Chapter 281 Dead?

“Dead?”

Everyone looked in disbelief at Great Chieftain Threya, who had fallen onto the Obelisk like a ragdoll.

Threya had chased over 200,000 elite players around like dogs, but now he had been instantly killed, as if everything that had happened before was just a nightmare.

“What exactly did he do?” Bai Qingxue also found it hard to believe this was real.

The mighty Threya had become a plaything in Shi Feng’s hands…

Coming and going at will, treating the major guilds as nothing. This was even more terrifying than purely defeating them with strength. Just this alone would probably make all the guilds in the Star-Moon Kingdom wary.

Just as everyone was shocked by what was happening before their eyes, some of the guild executives reacted.

“Not good, the Town Token!”

The Town Token was something that only Great Chieftains dropped. Now that Great Chieftain Threya was dead, it would naturally drop the Town Token. As long as they obtained the Town Token, they could turn Stone Forest Town into a guild town. It would be protected by the kingdom for a period of time, allowing them to freely manage everything in the town, open shops, and establish guild residences.

Moreover, the leveling maps near Stone Forest Town were all between levels 30 and 50, so players would come here to level up in the future. It was definitely a treasure trove, not to mention that the Stoneclaw Mountains were not far away, making it incredibly convenient.

“Everyone, charge over there! We must seize the Town Token!”

The executives of the major guilds gave their orders one after another, which were also the instructions of the guild leaders.

Now that it had come to this, the major guilds had suffered heavy losses. If they didn't manage to get the Town Token, wouldn't all their efforts be for nothing?

Under the unified command of the major guilds, everyone rushed towards Stone Forest Town like madmen, determined to kill Shi Feng and obtain the Town Token.

Bai Qingxue’s side also reacted and immediately shouted, “Everyone, protect Guild Leader Black Flame and retreat! We absolutely can’t let them succeed.”

After the Town Token dropped, the player who obtained it would have a mark above their head. This mark would only disappear after holding it for two hours, and it wouldn't drop if the player was killed.

However, while holding the Town Token, players couldn't use items like Return Scrolls, so trying to use a Return Scroll to return to the city and hide was impossible. They could only endure for two hours.

Now, Shi Feng was the closest to Threya, while everyone else was far away. Needless to say, the Town Token would fall into Shi Feng’s hands. Although the elite members of the major guilds numbered less than 50,000, the threat was still not small, not to mention the large number of experts rushing over.

Fortunately, Ouroboros didn't need to fight head-on. With nearly 30,000 elite members of Ouroboros providing cover, it was still easy for Shi Feng to retreat. When the time came, they could hide in a deserted place and just wait for time to pass.

On the Obelisk, after sealing the Awakener, the Obelisk also sank into the ground and disappeared. Shi Feng leisurely picked up the items dropped by Threya, not paying any attention to the approaching crowd.

Because once something was in his hands, it was almost impossible to take it away from him.

Although Threya was just a Tier 2 NPC, the drops were very generous. He dropped over twenty items, mostly magic crystals and some rare materials. The most valuable items were only three: the first was the Town Token, the second was a magic array design, and the rest were level 50 weapons and equipment. The quality wasn't high; they were all Mithril rank, and the current players couldn't equip them anyway.

“This Basic Mana Gathering Magic Array is a good thing, but it costs too many magic crystals. Most guilds probably won't use it,” Shi Feng thought to himself with regret as he looked at the old blueprint in his hand.

The Basic Mana Gathering Magic Array could gather magic elements within a 30*30 yard area, allowing players to meditate inside and improve their skill proficiency. The concentration of magic elements was slightly higher than the Trial Tower in the Arena of Gods, but it cost fifty magic crystals to maintain for one hour.

Speaking of improvement effects, the Trial Tower had the Main God System’s perfect combat demonstrations for each class, which was much better than the Mana Gathering Magic Array without opponents. However, it was a good environment for specifically practicing skills, since the Trial Tower wouldn't give players time to practice skills.

But the most suitable number of players the Basic Mana Gathering Magic Array could accommodate was 8 to 10 people. Calculating it this way, it was very expensive. One or two hours wouldn't have any effect at all. Generally, it would take five or six hours or more, which meant that the magic crystal consumption per person would be around 30. This was definitely not a value that the current major guilds were willing to accept.

Putting away the Basic Mana Gathering Magic Array, Shi Feng took out a golden key from his bag. This was the third most valuable treasure, the key to the Stone Forest Town Treasury.

Every town occupied by the dark forces had its own treasury. Just like the last time Zero Wing attacked Creek Town, because it was a subjugation mission, the treasures they could obtain were very few. However, even that was a big harvest. Now that they had truly occupied Stone Forest Town, the treasures they obtained would definitely drive the major guilds crazy.

However, this was a secret that only players who had occupied a town knew. The major guilds didn't know that there was such a thing.

“Aqua Rose, give this key to you. You lead the main force and the Black God Legion to take all the items in the treasury immediately, then meet up in White River City,” Shi Feng said, handing the golden key to Aqua Rose and running towards the outside of Stone Forest Town.

Although he could easily shake off the major guilds, he could only play with the people from the major guilds in order to buy time for Aqua Rose.

“Not good, Black Flame escaped!”

“Chase! We must not let Black Flame escape.”

When the major guilds saw Shi Feng leaving Stone Forest Town and running towards Graystone Hills, they changed their routes and rushed towards Graystone Hills as well.

Shi Feng looked at the elite army chasing after him and couldn't help but slow down, giving the elite army a chance to catch up, gradually leading the elite army away from Stone Forest Town.

“Guild Leader, the Town Token has been obtained by Zero Wing and Ouroboros. Our people probably can't catch up to Black Flame’s speed at all. The competition for Stoneclaw Mountains will be difficult for our Starlight Alliance,” Zi Tong said with a frown, looking at the Stone Forest Town video sent back by the guild members.

Stone Forest Town was the best geographical advantage for occupying the Stoneclaw Mountains. With Stone Forest Town, they had at least a nearly half chance of taking Stoneclaw Mountains, not to mention that the guild had suffered heavy losses. Ouroboros and Zero Wing no longer had much obstacles. Given some time, they probably had a 70-80% chance of taking Stoneclaw Mountains.

“I really underestimated Black Flame’s methods, but Star-Moon City is ultimately the territory of our Starlight Alliance. Even if Ouroboros and Zero Wing get Stone Forest Town, don't even think about occupying Stoneclaw Mountains,” Xinghe Wang Yu’s eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, “We'll return to Star-Moon City now. Zi Tong, you contact those few guilds now, and spread the news about Stoneclaw Mountains. I want to see how Zero Wing and Ouroboros will take Stoneclaw Mountains.”

Time flew by. After Shi Feng teased the major guilds for two hours, he directly used a Return Scroll to return to White River City.

However, Shi Feng didn't directly return to the guild residence, but instead headed straight to the Adventurer’s Association with the Stone Forest Town Token.
