Candlelight's Advanced Forging Room: ● Shush.
Under A Melancholy Smile's command, Candlelight's most skilled Alchemist and Engineer immediately rushed over.
"Take a look at these first. Tell me how confident you are in producing these items." Shifeng then took out two designs and handed them to the Alchemist Jiubin and the Engineer Mountain Sea Smile.
The two hurriedly nodded, not daring to be careless.
The Alchemist Jiubin was Candlelight's only Intermediate Alchemist, while the Engineer Mountain Sea Smile was the same. In the past, both of them had made significant achievements, becoming Master Alchemists.
In the past, even the Guild Leader of a second-rate Guild like Shifeng had to treat them with respect.
Now, however, the two of them were nervous when they saw Shifeng. Unlike other Lifestyle players, they were as obedient as kittens as they carefully studied the designs Shifeng had given them.
However, this could not be helped. Hei Yan was simply too famous.
In the entire Starmoon Kingdom, he was a big shot who stood at the pinnacle of Starmoon Kingdom. Now that such a big shot had suddenly summoned them and asked them to do something for him, how could they not be nervous?
After the two of them nervously studied the designs, a trace of shock appeared in their eyes. The items Shifeng had taken out were simply too astonishing.
"Guild Leader, with such a complex alchemy array, even I only have a 10% chance of success. If I can become an Advanced Alchemist, I might be able to increase my chances to 20%?" the Alchemist Jiubin said nervously.
"What about you?" Shifeng then looked at the Engineer Mountain Sea Smile beside him.
Mountain Sea Smile stuttered as he said, "Five … percent."
"Five percent?" Shifeng frowned slightly. When Mountain Sea Smile saw Shifeng's expression, he nearly collapsed.
"Alright, then. From now on, I'll allow the two of you to use the Special Workshop and focus on producing the items on the list." After giving the matter some thought, Shifeng gritted his teeth.
The item he took out was none other than a part of the Magic Device Blueprint that he had obtained from the Darkness Shrine.
As a weapon that had ended the Era of Gods and Devils, the difficulty of crafting it was naturally no small matter. Generally speaking, the success rate of crafting a part for a Master Craftsman was not high, let alone these people who had yet to reach the Master Craftsman rank.
As for the core components of the Magic Device, he would have to rely on him to create it. However, he was still far from being an Intermediate Blacksmith.
"I need to raise my proficiency." Shifeng could not help but sigh as he looked at the design, which was divided into over 20 pages. "Sure enough, producing Magic Devices isn't easy."
However, without a Magic Device, he dared not head to the Top of the World.
Stoneclaw Mountains' outer region.
Surrounded by mountains. In the wooded valley, one could see the flames of battle and areas illuminated by Light Stones.
Ever since Stone Forest Town had opened to the public, the Stoneclaw Mountains had become a hunting ground for expert teams. Even in the middle of the night, the various teams' passion for hunting did not decrease in the slightest.
The various large teams grinded day and night for Magic Crystals and equipment.
Magic Crystals were the standard currency in the Divine Colosseum. Meanwhile, the Stoneclaw Mountains was a Level 30 to Level 49 Regional Dungeon. Naturally, the equipment it dropped ranged from Level 30 to Level 45. Moreover, the equipment it dropped was not much better than in large-scale Team Dungeons. Only, the number of items it dropped with each kill was slightly lower.
Now that the Ling YI Society had made a name for itself by obtaining the First Clear of a Level 30, 100-man Hell Mode Team Dungeon, there was no point in competing for the First Clear of a Level 30, 100-man Team Dungeon.
After all, Level 30 was only a small part of the leveling process. Only, the Ling Yi Society had a significant advantage during this small part of the leveling process. However, there were still Level 40, Level 50, and Level 100. The competition for Level 30 large-scale Team Dungeons had only just begun.
Meanwhile, the Stoneclaw Mountains was the best place to compete for the First Clear of large-scale Team Dungeons in the future. Here, not only could players level up much faster, but they could also obtain a large number of Magic Crystals to improve their techniques. Most importantly, they could form high-level equipment very quickly.
Aside from the fact that Team Dungeons in the outside world had Cooldowns, which greatly limited the production of top-tier equipment, raiding from one Team Dungeon to another required a lot of time. However, Regional Dungeons were different. They did not have Cooldowns. As long as players were strong enough, they could grind for Level 30 and above top-tier equipment at any time. This was a time-saving method.
