Chapter 1759 Success?

"Success?"

Shi Feng looked at the completed azure eight-piece set on the stone platform, unable to contain the excitement in his heart.

Although he had more than a dozen sets of materials, the Azure Radiance was, after all, a top-tier Dark-Gold set. The difficulty of crafting it was second only to Epic-grade equipment. He was only an Intermediate Forging Master, and even with the Sage's Hand, which granted the success rate of an Advanced Forging Master, actually succeeding was still incredibly difficult.

Because success rate was just a success rate, and the crafting process itself was another matter entirely.

In the early days of God's Domain, to make it easier for players to craft various items, the Main God System had actively simplified various steps to the extreme. However, as players leveled up and gradually adapted to God's Domain, the Main God System began to subtly release these simplifications, making the crafting steps more and more complex and refined.

Crafting Dark-Gold sets became a huge watershed.

Sets were different from individual pieces. The energy flow of individual pieces was self-contained, while sets were not only self-contained but also part of a larger whole. With each additional piece of equipment, the energy flow became more complete until the entire set was assembled. The energy flow of all the pieces would then merge into a new whole, making the crafting process extremely difficult.

In the ancient times of God's Domain, weapons and equipment were actually divided into only two categories.

One was ordinary.

The other was extraordinary.

It was only after the fall of the ancient gods that weapons and equipment were subdivided. The ordinary category was divided into Bronze, Black Iron, Mithril, Fine Gold, and Dark-Gold, while Epic and Legendary grades belonged to the extraordinary realm.

Dark-Gold weapons and equipment could be said to be the limit of ordinary weapons, so they were very difficult to obtain and craft.

It could be said that ordinary expert players, without the support of a powerful force behind them, would find Dark-Gold weapons and equipment to be their limit.

And Dark-Gold sets were the limit within the limit of ordinary equipment, existing without any flaws. No matter how much the success rate was increased, any slight mistake during crafting would lead to direct failure. It was equipment with zero margin for error, and in reality, it was even harder to craft than Epic-grade equipment, because Epic-grade equipment at least had some margin for error, just a lower success rate.

As Shi Feng began to inspect the Azure Radiance, a system notification sounded in his ear.

System: Congratulations to the player for successfully crafting the Azure Radiance Set. Gained 10 million experience points, Forging Proficiency +200.

"As expected of a Dark-Gold eight-piece set, it gives so much proficiency." Shi Feng glanced at the system notification, his heart filled with joy.

At his level as an Intermediate Forging Master, even crafting ordinary Dark-Gold weapons and equipment gave very little proficiency. Usually, he would only get three points at most, so it would take a considerable amount of time to advance from Intermediate Forging Master to Advanced Forging Master.

Now, crafting the Azure Radiance granted 200 points at once, which was equivalent to successfully crafting nearly seventy pieces of Dark-Gold equipment. The reward was undeniably generous.

However, compared to the rewards given by the system, it was the attributes of the Azure Radiance that truly made Shi Feng happy.

Originally, the Azure Radiance was already a top-tier Dark-Gold set. Because of the addition of the Time Sand, the basic attributes of all eight pieces of equipment were increased by 10%. It should be known that in terms of basic attributes alone, ordinary Epic-grade equipment only had 20% to 30% more basic attributes than Dark-Gold equipment. Now, that difference was reduced by 10%, making it definitely the pinnacle of equipment below the extraordinary level.

If the effects of the few pieces of Epic-grade equipment he currently had weren't so good, he would really want to switch to the Azure Radiance right now.

After crafting one set of the Azure Radiance, Shi Feng didn't stop and continued crafting the next set.

Time flowed, and a day passed in a flash. The day for the official start of the auction battle had arrived.

At this time, the entire White River City was in an uproar, because today was a grand event in the entire God's Domain, and also the turning point that would determine the future regional divisions of the major powers. Countless players from the Star-Moon Kingdom and other kingdoms had gathered in White River City.

The streets were crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder. The number of players who had come to White River City had reached 50 million!

If White River City hadn't restricted the inflow of players, the number of players gathered would have been several times higher.

In the Star-Moon Kingdom, the high-level members of various guilds, who were usually hard to see, were now gathered in the auction house of White River City. The number of guilds, both large and small, exceeded two thousand. This was something that was usually unimaginable. Moreover, in addition to the major guilds, there were also a large number of adventurer teams and dark forces gathered in the auction house. Ordinary players simply weren't qualified to enter the White River City Auction House and were all blocked outside.

