After Yan Ya left the meeting room, Shifeng immediately summoned the forgers the Adventurer Alliance had recruited.
Due to the Adventurer Alliance's rapid expansion, it would require a production chain of its own.
Hence, before Shi Feng left, he had instructed Yan Ya to recruit a group of Lifestyle players from the Adventurer Alliance. These Lifestyle players would be nurtured by the Adventurer Alliance.
As for the 400,000 Ice Jades he had brought from Lake Heart City, they would not be worth it if he sold them directly. They would only be valuable if they were refined into Ice Resistance Gemstones by Advanced Forgers.
Although Candlelight had plenty of Advanced Forgers, Candlelight's Advanced Forgers were normally busy crafting various major items. They simply did not have the manpower or time to process 400,000 Ice Jades.
Fortunately, the Ice Crystal World's Lifestyle players were quite skilled. This was especially true for weapon and equipment crafters. Almost all of these Lifestyle players were Advanced Lifestyle players. Hence, Shi Feng could use these Lifestyle players to refine 400,000 Ice Jades.
In less than ten minutes, over a hundred forgers had gathered in the meeting room. Every one of these forgers wore the Advanced Forger's Insignia.
If this happened in the Starmoon Kingdom, the various powers in the Starmoon Kingdom would definitely be astonished.
Throughout the Starmoon Kingdom, Candlelight was the only Advanced Forger that could gather over a hundred Advanced Forgers. No other trading firm or Guild could do so. Only, the forging standards of these Advanced Forgers were inferior to those of the continent of God's Domain.
At this moment, over a hundred Advanced Forgers stood quietly in the Asura Adventurers' meeting room. Every one of these Advanced Forgers was nervous and excited because an unreachable VIP was standing in the room. This VIP was none other than the Shifeng.
These Advanced Forgers weren't just nervous and excited because of the Shifeng's aura. Rather, it was because the Shifeng before them was the commander of the Asura Adventurers and the founder of the Adventurer Alliance.
He was the true number one person in Cold Wind City!
For freelance blacksmiths like them, such an important figure was simply from a different world. They did not expect to meet him in person, and they could boast about it to their friends for the rest of their lives.
"You have all signed a partnership contract with the Adventurer Alliance. From now on, you are the alliance's reserve members. Normally, your Contribution Points will be determined based on your performance. Once you accumulate a certain amount of Contribution Points, you will be promoted. The higher your promotion in the Adventurer Alliance, the better the benefits you'll enjoy in the future. In fact, you'll even receive benefits comparable to those of large Guilds' Vice Guild Leaders. Moreover, you'll have much more freedom than the various large Guilds' Vice Guild Leaders. As for whether you can reach this standard, that will depend on your individual efforts."
When the crowd heard the Shifeng's words, they were stunned on the spot. Their mouths were wide open, and they could not believe that this was true.
As long as they contributed enough to the Adventurer Alliance, they could be promoted. In fact, they could even receive the benefits and benefits of a large Guild's Vice Guild Leader.
Even the Vice Guild Leader of a large Guild was an upper echelon that they admired. Ordinary players like them could never hope to reach such a position. As for the benefits, if they worked in the Adventurer Alliance for a few years, they wouldn't have to worry about money for the rest of their lives. Even in their dreams, they knew that it was impossible for them to achieve such a position.
Yet, now that they had seen it with their own eyes, it was no longer illusory. Why wouldn't they be shocked and excited?
If not for the fact that the Shifeng standing before them was one of the Adventurer Alliance's founders, they would've scoffed at his words. However, since the Shifeng had said so, then it had to be true.
Immediately, the crowd's eyes burned with fighting spirit. They could not help but wish they could dive into the pile of materials and show off their skills.
"Commander, tell us what you want us to do! We'll do it to the best of our ability!"
"Commander, give us the mission!"
None of these players were fools. They knew that the Shifeng had called them here for a reason. Hence, they could not help but look at him anxiously.
