Faced with the three Starmoon Kingdom's Heirlooms, Shifeng hesitated.
Any one of the three Heirlooms could help a kingdom rise to prominence and a Guild rise to the apex of God's Domain. Moreover, all three Heirlooms had their own advantages.
"Can I really only exchange for one?" Shifeng could not help but ask the old man.
"Only one," the old man said with certainty. "Of course, there are other ways. If you can promote the Starmoon Kingdom into an empire, you can exchange for all three Heirlooms."
"Promote into an empire?" Shifeng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
There were indeed several ways to promote a kingdom into an empire. However, none of these methods were easy to accomplish. Every method required a long time.
Thinking up to this point, Shifeng suddenly had an idea. Looking at the old man, he asked, "May I know if I qualify to exchange for the Heirlooms?"
Heirlooms were divided into kingdom and empire Heirlooms.
In the past, whenever players had obtained a kingdom or empire Heirlooms, they had tried to search for them themselves. This was because these Heirlooms were treasures left behind by fallen kingdoms and empires in God's Domain's history. As long as one could obtain these treasures, they could rebuild a kingdom or even an empire.
However, searching for lost kingdoms and empires in God's Domain was not an easy task. The difficulty of searching for lost kingdoms and empires could rival that of a Legendary Quest.
Take the empire Heirlooms that Shi Feng had obtained long ago. He had sent many members of his Guild to investigate, but even now, he had failed to find any clues. He had no idea where this lost ancient empire had once been. Furthermore, less than 20% of God's Domain's maps had been explored.
That's right. Even now, God's Domain's players had explored less than 15% of God's Domain's maps.
On the main continent of God's Domain, human kingdoms and empires only occupied a small portion of the continent. The majority of the continent's maps were Level 150-plus neutral maps. Over 40% of God's Domain's maps could only be explored by Level 180-plus, Tier 3 players.
Not to mention, there was also the vast sea. There were many islands in the sea, and some of these islands were as large as an empire. Hence, it was extremely difficult to find a fallen empire that had long since disappeared from God's Domain's history.
In God's Domain, one of the Ten Great Rookie Guilds had spent a large sum of money to purchase an imperial heirloom from an auction. They then traded this imperial heirloom for a ready-made royal heirloom, greatly increasing the Guild's foundation. At that time, the Guild had become one of the Twelve Great Reserve Guilds of God's Domain.
Although Shifeng did not know how the guild did the trade, it would be a waste if they did not try.
"Exchange?" The old man was also slightly surprised. After thinking for a while, he said, "It's not impossible to exchange, but are you willing to pay such a high price?"
"What price?" Shifeng asked.
"The first price is to find a lost heirloom of the Empire. The second price is to buy it at double the price of the Kingdom's heirloom," the old man said with a smile.
"Double?" Shifeng was astonished by the old man's offer.
A Royal Heirloom wasn't cheap. Aside from the 1,000,000 Gold Coins, only the various superpowers could afford to sell it for 1,000,000 Magic Crystals. If the price of a Royal Heirloom was doubled, even superpowers wouldn't be able to afford it.
"That's right, but most importantly, you need to find an imperial heirloom. Otherwise, we won't be able to afford it," the old man said, nodding.
"Alright, I'll use the imperial heirloom to exchange for the Mysterious-Iron Flying Ship Design. I'll also exchange for the Secret-Silver Combat Puppet!" Shifeng said, gritting his teeth as he retrieved the imperial heirloom from his bag.
Before coming here, he had already brought all of Ling Yi's belongings with him. After deducting the Coins and Magic Crystals needed to rebuild Ancient Rock City, he still had 5,500,000 Gold and 5,300,000 Magic Crystals remaining. This was the limit of what Ling Yi could afford right now. After all, rebuilding Ancient Rock City's various defenses and recruiting NPC soldiers was simply too expensive. Even though Ling Yi City and Ancient Rock City's income was extremely high right now, they still had enough to cover these expenses.
The old man was slightly surprised when he saw the imperial heirloom in Shifeng's hand. "You actually have one?!"
"Of course! Hurry up and exchange!" Shifeng nodded.
"Alright. That'll be 5,000,000 Gold Coins and 3,000,000 Magic Crystals," the old man said, smiling as he extended his hand.
"You can count them."
Shifeng transferred the Coins and Magic Crystals from his bag space to the old man's bag space. After the old man confirmed that the numbers were correct, he waved his hand, and two ancient designs appeared before Shifeng.
Shifeng grew excited as he looked at the two designs.
Although buying these two designs would make him a pauper, the value of these two designs was immeasurable.
Now, all he needed to do was find a way to gather the necessary materials and start mass-producing them.
These materials really aren't simple. Even the common materials needed to produce these two items are rare in God's Domain. Moreover, both items require a lot of Titan Ore and Magic Elven Stones. Shifeng frowned when he saw the required materials for the two designs.
In God's Domain, Titan Fine Gold was a super-rare, second-tier ore vein. Only second-tier ore veins could be mined in large quantities. Titan Fine Gold was considered a super-rare ore in God's Domain, and each piece was worth over a dozen Gold.
