The Demon Master, upon receiving Chu Tian's message, had no idea what he was planning.
He could understand the collection of high-level ores and materials.
But Chu Tian's request for both low-level and high-level ores was beyond his comprehension.
Low-level ores were of little use at this stage.
The grade of an ore determined the grade of the material refined from it.
What did Chu Tian need so many low-level materials for?
The Demon Master racked his brain but couldn't fathom that Chu Tian's clone could infinitely refine vast quantities of low-level ores to extract high-level materials, and even re-fuse high-level materials to forge god-tier materials.
This technique was beyond the capabilities of even a god-tier blacksmith.
Only the clone, having obtained the Divine Craftsman inheritance, possessed such immense power.
It could be considered a heaven-defying ability.
While the Demon Master was lost in thought, Chu Tian had already arrived... at Reverse God City.
This was the first fortress Chu Tian and his allies had captured, located at the border between the Imperial Capital district and the Four Seasons Spring region.
This was Chu Tian's first time entering his own fortress.
As he appeared at the teleportation point, countless white lights flickered around him.
These were players teleporting to this fortress.
Among them, Chu Tian saw many players wearing simple cloth armor, and even a family of three with a toddler.
The young child flailed its arms and legs, its face full of curiosity.
Chu Tian guessed that the child might not yet be able to walk in reality, hence its curiosity about everything.
The surrounding sounds were filled with joy and laughter.
Seeing this scene, Chu Tian felt immensely proud.
This was his city, and witnessing such a prosperous sight, how could he not be happy?
These people in different attire were clearly not high-level players.
They were what were known as "traveler players."
They treated the Heavenly Dao world as an amusement park, neither leveling up nor participating in any activities.
The pressure of work in modern society left them with little time, their lives confined to a monotonous routine between work and home.
They disliked combat and had no holidays to spend with their families, so when the Heavenly Dao world opened at night, it became their paradise.
They could spend time with their loved ones, family, and children…
After the fortress war, entertainment facilities could be built within the fortress.
This was why Chu Tian was determined to capture the fortress.
The entertainment facilities within the fortress were all paid attractions.
They were specifically open to this type of demographic.
Of course, it wasn't just these people who would come to play.
Normal players would also bring their girlfriends to play.
After all, high-pressure gameplay wasn't suitable for everyone.
Even high-end players needed to relax.
Chu Tian's current appearance was with all his equipment removed.
He only wore the basic shorts.
It wasn't that he didn't want to wear them, but he had searched his inventory and found no extra equipment.
He walked out of the teleportation array and headed directly to the guild stronghold.
At the entrance to the guild stronghold stood two guards, system NPCs.
These two glanced at Chu Tian, ignored him as they had yesterday, and stepped through the guild gate.
As soon as he entered, he bumped into a small team.
The faces in that team were all unfamiliar.
Chu Tian paid them no mind and continued inside.
The people in the team, however, let out bursts of laughter.
"I say, buddy… what's with you? Did someone strip your gear? Hahaha!"
Those individuals pointed at Chu Tian.
However, they didn't do anything excessive.
Another person added,
"I have some spare equipment here, want to take it first?"
Although these people were mocking him verbally,
their actions were quite comforting.
Chu Tian nodded to himself, thinking that the guild members' character was quite good at the moment.
But before he could finish speaking,
another team appeared, preparing to leave.
The equipment on these people was colorful.
Several of them wore dark gold armor.
The person walking at the front of the team looked extremely arrogant.
Seeing the previous team stopped there, he walked directly towards them.
In reality, the doorway was very wide, and the team exiting had no need to pass so close.
The person extended the equipment, and Chu Tian hesitated whether to accept it or not.
After all, he didn't know these people.
However, he didn't want to offend their good intentions.
Although they laughed, it wasn't mocking laughter.
But due to the appearance of this team, from a distance, a voice came from within the team.
"Yo~~ Isn't that Qing Feng! Helping trash again? How much trash have you helped? Still trying to get something in return? Trash is always trash? No matter how much you give them, they're still worthless!"
The speaker was the man walking at the front of that team.
He walked closer and stopped, looking at the person referred to as Qing Feng.
The person who offered Chu Tian the equipment.
He stared at Qing Feng with an extremely mocking gaze.
As for Chu Tian, who stood to the side,
that guy didn't even glance at him.
Even more infuriatingly, Chu Tian was originally standing in front of Qing Feng.
This man directly pushed Chu Tian aside,
as if Chu Tian were just troublesome garbage.
Seeing this man's demeanor, Chu Tian was speechless. He had just thought that the guild members had good character and were mutually supportive.
But less than a minute later, such a disgusting fellow appeared.
