Chapter 1 Gathering Information

"Qingxue, I want you to have someone compile a detailed report on the Scarlet Heaven Guild, especially focusing on the information regarding the guild towns they control. The more detailed, the better," Shi Feng immediately said to Bai Qingxue.

"Detailed information on the guild towns?" Bai Qingxue was slightly puzzled, but she quickly realized the possibility. She couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "Guild Leader, you want this information... you can't be planning to attack Scarlet Heaven's towns, are you?"

"Attack Scarlet Heaven's guild towns?" Shi Feng shook his head and said with a smile, "You're wrong. I plan to attack all the guild towns controlled by Scarlet Heaven Guild!"

If it were before, Shi Feng might not have had many ways to deal with Scarlet Heaven Guild's actions in Heart Lake City, and he would have been forced to slowly wear them down.

But things were different now.

He was rich now!

Not only had he made a fortune at the Zero Wing Auction, but the population explosion in Stone Forest Town, along with the arena and auction house, had brought in incredible revenue. Almost every moment, players were becoming members of the arena and auction house.

In addition to the ten thousand magic crystals just contributed by Yan Tianxing, he now had a total of over one hundred and ninety thousand magic crystals.

During the battle against Tianzang Guild, he only had a little over fifty thousand magic crystals due to insufficient preparation, which made it impossible to unleash the full power of the war weapons. If he had enough magic crystals, he could have easily won the battle.

Now he had more than one hundred and ninety thousand magic crystals, and the number was constantly increasing. After all, each additional member of the auction house earned him ten magic crystals, and there were already over fifteen thousand players who had become members of the Zero Wing Auction. As time went on, exceeding one hundred thousand or even two hundred thousand would be a piece of cake.

Scarlet Heaven Guild dared to provoke him now; they were simply courting death.

Not to mention a second-rate guild like Scarlet Heaven, he could take down even a first-rate guild's towns.

"Attack all of Scarlet Heaven's towns?" Everyone in the private room was shocked by Shi Feng's words.

Every guild town was an absolutely crucial location for a guild, and the defenses and players stationed there were no joke. Taking one down was not an easy task and required a lot of preparation. To say they would attack now, and even take down all the guild towns controlled by Scarlet Heaven Guild...

It was madness!

"Qingxue, have all the main force groups of each branch prepare themselves. Also, spread this news so all the guilds in the Black Dragon Empire know. As soon as the information on Scarlet Heaven is gathered, we'll move out immediately!" Shi Feng instructed.

"No secrecy?" Bai Qingxue was stunned.

When others attacked guild towns, they wanted the enemy to be caught off guard, increasing their chances of success. But Shi Feng was doing the opposite, directly announcing that he was going to attack them and telling them to prepare themselves...

However, since the Guild Leader had ordered it, Bai Qingxue could only comply.

Although Scarlet Heaven Guild had Nine Dragon Emperor secretly backing them, Zero Wing Guild could mobilize all their elites and easily take down the towns controlled by Scarlet Heaven Guild, as they had an overwhelming advantage in the number of experts and the quality of elite members. However, doing so would consume a lot of Zero Wing Guild's resources.

Just like that, before all the players in the venue had left, Bai Qingxue had her subordinates spread the news that Zero Wing Guild was going to attack Scarlet Heaven's guild towns in Heart Lake City.

Instantly, a massive wave of shock spread throughout the entire Black Dragon Empire!

"What's going on? Zero Wing Guild is actually going to attack Scarlet Heaven Guild!"

"Didn't Scarlet Heaven Guild just lose a bet to Zero Wing Guild? Is Zero Wing Guild going to completely annihilate them? That's too ruthless!"

"That's not right! I heard that Scarlet Heaven Guild secretly mobilized some third-rate guild members to cause trouble near Hidden Mist Town, clearly not wanting Zero Wing Guild to take Hidden Mist Town. I guess Zero Wing Guild got angry because of that."

"This isn't wise. Guild towns are not that easy to conquer. Moreover, most of Zero Wing Guild's strength is in Star-Moon Kingdom. It will be even harder to take down Scarlet Heaven Guild's towns."

...

The players on the official website forum were discussing this heatedly, and they were not optimistic about Zero Wing Guild's attack on Scarlet Heaven Guild.

