Even to a Super Guild, 80,000 Gold was a considerable sum. It was impossible to collect so much money within a short time, not to mention other Guilds.
Gentle Snow did not expect anyone to take over all of the Shops.
Now, she would sell as much as she could. With enough gold coins, her next step would be easier to begin.
Just as the Shifeng inspected the Shops' Lands, Gentle Snow received a call from Zhao Yueru.
"Snow, the Guild has suddenly called for an emergency Elder Meeting. They have officially announced that you have been removed from your position as Guild Leader and will be replaced by Abandoned Wave. Aside from the rare materials you took, Abandoned Wave has frozen all of the Guild's raw materials. Our God Slaying Army members have also been ambushed in the fields and at the entrance of Dungeons. They have suffered heavy casualties," Zhao Yueru said, her eyes filled with rage.
The Blackwater Consortium had gone too far this time.
The God Slaying Army was their greatest reliance in leaving Ouroboros. These experts were expert players that Ouroboros had nurtured for many years. With these elites, as long as they had sufficient Coins and funds, they could quickly establish a new Ouroboros and establish a foothold in other kingdoms.
It was not a big deal that the God Slaying Army members' locations had been leaked. After all, every member of the God Slaying Army was an expert. Not to mention their equipment, killing them would not be easy.
However, the Blackwater Consortium had managed to find so many experts. These experts had slaughtered the God Slaying Army members scattered throughout the Starmoon Kingdom. They had suffered heavy losses. Not only had they lost a level, but they had also lost a frightening amount of weapons and equipment after death.
When players died, they would drop at least two pieces of equipment. Some would even drop three pieces.
The God Slaying Army's weapons and equipment were the best in Ouroboros. Just losing one piece of equipment from each of the several hundred members would be a huge blow to the God Slaying Army's morale. Now, each member had lost two or three pieces of equipment. It would take a long time to replenish the lost weapons and equipment.
Originally, the God Slaying Army members could replenish their equipment in the Guild Warehouse. However, the Blackwater Consortium had restricted the authority of the God Slaying Army members. They could not retrieve even a piece of Common Equipment from the Guild Warehouse.
Now that the God-Slaying Army had become like this, it would be difficult for them to rise up in the other kingdoms within a short period of time.
"I understand. Immediately notify all the members of the God Slaying Army and tell them to be careful." After hearing Zhao Yueru's detailed report, Gentle Snow's frown deepened.
The fact that the Blackwater Consortium could kill so many members of the God-Slaying Army in such a short period of time was something that even their old rival, the Star Alliance, couldn't achieve. One could only imagine how powerful the Blackwater Consortium was. If they continued to stay in the Starmoon Kingdom, the final outcome would be obvious.
"Guild Leader Snow, you don't look too well. Did something happen?" Shifeng asked curiously, noticing Gentle Snow's odd expression.
"I just received news that the Blackwater Consortium has begun their revenge operation. Over 700 members of the God Slaying Army under my command have died. These people were all killed by a group of cloaked players. However, I believe that these people should be experts from the Blackwater Consortium," Gentle Snow said helplessly. She did not try to hide the truth. Moreover, it was impossible to keep such a huge matter a secret. It was only a matter of time before they found out.
"It seems that your defeat of Lethal Gale has made the Blackwater Consortium very anxious. Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken such a strenuous and thankless task." Shifeng was very surprised when he heard Gentle Snow's report.
After all was said and done, the Blackwater Consortium had already acquired Ouroboros. One could say that Ouroboros was the Blackwater Consortium's.
Ouroboros's strongest legion, the God Slaying Army, had lost over half of its members to a group of mysterious players in its own territory. This would damage Ouroboros's reputation.
"Since the Blackwater Consortium has already gone this far, I believe that even if you leave the Starmoon Kingdom, they will not let you go. They will definitely think of ways to get rid of you," Shifeng said seriously. "How about this? You can invest in the Ling YI Society and become a member of the Ling YI Society. With the Ling YI Society's influence in the Starmoon Kingdom, the fledgling Blackwater Consortium should not rashly provoke an all-out war between the two Guilds."
"This …" Gentle Snow could not help but hesitate when she heard Shifeng's suggestion.
The White Clan Group's establishment of Ouroboros had extraordinary significance. If possible, she still wanted a new Ouroboros. Moreover, the Blackwater Consortium wanted to deal with her. If she joined the Ling YI Society with Ouroboros's elites, the Blackwater Consortium would also target the Ling YI Society.
"You can rest assured about the shares and the treatment of your subordinates. I can give you 15% of the shares. In addition, I will give you 50 core member slots and establish the Ouroboros Legion. How about it?" Shifeng proposed.
"Aren't you afraid that the Blackwater Consortium will go all out to suppress us if you take us in?" Gentle Snow thought for a moment before her beautiful eyes shifted to Xiang Shifeng. She then asked in an extremely serious tone, "Moreover, with Ling Yi's current strength and potential, don't you think it's a huge loss for you to give us 15% of the shares with just our manpower and resources?"
The current Ling YI Society was no longer the same as it had been in the past.
Not only did it control Stone Forest Town, but it also owned the Starmoon Kingdom's number one trading firm. It was also known as the number one Guild in the Starmoon Kingdom. Even first-rate Guilds could not compete with it. Many large companies and corporations had tried to invest in Ling Yi. However, Ling Yi had rejected all of them.
In the outside world, large corporations were even willing to pay a price that could tempt even Super Guilds to obtain 50% of Ling Yi's shares. If it were a first-rate Guild, they would most likely be able to purchase several of them.
Yet, now, Ling Yi was willing to take out 15% of Ling Yi's shares to take them in. Most likely, nobody would believe such a thing.
Such an approach was no different from paying a huge price to provoke a colossus like the Blackwater Consortium.
"No, you are worth this price," Shifeng said firmly, shaking his head.
Gentle Snow was confused when she heard Shifeng's affirmation. Even she did not think that she was worth this price. However, Shifeng was extraordinarily certain. She could see the firm confidence in Shifeng's eyes.
At the same time, Gentle Snow was somewhat moved.
After so many years in Ouroboros, she had long since lost the feeling of trust. Yet, despite having only interacted with her a few times, Shifeng still trusted her so much.
She did not know what to say about this.
If she were to call Shifeng a fool, the Ling YI Society would not have its current achievements.
This indescribable feeling filled Gentle Snow with curiosity about the Ling YI Society.
"Alright, I can agree. However, before that, you have to agree to one condition of mine," Gentle Snow said seriously as she took a deep breath. She then looked at Shifeng seriously.
