The Evil Ghost Domain was very large. It was roughly one-fifth the size of the Starmoon Kingdom. There were also many Shelters in the Evil Ghost Domain. Some of these Shelters were under the control of large Guilds. However, none of them had been promoted to a Large Shelter. One could just imagine how difficult it was to promote a Large Shelter.
As long as a Large Shelter became a Large Shelter, its capacity would immediately increase from 30,000 players to 100,000 players. Not only would the Shelter's Defense increase significantly, but the rate at which players could earn Magic Crystals would also increase severalfold.
However, these were still not the most important benefits.
After becoming a Large Shelter, the number of specialties it could produce would also increase to three. Not only would it have two more specialties than a Medium Shelter, but its production would also increase significantly.
Originally, the 1-star Lion Bar could only produce 20 bottles of Hundred Berry Wine per day. However, after the Shelter was upgraded to a Large Shelter, the bar's production rate had increased by 100%. In other words, the 2-star Lion Bar could purchase 100 bottles of Hundred Berry Wine per day.
The Hundred Berry Wine was a rare tool that could temporarily increase a player's compatibility with their Attributes. It was the best item for nurturing experts. The Hundred Berry Wine was many times more effective than the Trial Tower in the Divine Colosseum.
Otherwise, without the Divine Colosseum, the Dark Den would not be able to compete with players in the outside world.
Half an hour later, the Crystal Sky Pillar in District One's Shelter released a dazzling red glow that shot straight into the sky. The glow then formed a faint-red barrier around the Shelter. For a time, aside from the Shifeng and the others who were promoting their Shelters inside the Crystal Sky Pillar, everyone else was teleported out of the Shelter.
While one new building after another appeared inside the Shelter, the Shelter also continued to expand.
In a short moment, the Shelter had expanded to ten times the size of a Medium Shelter.
At the same time … A system announcement also appeared in the Evil Ghost Domain.
Evil Ghost Domain System Announcement: Congratulations to District One's Shelter for becoming the first Large Shelter in the Evil Ghost Domain. Rewarding 1,000 Shelter Soul Crystals. All District One players will receive a two-day shelter and a 10% increase to all Attributes. Sales of specialties will be increased by 100% for seven days.
This system announcement caused an uproar among the dazed players in District One.
"Our District One is too awesome! We actually got promoted to a Large Shelter! We won't have to worry about Mounts after Level 40!" Everyone was ecstatic.
Currently, everyone was around Level 30. They were not far from Level 40.
But leveling up from a medium shelter to a large shelter wasn't something that could be done in a short amount of time. If you wanted a mount, you'd have to go to a large shelter and spend a lot of money to purchase one. And you'd have to get permission to do so.
But now, there was no need to worry.
The shelter he lived in could be purchased directly at cost price.
Meanwhile, the various shelters of the Wraith Domain were all dumbfounded.
Generally, to upgrade from a medium shelter to a large shelter, most of the resources of a realm must be gathered. Although District One was originally one of the top Shelters in the Evil Ghost Domain and had subsequently annexed several other Shelters, it would still take a considerable amount of time before it could become a Large Shelter.
In the end, he succeeded in just a few days. It was simply inconceivable.
"Contact Blue Frost, the leader of the first squad in the first district. Tell him that we, the ninth squad, are willing to submit to them."
"How can they be so fast? Rather than joining a Guild, I might as well join District One right now. I need to get to District One and establish a good relationship with them."
…
Shortly after the announcement was made … Many of the top ten squads in the Shelters tried to curry favor with District One.
After a medium shelter became a large shelter, they would have an additional 70,000 player slots. They could easily increase the population of two or three Medium Shelters. If they could join, they would no longer have to worry about mounts. They could also enjoy the various benefits of a large shelter.
Meanwhile, inside District One's Shelter's Crystal Pillar, Blue Frost and the others were similarly shocked.
It was reasonable for a shelter to be promoted to a large shelter. However, none of them had expected that after the Shifeng used the Chapter of Shelter to upgrade their shelter, their control over the Shelter would become even more powerful. Their control over the Shelter had actually become even more powerful.
The Shelter had always belonged to everyone. Meanwhile, the top ten squads in the Shelter were merely managers. They were not the owners. Managers were determined based on their contributions to the Shelter. As long as someone else's contribution surpassed theirs, they could replace them. This was the case even if everyone worked together to upgrade their Shelter to a large shelter.
Only, after each promotion, the top ten squads would receive a massive amount of Contribution Points, leaving the other squads in the dust. Hence, although it was difficult for a Guild Force to annex a powerful Shelter, it was not impossible.
However, after the Shifeng used the Chapter of Shelter, things were completely different.
The Shifeng had actually become the Shelter's masters.
Although not everyone could do so, the Overseers were far more powerful than the Overseers in District One. To put it simply, the Overseers held a higher position than the Overseers in District One. They could remove players from District One at will, and they would no longer be considered District One's players. They would no longer enjoy any of the benefits that District One's Shelter offered.
Of course, this power was not applicable to the top ten squads. Moreover, there was a limit to the number of masters each day.
However, this was already frightening enough. They could easily eliminate potential threats, preventing those who had designs on the Shelter from seizing it.
However, the most powerful aspect of the masters was their veto power.
For example, if the top ten squads wanted to construct something, even if all of the squads agreed to the construction, as long as the master was not willing, the project would not succeed.
With these two powers, the master's status was unrivaled.
Moreover, the master's status had nothing to do with Contribution Points. In other words, no matter how many Contribution Points others contributed to the Shelter, they could not become the master unless they captured the entire Shelter. Once the Shelter was destroyed, the master would cease to exist.
However, capturing a large Shelter was not so easy. In other words, the Ling YI Society owned all of District One's Shelter. It was impossible for outsiders to seize the Shelter.
"So, the Chapter of Shelter has such a function."
Shi Feng had only realized this after using the Shelter. However, this way, he wouldn't have to worry about the Shelter's safety at all. He could fully display his capabilities. Otherwise, if someone else took over the Shelter, all of his efforts would be for naught. That would be a huge loss.
Now that he no longer had such concerns, he could invest more resources into the Shelter, turning it into an impenetrable fortress.
Following which, Shifeng left the Shelter's affairs to Blue Frost. He then purchased all of the Hundred Berry Wine from the Lion's Bar and returned to White River City with a large number of Attribute Gemstones that Blue Frost had prepared.
As the Shelter had just been promoted to a large Shelter, its specialty products had doubled. As a result, the Lion's Bar had 200 bottles of Hundred Berry Wine. However, Blue Frost and the others had already purchased 50 bottles, so they still had 150 bottles left. Even so, Shifeng was very satisfied.
