"A mere Ling YI Society dares to challenge all of our Dark Guilds? They must be tired of living!"
"Since they dare to declare war on our Dark Guilds, it seems that the other Guilds will look down on us if we don't annihilate the Ling YI Society."
"Originally, I had intended to deal with the Blackwater Consortium. Since the Ling YI Society wants to die, they can't blame us for being impolite!"
"Unless the Ling YI Society is completely removed from the Starmoon Kingdom, we Dark Guilds will not rest until we are annihilated!"
Shortly after the Ling YI Society announced its crusade against the Dark Guilds, the various Dark Guilds quickly responded.
Originally, not many Dark Guilds had gathered in White River City. However, after Ling Yi's announcement, the number of players wearing Black Cloaks increased. Moreover, the number of Ling Yi members ambushed outside White River City also increased.
"Guild Leader, the members of the various Dark Guilds have already gathered here. Right now, the Guild's parties don't dare to casually head out. Only by moving in large groups will we be safer. These Dark Guilds have even brazenly waited outside our Guild Residence, waiting for an opportunity to ambush our members when they leave," Aqua Rose said, her head aching.
She simply could not understand why Shifeng would do such a thing.
If they were only dealing with one Dark Guild, it would be fine. However, there were over a dozen Dark Guilds gathered in White River City. These Dark Guilds were practically treating White River City as their base of operations. Yet, there was nothing they could do about it.
As long as these Red Names wore Black Cloaks and used disguise tools, they could easily fool the NPC guards. Once they reached the fields, they would vanish without a trace. Even if they chased after these Red Names, they would discover that these Red Names had set up an ambush.
Although many of their core members had killed a few Dark Guild players, this was nothing to the Dark Guilds. If the battle dragged on, it would be very easy for them to be overwhelmed by so many Dark Guilds. Not to mention, Blackwater and Heaven's Burial were also eyeing them.
"They've all gathered in White River City?" Shifeng nodded, smiling. "This is a good thing. This way, we can save time searching for them."
Shiuse Qiangwei was puzzled. It was obvious that the number of enemies was increasing. Why was this a good thing?
However, Shifeng didn't bother to explain. He simply led Shiuse Qiangwei and Fire Dance to the Adventurer's Association.
In the end, a Dark Guild was still a Dark Guild. They were like street rats that could only hide in dark corners. Daring to be so arrogant in NP City, they had to pay the price in blood.
"Sir, may I know how I can help you?" The blonde, blue-eyed beauty at the front desk asked Shi Feng as he walked over.
"Hello, I wish to purchase a Blood Aura Crystal. At the same time, I wish to activate White River City's High Alert Mode," Shifeng said.
Shiuse Qiangwei and Fire Dance were confused.
They had never heard of the Blood Qi Crystal or the so-called High Alert Mode.
"Sir, if you wish to purchase a Blood Aura Crystal, you need to be a 2-star adventurer. Meanwhile, if you wish to activate the city's High Alert Mode, you need to be a 3-star adventurer." May I know if this identity is enough? "Shifeng smiled as he changed his title to Spirit Slayer.
Spirit Slayer was an Advanced Title. It allowed one to enjoy 4-star treatment in the Adventurer's Association. Its status was equivalent to a Branch Guild Leader's.
"So, it is Lord Spirit Slayer. This is a Blood Aura Crystal. As you enjoy 4-star treatment, we can give you a 30% discount. You will only need to pay 700 Gold. As for the City's High Alert Mode, you will need to pay an additional application fee of 140 Gold." After the beauty recognized Shifeng's title, her gaze immediately turned respectful.
"No problem," Shifeng said as he took out 2,000 Gold.
Whether it was the Blood Aura Crystal or the City's High Alert Mode, both were the nemesis of Dark Players. This was also why the various Dark Guilds in the past had been able to detect Blood Aura within a certain range after using the Blood Aura Crystal. As long as players killed other players or Lawful NPCs, Blood Aura would contaminate their bodies. It was similar to a player's Red Name.
In other words, as long as players used the Blood Aura Crystal, they could easily detect Red Names within a certain range. Moreover, players with a Tracking Skill could use Blood Aura to track Red Names. It was a commonly used tool when crusading against Dark Guilds. Only, current players were unaware of this fact.
However, the Blood Aura Crystal was very expensive. Moreover, only 2-star adventurers could purchase it. 1-star adventurers could only purchase Blood Aura Detection Stones from the Association. Although the Blood Aura Detection Stone had the same effect as the Blood Aura Crystal, it could only be used by an individual. In addition, the detection effect of the Blood Aura Crystal was far inferior.
As for the City's High Alert Mode, to put it simply, players within the city would no longer be able to wear Black Cloaks to hide their identities. Moreover, NPCs patrolling the city would all be equipped with Advanced Detection Stones, which could detect the aura of Dark Creatures and the Blood Aura of Red Names. At the same time, players within the city would no longer be able to use any teleportation items. There were only two ways to leave the city. One was through the Teleportation Hall, and the other was through the city's gates. However, both places were guarded by high-tiered NPCs.
"Lord Spirit Slayer, your application has been approved. The duration will be three natural days. Your next application will be delayed. … As soon as the female NPC finished speaking, White River City's system announcement rang out.
White River City System Announcement: The city will temporarily enter High Alert Mode. All teleportation items will no longer be able to be used within the city.
The system announcement repeated three times, leaving every player in White River City at a loss.
"What's High Alert Mode?"
"Did someone trigger some kind of special quest?"
Just as White River City's players were wondering, the players wearing Black Cloaks on the city's streets revealed their true identities.
"What's going on?"
"Why can't my Black Cloak hide my appearance?"
The Dark Guild players stationed outside Ling Yi's Residence suddenly panicked.
Without the Black Cloak's concealment effect, a high-tiered NPC could easily see through their disguises.
If a Red Name were to be caught in an NPC city, they would definitely die!
"The guards are coming!"
"It's fine. They're just patrolling guards. They aren't high-tiered NPCs. We just need to be careful on the streets. Once the High Alert Mode ends, we'll be able to leave safely."
"That's right. Only Advanced Identification Skills can see through our disguises. Ordinary Identification Skills are useless."
Just as the Dark Guild players on the streets relaxed, the patrolling guards suddenly charged at them from over 200 yards away. Without hesitation, the guards began to kill these Dark Guild players.
For a time, battles broke out all over White River City, stupefying the ordinary players on the streets.
In just a few short minutes, every Dark Guild player in White River City was dead. Not a single one survived. However, this was not the worst. As everyone knew, the punishment for attacking players in White River City was already very severe. If a Dark Guild player, who had killed many players before, was caught by an NPC in the city, they could consider changing accounts …
