Chapter 177 Lingering Fear

The dissipation of the evil aura quickly drew the attention of the free players outside Stone Forest Town.

"No way, aren't we saying that evil aura is impossible to dispel?"

"I also checked the information. To dispel the evil aura, you have to cut off the source. Could it be that the Zero Wing Guild has secretly cut off the source?"

"That's not right. The source of the evil aura this time should be in Black Ridge Town, but Black Ridge Town is completely fine now."

"Then how did Zero Wing do it?"

Everyone discussed this, finding it unbelievable, and the news quickly spread throughout the Star-Moon Kingdom.

Blackwater's residence in Star-Moon City.

"This is impossible! How could that evil aura be dispelled?" Abandoned Wave, who had just been resurrected, looked at the information he had just received and roared almost madly, "This must be fake news released by Zero Wing! I can be sure that the evil aura cannot be dispelled!"

Evil aura is different from curses that can be purified, because evil aura is a chaotic energy that drives other energies to transform into evil aura, like a contagious virus. It is impossible to eliminate it, and can only be eradicated from the source. But eradicating the source is easier said than done. Even he doesn't know where the source is. The Black Ridge Town that is known is not accessible to players.

Moreover, the evil aura is extremely harmful to players. If players live in the evil aura for a long time, they will be infected by the evil aura, not to mention falling into a weak state. If the time is longer, they will turn into monsters, and players will not be able to log into God's Domain for a considerable period of time, making it more difficult to clear Black Ridge Town.

So he firmly believed that Zero Wing could not clear the evil aura.

The only possibility is that Zero Wing released fake news.

After all, the arena built by Zero Wing before handled a lot of memberships and collected a lot of membership fees. If the arena is gone, these membership fees must be compensated at the price. The purpose of releasing fake news is definitely to appease these members.

"Guild Leader, this is true. Our members lurking in Zero Wing have already detected that the evil aura spreading in the town is indeed weakening. It is estimated that it will completely dissipate in less than five days, and Stone Forest Town can continue to operate." Qin Muyun then took out another piece of information and said with a very bad expression.

This battle has not only caused the Blackwater Guild's elites to suffer heavy losses, but also reduced its prestige in the Star-Moon Kingdom to freezing point. Members are leaving every moment.

It will probably take a considerable amount of time to recuperate to restore vitality.

Fortunately, Zero Wing's Stone Forest Town is gone. As long as they recuperate for a period of time, with their strong funds and background, the development speed will definitely far exceed the Zero Wing Guild. The Zero Wing Guild's first throne will definitely not last long. But now that Stone Forest Town is fine, whether their Blackwater Guild's development speed can surpass the Zero Wing Guild is a question mark.

And this is definitely the result that the high-level executives of the Blackwater Consortium do not want to see.

"No, I definitely can't let Stone Forest Town still exist in this world!" Although Abandoned Wave was unwilling to accept it, the fact was already in front of him, and he had to take action, "You immediately contact him, and I will provide him with as many players as possible, but I want him to completely destroy Stone Forest Town with the monster army within five days!"

Qin Muyun couldn't help frowning.

She didn't expect Abandoned Wave to be so crazy.

Cultivating those monsters is not as easy as imagined. Any players who are sacrificed will not be able to log into God's Domain for many days. The war has already caused Blackwater's experts and elite players to drop a lot of levels, and now this is happening...

"Aren't you going yet?" Abandoned Wave glared at Qin Muyun, "Don't forget that I am still the Guild Leader!"

Qin Muyun had no choice but to contact the bandaged man.

"Black Flame! You wait, this time I will definitely make you pay a heavy price!" Abandoned Wave looked at the direction of Stone Forest Town outside the window and couldn't help but sneer.

…

Inside Stone Forest Town, the Zero Wing Guild also began to clean up the battlefield.

This battle can be said to be quite tragic. Most of the buildings in Stone Forest Town were directly destroyed, and the entire residence was bare. Even the arena was damaged a lot and required a lot of gold coins to repair.

But compared to the losses, the gains were not small.

Although the army of 200,000 monsters did not drop any weapons or equipment, they did drop a lot of monster materials, especially the materials dropped by the Lord-ranked monsters, which were rare materials for making weapons and equipment. In addition, after these evil beasts reached the leader level, they also had a chance to drop a silver-gray crystal called the Evil Energy Crystal.

Ordinary players may not know what this thing is used for and sell it directly to NPC merchants as garbage, but Shi Feng knows the true use of Evil Energy Crystals.

This use was discovered by a forging master in the previous life.

If you put some Evil Energy Crystals and Magic Crystals when making weapons and equipment, you can make the made weapons and equipment have a certain chance to generate magic patterns, which will have a certain strengthening effect on the weapons and equipment, but the strengthening is random. It is possible to strengthen basic attributes, or to strengthen attack and defense, or to strengthen hidden attributes, or the skill effects of the weapon. It can be said to be one of the forging masters' most wanted materials.

In the previous life, the most powerful weapon and equipment strengthened by Evil Energy Crystals made the Dark-Gold weapon have almost the level of an Epic weapon.

Epic-level weapons and equipment are so difficult to make, but Dark-Gold is much easier.

So the price of Evil Energy Crystals in the previous life was quite high. One Evil Energy Crystal could sell for ten gold coins, and you might not be able to buy it. Because in the later stages, many players' weapons and equipment were no longer obtained from drops, but were made by forging masters to suit their own weapons and equipment. Players naturally hope that the weapons made are as strong as possible, which also led to the appearance of evil god temples in that kingdom, and large numbers of players would rush there.

This time, the army of 200,000 monsters attacked the city, and many of them were monsters above the leader level, which made Zero Wing make a lot of money. A total of 2,428 Evil Energy Crystals were obtained, which can be converted into 24,280 gold coins. Plus the materials dropped by the monsters, it is more than enough to make up for the repair costs of the town.

Not to mention the weapons and equipment obtained by killing members of the Blackwater, Underworld, and Pantheon guilds. After deducting the lost weapons and equipment, a total of 114,633 weapons and equipment were obtained. The worst were level 35 Bronze equipment, and the best were even level 40 Dark-Gold equipment.

After deducting the compensation and rewards for guild members from these weapons and equipment, the net income was simply amazing.

Shi Feng was stunned for a while after seeing the list of weapons and equipment compiled by Aqua Rose and White হালকা Snow.

Although he had experienced many battles before, none of them made as much money as this one.

"Guild Leader, the people from Tianji Pavilion said they want to see you."
