Virtual Ascension: Awakening the Supreme Talent
Chapter 72 – Safe Zone Defense Battle
"Ding~ Player [King's Glory] has sent a friend request through ID search!"
Just as Storm Angel was looking in the direction Storm Fantasy pointed, a notification sound suddenly chimed.
Seeing that it was King's Glory adding him as a friend, Storm Angel frowned slightly but accepted the request.
Immediately, King's Glory sent a message—
"Storm Crap, listen up! If you dare to compete with us, King's World, for the BOSS, I'll make you regret it!"
Looking around, Storm Angel could see from just a couple of hundred meters away, behind another pile of ruins, King's Glory flipping them off!
Storm Angel quickly replied, "Talk with your skills. Whoever gets it, gets it. Stop with the empty threats!"
King's Glory: "Then let's fight and see who's better!"
Storm Angel: "Sure, bring it on if you dare!"
King's Glory: "Come over here, you coward!"
Storm Angel: "You come here, trash!"
King's Glory: "You come here, loser!"
In reality, with the BOSS possibly being taken down at any moment, neither King's World nor the Storm Family dared to start a fight easily, as they might inadvertently miss the BOSS, letting solo players take it, which would be a huge loss.
So Storm Angel and King's Glory exchanged insults in private chat, cursing each other's ancestors, but neither made a move, even though they were only a few hundred meters apart.
At the entrance of Hope Town, the BOSS battle was still raging. When the Skeleton King's health dropped to 70%, it suddenly started moving towards the Safe Zone!
"Stop it! Don't let it enter and destroy the Safe Zone!"
With a shout from the crowd, countless players surrounded the Skeleton King, and many even climbed up its legs like ants, trying to prevent it from entering the Safe Zone.
But the players' strength was no match for the Skeleton King.
Ignoring the players' obstruction, the Golden Skeleton King swung its giant sword, "clang," destroying the seven or eight-meter-high wall outside the Safe Zone, then stepped in!
Boom!
Inside the Safe Zone, the Skeleton King lifted its foot and kicked over an eight-story building, crushing dozens of players and NPCs on the street.
Crash—
Boom boom boom!

The giant sword swept across, cutting several buildings in half, causing them to collapse on both sides. The Skeleton King began to wreak havoc in the Safe Zone!
Meanwhile, area announcements kept echoing in the ears of all players in Zone 886—
"Ding~ Please note, the Golden Skeleton King has invaded the Safe Zone and is causing damage. Current Safe Zone damage level: 1%!"
"Ding~ Please note, the Golden Skeleton King has invaded the Safe Zone and is causing damage. Current Safe Zone damage level: 2%!"
"Ding..."
"Ding~ Safe Zone damage level has reached 10%. All players, please defend your home. If the damage level reaches 70%, all players in Zone 886 will face death penalties!"
"Damn!"
Behind the ruins outside the Safe Zone, Storm Angel was shocked by the system prompt: "If this continues, the Safe Zone will be destroyed. Hurry back to defend!"
So, as the Storm Family players rushed out from behind the ruins, on the other side, the King's World players also emerged from another pile of ruins.
King's Glory: "What are you looking at? No time to fight you now!"
Storm Dragon King: "Pah! Once we take down the BOSS, watch me crush your King's World trash!"
King's Return: "The BOSS is ours, King's World. Storm Family trash, stop dreaming!"
"Ding~ Safe Zone damage level has reached 15%..."
The system prompt sounded again.
Both King's World and Storm Family, with thousands of players, rushed towards the Safe Zone.
It turned out that the average strength of players from both major teams was indeed stronger than those solo players.
With the addition of King's World and Storm Family players, the BOSS's movements were significantly restricted, and under the attack of both major teams and countless solo players, it gradually retreated outside the Safe Zone!
The battle continued smoothly for another hour.
The Skeleton King's health had dropped to 29%, passing the mutation phase without triggering a mutation!
Then, the health dropped to 15%, 14%...
At this moment, King's World players revealed their true colors, starting to slaughter the surrounding solo players!
Slash slash slash!
Several solo players, who were fully focused on fighting the BOSS, were caught off guard and killed by nearby King's World players, turning into white light and disappearing.
Panic spread among the crowd.
A level 16 Warrior among the solo players, holding a long sword, looked incredulously at King's Supreme, who had just stabbed another solo player to death: "King's World! What do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean? Sending you to heaven!" As soon as he finished speaking, King's Supreme charged forward, killing the wounded Warrior with a few strikes!
Then, King's Glory shouted, "If you don't want to die, get lost! The BOSS belongs to us, King's World!"
"Why? We fought it together, why should we give it to you?"
"Why? Because of strength!" With that, King's Glory drew his bow and, with his teammates, shot the speaking Mage player dead!
Due to the system's protection, the Red Name system was temporarily disabled, so even after killing several players, King's Glory's ID remained white, as he continued to shoot at the surrounding solo players, with countless white lights flashing and screams echoing.
Under the massacre by King's World players, coupled with the Golden Skeleton King's rampage, the solo players gradually gave up resisting and scattered.
They didn't dare to offend King's World for a single BOSS.
Even the top-ranked Yinuo Qingcheng was killed by King's Glory for offending him, let alone these solo players.
Some smaller families and teams, unwilling to hand over the nearly defeated BOSS, openly resisted King's World, only to be annihilated by them.
While slaughtering players, King's Glory kept an eye on the BOSS's health.
Unknowingly, the Skeleton King's health had dropped to 10%. The first kill of the level 20, 1-star BOSS Golden Skeleton King was his for the taking!
However, at this moment, another player force charged out from the Safe Zone...
The Storm Family!
