Chapter 1427 ā Causing a Storm with One Sentence
āSnow, have someone compile a report on Crimson Castle for me. To be precise, I want information on the towns the Guild controls. The more detail, the better,ā Shi Feng ordered.
āDetailed information on Crimson Castleās Guild towns?ā Gentle Snow couldnāt help her growing confusion. Very quickly, however, she thought of a possibility. Shocked, she asked, āGuild Leader, do you intend to raid one of their Guild towns?ā
āRaid one of Crimson Castleās towns?ā Shi Feng shook his head. Chuckling, he said, āNo. I want to raid them all!ā
If this had happened earlier, Shi Feng wouldnāt have many options to deal with Crimson Castle. At most, heād be able to weather a battle of attrition.
However, things had changed.
Not only had he make a killing from the Zero Wing Auction, but he had also obtained a frightening profit from Stone Forest Townās Battle Arena and Auction House. Right now, players were almost always signing up to join the Battle Arena and Auction House.
Including the 10,000 Magic Crystals he had won from Yan Tianxing, he had over 190,000 on hand.
During the war with Heavenās Burial and the monster army, he only had around 50,000 Magic Crystals prepared. It had been impossible to maximize his war weaponsā power. If he had had enough Magic Crystals during those battles, he wouldāve easily won the war.
Now that he had over 190,000 Magic Crystals, Crimson Castle was simply trying to get itself killed by daring to provoke him.
He was even confident of capturing a first-rate Guildās town with the resources he had available, let alone a second-rate Guild like Crimson Castle.
āRaid all of Crimson Castleās towns?!ā Shi Fengās declaration shocked everyone in the VIP room.
A Guild town was vital to a Guildās development. Hence, Guild towns were generally heavily fortified with static defenses and many players, making them very difficult to capture. One would need to prepare quite a bit to capture a Guild Town, yet Shi Feng had decided to take all of the towns under Crimson Castleās controlā¦
āSnow, get the Branch Guildās main force members ready. And spread the news. I want every Guild in the Black Dragon Empire to know. Weāll take action as soon as youāve gathered the information I requested!ā Shi Feng instructed.
āWeāre not hiding our intentions?ā Gentle Snow was dazed for a long moment after listening to Shi Fengās command.
When raiding an enemy Guild town, one generally kept their operations a secret. It would give a force the greatest chance of success, yet Shi Feng wanted to declare his intentions publicly. It was no different than saying, āIām going to raid you, so you best get ready.ā
However, since her Guild Leader had given her the order, she had no choice but to follow through.
Although Nine Dragons Emperor quietly backed Crimson Castle, taking over the Guildās towns would be a piece of cake if Zero Wing got serious and mobilized all of its elite and expert players. After all, Zero Wing had an overwhelming advantage over Crimson Castle in terms of both quality and quantity. Only, doing so would strain Zero Wingās funds.
Meanwhile, before the players in the arena left the venue, Gentle Snow had tasked her subordinates to make the announcement, stating Zero Wingās plans to raid Crimson Castleās Guild towns in the Lake Heart City region.
The news caused an uproar throughout the Black Dragon Empire.
āWhatās going on?! Zero Wing plans to attack Crimson Castle?!ā
āDidnāt Crimson Castle lose its bet to Zero Wing? Does the Guild have to be so ruthless?ā
āNo. Iāve heard that a few third-rate Guilds allied with Crimson Castle have mobilized their forces to cause trouble around Hidden Fog Town. It is clear that they are trying to keep the town out of Zero Wingās hands. Zero Wingās likely infuriated.ā
āEven so, isnāt this unwise? Guild towns arenāt that easy to raid. The majority of Zero Wingās forces are stationed in Star-Moon Kingdom. With them so far away, itāll be even more difficult to capture Crimson Castleās towns.ā
The players on the forums discussed the matter heatedly. Almost nobody was optimistic about Zero Wingās chances.