The vast number of free players outside looked at the members of the various forces entering the auction house with envy.

To enter the current White River City Auction House, players needed to have at least one piece of Epic-grade material to be qualified to participate in this competition. Otherwise, no matter how powerful or rich a player was, they wouldn't be able to enter the current White River City Auction House and could only wait outside.

However, even so, a large number of players were still willing to stay outside the White River City Auction House and watch.

This wasn't because everyone was full and had nothing to do, but because there were several huge water mirrors in the sky above the commercial plaza. These water mirrors could directly see the battle situation in the auction house. As for other places in White River City, whether it was hotels, restaurants, bars, or other places to rest, and even on the streets, there were similar magic water mirrors that could directly watch this grand event.

In the top-floor VIP viewing room of the auction house, two players, one old and one young, sat in the spacious hall, looking down at the auction arena that could easily accommodate one hundred thousand people.

If the high-level members of other large guilds saw that there were only two people in the huge top-floor VIP viewing room, they would probably vomit blood and curse them for being wasteful.

Because the top-floor VIP viewing room of the auction house required five pieces of Epic-grade materials to reserve. Although Epic-grade materials weren't Epic-grade items, they were still very difficult to obtain. Even for the current first-rate guilds, they were very rare. Many large guilds had only managed to obtain dozens of pieces, and now they were squandering five pieces at once, something they wouldn't even dare to think about.

"Amazing! This is just White River City, and there are so many super forces coming!" Mu Ling纱 in the VIP viewing room looked at the major super forces entering the venue one by one with some surprise.

At this time, not only the Star Ring, Blackwater, and Return of the Kings super forces had come to the venue, but also people from Crimson Emperor, Saint Magic Hall, and Tianji Pavilion. These were all giants that dominated one side.

"That's for sure. Although the Star-Moon Kingdom is just a middle-level kingdom, the auction house of an NPC city is very important. As long as you get it, it's a very stable source of funds. Moreover, the Star-Moon Kingdom also has a treasure land like the Witch Hill. I'm afraid there are many super forces that are tempted," the amiable old man next to her said with a smile.

If the high-level members of the Crimson Emperor or Star Ring Guild were here and saw this old man, they would probably be shocked, because this old man was the former president of Zhanhun Buluo (Unyielding War Soul), Wang Buluxing (Wang Bu Liu Xing, literally Wang Who Doesn't Stay Behind), who had made Zhanhun Buluo prosperous for a time. However, due to his physical condition and age, he had already retired to the second line more than twenty years ago.

"Grandpa, does that mean Zero Wing has no chance to defend White River City at all?" Mu Ling纱 couldn't help but ask.

She was very grateful to the Zero Wing Guild, after all, Zero Wing had helped her a lot before, and her friend Aqua Rose was also in the Zero Wing Guild. If White River City, which served as Zero Wing's base camp, was obtained by other forces, the loss to Zero Wing would be unimaginable.

"No chance, even if our Zhanhun Buluo personally helped, it's probably impossible." Wang Buluxing shook his head.

"Even our Zhanhun Buluo can't do it?" Mu Ling纱 asked in surprise.

Their Zhanhun Buluo was also a super-first-rate guild, although it had begun to decline, its strength was still not comparable to ordinary super-first-rate guilds.

"You underestimate these super forces too much. Although they are all super forces, the background and foundation behind these forces are much stronger than our Zhanhun Buluo. At other times, the major super forces may still give our Zhanhun Buluo some face, but now it is a competition for the future, and no one will give anyone face. Moreover, Zero Wing has provoked too many super forces and offended them too deeply, incurring public wrath. Now, no one can save them," Wang Buluxing sighed slightly.

Hearing this, Mu Ling纱 couldn't help but lower her head, her heart filled with sighs.

The general trend is irresistible!

Although Zero Wing had developed extremely fast and had great potential, it couldn't resist the general trend after all. It could only be said that fate was playing tricks.

Just as the major forces were entering the auction house one by one, and the battle for contention was about to officially begin, a group of players wearing Six-Winged Emblems also walked into the arena, led by Shi Feng.
