"Twenty percent of the profits?" Yuan Tiexin frowned. "Your asking price is too high. Do you know how difficult it is to capture an Orc city? That's not something you can accomplish easily with just a few mercenaries. "
In the Orc Empire, the defenses of any random Orc city were enough to crush a first-rate Guild.
Setting aside the city's defensive magic array, there were already over a million Orcs guarding the city. There were also all sorts of defensive structures. Although there were only three Mythic Orcs guarding the city, there were thousands of Grand Lords inside.
First-rate Guilds couldn't even begin to imagine how much manpower and resources they had invested in the city.
"My asking price isn't high. Moreover, I believe that the Ling YI Society is worth it. If you only need to hire NPCs, according to your price, I can send 10,000 NPC mercenaries to assist you. However, our Guild won't send a single person," Shifeng explained.
The Secret Pavilion's asking price would most likely make ordinary first-rate Guilds envious.
Ten black cards could allow more of the Guild's members to participate in the simulation training system, which would significantly increase their combat experience against expert players. Otherwise, Jian Ying and the others wouldn't have reached the Refinement Realm standard so quickly.
Meanwhile, the high-potential Lands in the Apocalypse Empire's major cities weren't something that could be purchased even with tens of thousands of Gold. Not to mention, there were two plots of high-potential Lands in the Orc Empire's major cities. As long as the Guild set up a Shop there, it could generate a steady income.
Although the offer was tempting, to the current Ling YI Society, the benefits weren't worth the effort.
Although he wasn't very familiar with capturing cities in the Orc Empire, he knew a lot about capturing foreign races' cities.
In God's Domain, capturing a foreign race's city was a long war of attrition. Many players would have to participate in the war. This was especially true when it came to destroying the city's defensive magic array. With players' current standards, it would take at least several days to deplete the city's defensive magic array's energy. Only with Tier 5 destructive power would they be able to deplete the city's magic array's energy.
The Ling YI Society had finally ushered in a stable period of development. Naturally, they couldn't afford to waste too much of their combat power just to help the Secret Pavilion.
"Only NPC mercenaries?" Yuan Tiexin gave the matter some thought. Their main target was the NPC mercenaries. Only with enough mercenaries would they be able to pin down the Mythic Orcs and Grand Lords in the city. As for the Ling YI Society's combat power, they hadn't considered it in the first place. "Alright, but 10,000 mercenaries are too few. We need at least 15,000."
"That won't be a problem." Shi Feng nodded.
Now that he had 50,000 contribution points, it would only cost him 45,000 points to hire 15,000 mercenaries for one operation.
To the current Zero Wing, Guild Contribution Points weren't of much use to it for the time being. After all, just developing Zero Wing City required a significant investment. Even if Zero Wing wanted to capture another town or city, it didn't have that many Guild Contribution Points to spare.
Right now, his main goal was to obtain a large number of Coins and Magic Crystals.
Following which, the two sides signed a contract. Yuan Tiexin then handed Shifeng ten black cards. As for the two potential plots of Land in the Apocalypse Empire, Shifeng chose Moon Bay City, a coastal city in the Apocalypse Empire.
Although there were many coastal cities in the Apocalypse Empire, there were only a total of four coastal cities. Moon Bay City was the closest to Ocean Viewing Town. When the time came, they could use Moon Bay City's potential plots of Land as a temporary warehouse.
"This is the information I gave you earlier. You should prepare yourselves as soon as possible. When the time comes, not only will the several kingdoms be affected, but even the Black Dragon Empire will likely suffer heavy losses. Originally, I had planned to have Purple Jade spar with your Guild's experts, but the terms of our transaction have changed. We'll need to return and make the necessary preparations," Yuan Tiexin said as he handed a letter to Shifeng. He then sighed and left with Purple Jade.
"Affected several kingdoms?" Shifeng tore open the letter in surprise. After reading the letter, he sneered and said, "Nine Dragons Emperor really is bold. Isn't he afraid of burying himself in the grave?!"
The letter's contents were simple. Nine Dragons Emperor had assisted Beast Emperor in holding a sacrificial ceremony in the Black Dragon Empire, activating the Black Dragon Empire's Evil God's Temple. To the majority of players, this would be a disaster.
An empire's Evil God's Temple was different from a kingdom's. After activating the Evil God's Temple, not only would Beast Emperor's status rise, but he would also be able to use the empire's Evil God's Temple's sacrificial altar, allowing Evil Demons and Evil Beasts to fight each other. The victor would then devour the loser, increasing the Evil Demons and Evil Beasts' potential and making it easier to create powerful Evil Demons and Evil Beasts.
Given enough time, Beast Emperor could even destroy an empire.
This was also why the activation of the Evil God's Temple had nearly destroyed an empire in the past.
Currently, Beast Emperor was already on the move in several kingdoms and the Black Dragon Empire's borders, constantly killing players to expand his strength.
According to the Secret Pavilion's investigation, Nine Dragons Emperor was helping Beast Emperor because he wanted Beast Emperor to use this opportunity to annihilate the Ling YI Society, depriving Feng Qianyu of any help in the contest for Thunder Island.
"Does he think he can annihilate the Ling YI Society with this?" Shifeng smiled. He then tore the letter to shreds.
If this were before, the activation of the empire's Evil God's Temple would indeed pose a significant threat to him. However, the situation had changed. He had already established Ling Yi City.
A city was different from a town. Whether it was in terms of offense or defense, it was on a completely different level.
However, the only problem was Magic Crystals.
Whether it was a town's defense or a city's defense, both required a large number of Magic Crystals to display their true strength.
It seems I'll have to secure that Manatite vein as soon as possible, Shifeng thought. However, with my current strength, I'm still lacking. I need more Tier 2 players. I need to find a way to get more of my Guild's members to complete their Tier 2 Promotion Quests.
The Manatite vein's island in the Sea of Death was simply too dangerous for Tier 1 players. Only Tier 2 players could pose a threat to the Guild. However, the Tier 2 Promotion Quests were easier said than done. Currently, many of the main force's players had already reached Level 50. However, it was extremely difficult for them to complete their Promotion Quests. Not only did they need weapons and equipment, but they also needed to meet the required standards of combat standards.
"Head Instructor, the White Tiger Dojo's representatives wish to discuss a new partnership with you. Should I invite them in now?" Liang Jing asked after entering the reception room.
"Again?" Shifeng recalled the White Tiger Dojo's request. Immediately, he said, "They really are annoying."
"Head Instructor, the White Tiger Dojo's representatives have already visited several times. If we don't meet them, I'm afraid …" Liang Jing hurriedly tried to dissuade Shifeng when she saw that he was about to refuse a meeting.
She didn't know what to say to Shifeng. If it were her Chairman, he would've most likely gone out to greet the White Tiger Dojo's representatives before they even arrived. Yet, Shifeng showed no interest in meeting the White Tiger Dojo's representatives.
What was the White Tiger Dojo?
It was one of the top dojos in the country. The Big Dipper Dojo was no match for it. The White Tiger Dojo could crush the Big Dipper Dojo with a single finger.
However, what surprised her the most was the White Tiger Dojo. Despite rejecting the White Tiger Dojo's representatives several times, the White Tiger Dojo still insisted on visiting. If news of this spread, nobody would believe it.
"Alright, let them come," Shifeng said, nodding helplessly.
