When Shifeng finished speaking, silence fell over the reception room, which was packed with several dozen people. Divine Tribe's members looked at Xiang Shifeng with disdain.
"Isn't this bastard a little too ambitious?!"
"Crap! Star Valley?! He really doesn't think of himself as an outsider! He's actually trying to use us as a sacrifice! "
Every superpower on the western continent was familiar with Star Valley. In fact, many superpowers had always dreamed of owning a town or city in Star Valley.
This was because in Star Valley, there were not only a large amount of mineral resources, but also many ancient ruins.
Star Valley was a Level 100-plus forbidden land, and it was one of only two known God Mode Regional Dungeons on the western continent. Even ordinary players knew just how abundant the resources inside the Dungeon were. The various major powers' experts would definitely try to raid the Dungeon in the future.
Yet, Shifeng had ordered them to capture the Starlight Fortress without hesitation. This was simply a dream.
"President Hei Yan, that's a forbidden land. You overestimate the Silver Lion Legion. Even with the Great Elder's 100,000-man army, we won't be able to enter the Starlight Fortress, much less capture it," Macafre said, smiling bitterly at Shifeng's serious expression.
If Divine Tribe could capture the Starlight Fortress, it would've done so long ago. The benefits of owning a fortress in Star Valley were simply too great. No superpower wouldn't be tempted.
However, even now, not a single superpower had managed to capture a single fortress in Star Valley.
He also knew that Shi Feng's group was very strong, and ordinary peak experts were no match for them. However, raiding a fortress, especially one in a forbidden land like this, wasn't something a few players could accomplish. They'd need an extremely powerful legion. In fact, they might even need several powerful legions to accomplish such a feat.
Because this was no longer a battle, but a war!
"I understand your concerns, Vice Commander Macafre, but I've already done some research on the Starlight Fortress. With the Silver Lion Legion's help, I'm confident that we can capture it," Shifeng explained.
Star Valley had been an extremely famous resource paradise on the western continent in the past, and the fortresses in Star Valley were akin to mountains of gold and seas of silver. Hence, there was a lot of information about the fortresses in Star Valley.
In addition, Shi Feng had already estimated the Silver Lion Legion's strength, which was why he had chosen the Starlight Fortress.
Of the few fortresses in Star Valley, the Starlight Fortress had the highest chance of capturing. After all, Star Valley was a Level 100-plus forbidden land. Even Tier 3 players who had reached the peak of their strength would be in danger, not to mention Tier 3 players who were currently lacking in all aspects.
However, this was also the reason why Shi Feng had chosen the Starlight Fortress.
After all, the Starlight Fortress was a fortress left behind from ancient times, and it contained some of the Legacies that had been lost in the outside world.
During ancient times, the human race had had far more Tier 3 players than it did now. In fact, getting promoted to Tier 3 hadn't been particularly difficult. However, due to the loss of many of the human race's Legacies, the human race's progress in Tier 3 had been very slow.
If Shi Feng could capture the Starlight Fortress, Ling Yi's Tier 3 experts would become significantly stronger.
"Since you've already made your preparations, President Hei Yan, I won't say any more. Once the Silver Lion Legion has rested and reorganized, we'll set out immediately," Shi Feng said. Seeing the confident Shifeng, Macafre didn't say anything. After all, Divine Tribe had already agreed with the Shifeng that the Shifeng were free to attack any town they wanted. As for whether or not they could capture the town, that wasn't something he needed to worry about.
Following which, the Silver Lion Legion's 8,000 members rested and reorganized their weapons and equipment. They also prepared the potions and Magic Scrolls they would need to explore Star Valley. Once they were done resting, they would set out for Star Valley.
Meanwhile, inside the Residence's meeting room, Macafre and the others reported the situation to Adolf.
"He wants to capture Star Valley's fortress? Doesn't he know that Star Valley is a very special forbidden land? Even Berserk Skills are prohibited there. Players can only capture it with their own strength? "Adolf was surprised to hear Macafre's report.
Star Valley was a very special forbidden land. Players couldn't use any Berserk Skills inside. This was why the various superpowers had been helpless against the fortresses in Star Valley. After all, the Mythic monsters inside the fortresses were significantly stronger than the Mythic monsters in the outside world.
Without a Berserk Skill, Tier 3 experts would be powerless against these Mythic monsters. Moreover, there was more than one Mythic monster inside the fortress.
According to the various superpowers' investigations, the minimum number of Mythic monsters in these fortresses was three, with some as many as five. In addition, there were also a sea of Great Lords and Grand Lords. Just thinking about it made one's scalp tingle.
Let alone Tier 3 players, even Divine Tribe's trump card, the Tier 4 Hero Summoning Scroll, would be useless against such a fortress. Yet, the Shifeng actually dared to try and capture it …
"He said that he's already done his research. Moreover, he's confident that he can conquer the Starlight Fortress. He feels that there's a high chance of success," Crimson Witch said disdainfully.
At this stage of the game, even the various superpowers were only in the exploration phase of Star Valley.
If they wanted to raid one of Star Valley's fortresses, they'd have to wait until the various superpowers had several thousand Tier 3 players. Otherwise, just the number of Great Lords and Grand Lords would be more than enough to annihilate them, let alone the fortress's Mythic monsters.
