the main alarm, the people got a bit restless, until they were able to see Greenie coming out of the building and making his way toward the outpost.

With Greenie and Aelrinder arriving, the two monsters immediately charged at them, only to be beaten by the two men. The battle was almost over before another alarm sounded off, there was a third Tier IV monster that had appeared and Aelrinder was one to quickly make way to it as he was faster than Greenie.

The doubts of the residents had increased as even though something as dangerous as this had happened, there was no sight of Reign or anyone else.

People already suspected that they were gone, sent to another world in order to evolve yet again, but nobody had clear proof.

This, however, was all the people needed to be certain that their thoughts were correct. Greenie didn't keep up appearances either and told them the truth.

The golden tree shone brightly and a barrier was created around the territory while numerous traps had been placed. Reign had personally bought and placed the traps, and there were quite a lot of them that were perfectly hidden so that the enemy would not notice them.

The enemy only knew that Reign and the others had bought and placed a lot of traps back when they were Tier III, which would mean that Tier IV beings did not need to be worried about the.

The truth was that that was not the case at all as Reign had bought a couple of traps that were enough to heavily wound Tier IV beings as well, thanks to how much they cost, however, he was only able to purchase a few of them.

Even with all the money the territory made thanks to the taxes, traps that could deal with Tier IV beings were still a luxury and Reign simply could not afford enough to deal with all of the Tier IV combatants that the enemy was going to send at them.

The news of an enemy organization coming to attack them spread through the territory and people got restless. Reign and the others didn't hide the fact that they were targeted by the organization in the past so people knew just who was attacking them, but they never expected them to dare and attack their territory.

One had to know that not only were they buffed inside the territory, but they also had the powerful barrier that the golden tree provided. That, coupled with the numerous traps and the existence of Reign and the others made sure that nobody would dare mess with them, but with Reign and the others not being present, the enemy was bold enough to do so.

They knew just how powerful Reign and the others were, and even though they had plotted and planned things for a long time, they were not confident at all that they would be able to defeat the group when they were all together.

This was a golden opportunity to destroy the territory and take over it. With them taking over the territory, they would gain immense benefits while at the same time removing the same from Reign and the others.

The organization didn't plan to occupy Doncaster, they knew that when Reign and the others arrived back, they would immediately want revenge and would come here, which was why they would simply ransack the place for everything it was worth before capturing all the people they could and forcing them to come back to their headquarters.

They would of course also leave a 'gift' for Reign and the others that would make sure they never forgot about what had happened.

They didn't care for Reign and the others being enraged by their actions as their headquarters was special and they were confident that they would never be able to find it.

And only two days after the three Tier IV monsters had attacked Doncaster, a much larger group of monsters appeared near Doncaster.

There were hundreds of monsters present in the group. Demons could be seen amongst them, humans, and even some other races that nobody had come across before. They had numerous Tier III beings in the large group, and one could also sense the existence of multiple Tier IV combatants as well.
