For every powerful enemy slain, a black circle mark was branded onto the left chest. Their attire blended natural wildness with the mysterious colors of ancient tribal eras, creating a style with immense visual impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every adult Giant Python clansman tied a blood-red ribbon around their left hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to records in the Star Net database, in ancient times the Giant Python Clan faced an unprecedented crisis: alien invasions and natural disasters struck their homeland world one after another, nearly driving the clan to extinction. In this moment of despair, a hero named \"Blood Fang\" stepped forward, turning the Black Tide of a war that had nearly wiped out their race all by himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During that war, Blood Fang's left hand was accidentally severed by an enemy. He wrapped his injured, broken wrist in bandages and chose to lead his clansmen to continue fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was this unyielding courage, this vow to defend their homeland unto death, that ignited an unprecedented cohesion and combat power within the Giant Python Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since then, tying a blood-red ribbon to the left hand became a cultural tradition of the Giant Python Clan. Every year, on the day of the \"Blood Fang Festival,\" adult clansmen were bestowed with these ribbons, symbolizing their becoming guardians of the clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although nearly 190 years had passed since arriving on Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-red ribbon remained an indispensable part of Giant Python culture, serving as the bond transmitting their spiritual faith, connecting the past with the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star Net database recorded words spoken by the third clan leader of the Giant Python Clan after arriving on Earth: \"Though the sky we look up to is no longer the same as our ancestors', we flow with the same blood as our forebears and carry the same dream of great rejuvenation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although their nature was combative, it was precisely because they shared the same history and cultural heritage that the Giant Python Clan was extremely united internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The West District of Blood Slaughter City was inhabited by the Night Demon Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This clan arrived on Earth at roughly the same time as the Giant Python Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every adult Night Demon clansman stood nearly two meters tall, with a slender build and smooth, flowing muscles even without deliberate training. Their skin displayed blue-purple hues. They preferred dim, cold environments, and in a state of combat, they resembled a crouching leopard, possessing astonishing explosive power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After integrating into Earth, the Night Demon Clan underwent tremendous changes due to the cultural shock from various races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they first arrived, Night Demon clansmen disliked wearing clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because their homeland world enjoyed eternal spring where all things coexisted, they believed life originated from nature and should communicate with the natural world in its most primitive and pure state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their eyes, wearing clothes was a self-imposed restraint that abandoned closeness to nature; only nudity represented a return to nature and an embrace of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after descending upon Earth and connecting to the Star Net, the mindset of the new generation of Night Demon clansmen shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star Net world exposed them to too much external information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This information broadened the horizons of the Night Demon members, causing them to reflect on their traditional culture and customs. Values once taken for granted were questioned, sparking fierce clashes between tradition and modernity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This change did not happen overnight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Members of the first two generations of the Night Demon Clan had even proposed withdrawing from the Star Net to uphold their original values, launching many internal education programs in an attempt to correct the changing thoughts of their clansmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the torrent of information brought by numerous entertainment products like films, novels, and games could not be stopped. After the third generation appeared following their arrival on Earth, the situation reversed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new generation completely overturned the old generation's ideas, freely choosing their lifestyles and beginning to wear clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their original traditions were reclassified as intangible cultural heritage, such as the \"Nature Festival\" held once a year. On this day, all Night Demon members would remove their clothes to celebrate together and give thanks to nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although customs had changed, the primitive wildness that cherished nature remained deep within the bones of the Night Demon Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the Giant Python Clan, they greatly revered combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their homeland world, the Night Demon Clan held a Blood Sacrifice Day every year, recording warriors' growth by hunting large numbers of beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To this day, the blood of combat still flowed within their bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, the Night Demon Clan and the Giant Python Clan had attempted to integrate with other races, but conflicts frequently erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To solve this problem, the Star Net proposed a concept of merging the two clans to jointly build a city, releasing the combat desires of warriors from both clans through fighting tournaments organized internally by the two groups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facts proved that this decision solved the problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, the two clans held fighting tournaments between warriors every year to wear down their combat desires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After virtual games emerged, players from both clans became frequent patrons of virtual games, either fighting or on their way to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But compared to virtual games, warriors of both clans preferred real-world combat tournaments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was simple: warriors of both clans felt virtual games lacked realism and could not provide the exhilarating joy of life-or-death struggle found in reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Python Clan and the Night Demon Clan were also among the races with the lowest virtual game online rates in the Earth Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood Slaughter City Star Net.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Berserk Warrior Ah Lin: \"Anyone up for a D-rank match challenge?

The link downloaded the genuine version of Dark Land. After entering the game, there is perfect physical performance. Screenshots aren't possible, so I can't provide useful info.

Perfect physical performance is exactly the virtual world we long for. I disagree with reporting the link.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the Giant Python Clan Leader's statement, the Night Demon Clan Leader, who had blue-purple skin and two fangs protruding from the corners of his mouth, suddenly stood up and slammed his palm fiercely onto the conference table:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Da Long, since this matter involves the Moon Eclipse Clan, we should report it to them. Do not forget our miserable state when we first arrived. If not for the technology and resources provided by the Moon Eclipse Clan, we would not be standing here today.

I demand we report this to the Moon Eclipse Clan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the Night Demon Clan Leader assume a posture ready to fight, the hot-tempered Giant Python Clan Leader, Da Long, also rose to his feet:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hei Mo, the Star Net monitors the entire network; it is only a matter of time before the cracked versions downloaded via the link are banned.

continue using them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That the always rigid Moon Eclipse Clan would actually agree clearly exceeded the Night Demon Clan Chief's expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately offered repeated thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the subsequent exchange, the Archon began asking more questions about the cracked version, to which the Night Demon Clan Chief answered everything he knew without reservation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the Star Net began investigating and understanding the distribution of qualifications,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>large numbers of players from the Giant Python Clan and the Night Demon Clan logged into the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through statistics compiled by the Guide, Qi Sheng, observing from behind the scenes, discovered that 93.52% of players from the two clans had chosen close-combat physical-type Soul Souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these players, nearly half had initially chosen the Stone Statue build for their Soul Souls; everything was unfolding exactly as anticipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Python and Night Demon players who entered the game appeared exceptionally excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many Giant Python and Night Demon players engaged in live combat within the novice scenarios to test the realism feedback of the environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results they obtained left them extremely satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as advertised, the game Dark Lands possessed combat feedback that perfectly simulated real-world physical performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this behavior also resulted in nearly 300 players from the two clans entering the one-hour resurrection cooldown before they had even properly explored the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this period, an interesting piece of data emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to feedback from the Guide's investigation, the average pain feedback for Giant Python and Night Demon players had been adjusted to 52.8%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, to better obtain combat feedback, none of them liked the 10% pain feedback limit;

they did not dodge, only attacking blindly, much like the Blissful Evil Spirits created by the Lord of Bliss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difference was that he could see every Shu Yan clan warrior possessed self-awareness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, they were just noobs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in certain local areas, individual Shu Yan clan warriors were implausibly fierce, as if possessed by a god of war, capable of fighting Ascended clan warriors above their own level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sight made Qi Sheng frown involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from players, fighting above one's level was extremely difficult for all races of life in the Monster World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because the concept of Hunting Level, from its initial design, included the target's physical strength, mental strength, and ability characteristics;
