Inside Stone Forest Town, the Evil Beasts and Evil Demons scattered. The originally intense battle had now become a good opportunity to grind for EXP.
Originally, Chieftain rank and above monsters were relatively rare in the various maps. Finding one was not easy. Battles between players were often unavoidable.
Meanwhile, the Evil Beasts and Evil Demons generally gave far more EXP than monsters of the same level.
Although Ling Yi's members had lost over one-third of their members in this battle, everyone's levels had increased significantly. The weakest among them had leveled up by one level, while the strongest had leveled up by two.
After this battle, the Ling YI Society gained a large group of Level 40-plus elite players. The quality of their elite members instantly surpassed that of the other large Guilds by a large margin.
"This is too frightening. Even with so many monsters, Stone Forest Town still hasn't fallen. It'll be difficult for Stone Forest Town to not rise in the future."
"With this, the Ling YI Society's position in the Starmoon Kingdom will be as stable as a mountain. The Star Alliance and Heaven's Burial will have no hope of competing for first place. If I had known this would happen, I would've joined the Ling YI Society sooner. I might've even become a core member of the Ling YI Society by now."
"Tch. Do you think it's that easy to become a core member of the Ling YI Society? I've heard that the first requirement to become a core member of the Ling Yi Society is to reach the Trial Tower's sixth floor. That's the sixth floor we're talking about. Although everyone's combat standards have improved significantly, even a first-rate Guild's expert can reach the sixth floor. You're only on the fifth floor. How could you possibly stand a chance? "
"If our adventurer team can hold its ground against such a monster army, developing in Stone Forest Town will be a good choice for us. Tomorrow, our adventurer team will head to Stone Forest Town to purchase private houses."
"Your adventurer team wants to buy private houses? Don't make me laugh. Don't you know that my brother is an upper echelon of a small Guild? Some small Guilds have already decided to secretly purchase private houses in Stone Forest Town. Do you think your 100-man adventurer team can compete with a small Guild with several thousand members? "
…
Many players discussed Stone Forest Town's victory on the official forums. The foundations that the Ling YI Society had displayed had stupefied everyone. After this battle, no one in the entire Starmoon Kingdom doubted that any Guild could challenge Ling Yi's position.
As a result, some of the independent players who had been watching from the sidelines decided to join the Ling YI Society.
In the past, the Ling YI Society's recruitment standards had been extremely high. To some independent experts, joining the Ling YI Society wasn't worth it. After all, if they joined other first-rate Guilds, needless to say, they would receive far better treatment than the Ling YI Society. However, now that the Ling YI Society's status had already been revealed, it was only natural that they would have higher recruitment standards.
"Is this the true strength of the Ling YI Society?"
Inside White River City, Blue Phoenix, who had been paying attention to the situation, was indescribably shocked when she saw Stone Forest Town's peaceful state on the screen.
In the end, the Ling YI Society had only lost a little over 10,000 members despite the complete annihilation of an army of over 500,000 monsters.
Although the appearance of a large number of high-tiered NPCs was shocking, the Ling YI Society's Intermediate Mana Pulse Cannons and Miniature Ballistas were even more frightening.
After all, NPCs could not leave a town or city. However, the Intermediate Mana Pulse Cannons and Miniature Ballistas were different. They were absolute war weapons that could be used to attack cities and seize territory. Even the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion could not compare to the Ling YI Society's foundations.
Originally, Blue Phoenix had planned to reveal several Gnome Cannons and several hundred Special Artillery Shells. Fortunately, she had not done so. Otherwise, she would have become a laughingstock.
"It seems that I need to report this matter to Big Sis Rain." After giving the matter some thought, Blue Phoenix felt that she had to report this matter to Feng Qianyu immediately.
Meanwhile, shortly after Shi Feng used a Guild Transfer Scroll to return to Stone Forest Town, he discovered that, at some point, a large number of independent players had lined up in front of the Guild Residence. These independent players were all quite high-leveled, with the weakest among them being Level 38, while the strongest had even reached Level 41. Their weapons and equipment were also considerably impressive, with the weakest piece being Secret-Silver Equipment. Meanwhile, there were over 200 of these independent players.
In addition, there were also quite a few Level 20-plus players lining up outside the Ling YI Society's entrance.
"Guild Leader, you're finally back," Shiuse Qiangwei said, smiling as he approached Shifeng when he saw him walk out of the Teleportation Hall.
"Did something happen?" Shifeng asked curiously when he saw Shiuse Qiangwei's excited expression.
"After we finished clearing out the monsters near the Guild Residence, some players who purchased Stone Forest Town's private houses teleported over. They said that they wish to cooperate with our Guild. After investigating the situation, aside from Starmoon Kingdom's well-known adventurer teams, there are also quite a few well-known adventurer teams and merchant players from other kingdoms and empires.
"They feel that Stone Forest Town's safety is no longer an issue, so they wish to cooperate with us. These adventurer teams are all willing to sell us the rare materials they obtain in the future at a 30% discount. However, they hope that the Ling YI Society can provide them with private houses suitable for their adventurer teams. In addition, these merchant players wish to sell some of our Shops in Stone Forest Town, and they are willing to pay the corresponding price."
Shiuse Qiangwei pointed at the various adventurer teams and merchant players waiting outside the Guild Residence.
In God's Domain, due to the safety of Guild Towns, even though many Guilds were willing to sign contracts with adventurer teams and sell their town's Shops to other players, none of these Guilds were willing to do so.
First of all, the player traffic in Guild Towns wasn't high enough. Then, there was the constant threat of war between Guilds. Nobody could guarantee the town's safety. In God's Domain, aside from the towns controlled by the various superpowers, neither adventurer teams nor merchant players were willing to set foot in the towns controlled by other Guilds.
Previously, due to Stone Forest Town's excellent conditions, some adventurer teams had been tempted to purchase private houses. Several hundred Gold might be an astronomical sum to ordinary players, but it was nothing to a kingdom's top adventurer teams. At most, it would cause them some heartache.
However, it was a different story if they decided to set foot in a Guild Town.
To an adventurer team with several hundred players, a house suitable for a party obviously wouldn't be able to accommodate all of them. Guilds would need to construct such a house in a Guild Town. However, which Guild would be so free as to construct such a large house?
Moreover, the amount of gold coins needed to purchase such a large house was not something that could be purchased with just a few hundred gold coins.
Hence, both sides would need to negotiate certain conditions first.
This way, the town's development and the Guild's income would increase.
However, before a Guild Town had stabilized, no adventurer team had dared to take such a risk.
Now, however, the situation had changed. If Stone Forest Town could repel such an army of monsters, who in the entire Starmoon Kingdom could possibly capture the town?
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Stone Forest Town had already become an NPC town in the eyes of players.
Due to this reason, many well-known adventurer teams and merchant players had rushed to Stone Forest Town, afraid that other adventurer teams and merchant players would snatch the town away from them if they delayed any longer.
Even Shiuse Qiangwei couldn't make the decision to allow so many adventurer teams and merchant players to swarm into Stone Forest Town. Hence, he had been waiting for the Shifeng's return.
