Meteorite City, Skyflare Hotel:
As one of the top three powers in Meteorite City, the Skyflare Hotel had become one of the city's landmarks. Not only did the hotel have a total of 19 floors, but it also occupied the largest plot of land on Meteorite City's main street. The hotel was the size of a sports stadium.
Meanwhile, the Skyflare Hotel also had the best resting environment in Meteorite City. Due to its relatively reasonable prices, many players and NPCs would choose to stay in the hotel every day. The hotel's business was so good that it ranked among the top ten in Meteorite City's main street.
At this moment, a Level 131, petite female Assassin in black clothes and fully geared in Epic Equipment walked up to the Skyflare Hotel's top-floor lounge. She then approached a majestic man who currently sat before an office desk and organized some documents.
This majestic, middle-aged man was none other than Skyflare's commander, Lionheart, who was also known as the Flaming Lion.
"Commander, I've already investigated the person you mentioned. It's Yu Luo, a Cleric from the Knight Legion.
"All the information came from her. Not long ago, she released another piece of news, saying that she was going to hold a small auction at the auction house. She didn't intend to sell it at the auction house. Instead, she planned to sell five Crystals of Souls and fifty drops of Soul Water, which were slightly weaker." The female Assassin then took out a Memory Crystal and handed it to Lionheart. "Her image is recorded in this Memory Crystal. In addition, she should only be acting on someone else's request. The real seller should be the five people who entered Meteorite City with the Knight Legion. Their images are recorded in this Memory Crystal as well. Among them, the cloaked man leading the group is confirmed to be a Tier 4 Sword Emperor. However, I couldn't find any information about him in the nearby Main Cities."
"Well done." Lionheart, who had already reached Level 133, wore blood-red light armor. He nodded slightly as he looked at the images recorded in the Memory Crystal. He then turned to the several vice commanders seated in the hall and asked calmly, "What do you all think of this matter?"
"They're clearly trying to make an enemy of Skyflare! Our offer is already quite high. We're already giving face to that Tier 4 Sword Emperor, yet they're not giving us any face at all! " A gloomy man standing beside a floor-to-ceiling window said icily. "I think we need to teach these outsiders a lesson. If they want to survive in Meteorite City, they need to know their limits! Moreover, the treasure that increases the success rate of the Tier 4 Promotion Quest cannot fall into the hands of the other powers in the city! "
The other three vice-captains also nodded slightly, agreeing with the gloomy man's words.
Although Wind Chaser was a cold and emotionless person, he was extremely loyal to the Skyflare adventurer team and its commander. Most importantly, Wind Chaser had already been promoted to Tier 4, the Dark Walker. When it came to assassination, he was definitely the number one player in Meteorite City. Meanwhile, Skyflare already ranked number one in Meteorite City in terms of peak combat power.
This was a golden opportunity for the Skyflare adventurer team to take complete control of Meteorite City. How could they possibly allow another power to rise to prominence?
Now that these outsiders didn't give them any face, they had to teach them a lesson.
After all, not only was Wind Chaser a Peak hidden class, but he had also obtained the Legacy of a special Mana Technique. When he hid in the shadows, he could even one-shot Tier 4 defensive classes, not to mention a Tier 4 Sword Emperor.
"How about this? Let's go and have a chat with him first. If both sides agree on the price, we'll be happy. If we can't come to an agreement, it won't be too late for us to break off our relationship," Lionheart said after giving the matter some thought.
Lionheart agreed with Wind Chaser's idea.
The Crystal of Souls, in particular, could actually strengthen a player's soul slightly. The strength of a player's soul was a great help to learning new things. Even if the Crystal of Souls could only strengthen a player's soul slightly, it would still be of great help to them when they challenged their Tier 4 Promotion Quest and learned Tier 4 Skills and Spells.
The Skyflare adventurer team had to keep the Crystal of Souls in its own hands. They absolutely couldn't allow any other power in the city to obtain it.
Upon hearing Lionheart's words, the four vice-captains nodded in agreement.
"Crimson Billow, immediately investigate the whereabouts of that Sword Emperor. I need to know immediately," Lionheart said as he turned to the female Assassin.
"Commander, don't you know how I do things?" The petite female Assassin said, smiling proudly. "When you said you wanted to investigate this matter, I had already set my sights on that Sword Emperor. Hence, I've long since sent someone to keep an eye on his every move. That Sword Emperor has already arrived at the Auction House. By the looks of it, he intends to rent an Auction Hall and hold a small auction."
"Good!" Lionheart said in satisfaction as he looked at Crimson Billow. "Crimson, you and Wind will secretly follow that Sword Emperor. Afterward, I'll personally meet that Sword Emperor and find out his background. I can't even find any information about him."
In reality, Lionheart was also very curious about this Tier 4 Sword Emperor.
After all, Tier 4 players were extremely rare in God's Domain. According to the information the Skyflare adventurer team had, a large number of Main Cities didn't even have two Tier 4 players. The majority of Main Cities only had one Tier 4 player. Those that had two or three Tier 4 players were all cities with large populations.
Now that Sword Emperor had become a Tier 4 player, instead of focusing on managing his city and expanding his city's influence, he had actually come to another city. This was simply inconceivable.
"Understood!" Crimson Billow and Wind Chaser replied respectfully.
