Chapter 1 Aftermath

After a great battle, it generally takes a long time to recover.

However, Zero Wing Guild became famous in one battle, and its prestige in the entire Star-Moon Kingdom rose several levels at once, even surpassing the few first-rate guilds in the Star-Moon Kingdom.

A large number of free players flocked to White River City.

This instantly increased the number of players in the ordinary guild, which originally had only 50,000 players, to a large guild with more than 80,000 players. Moreover, this was data after Zero Wing raised the difficulty of joining the guild, but the most terrifying thing was that this data was still rising crazily, with no sign of slowing down. The speed of development was so fast that it astonished the major guilds.

The current Zero Wing Guild can be completely described as overcrowded.

All of this is because Zero Wing's future is limitless.

Although Zero Wing was eye-catching before, it was still a small guild. If it accidentally provoked a large guild, it would definitely be destroyed. Therefore, when choosing a guild, everyone would first consider those large guilds.

But now it's different. First of all, Zero Wing is no longer afraid of any guild. Secondly, Zero Wing Guild's benefits and treatment exceed those of first-rate guilds. Thirdly, the various superb equipment in the guild warehouse are enough to make people drool, not to mention a large amount of personal space that can be rented.

Whether it is upgrading or improving the speed of equipment, it is faster than other guilds.

With so many advantages, naturally everyone wants to join.

"Your Zero Wing is too arrogant. It's just defeating an attack from Dragon Phoenix Pavilion. Our Flying Eagle Team is definitely in the middle and upper ranks in the vast wilderness. Even if we join a first-rate guild, we will be highly valued, but now when we join Zero Wing, only one or two out of ten people pass, and some even fail to pass. Isn't this taking us too lightly?" A Guardian Knight with a level as high as 24 said angrily.

"That's right, we came all the way here and spent a lot of teleportation fees. Aren't we just here to join Zero Wing Guild? Can't you lower the difficulty of the assessment?" Another Ranger at level 23 complained.

In the registration and assessment field of Zero Wing's residence, many players had a lot of opinions on this.

Even Water Rose had a headache about this, not understanding why Shi Feng suddenly wanted to raise the requirements. It was clear that the previous requirements were already not low, even higher than the threshold of first-rate guilds, but now the threshold has been raised another level, simply driving players away...

"Guild Leader, there are countless guilds in God's Domain, and they are all frantically recruiting people. Now that we have defeated Dragon Phoenix Pavilion, it is a good time for rapid development. If we don't take advantage of the popularity to recruit a large number of people now, it may be difficult to recruit people in the future. Can't we lower the conditions a little?" Water Rose asked regrettably.

At present, players who have the conditions to run from other cities are generally people who are doing well in their own cities, but in order to develop better in the future, they specifically came to White River City to join Zero Wing. It can be said that this group of players are the elites of other cities. It is a pity not to absorb them for their own use at this time.

"I won't change this condition. It's not like I invited them here. The conditions are there. If they pass, they can naturally join. If they can't pass, there's nothing I can do. Zero Wing's resources are limited, and we're not a scrap recycling station here. If there are more people who want to join, do I have to keep lowering the difficulty?"

"Moreover, Zero Wing's future development direction is the elite route. Recruiting so many people is meaningless." Shi Feng didn't have any regretful expression, and slowly explained, "You also saw the great battle with Dragon Phoenix Pavilion. A full 10,000 elite members were almost slaughtered by the War Dragon Legion. If it weren't for a large number of NPC guards, I'm afraid they would have been completely wiped out. So what we need to do now is not to expand the base, but to improve the quality."

Water Rose couldn't help but fall silent when she heard this.

In that battle, the gap between the two sides was too great. Not to mention the War Dragon Legion, just the level of the elite members, Zero Wing was much worse. If the levels of the two sides were similar, the losses would not have been so great.

"Indeed, I was dizzy-headed. I'll go and do it now." Water Rose was enlightened by Shi Feng's words, and now she realized that she had been overwhelmed by the joy of victory.

Zero Wing has always been an elite route. Because of this, the guild members' strength has improved so quickly. It is only 50,000 people, but there are more than 13,000 elite members. What an amazing ratio this is.

Moreover, Zero Wing has only been developing for this period of time. From a small guild of a few thousand people, it has developed to the point where the number of elite members exceeds that of second-rate guilds. All of this is because each member has more resources to share, which is why they have today's scene.

Afterwards, Shi Feng handed over all of Zero Wing's affairs to Water Rose, while he himself went to the forging room.

Intermediate Mana Armor Plates are really selling too well. The Intermediate Mana Armor Plates made a few days ago have been used up, and some must be replenished.

Shi Feng has been busy developing Candlelight Trading Firm during this period of time, and he hasn't done anything else.

Especially the epic quest Darkness Descends, which is about to reach the time limit.

Fortunately, the Candlelight Trading Firm has developed and its reputation has been completely opened up. It won't take long to collect 30,000 gold coins.

While a large number of players were signing up to join Zero Wing Guild, Candlelight Trading Firm was also very lively.

The prosperity of White River City is no longer inferior to that of Star-Moon City, and the large sales of equipment by Candlelight Trading Firm during this period have been very popular. As for Allure Trading Firm, it is completely incomparable.

In the lively Candlelight Trading Firm, the major guilds who originally wanted to add insult to injury gathered again, but this time everyone no longer had the arrogance they had before, and they were all well-behaved.

"Guild Leader, do you think Hei Yan will really want to see us this time when we come to Candlelight Trading Firm?" Purple Eye looked at Galaxy Past and asked.

"Since he is running a trading firm, he will naturally want to do business, but I am not sure about Hei Yan. He confronted Dragon Phoenix Pavilion without saying a word before, and maybe he will really ignore us." Galaxy Past smiled bitterly, "I knew I should have learned from Bai Qingxue at the beginning. I heard that Bai Qingxue sold a lot of Intermediate Mana Armor Plates, and a large team dungeon of fifty people is ready to be攻略 [gōnglüè, to guide a strategy or walkthrough]."

Dragon Phoenix Pavilion was defeated, and Nine Dragons Emperor was even more angry and took the War Dragon Legion back to the headquarters to recuperate. These first-rate guilds had no way to deal with Zero Wing, and the only thing they could do now was wait.

Not long after Shi Feng continued to make Intermediate Mana Armor Plates, Melancholic Smile came in.

"Guild Leader, many high-level executives from first-rate guilds have come to Candlelight Trading Firm. This time they all want to make an appointment with you to talk. They want to ask when you have time?" Melancholic Smile asked softly.

"They finally came?" Shi Feng stopped his movements and smiled slightly, "Then let's go and meet them."
