Hikaru Kobayashi walked up to him, holding a map in his hand.
"Guild Master, everyone is ready. There are 153 people from the Dark Raven Group and 47 people from the Raging Waves Guild, for a total of 200 people."
Sato nodded without turning around.
"What about Marcus?"
Kobayashi Hikaru pushed up his glasses.
"The Imperial Wall people are also preparing. They have more people than us, about four hundred."
Sato gave a cold laugh.
"Four hundred men... That American guy certainly knows how to amass wealth."
Kobayashi Hikaru hesitated for a moment, then asked, "President, after the overlap period begins, should we look for Lin Tian first, or...?"
Sato remained silent for a few seconds.
"Find Lin Tian first."
Hikaru Kobayashi: "But what if Marcus..."
Sato raised his hand to interrupt him.
"I know Marcus. He'll definitely be hiding in the shadows, waiting for us and Lin Tian to both be severely injured."
He turned around and looked at Kobayashi Hikaru.
"Then let's make him wait. Until he thinks his chance has come—"
He gripped the knife handle tightly.
"Give him a surprise."
Kobayashi Hikaru's eyes widened slightly.
You mean...?
Sato offered no explanation.
He simply said, "Have Hattori keep a close eye on Marcus's men. Once the overlap period begins, tell me immediately, no matter where Lin Tian is."
Kobayashi Hikaru nodded: "Understood."
Sato looked back towards the intersection.
The light screen faded, and vague figures could be seen on the other side.
"Lin Tian..." he murmured, "Let me see just how strong you are."
......
Western Frontier, Imperial Barrier Camp.
Marcus sat on a boulder, holding a piece of roasted meat in his hand, eating it in large bites.
Catherine stood to the side, impatiently cracking her whip.
"Marcus, can you please stop eating? Your period is about to overlap!"
Marcus swallowed the meat in his mouth and grinned.
"What's the rush? Let them fight first."
He stood up, wiped his mouth, and a calculating glint flashed in his blue eyes.
"Vincent, where's the intelligence?"
Vincent emerged from the shadows.
"Sato's men are already moving towards the border. The Dark Raven Group and the Raging Waves Guild, about two hundred people in total."
Marcus nodded: "Where's Lin Tian?"
Vincent shook his head: "I don't know. The last time he was found was near that mountain in the East. After that, there was no news."
Marcus frowned.
"That mountain...the one with the boss?"
Vincent pointed.
Catherine sneered, "He wouldn't actually go fight the boss, would he?"
Marcus was silent for a few seconds, then laughed.
"It would be even better if he actually went to fight the boss."
He looked at the crowd.
"Whether he fought or not, once the overlap period begins, we only need to do one thing—stick close to Sato's men. Wherever they go, we go. Whoever they fight, we keep an eye on them."
Jack scratched his head: "Boss, shouldn't we make the first move?"
Marcus glanced at him.
"Don't move. Let them move first."
He clenched his fists, his blue eyes burning with ambition.
"We'll make our move after they've fought enough."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
In the distance, the light curtain at the boundary fades further and further.
The countdown continues.
【00:05:00】
【00:04:59】
【00:04:58】
Five minutes remain until the first overlap period.
......
Eastern border, on the mountainside.
Lin Tian stood at the entrance of a cave, looking down.
From here you can see the entire wasteland of the Eastern Territory, and the fading light curtain in the distance.
Celia leaned on his shoulder and asked curiously, "Brother Tian, aren't we going down? It looks like there's going to be a fight over there."
Little White wrapped itself around Lin Tian's arm, its golden vertical pupils also looking towards the direction of the intersection.
Lin Tian shook his head.
"No rush."
He turned and looked into the depths of the cave.
Inside the cave, heavy breathing could be faintly heard, along with a powerful and unsettling aura.
That's the aura of the BOSS.
Bosses level 60 and above.
For ordinary players, this is a disaster.
For SS-rank players, this is a threat that requires them to fight with all their might to survive.
For SSS-rank players, this is a formidable enemy that can be fought against but cannot be defeated.
But for Lin Tian—
A slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Take care of this first."
He stepped into the cave.
Behind them, the countdown continues.
【00:01:00】
【00:00:59】
【00:00:58】
There is one minute left until the first overlap period.
Meanwhile, in the misty mountains of the Eastern Territory, a battle against the BOSS is about to begin.
......
[System Announcement: The first regional overlap has officially begun!]
The light barrier at the border has been removed; players from both the eastern and western borders can now freely enter the border area.
The fused monsters "Fire Demon Black Dragon" and "Two-Faced Colossus" have spawned in the central arena at the border. The killer grants all players in the area a 30% buff to all attributes for 10 minutes.
[Duration of overlap period: 30 minutes. Countdown begins!]
A loud system notification rang in the minds of every survivor in both the Eastern and Western realms.
At the eastern edge, the light curtain that had lasted for an entire day faded and dissipated at a visible speed, like melting ice and snow.
The moment the last ray of light disappeared, a gust of wind, mixed with the stench of blood, the heat of the battle, and the aura of countless players, swept in from the opposite side.
Zhang Tianya stood on a boulder on the edge of the eastern border, squinting as he looked ahead.
The border is a vast plain, flat and with a wide view.
In the center of the plain, a huge black arena is slowly rising from the ground; it is the spawn point for fusion monsters.
Meanwhile, the rest of the plains were now densely packed with people—players from both the east and west were frantically rushing towards the center.
"Holy crap..."
Standing behind Zhang Tianya, Zhang Heng gasped, "How many people are there?"
Li Weiwei walked to Zhang Tianya's side, her gaze serious.
"Almost all the players are here."
Zhang Tianya nodded without saying a word.
His gaze swept across the battlefield on the plain.
At this moment, the vanguard has already made contact.
Players from both the eastern and western regions immediately engaged in combat upon meeting, their skills flashing across the plains amidst screams, roars, and the clanging of metal.
Every second, a white light rises, that's a player being killed.
"Don't move yet," Zhang Tianya said. "Let them fight. We'll wait."
Li Weiwei glanced at him.
"What are you waiting for?"
Zhang Tianya's lips curled up slightly.
"Wait for an opportunity."
......
The western border.
Kenichi Sato stood on a low hill, looking down at the plain below.