Meteorite City, Auction House:
As a major trade city, Meteorite City's Auction House was the most prosperous place in the city. Not only was the Auction House much larger than the Auction Houses in the capital cities, but there were also many buyers and sellers. Even the Magic Ore, which was a rare commodity on the continent of God's Domain, was sold in stacks. Moreover, the Auction House sold stacks of Magic Ore for cheap.
A stack of 200 Magic Ore only cost 49 Magic Crystals!
If this were in the outside world, people would most likely go crazy over the Magic Ore. After all, Magic Ore was an associated ore, and the chances of it appearing in God's Domain weren't very high. On the continent of God's Domain, one Magic Ore could easily sell for 30 Silver Coins. Moreover, Magic Ore was extremely rare.
It's a pity that I can't travel between the two worlds as I please. Otherwise, I'd definitely make a killing. Ling Yi wouldn't lack resources and funds in the future. Shifeng inwardly sighed as he looked at the items in the Auction House.
According to the old man, only ten people could enter the Auction House at a time. Those who entered the Auction House for the first time didn't have to pay a price. In fact, the Auction House was completely free. However, those who wished to enter the Auction House for the second time would have to pay a price.
It wouldn't be a problem if the price was lower. However, if the price was too high, the number of times he could enter the Auction House would most likely be very limited.
Although it wasn't that he couldn't leave this matter to others, the implications of the ancient God's Domain were simply too great. If he accidentally leaked this information, the various superpowers on the continent of God's Domain would most likely stop him from doing anything. Unless they annihilated Ling Yi or took control of this resource, there would be no third option.
Following which, Shifeng spent 500 Magic Crystals to rent a small Auction House that could seat up to 200 people. This number was more than enough for the various major powers of Meteorite City.
Meanwhile, after Shifeng finished arranging the Auction House and was about to quietly wait for the various major powers of Meteorite City to arrive, a robust man wearing blood-red light armor and carrying a blood-patterned knight's shield on his back entered the Auction House.
Following this man's appearance, the entire Auction Hall fell silent as everyone stared at him in shock. Both players and NPCs were filled with reverence and respect for this man.
"Crap! The Blazing Lion! It's actually the real person! "
"Isn't he too handsome?! He's much more handsome than Skyflare's posters! But why would such a big shot like him come here? "
"Could it be because of the news about the small Auction House from before?"
Everyone could not help but discuss Lionheart's appearance. They were all very curious as to why such a big shot would make an appearance here.
"The commander of the Skyflare adventurer team! He actually came here personally? "
Even Yu Luo, who had just arrived, gaped in shock when she saw Lionheart enter the Auction House. She couldn't believe her eyes.
She wasn't making a fuss over nothing. Rather, Lionheart was truly amazing. In such a cruel world, he had started from scratch, defeated multiple large Guilds, and become one of the top three powers in Meteorite City. His achievements had far surpassed Heaven's Blade's.
In the Interstellar Continent, living resources were extremely scarce. Ordinary civilians couldn't compare to the large Guilds that controlled all kinds of resources. This was because these large Guilds had the backing of powerful figures. The resources and privileges they possessed were simply not something the large Guilds on Earth could compare to.
With a single word from these powerful figures, a player could immediately move from the civilian area, where they could barely fill their stomachs, to the core area. Not only would they be able to eat and drink well, but they would also be able to move freely in the real world and enjoy the vast Space Wonders.
Just this point alone could easily defeat ordinary civilian players without any background.
Lionheart was only an ordinary civilian. The fact that he had reached this point was already very impressive. He was practically a hero among civilians. If he were placed in the main continent of God's Domain, he would definitely become a powerful existence.
In the next moment, this big shot of Meteorite City walked up to Shifeng. For a time, everyone in the Auction House couldn't help but be curious about this cloaked player. For a moment, Shifeng felt very uncomfortable.
"You're the person who sold the Crystal of Souls, right?" Lionheart asked as he looked at Shifeng. He then said, "I am Lionheart, the commander of the Skyflare adventurer team. I believe you should have heard of me before."
"Of course. I've heard of you before." Shifeng did not deny Lionheart's words. Calmly, he asked, "May I know what business you have with me?"
Shi Feng had already learned about Lionheart through Yu Luo. Lionheart was an absolute overlord with frightening strength. Not only had he grasped a Domain, but he had also reached the second step of the Domain Realm. He was also deeply immersed in the game. Players on the main continent of God's Domain simply couldn't compare to him. In fact, according to Yu Luo's information, Lionheart's Mana control had already reached the Advanced Master standard. He was only a step away from becoming a Grandmaster.
In addition, Lionheart possessed the unique Ancient Legacy Class, the Magic Blood Knight. He was definitely the existence with the strongest Defense among players. He was practically a monster.
It was precisely because of this frightening Defense that the Skyflare adventurer team had been able to raid so many powerful Bosses. The adventurer team had even killed quite a few Level 120 Superior Mythic Bosses. This was why Meteorite City's players had nicknamed the Iron Wall of Meteorite City.
"This isn't a good place to talk. Why don't we find a place to sit down and talk?" Lionheart asked as he examined Shifeng. He was also surprised and confused by Shifeng's special status. However, he quickly set aside his surprise and replaced it with basic respect for an unfamiliar Tier 4 expert.
"Sure." Shifeng nodded. He then looked at an empty spot a short distance behind Lionheart and asked softly, "Are those two coming as well?"
