"Another 20,000 Gold?" After giving the matter some thought, Yuan Tiexin said, "Alright, but once we receive the funds, we must begin construction on the Magic Tower immediately."
Although 20,000 Gold was slightly more expensive than the high-potential Lands in five major cities, the high-potential Lands in major cities had more room for appreciation.
"That won't be a problem. Once we receive the 20 Lands and 20,000 Gold, we can begin construction on the Magic Tower." Shifeng had not expected Yuan Tiexin to agree so quickly.
Obtaining 20 Lands wasn't difficult for Super Guilds, but 20,000 Gold wasn't.
The fact that Yuan Tiexin had agreed so quickly proved that 20,000 Gold wasn't much to the Secret Pavilion.
Shifeng regretted his decision. If he had known, he would've asked for 30,000 Gold.
After all, Super Guilds would invest more than 20,000 Gold to construct defensive structures in important towns. After all, each Defense Turret cost 7,000 Gold, which was the same price as a Master Lifestyle Magic Tower. Four Defense Turrets would cost 28,000 Gold. Moreover, the defensive capabilities of the Defense Turrets couldn't even compare to a single Magic Tower.
Following which, Shifeng and Yuan Tiexin signed a contract.
The Secret Pavilion would complete the agreement within two days. When the time came, the Ling YI Society would have to construct the Magic Tower in Ice Crystal Town.
When Shifeng saw Ice Crystal Town's name, he was similarly surprised.
He had never imagined that the Secret Pavilion would actually occupy Ice Crystal Town.
Ice Crystal Town was a border town located in the Fire Wing Empire's southwest region. It had originally belonged to a dark force. Most of the town's NPCs were Tier 2, with several Tier 3 NPCs among them. Even the Fire Wing Empire had to think twice before attacking this town. However, it had ultimately given up because of this town. One could just imagine how difficult it would be for players to raid this town.
Although Ice Crystal Town appeared ordinary, it was the town closest to the neutral map, the Setting Sun Mountain Range.
As a neutral map, the Setting Sun Mountain Range was not under the jurisdiction of any kingdom or empire. It was only half the size of a kingdom. As the map had never been developed by any kingdom or empire, it had far more resources than any kingdom or empire.
Moreover, there were many races and tribes in the Setting Sun Mountain Range. There weren't many restrictions, and many dark forces often conducted trade activities there. Some items that couldn't be obtained in a kingdom or empire could also be obtained there.
However, players could not teleport over. They could only run over.
If Zero Wing could obtain Ice Crystal Town, it would become even more popular than Stone Forest Town. It would be particularly convenient for Guilds to explore the Setting Sun Mountain Range.
"As expected of the Secret Pavilion. They actually managed to acquire Ice Crystal Town so early." The Shifeng was filled with envy.
The Fire Wing Empire had far more players than the Starmoon Kingdom. Moreover, Ice Crystal Town was different from Stone Forest Town. The Stoneclaw Mountains was the only attractive location for players. However, the Stoneclaw Mountains had a level restriction. Once mainstream players reached Level 50, Stone Forest Town would lose its appeal.
Unlike Ice Crystal Town, the Setting Sun Mountain Range's Level bars ranged from Level 50 to Level 120. Ice Crystal Town would become a considerably popular town in the Fire Wing Empire for quite some time. Including the Magic Tower's effects, Ice Crystal Town was at least three to five times better than Stone Forest Town.
However, the Shifeng only thought about it.
The Ling YI Society was only a newly established Guild. How could it possibly compare to the Secret Pavilion's business?
Moreover, he had made a fortune through this transaction. Only, he could not see it yet. Once the Shipyard was officially operational, its true value would be revealed.
This was especially true now that the twenty Lifestyle players had yet to explore the nearby high-level maps. Nobody had paid any attention to the issue of rare wood required to construct ships. This was a good opportunity to purchase as much wood as he could. By the time he nurtured enough Lifestyle players, he would have accumulated enough wood.
Following which, the Shifeng sent off Yuan Tiexin and the others.
…
Currently, an endless stream of independent players teleported into White River City's Teleportation Hall. Among these players, many were inquiring about Ling Yi's Residence, hoping to join the Ling YI Society.
"Big Sis Rain, is this really White River City?" Blue Phoenix, who wore a Black Cloak, could not help her rueful sigh as she looked around.
Inside the Teleportation Hall, elite players could be seen everywhere. There were also many members of large Guilds. Among them, there was no lack of Level 39 and Level 40 experts. There were also many players hawking their wares on the street, and the items they sold were equally astonishing.
"Level 35 Secret-Silver Plate Armor on sale! Message me privately if you want it! "
"Level 40 Mysterious-Iron Weapons for sale! Only Magic Crystals!"
…
Looking at the players selling weapons and equipment on both sides of the street, Blue Phoenix wondered if she had come to the wrong place.
Both Level 35 Secret-Silver Equipment and Level 40 Mysterious-Iron Weapons were considered high-quality weapons and equipment at this stage of the game. Even in imperial capitals, very few people were willing to sell them. Yet, so many people were selling them in White River City. It was simply unbelievable.
Most surprising of all were the adventurer teams. Many of these adventurer teams had formed teams to explore the Twin Towers Kingdom.
The minimum requirement to join these teams was Level 39, and they had to be fully geared in Level 35 Secret-Silver Equipment. They had also cleared the Trial Tower's fourth floor. Even in large Guilds, such players would be considered experts.
Feng Qianyu was also slightly surprised by this situation.
Even when she had visited Star-Moon City, she had not seen such a bustling scene.
This was the first time she had heard of a major city in a kingdom surpassing a capital city.
After leaving the Teleportation Hall, she was greeted by the sight of many advanced carriages on the street. Moreover, it was not easy to find a carriage as there were simply too many players vying to get a ride.
"Why is Yuan Tiexin here?"
Just as Feng Qianyu was about to board an advanced carriage to Candlelight, she suddenly noticed two players riding Mounts stopping before the Teleportation Hall's entrance. The newcomers were a man and a woman. Both wore Black Cloaks. Although players could not see their IDs and levels, they did not hide their appearances. Hence, it was not difficult for familiar players to recognize them. This was especially true for Feng Qianyu.
Feng Qianyu had a strange expression on her face as she watched Yuan Tiexin and Shi Feng rush into the Teleportation Hall.
Yuan Tiexin was one of the Secret Pavilion's upper echelons. Moreover, he was the Pavilion's Guild Leader's trusted aide. Normally, Yuan Tiexin would not have to deal with trivial matters personally.
Hence, the only possibility she could think of was the Ling YI Society.
"Just how many secrets is this Ling YI Society hiding?" Feng Qianyu could not help but reveal a bitter smile.
Following which, Feng Qianyu did not dwell on the matter as he boarded a carriage and hurried towards Candlelight.
…
Shortly after Yuan Tiexin left, the Shifeng summoned A Melancholy Smile.
