Chapter 867 Abyss Ancient Book
Inside the silent, high-end forging room, Shi Feng was also incredibly excited.
He hadn't expected the Abyss hilts' effect to be so effective when combined with the Soul Flame.
Originally, he had prepared a trump card to deal with the Hell Demon, but he hadn't thought that using the special effect of the Abyss hilts would be enough to easily take care of it. With this kind of power, even when facing old monsters like Beichen Tianlang in the future, he would have a fighting chance without activating his dual burst.
Dual Burst was his ultimate trump card, and he would never use it unless it was absolutely necessary, because the side effects after using it were too great. He would fall into a long period of weakness, making it easy for those with ulterior motives to take advantage of him.
However, the mental oppression of the Abyss hilts had no restrictions and could be used anytime, anywhere. The only side effect was mostly eliminated by the Soul Flame.
However, he had already used the Abyss hilts' effect this time to deal with the Hell Demon, so he would have to be more careful when using the Abyss hilts in the future.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the Return of the King guild, but he was afraid that someone would find out that he had obtained the Ancient Book, which was why he was hiding his identity.
The power of the Ancient Book was extraordinary, and it was also a treasure trove for earning a lot of wealth.
Although people didn't know the true value of the Ancient Book right now, as the Abyss monsters invaded and various quests appeared, they would gradually learn about the existence of the Ancient Book and its true value.
If others found out that he had obtained the Ancient Book, it would be fine if they came to snatch it, he could completely take it on, but he was afraid that some people would have the idea of dying together.
The Abyss Passage was opened, and the War God Temple had to use the power of the Ancient Book to seal the Abyss Passage.
When the time came, as long as a player listed a bit of evidence to the NPCs of the War God Temple, proving that the Ancient Book was in his hands, the NPCs of the War God Temple would definitely come looking for trouble. If he was wanted all over the world, how could he be a match for those NPCs of the War God Temple?
At that time, not to mention that he wouldn't be able to keep the Ancient Book, even his life would be over. This kind of punishment wasn't as simple as dying once or twice.
In the previous life, the players who were caught by the War God Temple had 500 points of all attributes permanently deducted, their levels dropped by ten levels, and the reputation of all human cities dropped by 500 points. If there were many cities with reputation beforehand, it would be fine, but if there was no reputation before, it would be difficult for players to enter that city, because they were in an enemy state and had to make up for the 500 reputation points from scratch to be on the same level as others. The punishment was undeniably heavy.
Therefore, after that, all the players who obtained the Ancient Book thought about hiding their identities and making a fortune in silence, fearing that others would find out, and the other party would have a moment of weakness, collect evidence, and tell the War God Temple, causing him to lose both money and people.
After Shi Feng took out the Forbidden Ancient Book, the entire room was immediately enveloped in a cloud of black mist.
"What powerful demonic energy!"
Shi Feng frowned slightly. There was no such phenomenon when he collected the Ancient Book before, but now that he took it out, it filled the entire space with demonic energy. Even if he put the Ancient Book back into his backpack space, the demonic energy would still spread out.
Demonic energy was also magic power, but the magic power in demonic energy was very violent.
It was difficult for players in the demonic energy to remain calm, and it would also make the player's reaction become sluggish. However, it was heaven for Abyss monsters, because demonic energy would not only make them stronger, but also increase their reaction speed.
But the worst thing was that this demonic energy would attract Abyss monsters.
Now that the Abyss monsters had invaded, the Star-Moon Kingdom would naturally be unable to avoid such an impact. If he went to the wild to level up, he would definitely become the light in the darkness, and be chased by a group of Abyss monsters.
If he waited until the Abyss monsters came to the Star-Moon Kingdom, it would be difficult for him to go out to level up and do quests.
Moreover, the Ancient Book could only be stored in the player's backpack space and could not be stored in other places at all…
However, while Shi Feng was racking his brains on how to solve the problem of the demonic energy, a system notification sounded in his ears.
System: Congratulations to the player for obtaining the Abyss Ancient Book. Do you want to become the holder of this book?
System: After becoming the holder, the player can initially control the power of the Abyss Ancient Book, but the player will also be branded with the Abyss mark. If discovered by the people of the War God Temple, the player will be severely punished.
"So that's what's going on." Shi Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then clicked to agree.
He was extremely short of money right now. Not to mention the matter of equipping guild members with mounts after they reached level 40, and the investment promised to Undying Light, the money to simply build a city was enough to give him a headache.
Don't look at how profitable solidified magic equipment was, but the money earned from these things was not enough to build a city in a short period of time. After all, the daily production of solidified magic equipment was so much, and the price would become cheaper in the future.
As for the design blueprints for the Bronze-rank engineering vehicles, that required a large number of advanced life professions. It would take a lot of investment to cultivate those advanced life professions, and it would take a long time to earn money.
So, all in all, the Abyss Ancient Book was the fastest way to make money right now.
Because of the appearance of Abyss monsters, a large number of players would think of ways to kill Abyss monsters in order to earn merit points. However, it was not easy to kill Abyss monsters, because high-level Abyss monsters were not opponents for players, but low-level Abyss monsters were in the depths of the occupied area. Players had to bypass those high-level Abyss monsters and sneak into the depths of the occupied area to kill those Abyss monsters.
Sneaking into these areas originally took a lot of time, because the occupied cities in the middle had no teleportation points at all, and you had to be careful to avoid those high-level Abyss monsters. Even if you had a mount, you would be exhausted. Not to mention that dealing with Abyss monsters consumed a lot of weapon and equipment durability, and you could only return to the city to repair. The time and energy wasted, only those with great perseverance could change jobs.
If you really wanted to change jobs wholeheartedly, your level and equipment would lag behind the first echelon of God's Domain by a large margin, but the amount of merit points was related to the level of the Abyss monsters. The higher the level, the more merit points…
Therefore, the importance of the Abyss Ancient Book was highlighted.
The Abyss Ancient Book could set up a barrier, and Abyss monsters would never take the initiative to step into this barrier, and players were very safe inside.
As long as a barrier was set up in the area of low-level Abyss monsters, and a magic teleportation array was built inside the barrier, you could teleport there at will, and you didn't have to worry about the magic teleportation array being destroyed by those Abyss monsters.
And what he had to do was collect teleportation fees.
The teleportation halls of the major NPC cities were more violent industries than auction houses. At the current level of players in God's Domain, you could save money and buy fewer consumables, and you could save money and not buy better equipment, but you could never escape the teleportation fees and equipment repair fees.
The temptation of new occupations to players was extremely great, and there were also other generous rewards. To say that players didn't want to obtain merit points was definitely a lie, and in order to save time, those players would naturally not mind spending some money.
The operation of the magic teleportation array required magic crystals to maintain, and the consumption of a magic crystal could teleport about twenty people.
Even if he only charged four silver coins per person, he would be able to earn money until his hands were soft, and he only needed to pay for some magic crystal consumption. The speed of earning money was faster than robbing money.
After solving the problem of demonic energy, Shi Feng quietly left the Candlelight Trading Firm, and took a high-end carriage wearing a black cloak to the teleportation hall, and teleported to the royal capital of the Twin Towers Kingdom.
The Twin Towers Kingdom had fallen, and the originally bustling royal capital had become deserted. There were basically no players on the street, and their levels were only in their twenties and thirties. Most of them were walking NPCs.
