As soon as the system notification ended, a system window popped up. Two options that released a faint blue glow appeared before Shi Feng's eyes.
Despite his many years of experience, Shifeng couldn't help his excitement when he saw these two options.
Current God's Domain's players, including the various superpowers, might know that the Peak Construction Design and Gold Town Promotion Order were powerful items, but they had no idea how powerful these items were. However, Shifeng knew exactly how powerful these items were.
Now that these two items had appeared, they could affect a power's rise and fall. Superpowers were no exception.
A Peak Construction Design might not seem like much, as it was only a building, but a Guild City needed a Peak Construction if it wanted to become a Main City.
What was a Main City?
An NPC city like White River City was already large enough. However, according to the standard of a Guild Town, it was only at the standard of an Advanced City. It was still far from being a Main City. Throughout Star-Moon Kingdom, only Star-Moon City had reached the standard of a Main City.
Meanwhile, a Main City was a Guild's foundation. Even a superpower would have to pay an astronomical price to capture a Main City ten years later. Otherwise, the various superpowers would've long since annihilated the various first-rate Guilds in God's Domain.
Without a Main City, a Guild couldn't be considered a first-rate Guild.
This was the value of a Peak Construction Design. On the market, a Peak Construction Design was even more valuable than an ordinary Fragmented Legendary item. If a Peak Construction Design appeared in an Auction House, the various major powers wouldn't be stingy with their Fragmented Legendary items. After all, a single Peak Construction Design could create a Main City.
As for the Gold Town Promotion Order, it was slightly inferior. It could only promote an Advanced Town to a Basic City.
However, to current God's Domain, a Gold Town Promotion Order was no less valuable than a Peak Construction Design. This was because players weren't far from completing their Tier 3 Promotion Quests. Without a Guild City guarding a Level 100 neutral map, it would be extremely difficult to complete their Promotion Quests. Unfortunately, upgrading an Advanced Town to a Basic City was extremely difficult. Moreover, it would take a lot of time. It wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight.
Even after mainstream players had reached Level 100, very few superpowers owned a Guild City, not to mention other Guilds. One could just imagine the benefits of having an additional Guild City.
"Let's go with the Gold Town Promotion Order." Shifeng hesitated for a moment before choosing the Gold Town Promotion Order.
A Main City was indeed invincible under Tier 5. However, the time required to upgrade a Guild City to a Main City was no laughing matter. In particular, Ling Yi's current situation, Ling's Main City would most likely disappear from God's Domain before she could complete her Main City.
On the other hand, the Gold Town Promotion Order was the most practical. It would instantly provide Zero Wing with an additional layer of protection.
After obtaining the Gold Town Promotion Order, Shi Feng made his way to White River City's Auction House. Now that he had the Auction House Authorization, he could finally display the NPC Auction House's true value.
Shifeng grew excited just thinking about it.
White River City's Auction House was connected to several neighboring cities, and the city's player population exceeded 15,000,000. Meanwhile, the items these players placed in the NPC Auction House would appear in Stone Forest Town. This was the equivalent of Stone Forest Town instantly becoming a town with a player population of 15,000,000. Moreover, the items sold in Stone Forest Town's Auction House would also appear in White River City's Auction House, greatly increasing the competitiveness of White River City's Auction House.
With these two factors complementing each other, White River City's development speed and profits would be far superior to those of superpowers' Guild Towns and NPC Auction Houses.
Shortly after Shi Feng entered the crowded White River City Auction House, Aqua Rose suddenly contacted him. Through the video call, Aqua Rose's expression was one of panic.
"Did something happen to the Guild?" Shifeng asked, confused.
Fire Dance and the others had just repelled the Mad Beast Legion blocking the entrance to Starmoon Kingdom. Starlink would most likely need a long time to prepare before it could deal with Silverwing Town. As for dealing with Ling Yi in the Starmoon Kingdom, that was even more impossible. Even a fool could see the effects of a 1-star Honorary Guild. Unless Starlink had lost its mind, it wouldn't fight Ling Yi in the Starmoon Kingdom.
"No … No! Something big has happened in the Dark Night Empire!" Shiuse Qiangwei said hurriedly. "I've just received news that Starlink has dealt a heavy blow to Unyielding Soul while it was trying to capture the Ancient Undead Country's Buried Bones Fortress. Over half of Unyielding Soul's experts have been killed or injured. Now, Unyielding Soul will have a hard time establishing a foothold in the Ancient Undead Country. Starlink's next step will be to wipe out the Dark Night Empire's various powers and prevent them from causing trouble in Dark Night City. Even the powers that have allied with the Hundred Flowers Palace have announced that they've severed all ties with the Palace."
