Chapter 1 Unforeseen Circumstances

"Going to see the Four Element Towers?" Aqua Rose looked at Shi Feng, puzzled.

Although Heavenly Burial had just issued the bounty, it wouldn't affect Zero Wing in the short term, but if they didn't prepare early, the consequences could be very serious, ranging from the guild's decline to its collapse.

After all, the purpose of joining a guild was to level up and get equipment more easily, not to become prey, with players constantly watching their lives.

However, Aqua Rose had no choice but to follow Shi Feng to the Four Element Towers, which were still under construction in Zero Wing City.

Meanwhile, the official forums of the Star-Moon Kingdom had exploded.

"Heavenly Burial is making a move! This bounty is really generous. Just killing an ordinary member gives 20 Silver coins. I can't even earn that much in a day!"

"Tell me about it. Even if it's hard to kill Zero Wing's core members, it's much easier to kill those ordinary and elite members. If you can seize the opportunity, maybe you'll have enough money for a mount."

"Group forming! Wilderness hunting group, contact me if you want to earn extra money!"

"It seems that Heavenly Burial is serious. I wonder who will get the position of the number one guild in Star-Moon Kingdom."

"It's definitely Heavenly Burial. You haven't seen Heavenly Burial's foundation, not to mention that they now have a treasure like Ancient Rock City. They don't have to worry about money at all."

"As expected of a guild that can take down an Orc city. Zero Wing is in trouble this time. Even if Heavenly Burial doesn't have to do anything, this move alone can exhaust Zero Wing to death."

…

Everyone was hotly discussing the bounty formally issued by Heavenly Burial, and many strong players were tempted. Dark players lurking in the shadows had completely locked their targets on Zero Wing, after all, killing players could not only get dropped equipment but also earn a small fortune.

Moreover, this was a bounty created by Heavenly Burial. With so many players attacking Zero Wing members, Zero Wing wouldn't be able to target anyone, and they could kill with impunity.

Inside the Star River Alliance's residence in Star-Moon City.

"Guild Leader, Heavenly Burial's speed is really fast. I wonder how Zero Wing will deal with this. Relying on Ancient Rock City as a continuous gold mine, if Zero Wing fights a war of attrition with Heavenly Burial, I'm afraid they will be exhausted to death," Purple Eye said slowly, looking at the news just delivered.

This kind of method could be said to be the most troublesome for major guilds and the one they least wanted to use.

The main reason was that it cost too much money. Regardless of the outcome, it was a huge drain on both sides, completely harming one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of their own.

But the current Heavenly Burial was not afraid of this.

After all, once Ancient Rock City was opened, the gold coins would flow in like water, and they were not afraid of exhausting Zero Wing to death.

"Yes! If Zero Wing had agreed to Tianji Pavilion's investment before, I'm afraid they wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now," Star River Past sighed.

As the guild leader of a first-rate guild that had already joined Tianji Pavilion, he knew a lot of inside information.

Even he was tempted by the high price offered by Tianji Pavilion to Zero Wing, but Zero Wing refused without saying a word…

If Zero Wing had obtained Tianji Pavilion's investment now, Heavenly Burial probably wouldn't dare to play like this. The ones who would be exhausted would probably not be Zero Wing, but Heavenly Burial.

In Ancient Rock City, Lonely Burial smiled coldly as he looked at the information sent by his subordinates.

"Wu Xia did a beautiful job. I want to see how Zero Wing will continue to survive in the Star-Moon Kingdom." Lonely Burial looked at the situation sent by Wu Xia, with a smile on his face.

Back then, when Stone Forest Town announced that it would not accept merchants, players, and adventure teams from Crimson Iron Town, it caused a lot of losses to their Heavenly Burial. Now he wanted Zero Wing to experience this kind of taste as well.

"Guild Leader Lonely Burial, you are too ruthless. Zero Wing can't even give up the throne of the number one guild now. They can only watch themselves being consumed little by little, and finally withdraw from the entire Star-Moon Kingdom," Lei Jingyang said with a smile.

"They can only blame their Zero Wing for being too ignorant and daring to oppose our Heavenly Burial!" Lonely Burial sneered, "It won't be long before I make the name Zero Wing disappear completely from the Star-Moon Kingdom!"

Being wanted as a whole guild was certainly extremely expensive, but the impact on the guild was also very great.

Being ambushed in the wild all the time made retaliation difficult.

Before long, members of the guild would quit one by one, and no one would be willing to join. Not only would the guild not be able to develop, but it would also have to spend a lot of money to compensate the losses of the guild members.

With the continuous decrease in guild members and the increasing expenses, even if they didn't do anything afterwards, Zero Wing would eventually have to disband or leave due to insufficient funds.

While the major guilds were thinking about how Zero Wing would solve this matter, Shi Feng had arrived in front of the Four Element Towers.

The Four Element Towers had a total of four towers, all towering in the four corners of Zero Wing City, each tower was a hundred meters high, just like four giants guarding the surroundings of Zero Wing City.

"Guild Leader, news just came that many of our guild members have been attacked by players. The initial number of losses has reached more than four thousand…" Aqua Rose looked at the news reported by her subordinates, her eyebrows furrowed.

More than four thousand people!

Even if the guild didn't fully compensate the losses of the guild members, the amount of gold coins spent was still considerable. Over time, even the money earned by the Candlelight Trading Firm would not be enough to subsidize the guild members.

And these were not the most critical.

What was truly worrying was the guild's reputation!

"There really are a lot of players who value money over their lives." Shi Feng couldn't help but click his tongue when he heard this.

Zero Wing's recruitment standards had always been very high. If you wanted to kill a member of Zero Wing, unless the difference in combat power between the two sides was extremely large, otherwise the other party would not be able to escape unscathed. But in this short period of time, more than four thousand members of Zero Wing had been killed, which was somewhat beyond Shi Feng's expectations.

"Guild Leader, what should we do now?" Aqua Rose asked.

"Good, since Heavenly Burial wants to play, then we'll play with him," Shi Feng laughed, "Immediately notify all guild members that they must act in teams from now on. Members who do not follow the rules will not receive any compensation from the guild. In addition, announce to the public that anyone who dares to kill a member of our Zero Wing guild will be permanently blacklisted and will not be able to enter any guild town of Zero Wing. Secondly, we will issue a bounty on the entire Heavenly Burial guild, not only in the Star-Moon Kingdom, but also in the Orc Empire!"

As soon as Shi Feng finished speaking, Aqua Rose and Youlan couldn't help but freeze.

This was completely a rhythm of competing with Heavenly Burial to see who had more money…

Moreover, doing so would probably cause even greater damage to the guild, and if it was not done well, it would backfire.

"Guild Leader, with our guild's current financial resources, I'm afraid…" Aqua Rose couldn't help but persuade.

In order to build Zero Wing City, to develop the Black Dragon Empire, and to popularize guild mounts, Zero Wing invested a lot of money every day. Doing so now was simply inviting fire to burn oneself.

"Don't worry about the funds, the wool comes from the sheep. Zero Wing City will be opened to the public in three hours. Go and announce it now!" Shi Feng shrugged, and then walked towards the Four Element Towers.

"This…" Aqua Rose couldn't help but have a headache.

Many of the buildings in Zero Wing City had not yet been completed, and they were not attractive to current players at all. Moreover, the introduction of players would make the construction of Zero Wing City more troublesome, which was really not worth the loss.

But since Shi Feng, the guild leader, had said it so seriously, she had no choice but to follow his instructions.

Immediately, Aqua Rose sorted it out and posted everything Shi Feng said on the official website in the name of the Zero Wing guild.