Hence, players would have a massive advantage when raiding 50-man and 100-man Team Dungeons in the future.
Because of this, the various large Guilds had frantically dispatched players to grind in the Stoneclaw Mountains.
"Boss Red, this Lord dropped something," an Assassin from the Star Alliance said excitedly as he picked up the loot.
Meanwhile, the Lord lying beside this Assassin was a three-meter-tall Half-orc. This Half-orc was Level 35. In addition, a large number of Elite Half-orc and Special Elite Half-orc corpses lay beside this Half-orc.
When Red Feather, who was resting beside a large tree, heard the news, a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"Let me take a look," Red Feather hurriedly said.
Although the Stoneclaw Mountains dropped plenty of Level 30 and above equipment, most of them were Level 30 and above Common Equipment. Only Level 30 and above top-tier equipment could catch their attention.
"Boss, it's a Level 35 Fine-Gold longbow," the Assassin excitedly handed the longbow to Red Feather.
"It really is a good bow. It's even slightly stronger than a Level 30 Dark-Gold longbow. Flourishing Willow is in luck. She'll be able to equip this weapon as soon as she reaches Level 35, "Red Feather said enviously as he used Appraisal to inspect the longbow's Attributes.
It had been some time since they had raided the Stoneclaw Mountains. However, the equipment they had obtained from killing these Lords was far from ideal. Most of them were Level 30 Secret-Silver and Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment. Very few of them were Level 35 Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment.
"However, we really wasted a lot of time on this battle. If not for the majority of our weapons being Fine-Gold rank, we would've had a hard time taking down these monsters." Red Feather still had a lingering fear when he recalled the previous battle.
The monsters in the Stoneclaw Mountains were generally much stronger than those in the outside world. Even Chieftain ranked monsters were only slightly weaker than Lords in the outside world. Meanwhile, Lord ranked monsters were even more amazing. In terms of combat power, they could rival High Lords in the outside world. Only, their HP was normal.
When they had faced the Level 35 Lord ranked Half-orcs, their melee weapons had very little effect on them. Only Fine-Gold rank and above weapons had been able to pierce the Lord ranked Half-orcs' tough skin, reducing their combat power slightly.
Only after the Lord ranked Half-orcs' combat power had been reduced did they finally manage to kill them.
In reality, Red Feather's team wasn't the only one suffering from this problem. Every team that came to the Stoneclaw Mountains suffered from this problem. Every time a team fought a battle in the Stoneclaw Mountains, they would consume a significant amount of their energy. Even players who wielded Secret-Silver Weapons would have to use Whetstones to recover their weapons' Durability after a battle. Otherwise, they would not be able to last until the next battle. Because of this, none of the teams in the Stoneclaw Mountains could fight for long periods of time.
"Boss Red Feather, Elder Purple Eye has encountered a Lord ranked monster and six Chieftains. She urgently needs our help."
"Purple Eye's team is really unlucky. They actually encountered so many monsters. Everyone, follow me immediately."
Not long after Red Feather's team rested, Purple Eye, who was also one of the strongest combatants in the Star Alliance, sent out a request for assistance. Red Feather had no choice but to lead his team to the Stoneclaw Mountains. A 100-man team faced the equivalent of a High Lord ranked monster and six Lords in the outside world. In addition, there were also plenty of Elite and Special Elite monsters. Even if the team's combat standards were not low, they would not be able to hold their ground.
While the various large teams were having headaches over this problem, Candlelight in Stone Forest Town had made a fortune. Originally, Candlelight had thought that the various large Guilds would not purchase Whetstones and Advanced Whetstones. However, the consumption of Whetstones in battle was simply too high. Even their own Guild did not have enough Whetstones. Hence, they had no choice but to purchase these items from Candlelight.
Because of this, Candlelight was extremely busy. They could sell several hundred Whetstones every minute.
Meanwhile, while the various large Guilds were busy in the Stoneclaw Mountains, Shifeng himself was immersed in his Special Forging Room, madly producing Intermediate Mana Armor Kits, continuously increasing his Forging Proficiency.
For four whole days, Shifeng did not sleep or rest. Instead, he frantically increased his Forging Proficiency. This continued until the sound of a system notification reached the Shifeng's ears.
Meanwhile, Shifeng's levels had also skyrocketed. Now that he was no longer suppressed, he had already reached Level 32. His leveling speed was simply astonishing.
