"Inferior Legendary?"
Shifeng was stunned when he saw the system notification.
As far as he could remember, connecting Auction Houses to Guild Cities was only as difficult as an Epic Team Quest. Connecting Auction Houses to Guild Cities was slightly more difficult, and connecting Auction Houses to Guild Cities was only as difficult as an Epic Team Quest. He had never even heard of an Inferior Legendary Team Quest.
Although Inferior Legendary Quests were only one rank higher than Epic Quests, the difference between the two was like the difference between heaven and earth. It was like the difference between peak experts and apex experts. Even apex experts would have a difficult time completing an Inferior Legendary Quest, and that was only if they had the support of a superpower.
Without the support of a superpower, one would need heaven-defying luck to complete an Inferior Legendary Team Quest.
While Shifeng was in a daze, the sound of another system notification reached his ears.
System: Congratulations! You are the first player in God's Domain to activate the Road to Prosperity. There will be no penalty for failure. If you succeed, you will receive a Peak Construction Design or a Gold Town Promotion Order.
A Peak Construction Design or a Gold Town Promotion Order? Shifeng could not help his excitement when he read the system notification.
Whether it was a Peak Construction Design or a Gold Town Promotion Order, both were extremely rare items in God's Domain. Every one of them was worth as much as a Fragmented Legendary item.
Any Peak Construction Design could easily attract a large number of players to a city. It was also the foundation for all Advanced Cities to become Main Cities. Otherwise, it would be impossible to become a Main City.
A Guild City would only become a true headquarters after becoming a Main City. Even Tier 5 existences would have a difficult time dealing with a Main City-level Guild City. At the very least, one would need a group of Tier 5 or Tier 6 God-ranked players to destroy a Main City-level Guild City.
This was also why Shi Feng believed that only Guilds with Main Cities could be considered true first-rate powers. In addition, first-rate powers generally had Tier 5 players defending them. With the home-ground advantage, the combat power of a Tier 5 player would be significantly higher. Hence, even the various superpowers would have to expend a lot of effort and resources to conquer a first-rate power.
Some superpowers even had to spend two or three months to capture a Main City.
As for the Gold Town Promotion Order, it could unconditionally upgrade an Advanced Town to a Basic City.
Every superpower dreamed of owning a Basic City at this stage of the game. Not only would a Basic City provide a stable source of income, but it would also allow a superpower to occupy a territory. It would also serve as the foundation for a superpower's survival in a Level 100 neutral map.
There were plenty of Level 100 neutral maps in God's Domain, and every neutral map had its own unique features and resources. If a Guild had an additional location to develop in, it would be of great help to its members.
The various major powers desperately needed these two items at this stage of the game. Even though players were still a long way from reaching Level 100, they still needed to prepare a lot to explore Level 100 maps. In the past, the various major powers had only begun to prepare after reaching Level 90. By the time players reached Level 90, it was already too late.
Normally, when players wanted to explore a Level 100 map, they had to start making preparations at Level 80. For example, they needed to prepare potions and items to deal with the various hostile environments of neutral maps. To produce these potions and items, they needed to raise their Lifestyle players' levels. At the same time, they needed to grind for recipes and designs.
If players waited until they reached Level 90 to take action, even superpowers would have their hands full. They would have to spend a long time exploring Level 100 neutral maps, especially during their Tier 3 Promotion Quests.
At the end of the day, Ling Yi's foundation was still too weak. Hence, he needed to prepare as soon as possible. After all, after players reached Tier 2, they needed roughly the same amount of time to level up before reaching Level 100. After reaching Tier 2, players didn't need much more time to level up from Level 50 to Level 100 than they did from Level 1 to Level 50. The reason why players' leveling speed was so slow was mainly due to the increased number of battles between players. In addition, it was much more difficult to obtain top-tier weapons and equipment.
Thinking up to this point, Shifeng opened the parchment Weissman had given him.
Written on the parchment were the items and conditions required to connect to the Auction House. So long as he completed these tasks, he would be able to connect to White River City's Auction House and Stone Forest Town's Auction House.
