Chapter 3909 - Chapter 983 - Insane Zero Wing
Chapter 983 â Insane Zero Wing
âLong-term entry into the Eternal Realm?â s.h.i.+ Fengâs words stunned Purgatory Jade momentarily. Then, she excitedly asked, âHave you found a connecting pa.s.sage?!â
The ability to stay in the Eternal Realm long-term was incredibly tempting to Dragonâs Crown.
Whether it was Zero Wingâs Intermediate Divine Strengthening Scrolls or the Eternal Realmâs Secret Treasures, both had allowed Dragonâs Crown to benefit ma.s.sively, such as finally killing their homeworldâs previously unkillable Level 245 Bosses. These Bosses had even allowed Dragonâs Crown to obtain plenty of Level 245 weapons and equipment. Unfortunately, due to a lack of powerful secret treasures, Dragonâs Crown couldnât form a sufficiently strong team to raid Level 245 Taboo Team Dungeons.
If Dragonâs Crown could gain long-term entry into the Eternal Realm, it would have a much easier time obtaining Intermediate Divine Strengthening Scrolls, Secret Treasures, and even Divine Artifacts.
âItâs not exactly a connecting pa.s.sage,â s.h.i.+ Feng said, shaking his head. âAlthough my solution can connect two worlds and let players travel between them, it comes with restrictions similar to your summoning.â
âSimilar restrictions? Is there a time limit?â Purgatory Jade grew disappointed at s.h.i.+ Fengâs answer.
If s.h.i.+ Fengâs solution only allowed them to travel to the Eternal Realm for a limited duration, it wouldnât benefit them significantly. At most, they would get another opportunity to trade within a set timeframe.
âSomewhat, but not exactly. Players who use my method to travel between worlds will have their strength eroded by the foreign worldâs World Power. Although it isnât lethal, they will grow weaker over time,â s.h.i.+ Feng explained. âTo get rid of the erosion effect, players simply need to return to their homeworld and rest. Either that, or they can rest in this city!â
Although the Divine Pathstone was heaven-defying, it had a ma.s.sive flaw: Players using it to travel to a foreign world would be treated as trespa.s.sers and receive strong rejection from the foreign world. This rejection would weaken them over time, making it impossible for them to explore the foreign world for long periods.
Fortunately, the Divine Pathstone offered a solution to this problem, granting the town or city it was used in a powerful cleansing effect that helped dissipate World Power. This could be considered a benefit given to the Divine Pathstoneâs user. This was also why s.h.i.+ Feng had chosen to connect with the remnant primordial world.
âIt only weakens players?â Purgatory Jadeâs eyes brightened at s.h.i.+ Fengâs explanation.
Dragonâs Crown only sought to obtain secret treasures from the Eternal Realm, so this weakening effect was not a problem. With Dragonâs Crownâs foundations, it could easily establish itself in the Eternal Realm, even if it had to send players in rotation.
Before Purgatory Jade could ask more questions, Kowloon Demon suddenly spoke up.
âGuild Leader Black Flame, what does Dragon Crown need to pay for this access?â Kowloon Demon asked, looking at s.h.i.+ Feng warily.
The benefits of having near-constant access to the Eternal Realm were ma.s.sive for Dragonâs Crown. It wasnât hard to imagine s.h.i.+ Feng charging an astronomical price for this access.
If s.h.i.+ Fengâs price touched upon Dragonâs Crownâs foundations, it would become difficult for them to reach an agreement.
âI donât need Dragonâs Crown to pay anything. Dragonâs Crown only needs to fulfill two of my conditions. Moreover, one of these conditions is highly beneficial for Dragonâs Crown,â s.h.i.+ Feng said, chuckling as he looked at Kowloon Demonâs wariness. âMy first condition is for Dragonâs Crown to lend me some manpower to help me complete a task. My second condition is to set the connection point of the pathway in one of Dragonâs Crownâs super-large-scale Holy Cities accessible by teleportation. Then, I will need you to advertise the pathway in the remnant primordial world and not restrict anyone from traveling between our two worlds.â
Upon hearing s.h.i.+ Fengâs conditions, Purgatory Jade and Kowloon Demon couldnât help but look at s.h.i.+ Feng in confusion. They couldnât understand what he was trying to achieve.
Of the two conditions, only the first one made sense. s.h.i.+ Fengâs second condition was essentially welfare to their homeworldâs players. Although fulfilling this condition would cause Dragonâs Crown to lose many of its advantages, the fact that Dragonâs Crown would gain partial control over the pathway more than made up for this loss. However, it was a different story for s.h.i.+ Feng. He would lose the initiative to trade with their homeworldâs players and powers by giving everyone free access to the pathway. This would drastically reduce the benefits he could obtain.
