Chapter 1 The Allure of Zero Wing

Inside the magnificent Zero Wing Pavilion, Youlan and the others were immediately captivated by the sight before them.

From the outside, the size of the Zero Wing Pavilion was definitely no match for the main headquarters built by those super forces, but the interior seemed like another space entirely, far larger than it appeared from the outside.

The huge front lobby on the first floor was the size of a soccer field. Guild members could temporarily rest and chat here, and many people rented the guild's private spaces for rest at the front desk. Next to the front desk lobby was an even larger mission hall. Many guild members were accepting missions, and high-level missions and high-level team missions were constantly rotating on the large screens hanging from the ceiling, so numerous that it was dazzling.

"Is this a three-star guild?" Youlan looked at the large screens hanging in the mission area, a wry smile involuntarily appearing on her lips.

Hell Palace desperately tried to increase the guild's reputation, only to have the number of high-level missions at the guild's residence increase to five or six hundred per day, and the number of team missions to just over a hundred. This caused the members of the guild to scramble frantically, and many core members couldn't even get one high-level mission every day, but Zero Wing was different.

The number of high-level missions was simply overflowing, as high as two thousand two hundred, and there were more than four hundred team missions. Even the guild's elite members had the opportunity to get high-level missions.

Ordinary guild missions were fine, as they rewarded more money, but high-level missions were different. They had a certain chance of obtaining rare items, and the monetary rewards after completing the missions were even greater, which could also increase the guild's reputation.

With so many high-level guild missions and team missions, Zero Wing could allow more guild members to develop. Over time, the gap between the members of the guilds would become larger and larger.

"This is where you go to complete the guild joining procedures. You just need to register here." Shi Feng led Youlan and the others to the guild registration desk. "As for your treatment level after joining the guild, you need to accumulate a certain amount of guild points and pass the corresponding level test before you can be promoted. However, since I actively invited you to join, the accumulation of guild points doesn't matter. As long as you can pass the corresponding level test, that's fine."

"Currently, to become an elite member of Zero Wing, you need to reach the early stage of the fifth floor of the Trial Tower. As for becoming a core member, you need to reach the mid-stage of the sixth floor of the Trial Tower."

Upon hearing this, Youlan and the others couldn't help but gasp.

Reaching the fourth floor of the Trial Tower was considered a master in the eyes of ordinary players, and reaching the fifth floor of the Trial Tower was currently recognized as the level of a master, but Zero Wing Guild required reaching the fifth floor to be eligible to become an elite member, and the core members were even more terrifying, with the mid-stage of the sixth floor of the Trial Tower...

Currently, the main force of first-rate guilds in God's Domain was only at this level. It should be known that the main force members of a guild were masters selected from the core members, and such standards were only the threshold for becoming a core member of Zero Wing Guild.

This made An Tong and the others feel ashamed.

Among these ten or so masters, only An Tong and Youlan met this standard, and the others were a bit behind. The best of them was only at the late stage of the fifth floor of the Trial Tower.

"Guild Leader Black Flame, what about us lifestyle players?" A dozen lifestyle players behind Youlan asked nervously.

They were lifestyle players, skilled in auxiliary occupations but not in combat.

"Don't worry. After joining the guild, there will also be a lifestyle player test, but this will be conducted at the Candlelight Trading Firm," Shi Feng explained.

Hearing Shi Feng say this, the dozen or so lifestyle players felt a little relieved. They were all high-level professionals cultivated by Youlan. They might not be good at combat, but in terms of the level of their lifestyle professions, they were definitely first-class.

However, Shi Feng's next sentence almost made them vomit blood.

"In terms of auxiliary occupations, reaching the advanced level can make you an official member of the Candlelight Trading Firm. If you want to become a core member, the actual success rate of producing advanced items needs to be around 30%."

