“Pitiful humans. You don’t know what you are doing,” Eranikus laughed arrogantly. “Pitiful! None of you know what you are doing! The Lord’s goals have already been achieved! Moonglade and Malfurion will perish!”
“Idiot. ‘Humans, humans, humans.’ You’re only a line of code,” the players fired back.
“And you! You little monster!” Eranikus roared as he turned back to Remulos, “You can’t compare to your father. If I wanted to, I could kill you in one strike! Let Stormrage come and face me himself. As for you…You can just stay in the corner.”
“Eranikus, you were once a great Dragon. Now, you are reduced to a mere beast. You didn’t expect us to summon you near Malfurion did you? Eranikus, your salvation is here. You will be cleansed and be cleared of all corruption.”
“Salvation! How dare you! Only my god can save me!” Eranikus cried out as he went into a fit of rage.
The Nightmare, in the form of black mist, began to gather in Moonglade. The once tranquil and pure Moonglade was now stained with the black mist. Eranikus was clearly using one of his ultimate skills. The collective power of the players wasn’t anywhere near enough to interrupt the casting.
Remulos frowned and helplessly looked at Lu Li.
“Find somewhere to hide. You guys won’t be able to take a magic of this calibre.”
“My friend. For us, dying in battle is glorious,” Lu Li chuckled. Despite Lu Li saying this, the world channel indicated for everyone to use mitigation. If they really couldn’t take the damage, then retreating was suggested.
The Eranikus of today, the Tyrant of the Dream, was no longer considered as a Wild Boss. Categorising Eranikus as a World Boss was also reasonable.
“Lu Li, you’re being naughty again. How can we run?” some people responded in the world channel.
“That’s right! If I miss this, I would regret it for my whole life!”
“If we die, we die! So be it. Oh, that’s right. I accidentally looted a few items, so I’ll broadcast them later. If you dropped them, then ask me.”
“Damn it, now that you’ve said that, someone like me wouldn’t be able to face the world since my income relies heavily on looting equipment. Anyway, I’ve looted more than ten equips today. Come find me to get them back. Make sure you have screenshots as proof!”
“I dropped an item, but it was worth it to be able to come here and battle!”
The world channel was filled with messages. It was as if the mere presence of the players gave them glory.
Even if the players didn’t experience this event, it would surely be written in the tales of legends. Countless players collected materials and rushed forward to fight against Eranikus, the World Boss.
This quest was a ‘half-solo’ quest. This meant that before the completion of the quest, anyone could join in.
However, when the quest was completed by someone, the later quests would be strange.
Simply put, if someone completed the quest, then the next Opening the Door quest would be a mere
formality. Perhaps some people would think that it was a good thing, since there was less to do.
However, only people who had experienced the battle would understand.
This was a sight to behold, fighting against an annihilator-class being like this. It was utterly unforgettable.
Confronted with countless players who keep rushing forward, Eranikus’ rage grew. He began to chant, “Come forth, my Nightmare servants! Come and destroy this world! Do not leave any survivors!”

This ultimate skill was obviously a summoning skill. Countless Nightmare Illusions suddenly filled Nighthaven’s sky. They were all black-coloured spirits that floated in the sky and rushed towards the players.
Players and monsters had clear differences, but there was one peculiar difference – players could work together while monsters couldn’t.
There were Main Tanks, Healers and DPS players. Unless they could instantly kill everyone, the balance of the battle would always tip towards the players.
However, there were too many Nightmare Illusions.
One of them was fine to deal with, but once they flooded the battlefield, the smaller squads would be destroyed quickly. The Nightmare Illusion that destroyed a squad would then move onto the next.
“Where is your god? How long can you last against my attacks?”
“Us adventurers don’t need saviours or gods,” a voice boomed.
Everyone turned around to look.
Sorrowless?
What was he doing here?
Was he here to obstruct Ruling Sword from completing the quest?
Actually, anyone could join the battle today, including Horde players. This was because Moonglade was an area that both Allied and Horde players could enter. Both camps’ Druids belonged to the same group here.
Once all the Horde players saw Sorrowless, their mood became complicated.
Sorrowless was considered as the Horde players’ morale leader.
Everyone was a little disappointed. Why did Sorrowless want to throw a wrench in the works at this time?
“This is an event for every player. Naturally, Glory Capital wouldn’t miss out on this,” Sorrowless said, then looked towards the Ruling Sword camp and yelled, “There are no camps, no factions and no clubs today! The Asia server will be the first to complete the Door quest!”
As he waved his hands, countless Glory Capital players rushed into Nighthaven.
“Holy crap. Scared the living daylights out of me,” Lu Li said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead. He truly thought that Sorrowless was here to screw him over. If Sorrowless really wanted to screw him over, then Ruling Sword was doomed to fail.
Although Peerless City and Drizzle Court’s players were fighting as well, they weren’t a part of the group that received the quest. They weren’t any different to the other random players.
If that time came, then nothing would happen for Remulos and Azeroth. However, Ruling Sword would be penalised heavily for quest failure. Lu Li didn’t know what the punishment would be, but anyone could guess that it was something that they would be unable to take on.
Afterwards, everyone was stunned as they looked at waves of waves of players joining the battle, led by many notable figures in the gaming world.
There were players from Blood Red War Flag, Wings of Dawn, Gale Legion and many other clubs. Most of the top 100 clubs were all here.
Even players from the Gangnam Royals were at the battle.
“Ruling Sword will not immediately enter the Instance Dungeon upon the completion of this quest. I swear it. We’ll discuss for a time when everyone can enter, so that we can all begin at the same time.”
Lu Li seemed to be infected by the atmosphere too. Otherwise, he never would have promised something this stupid.