Although Zero Wing Guild had a branch in Heart Lake City, its strength was ultimately limited, far below the Zero Wing in Star-Moon Kingdom. Transmitting players from Star-Moon Kingdom to Heart Lake City in the Black Dragon Empire was not cheap. Moreover, Scarlet Heaven Guild had signed a defense alliance agreement with four other second-rate guilds. If Scarlet Heaven Guild was attacked, the other four second-rate guilds would assist them.

Even if a first-rate guild native to the Black Dragon Empire wanted to conquer Scarlet Heaven Guild's town, it would not be easy. Even if they could conquer it, the cost would be something that first-rate guilds would be unwilling to pay.

"Hahaha, Zero Wing Guild is really desperate. Knowing that Hidden Mist Town is hopeless, they resorted to this. Does Zero Wing Guild really think our Scarlet Heaven Guild's towns are just decorations?" Chi Huo Hu, who had already returned to the guild residence, sneered upon seeing this news.

He had originally prepared for a war of attrition with Zero Wing Guild, but now it seemed that all his previous preparations had been in vain.

Although their Scarlet Heaven Guild's two guild towns were not large, they were the two towns closest to the ore resource maps and herb resource maps, and they were used as resource warehouses for their five second-rate guilds. Therefore, they had spent a lot of gold coins to build them.

There were eight turrets alone, in addition to magic barriers and other war weapons. Even if two hundred thousand elite troops came, they would not be able to shake them, not to mention that the two towns had temporary outposts for the four second-rate guilds, and the players from the four second-rate guilds could provide support at any time.

Even if Zero Wing Guild mobilized all its elites, they would not be able to conquer the towns.

"Guild Leader, Nine Dragon Emperor just sent a message saying that he will send two hundred-man expert teams to garrison the two towns, and they will also bring six goblin cannons," Gu Cheng came over to report. "Nine Dragon Emperor also said that if we can make Zero Wing Guild look good this time, he will not pursue the previous failure, and our Scarlet Heaven will continue to be the leader of the five guilds."

"Tell the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion people to tell Nine Dragon Emperor to rest assured. Unless the sun rises in the west, Zero Wing Guild will never be able to conquer our Scarlet Heaven Guild's towns. Don't even think about stepping into the towns, let alone conquering them," Chi Huo Hu said with a confident smile.

Meanwhile, in the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence in Black Dragon Imperial City, Feng Qianyu was shocked to receive this news. She did not expect Zero Wing Guild to take such a crazy action. She immediately contacted Shi Feng.

"Guild Leader Black Flame, are you really going to lead people to attack Scarlet Heaven's guild towns?" Feng Qianyu looked at the stern and composed Shi Feng on the screen and wanted to confirm.

"That's right," Shi Feng nodded.

"Please abandon this operation immediately. Scarlet Heaven Guild is backed by Nine Dragon Emperor, and those two guild towns are resource warehouses that Nine Dragon Emperor prepared for his subordinates. To this end, Nine Dragon Emperor even secretly had his Shadow Dragon Legion stationed in the two towns," Feng Qianyu explained.

The Shadow Dragon Legion was one of Nine Dragon Emperor's three trump card legions. Among them, the War Dragon Legion was the strongest, led by Long Wu. However, the Shadow Dragon Legion's overall combat power was not much weaker than the War Dragon Legion, and it was better at large-scale battles, so Nine Dragon Emperor had the Shadow Dragon Legion secretly stationed in the two towns.

Now that Zero Wing Guild had only made a name for itself in the Black Dragon Empire, it was unwise to attack these two towns without accumulating enough strength.

"Shadow Dragon Legion?" Shi Feng also knew the name of this legion, but he just smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Pavilion Master Feng. I will be careful. I'm busy now. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

With that, Shi Feng hung up the communication.

"This Black Flame..." Feng Qianyu looked at Shi Feng's indifferent expression and even suspected that Shi Feng didn't know the power of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's trump card legion.

Any super force's trump card legion could destroy an elite army of tens of thousands of people, not to mention that the Shadow Dragon Legion was a legion specially strengthened for guild wars.

At this time, Bai Qingxue also handed over the information she had collected on the two towns to Shi Feng.
