Chapter 1 The Observation

In the top-floor private room of an upscale restaurant, Qing Tian Bai Yun stared silently at the members inside the Zero Wing Residence for a long time. He couldn't say a word in response to Bing Yu and Zhan Fu's questions.

"How can this be? Is the Zero Wing Guild really comparable to a first-rate guild?"

This question echoed deeply in Qing Tian Bai Yun's mind, and he could hardly believe his eyes.

Five hundred Tier 2 classes!

This number was simply unattainable for the current top-tier guilds.

Their Grim Reaper Studio only had sixty or so Tier 2 classes. If they were to fight in the wild, not to mention the individual combat power of the members on both sides, the difference in numbers alone would be nearly tenfold…

In the Fairy Empire, the major first-rate guilds might have more Tier 2 experts than Grim Reaper Studio, but the difference was very limited. The number would be even smaller when scattered in the wild. That was why Grim Reaper Studio was not afraid of playing guerrilla warfare with the major first-rate guilds. In addition, with the presence of their team leaders, they could be said to have a great advantage in the wild.

However, Grim Reaper Studio's methods against those first-rate guilds would not work against the Zero Wing Guild at all. Because of the nearly tenfold difference in Tier 2 classes, it could not be underestimated even if they were scattered in the wild. Not to mention that there were also experts in the Zero Wing Guild who could contend against the Grim Reaper Studio's team leader level.

If they were to directly fight the Zero Wing Guild in the Fairy Empire, Grim Reaper Studio would probably not gain any advantage.

"Bing Yu, Zhan Fu, you two stay with me. Everyone else can go back now," Qing Tian Bai Yun instructed in the team chat after pondering for a moment.

"We stay? Everyone else goes back?" Bing Yu looked at Qing Tian Bai Yun strangely and said, "These people were specially sent by the chief team leader to help us. If they all leave, what can the three of us do here?"

The chief team leader sent them to Zero Wing City for two reasons: first, to find out the strength of the Zero Wing Guild; and second, to find an opportunity to knock Zero Wing down a peg. Otherwise, they would not have sent so many Tier 2 experts from the studio.

The members of Grim Reaper Studio also agreed with Bing Yu's words, expressing confusion about Qing Tian Bai Yun's decision. They didn't understand why they had to go back so soon after arriving. After all, they were all Tier 2 experts, and their combined destructive power was much greater than that of the thousand-man expert teams of those big guilds.

"Do you know how many Tier 2 experts there are in the Zero Wing Residence now?" Qing Tian Bai Yun turned to Bing Yu and asked.

"The number of Tier 2 experts? This is the Zero Wing Guild's headquarters, so there should be dozens of them," Bing Yu thought for a while and gave an estimated value in her mind. After all, the current first-rate guilds only had a hundred or so Tier 2 classes, and half of them at the headquarters would already be a lot.

"Dozens?" Qing Tian Bai Yun cast a disdainful look. "If there were only dozens, do you think I would still let them go back?"

"Could there be hundreds of them?" Zhan Fu asked in slight surprise.

"Wrong! It's five hundred!" Qing Tian Bai Yun spread out his palm and said.

"Five hundred? How is that possible? Isn't the Zero Wing Guild comparable to a first-rate guild? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Bing Yu instinctively didn't dare to believe it when she heard this.

This number of Tier 2 classes was no joke. It was simply comparable to those weaker super forces.

"I wish I had seen it wrong," Qing Tian Bai Yun said with a wry smile. "But I've used skills to observe several times, and they are indeed all Tier 2 classes."

"Doesn't this Zero Wing Guild have no backing?" Zhan Fu said in shock.

Five hundred Tier 2 classes. This number was simply too astonishing!

Dealing with their fifty Tier 2 classes would be a piece of cake. Probably only the three of them, the team leaders, could escape. Everyone else would die.

It was really hard to imagine that Ninth Heaven, a second-rate guild with no backing, could get in good with a thigh as big as Zero Wing Guild. Now Grim Reaper Studio would really have to think carefully if they wanted to move against Ninth Heaven.

"The plan now needs to be changed. The three of us will investigate the Zero Wing Guild. Try not to have any conflicts with the Zero Wing Guild," Qing Tian Bai Yun said slowly. "As for this matter, I will personally report to the chief team leader. Everyone else, go back now."

When the members of Grim Reaper Studio heard what Qing Tian Bai Yun said, they all disbanded and returned to the Fairy Empire according to Qing Tian Bai Yun's instructions.

