The death of the Rock King meant that the Rock Giant gathering point was now in their possession.
With two monster gathering points on Heavenly Thunder Island, they had secured nearly an eighth of the island's control, becoming one of its ruling powers.
As the Rock King's body slowly dissipated, a towering pillar of light shot upward, piercing straight into the sky.
The golden beam of light was so bright that even players far outside Heavenly Thunder Island could clearly see it.
"What happened over there?"
"What's with that pillar of light?"
"The pillar of light is coming from the Rock Giant gathering point, isn't it?"
"Send an observer over there right now to see what's going on!"
At that moment, players both on and off Heavenly Thunder Island nearly all turned their gaze toward the spot where the golden pillar of light had risen.
As the observers from the various major factions checked through their water mirrors, every player outside the island was stunned. The Rock Giant gathering point that all the major factions had abandoned now had only two Rock Guards left—the Primordial-species Rock King was gone…
"Where did the Rock King go?"
"Did they… No way! That's a Primordial species. How could fifty people possibly take it down?"
Though the others found it extremely hard to believe that Zero Wing's fifty-man raid had accomplished this, no matter how carefully they observed the Rock Giant gathering point, they could not find the massive form of the Rock King anywhere. All that remained was the pillar of light rising from the jumbled pile of stone.
No matter how reluctant they were, they had to admit it.
Zero Wing's fifty-man team had claimed the Rock Giant gathering point.
In an instant, every observer transmitted what they had seen back to the high-ranking members of their respective factions inside the island.
"How is this possible? How much time has even passed? Zero Wing has already secured the second monster gathering point before us!"
"How did they pull this off?"
While the various factions had been surprised by Zero Wing's clearing speed before, a boss was still a boss—raw speed alone wasn't enough to handle one.
Yet now Zero Wing had not only finished clearing the outer mobs but had also quickly dispatched the Rock King. This was impossible to ignore.
Even Feng Qianyu was shaken by the staggering news.
"They actually succeeded!" Feng Qianyu looked at Zero Wing, who had truly killed the Rock King, and felt an indescribable sense of shock.
Two monster gathering points—at the current pace, even the other superpowers had only managed about the same. But those superpowers commanded far larger player bases than they did.
If they had enough manpower, and if they hadn't wasted so much time fighting the Nine Dragons Emperor earlier, the number of monster gathering points they could have claimed would surely have been even higher.
But compared to the excited Feng Qianyu, the Nine Dragons Emperor and his people looked at the scene with faces so cold they could have frozen everything around them.
