Chapter 2838 – Astonishing News

When Fire Dance announced Zero Wing’s plan to sell one million entry slots for Zero Wing City, a commotion broke out throughout the eastern continent . Almost every power operating on the eastern continent promptly held a meeting among their executives to discuss the entry slots .

…

Orc Empire, Crimson Flame Fortress:

“How arrogant of Zero Wing . Aren’t they afraid of suffering a backlash for pulling such a stunt?” Snow Scar, who was now a Level 130, Tier 4 Berserker, sneered as he looked at the information displayed on the conference table . “They probably aren’t aware that Saint’s Hand has already established a city in the Black Hills, together with over a dozen superpowers . ”

The Black Hills!

This was a Level 130 neutral map connected to the Valley of Death, a forbidden land . Meanwhile, the Valley of Death was also the map that current players had the best chances of exploring successfully . Although the forbidden land was dangerous, according to the reports of the Tier 4 experts who had explored it already, the number of Tier 4 Legacy Lands appearing inside far exceeded that of other places . There were also plenty of ancient ruins hidden in the map, which were of significant help with getting promoted to Tier 4 . In fact, even Tier 4 players could reap a lot of benefits from these ancient ruins .

In response to Snow Scar’s words, Jing Yang, who was now a Level 131, Tier 4 Great Wizard, turned to the woman exuding a heroic and charming aura, seated at the table’s seat of honor . In a respectful tone, he said, “Vice Guild Leader, Saint’s Hand has sent us an invitation as well . They say they will offer us 10% of their new city’s shares once it is constructed . However, we will need to garrison the city with one Tier 4 player and 20,000 Tier 3 players in return . ”

“How calculative of Saint’s Hand . They must be aiming to have us help them deal with Zero Wing in the Orc Empire,” a Level 128, Tier 4 female Assassin said, smirking . “However, if they want to use us as pawns, don’t you think that the price they’re offering is too low?”

Snow Scar also nodded in agreement with the female Assassin .

The Blackwater Guild was no longer the same as it was before . Under Xuanwu Chisa’s lead, the Guild had grown to a point where it could rival even Super Guilds . Moreover, unknown to the public, the Guild even had six Tier 4 experts already .

“Jing Yang, tell Saint’s Hand that they need to show more sincerity if they want to partner with us . We want at least 30% of the city’s shares,” Xuanwu Chisa said, opening her eyes . “Also, notify Zero Wing of Saint’s Hand’s actions . Tell them that Blackwater is willing to partner with Zero Wing to go up against Saint’s Hand’s alliance . However, in return, they must allow all of Blackwater’s elite members into Zero Wing City . ”

“Vice Guild Leader, you know how Zero Wing operates . There’s no way they will agree to such a condition,” Jing Yang argued, feeling a headache incoming .

He had negotiated with Zero Wing for partnership many times in the past, yet he had faced rejection every time . Now that Zero Wing had the potential to rival the Five Great Super Guilds, it had even less need to heed Blackwater’s demands .

“It doesn’t matter if they don’t accept it now,” Xuanwu Chisa said nonchalantly . “Once Saint’s Hand opens their city and that side arrives, Zero Wing will have no choice but to agree to our demands . ”

“I understand . ” Jing Yang nodded .

The current Zero Wing indeed had the qualifications to be arrogant . However, once Saint’s Hand opened its city in the Black Hills, the situation would quickly reverse . After all, mainstream players were currently only at Level 120 . Although the Arctic Canyon was also an excellent location, it simply wasn’t a place mainstream players could visit . At most, they could only make use of Zero Wing City’s incredible Mana environment .

Not to mention, Saint’s Hand’s alliance consisted of more than a dozen superpowers . With the manpower and resources available to them, the alliance would soon become an existence that even the Five Great Super Guilds had to be wary of .

At that time, Zero Wing’s advantage in Tier 4 players would also disappear .

However, Saint’s Hand’s alliance still wasn’t the biggest problem Zero Wing would have to face but the world-shattering war looming over the main continent . A Guild like Zero Wing, which had established a base in a Level 140 neutral map, would definitely head the list of cannon fodder for this war .

