God's Domain's system announcement echoed in everyone's minds for a long time. Even Shifeng was stunned for a moment.
"How is it so fast?" Shifeng's expression darkened when he saw the system notification.
The Return of the Survivors was a massive expansion pack that affected the entire God's Domain. It was no longer limited to a single country or country. As a result, it had a massive impact on God's Domain's various powers.
As far as he could remember, the Return of the Survivors should've happened when mainstream players had reached Level 70 or above. However, mainstream players had only reached Level 50, and the various large Guilds only had a few Tier 2 players. Yet, the Return of the Survivors had already been triggered.
This might be a good thing for other powers, but it wasn't good news for the Ling YI Society.
Now that the Return of the Survivors had activated, the Ancient Humans that had left God's Domain due to the Ancient God's War had returned.
Their return wasn't a big deal, but these Ancient Humans had retained some combat and lifestyle techniques from ancient times. Unlike the God's Domain continent, many of these techniques had long since been lost after several major wars.
Meanwhile, the Return of the Survivors had brought these techniques with them. It was easy to imagine how much of an impact it would have on current players. In addition, the teleportation fees between the various kingdoms had decreased sharply. The cost of Guild Transfer Scrolls had also decreased significantly. Now, both independent and Guild players could travel between kingdoms with greater ease. As a result, the competition between the various kingdoms' powers had intensified.
However, these changes weren't the most significant. The greatest impact of the Return of the Survivors was still in the real world.
After the Return of the Survivors had activated, the Main God System had also activated the Mental Assistance System, which would allow players' reactions and movements in God's Domain to resemble their bodies in the real world. Players would also feel more comfortable in God's Domain, and they wouldn't feel as if they had two bodies in the real world.
In addition, the Return of the Survivors had also introduced the EXP Potion, which cost 1 Silver per bottle. The potion had a duration of six hours and would expire upon death. The potion could help low-level players level up quickly, doubling the amount of EXP they gained. Of course, the potion's effects were limited to mainstream players' levels, as determined by the Main God System. Once players reached mainstream players' levels, the EXP Potion would become useless.
The way to obtain it was to have a reputation with the survivors that reached Respected. After completing a series of quests, the right to purchase it would be unlocked.
Due to the introduction of the EXP Potion, the number of players that had joined God's Domain in the past had exploded for a short time. As a result, God's Domain had transformed into an era of newcomers. Expert after expert had appeared in various parts of God's Domain. As for the major corporations that had joined God's Domain later on, they had also benefited from the EXP Potion, their influence skyrocketing.
After all, to many players of the later stages of the game, the only difference between them and current peak players was levels. This was also the reason why major corporations and powerful experts couldn't exhibit their true strength. However, the EXP Potions made up for this gap, increasing the competition in God's Domain by several times.
As a result, the Secret Pavilion's God's Domain Experts List often experienced changes. The experts that had appeared on the list in the previous issue might disappear in the next issue. One could just imagine how frightening the new expert players were.
The Ling YI Society had finally gained some advantages, but now, due to the return of the survivors, it had returned to its original state …
"Guild Leader, the internet is in an uproar over the new expansion pack. The official website has released some information about the new expansion pack. It says that, after the system update, Ancient Survivors will appear in the various NPC cities. These Ancient Survivors will teach players advanced combat techniques for various classes. Each technique only costs 3 Silver to learn," Shiuse Qiangwei said in surprise as he read the information on the website.
Previously, players had to rely on themselves to explore the various combat techniques of various classes. However, many elite players had only grasped some of the basic combat techniques. Advanced combat techniques, on the other hand, were the various large Guilds' secrets. Moreover, the various large Guilds didn't have a system for these techniques, yet now, God's Domain was selling these techniques …
One had to know that for it to be called an advanced combat skill, it was generally close to the level of a combat skill.
Once this expansion pack was released, the combat standards of God's Domain's players would improve by a large margin, instantly narrowing the gap between independent players and Guild players. Meanwhile, when the various large Guilds obtained Advanced Combat Techniques, the gap between their elite members and their experts would also be narrowed. This would give the entire God's Domain a new evaluation of expert players' combat standards.
I need to speed things up, Shi Feng thought as he took a look at the Sea of Death's official forums.
At this moment, the majority of independent players were eagerly anticipating the launch of the new expansion pack. There was no doubt that the new expansion pack would significantly reduce the gap between players. He needed to complete the Ling Yi Society's expert nurturing system before everyone else reached the same level. Only then could he ensure the Ling YI Society's advantage.
Meanwhile, in the Ore Empire's Crimson Flame Fortress …
"Vice Guild Leader, although we still haven't found out who activated the new expansion pack, the Blackwater Consortium's rise is imminent. The various super-first-rate Guilds and Super Guilds have been relying on their long-standing foundations in the virtual gaming world to suppress us. Now that the Advanced Combat Techniques have been unlocked, with the Blackwater Consortium's foundation, we'll be able to nurture a large group of experts very quickly," Snow Scar, who wore silver-scaled armor, reported to Xuanwu Chisha, who sat in the Guild Leader's office.
The new expansion pack was undoubtedly good news for the various major corporations. It would be even more helpful for the Blackwater Consortium. After all, the Blackwater Consortium had plenty of real-life experts under its wing. With the new Advanced Combat Techniques, nurturing a large group of experts would be a piece of cake.
"What's the situation at the capital's armory?" Xuanwu Chisha asked calmly as she glanced at Snow Scar's excited expression. She spoke as if the new expansion pack's launch was a trivial matter.
"We've taken care of the outer perimeter. Next, we'll enter the armory's inner area. Originally, it would've taken us a lot of time, but now that the new expansion pack has been released, I believe it won't be long before we secure the inner area," Snow Scar said.
"Good! Once we secure the armory, we can start preparing for our attack on Silverwing Town! " Xuanwu Chisha said, a disappointed expression appearing on her face as she looked at the Ling YI Society's map. "I had thought that this would bring me some fun, but it seems that it's over before it even started. What a boring Guild."
At the same time, the various large Guilds and corporations began to secretly prepare for the new expansion pack.
Meanwhile, when the Shifeng on Kama Island noticed that it was almost time to log out, they promptly had everyone log out and rest.
The first thing the Shifeng did after logging out of the game was to prepare for the return of the survivors.
He instructed Hei Zi to increase the recruitment of Ling Yi's Workshop and recruit as many players with potential as possible. After all, once the EXP Potion was released, lagging players would have a much easier time catching up to the main force.
Previously, he could've put this matter aside, but now, if he didn't hurry to recruit talents, other Guilds might snatch them away.
Currently, God's Domain's various major powers still didn't know about the EXP Potion. Even after the new expansion pack was released, players would only learn about the EXP Potion after reaching Respected Reputation. Meanwhile, it would take at least a dozen or so days to reach Respected Reputation.
During these dozen or so days, he had to seize the initiative as much as possible.
While Shi Feng was busy recruiting a large number of internal Guild members, Gentle Snow suddenly contacted him.
"Guild Leader, good news! The matter with the training center has been settled. The five major corporations can't hold on any longer and have already given up all their shares. From now on, the training center belongs to the Ling YI Society," Gentle Snow said, smiling.
"Good! Wonderful! "Shifeng was ecstatic when he heard Gentle Snow's words.
He had waited for this moment for far too long. Now, the Ling YI Society finally had its own training center.