In a luxurious villa in the Fairy Empire, Rong Ji Yiqiu, the chief team leader who was discussing with the team leaders of Grim Reaper Studio, also received a message from Qing Tian Bai Yun.

"Five hundred Tier 2 classes?" Rong Ji Yiqiu stroked his white beard, his expression becoming serious. Although he had expected that Zero Wing would dare to interfere, it naturally had extraordinary aspects, but he didn't expect it to reach this level. "It seems that our plan has to be put on hold."

"Chief team leader, what about our cooperation with those people?" Several team leaders nearby couldn't help but ask worriedly when they heard the chief team leader say that they were going to stop the plan. "Those people won't stop, and if we miss this opportunity..."

"Money can never be earned completely, but many times making a wrong decision can cost people their lives!" Rong Ji Yiqiu waved his hand, still planning to watch the show from the sidelines for now. "You all go and tell the people below to keep a low profile in their recent activities. We can just use the Zero Wing Guild to weigh whether they have the ability to step into our area. I believe the results will appear soon. There's no need for us to rush now."

Meanwhile, Shi Feng in the Zero Wing City Residence did not know that the five hundred Tier 2 members he had gathered to attack Karna Island had not only caused Grim Reaper Studio to give up on revenge against Zero Wing Guild, but also caused Grim Reaper Studio to abandon its original plan.

"Guild Leader, the people and supplies are all ready. As for the Thunder Island, Feng Qianyu and the others have already made arrangements and can set off at any time," Aqua Rose walked to Shi Feng's side and said.

"Alright, now everyone teleport to Thunder Island," Shi Feng nodded.

Going to Karna Island in the Sea of Death was not easy, because it belonged to the inner area of the Sea of Death, which could be said to be very dangerous. A single slip could be fatal. Although he knew that there was a source ore vein on Karna Island, he ultimately knew little about the sea, so he needed Feng Qianyu and others who often worked at sea to lead the way. After all, Feng Qianyu had been active in the Sea of Death and was more familiar with the Sea of Death than he was, which could avoid many unnecessary dangers.

Soon, the Zero Wing members directly went to Thunder Island through the guild teleportation scroll.

When they arrived at the city on Thunder Island, the Zero Wing members were amazed.

Because this city erected on the island was simply like a fairyland on earth. Not only was the scenery charming, but the number of players on the street was also surprisingly large. Even the empire's capital city could not compare to its prosperity. Players above level 56 could be seen everywhere, and there were quite a few who had reached level 58.

Shi Feng was also quite surprised by this. He didn't expect Thunder Island to have developed to this point.

Under Qing Huang's guidance, the Zero Wing members quickly arrived at the harbor of Thunder Island. Speedboats and warships were docked at the harbor, and the number of them was as many as several thousand, making people dazzled.

Just as Qing Huang had prepared a speedboat to take the Zero Wing members to the interior of the Sea of Death, a member of the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion suddenly ran over.

"Qing Huang-jie, something bad has happened! Pavilion Master discovered a legacy ruin on Barbarian God Island, but the news was leaked and now it's been blocked by the people from the Miracle Guild. Now the entire Barbarian God Island is surrounded. We want to go and rescue them immediately, but the people from Jiulong Huang are deliberately making things difficult for us and won't let us use the guild's warships to break through."

"Damn it! Jiulong Huang must have told the news to Miracle, trying to deliberately sabotage our plan."

Hearing the report from her subordinate, Qing Huang frowned, her expression slightly anxious.

The location of Barbarian God Island was special. It was impossible to use any return scrolls or teleportation scrolls. To enter and exit the island, you could only use boats. If it was blocked, there was no way out except to fight head-on. And this time, all the experts from their Phoenix Pavilion had gone to Barbarian God Island. If they were all wiped out, it would be a heavy blow to their Phoenix Pavilion.

"Guild Leader Black Flame, something happened suddenly, so I can't send you over first. I must organize a fleet to go to Barbarian God Island to rescue them as soon as possible. I hope you can understand," Qing Huang said anxiously to Shi Feng.

"Barbarian God Island has appeared?" Shi Feng was slightly surprised when he heard this. In his memory, Barbarian God Island was not something that could appear now. Then he nodded, "Since Pavilion Master Qianyu is in trouble, that's natural. As an ally, is there anything we can do to help?"
