"What a miscalculation." Shifeng chuckled as he shook his head.
He had been worried about the various empires' Guilds, but he had forgotten about the various powers in Sea's End. To purchase so many bottles of Sea God's Blessings, they needed a considerable amount of Sea God's Temple Points. No matter how powerful the various empires' powers were, they couldn't purchase so many Sea God's Blessings within 30 hours.
After all, the chances of NPC Master Alchemists successfully synthesizing Runic Crystals were very low. They would only succeed once every dozen attempts. After factoring in the time required to synthesize the crystals, even if they invited five or six NPC Master Alchemists to synthesize Runic Crystals, they'd be lucky to purchase several hundred bottles of Sea God's Blessings.
It was simply impossible to purchase over 10,000 bottles.
Even if the various empires' powers worked together, they still wouldn't be able to do so. After all, there were only so many NPC Master Alchemists.
The only possibility of obtaining so many points in the Sea God's Temple was a local power.
Obtaining Sea God's Temple Points wasn't difficult for the major powers in Sea's End. They could do quests or exchange Runic Crystals for Sea God's Temple Points. Not only could Runic Crystals be obtained by synthesizing Runic Crystals, but they also had a high chance of dropping Runic Crystals from sea monsters. Not to mention, players could synthesize Runic Crystals with Runic Fragments.
"Guild Leader, are we still exchanging?" Fire Dance asked softly as she watched Shifeng on the screen.
The reason they had been so frantically exchanging for Sea God's Blessings was to prevent others from exchanging them in bulk. Now that over 30,000 bottles of Sea God's Blessings had been sold in the Sea God's Temple, it would be a significant blow to their sales.
"Of course. Why wouldn't we? At most, we'll earn less," Shifeng said, chuckling.
Although the competition had caused the Sea God's Blessings' prices to fall, they were still earning money at a frightening rate. Moreover, he was using the Philosopher's Stone to synthesize Runic Crystals.
Not to mention, he had already achieved his initial goal.
The Sea God's Blessings' prices had exceeded his expectations. After selling so many bottles of Sea God's Blessings, he now had over 60,000 Gold on hand. This was enough to deal with his Tier 2 Promotion Quest, purchase Diamond Wood, and construct Stone Forest Town. Not to mention, he still had nearly 140,000 bottles of Sea God's Blessing in his grocery store.
Even if he sold the Sea God's Blessings for 2 Gold per bottle, he would have enough Coins to construct his city..
"I understand." Fire Dance thought about it and agreed. She felt that she had been a little greedy.
Stormwind Town: Shifeng had just returned to the grocery store when he discovered that the originally crowded store was deserted. Only a few dozen people stood around the store, radiating frightening auras. It was as if anyone who dared approach the grocery store would be prepared to die.
Just as the Shifeng was about to walk over, a burly middle-aged man suddenly called out to the Shifeng, "Friend, are you going over to exchange for mageweath fragments?"
The Shifeng nodded and pretended to be the players exchanging items.
"I advise you not to go over. The House of Seas' members have already sealed off the grocery store. Moreover, they have announced that anyone who dares to enter the store will be going against the House of Seas. Making an enemy out of them for a few dozen Silver Coins is not worth it," the burly middle-aged man explained. "Previously, several relatively strong independent players tried to enter the grocery store. Unfortunately, as soon as they stepped out, the House of Seas' members used Tier 2 Magic Scrolls to kill them. Not only did they lose a piece of equipment, but the House of Seas' members are also keeping an eye on them. They don't dare to go out and level up. Meanwhile, the House of Seas' member who used the Magic Scroll is only a Level 30 player. Even if the guards kill him and lock him up for a while, he won't feel any pain."
"How overbearing!" Shifeng glanced at the 20-man team guarding the entrance. Indeed, there were five players around Level 30, and their equipment was very ordinary. As for the others, they were either Level 42 or Level 43, and they all wore Level 40 Fine-Gold Equipment. Some even had two or three pieces of Level 40 Dark-Gold Equipment.
The House of Seas wanted to use these expert players to intimidate elite players. As for the disobedient ordinary experts, the House of Seas would use Tier 2 Magic Scrolls to get rid of them.
As long as no one sold Runic Fragments, the House of Seas wouldn't be able to obtain Runic Crystals.
Although the House of Seas could still purchase Runic Crystals piecemeal, it would be much, much slower.
"The House of Seas has long since grown accustomed to being overbearing. Only a few powers in Sea's End can contend with them. If we provoke them, we won't be able to survive in Sea's End," the burly middle-aged man said, sighing. This was what made independent players helpless. "The House of Seas' members are frantically searching for that shop's owner. They say that if the shop's owner wishes to survive in Sea's End, he'll have to submit to the House of Seas' management. Otherwise, he'll have to bear the consequences. That shop's owner is really pitiful. He's just opening a Shop, yet the House of Seas is after him."
"Huh? Are you going to go there? Don't be foolish. Quite a few people have already tried. " The burly middle-aged man panicked when he saw Shifeng approaching the shop. "If they target you, you'll be finished."
"Target?" Shifeng chuckled. "They've been targeting me for a long time."
"They've been targeting you for a long time?" The burly middle-aged man suddenly thought of a possibility. His eyes widened in shock as he asked, "Could you be … They …"
"That's right. I am the pitiful person you speak of," Shifeng said, nodding.
"Has he lost his mind?" The burly middle-aged man was stunned.
The House of Seas had been frantically searching for the shop's owner, yet this shop's owner had taken the initiative to deliver himself to them.
When Shifeng arrived before the shop's entrance, several House of Seas members blocked Shifeng's path.
"Brat, don't you know that the House of Seas has taken over this place? Scram! "a Level 43 Shield Warrior berated Shifeng, glaring at him.
"What if I don't?" Shifeng asked, chuckling.
"Brat, are you tired of living? You dare challenge the House of Seas?! Nobody in this world can save you now! " The Shield Warrior bellowed. Turning to the several Level 30 members beside him, he shouted, "Get rid of this brat! Let's see who dares to come after us!"
At this time, a Level 30 Cursemancer took out a Tier 2 Magic Scroll and began to chant it. Suddenly, a black magic array appeared behind the Cursemancer. Twenty pitch-black blades then formed around the Cursemancer. These blades then shot towards Shifeng.
Although Tier 2 Magic Scrolls did not pose much of a threat to Great Lord ranked monsters, they were more than capable of instant-killing players who had yet to reach Tier 2. Unless the Cursemancer possessed an Invulnerability Skill, he would die without a doubt.
Boom … Boom … Boom …
A series of pitch-black blades descended, piercing the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust that covered a large area. The players in the trade area were alarmed.
"Die!"
The Level 43 Shield Warrior sneered as he glanced at the dust cloud. However, as soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Is that so?"
The Shield Warrior found this voice incomparably familiar. Immediately, he turned around.
