Dragon Riders' members revealed ecstatic expressions when they sensed the new aura.
"It's true! That pressure is really gone! "
"Boss, if we can rest here, we won't even need to return to Dragonheart City. We can stay in the Gravity Mountain Range and level up. I'm afraid we'll surpass Heaven's Blade's eight adventurer teams in less than half a month."
Previously, they hadn't thought much of the Northern Fortress. After all, they had visited Thirteen Thrones' fortresses before, so they knew what a fortress was like.
To put it simply, a fortress was a temporary resting point. Aside from recovering Stamina and Concentration, it was a place to replenish supplies and repair weapons and equipment.
However, the Northern Fortress had shattered their understanding of the Gravity Mountain Range.
Setting aside the fact that the Northern Fortress's abundant Mana allowed them to accumulate the Double EXP buff, just the fact that the pressure in the Gravity Mountain Range disappeared was enough to satisfy them. They wouldn't even need to return to Dragonheart City to relax.
Although this omnipresent sense of oppression was not strong and had little effect on them, it would accumulate mental fatigue over a long period of time. This was especially true when they were in a difficult battle with monsters. This sense of oppression was like the straw that broke the camel's back, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
Hence, even if they could rest and reorganize in the Northern Fortress, they would return to Dragonheart City within four or five days to relieve themselves of the pressure.
They had already spent three days in the Gravity Mountain Range. Now that they had entered the Northern Fortress, the pressure had disappeared. They would only feel this comfortable after returning to Dragonheart City.
If they could relieve themselves of this pressure by entering the Northern Fortress, they wouldn't need to return to Dragonheart City at all. They could continue to stay in the Gravity Mountain Range. Not only could they level up faster and obtain more resources, but they could also save time and money traveling to and from the World Tower.
Swimming Dragon was ecstatic when he heard this news.
While this might not seem like much of a benefit, as long as Dragon Riders relied on the Northern Fortress's capabilities, they could gradually widen the gap between themselves and Dragonheart City's various adventurer teams. Surpassing Heaven's Blade's eight adventurer teams would be a piece of cake.
While Dragon Riders' members were enjoying the relaxing environment and strolling around the Northern Fortress, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the team chat.
"Boss, come here! I found something good! "a Level 87 Tigerkin Shield Warrior shouted excitedly.
"What good thing? Why are you making such a fuss? "Swimming Dragon was speechless.
After all was said and done, Dragon Riders was one of Dragonheart Island's well-known adventurer teams. Now that Dragon Riders had entered the Northern Fortress, he was at a loss for words after seeing Ling Yi and the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's members.
"Boss, it's the Stronghold's teleportation scroll! The Defensive Magic Tower sells Return Scrolls to strongholds! "the Tigerkin Shield Warrior said.
"What? Return Scroll? "Swimming Dragon's breathing became heavier when he heard this.
In the outside world, Return Scrolls could be used at will. However, in a place like the Gravity Mountain Range, Return Scrolls were like oases in the desert. In fact, Return Scrolls were much more valuable than oases.
The Gravity Mountain Range was simply too dangerous. Combined with the omnipresent pressure, players could unwittingly fall into a hopeless situation. They might be able to escape with an Instantaneous Movement Scroll, but they would encounter countless dangers on their way back.
If he had a Return Scroll, it would be equivalent to saving his life.
Moreover, now that they had the Return Scroll, they no longer needed to conserve their Stamina and Concentration for the return trip. Their range of travel had also doubled.
"Buy it! Hurry up and buy it! Even if it's only worth one Ancient Gold, we must buy it! "Swimming Dragon said, his eyes glowing.
Ancient Gold might be difficult to earn, but compared to his own life, let alone one Ancient Gold, even ten Ancient Gold was nothing. After all, at his level, he would miss out on too many things and opportunities if he died once.
"Boss, rest assured. The Return Scrolls are sold by NPCs. You can have as many as you want. Moreover, they're only worth ten Ancient Silver. Unfortunately, the Return Scrolls are bound to the player and cannot be used by others," the Tigerkin Shield Warrior said, chuckling.
"What? Ten Ancient Silver? "Swimming Dragon wondered if he had heard wrong.
Ten Ancient Silver might be unacceptable to ordinary players, but it wasn't a problem for experts. After all, just entering the Gravity Mountain Range cost five Ancient Silver. Entering the fortress cost one Ancient Silver, while resting in a hotel cost two to three Ancient Silver. Ordinary players wouldn't be willing to spend so much money to enter the Gravity Mountain Range.
Following which, Swimming Dragon ordered everyone in the Dragon Riders adventurer team to head to the Defensive Magic Tower to purchase Return Scrolls. Moreover, aside from the necessary accommodation and repair fees, they were prepared to spend all of their Ancient Silver on Return Scrolls. He was afraid that the Northern Fortress's Return Scrolls would rise in price or cease to sell.
However, what Swimming Dragon didn't know was that the system set the price for the Return Scrolls. They were a unique feature of the Defensive Magic Tower. Just like the Skills and Spells on weapons and equipment, they weren't subject to Shifeng's control. Moreover, Shifeng only received a 10% cut of the profits.
Swimming Dragon still wasn't satisfied even after he had everyone purchase Return Scrolls.
He knew full well that, so long as he grasped this opportunity, Dragon Riders' development would skyrocket.
"Notify everyone in the adventurer team and have them head to the Northern Fortress! From now on, the Northern Fortress will be Dragon Riders' main headquarters!" Swimming Dragon commanded.
After Swimming Dragon finished speaking, he immediately searched for four ordinary hotels in the Northern Fortress and spent 60 Ancient Gold per day to reserve them for long-term use. He intended to use these hotels as Dragon Riders' temporary headquarters and provide the adventurer team's members with a place to rest. This way, they wouldn't have to worry about not having a place to rest in the Northern Fortress and having to sleep on the streets.
After all, living in the Northern Fortress was similar to living in Dragonheart City. Only, Dragonheart City had more people and more items. However, the Northern Fortress also made it easier for players to level up and obtain resources. This was something that adventurer teams like Dragon Riders lacked the most.
Following Swimming Dragon's command, the Dragon Riders adventurer team's members in Dragonheart City promptly made their way to the World Tower.
Meanwhile, Dragon Riders' large-scale operation had attracted the attention of many adventurer teams that were close to the Dragon Riders adventurer team. These adventurer teams were all curious about the Dragon Riders adventurer team, and some of the adventurer team's members even started chatting with them.
"What are you guys trying to do? Is Dragon Riders planning some kind of large-scale operation? "
"It's not a large-scale operation. It's just that we're planning to move our main headquarters to the Northern Fortress."
"Have you guys lost your minds? Don't you know that War Blood has already announced it? "
"War Blood might be powerful, but we can just stay in the northern region. At worst, we won't go anywhere else in the Gravity Mountain Range. Let me tell you a secret. Ling Yi's Northern Fortress is amazing right now. Not only can players accumulate the Double EXP buff, but our team leader also said that the fortress doesn't have that pervasive pressure. Most importantly, the Northern Fortress even sells Return Scrolls. Even an ordinary expert like me can travel freely in the Gravity Mountain Range."
"You're lying, right?! It's not like I haven't visited Thirteen Thrones' fortress with a team before. "
"If you don't believe me, forget it. Once I surpass you in level, don't say I didn't warn you."
After Dragon Riders' members finished speaking, they hurriedly made their way to the Northern Fortress. They all wanted to reach the Gravity Mountain Range as soon as possible.
