Is this really a Game?!

Any lies they spoke would be picked up by the two if Wolf didn't pick up on it beforehand.

Of course, there was no saying whether the base would be the same inside as the elders had said. Both Carlos and they had told them the same things about the inside of the base, it was always different.

Buildings and paths would move around, shifting every couple of days. Nobody knew if that was a function of the base or something the leader would do, but it made it almost impossible for any enemy to find out the layout of the base as it was never the same.

That was why, even though the elders had told them everything they knew about the inside of the base, Reign and Wolf were not that confident that it would be the same now. The ever-changing base was perfect for defense as only those that lived inside of it would know the layout, not to mention that they would be able to perhaps force the base to change again in order to trap and confuse the enemy.

For Wolf and Reign, it mattered little, however.

The enemy had lost their most powerful combatants and only one elder was left, the elder was a peak Tier III combatant, and without having any Tier IV members, the enemy would not be able to endanger Wolf and Reign.

One thing that did make them a bit apprehensive was that the base had defensive capabilities, but since they were never attacked, nobody knew exactly what kinds of defenses they had. With all of that in mind, Reign and Wolf went out of the prison and got ready to take the portal to the mountain range before going to the base.

So far, only Reign and Wolf had returned from their perspective challenges and the rest were still stuck on other planets. They had no idea when any of them would come back, so it fell to them to make sure that nobody would be able to threaten the territory.

This time, they were lucky as both  Reign and Wolf had returned rather quickly, not to mention the fact that they knew about the attack before it even happened thanks to Reign's mysterious vision.

He still had no idea how the vision came to him, or why. Was it because he was a Nephilim, or was there a different reason?

Greenie was staying back in the territory, after all, somebody had to make sure nothing would happen while the two of them were away. Even though the two heavily doubted that anything would threaten the territory in the near future, they didn't want to take any chances.

There were still demons that could perhaps go into a frenzy after hearing the news of one of their own being defeated and killed, which could lead to them abandoning their posts and attacking Doncaster.

The enemy organization might have something planned as well, as unlikely as it may be, and Reign simply wanted the territory to be perfectly safe while he and Wolf dealt with the enemy once and for all.

The two talked with Greenie for a bit before departing and going through the portal. The first mountain was now vastly different compared to before as a small village had been created around the cave in which the portal was built.

The village was nothing special, there were a couple of small shacks and houses, some stores, and about 3 buildings that sold weapons and other items. Reign had the option to build buildings that were managed by beings of other races, and he had used that to make the three here.

The weapons, potions, and armor shops were the biggest and they offered a wide variety of different items that the players could purchase. Those that didn't have the ability to fight against more powerful monsters in order to get better quality gear could spend their S Coins here or in the auction house to get items, narrowing the strength disparity between them and the higher-ranked teams.

Of course, the items were quite expensive, not as much as having a weapon made by Adrian, however. The difference was obvious though, as not only were the weapons not custom-made, but there were rarely high or top-tier items of a single rank in the shop.

When there were, they were very expensive and not a lot of people could afford them.

The highest ranked weapons inside the shop were rank S, and so far, only 2 of such items had been purchased thanks to the high price.

The safe zone around the village made sure that everyone was safe and there were even some craftsmen that had made houses here in order to enjoy the scenery. Living atop a mountain was after all more enjoyable compared to living in a town for some people.

Monsters rarely came close to the village, and when they did, they would quickly be disposed of by the players nearby, making the area quite peaceful.

Of course, the safe zone no longer worked as it used to, no longer were monsters completely blocked from entering it as it now acted as a shield that kept them outside. With enough monsters attacking, the shield could be broken.

It was incredibly difficult to do so as Reign had reinforced the shield to be able to withstand the attacks of even Tier III beings. Of course, it could only withstand a couple of attacks from such enemies, and Reign was still unable to reinforce it further. Compared to the giant shield that the golden tree could create in Doncaster, it was many times weaker.

He was uncertain if the disappearance of the barriers that separated the many regions would change anything about the safe zones and how the shields worked, if it did, then many people might have to go back to Doncaster to live there thanks to the protection of the golden tree.

Reign was confused a bit, however. The safe zones had suddenly stopped working normally, there was a simple notification from the system a couple of weeks ago and that was it.

He and the others all thought that the safe zones would stay the same until the third phase of the game started, which was when the barriers between the zones would completely disappear, causing mayhem everywhere as more powerful monsters could go into the lower-leveled areas.

He wasn't that worried about his own territory, but he was worried about the rest of the world. Those that lived in smaller safe zones and were barely strong enough to survive would get slaughtered by monsters thanks to the safe zones no longer being impenetrable, and those that lived in safe zones that were in lower-leveled areas would get decimated if powerful monsters suddenly arrived to attack them in the future.

The death toll would rise higher and higher, and no place on Earth would be safe for people if they didn't have enough strength.

Reign and Wolf said hi to the people that were coming up to them to talk before leaving. From the map they had gotten, the area where the base was located was actually to the right of the mountain range, well, to the right of where the depths of the mountain range were located at.

Reign and Wolf had never gone that deep inside the mountain range, and thanks to them knowing just how many dangers were inside thanks to the demons, they would first go through the mountain range before going right after passing the base of the demons they had once destroyed.

After that, they would travel through the area that was next to the mountain range, one they had never explored previously. Luckily for them, some of the players had ventured inside of it, and from them, they knew that the monsters there were mostly Tier II, with some low and mid-grade Tier III monsters present.

The one where the base of the enemy organization was located had never been visited by anyone since the mountain range offered more than enough places for the players to explore and hunt. Thanks to how far away the area was, no player had any interest in exploring it, making it a mystery to Reign and Wolf.

From what the elders had told Reign and Wolf, the area was mostly populated by Tier I and Tier II monsters, with some Tier III monsters present at the very back of the area. The elders had explored a bit, and they had found that at the very back of the area were many monster nests and that there was no area behind it, but the sea.

Thanks to how many Tier III monsters were present near the sea, the elders had only seen a glimpse of it before returning to the base as it was dangerous to even them.

Their leader himself had also not ventured there often as he had said that he could sense powerful auras that were above a Tier III being coming from the sea. They believed that there were many sea monsters right behind the nests of the Tier III monsters and their strength was enough to make them not visit the place anymore.