It was well known in God's Domain that even for advanced professionals, the normal success rate of producing advanced items was only around 35%. The actual production success rate would definitely be much lower. Their actual success rate could reach 25%, which was already very good. After that, every additional 1% in the success rate would represent a significant gap in production skills. To increase that by 5% at once…

Youlan couldn't help but be surprised when she heard Shi Feng say this.

She felt it was a bit too exaggerated.

She wasn't unfamiliar with auxiliary occupations, because she had been in charge of the trading firm at Hell Palace and was quite familiar with the current state of auxiliary occupations in God's Domain. The dozen or so lifestyle players following her were definitely at the upper level among the lifestyle players in Hell Palace, not far from the top lifestyle players in Hell Palace. However, upon arriving at Zero Wing, it seemed that even the standards for core members couldn't be met.

"Oh, right, today happens to be the alchemist assessment. If any of you are alchemists, you can participate. I can take you to participate later. As long as you compete for the top ten, you can not only directly become core members, but also use a complete set of Dark-Gold-ranked alchemical equipment. In addition, the chief alchemist can enjoy the right to use the elementary meditation room for a long time. When you try to reach the grandmaster level, you can also go to Titan City," Shi Feng said.

Upon hearing this, the lifestyle players present couldn't help but feel envious, regretting that they weren't alchemists. If they were alchemists, they could totally compete.

"That's interesting. I wonder if this old man can also participate," an old man with white eyebrows slowly walked out from the crowd, looking at Shi Feng with a smile.

"Grandmaster Wu Ming, are you going to participate?" Youlan looked at the old man with white eyebrows, feeling surprised.

Grandmaster Wu Ming was very famous in the virtual gaming world. Back when he was still in Star-Moon Kingdom, he created the Fire Dragon Potion with just an intermediate alchemist level, allowing Alluring Smile to have the capital to compete with Candlelight Trading Firm back then. Now, Grandmaster Wu Ming was already an advanced alchemist, only one step away from becoming an alchemy grandmaster.

Wu Ming had never been interested in competing with others, but now he was actually taking the initiative to ask, which was really surprising.

"Yes, although we have obtained the protection of Zero Wing, we can't let these people in Zero Wing underestimate us," Wu Ming nodded, whispering to Youlan.

"Of course, no problem. After we finish the assessment here, we can go over there."

Shi Feng glanced at Wu Ming, knowing something about Wu Ming's name. Although he wasn't very famous in the early stages of God's Domain, almost everyone knew him ten years later. He was an alchemy grandmaster only one step away from being an alchemy master.

He was the one who developed God's Blood, a grandmaster-level potion that even alchemy grandmasters admired!

God's Blood was a name that Wu Ming gave himself. It was a very powerful grandmaster-level berserk potion, and this potion could be stacked with burst skills without side effects, so Wu Ming called it God's Blood.

At that time, even super guilds offered sky-high prices to buy the formula, but Wu Ming had a strange personality and only sold one, which was used to exchange for alchemical equipment and alchemical materials, causing the super guilds to fight for it frantically.

Soon, after Youlan and the others showed the system scores of the Trial Tower, Shi Feng immediately took Youlan and Wu Ming and others to the Candlelight Trading Firm. As for the masters like An Tong, Shi Feng handed them all over to the hundred-man master team led by Sword Shadow and Bangu to go to the level 45 hell-level hundred-man team dungeon to improve their equipment.

In less than ten minutes, Shi Feng and Youlan and the others appeared in front of the Candlelight Trading Firm building.

Compared to the Zero Wing Residence, the Candlelight Trading Firm was much taller. It could be said to be the tallest player shop in White River City. Because the barrier of the teleportation magic array was gone, there were more players coming to the Candlelight Trading Firm than ever before, almost comparable to the auction house of the royal city.

After Youlan and the others arrived here, they soon discovered that there were a lot of lifestyle players coming to the Candlelight Trading Firm. They discovered dozens of advanced professionals just waiting in line to sign up. Such a thing had never happened even in Hell Palace...