Although Zero Wing had a Branch Guild in Lake Heart City, it lacked strength in the Black Dragon Empire. The Branch Guild simply wasnāt on the same level as the main branch in Star-Moon Kingdom. Teleporting players from Star-Moon Kingdom to Lake Heart City was costly. In addition, Crimson Castle was allied with four other second-rate Guilds. Those Guilds would lend Crimson Castle aid if it were attacked.
Even the empireās first-rate Guilds would struggle to raid one of Crimson Castleās towns. And even if success were possible, none of these Guilds would be willing to pay the price.
āHahaha! Zero Wing mustāve lost its mind! Do they think that our townsā defenses are just for display?ā Crimson Fox, who had long since returned to his Guildās Residence, laughed when he heard the news.
He had planned to fight it out with Zero Wing slowly, but it would seem that preparing for such had been a waste.
Although the two towns Crimson Castle controlled were not particularly popular among the general populace, both were close to ore- and herb-rich maps, and the Guild and its four allies used them as resource warehouses. Naturally, he had invested plenty of resources in the townās defenses.
Each town had eight Defense Turrets, magic barriers, and other war weapons. Even a 200,000-man elite army wouldnāt pose a threat to the towns. Furthermore, the four second-rate Guilds had constructed temporary Guild Residences in both. Their members could reinforce the towns at a momentās notice.
Even if Zero Wing mobilized all of its elite members, it could never capture their towns.
āGuild Leader, weāve just received a message from Nine Dragons Emperorās people. He said that he will send a 200-man expert team to protect both towns. Each team will also have six Gnome Cannons,ā Lonely Castle reported. āNine Dragons Emperor has also offered to ignore our previous failure, allowing Crimson Castle to remain the five Guildsā leader if we give Zero Wing a good beating.ā
āGo to the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilionās messengers, and let Nine Dragons Emperor know that he can rest assured. Unless the sun rises from the west, Zero Wingās members should not even think about setting foot in Crimson Castleās towns, much less capture them,ā Crimson Fox responded confidently.
Meanwhile, in the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilionās Residence in the Black Dragon Empire, Phoenix Rain nearly jumped in surprise when she received the news. She had never expected such insanity from Zero Wing. She immediately contacted Shi Feng.
āGuild Leader Black Flame, do you really plan to raid Crimson Castleās Guild towns?ā Phoenix Raid asked seriously.
āThatās right.ā Shi Feng nodded.
āI beg of you to discard the idea. Nine Dragons Emperor is Crimson Castleās backer. Moreover, he instructed his subordinates to create resource warehouses in both towns. Heās already stationed his personal Shadow Dragon Legion in the towns long-term, as well,ā Phoenix Rain explained.
The Shadow Dragon Legion was one of the three trump card legions under Nine Dragons Emperorās command. Among the three legions, Martial Dragonās War Dragon Legion was the strongest. Although the Shadow Dragon Legionās overall strength was weaker than the War Dragon Legion, it was fond of large-scale battles. Hence, Nine Dragons Emperor had sent his men to protect Crimson Castleās two towns.
Zero Wing had just made a name for itself in the Black Dragon Empire. Before accumulating sufficient strength, it was unwise to raid these two towns.
āThe Shadow Dragon Legion?ā Shi Feng had heard of the legion before. In response, however, he simply chuckled and thanked the woman, āThank you for your warning, Phoenix Pavilion Master. I will be careful. I still have much to tend to, so if thereās nothing else, Iāll be disconnecting the call now.ā

Saying so, Shi Feng ended their conversation.
āWhat is this man thinkingā¦ā When Phoenix Rain had seen Shi Fengās calm expression, she wondered if Shi Feng actually understood how powerful the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilionās trump card legions were.
Any superpowerās trump card legions could annihilate an elite army of tens of thousands. Furthermore, the Shadow Dragon Legion specialized in large-scale combat.
Meanwhile, Gentle Snow finished gathering information on Crimson Castleās Guild towns and handed the report to her Guild Leader.
