Chapter 1 A Lively City

Star-Moon Kingdom, White River City.

"It's so lively!"

Shi Feng walked out of the Teleportation Hall. The streets were bustling with activity. Player merchants could be seen hawking their wares everywhere, and various pick-up groups were recruiting members for team副本 (instance dungeons).

These pick-up groups were all quite strong, with levels almost all above 56. There were even several Tier 2 class leaders. This was very impressive for current pick-up groups. In other cities, pick-up groups were usually led by Tier 1 experts, with Tier 2 experts rarely leading teams. However, outside the Teleportation Hall, most pick-up groups were led by Tier 2 experts.

In addition to the pick-up groups, Shi Feng also saw many adventurer teams recruiting members on the street. These adventurer teams were also very strong, with the number of Tier 2 experts in the teams generally above ten. There were even well-known adventurer teams from other kingdoms recruiting members in White River City.

Besides the major adventurer teams, the levels and strengths of the players on the street were generally very high. Level 57 player experts were everywhere, and there were even free players equipped with several Level 50 Mithril equipment pieces.

The prosperity of White River City even surpassed Star-Moon City, and it didn't seem like an ordinary NPC city at all. The level of development completely exceeded Shi Feng's expectations.

"The Zero Wing Guild is amazing now. Not only can they resist the attacks of Miracle in the Black Dragon Empire, but I also heard that they joined the Tianji Business Alliance some time ago. This time, Zero Wing is recruiting a lot of people. I must join the Zero Wing Guild!"

"Yes, I heard, I also heard that many well-known adventurer teams who got the news have also come to White River City, wanting to join the Zero Wing Guild. Even if they can't join, they will probably try to become Zero Wing's affiliated adventurer teams. Recently, because of this matter, more and more players are coming to White River City."

"Who says otherwise? Although the resources around White River City are not very good, you can go directly to the Eclipse Gate in White River City, where upgrading and obtaining resources are quite good. Even if you can't join the Zero Wing Guild now, this is still the Zero Wing Guild's base camp. Maybe they will continue to recruit people in the future, so upgrading and developing here will give you a better chance to join Zero Wing!"

…

Walking on the street, the players on the street were excitedly talking about the Zero Wing Guild.

Although the Zero Wing Guild had some strength before, it ultimately lacked background and funds, completely relying on itself to support itself. This left many players and adventurer teams feeling uncertain, but now the Zero Wing Guild has shown great strength and joined the Tianji Business Alliance.

Even without the support of a large consortium, there is no need to worry too much about funding for future development. It is even very likely that the Zero Wing Guild will become the next top-tier guild. This is a great opportunity for many adventurer teams and players.

After all, the positions of the existing top-tier guilds and super guilds are already fixed. It is too difficult to climb up, even for geniuses, it takes a long time. After all, major top-tier guilds and super guilds never lack geniuses.

But the Zero Wing Guild is different. The guild is not yet stable, and its foundation is insufficient in various aspects. It is very short of talent, and the future of the Zero Wing Guild can already see a glimmer of hope. As long as you join the Zero Wing Guild and show some performance, it is not impossible to become a high-level member of the guild in the future.

This way, the chances of becoming a high-level member of a top-tier guild are much faster than slowly climbing to the top in a top-tier guild.

For such an opportunity, how could any player or adventurer team with some strength let it go?

This made White River City become the focus of the entire Star-Moon Kingdom. A large number of free experts and well-known adventurer teams poured in, making White River City instantly become an NPC city with a player population of over ten million. The quality is simply not comparable to the capitals of other kingdoms.

Shi Feng returned to the Candlelight Trading Firm in White River City. Not only was the Zero Wing residence busy, but even the Candlelight Trading Firm was extremely popular. At this time, Liang Jing was reviewing the long line of life players at the gate.

