He turned toward the source and spotted a female player from Whispering Bamboo issuing orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his position, he could only see her in profile. Was she the guild leader? Or maybe a high-ranking officer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way, calling for melee fighters to retreat was the smart move. Unfortunately, not everyone shared that level of awareness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's on the ground! Shield Tanks, get up there and hold the line!\" Marcus Skeiner's voice thundered across the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, Blade Syndicate had the largest presence in Duskridge—over eight thousand members had answered the call. Marcus had practically mobilized his entire guild.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss… it's level 99…\" A hesitant Shield Tank barely got the words out before the Evolved Ancient Riftwalker stomped him into paste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't the only one. More than a hundred melee players, nearly all from Blade Syndicate were crushed in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marcus cursed. \"I don't care—keep attacking! All ranged classes, hit it with everything you've got!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind wasn't on the casualties. A level 99 Demigod-tier boss? If it dropped even a Dark Gold item, the rewards would be more than worth the losses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blade Syndicate members, however, had no real strategy, just a mindless charge. Every time the Riftwalker even twitched, someone got sent flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, suddenly, a squad of NPC soldiers emerged. Twenty of them. All level 200 Elite NPCs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, a level 200 fighter against a level 99 monster would mean an easy victory. But in Ethereal, level wasn't everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A monster's tier mattered far more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Elite Town Guards rushed in, forming a tight perimeter around the Riftwalker. Their shields and weapons struck like relentless rain, locking the massive creature in place. For a moment, they actually managed to hold it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kraaahhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Riftwalker suddenly erupted in black fire, its burning claws swiping through the ranks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each strike sent a level 200 guard flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldiers crashed into buildings, flames consuming their bodies. Structures collapsed, the streets turning to scorched ruin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soulrend Piercing Bolt!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold, commanding voice echoed through Duskridge. A wave of deathly energy surged across the battlefield, sending chills down Ethan's spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned toward the voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roland Carter, Captain of Duskridge's First Guard Squadron, stood atop the watchtower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his hands was a massive crossbow, nearly five feet long. It looked… plain. No excessive decorations, just a simple, well-crafted weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, It gleamed with seven-colored light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan's eyes narrowed. What tier of weapon was that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something else struck him as odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time he'd seen Roland, the man had a sheathed longsword at his waist and a shield on his back. Ethan had assumed he was a Shield Tank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now? A crossbow user?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shield on his back, sword at his side—was that supposed to look cool?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Riftwalker, still controlled by the Crowling God, must have sensed the danger. It struggled violently, trying to break free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with thousands of Shield Tanks and a squad of elite NPC defenders pinning it down, it couldn't move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Demigod-tier boss… but still only level 99. For the first time in this fight—it was vulnerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the Riftwalker's overwhelming power, the relentless attacks had slowed it down considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh—BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roland Carter finally fired. The Soulrend Piercing Bolt tore through the air with a deafening sonic boom. And went straight through the Riftwalker's skull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire bolt sank into its body. Yet, strangely, it dealt no damage. For a brief moment, the Riftwalker's body stiffened. Then, thick black mist burst from its eyes, nostrils, and mouth, spiraling into the air with an agonized shriek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn you humans! That wretched Soulbreaker Crossbow… You've wounded my very soul! I will never forgive this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice of the Crowling God, Anzu echoed within the dissipating darkness, its presence slowly fading from the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan narrowed his eyes. It worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Riftwalker's obsidian-black eyes turned blood-red. Anzu's control had been shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, Its evolved form didn't revert. Its power remained the same. Only now, it had lost all rationality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It rampaged blindly, attacking everything in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan glanced back at Roland's weapon. That crossbow… it was specialized for soul-based attacks. So that's why it was glowing with seven-colored light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan suddenly felt a lot less interested in this fight. With Anzu gone, the Riftwalker was no longer a major threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked the battlefield. Everyone was too focused on the chaos to notice him slipping away. Ethan took the opportunity to sneak toward the northern gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he reached it, a massive army of over eight thousand players charged toward the town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leading the front was Skyblade, Slashblade, and SeraphWarrior. Behind them, Lyla accompanied by her pet. And behind her, the rest of the eight-thousand-strong force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right at the town's entrance, Ethan and the advancing guild locked eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skyblade, Slashblade, and SeraphWarrior stopped in their tracks upon recognizing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan blinked. 'Huh?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, what are you guys doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skyblade stepped forward. \"Boss, the system broadcasted your coordinates inside Duskridge. We thought you were trapped—so we came to rescue you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyla approached as well, concern in her eyes. \"Are you okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan looked at his guildmates, his heart warming at their loyalty. These guys… really came all this way just to save him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm fine,\" he said, smiling. \"Thanks, everyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skyblade turned back to the guild.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss is safe! Charge into the city and loot the boss!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan's warm feelings instantly evaporated. Something felt… off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lifting his foot, he kicked Skyblade square in the chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You bastard! You used me as an excuse to gather everyone just so you could farm loot, didn't you?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skyblade, still recovering from the kick, stammered awkwardly. \"N-no, of course not! We were already here… figured we might as well, y'know, make the most of it…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan massaged his temples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Forget it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath and issued orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pull back. That boss isn't dropping anything useful. Instead, split into teams and start securing territory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skyblade looked disappointed. \"We're not taking Duskridge?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan glanced around at the wrecked town. Taking it over now would mean massive repair costs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they fully rebuilt it, taxed it at 5%, and managed a steady income, It would still take at least six months to break even.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn't an investment. It was a financial sinkhole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't taking the bait. Whoever was dumb enough to claim Duskridge right now could have it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Ethan had to bet, that fool was probably Marcus Skeiner.\u003C\u002Fp>",1094,"2026-06-02T11:41:20.825Z",1,"novelbin.me","17c992dabbcaf114afc66d443eda37ccffdded673d25473296420e69fd146f12","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-134","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-132",946,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-cover.jpg"]
