The first underground level of the headquarters.

Under 's lead, the group followed the corridor down the stairs and arrived before a solemn, imposing sealed chamber. Ten NPC guards stood at attention on either side of the entrance, silently watching over the door.

When the group saw the elite personal guards on duty, they were secretly stunned.

Every one of these NPC guards was Level 75 or above. Two of them were particularly recognizable — both were Mythril-rank personal guards, the kind of top-tier guards that every major power was desperate to get their hands on.

The Level 76 Tier 2 Summoner was Water Blue Rose's personal guard, and the Level 76 Tier 2 Magic Knight was 's personal guard. When the two of them had obtained these personal guards, it had caused quite a stir within the guild.

Though Mythril-rank personal guards didn't possess the cross-tier combat ability of guards like Kate and Anna, they still had fighting power approaching the Tier 3 level. Even a top-tier Level 75 Tier 2 expert would be no match for them in a one-on-one duel. For the current top players who were only around Level 60, without assembling a certain scale of forces, these guards were simply unbeatable.

Yet here were two such guards stationed right in front of the sealed chamber's door. And judging by the aura and levels of the remaining guards, they were at least Iron-rank at the minimum — the kind of guards that the vast majority of executives in first-rate guilds could only hope to hire. After all, Mythril-rank personal guards were far too rare, even more scarce than Epic-grade items.

A guard squad of this caliber was typically the kind of force that major first-rate guilds or even superpowers deployed to protect their guild vaults. Yet here they were, guarding a single sealed chamber…

How could the group not be surprised?

However, once they stepped inside the chamber, everyone was dumbfounded.

The entire chamber was remarkably small — barely enough to hold a hundred people. And aside from a magic circle inscribed in the center, there was absolutely nothing else inside. It looked nothing like a place that warranted Mythril-rank personal guards.

"Everyone, step into the magic circle," Shi Feng said with a faint smile at the bewildered expressions on everyone's faces, without offering much explanation.

Following Shi Feng's instructions, the group formed teams of ten, with Shi Feng entering the magic circle first.

Once inside the magic circle, Shi Feng placed magic crystals into it, and immediately, everyone within the circle transformed into a streak of white light and vanished from the others' sight.

Seeing this, everyone understood. One group after another stepped into the magic circle.

After what felt like an eternity, when the group opened their eyes, a town that was both familiar and unfamiliar appeared before them. It was the Lost Town, situated in the Bone-Devouring Land.

The Lost Town was no longer the desolate wasteland it had once been, with dilapidated houses and buildings everywhere and not a single NPC in sight.

Now, although the streets weren't exactly teeming with NPCs, dozens of them could be seen going about their activities. , restaurants, and inns had sprung up all over the place.

The entire Lost Town had taken on the appearance of a small border town.

But unlike other NPC towns, the Lost Town also boasted several magnificent ancient structures. These buildings were inscribed with very old divine script and patterns, exuding an air of majesty and solemnity. The most striking among them was undoubtedly the white square tower at the center, atop which a pitch-black orb floated, radiating a terrifying aura of pressure that made people instinctively reluctant to approach.

Most importantly, the magic density of the entire town was on par with that of Stone Forest Town, and the magic density around the central white tower was even denser — practically comparable to Wing Town.

"This is incredible! What kind of place is this?"