As for the Magic Elven Stones, he had had a headache when producing the Crimson Dragon Flying Ship.
Yet, to produce a Mysterious-Iron ranked Blue Thunder Flying Ship, just the Titan Gold Ore and Magic Elven Stones would cost 5,000 Titan Gold Ore and 600 Magic Elven Stones.
As for the Secret-Silver ranked Flame Beast Puppet, he needed 1,000 Titan Ore and 200 Magic Elven Stones.
One could say that he needed a lot of Magic Elven Stones!
Fortunately, Yan Ya and the others had purchased plenty of Magic Elven Stones when they returned from the ancient God's Domain. Currently, Ling Yi had over 4,000 Magic Elven Stones in his warehouse, which was barely enough.
The only problem was the Titan Ore. Ling Yi only had a little over 30,000 Titan Ore in his warehouse, and he had only obtained so much because he normally produced weapons and equipment.
Shortly after Shifeng finished studying the two designs, Fang Shihan contacted him.
"Guild Leader, the Guild Leaders and representatives of the various major powers in the Starmoon Kingdom and Twin Towers Kingdom have arrived. However, not many Guilds from the neighboring kingdoms have come," Fang Shihan said helplessly. "The two superpowers didn't send a single representative. Of the eight first-rate Guilds, only three have come. As for the second-rate Guilds, less than 20 have come …"
The number of Guilds from the neighboring kingdoms paled in comparison to the Starmoon Kingdom's. Not to mention, not a single superpower had come.
"Are they all waiting for a good price?" Shifeng chuckled.
He could understand why the various superpowers hadn't come. After all, the various superpowers' territories were very large, and they mainly focused on defending empires. However, the first-rate and second-rate Guilds, which didn't have to worry about war, felt that this was a good opportunity to make a fortune.
If one wanted to make these Guilds work, they had to pay a sufficient price.
Of course, this was understandable. Hence, Zero Wing had decided to pay a price for killing Tier 3 and above NPCs. Players would be rewarded with GCPs, and these GCPs could be used to offset the entrance fee and a portion of the accommodation fee in Zero Wing's Guild Cities. Including the rewards offered by the Twin Towers Kingdom, Zero Wing's Guild Cities offered a generous reward.
The other superpowers had similarly offered similar rewards. Only, the reward points for killing NPCs differed slightly.
Fang Shihan smiled bitterly and said, "The several first-rate Guilds that didn't come have such intentions. If we want them to help us, we'll need to permanently purchase a Guild Residence and private house in Ling Yi City or Ancient Rock City. They said that the other superpowers have already promised them this. If Ling Yi is willing, they'll choose to help us."
Previously, Shifeng's annihilation of the Outerworld's player army had indeed caused a huge commotion in God's Domain. The superpowers that originally intended to target Ling Yi had stopped, and many of the two kingdoms' independent experts had returned. Most importantly, the number of people wanting to join the Ling Yi Society had skyrocketed.
However, this wasn't enough to convince the superpowers that didn't have to worry about war to help Ling Yi. After all, NPCs were still NPCs. These superpowers were certain that Shifeng couldn't affect the NPC army by himself. Moreover, the NPC army had a large number of Tier 5 NPCs. Moreover, the battlefield spanned the entire kingdom's borders. There were various defensive battles and field battles, and these battles required a large number of players to whittle down the Outerworld's NPCs.
Moreover, the gap between the Starmoon Kingdom's NPC army and the Twin Towers Kingdom's NPC army was massive. Due to Mythology and Solar Temple's interference, the neighboring kingdoms that weren't at war hadn't sent any reinforcements. On the contrary, they had sent their forces to help the other kingdoms and empires.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the Twin Towers Kingdom and Starmoon Kingdom only had two kingdoms' armies to contend with the Outerworld's NPC army. Even if the Outerworld's NPC army didn't have a player army, the Twin Towers Kingdom and Starmoon Kingdom would still suffer.
In addition, the various superpowers were envious of Ling Yi's various resources. Now that these Guilds had a chance to obtain these resources, they naturally wouldn't let it go.
"Good! Very good!" Shifeng smiled faintly when he heard Fang Shihan's words. "Tell those first-rate Guilds that they don't care if they come or not. It's best if they don't come in the future!"
"This …" For a moment, Fang Shihan was at a loss for words.
Of course, she could say that. However, doing so would be tantamount to falling out with those first-rate Guilds. Meanwhile, the War of Worlds wasn't something that could be resolved overnight. After all, both sides would continue to grow stronger. At the same time, the War of Worlds would also continue to increase its forces. One could say that it was a war of attrition between the two worlds.
If she rejected these large Guilds, it would be extremely difficult to find reinforcements in the future. After all, wars were breaking out all over the eastern continent.
It was precisely because of this that the various superpowers tolerated these first-rate and second-rate Guilds' exorbitant demands. Otherwise, they would've dealt with these large Guilds long ago.
Shifeng naturally understood this situation. He then waved the two designs in his hand and smiled as he said, "Take a look at these."