"Alright, I'll get straight to the point, then. What they need to do now is forge and refine." The Shifeng glanced at the crowd's spirited faces. Nodding, he said, "However, the refinement you'll be doing is a little special. You won't be able to complete the final step during the refinement process. In other words, you won't receive any Proficiency Points. However, you will receive the corresponding Adventurer Alliance Points and Contribution Points. If there are no problems, you may head to the Forging Association. Your Forging Rooms have already been prepared there.
Refining Ice Jade was not easy. After all, Ice Jade was an advanced and rare material. The chances of producing an Ice Resistance Gemstone were very low. For Advanced Forgers, they only had a 20% success rate. Moreover, refining Ice Jade was very troublesome and required a lot of time. Only a Master Forger like Shi Feng had a slightly higher success rate of 30%. Even if he used some external materials, his success rate could reach 35%.
Although it might seem like a 15% difference, to any Lifestyle player, this 15% difference was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Gentle Snow had gone to great lengths to collect so many Ice Jade. It would be practically impossible for her to collect so many more in the future. To obtain more Ice Resistance Gemstones, Shi Feng planned to refine them himself.
Although having an Advanced Forger complete the refinement process and having him complete the final step was somewhat opportunistic and would result in a lower success rate, it was still limited. Moreover, doing so would save them a lot of time.
Hearing Shifeng's words, everyone immediately rushed out of the meeting room and dashed towards the Forging Association, afraid that they would be one step behind the others.
Elsewhere, Yan Ya had quickly finished organizing the Adventurer Alliance's new system and posted it on Cold Wind City's official forums.
The moment the Adventurer Alliance's new system was released, it caused an uproar among Cold Wind City's players.
"What's going on? Is the Asura Adventurers trying to sell their products at a high price? "
"What a big move! Just which corporation is behind the Asura Adventurers? Even if I can't reach Epic rank, I won't have to worry about food or clothing if I reach Gold rank in the Adventurer Alliance. "
"All hail the Asura Adventurers!"
"Crap! These benefits are even better than in a Guild! This won't do! I need to leave my Guild and join the Adventurer Alliance! "
…
Both independent players and Guild players were tempted by the Adventurer Alliance's new benefits.
Not only were there fewer restrictions in the Adventurer Alliance, but their benefits were also comparable to those in a Guild. Moreover, they had more freedom. Since that was the case, wouldn't it be better to join the Adventurer Alliance?
To independent experts, the Adventurer Alliance was even better. There were no restrictions, and once they reached a certain level, they could even receive a monthly Credits subsidy from the Adventurer Alliance.
Meanwhile, inside Hekati's Guild Residence …
Several upper echelons stood inside the dazzling Guild Leader's office. However, every one of them wore an indescribably gloomy expression.
"Have the Asura Adventurers lost their minds? They're actually offering such benefits to independent players? "
"Aren't they afraid of losing money to attract more people?"
The upper echelons present were shocked when they saw the Adventurer Alliance's new benefits. The various large Guilds that recruited a large number of players, especially those that received a salary, had strict restrictions. For example, these players had to grind Dungeons and Bosses every day. They had very little freedom. If they didn't do this, they wouldn't be able to recoup their losses.
However, the Adventurer Alliance was different. There weren't as many restrictions, and players had a lot of freedom. They could only exchange for items and earn the difference in price. The Adventurer Alliance's new benefits would cost them a lot. Only a madman would dare to do such a thing.
"Interesting. They're going to such lengths to collect rare materials for Cold Wind City?" Carnage's expression darkened. He then turned to a young woman beside him and asked, "How are the Twelve Heavens doing? Also, how are the items they've exchanged for from the Adventurer Alliance? "
"They've already rested and rested. We've also exchanged enough equipment for them. They can move out at any time," the young woman said, chuckling.
"Good. Let's head to the Snow Ruin now. It's about time we teach the Asura Adventurers that their actions are futile," Carnage said, smiling faintly.
Elsewhere, the Shifeng were frantically refining Ice Jades.
After a large group of Advanced Forgers worked on the Ice Jades, the Shifeng completed the final step. Although the final success rate was only around 32%, the Shifeng was satisfied.
After four days, the Shifeng finally refined the 400,000 Ice Jades and produced over 128,000 Ice Resistance Gemstones. Meanwhile, the Shifeng himself had reached Level 67.
