The five-story-tall Teleportation Hall stood in a plaza the size of three sports stadiums. As if it were the center of heaven and earth, an endless amount of Mana gathered around the Teleportation Hall.
Previously, the Teleportation Hall's magic array had been suppressed. Now that it was no longer restricted by a magic barrier, Silverwing City's Mana instantly surged and drifted toward the Teleportation Hall.
This commotion stupefied every player on the main street.
"Why does Silverwing City have a Teleportation Hall?"
"Crap! We've screwed! We've screwed this time! I never thought that Ling Yi would have such a trick up his sleeve! "
"Amazing! This is too amazing! So, this is Ling Yi's true trump card? "
"This won't do! I'm going to rent those Shops in Silverwing City right now! No matter how much it costs, I'm going to rent them!"
…
Many players, who had intended to leave Silverwing City and develop elsewhere, panicked. Some of the players with quick reflexes even dashed toward Silverwing City's City Lord's Mansion.
"Quick!"
"Notify the commander! We can't let the commander rent a house in another Guild City! "
"We've been tricked by Ling Yi!"
The various adventurer teams' members frantically contacted their commanders, afraid that their leaders would ruin their lifelong happiness if they were a step too slow.
The various major powers' members, who had been taking pleasure in Silverwing City's Teleportation Hall, could not believe their eyes.
A Teleportation Hall!
Every player in God's Domain was extremely familiar with a Teleportation Hall. Hence, every player knew just how frightening a Guild City would be if it had a Teleportation Hall.
Compared to the high-end buildings in Guild Cities, which had powerful Tier 4 NPCs protecting them, a Teleportation Hall would be much, much more powerful.
After all, as long as a Guild Town had a Teleportation Hall, it would be connected to countless NPC cities in God's Domain. This effect would have a massive impact on a Guild City. It would be akin to a Stone Age human instantly transforming into a modern human. The Teleportation Hall would elevate a Guild City's status by several levels.
As for the various superpowers, they were dumbfounded when they received news of the Teleportation Hall's Teleportation Hall.
They had never thought that Ling Yi would have such a trump card up his sleeve.
Meanwhile, Ling Yi's members in Silverwing City were similarly surprised and ecstatic.
"The Guild Leader is too amazing! I'm afraid the various superpowers will be stupefied by this! "
"With the Teleportation Hall, Silverwing City will definitely become the center of the several neighboring kingdoms. It might even become the center of the Black Dragon Empire. At that time, no matter how powerful the various superpowers are, they won't be able to stop an endless stream of players from coming to Silverwing City. At that time, Silverwing City will definitely become the number one city in the neighboring kingdoms!"
Originally, everyone had expected a bloody battle with the various superpowers. They hadn't expected Shifeng to give them such a pleasant surprise.
Silverwing City was located in a distant neutral map. Adventurer teams and independent players that had to travel to and fro could teleport to a neutral map instantly.
Even if the teleportation fee was low, to many expert players, this little bit of teleportation fee was nothing compared to the travel and leveling.
One could easily imagine how players from the neighboring kingdoms and empires would flock to Silverwing City. At that time, Silverwing City's player population might break through the 10-million-mark mark. It might even reach 20-million-mark.
With this, the various superpowers' attempts to suppress Ling Yi's finances would become a joke.
The only problem Zero Wing faced right now was the various superpowers' covert operations. However, as long as Zero Wing had Silverwing City, it wouldn't have to worry about its finances. In the future, all Zero Wing had to do was keep a low profile and travel to distant neutral maps to grind.
"Guild Leader, just a moment ago, more than 2,000 players came to the City Lord's Mansion to rent Shops. At this rate, it won't take more than half a day to rent out all of Silverwing City's Shops," Liang Jing said excitedly as she looked at the statistics she had just received.
Now, the NPC merchants that had previously withdrawn their Shops no longer had to worry about not having enough players to rent them. In fact, the number of players coming to rent Shops outnumbered the NPC merchants by several times.
Silverwing City's income alone was already higher than that of the previous three Guild Cities combined.
"Mhm. However, we'll have to make some changes to the Shops' rental fees. Aside from Coins, you'll also have to pay additional Magic Crystals if you wish to rent a Shop in the city's center. You'll have to pay 1,000 Magic Crystals per week and 300 Magic Crystals per week in the outer regions." Shifeng nodded. He wasn't surprised at all. "Have the Guild members head to Sky Spring City as well."
In the past, any Guild that had been recognized by the War God's Temple would have to destroy a Guild Town to seal off its finances. Otherwise, it would have been impossible.
This was also why the various superpowers had fought like madmen for a seat in the War God's Temple. They had even fought tooth and nail over a single foreign aid slot.
The fact that Ling Yi had been recognized by the War God's Temple as soon as the system's first major update was the greatest fortune of all. After all, the moment Ling Yi became an official Guild, he was no longer in the same world as the various superpowers.
Ling Yi's current strength and foundation might not be a match for those superpowers', but in terms of quality, the difference was like night and day.
Now, there was only one thing Ling Yi needed to do.
That was to seal off the Secret Covenant Tower before the NPC forces launched their invasion. He needed to quickly increase his Guild's strength and watch as the various superpowers in God's Domain fell. Afterward, he would reap their territories.
Now, he was in a race against time.
As for fighting with the various superpowers, it was simply a waste of time. After all, only one or two superpowers out of ten would survive this great purge. Not to mention, the system's first major update had arrived so early. The outcome would most likely be even more severe.
