Chapter 167 Monster Town

The news of the monster town's assault quickly spread throughout the Star-Moon Kingdom, followed by rumors of Stone Forest Town's increasing insecurity.

This delighted many guilds, especially the members of Blackwater and Underworld.

No one had expected that even the heavens would help them.

As long as Zero Wing lost Stone Forest Town as a vital economic source, they could easily crush Zero Wing with their financial backing.

Furthermore, Blackwater and Underworld deliberately began buying large quantities of Light Stones from Candlelight Trading Firm, as well as their own manufactured Light Stones, to sell in their shops, quickly solving the shortage.

Although this temporarily increased Candlelight Trading Firm's income and resulted in losses for them, in the long run, players would gradually flock to World Dominance Trading Firm and Blackwater Trading Firm, breaking the habit of buying from Candlelight Trading Firm. Fewer and fewer players visited Candlelight Trading Firm, further suppressing Zero Wing's hard-earned momentum.

Because of this, the elite players who had initially wanted to join Zero Wing began to hesitate.

Upon receiving the news, Aqua Rose immediately launched an investigation, which quickly dispelled her joy at having invited Half Summer Allure.

"Guild Leader, this is all the information I've gathered." Aqua Rose immediately contacted Shi Feng.

In just under an hour, the sales of Light Stones in Candlelight Trading Firm had increased four or five times. In contrast, the popularity gained through the Advanced Mana Armor Kit was snatched away by the World Dominance and Blackwater Trading Firms. The number of players wanting to join Zero Wing had also plummeted by half, which was not good news for Zero Wing, which desperately needed manpower.

"Blackwater and Underworld really have good methods. Only they would dare to use such tactics," Shi Feng commented, looking at Candlelight Trading Firm's income and customer flow.

"Guild Leader, how can you still be joking? If they can produce Light Stones in large quantities, we'll really be in trouble," Aqua Rose said unhappily. "And as you can see, the situation in Stone Forest Town is quite bad. According to our investigation, the number of monsters is increasing, initially estimated to be over a hundred thousand, and they are beginning to spread. I'm afraid it won't be long before they attack Stone Forest Town."

Shi Feng looked at the information Aqua Rose sent. In the video, Shi Feng also saw a familiar figure.

This figure was the one-horned humanoid monster, but its level had increased significantly compared to before, reaching Level 53. Its health had also undergone a qualitative change, increasing from over one million to six million, meaning it had been promoted from a Level 40 Elite monster to almost a Level 50 Lord monster. This rate of progress was truly chilling.

Fortunately, these humanoid one-horned monsters were few in number. Most were Level 50 to 60 beast-type monsters. Their intelligence and combat skills were obviously inferior to the humanoid one-horned monsters, but these beast-type monsters already had the combat skills of ordinary players, which was a disaster for ordinary players.

If this continued, Shi Feng had no doubt that the entire Star-Moon Kingdom would be in danger.

"Since Blackwater Consortium and the others want to kick us when we're down, then I'll help them along. Any player who buys more than two stacks of Light Stones will get them for two Silver coins each. If each player only buys one stack, they'll be sold for 80 Copper coins each," Shi Feng said with a smile. "As for the monsters, let's not worry about them. We'll do what we need to do. We'll see who's crying and who's laughing in the end."

If he didn't have the Magic Tower Design, he would really be worried about the monsters cultivated by the Evil God's Temple.

But now it was different. As long as the Magic Tower was built in Stone Forest Town, it would be the safest place besides the NPC cities and special important towns.

If the Evil God's Temple monsters spread throughout the Star-Moon Kingdom area, he definitely wouldn't be the one crying.

"Are you really going to let it go?" Aqua Rose was still worried.

Although she knew that Zero Wing had other sources of income, the magic crystal income from Stone Forest Town was really important. Without the supply of magic crystals, the guild's development would soon stagnate.

"Don't worry," Shi Feng said confidently.

The Magic Tower was not a joke. Otherwise, it wouldn't have become the mainstream defensive building in God's Domain.

Time passed, and Shi Feng finally spent most of the day building the Magic Tower.

The moment it was completed, Shi Feng's experience points soared, and his forging proficiency directly increased by 500 points. For Shi Feng, a Master Blacksmith, it was already difficult to increase even one point of proficiency. He had to make advanced items to have a chance to improve. Now, increasing it by 500 points directly was more than a Master Blacksmith's entire day's work.

At the same time as its completion, the Magic Tower, towering in the center of Stone Forest Town, spread out a wave of cyan light, making everyone in Stone Forest Town feel like they were being watched.

"What is this thing?"

The players on the street saw the towering Magic Tower. At the top of the tower was a huge magic crystal, emitting a faint blue glow, like the moon illuminating the night. This made everyone curious.

Before Shi Feng built the Magic Tower, it was shrouded in a layer of mist, completely obscuring the situation inside. Everyone only knew that something was being built, but they didn't know what.

Now, seeing this tall building, everyone was captivated by the Magic Tower's charming appearance.

Shi Feng himself stood on top of the Magic Tower, pressing one hand on the huge magic crystal, and began to officially activate the Magic Tower.

The Magic Tower had three main functions.

The first function was to attack distant targets, with a power comparable to a primary magic pulse cannon, but with a very short cooldown, the same as the turrets that had been built.

The second function was reconnaissance, which could detect targets within a radius of 10,000 yards.

The third function was the most popular among the major guilds: mana enhancement. However, the mana enhancement was far less than that of a magic tower built in a city. Generally, the mana enhancement of five Magic Towers was less than one-third of that of a magic tower. However, this was already very good for a small town. After all, progressing from a small town to a city was a very long process. The Magic Tower was equivalent to a transitional building.

But even so, it was already very good.

System: Activate the Magic Tower? Activation requires 1,000 magic crystals, and maintaining the magic power requires 500 magic crystals per day.

"Activate!" Shi Feng clicked the activate button without saying a word.
