"Now that I have 21 Mana Stones, I only need the help of three Tier 4 NPCs." Shifeng stored the 21 Mana Stones and the Philosopher's Stone on the table, his mind thinking about where to find these NPCs.
There were only three Tier 4 powerhouses in the entire White River City, yet all of them were gathered together.
Even if Shifeng were ten times stronger than before and had become a Count of White River City, he would not have enough face to invite three Tier 4 NPCs to help him.
"I can only take a look at Star-Moon City." After giving it some thought, Shifeng concluded that Star-Moon City had the highest chance of success. There were also the highest number of high-level NPCs there. It was also the easiest place to find Tier 4 NPCs.
Following which, Shifeng left the Starstreak Trading Firm and ran to the Bank.
Storing the Philosopher's Stone in the Bank's Warehouse was the safest option. If he died in an accident, the Philosopher's Stone in his bag would definitely drop. He did not wish to lose an alchemy artifact.
As Shifeng walked down the central street of White River City, even if he did not want to listen, he could hear many players discussing Overwhelming Smile.
"Say, how is Overwhelming Smile so powerful? They actually obtained the First Clear of a 50-man Team Dungeon so quickly. I've heard that Overwhelming Smile did not have any experts overseeing it before."
"I'm confused as well. Originally, I thought that Ouroboros or Ling Yi would be the first to obtain the First Clear. After all, Ouroboros is led by the Snow Goddess Gentle Snow. Although Gentle Snow has not displayed any shocking performance, and she is not ranked on the God's Domain Experts List, her previous frightening battle records are there for all to see. Her strength should not be any weaker than Hei Yan's. Yet, now, she has lost to a second-rate Guild, Overwhelming Smile. Overwhelming Smile is really not simple."
"That's right. That is a 50-man Team Dungeon. I've heard that the equipment dropped in Hard Mode is superb. They are all Set Equipment with excellent Attributes. Other Dungeons simply cannot compare to them. With this batch of equipment, Overwhelming Smile will have a much easier time raiding Level 20 large-scale Team Dungeons."
"I've heard that Overwhelming Smile is already Maple City's overlord. Moreover, they were recruiting in large numbers. The benefits and treatment of the guild were excellent. The internet even confirmed that someone had invested one billion credits into the guild not long ago. Just thinking about it makes me drool. I've never heard of a Guild receiving so much investment before. I'm even tempted to go to Maple City and join Overwhelming Smile. "
The players resting on both sides of the street were paying close attention to Overwhelming Smile. Previously, Ling Yi had managed to build up her momentum with great difficulty. Yet, Overwhelming Smile had easily dispelled it.
The Shifeng could only smile bitterly.
He could not help but admit that Overwhelming Smile had obtained the First Clear of a large-scale Team Dungeon.
Not only had Overwhelming Smile's fame spread throughout the Starmoon Kingdom, but it had also overshadowed Ling Yi's reputation, causing everyone's attention to shift.
However, there was nothing they could do about it.
Compared to personal strength, players were more concerned about dungeons. After all, dungeons were the main source of equipment for players, especially top-tier equipment.
Just as Shifeng stored the Philosopher's Stone in his personal storage, the system rang with a voice call. The person who requested to speak was none other than Gentle Snow.
"Hello, Miss Snow." Shifeng accepted the call. Gentle Snow greeted.
Although Overwhelming Smile's First Clear of a large-scale Team Dungeon had a certain impact on Ling Yi, the person who was truly infuriated was Gentle Snow. In order to obtain the First Clear, Gentle Snow had paid a heavy price. The advantage she held was also not something other Guilds could compare to. Yet, in the end, Overwhelming Smile had snatched the peach.
"President Hei Yan, I wish to discuss something with you." Gentle Snow's tone was emotionless. No one could tell what she was feeling at this moment.
"Please speak, Miss Snow." Shifeng laughed.
"I wish to borrow someone from you," Gentle Snow said.
"Borrow people?" Shi Feng could not understand what Shi Feng meant. Ouroboros had plenty of experts. They should not be lacking in manpower, right?
"That's right. I wish to borrow Ye Feng." Gentle Snow nodded, affirming. "As for the price, I can offer five million Credits. How about it?"
"Borrow Ye Feng?" Shifeng nearly lost his footing when he heard this. What was Gentle Snow thinking?
Wasn't borrowing Ye Feng the same as borrowing himself?
Since when did he possess such great charm? He was actually valued by the Snow Goddess in players' hearts. An astronomical price of five million Credits?
This was the annual salary of a well-known virtual gaming expert. Yet, Shi Feng only needed to do one thing for her …
Gentle Snow thought too highly of him.
"I know that this is somewhat abrupt. Actually, my first consideration was to ask an expert like you for help. However, you are the Guild Leader of Ling Yi. There are too many implications, and your fame is too great. I can only look for Ye Feng. Ye Feng is only a member of the Ling Yi Society. Without President Hei Yan's permission, I don't think he will help," Gentle Snow explained. If possible, she did not wish to do this. However, the First Clear of a large-scale Team Dungeon had already been snatched away by Overwhelming Smile. She had no other choice.
Shifeng, more or less, understood the situation. Gentle Snow needed an expert. However, they could not be too famous. It would be best if they were a reclusive expert. Hence, she thought of Ye Feng.
"Although I wish to agree to Miss Snow's request, Ye Feng is currently carrying out an extremely important task. I'm afraid that I can't do it right now. Why don't I have other experts from Ling Yi go instead?" Although Shifeng wanted to help Gentle Snow, his Class Change Quest was his top priority.
"Other experts?" After a moment of silence, Gentle Snow said, "If they are as strong as Ye Feng, that's fine too."
"I'm afraid they can't reach that level," Shifeng said with certainty.
What a joke. Setting aside techniques, just weapons, equipment, and Skills, no one else in the Guild could compare to Shi Feng. In terms of combat techniques, Fire Dance, Shiuse Qiangwei, Violet Cloud, and Ke Le might have a chance. It was especially true for Violet Cloud. Her improvement speed was rapid. If not for his ten years of experience in God's Domain, Shi Feng would have long since surpassed him.
"If they can't reach Ye Feng's strength, I'm afraid they won't make it." Gentle Snow was somewhat disappointed. However, after giving it some thought, she found it reasonable. How could great experts like Ye Feng be found everywhere? She then asked, "President Hei Yan, may I know how long it will take Ye Feng to complete his task?"
Shifeng gave the matter some thought. Normally, a Class Change Quest would take two or three days. His Class Change Quest was quite difficult, so it should take at least three to five days.
"Around five days," Shifeng gave a conservative estimate.
"Five days?" Gentle Snow frowned. After pondering for some time, she slowly asked, "President Hei Yan, will five days really be enough?"
"Mhm." Shifeng nodded.
Shifeng could tell that Gentle Snow had made some kind of decision. Moreover, this decision was very important to her.
