“SSR players have reached Celestial Fortress, now’s our chance to take some points!”
“Bone Dragon Stronghold already belongs to the SSR Guild. If we take it, it’s not like we’re snatching it from Godslayer.”
“Exactly, we’re just doing the right thing, removing the US traitors.”
As soon as the main SSR forces teleported to Celestial Fortress, three other factions set their sights on Bone Dragon Stronghold. Among them was the recently rising Unmatched Guild.
Not long ago, they clashed with Dragon’s Kiss Guild at the Empire’s border, suffering mutual losses. However, the fact that they could contend with Dragon’s Kiss Guild proved their strength.
Bone Dragon Stronghold, apart from Celestial Fortress, was the most valuable piece of land on the battlefield. Many large guilds had long coveted it.
They knew their place—whether facing NPC armies with five giant dragons or the Godslayer coalition, taking Celestial Fortress was almost impossible. However, taking Bone Dragon Stronghold would still be a huge gain.
“Robert, we can’t take this point.”
An out-of-place voice interrupted. A player exuding a wild aura spoke.
The man was tall, with bronze skin, and his massive arms were covered in beast-like magic runes. He wasn’t wearing any armor but held a staff resembling a tree root.
“Oh? Why can’t Hunter take it?” Unmatched Robert smiled lightly.
As the leader of the Unmatched Guild, Robert held a level 35 star-shaped legendary silver bow called [Earth Demon · Soul Destroyer Bow]. Ranked 6th on the weapon list, this bow had a passive effect that prevented the enemy from resurrecting after being killed.
The three-piece set’s awakened skills were unknown, but he had used this equipment to kill hundreds of Dragon’s Kiss Guild’s main team, causing considerable trouble for Usher.
“Triple Crown winner Orgod may be tied up, but with his current popularity, anyone who tries to take this point will cause us significant trouble,” Hunter shook his head.
Unmatched 058: “Hunter, are you joking? Others who get an S-tier hidden job always aim high, and you’re becoming more cautious?”
Unmatched 03: “Don’t even talk about trouble—so what if everyone in the game starts criticizing us? A bunch of useless whiners, are you afraid of them?”
“No need to say more. On the battlefield, the victor is king. I understand your concerns,” Unmatched Robert said confidently. Having previously fought Dragon’s Kiss Guild at the Empire’s border boosted his confidence.
Bone Dragon Stronghold was worth at least a million gold in current market value—equivalent to a full 10 billion dollars. With such massive profit at stake, the Unmatched Guild had the strength to compete and was determined to go for it!
Hunter furrowed his brow, no longer voicing his objections. He could clearly feel the shift in the team’s atmosphere.
Initially, they were just a group of strong solo players, but once team leader Unmatched Robert obtained the S-tier job [Soul Reaper Archer], everything changed.
Robert had received investment from foreign tycoons and founded the Unmatched Guild, with ambitions rapidly growing.
They were very different from SSR, a guild full of professional players who relied on fan support. The Unmatched Guild didn’t care about nationality or ethnic pride; profits were the only true way to go!
Unmatched Robert looked up at the broken Bone Dragon Stronghold, raised his longbow, and coldly commanded, “Take the point! Kill!”
“Quick! Don’t let Unmatched Guild take it first! SSR and Godslayer are absent—this is our chance!”
“First, take out SSR, then eliminate Unmatched!”
The other two factions, seeing the opportunity, rushed in from gaps opened by the Earth Dragon’s attacks.
“SSR’s territory—who dares to mess with it?” an SSR player roared, blocking the gap with his team.
This axe-and-shield warrior, relying on exceptional skills, stomped on enemy heads and hacked through with a storm of strikes, killing four Unmatched knights in an instant.
“Star Soul Strike!”
Unmatched Robert’s eyes flashed coldly as he unleashed a terrifying spiritual arrow. Enemies in the front lines were sent flying.
Critical hit -5000!
Buffs removed!
Healing disabled for 3 seconds.
Group knockback!
“Unmatched Robert… that bastard!” the axe-and-shield warrior gasped.

[Soul Reaper Archer] was slower in terms of firing speed compared to other S-tier archers but had an extremely powerful buff stacking effect, particularly strong against heavily armored frontlines.
“Hunter, no more hesitation, let’s take the point,” Unmatched Robert urged.
“Fine.”
Hunter sighed and said, “Druid B-tier Beast Form—Ashen Demon Bear!”
His arms glowed with a hazy green light. With a roar, his forehead bulged, and fangs and gray fur sprouted from his mouth.
