Chapter 139 Advanced Title

Shi Feng was stunned for a good while after hearing the system notification.

He never thought he could obtain an advanced title this way.

Getting an ordinary title was already difficult enough, and obtaining an advanced title was considered a stroke of great luck. Now, he had only spent a mere 1,400 gold coins, not only resolving the eyesore of red-named players in the city but also earning an advanced title.

No one would probably believe it if he told them.

In his previous life, so many large guilds were willing to spend tens of thousands of gold coins to buy an accurate clue to obtain an advanced title, let alone actually obtaining one. Such an opportunity was something they couldn't even get in line for, even if they broke their heads.

"City Guardian?" Shi Feng was more familiar with ordinary titles, but he knew very little about advanced titles. After all, the effects of advanced titles were extraordinary, and no one would easily reveal them, just like the attributes and skills of top-grade weapons and equipment.

City Guardian, advanced title: A hero who protects the city from the corruption of dark forces. Players with this title enjoy the treatment of a grand noble in any human city. They can also accept an epic-level quest from the Adventurer's Guild for their direct subordinates every week. Furthermore, the success rate of their direct subordinates completing quests increases by 5%.

"Truly worthy of being an advanced title, it can actually allow direct subordinates to accept an epic-level quest every week!" Shi Feng couldn't help but be surprised.

The key to the rapid advancement of direct subordinates lies in the quests they accept from the Adventurer's Guild. The higher the quest level, the better the experience and equipment obtained upon completion.

However, there aren't many choices for direct subordinate quests in the Adventurer's Guild. Even dark-gold quests are rare, and seeing one in a week is considered lucky, let alone epic-level quests. Getting one in a month is like hitting the jackpot.

If direct subordinates could undertake an epic-level quest every week, their advancement speed would be unimaginable, not to mention the 5% increase in success rate.

Even if he assigned dark-gold subordinates like Kite and Anna to complete dark-gold quests, their success rate would only be 50%. With excellent weapons and equipment, it might reach 80%, but it wouldn't reach 100%, let alone epic-level quests.

From what Shi Feng knew, even dark-gold subordinates with excellent weapons and equipment only had a 30% chance of completing an epic-level quest. Normal dark-gold subordinates had a 20% chance of success, and as for the lower-level fine-gold subordinates, even with top-tier equipment, a 10% success rate would be heaven-defying.

Therefore, an advanced title that could increase the quest success rate by 5% was an extremely powerful thing.

Thinking of this, Shi Feng switched from the Slayer title to the City Guardian title and summoned Kite and Anna.

In the short time since he last saw them, Kite and Anna had leveled up considerably, advancing from level 60 to level 65.

Aqua Rose and Fire Dance, who were standing nearby, were shocked when they saw Kite and Anna.

"How can they be so strong?" Aqua Rose said in surprise.

She was already a viscount in White River City and could recruit her own direct subordinates. However, even with the strength of the entire guild and Shi Feng's guidance, she had barely managed to recruit a fine-gold subordinate from Star-Moon Kingdom. Moreover, this fine-gold subordinate was a guardian knight, making him a perfect match for her. Aqua Rose was ecstatic at the time.

Under her full support, having accepted various high-level quests, he had only barely reached level 60. She didn't know how many more quests he would have to complete to reach level 65. However, this level was already quite impressive. The direct subordinates recruited by other guild executives were generally only level 55 to level 58. In terms of strength, they were far inferior to Aqua Rose's direct subordinate.

However, Shi Feng's two direct subordinates were not only level 65, but they also gave off the feeling of facing two level 65 Grand Lords, creating a suffocating sensation.

After summoning the two, Shi Feng directly spent 200 gold to accept epic-level quests for them.

Epic-level quests for direct subordinates in the Adventurer's Association could be completed by a team, thereby increasing the success rate. However, the team had to consist of one's own direct subordinates and could not team up with other people's direct subordinates.

With Kite and Anna doing the epic-level quest together, the displayed success rate increased significantly. Adding the advanced title, the success rate soared to 37%. This success rate was enough to make many people excited beyond measure, but Shi Feng was not satisfied.

A 37% success rate seemed high, but he knew very well that generally, such quests would only succeed once every five attempts, not once every three attempts. However, he could only receive an epic-level quest once a week with 100% certainty. Roughly estimating, it would take five weeks for Kite and Anna to complete an epic-level quest.

For a guild like Shi Feng's, which started from scratch without the support of any large consortium, this efficiency was not very high.

"It seems I still have to use it." Shi Feng opened his backpack and looked at the Seven Luminaries Fruit quietly lying inside.

As a sacred object, the Seven Luminaries Fruit could greatly enhance a player's potential, laying a solid foundation for advancing to tier 4 and tier 5 classes, and even helping with advancement to tier 6 classes. After all, the four hidden attributes were too important for players. It was extremely difficult to increase even a single attribute point, let alone increase all four hidden attributes by more than fifteen points simultaneously.

But if he could nurture a nearly invincible direct subordinate, it would also be a worthwhile endeavor.

In his previous life, Kite only had 92 points of potential and was an invincible existence among his peers at tier 5. Only tier 6 divine players could suppress him.

If he could really nurture a tier 6 direct subordinate, he could truly walk unhindered in God's Domain. However, making an NPC direct subordinate become a tier 6 was much more difficult than a player advancing to tier 6. This was no longer something that could be accomplished with financial resources alone.

Luck, opportunity, and strength were all essential before it was possible to reach tier 6.

"Kite's potential is currently 94 points, and Anna's potential is higher, reaching 96 points. Although Anna is not as good as Kite in frontal defense, I should still give the Seven Luminaries Fruit to Anna to use." After thinking about it, Shi Feng finally gave the Seven Luminaries Fruit to Anna to eat.

After Anna consumed the Seven Luminaries Fruit, the magic power in the entire room suddenly turned violent.

This violence was different from using high-tier magic; it was more like being controlled by something. The violence was very regular, with different elements gathering together and transforming into a seven-colored mist that frantically flowed into Anna's body.

Along with the rushing seven-colored elements, Anna was completely enveloped by the seven-colored elements, like a giant cocoon, flashing and bursting with seven-colored light, emitting an astonishing pressure. Even Shi Feng himself was suppressed to the point where his face turned pale, and it was difficult to move even a finger, while Aqua Rose and Fire Dance were completely unable to move, like stone statues.

If this were not the second-floor VIP lounge, isolated from the outside world by a magic array,

Shi Feng had no doubt that the players in the entire Adventurer's Association would be lying on the ground.

Then, after a minute, a thin crack appeared in the seven-colored cocoon that Anna had transformed into. As it shattered completely, Anna slowly walked out of the cocoon. However, unlike before, Anna was now like the master of magic elements, and the surrounding magic elements couldn't help but submit to Anna herself.

"Did it succeed?" Shi Feng couldn't help but nervously check Anna's data.
