Chapter 1422 Imperial Palace

The Imperial Capital Ruins.

On the streets teeming with undead creatures, Shi Feng controlled the Tier 3 demons, constantly killing ghouls.

However, the ghouls were few in number. After clearing the streets around the royal palace, Shi Feng only obtained four Bronze Proficiency Books. On the other hand, his experience bar had risen considerably, reaching 53% at Level 37. At most, it would only take a day to reach Level 38.

Just as Shi Feng killed the last ghoul within the 200-yard restricted area, the ghoul suddenly emitted a golden light that shot into the sky. After the golden light dissipated, a golden ray entered Shi Feng's body.

The system notification also suddenly rang.

System: The player has liberated a bound soul and received the Blessing of the Deceased. Each ghoul killed will increase the Thunder Beast Empire's reputation by 1 point.

"Killing a ghoul increases the Empire's reputation by one point?" Shi Feng immediately understood how to enter the royal palace.

Whether it was a kingdom's royal palace or an empire's royal palace, players could not easily enter them without reaching a certain level of reputation.

However, neither a kingdom's reputation nor an empire's reputation was easy to increase. Generally, only special missions or the first clear of a team dungeon would grant some kingdom or empire reputation.

These Thunder Beast Guardians were mechanical puppets that would only execute previously issued commands. As long as the reputation was met, he could naturally enter.

To enter a kingdom's royal palace, the kingdom's reputation generally needed to reach the Count level. To enter an empire's royal palace, the empire's reputation had to reach the Marquis level.

And the Marquis' reputation was 5,000 points.

Accumulating so much reputation was normally very difficult, but now, it could be obtained simply by killing ghouls, which made it much easier.

"No wonder this quest is set for ten days. It turns out that you need to kill 5,000 ghouls." Shi Feng understood somewhat why the quest had a ten-day time limit.

Ghouls were Level 60 Special Elites, and there were also many Painful Undead wandering around, which needed to be killed together. It would take a normal Level 60 expert quite a bit of time to kill one, from seven or eight minutes to ten or more minutes. To kill 5,000 ghouls, even fighting non-stop for ten days would not be enough.

But this was nothing to Shi Feng.

A Level 52 Tier 3 demon killed ghouls faster than a twenty-player team, not to mention that he could control two Tier 3 demons.

Afterward, Shi Feng began frantically searching for ghouls and started killing them quickly.

Previously, because he had to wait for the ghouls in the 200-yard restricted area, Shi Feng's activity range was limited, so the killing efficiency was very low. Now that there was no such restriction, he could directly kill from one end of the street to the other without stopping.

As the ghouls were killed one by one, Shi Feng's reputation was constantly increasing.

System: Killed a ghoul, Thunder Beast Empire reputation +1.

System: Killed a ghoul, Thunder Beast Empire reputation +1.

System: Killed a ghoul, Thunder Beast Empire reputation +1.

…

For more than three hours in a row, Shi Feng's reputation increased to 207 points, which was much slower than Shi Feng had expected.

Although he killed quickly, there were only so many ghouls on one street. It took a lot of time to run from one ghoul to another, which greatly reduced the speed of reputation increase.

"At this speed, I should be able to complete it in two days of non-stop fighting. The remaining time should be enough to remove the curse and complete the quest." Just as Shi Feng was thinking this, the system suddenly issued a warning sound.

This warning sound was the ringtone for a phone call in reality. Generally, only when a player entered an area where they could not contact the outside world would the phone in reality be unable to connect to God's Domain and issue a warning.

"Did something happen outside?" Without thinking too much, Shi Feng immediately swiped his finger, opened the system bar, and clicked the log out button.

He had previously told Huo Wu and the others that he was doing a quest in a special area and could not contact the outside world. If there was nothing major, they did not need to contact him unless there was an emergency.

It was 3 AM in reality, and ordinary people would not contact him at this time.

The only possibility was that something had happened to Zero Wing, which was why Hei Zi and the others were calling in the middle of the night.

In the middle of the night, Shi Feng came out of the virtual reality pod. The surroundings were dark.

The incoming call music from the optical brain watch on Shi Feng's wrist echoed in the silent bedroom. Shi Feng glanced at the caller ID. It was a call from Hei Zi.

"Hei Zi, what happened on God's Domain that you are so anxious?" Shi Feng asked after answering the phone.

"Guild Leader, something big... happened in the Stoneclaw Mountains." Hei Zi said anxiously after answering the phone, "About 300 members of our guild's Dark God Legion were almost completely wiped out in the Stoneclaw Mountains. Only a dozen or so people escaped back to Stone Forest Town."

"How is that possible?" Shi Feng was stunned. "Could it be the Star River Alliance? That's impossible!"

Although the Dark God Legion only had 300 people, their equipment was first-class, and their combat skills were beyond doubt. In addition, they had explosive skills like the Power of Darkness. Even if the Star River Alliance sent out all their elites, it was impossible for only a dozen or so people to escape back.

"I also thought it was the Star River Alliance at the time, but according to the people who escaped back, those people were not from the Star River Alliance, nor were they red-named players. They were a group of free players. The moment they appeared, they killed dozens of members of the Dark God Legion. Even if the entire group activated the Power of Darkness, they couldn't withstand a few hits."

"Among these people, the powerful ones could kill them in a few hits. They died before they could even react..."

Hei Zi was also shocked by this, so he immediately contacted Shi Feng.

It should be known that the Dark God Legion was the most powerful team in the entire Zero Wing Guild besides the main force. It was among the top ranks in the entire Star-Moon Kingdom, not to mention they had the Power of Darkness.

But such a team was wiped out...

How could it not be shocking?

Now this matter had spread throughout the entire Star-Moon Kingdom. If it was not handled well, Zero Wing Guild's prestige would plummet.

"A group of free players with top-tier equipment and extremely high skills? Could it be the Seven Sins Flowers?" Shi Feng thought about it, and only the Seven Sins Flowers had this ability, "But aren't the Seven Sins Flowers' target the Zero Wing's main force and guild executives?"

Hei Zi was shocked when he heard Shi Feng say it was the Seven Sins Flowers.

He had great faith in Shi Feng's deduction, but he did not expect the Seven Sins Flowers to be so powerful.

Originally, he thought that no force could easily defeat Zero Wing's Dark God Legion. Even if the Seven Sins Flowers wanted to take action, it would probably take a lot of effort, but judging from the results, it was simply crushing.

If the Dark God Legion was like this, the main force probably wouldn't be much better.

"Guild Leader, what should we do now?" Hei Zi panicked and quickly asked.
