By now, every other guild base within a radius of several kilometers had fully activated their defensive barriers, frantically assailing Tide Guild's barrier, attempting to breach it and launch an assault on the buildings within.
With his form hidden, John stood at the outskirts of the base, his sharp gaze methodically assessing the situation on the battlefield.
