Chapter 1 On White River City's Central Street

Walking on the central street of White River City, Shi Feng had already used the Demon Mask to transform back into Ye Feng, and his ID name had also reverted to white.

Shi Feng had been using the fake ID Black Flame for quite some time, and hadn't used his real ID in a while. For a game like God's Domain, which saw a massive influx of players every day and was constantly evolving with new experts emerging, it was enough for the people of White River City to forget about Ye Feng.

Shi Feng walked all the way to the entrance of the White River City bank, and not a single player recognized him. Some players did glance at him, but not because of his identity, but because of his equipment.

A Magic Weapon, the Abyssal Blade, hung at his waist, along with a Dark-Gold ranked Hell Shadow. Even though Shi Feng had suppressed the glowing effects, the exquisite patterns on the sword's body and the flowing light on the blade were clearly not something ordinary weapons should have.

"The changes in White River City are really big now. The levels of ordinary players are almost the same as those in Star-Moon City."

Shi Feng casually observed, and in just a short period of time, the streets were filled with players around level fifteen or sixteen. These people all had several Bronze-ranked equipment, and you could even see scattered players at levels seventeen or eighteen, with a mix of Bronze and Mysterious-Iron equipment. This was completely unheard of before.

Seeing this, Shi Feng suddenly had an idea.

To turn White River City into the center of the Star-Moon Kingdom.

Originally, Shi Feng's idea was to wait until the Zero Wing Guild was strong enough before developing a branch in Star-Moon City to seize human resources. After all, Star-Moon City was the center of the Star-Moon Kingdom, a must-contend place for many first-rate guilds, and also a place where the elites of the Star-Moon Kingdom gathered. The number of players was large, and no other city could compare. Controlling Star-Moon City meant possessing a large number of elite player resources, and the expansion of strength in the mid-term would definitely be faster than in other cities.

However, seeing White River City as it was now, Shi Feng suddenly felt, why should Zero Wing fight those first-rate guilds to the death?

The main reason most players went to Star-Moon City was that Star-Moon City had more development opportunities, more chances, and many advantages that other cities did not have.

But what about now?

Because the Zero Wing Guild was in White River City and did not recruit people in other cities, these players took the initiative to run over. What was their purpose in running over?

Wasn't it because the Zero Wing Guild had advantages that other guilds did not have?

As long as Zero Wing demonstrated more and more advantages that other guilds did not have, more players would run to White River City. Moreover, as players' levels increased and their income increased, the teleportation fees between cities would no longer be a problem. When that time came, it was not impossible for White River City to develop into a city surpassing Star-Moon City.

"Hmm, is this internal information from Underworld?" Shi Feng suddenly heard a message prompt. A message notification bar kept flashing in front of Shi Feng, with the sender listed as Juetian.

The information sent by Juetian was undoubtedly a godsend for Shi Feng, exactly what he wanted most.

Underworld had already seized the dominant power in several cities surrounding White River City. Shi Feng did not know the extent of this control or which cities were dominated, making it impossible to respond. It would take a lot of time to find and disrupt Underworld's plans, which was not what Shi Feng wanted.

If he could grasp detailed information about Underworld, things would be much easier.

"There's a lot of information here. Juetian didn't kidnap Feng Xuanyang, did he? How else could he get such detailed information?" Shi Feng opened it and was surprised to find that there were dozens of pages of information, with a level of detail far beyond imagination. This was definitely not information that outer members could grasp. It was estimated that only someone at Feng Xuanyang's level would be qualified to know.

With such detailed information about Underworld, Shi Feng immediately found a secluded place in the bank to sit down and began to study it carefully.

More than two hours later, Shi Feng finally finished reading the last page and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Although I already overestimated Underworld, I didn't expect Underworld to be so terrifying. Just in the eastern region of the Star-Moon Kingdom, there are as many as 316 guilds secretly controlled by them. No wonder even Bai Qingxue is so wary of Underworld." Shi Feng just roughly estimated that the number of players controlled by Underworld in the eastern region of the Star-Moon Kingdom was as high as one million. The number of people controlled in the eastern region of Underworld was the least, mainly concentrated near the central royal city.

The total number of Zero Wing now was only five thousand people. Compared to Underworld's millions of people, there was no difference from ants.

Not to mention the elite Hades Guard secretly cultivated by Underworld itself. Although the number of those Hades Guards was small, only four hundred people, each of them was an expert. If they formed a hundred-person team, it would be easy to wipe out a hundred-person elite team leveling up in the wild. And there were four hundred such experts. It was simply terrifying.

In addition, the five major cities near White River City, Qing霜 Cheng (Azure Frost City), Fengye Cheng (Maple Leaf City), Liefeng Cheng (Gale City), Shuangshi Cheng (Twin Lion City), and Hanxing Cheng (Cold Star City) had all been dominated by guilds secretly controlled by Underworld. Moreover, these guilds were no worse than Dark Star. It had to be said that without strong enemies, growth was rapid. Among them, the guild Yixiao Qingcheng (A Smile傾城) leading Fengye Cheng (Maple Leaf City) was much stronger than Dark Star at its peak.

If they were not stopped, it would only be a matter of time before these powerful guilds controlled by Underworld became the overlords of their cities.

"Underworld is really a headache. The situation is worse than I imagined." Shi Feng frowned, scratched his head, and couldn't help but sink into thought.

With the current strength of the Zero Wing Guild, it would be very difficult to deal with even one of them with all their strength across cities, let alone dealing with these five. Moreover, fighting across cities was unfavorable in other people's territory. Just causing trouble required enough powerful combat power. If there were too few people, it would not affect these guilds at all. To do this, they would have to pay a lot of teleportation fees and waste a lot of manpower and material resources, which Zero Wing could not afford.

Moreover, with his current strength, he couldn't greatly impact a guild.

"The speed of job change must be accelerated." Shi Feng looked at the Stone of the Sword in his backpack. His desire to change jobs was even more urgent.

After thinking about it, Shi Feng had no way to solve the situation. The only thing he could do was to increase his strength.

There was a big gap in combat power between first-order players and ordinary players, not to mention Hidden Classes. If he could successfully change jobs and become a first-order professional player, he might be able to cause some trouble for these guilds and buy more development time for Zero Wing.

Then, Shi Feng walked to the bank counter, took out the two Philosopher's Stones that had been stored in his personal warehouse, and also took out a large number of Magic Crystals from the guild warehouse.

These Magic Crystals were dropped by guild members when killing monsters and bosses in dungeons. Because they were materials used to make equipment, but they were not needed now, they had been piled up in the guild warehouse. However, Shi Feng had taken them all now.

Afterward, Shi Feng returned to the Star Mark Firm's forging room and took out the Philosopher's Stone and all the Magic Crystals.

Magic Source Stones were originally minerals born in Magic Crystals. If you refined Magic Crystals, you would have a certain chance of obtaining Magic Source Stones. Therefore, Shi Feng wanted to refine Magic Crystals through the Philosopher's Stone to obtain Magic Source Stones.

However, Magic Source Stones were extremely precious and rare. The probability of refining Magic Source Stones from Magic Crystals was extremely low. Shi Feng was not sure.

"Hopefully, it will succeed."

Shi Feng then picked up the transparent Magic Crystal in one hand and the Philosopher's Stone in the other. He silently prayed in his heart and chose to refine the Magic Crystal.
