Crimson flames burned in the barren forest outside of the Elemental Altar, turning the forest into a sea of fire. The expert players who had come to harvest herbs nearby were stupefied.
Above the forest, there was a Flame Dragon that was eight to nine meters long. Its wingspan was more than twenty meters, and the flames burning all over its body lit up the dark sky.
"A Flame Dragon?"
"Crap! A Level 80, Tier 3 Archaic Species! If I remember correctly, the monsters in that area shouldn't be Level 75 yet. "
"Did something happen there?"
When the nearby herb-picking expert players saw the Flame Dragon hovering in the sky, curiosity filled their hearts. They could not help but rush over to take a look. After all, events happened from time to time in God's Domain. If they could resolve these events during this period of time, it would be the equivalent of completing a rare, high-level quest. They would be rewarded handsomely.
And in this scorching sea of fire, there was a damaged steel golem lying quietly.
As expected of a Bronze Puppet. Sure enough, destroying it won't be easy. Shifeng couldn't help his anticipation as he looked at the Steel Puppet's damaged body.
He already had the Bronze Puppet Forging Design. As long as Candlelight nurtured a sufficient number of Master Craftsmen, he could start crafting the Steel Puppet at any time once he collected the necessary materials.
Just like other war weapons, a Combat Puppet needed a sufficient number of Steel Puppets to display its true power. If he had three or four Steel Puppets, he'd have a hard time escaping.
The reason why a large number of Steel Puppets could display their true power was a common problem with many war weapons.
The Steel Puppet's attacks were too monotonous, making it easy for players to dodge or defend themselves. However, when the monotonous attacks reached a certain scale, even peak experts would have no choice but to wait for death.
If a single Bronze Steel Puppet was already so powerful, Shi Feng couldn't help but wonder what kind of power a dozen or even a hundred Steel Puppets could display. At that time, the Steel Puppet would most likely slaughter a city.
Just as Shifeng stored the Fire Spirit and prepared to use the Seven Luminaries Ring to leave, he noticed two golden lights shining from the Steel Puppet's remains.
"Irontooth's loot?" Shifeng immediately approached the items.
When Shi Feng picked up the two items on the ground, a slightly surprised expression appeared on his face.
Of the two items, one was a pair of Level 55 Secret-Silver ranked plate armor leg, while the other was a gemstone cube wrapped in steel.
Level 55 Secret-Silver Equipment was definitely top-tier equipment at this stage of the game. Most likely, even first-rate Guilds would only have a few pieces of such equipment. In Shifeng's opinion, Irontooth should have dropped this equipment.
However, the other gem wasn't Irontooth's loot. Instead, it was the Steel Golem's loot.
Steel core!
This thing was the power source of the steel puppets, and it was also a necessary material to make war puppets.
Throughout the entire process of making war puppets, the power source was the most difficult to make. Even an Intermediate Blacksmith's success rate was very low and only met the minimum requirement.
As long as he had the power source, it would be much easier to make the other parts. He could rely on the Basic Master Forger and other Basic Master Forgers to complete the task. After that, he would have another Combat Puppet.
"Looks like I've earned a War Golem." Shifeng looked at the steel core and saw that it was not damaged at all. He smiled faintly. All he needed to do now was to complete the body and he could use it immediately.
Following which, Shifeng stored the steel core and activated the Seven Luminaries Ring to teleport to the Icefire Mountain Range.
Long after Shifeng had left, the Tier 2 Assassins that had been collecting herbs in the area finally arrived. However, when they saw the collapsed Steel Golem and the scenery around them, they were stupefied.
"What a massive machine!"
"What's going on?"
"What kind of battle happened here? How could it change the terrain so drastically?"
While everyone was stunned by the scene before them, they noticed a player lying a short distance away from the Steel Golem's remains. When they saw this player's appearance, they were stupefied.
"Sin Realm's Irontooth? Why is he here? "
"What?! Irontooth is one of Sin Realm's Seven Great Experts! He's the main MT of Sin Realm's main force! How did he die here?! "
"Wait, there are traces of another player here, but that player seems to have used a Return Scroll to leave."
"Did that player kill Irontooth?"
…
When everyone thought of this possibility, a chill ran down their spines. Their hearts were filled with indescribable shock.
Irontooth, one of Sin Realm's Seven Great Experts, had actually died …
Immediately, these players posted this matter on the Purple Thorns Kingdom's official forums, causing a commotion among the kingdom's players.
"Amazing! He actually killed Sin Realm's Irontooth! "
"Just who would be so bold as to kill Irontooth?"
"Irontooth died in Glory Town. Crocodile Breaker also died in Glory Town. I'm guessing that Ye Feng is responsible for both deaths. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a coincidence."
"Amazing! Truly amazing! He has killed two of Sin Realm's Seven Great Experts as soon as he arrived in the Purple Thorns Kingdom. "
"Since he dared to kill two great experts from Sin Domain, Sin Domain will definitely not let Ye Feng off."
"The Ling YI Society really is amazing. It seems the Purple Thorns Kingdom is about to get lively."
When the Purple Thorns Kingdom's players saw one of Sin Realm's Seven Great Experts die, they couldn't help but marvel at the Ling YI Society's strength. Shifeng had killed two of Sin Realm's Seven Great Experts by himself. One could see just how powerful the Ling YI Society was.
Shifeng had gotten lucky the first time.
What about the second time?
For a time, Ye Feng's name spread like wildfire throughout the Purple Thorns Kingdom. Independent players, who had previously feared Sin Realm, began to actively apply to join the Ling YI Society.
Meanwhile, news of this matter had long since reached Sin Realm's Residence in Purple Thorns City.
"What did you say? The Steel Puppet was destroyed? " Lone Beacon frowned when he heard his subordinate's report, a chill spreading throughout the Guild Leader's office. "That's a Tier 3 Steel Puppet we're talking about. How could a Tier 2 player possibly destroy it?"
"Guild Leader, it's true. I don't know what treasure Ye Feng used, but he actually summoned a Level 80, Tier 3 Archaic Species," Feather Hunter, the Ranger who had reported to Lone Beacon, said softly.
As Feather Hunter had been on a tracking quest, he hadn't been with Irontooth. Instead, he had observed from afar. Even so, when he had seen Sin Realm's Seven Great Experts slaughtered by the Shifeng, he had been relieved that he hadn't followed Irontooth.
"A Tier 3 Archaic Species? The Ling YI Society sure is generous! " Lone Beacon was surprised to hear this. He had never heard of such a treasure, yet Ye Feng was willing to use it on Ling Yi. However, Lone Beacon quickly regained his composure. Coldly, he said, "It seems that Sin Realm has never operated outside of the Purple Thorns Kingdom. A mere Ling Yi dares to bully us? Notify everyone in Sin Realm that from now on, no one who comes across Ling Yi will be spared!"