“What the hell is that? A transformation class? Damn!”
“One million health? Are you kidding me! Is this a player or a boss?”
The SSR guards stared in shock as a nine-meter-tall, gray mist-filled magic bear appeared. The bear’s eyes were filled with rage, and its magic claws struck down, smashing several SSR knights into the ground.
Critical hit -7000!
Smash damage -8000!
Smash damage…
Paladins with 20,000–30,000 health were crushed into pulp, creating a bloody and brutal scene.
More than ten SSR ranged players focused their fire on the magic bear, shooting beams of light.
Roar!
“Terror Tremor!”
The magic bear suddenly turned and used its transformation skill, creating a shockwave that shattered all incoming attacks.
“S-tier hidden job… Earth Druid!”
The players in the area gasped in surprise.
According to the Infinite Dimensions official website, if the Earth Druid obtained their exclusive gear, they could briefly transform into a dragon or chimera. In terms of combat potential among S-tier hidden jobs, they ranked in the top ten.
The Earth Druid could transform into various forms, and though the transformation time was limited, it significantly boosted their stats. The only downside was that they could only equip exclusive Druid gear to enhance the form’s power and duration.
The Earth Druid rampaged through the crowd, while Unmatched Robert held the ranged pressure. Together, they wreaked havoc on the SSR defenders.
However, as the other two factions joined in, the battle quickly devolved into a chaotic multi-faction brawl.
“Unmatched, stop!” The leading axe-and-shield warrior shouted.
Unmatched Robert: “Why stop? Hunter and I haven’t even used our full strength. No need to negotiate.”
SSR Nafi: “Heh, then please use your full strength. Otherwise, none of us will be able to take this point.”
A chilling shadow fell over everyone’s faces, and they instinctively looked up.
“Orgod!”
“Orson!!”
“Shit, wasn’t he too busy to come to Bone Dragon Stronghold? Was the intel wrong?”
A man and a dragon appeared, seeming to hold up the entire sky. In an instant, they captured everyone’s attention.
“So it’s a Druid. Interesting,” Orson said nonchalantly, looking down at the chaos below.
Unmatched Guild had some fame in the past, but Unmatched Robert wasn’t a competent leader. Due to unequal profit distribution, the guild had dissolved before the Hardcore Mode arrived.
As for the Druid player, his strength was on the verge of reaching Heavenly-tier, but the key exclusive equipment had been taken by Usher. He refused to become a lackey of Dragon’s Kiss Guild.
In the end, during the first Heaven Demon invasion, he was surrounded and killed along with several close friends.
Otherwise, with the Earth Druid’s potential, reaching Heavenly-tier wouldn’t have been difficult.
SSR Nafi: “Everyone, I mean every guild that wants Bone Dragon Stronghold! Show your full hand and kill this man!”
SSR Nafi: “Our guild master said that whoever kills the traitor Orgod, we’ll gladly hand over Bone Dragon Stronghold!”
“Really throwing in the big bucks.”
The Crimson Lizard King hovered above Bone Dragon Stronghold, and Orson looked down at the chaotic battle below, saying loudly, “Your enemy is not me.”
“You… what do you mean?” SSR Nafi asked, barely keeping his composure as he met Orson’s gaze. The oppressive force made him feel as if he couldn’t stand up straight.
“The Druid? If you want information about the exclusive gear, you can join Godslayer,” Orson said with a smile, watching Hunter return to his usual state.
“Digging our people? Is this the Triple Crown winner’s style?” Unmatched Robert sneered.
“Digging people right under our Unmatched Guild’s nose, Orgod, you really have some nerve!”
The Unmatched Guild members instantly flared up, and Robert’s expression changed. “Hunter, don’t listen to his nonsense. The Earth Druid’s exclusive equipment lead has been lost.”
Hunter looked up at the man, his expression fluctuating as he muttered, “So this is Infinite Dimensions’ number one?”
“Believe it or not, it’s up to you. By the way, the person next to you is unreliable,” Orson chuckled.
Unmatched Robert: “You troublemaker! Die!”
With that, he drew his legendary bow and locked onto Orson in mid-air.
Orson smiled mockingly, not even bothering to look back. “Your enemy is not me.”
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a cold light appeared behind Unmatched Robert. Blank drew his knife and with several swift strikes, killed Unmatched Robert.
“Infinite Charge Legion, kill!”
Meanwhile, the war cry of Demon Emperor echoed from afar.