This long queue stretched from one end of the street to the other, and these life players were all very good. At the very least, they were all Apprentice Blacksmiths, Apprentice Alchemists, etc. There wasn't even a single apprentice. Among them, there were even advanced professions that first-rate guilds had to pay attention to. This made the free players who came to develop in White River City dumbfounded, and other guilds were even more stunned.

Major guilds offered various generous conditions in order to recruit an advanced profession, but very few were able to come, but now the Candlelight Trading Firm has rejected hundreds of advanced professions…

"The news is spreading really fast!" Shi Feng looked at the thousands of life players lining up, and the life players who were rushing here from the street, and was amazed.

It must be said that joining a large business alliance does indeed have many benefits, and he didn't expect the name of the Tianji Business Alliance to be so useful.

The Candlelight Trading Firm has not yet officially started trading with the Tianji Business Alliance, but so many life players are already willing to join the Candlelight Trading Firm. If the trade is officially connected, and the products made by the Candlelight Trading Firm begin to be sold through the Tianji Business Alliance's channels, then the number of people who come over will probably double several times.

However, Shi Feng was not unable to understand.

Although the Candlelight Trading Firm had a rich foundation and a strong ability to cultivate talents in the past, there were too few channels for selling goods, and life players in the Candlelight Trading Firm relied on making commissions from the production of goods to earn money, which destined them to be able to support only a small number of life players, but now it is different.

Now the Candlelight Trading Firm has a foundation and a wide range of channels. These channels are simply not comparable to first-rate guilds. It can be said that the channels of some top-tier guilds are now even inferior to Zero Wing. In the eyes of life players, developing in the Candlelight Trading Firm is naturally the best choice.

Afterwards, Shi Feng walked alone into the special workshop of the Candlelight Trading Firm, and handed over the obtained recipe for the Resurrection Potion to Miao Wu Yin, so that Miao Wu Yin, the chief alchemist, could choose someone to learn how to make the Resurrection Potion. Then, he himself continued to make the Void Domain.

After spending more than an hour, Shi Feng made another five sets of Void Domain. These five sets of Void Domain are enough for many elites and experts of Zero Wing to use for a while. Even if there is no Void Domain afterwards, the outer area of the forbidden area of life in the Witch's Hill will be cleared, enough for ordinary Tier 2 professional experts to lead other Tier 1 players to level up.

After dealing with this matter, Shi Feng ran to the Zero Wing residence.

At this time, in the second-floor hall of the Zero Wing residence, Hei Zi and others were already sitting there, waiting for a long time, all looking forward to this physical training.

After all, their own combat level is the foundation, and the more they fight against those experts, the more they feel this way.

In the past, they could suppress their opponents with basic attributes, but as the level continued to increase, the gap became smaller and smaller.

"Guild Leader, we are really lucky this time. As soon as we entered the guild's main force group, we encountered the guild's internal training. I wonder what kind of guidance the Guild Leader will give us!" A young Tier 2 swordsman Qi Guang looked at the middle-aged man next to him, who was full of scholarly temperament, excitedly.

"I have already said that I am no longer the leader of the Wujie Adventurer Team. Just call me Brother Mang Gu in the future." Mang Gu still looked at the excited Qi Guang speechlessly, "But we are indeed lucky this time. We can actually be personally led and trained by Sword King Black Flame. He should be teaching us some special footwork or movement techniques."

Every big guild has internal training, such as learning some unpassed-down secret combat skills, or some skill lectures. In Mang Gu's experienced view, the possibility of learning combat skills is greater, after all, the Zero Wing Guild is known for having many combat skills.

At this time, not only were Mang Gu and Qi Guang from the Wujie Adventurer Team, but also other well-known adventurer teams who had joined the Zero Wing Guild earlier, such as the leader of the Huoyun Fox, Can Yun, and the deputy leader, Yue Wan'ge, were also among them, all curious about what kind of special training Shi Feng would give them.

"Guild Leader, everyone is here." Shui Se Qiang Wei said.

"Okay, then let's set off now." Shi Feng nodded, and led everyone to the first basement level of the guild residence.
