To him, this was an utter humiliation, not only failing to expand his domain but also losing two important resource-producing nodes.
In subsequent confrontations with the Player Clan, he wised up.
He knew the players would focus their main assault on the Domain Nodes in the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range, employing feigned attacks and various strategies.
Having fallen for it once, he wouldn't fall for it a second time.
He would never allow himself to lose another Domain Node.
But judging by the growth rate of the Player Clan members' combat power, losing the next node was inevitable.
Only by utilizing resources from other nodes could he maintain balance more effectively, even crush the Player Clan completely, making them dare not descend any further.