Currently, though, very few people in God’s Domain actually knew of this upcoming war . The only reason Blackwater knew about it was Xuanwu Chisa’s special identity .

Just when Blackwater was about to notify Zero Wing of Saint’s Hand’s actions, Saint’s Hand actually announced its astonishing plan to the entire eastern continent .

Moreover, Saint’s Hand even declared that it would open its city to everyone and charge a cheap entrance fee of only one Magic Crystal or 50 Silver Coins .

As soon as this news came out, many of the first-rate powers considering partnering with Zero Wing promptly changed their minds .

After all, although Zero Wing City possessed an excellent environment, the entrance fee it charged was simply beyond the various first-rate powers’ means . Not to mention, the city’s entry slots would be auctioned . In other words, the entry slots wouldn’t cost just ten Magic Crystals . By the end of the auction, each slot might actually go for 15 or even 20 Magic Crystals .

Moreover, this was only the price to enter the city . Once inside the city, they were bound to incur all sorts of other expenditures as well . Rather than spending all those Magic Crystals, it would be much better to head to Saint’s Hand’s city and explore the Valley of Death for ancient ruins and Tier 4 Legacy Lands . Not only could they save up on a lot of Magic Crystals by doing so, but their potential income was also higher .

…

Sky Spring City, Zero Wing’s Residence:

“Guild Leader, 90% of the first-rate powers seeking to partner with us and 80% of the adventurer teams seeking to join us changed their minds after Saint’s Hand’s announcement,” Fire Dance said, a hint of disbelief in her eyes as she read the report she just received . “There won’t be any competition for the entry slots . In fact, the one million slots we’re offering exceed the remaining Guilds’ demand . ”

“It doesn’t matter . Let Saint’s Hand do whatever it wants . Our plan will remain the same . We will still sell one million entry slots during the auction,” Shi Feng said, chuckling as he looked at the statistical report . “When the time comes, just sell as many slots as possible . To begin with, we’re not doing this to earn Magic Crystals . We’re just trying to keep Zero Wing City operational . ”

“You might be right, but if we have enough Magic Crystals, we could construct another Mobile Fortress, right?” Fire Dance said regretfully .

The Magic Crystals Zero Wing earned from its members visiting Zero Wing City were already more than enough to keep the city functioning normally . The only problems remaining were the recruitment and maintenance of the city’s NPC soldiers .

However, resolving these issues wasn’t a big deal for the present Zero Wing . This was because many Guild members were willing to develop themselves in Zero Wing City . There were also more than 20,000 Tier 3 experts from Heaven’s Blade and Asura . In total, Zero Wing City already had an astonishing 50,000 Tier 3 players operating in it .

At this point, all they needed to do was wait until the Guild accumulated enough Tier 3 members to ensure Zero Wing City’s security . Once the city’s security was no longer a concern, they could open up the city to NPCs and begin recruiting NPC soldiers in large numbers .

However, the Mobile Fortress’s power had made a deep impression on Fire Dance . She believed it would be wonderful if Zero Wing could gain another Mobile Fortress .

“Let’s not talk about getting another Mobile Fortress,” Shi Feng said, chuckling . “What we can do is further increase the number of Tier 4 players we have to improve the Guild’s strength . ”

“Further increase?” Fire Dance parroted, confused by Shi Feng’s words . “Is that even doable?”

Producing Tier 4 players was easier said than done . Finding Tier 4 Legacy Lands was one thing; mastering a Tier 4 Skill or Spell within the allotted time was another thing altogether . The help Zero Wing City’s environment provided for this aspect could already be regarded as the best available in God’s Domain . She found it hard to imagine other ways to help Zero Wing produce even more Tier 4 players .

“Of course . ” Smiling, Shi Feng said, “Contact Summer and the others and have them gather in Zero Wing City’s City Lord’s Mansion . ”

If it were before he had visited the ancient God’s Domain, he would indeed have no way of accomplishing such a feat . However, after his trip to the ancient era, he did .

And that was by using the Ancient Beast Sculpture!
