Chapter 15 The Calm Before the Storm

While Shi Feng was in a deep slumber, recuperating, White Mist Canyon became an absolute forbidden zone for players.

White Mist Canyon was a special area where Return Scrolls could not be used.

After Anubis's Gatekeeper emerged from the Starfall Land, he would kill any player he saw. Countless players trying to farm the Warfire Set were slaughtered.

Although the major guilds had tried to gather people to deal with Anubis's Gatekeeper, how could a Great Lord of Level 35 be so easily dealt with? After just a few uses of his Annihilation Spear, the major guilds of White River City recognized their mistake, and all retreated, never again setting foot in White Mist Canyon.

Because the Great Lord was simply on a different level from the High Lords they usually raided.

High Lords had quite a few AoE skills, which caused players a lot of trouble, but they didn't use them very often, giving the players some breathing room. But what about Great Lords?

Without a word, he would unleash large-scale destruction magic, and use it consecutively. Besides large-scale destruction magic, it was still large-scale destruction magic. Even tens of thousands of elite players wouldn't be enough to die.

Fortunately, Anubis's Gatekeeper did not leave White Mist Canyon, but simply roamed around inside.

White Mist Canyon immediately became a player forbidden zone, no longer a gold mine. As for players who wanted to farm the Warfire Set, they all gave up. White Mist Canyon was already very dangerous, and now there was an Anubis's Gatekeeper patrolling. Anyone who encountered him would surely die, and the drop rate of the Warfire Set was too low. Many people had originally planned to give up, but now, with the appearance of Anubis's Gatekeeper, everyone became even more convinced of their decision.

However, the matter of White Mist Canyon was only a small thing, because God's Domain had undergone its second system upgrade. The difficulty of increasing city reputation had been slightly reduced, so the major guilds all began to strive for city reputation. At the same time, they secretly collected gold coins. As long as their reputation was sufficient, they would be prepared to buy city land with all their might, to prepare for future development.

Invisibly, the major guilds of God's Domain began to compete secretly, all thinking of ways to earn gold coins.

There were only a few ways to earn gold coins. The first was from monster drops, the second was from quest rewards, the third was from player trading, and the fourth was to sell some trash items to NPCs.

The guilds' main ways to earn money were monster drops and quest rewards, but quest rewards were too little for guilds without a guild residence. Monster drops became the only and fastest way to earn money, so resource-rich areas became the focus of competition among the major guilds. Free players simply had no chance to go to those places to farm gold.

But at this critical juncture, something happened that shocked all the players in White River City. The two major guilds in White River City, Zero Wing and Alluring Summer, actually started a full-scale war. They both announced on the system that the other guild was an enemy guild. If they met on the maps in the wild, there would be a battle. Because the two guilds were enemies, killing each other would not result in a red name, so they fought without hesitation.

Other guilds were quietly developing, wishing they could send all their manpower to farm gold, but these two oddball guilds, Zero Wing and Alluring Summer, suddenly became mortal enemies.

Of course, all the guilds in White River City were extremely happy about this, all sitting back and watching the tigers fight, waiting to reap the benefits, wishing the two guilds would destroy each other.

After all, this kind of all-out war would have a great impact on both guilds.

On the first day of the full-scale war between Zero Wing and Alluring Summer, the number of members from both sides who died in the wild exceeded a thousand...

These people were fighting for the guild, so the guild had set up a reward system. As long as they killed a player from the enemy guild, the system would automatically record it. Contribution points were awarded based on the number of kills recorded. Moreover, the amount of contribution points received depended on the rank of the enemy guild member killed.

The higher the rank of the enemy, or the more members of one's own guild they killed, the more contribution points one would receive. Contribution points could be exchanged for guild points after returning to the guild. Guild members could use guild points to exchange for items in the guild warehouse.

This was undoubtedly a competition of the foundation and financial resources of both sides, to see who could hold out until the end.

In a bar in White River City, nearly a hundred players were drinking, chatting, talking and laughing, discussing their personal gains today, and talking about the experts on Tianji Pavilion's ranking list.

It could be said that the bars in God's Domain had long become places for free players to chat and exchange information.

"Do you guys know why the two powerful guilds in White River City, Zero Wing and Alluring Summer, suddenly started a full-scale war?" A level 20 young ranger said mysteriously, drinking beer while looking at the priestess next to him.

"Do you know?" The priestess blinked, somewhat disbelieving.

"Of course. One of my brothers is an elite member of Alluring Summer. He even personally witnessed the reason for the full-scale war between the two guilds," the young ranger said proudly. "I was shocked when I heard my brother say this."

"Then tell me, okay?" The priestess asked curiously.

The young ranger's voice was not low, and the players in the bar could all hear it. They all pricked up their ears.

Zero Wing and Alluring Summer were hegemons in White River City. The war between the two sides would have a great impact on White River City, so naturally everyone wanted to know why the two guilds had started a full-scale war.

The young ranger said smugly, "I'll tell you. Actually, people from Alluring Summer and people from Zero Wing had a conflict in White Mist Canyon. As a result, Black Flame killed Alluring Summer's hundred-man team, leaving not one alive. The higher-ups of Alluring Summer were furious, so they secretly ambushed Black Flame, the guild leader of Zero Wing, and sent a full two thousand elites."

"Alluring Summer even invited a very powerful expert. If Anubis's Gatekeeper hadn't appeared, Black Flame might have been killed. The guild leader being ambushed is a great humiliation for Zero Wing, so naturally they wouldn't let it go, so they started a full-scale war with Alluring Summer."

The players in the bar thought it made sense.

The guild's face was not to be compromised, and the two guilds had been enemies for more than a day or two. It was obvious that this ambush was the last straw.

"I wonder which guild will win this all-out war?"

"I think it should be Alluring Summer. Alluring Summer owns Maple Leaf City and has huge financial support behind it. Didn't you see how good the benefits Alluring Summer offers? The credit points received by the guild elites every month make people drool. How can Zero Wing compare?"

"It should be Zero Wing Guild. After all, this is White River City. Zero Wing has a guild residence, and there are many experts. You don't know how good the benefits of the guild hall are. The most popular one is the lounge. Renting the lounge can accumulate a lot of double experience points, and Zero Wing's guild warehouse makes all the guilds in White River City drool. There are many Level 25 equipment in it. Many players who transferred to Alluring Summer regret why they didn't stay in Zero Wing."

For a time, the people in the bar began to talk about the issue of which of the two guilds would win.

However, in a corner of the bar, a six-person team sneered at this.

"It seems that Black Flame is nothing more than that. Captain, is it really necessary for us to look for him?" A level 26 swordsman curled his lips.

"Find him. Only by testing him can we know if he has the qualifications."
