Chapter 1398 The Tide Turns

Star-Moon Kingdom, White River City.

Due to the sudden rise of Zero Wing City, many free players from the surrounding kingdoms gathered in front of the Zero Wing Guild's Residence, all hoping to join Zero Wing.

Although the situation between Zero Wing and Heaven's Burial was still unclear, with the development trend of Zero Wing City, surpassing Heaven's Burial's Ancient Rock City was only a matter of time.

After all, Zero Wing City's teleportation function and the rare items sold by the many NPC shops were simply too tempting.

Not only free players from Star-Moon Kingdom but also those from several surrounding kingdoms and well-known adventurer teams couldn't help but want to reside in Zero Wing City for a long time. The adventurer teams and guilds that hadn't seriously tried to snatch private residences in Zero Wing City at the previous auction were almost regretting it to death.

They even openly offered high prices for acquisitions, but no one was willing to sell.

While Zero Wing Guild's momentum continued to climb, Shi Feng was frantically manufacturing Demon Light Sets in Candlelight Trading Firm.

As a Level 50 Fine-Gold Equipment Set, the Demon Light six-piece set was extremely difficult to manufacture with complex procedures. However, as Shi Feng made more and more of them, he became more and more proficient. With the effect of the Tier 3 Abyssal Flame, the Thunderfire Purple Flame, the production speed also decreased significantly.

What a normal forging master would take nearly an hour to complete, Shi Feng now only needed forty minutes. Moreover, the actual success rate was as high as 60%. He could successfully produce six out of ten sets. Among the remaining four sets, although they were not successful, they were only of lower quality.

Originally Fine-Gold rank, due to some flaws in the procedure, they became only Secret-Silver or even Mysterious-Iron rank. Completely scrapped sets accounted for only about one-tenth.

Secret-Silver and Mysterious-Iron ranks seemed to be failures, but for current Level 50 expert players, they were still quite good equipment, not to mention that they were sets, half a grade higher than the same level of quality.

Shi Feng did not intend to keep this type of equipment a secret, so he threw it directly into the Guild Warehouse, keeping only the qualified products in his hand.

Just as Shi Feng was preparing to make the twenty-seventh Demon Light Set, Aqua Rose suddenly contacted him.

"Guild Leader, Heaven's Burial has made a move. Lei Jingyang of Heaven's Burial is leading a large number of Fiends and expert players to block our people in high-resource maps. There are too many of them, and we are no match at all. Many Guild experts have died. I have already notified them to retreat quickly, but Heaven's Burial seems to be prepared and it won't be easy to retreat." Aqua Rose sent some video data to Shi Feng with some anxiety, her expression unspeakably heavy.

In the video, experts from Heaven's Burial were leading twenty or thirty Lord-ranked or higher Fiends, attacking Zero Wing Guild members everywhere.

Although Fiends were not as defensively strong and thick-blooded as Evil Beasts, they were highly intelligent. Even a Level 70 Lord-ranked Fiend was enough to give a team of twenty experts a headache, not to mention twenty or thirty Lord-ranked or higher Fiends. A hundred-man expert team would be basically wiped out when encountered, and only a thousand-man team could resist them slightly.

To truly kill these Fiends, only a hundred-man expert team led by the Conqueror Squad or a hundred-man expert team led by Tier 2 classes would be able to do it, and it would be quite troublesome to kill them. If they faced too many, they would even need to activate their burst skills.

However, there were more than four or five thousand Fiends. The Conqueror Squad and the expert teams led by Tier 2 classes were already overwhelmed, let alone rescue anyone.

In just less than half an hour, the number of Zero Wing Guild members who died exceeded five thousand...

"Heaven's Burial is really cautious." Shi Feng frowned as he watched.

Within Star-Moon Kingdom, the Evil God's Temple was being suppressed by the Kingdom's army. As soon as it was discovered, they would definitely go to suppress it as soon as possible.

Because of the Orc Empire, the Kingdom's army was scattered in many places within Star-Moon Kingdom, so it would be much easier to borrow the power of the Kingdom's army.

However, Heaven's Burial only let the highly mobile Fiends attack, and they were acting separately. Even if the Kingdom's army appeared, they probably wouldn't be able to kill many before the other Fiends had already escaped.

It was almost impossible to cause heavy damage to the Fiend army.