Liang Jing said excitedly, "I'll have them head to Sky Spring City right away, then."
Following which, Ling Yi, Unyielding Soul, and Crimson Emperor's members began to teleport to Sky Spring City one after another. Instantly, the originally desolate Sky Spring City was filled with players.
This scene astonished the original players of Sky Spring City.
Afterward, every player in Sky Spring City received an announcement from Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor, stating that the two Guilds would completely seal off Sky Spring City, forbidding any player from entering or leaving the city. Anyone who did not belong to one of the three Guilds would be killed if they stepped out of the city.
For a time, Sky Spring City's players were in an uproar.
Although Sky Spring City's various major powers did not understand why Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor would do such a thing, sealing off an NPC city with the two Guilds' strength was a piece of cake.
Immediately, Sky Spring City's various powers began to flee the city, heading to other NPC cities to develop. As a result, Sky Spring City had become a hub for the three Guilds.
Meanwhile, above Sky Spring City, a gigantic, gloomy eagle circled the city.
Seated on the Thunder Eagle's back, Unyielding Heart pointed at the dozen or so Flying Mounts patrolling a short distance away. Very pleased with himself, he said, "Brother Hei Yan, Sky Spring City has been completely sealed off. Our two Guilds' Flying Squadrons are also patrolling the city. I'm afraid even a bird would have a hard time flying out of the city."
"It is indeed amazing. With this, even if players want to fly out, they won't be able to do so." Shifeng could not help but admire Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor's Flying Mounts when he saw them.
He had to admit that Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor were indeed super-first-rate Guilds. Even in an era where Flying Mounts were so scarce, Unyielding Soul and Crimson Emperor had managed to obtain so many Flying Mounts. Moreover, based on the quality of these Flying Mounts, the weakest among them was Advanced Common rank, while two or three of them were Basic Extraordinary rank.
If players did not possess Advanced Extraordinary rank Flying Mounts, they would most likely be no match for these Flying Mounts.
Illusory Words, who stood beside Unyielding Heart, shook her head. She was not particularly optimistic about this situation.
"Now that Ling Yi has caught the attention of the various superpowers, I'm afraid they'll keep a close eye on us as well. If we openly enter the Secret Covenant Tower, news of our arrival will spread very quickly. The various superpowers will definitely try to find out more about us. We won't be able to keep this a secret for very long.
"If the various superpowers find out about the existence of a Tier 3 Legacy, every superpower on the eastern continent will do everything in their power to compete for it. During this time, the advantages we can obtain inside the Secret Covenant Tower will most likely be very limited."
A tall tree attracts the wind. Normally, their actions would be very conspicuous. Now, however, they had even become the focus of the various superpowers. There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. This was especially true for a colossus like Unyielding Soul. No matter how hard they tried to keep this secret, it would eventually leak out.
Unless they told their Guild members about this secret and prevented their Guild members from entering the Secret Covenant Tower, however, this was simply impossible.
"Indeed."
Shi Feng nodded in agreement with Illusory Words's words.
In reality, he was much more aware than Illusory Words and Shi Feng just how great of an impact the Secret Covenant Tower would have on the continent of God's Domain. Many superpowers had even fallen because of this.
"But we've already started taking action. We can't possibly not enter the Secret Covenant Tower and waste our time here." Unyielding Heart also understood that so long as they allowed their Guild members to enter the Secret Covenant Tower, the tower's secret would be exposed instantly. In fact, even the fact that they allowed a small number of their Guild's trusted members to enter the tower's 30th floor and below would be exposed.
At that time, the various superpowers would definitely be curious as to why they were doing this. It wouldn't be difficult for them to find out the reason. After all, they were talking about several hundred people.
"No!" Shifeng shook his head. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "It's not like we don't have a way to take complete control of the Secret Covenant Tower."
"What method?" Unyielding Heart asked curiously as he looked at Shi Feng.
In his opinion, once their secret was exposed, it would be impossible for them to protect the Secret Covenant Tower. The only thing they could do now was obtain some complete Tier 3 Legacies in advance.
Illusory Words, who stood beside Unyielding Heart, also turned to look at Xiang Shifeng with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
"You'll understand once you take a look at this." Shifeng then sent a document to the two of them. He then reminded, "You must keep this a secret. Do not let anyone else know about this. Otherwise, the Secret Covenant Tower will no longer belong to you. On the contrary, if this matter succeeds, your two Guilds will each own 25% of the Secret Covenant Tower's shares."
"What is this thing? It's actually so amazing?" Unyielding Heart felt that Shifeng's words were a little exaggerated. It was as if the Secret Covenant Tower was already theirs.
"Are you talking about the information on the Tier 4 Promotion Quest?" Illusory Words teased.
Shaking his head, Shifeng said, "You'll understand once you take a look."
Following which, Unyielding Heart and Illusory Words stopped talking and immediately opened the message Shifeng sent them.
Immediately, the two of them were stunned, their mouths hanging open in shock. Their eyes were filled with disbelief, and their hearts were filled with shock.
Looking at Xiang Shifeng, Unyielding Heart asked in a trembling voice, "Is this real?"
At this moment, the information Shifeng had shown them had simply exceeded his imagination. Even the so-called information on the Tier 4 Promotion Quest was as insignificant as dust in front of this information.
This was because the information Shifeng had shown them was none other than something that could completely rewrite the structure of God's Domain.