When the other guy bumped into Chu Tian earlier, he had smelled a faint fragrance. This grown man actually used perfume, such a luxury item, in the game.
"Little Prince, you're going too far. We are all brothers in the same guild…"
Qing Feng remained silent, but the expressions of the people behind him turned grim.
However, before they could finish speaking, Qing Feng waved his hand, interrupting them.
"Big brother…"
Seeing Qing Feng tell them not to speak, they felt distressed.
Qing Feng, however, shook his head and looked at the person called Little Prince with a smile.
"You, man, were you raised on shit? You call everyone trash, trash, trash. Do you know… in our eyes, you are the real trash!"
Qing Feng always spoke with a smile, giving people a warm feeling.
However, his verbal skills were not inferior at all.
"You… Qing Feng, you should worry about how your team will surpass ours in this week's rankings! Always the eternal second place in the Seventh Regiment, Ninth Brigade… Hahaha!!!"
Little Prince's face changed a few times as he was rebutted by Qing Feng. Finally, he suppressed his anger and changed to a different sarcastic remark.
This time, it was Qing Feng's turn. When he heard the words "eternal second place," his smile stiffened for a moment.
However, he shrugged, indicating it didn't matter.
"Seventh Regiment, Ninth Brigade? The first-ranked team… is that their quality?"
After their exchange, their eyes met…
It was as if sparks flew in the air. However, at this moment, a faint voice appeared, drawing everyone's attention.
Even Little Prince turned his head, his face filled with rage.
The people in Qing Feng's team looked at Chu Tian, their faces showing a mixture of emotions.
There was surprise, joy, and worry.
This guy was truly a fearless newcomer. Perhaps he was a new member.
Didn't he know that Little Prince was extremely petty?
How dare he call him ill-mannered in front of him?
And in front of Qing Feng, Little Prince's old rival.
To be called low-quality in front of an opponent was like a slap in the face… a critical blow.
"Kid, you don't want to live anymore…"
One of Little Prince's teammates became angry.
"Why are you interfering when someone is feeding a dog shit?"
Chu Tian rolled his eyes and stared at him with a half-smile.
"You… cross us, and you won't be able to stay in the Reverse God Alliance." Another person chimed in.
"Heh, birds of a feather flock together. Indeed… those who gather together have the same quality."
Chu Tian felt no anger from their threats.
On the contrary, he found it amusing that these guys were saying he wouldn't be able to stay in the Reverse God Alliance.
"You really are a group of brainless pigs. Aren't you the ones who won't be able to stay?"
Qing Feng was about to say something to Chu Tian, but upon hearing him say that, he stopped his slightly shifting footsteps.
At the same time, he sighed inwardly.
This guy… he's a hothead. It would be better not to interact with him too much in the future.
Originally, he helped Chu Tian without expecting anything in return. He was also a person who enjoyed making friends and didn't care about gains or losses.
However, Chu Tian confronting Little Prince directly like this, although it made him feel good, he thought Chu Tian was not a wise person.
They had revealed their identities earlier, and Chu Tian still dared to provoke him. Was he not an idiot?
In the Reverse God Alliance, the top teams in any regiment were incomparable to ordinary players.
They possessed a lot of power, and with a little effort, they could put pressure on an ordinary member, making it difficult for them to stay in the Reverse God Alliance.
However, Qing Feng could never have imagined Chu Tian's true identity…
Which was the Guild Leader of this Reverse God Alliance!
Because when they joined the guild, they had never seen the so-called "Virtuous God."
Even when they were promoted to the Seventh Regiment, the contracts were signed by the Executive President.
Furthermore, their Guild Leader: "I Am Not a Druid," had not logged in for a year and a half, and rumors said he had quit the Heavenly Dao world.
Fortunately, he had laid a solid foundation for the Reverse God Alliance, and now that it was in normal operation, his presence or absence didn't matter.
Moreover, the strength of people like Heng Dao, Jian Zhi Cang Tian, and Sheng Guang Hu You Ni, who were below Virtuous God, was also very strong.
The Executive President: Tears Falling City, also had excellent management skills.
Therefore, the Reverse God Alliance… had stood firm until today.
The fact that the Reverse God Alliance could still stand firm like a steadfast pillar even after Virtuous God hadn't logged in for a year and a half made people admire Chu Tian even more.
If he hadn't provided the Reverse God Alliance with such a high starting point in the early stages of the game, how could the Reverse God Alliance have become a stumbling block for the Northern War Zone?
With the strength of a single guild, they blocked the entire Northern War Zone from advancing.
They also deterred the allied armies of three war zones, preventing them from crossing the border.
That massive tank stood on the southernmost boundary line of the Northern War Zone.
It was precisely its existence that made people from the three war zones hesitate and dare not approach.
