Orc Armory.
"Guild Leader, we've been wiped out four times and lost 20% of our experience. If we keep dying, we probably won't even be able to get through the dungeon entrance. Should we just give up?"
"Alright, everyone take a break. Then we'll go to a 10-man dungeon to improve our equipment."
Only Me is Arrogant also seemed a little downcast at this moment. He had tried every method, but ultimately the damage output just wasn't enough. He had been so confident before, and now he felt a bit reckless. Luckily, the Assassin's Alliance probably wouldn't be able to clear it either, or he would have lost face big time.
Just as the Dark Star members were resting.
Suddenly, two system announcements from the Assassin's Alliance rang in everyone's ears.
The Dark Star members thought they had misheard, so they all brought up their system announcement bars. The large characters on them were exceptionally clear, confirming that the Assassin's Alliance had indeed achieved the First Clear of the Orc Armory on Hard Mode.
This left everyone in silence.
Why was the gap between the two guilds so large? Weren't they supposed to be stronger than the Assassin's Alliance?
How could it be that they hadn't even gotten past the first boss, while the Assassin's Alliance had obtained the First Clear...
When Only Me is Arrogant saw this, it was as if he had been slapped hard twice across the face, his cheeks burning with pain.
Especially when he thought of what Shi Feng had said before.
If those nobodies you look down on suddenly get the First Clear of the Orc Armory on Hard Mode before you, then what are you? Aren't you even worse than animals?
These words had now turned into sharp swords, constantly tearing apart Only Me is Arrogant's arrogant pride.
Only Me is Arrogant never thought that something like this would happen.
However, Only Me is Arrogant wasn't stupid. He didn't think the Assassin's Alliance had cleared it on their own. The only possibility was because of Shi Feng.
Just who was this Shi Feng?
In fact, it wasn't just the Dark Star members who were shocked. When the announcement appeared throughout the entire White River City region, it attracted the attention of many guilds.
The Assassin's Alliance's status in White River City was self-evident. Their development speed surpassed first-rate guilds, but they were suppressed by Dark Star's reputation. However, the Assassin's Alliance didn't have any good results in team dungeons, so their position was awkward.
Now, with the First Clear of the Orc Armory on Hard Mode, their reputation greatly increased, making the Assassin's Alliance truly worthy of its name, and their development speed would definitely be even faster.
White River City's Adventurer's Association.
"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, the Assassin's Alliance got the First Clear of the Orc Armory on Hard Mode!" Lin Feilong suddenly rushed into Shadow's guild hall, saying with a face full of joy.
In God's Domain, as long as a guild registered with the Adventurer's Association, each Adventurer's Association in every major city would provide the guild with a free lounge for meetings, rest, and accepting quests.
"What are you shouting for? Who doesn't know about this?" Zhou Yuhu, sitting in a corner of the lounge, glared at Lin Feilong who had rushed in.
"Of course I know that, but there's more to it than meets the eye." Lin Feilong glanced at Zhou Yuhu, then shifted his gaze to Zhang Luowei, who was sitting on the Guild Leader's throne.
More to it than meets the eye?
"Speak." This made Zhang Luowei, who was originally indifferent, somewhat interested.
The last time Lin Feilong returned to report on the matter of recruiting Shi Feng, Zhang Luowei almost jumped up in anger.
The requirement for joining Shadow was actually to become the Guild Leader? Did he not take him seriously at all?
And he even wanted 60% of the guild's shares in one go. What did he think they were?
Did he really think they were suckers?
What was even more shocking was that Lin Feilong even suggested that everyone recruit Shi Feng...
Therefore, Lin Feilong was also disliked by Zhang Luowei, and he suffered a lot of cold treatment from the other members of the guild.
"Brother Zhang, look at the Assassin's Alliance's First Clear list. Ye Feng's name is on it." Lin Feilong opened the system bar, pointed to the Assassin's Alliance's First Clear list, and said excitedly.
"So?" Zhou Yuhu smiled dismissively. If Ye Feng really joined Shadow, then he wouldn't need to stay in Shadow any longer.
"The Assassin's Alliance is a dignified second-rate guild. They were clearly exploring the Orc Armory, so why would they let an outsider join? The Assassin's Alliance hadn't gotten a single First Clear of a level 10 team dungeon for so long, but now they've gotten the First Clear of a level 20 team dungeon on Hard Mode. Why?"
"It must be related to Ye Feng. Ye Feng had a close relationship with the Assassin's Alliance before. The Assassin's Alliance was originally just a second-rate guild, but after arriving in White River City, they developed like crazy and surpassed many first-rate guilds. Why?"
"Ye Feng was the first to enter White River City, and his White River City Guide sold very well. It's very likely that Ye Feng sold the White River City Guide to the Assassin's Alliance in advance, which allowed the Assassin's Alliance to be prepared and develop rapidly as soon as they entered White River City."
"Now, he's even helped the Assassin's Alliance get the First Clear. Whether it's reputation or foundation, they're standing at the forefront of White River City, surpassing many first-rate guilds. This is enough to show Ye Feng's ability. If he can join our Shadow, within a month, our Shadow will definitely have a place in the entire White River City."
Lin Feilong had thoroughly investigated Shi Feng a long time ago, but the more he looked, the more shocked he became, and the more he analyzed, the more fearful he became. Shi Feng's power completely exceeded his imagination, which made him even more determined to cling to Shi Feng's golden thigh.
What would Zhang Luowei be then?
What would Lan Feilong be?
"Don't even think about it. If you dare to mention Ye Feng again in the future, or tell Lan Hailong about this matter, don't blame me for being impolite." Zhang Luowei's face suddenly turned green, and his tone was filled with killing intent. "Ye Feng is just a clown. The dignified Assassin's Alliance is a top second-rate guild with such a deep foundation. The Guild Leader, Silent Blade, has been famous for a long time and has single-handedly developed the Assassin's Alliance into what it is today. It's normal for them to achieve such results. What much role could that Ye Feng play?"
"In my opinion, the effect that Ye Feng had was, at most, just playing a minor role."
Being scolded by Zhang Luowei like this, Lin Feilong revealed a look of fear and quickly nodded, saying, "Yes, I understand, Brother Zhang. I will never mention it again."
However, Lin Feilong laughed in his heart.
Because he was even more certain of Shi Feng's strength, because Zhang Luowei already felt a great threat. Otherwise, how could he have said such a thing?
In fact, Lin Feilong had already told Lan Hailong these words, so he asked him to secretly contact Shi Feng.
When he achieved something in God's Domain, would he still be afraid of not making money?
With a large amount of wealth, would he still be afraid of Zhao Ruoxi not throwing herself into his arms, or afraid that her family wouldn't obediently agree?
Just as everyone was discussing the Assassin's Alliance's First Clear, Shi Feng had already changed into four pieces of the Windstalker Set and arrived at the White River City Library.
Compared to the dilapidated hut in Red Leaf Town, the White River City Library was a true library. Not only was it majestic and grand, but it was also beautiful and magnificent, like a Babylonian temple, located in the center of White River City.
The people entering and exiting the library were all nobles and magic-type NPCs from White River City, including quite a few Tier 2 classes. It wasn't a place where ordinary commoners could casually come.
And the Tier 3 Divine Official, Xia Lian, whom Shi Feng was looking for, was resting and recuperating inside.
