The Fire Dragon Egg hatched at a crucial moment and was stored into her space after being digitized by the artifact, which allowed Ye Xue'er to luckily obtain the first pet in the game.

The Berserker and others, whose dragon egg was snatched away, flew into a rage and immediately started a flame war on the official website forum.

The "Demolition Office" guild, to which the Berserker belonged, also announced a challenge to the Association of the Guardian Angels.

As the number of players increased, guilds sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. The Demolition Office Guild was originally a relatively strong guild in other games. After the rise of Battle Online, they collectively switched games to settle in. Although it was established not long ago, its strength was equally terrifying and not at all weaker than the Association of the Guardian Angels.

At this time, Ye Xue'er was feeling very happy. Although the first dungeon challenge ended so quickly, everything became worthwhile after obtaining the Fire Dragon Egg.

Her heart was even more determined that killing people and plundering goods was the true essence of the game's fun. She was not at all intimidated by the Demolition Office's challenge and immediately accepted it on the forum, preparing for a large-scale guild war in the wild after resurrection with real swords and guns.

However, what other players were paying attention to was not the tearing between the two guilds, but the fact that there were actually pets in the Hell Path dungeon.

This made many players jealous, and many casual players also began to form teams to enter the Hell Path, hoping to hatch a pet.

However, even the first level of Hell Path was full of dangers for players. The weakest monsters like Fire Demons had to be fought by player teams to be killed with difficulty. Although there were relics and treasures, they were not easy to find, and both strength and luck were indispensable.

Just like Ye Xue'er's team, even if they found the stone coffin, they couldn't open it, which was useless.

However, as more and more players poured into the Hell Path, and those players who found materials or treasures posted pictures on the forum to show off, the players' enthusiasm for the Hell Path became even greater. It can be said that they were tortured by this high-difficulty dungeon and felt both pain and happiness.

After the resurrection cooldown ended, Ye Xue'er logged into the game again with anticipation.

She opened the attribute panel and turned her attention to the newly added pet column.

[Fire Devouring Dragon Level 0 (Larva)]: Pet Details: Fire-attribute ferocious beast, inhabiting high-temperature areas all year round, possessing fire immunity Pet Attributes: Strength 4, Agility 4, Endurance 4, Spirit 6 Pet Potential: High (divided into Low, Medium, High, Spirit Beast, Yin soul beast, Divine Beast, World-Suppressing Spirit from low to high) Pet Skills: None (can be learned through growth) Growth Requirements: Devouring fire-attribute spirit stones can increase pet experience (Note: After the pet dies, you can purchase a Pet Resurrection Pill in the store to revive it)

Bei Li had already made arrangements for the pet settings. After all, the pet was completely digitized, and it could be said that some spirituality would be lost.

For example, the Fire Devouring Dragon, which should have been a Spirit Beast-level ferocious beast, could only reach the High level after being digitized, which was unavoidable.

Moreover, the digitized pet must be in the newly hatched larval state, and it can only be included in the artifact at the moment of contact with the outside world. If it is an adult, even with the help of the artifact, it is impossible to digitize it.

As for the pet resurrection aspect, Lu Wu would naturally not let players use the artifact's ability for free. It would definitely be charged, and it would not be cheap. Each resurrection would require a payment of 30 Soul Coins.

After reading the pet attribute panel, Ye Xue'er clicked on Summon Pet, and a black vortex appeared in front of her. The chubby little Fire Dragon flapped its wings and flew out excitedly.

"Awoo~ Awoo~" The little Fire Dragon flew around Ye Xue'er twice, then burrowed into her arms and rubbed against her.

Seeing this, Ye Xue'er grabbed the little Fire Dragon's neck and lifted it in front of her for a closer look.

"It seems a little weak... It takes time to cultivate, so troublesome!" Ye Xue'er seemed a little disappointed.

The little Fire Dragon seemed to understand Ye Xue'er's words and immediately puffed up its cheeks and spat out with force: "Cough~ Cough~"

Looking at a wisp of small flame, Ye Xue'er was expressionless.

"It's not bad for lighting cigarettes!" Ye Chen said with a smile from the side.

Ye Xue'er put the little Fire Dragon back into the pet space, then glared at Ye Chen fiercely:

"Prepare to gather people. I think the people from the Demolition Office are ready. Take them down!"

"Okay!" Ye Chen put the giant sword on his shoulder, grinned, and walked out.

At this time, Lu Wu and Bei Li were discussing the recent conflicts between guilds.

Due to the opening of the Hell Path, the situation of players snatching materials, relic treasures, etc., the conflicts between each other can be said to be constantly escalating.

The mutual confrontation between the Guardian Angel and the Demolition Office was only one of them. Various guilds had more or less conflicts and frictions, so Lu Wu planned to hold the first hegemony event in the game.

In front of Lu Wu, a blueprint was laid out, scrawled with the five characters for "Guild Hegemony Competition."

Lu Wu's idea was simple: to build a massive battlefield and a hundred cities within the Artifact Space. Any guild with a membership of 500 or more could register to participate in this "Guild Hegemony Competition."

The theme of this event would be flag capture.

At the center of each city would be a flag. Any guild that occupied a city could convert this blank flag into their own guild's flag.

Of course, capturing the flag was just a process. Even if your guild captured a city and changed the flag, players from other guilds could still recapture it.

This was a large-scale hegemony competition that focused on siege warfare in the early stages and city defense in the later stages. It would last for half a day, and after the time was up, the hundred guilds that held their cities would be ranked as the "Strongest Top 100 Guilds." Lu Wu also prepared guild rewards for them.

Of course, this was a huge project. Even though he could easily condense Netherworld energy to create cities in the Artifact Space, the amount of work was too great, and construction would still take Lu Wu a lot of time.

So this event was still in the preparation stage and would not be opened soon.

There were already more than 300 guilds in the game with a full 500 members. Lu Wu planned to wait until the number of such guilds reached 500, or even over 1000, before starting this hegemony competition.

At that time, it would definitely be an epic battle of many heroes vying for supremacy, full of excitement.
