Chapter 149: Common enemy no. 1 [1]
Back in the beginner domain, Lord Doom and his crew did some pretty crazy things, ridiculing the top guilds and as a result, they were public enemy no. 1 now in the Heavenly Domain.
After the initial ambush on Lord Doom led by Jonathan, there was no such obvious ambush anymore as on the combat side, they let guild Echelon breath.
In a way, it could also be translated to them admitting defeat.
Afterall, it was no news that facing God Noah in combat was a nightmare. To them, it was the last resort.
They would only resort to violence if all other plans were rendered moot.
With violence out of the way, in the borders of the Labyrinthine Expanse between the Ashen Dunes and the Obsidian Wastes, they let guild Echelon build their headquarters in peace.
But this reprieve was only restricted to violence.
In other areas that a guild can grow in the Heavenly Domain, the top guilds did not hesitate to frustrate guild Echelon’s efforts, concentrating on their efforts to build a landmark guild headquarters in the Labyrinthine Expanse.
The world of Warstar was modeled after the real world in a lot of ways, just more fantastical. Just like in the real world, people needed resources to build mansions. Guild Echelon also needed resources to build their headquarters.
They may not be attacking guild Echelon on the open directly, but underground, in the business and trade aspects of the Heavenly Domain, the top guilds frustrated Echelon’s efforts to get building materials.
Afterall, due to their deep foundations in the Heavenly Domain, a lot of things circulated through them, even trades with certain NPCs.