Moreover, the Fiend army was very powerful in the wild. It was really not something that current players could contend with, or rather, it was not something that a single guild could contend with.

No wonder they were able to wreak havoc on a huge empire in the previous life, almost destroying it.

In the past, when Zero Wing Guild fought against Evil Beasts and Fiend armies, they had an absolute geographical advantage. They had defensive magic arrays, turret assistance, and NPC guards and NPC escorts, so the battle was so easy. Now that they didn't have these advantages, only Tier 2 classes could truly contend against Lord-ranked Fiends one-on-one. Other Tier 1 classes were simply being trampled when facing Lord-ranked Fiends.

As long as the Fiend army guarded the wilderness like this, Zero Wing Guild members would not be able to level up and adventure in the wild at all.

"Hahaha, Brother Lei, these Fiends are really amazing! It's so refreshing to fight them. Zero Wing Guild's expert teams are simply vulnerable in front of our Fiend army, they can only escape." A burly ranger looked at the Zero Wing team that was collapsing in the distance and couldn't help laughing.

Only less than forty Lord-ranked Fiends, and the leader was only a Great Lord-ranked Fiend, were enough to make the hundred-man expert team led by the Conqueror Squad retreat constantly and fall into a bitter battle. This was completely unimaginable before. Moreover, this was even after the Conqueror Squad members had activated their burst skills, otherwise the Conqueror Squad's team would have been wiped out long ago.

"Keep an eye on them and don't let them escape!" Lei Jingyang smiled indifferently.

He had a deep understanding of the combat power of a single Fiend.

In a one-on-one fight, he himself was no match without activating his burst skills. He could only defend passively, let alone a group of Fiends attacking together.

Perhaps this attrition war with Zero Wing Guild was evenly matched, but the final result of the two guilds was determined from the beginning. Zero Wing Guild had no chance of winning at all.

The news that Heaven's Burial Guild had sent out a Fiend army quickly spread to the ears of the major forces. Even super guilds couldn't help but feel numb looking at the Fiend army all over the map.

"It seems that Heaven's Burial Guild has accumulated a powerful enough Fiend army. Even if Zero Wing Guild's Zero Wing City rises, Zero Wing Guild will have to end here." Yuan Tiexin looked at the latest intelligence he had collected and sighed slightly.

The intelligence pointed out that Heaven's Burial Guild had sent twenty High Great Lord-ranked Fiends, each of which was a nightmare for players, not to mention that there were more than five hundred Great Lord-ranked Fiends. The weakest of the other Fiends were all Lord-ranked, numbering in the thousands. They were simply invincible in the wild. Only the Kingdom's army could kill them, but by the time the Kingdom's army arrived, the Fiend army would probably have run away without a trace.

If Zero Wing Guild had agreed to their Heaven's Secret Pavilion's conditions at the beginning, there might have been a solution, but now there was no chance at all.

Just as the Zero Wing members withdrew from the high-resource leveling map, Heaven's Burial Guild also released an announcement on the official website forum of Star-Moon Kingdom.

Does Zero Wing Guild have the guts to fight?

This sentence immediately stirred up a thousand waves.

"Hahaha, they don't even dare to fight. Zero Wing Guild is nothing more than this. They even dare to call themselves the number one guild in Star-Moon Kingdom."

"Do the people of Zero Wing have the guts to fight in the wild map? If you have the ability, don't hide in the city!"

The people of Heaven's Burial Guild kept clamoring on the forum, thinking about getting the Zero Wing people to come out and fight quickly.

Because of this, the people of Zero Wing Guild were also extremely depressed. It was not an option to fight or not to fight. As long as they went to the wild, they would definitely be besieged by the Fiend army and would surely die. If they didn't fight, they would be looked down upon by the world.

"Guild Leader, now that the people in the guild are being provoked by Heaven's Burial, many people are saying that they want to go out and fight, but if they go out..." Aqua Rose asked helplessly, "Is there no way to deal with those Fiends?"

Heaven's Burial Guild's move was really disgusting. If they didn't find a way to solve it, Zero Wing Guild's reputation would definitely plummet, and the Guild's morale would be completely destroyed.

"Heaven's Burial Guild really dares to bully Zero Wing for not having any means! Since they want to fight, then I'll let them fight to their heart's content!" Shi Feng said with a cold smile.