âGuild Leader Black Flame, Dragonâs Crown can fulfill both of your conditions,â Purgatory Jade answered after taking a deep breath. âBut are you sure you want to do this? The remnant primordial worldâs other powers will likely choose to partner with powers other than Zero Wing. Should that happen, the most youâll get out of them is an entry fee.â
If the remnant primordial worldâs various powers could enter the Eternal Realm without restrictions, it went without saying they would make comparisons when choosing powers to partner with. Purgatory Jade more or less knew about Zero Wingâs situation in the Eternal Realm. The Guild was, at best, above average. It definitely wasnât ranked among the top. Hence, it was likely that the remnant primordial worldâs various powers would choose to partner with powers other than Zero Wing. At that time, all Zero Wing could get out of these powers was an entry fee to its city.
âThatâs right. The entrance fee is all I want,â s.h.i.+ Feng said, nodding. âMoreover, once the pathway is established, I will host a monthly auction for this primordial civilization cityâs priority entry slots.â
ââŠâ s.h.i.+ Fengâs response rendered Purgatory Jade speechless. âGuild Leader Black Flame, are you certain of your decision?â
No matter how she thought about it, there was no way Zero Wing could profit more from selling priority entry slots than partnering with the remnant primordial worldâs various powers. After all, the biggest hurdle to the cooperation between the Eternal Realm and the remnant primordial world was the lack of a connecting pathway. So long as a pathway existed, the remnant primordial worldâs various powers wouldnât care if they could send a group of players or only one player over; they could still trade with the Eternal Realmâs powers. Even if they needed priority entry into Zero Wingâs city, they only needed to secure one priority slot.
âMhm. We can sign a G.o.dâs Domain Contract right now if you want,â s.h.i.+ Feng said, nodding firmly. âBy the way, when you are advertising the pathway, please mention that Zero Wingâs auction will use G.o.d Crystals as the trading currency. The minimum bid for each slot will be one G.o.d Crystal. The minimum increment for bids is also one G.o.d Crystal. The first auction will only have 10,000 slots.â
A minimum of one G.o.d Crystal per slot? And there will even be 10,000 slots? Kowloon Demon stared at s.h.i.+ Feng in shock.
Even in the remnant primordial world, G.o.d Crystals were very rare. They were one of the primary materials to repair Fragmented Legendary items. Yet, Zero Wing intended to sell its cityâs priority entry slots for at least one G.o.d Crystal each! It even expected to sell 10,000 slots! This was beyond madness!
However, Purgatory Jade and Kowloon Demon didnât dwell on this matter. Since the pathway belonged to s.h.i.+ Feng, he could do whatever he wanted. So long as Dragonâs Crown could freely access the Eternal Realm, whether s.h.i.+ Feng made any profit was none of their business.
After establis.h.i.+ng a contract with Dragonâs Crown, s.h.i.+ Feng completed their prior trade agreement, receiving 50 million Undying Souls and 10,000 pieces of Level 235 Taboo Fragmented Legendary Equipment from Purgatory Jade.
When Blackie finally transported the Divine Pathstone to the primordial civilization city, s.h.i.+ Feng promptly spent 5,000 G.o.d Crystals to establish a pathway to the s.p.a.ce-time coordinates Purgatory Jade provided. Then, he spent 10 million units of Seven Luminaries Crystal to activate the primordial civilization cityâs Teleportation Tower function, using it to link the city with Shadowring Town. When the teleportation link formed, a giant teleportation gate appeared in Shadowring Townâs central plaza, attracting the attention of many players in the town.
âGuild Leader, isnât the price for the priority entry slots a little too steep?â When Blackie saw the list of city rules and management details s.h.i.+ Feng had sent him, he couldnât help rubbing his eyes, wondering if he had read it wrong. âThe primordial civilization city has just opened. Although it provides players with a significant leveling advantage, the price of 100 bottles of Life Potion or one G.o.d Crystal per slot is⊠I donât think many powers can accept such a priceâŠâ
When the Tower of the Abyss appeared in Shadowring Town, the townâs priority entry slots had also become incredibly valuable. Even so, the price never reached one G.o.d Crystal or 100 bottles of Life Potion. After all, they were only selling priority entry into a city, not selling shops or houses. Even if many powers would like for their members to have easy access to Skeleton Hill, a Level 230 Taboo Map, they werenât so desperate that they would pay such a steep price for this benefit.
âDonât worry. Itâs not expensive,â s.h.i.+ Feng said, chuckling at Blackieâs concern.
If the primordial civilization city only offered access to a Level 230 leveling map, its priority entry slots naturally wouldnât be worth so much. However, it was a different story if the city allowed access to a world that produced Level 245 Taboo Legendary Equipment.
When Blackie saw that he couldnât persuade s.h.i.+ Feng, he could only carry out his instructions and publish the details pertaining to Zero Wingâs new city on the Eternal Realmâs official forum.
Shortly after Blackieâs post went live, the entire forum exploded with activity.
âIs Zero Wing insane? One G.o.d Crystal for each priority entry slot? Are you sure this isnât a robbery?â
