Hearing Shifeng's words, Schneider's eyes immediately glowed. He was clearly tempted.
The Starstreak Trading Firm had only offered him 1,000 Gold for exterminating the Black Scorpion Corps. However, the Black Scorpion Corps' commander was a Tier 3 expert. Defeating him would not be easy. Not to mention, he had a large number of subordinates.
Yet, stealing a contract from the Starstreak Trading Firm's President was a piece of cake. Moreover, the remuneration he received was six times that of the Starstreak Trading Firm.
"Sure enough, there is room for negotiation."
Seeing Schneider's tempted gaze, Shifeng knew that he had a chance.
As part of an Epic Quest, how could the final reward be just a ticket to the next phase?
Moreover, any Tier 3 NPC was an overlord of a city. They would not appear in a small place like the Starstreak Trading Firm for no reason.
At this moment, President Henry could no longer remain calm. Hurriedly, he said, "Your Excellency Ye Feng must be joking. Since Your Excellency Ye Feng is so sincere, I believe that Anna will have a better development under Your Excellency."
After agreeing to Shi Feng's request, President Henry immediately took out Anna's contract.
Shifeng also took out 36,000 Gold without hesitation. One could say that this was all of Shifeng's assets.
If not for the fact that he had earned quite a bit from Candlelight and the Guild Residence, he would not have been able to take out so many Gold Coins. Right now, he was a pauper once more.
However, Shifeng did not mind at all.
Gold Coins were meant to be spent. Otherwise, as players reached higher levels, Gold Coins would depreciate. Moreover, he had only spent 6,000 Gold to purchase Anna, who was suspected to be a Fine-Gold Guard. This was already a great bargain.
In the past, a physical-class Mysterious-Iron Guard sold for over 1,000 Gold. Its price could even rival Epic items of decent quality. If it were a Secret-Silver Guard, the price would be ten times higher, reaching tens of thousands of Gold.
Meanwhile, Secret-Silver ranked magical class Guards were nearly ten times more expensive. In other words, they cost over 100,000 Gold to purchase. Even so, Secret-Silver ranked magical class Guards were still priceless. Anyone who discovered one would use it for themselves. Who would give it to others, not to mention a Fine-Gold Guard?
After Shifeng received Anna's contract, the sound of a system notification reached his ears.
System: You have received 30 Favorability with Anna.
"Your Excellency Ye Feng, this is the Tier 4 Magic Scroll the Guild Leader mentioned," Anna said as she took out a tattered scroll that radiated a purple glow.
Although the scroll looked rather old. However, the demonic energy contained within it was enough to make even the Third Order Battle King Schneider's heart palpitate.
Not to mention a Tier 1 Shifeng.
A Tier 4 Magic Scroll contained the power of a Tier 4 class's full-powered attack. It could easily heavily injure a Tier 4 class and deal a certain amount of damage to a Tier 5 class. Not to mention Tier 3 players and ant-like Tier 1 players.
"Magic Scrolls that have survived since ancient times really are extraordinary. They can practically rival an Epic item."
After the Shifeng received the Tier 4 Magic Scroll, he carefully inspected it. He immediately discovered how frightening this Tier 4 Magic Scroll was.
Shifeng had seen plenty of Tier 3 Magic Scrolls and had used plenty of them. However, this was his first time seeing a Tier 4 Magic Scroll.
Generally speaking, Magic Scrolls were consumable items. Once used, they would become scrap. However, this Magic Scroll that had been passed down since ancient times could be used multiple times.
However, there was also a maximum usage limit and usage conditions.
[Space Movement Scroll] (Tier 4 Magic Scroll) Allows player to move to any location they wish (Cannot teleport to certain special spaces). Can be used up to ten times. Requires five Mana Stones to recover Mana after each use. Cooldown: 3 days. (Current usage count: 0/10)
Ten uses was the equivalent of ten Tier 4 Space Movement Scrolls. This was much more valuable than an ordinary Epic item.
"With this scroll, I can go to places that I can't set foot in at my current level." Shifeng stored the Space Movement Scroll in satisfaction, inwardly, he was overjoyed.
As a reincarnator, he knew many of God's Domain's secrets. Only, due to his current level, he could not go to those places.
However, with this Space Movement Scroll, he could visit secret areas filled with treasures at will.
God's Domain was very large. The higher the level of a map, the fewer teleportation arrays there would be. As for areas filled with opportunities and treasures, there would be no teleportation arrays at all. Players would have to travel there by themselves.
For example, secret areas were hidden maps of God's Domain. They would not appear on the system map. Players would have to explore them on their own.
However, every secret area was a massive treasure trove. It was the equivalent of a large Field Dungeon.
A secret area could allow a Guild to rapidly grow stronger. Hence, there had been many battles over secret areas in Shi Feng's previous life. Many small Guilds had also risen to prominence because of these battles.
However, traveling to a secret area was not easy as one would encounter many dangers along the way. Even an elite team might get annihilated, let alone ordinary players. Only after reaching a high level would one venture to a low-level treasure trove.
However, the Space Movement Scroll could save players from this trouble. It could teleport them directly to their destination. Although the destination was also quite dangerous, it was much less dangerous than the journey.
Shifeng knew of many secret areas. Only, with his current level and strength, he could not explore them. However, with this scroll, he could easily explore them.
After completing his quest, Shifeng did not rush to complete the final phase of the Epic Quest, Darkness Descends. Instead, he brought Anna to the Adventurer's Association.
If players wished to recruit NPCs as their guards, the first condition was for the NPC to have an Adventurer class, even if the NPC only had a Tier 0 class.
However, many NPCs in God's Domain were ordinary civilians. They did not have an Adventurer class. If players wished to recruit an NPC as their guard, they needed to register at the Adventurer's Association. At the same time, they needed to select a class and train the NPC to become an Adventurer.
At this time, Shifeng arrived at the Adventurer's Association's main hall. Even though it was daytime, there were still many players in the hall. At a glance, there were several hundred players.
Of course, these players had not come to the Adventurer's Association for no reason.
They were all here for the sake of NPC guards.
Due to the Ling YI Society's sudden rise to fame, many players saw an unprecedented bright future. If they were not strong enough, they could nurture their own guards to improve their strength.
If a player wished to recruit a guard, the first condition was to become a Baron in a city. That way, they would have a quota of guards, and they could recruit their own personal guards.
However, players needed a lot of time to become a Baron in a city. Many players could not afford to wait that long. Hence, they would try to establish a closer relationship with NPCs they favored. That way, once they had sufficient Reputation, they could recruit these NPCs as their guards.
In God's Domain, the higher the tier of an NPC, the more difficult it was to establish a close relationship with them, not to mention recruit them as their guards.
Among these NPCs, the easiest to establish a close relationship with were ordinary civilians.
In the world of God's Domain, it was not easy to become an Adventurer. If one could convince an ordinary civilian to become an Adventurer, they would develop a closer relationship with the player. Meanwhile, players had the quota to turn ordinary civilians into Adventurers. Only, whether an NPC could become an Adventurer or not depended on the NPC's Potential and Attributes.
In addition, players had a limited number of quotas. After using one, it would take a week for another to respawn.
Hence, choosing an ordinary NPC was a test of a player's eyesight.
If one was unlucky, they would have to look for other NPCs. If one was lucky, they could nurture and establish a closer relationship with the NPC.
"There sure are a lot of people!" Shifeng could not help but smile bitterly when he saw the long line of over a hundred players.