The Dark Night Empire's three superpowers had always vied for supremacy. Although Starlink had secured Dark Night City's Auction House, Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor could still contend with Starlink in the empire's other territories. Hence, although the empire's various superpowers feared Starlink's strength in the Dark Night Empire, they still made plenty of underhanded moves.
However, now that Unyielding Soul had suffered a heavy blow and lost a significant portion of its combat power, it was already at its limit to protect itself. It most likely wouldn't be able to pin down Starlink. Meanwhile, Crimson Emperor's attitude toward Starlink had always been lukewarm, and it had only appeared to side with Unyielding Soul on the surface. Now, however, it obviously wouldn't be willing to take on Starlink's main force.
Starlink would definitely consolidate its position and strength in the Dark Night Empire. At that time, both Ling Yi's Shops in the empire and the Hundred Flowers Palace would fall.
Once Starlink consolidated its position and strength in the Dark Night Empire, it would be able to mobilize more forces to deal with Ling Yi.
Ling Yi might be doing well in the Ore Empire right now, but the main reason for that was Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor. Otherwise, Ling Yi wouldn't have been able to defend Silverwing Town.
"As expected of Starlink. It managed to deal a heavy blow to Unyielding Soul despite fighting on two fronts." Shifeng couldn't help but marvel at Starlink's foundations.
Although he had known that Starlink had the Starline Corporation's support in the past, he hadn't thought that the Guild would be this strong. It was no wonder why the Secret Pavilion had allowed Starlink to become an advanced member.
"Guild Leader, what should we do now? It wasn't easy for the Dark Night Empire to make some progress. I'm afraid it's over now. Should we give up now? "Aqua Rose asked.
If they sold the empire's resources and Shops for a good price before Starlink had the time to clean up the Dark Night Empire, they wouldn't get a single cent back. On the contrary, they'd have to fork out a lot of money.
Most likely, many of the empire's powers were already selling their resources and Shops.
"No! This is a good opportunity for us. I'm sure many powers are already selling their resources and Shops. Send someone to negotiate with them. If the price is right, we'll take them, "Shifeng said, chuckling as he shook his head.
Since God's Domain's development, the various kingdoms and empires' Lands and Shops had already solidified. This was especially true for good Lands and Shops. At most, they could be traded.
Unlike the various superpowers, Ling Yi hadn't started from scratch. Now that Starlink wanted to solidify its position and strength in the Dark Night Empire, this was the perfect opportunity for Ling Yi to take action.
"This …" Shiuse Qiangwei was stunned.
Now that everyone was running for their lives, they were rushing into the Dark Night Empire's territory. Although they'd gain a lot from doing so, the risk was even greater.
"Let's negotiate with them first. Starlink might be very powerful, but Ling Yi isn't some random nobody that can be wiped out so easily!" Shifeng said seriously.
"I understand." Shiuse Qiangwei nodded.
If they succeeded, Ling Yi Society would rise to a whole new level. After all, Starmoon Kingdom was only a kingdom. Its resources couldn't compare to an empire's.
After Shifeng and Shiuse Qiangwei finished discussing the various powers' Lands and Shops, the Shifeng arrived at the top-floor hall of White River City's Auction House.
"Lord Protector, how may I help you?" Hopper, the Auction House's senior administrator, asked respectfully when he saw Shifeng.
"Mhm. I wish to share the resources of White River City's Auction House and Stone Forest Town's Auction House. This is Lord Weissman's proof," Shifeng said as he took out Weissman's Archon Certificate.
Hopper was surprised at first, but he quickly accepted the parchment from Shifeng and inspected it carefully.
"That's right. This is Lord Weissman's proof." After confirming that there was no mistake, Hopper said even more respectfully, "Please wait a moment, my lord. I'll go through the relevant procedures."
Shifeng nodded. This wasn't the first time he had done something like this.
The two Auction Houses operated on two different systems. Connecting them would take some time. Meanwhile, the amount of time required would depend on the Auction Houses' standards and resources. The more resources the two Auction Houses had, the more time it would take.
Finally, after waiting for over an hour, Hopper returned and handed a simple token to Shifeng.
"My lord, this is the certificate for managing the two Auction Houses' warehouses. Now that the handover between the two Auction Houses has been completed, you may use this certificate to access the warehouses at any time," Hopper explained.
Shi Feng received the Auction House's management certificate and inspected it.
"A Silver Auction House certificate?" Shifeng was surprised when he saw the certificate.
Normally, the Bronze Auction House's Auction House Connection Certificate allowed the two Auction Houses to share goods and receive a certain commission. Meanwhile, as the number of transactions increased, not only would the NPC Auction House's development speed increase, but the Auction House's Auction House Connection Certificate would also be upgraded, allowing the Auction House to obtain more benefits.