"Everyone, be careful. If we lose 20% of our members, retreat immediately," Adolf Adolf said after giving the matter some thought. After giving the matter some thought, Adolf said, "The various superpowers are already preparing to raid Level 100 Team Dungeons. They'll definitely take action in the future. I don't want you to suffer any losses right now. Level 100 Team Dungeons are our Guild's top priority!"
"I got it!" MacAffrey nodded in response.
In his opinion, Adolf's words were true. Rather than trying to capture the Starlight Fortress, it was much better to focus on raiding Level 100 Team Dungeons.
After all, the weapons and equipment in Level 100 Team Dungeons could improve their overall strength by a large margin. They could also help the Guild's Tier 2 experts reach Tier 3 faster.
Only by having more Tier 3 players could the Guild grow stronger in the future.
Following which, Macafre led the Silver Lion Legion's 8,000 experts to the Teleportation Hall to meet up with the Shifeng. They then teleported to the Golden Sands Kingdom, which was the closest kingdom to Star Valley. Over 80% of the Golden Sands Kingdom's territory was desert.
After arriving at the Golden Sands Kingdom, the group rode on their Mounts for over ten hours and arrived at the outer region of the forbidden land, Star Valley.
Along the way, the Silver Lion Legion's members shocked the various experts exploring Star Valley. Although every member of the Silver Lion Legion wore a Black Cloak to hide their identities, they still radiated a frightening aura that deterred even Tier 3 experts from approaching them.
Finally, after three hours of travel, the Shifeng's team arrived at a small hill a short distance away from the Starlight Fortress, which was covered in a primeval forest. They could clearly see the fortress's towering towers and sturdy walls in the distance.
"Huh? Someone's already here?" Shifeng was a little surprised when he saw a group of players fighting a short distance away from the Starlight Fortress.
Star Valley was a forbidden land, and very few players could visit it at this stage of the game, not to mention the Starlight Fortress.
The Starlight Fortress was the border between Star Valley's inner region and outer region. Even the weakest monster here was a Level 105 Lord, while the strongest was a Level 110 Mythic Boss. The Starlight Fortress was so dangerous that even the various major powers' main forces wouldn't dare approach it casually.
Yet, these players were actually fighting a short distance away from the Starlight Fortress's main entrance. It was truly surprising.
He had the Silver Lion Legion on his side, which had a total of 8,000 players, yet these players only numbered 500. Moreover, these players were independent players that didn't wear any Guild Emblems …
"This adventurer team is quite strong! It's only a 500-man team, yet it has over 30 Tier 3 players. Moreover, the weakest among them is Level 105. Even the main forces of peak first-rate Guilds aren't as strong. "Crimson Witch was a little surprised when she saw the players fighting.
While Shifeng's group discovered the adventurer team, the adventurer team's members also discovered Shifeng's group.
"Boss, so many people are coming down. What should we do?" A Level 106, Tier 3 Ranger asked a robust man, who was currently fending off a Level 110 Grand Lord ranked Archaic Species.
Although this robust man wore leather armor and wielded gauntlets, a strange layer of energy enveloped his body, preventing the Grand Lord's attacks from inflicting any direct damage. In fact, when the Grand Lord's attacks landed on the robust man, it felt as if they had struck an impenetrable wall. The robust man only lost around -30,000 HP. To a Tier 3 player, this amount of damage was negligible. The Ranger was even stronger than Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights.
"This quest's Boss is already in the red HP range. Let's ignore them for now. If they try to snatch it from us, we'll just make sure none of us get away scot-free!" the robust man said as he glanced at the Silver Lion Legion on the hill.
"That's right. Although they outnumber us, I've already sensed their Mana. They only have 70 or so Tier 3 players, which isn't much more than ours. We can't guarantee the outcome of a head-on clash!" a sword-wielding, indifferent man in dark-gray leather armor said, nodding in agreement.
Any other adventurer team would've most likely fled if they encountered so many players, but Silver Lion Legion was different. Even if there were several hundred Tier 3 experts, they wouldn't hesitate to fight, much less an army of 8,000.
Meanwhile, Shifeng's group quietly observed the adventurer team.
"President Hei Yan, should we have them leave?" Macafre asked Xiang Shifeng.
They had come here to capture a fortress. If outsiders were present, even if these people were only a relatively strong adventurer team, they might affect the outcome of the raid.
Since Shifeng was the commander, he had to ask for Shifeng's opinion.
"That won't be necessary. We'll just mind our own business," Shifeng said, shaking his head. He had no intention of cleaning up the scene.
"President Hei Yan, if we don't have them leave, we won't be able to attack from the front gate," Macafre said, exasperated.
The Starlight Fortress only had one gate, and it was also the weakest point of the fortress's defenses. The rest of the fortress was protected by 12-meter-tall walls. Moreover, the walls had been reinforced with special magic, making them impossible to climb over. Many Level 110 Great Lords and Grand Lords also patrolled the walls.
These Elemental Guardians were capable of ranged attacks, and some could even cast large-scale AOE Spells. Before they could destroy the walls, these Elemental Guardians would blast them to smithereens.
However, before Macafre could finish speaking, Shifeng retrieved a steel behemoth from his Epic Spatial Bag.