As expected of an Inferior Legendary Quest. Sure enough, the items required are insane. Shifeng frowned as he read the parchment's contents.
One item and one condition were required to connect to the Auction House.
One item required 100 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals, and the condition was to complete a Hero Crusade Quest.
Although the items and conditions didn't seem like much, every one of them was incredibly difficult to complete. Even the various superpowers had trouble dealing with the Hero Crusade Quest. Setting aside the 100 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals, the various superpowers most likely didn't even know what a Hero Crusade Quest was.
Hero Crusade Quests were also known as Kingdom-Level Crusade Quests. Even an entire kingdom would find these Hero Crusade Quests troublesome. Hence, it was easy to imagine how difficult these Hero Crusade Quests were for adventurers. To superpowers, a Hero Crusade Quest was a nightmare.
In the past, first-rate Guilds had been powerless to complete Hero Crusade Quests. The various superpowers had even sacrificed tens of thousands of expert players to complete Hero Crusade Quests. Even apex experts had died several times to complete the Hero Crusade Quests.
Now, they had to complete a Hero Crusade Quest just to connect to a single Auction House. This was practically asking for a beating.
To Shifeng, 100 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals weren't particularly difficult to obtain. After all, Ling Yi had long since begun exploring the Tower of Time. She had collected over 50 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals. Once she sent Ke Le and the others to the Tower of Time, it wouldn't be difficult to obtain 100 units of Seven Luminaries Crystals.
Only, Hero Crusade Quests were extremely troublesome.
I recall that Ouroboros accepted a Hero Crusade Quest when it was Level 70 in the past. The Hero Crusade Quest targeted the Lord of Fire in an ancient secret land. We can give it a try. After giving the matter some thought, Shifeng recalled the Starmoon Kingdom's Hero Crusade Quest in the past. He felt that the only Hero Crusade Quest they could attempt right now was the Lord of Fire.
Although Ouroboros had failed to raid the Lord of Fire in the past, the main reason for their failure was their lack of Fire Resistance. They hadn't been able to contend with the Lord of Fire at all. On the contrary, Ouroboros had defeated the Lord of Fire when it had reached Level 100, causing a commotion in the Starmoon Kingdom.
Hero Crusade Quests were one-off quests. However, a successful raid would significantly increase the Guild's Popularity. More nobles and even royal NPCs would be willing to post quests in the Guild. Players could even be enfeoffed and become the lord of a territory. Only, it was extremely difficult to reach this rank.
Following which, Shifeng prepared to give the quest a try. While obtaining Fire Resistance might be difficult for other powers, it wasn't difficult for Shifeng. After all, Ling Yi had killed the Flame Demon King and obtained the Flame Demon's Crown, a piece of top-tier Fire Resistance equipment. With his own Fire Resistance and Master Fire Resistance Potions, Ling Yi's combat standards were far superior to Ouroboros's.
As Shifeng left the City Hall and prepared to head to Candlelight to prepare for the Crusade Quest, Shiuse Qiangwei contacted him.
"Guild Leader, something big has happened. Starlink has made a move just now. It has sent every core member of Zero Wing an invitation letter. It wants us to join the Guild, and it's offering us three times the price. Moreover, Starlink has poached a group of Candlelight's Advanced Lifestyle players. Moreover, we've been selling our weapons and equipment for Credits, but Starlink is selling them at an even lower price. This has drastically reduced our sales volume," Aqua Rose said hurriedly. "The entire Guild is talking about this."
"Starlink has finally decided to use its capital?" Shifeng could not help but chuckle.
"Guild Leader, you're still in the mood to laugh? Our Guild is already running low on Credits. With Starlink's actions, I'm afraid that many people are already considering this issue. If these people leave, the Guild's development will stagnate again," Shiuse Qiangwei said, exasperated.
"I understand. How about this? Notify A Melancholy Smile and Youlan and tell them to lower their prices in all of Starlink's cities in the Dark Night Empire and purchase the Dark Night Empire's specialty materials at a high price. Since Starlink wants to make life difficult for Ling Yi in the Starmoon Kingdom, we won't let Starlink have it easy in the Dark Night Empire, either," Shifeng said calmly.
