Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God (Web Novel)-Chapter 3910 - 984 - City of Monsters

Chapter 984 – City of Monsters

Zero Wing’s announcement sent shockwaves across the Eternal Realm.

“Isn’t it just a Guild City’s priority entry slot? Is Zero Wing insane? Even at Shadowring Town’s peak, its priority entry slots only reached two Eternal Gold each. Is Zero Wing’s new city so amazing that it’s worth paying one God Crystal to enter?”

“Impossible! We’re talking about a heaven-defying town that comes with a neutral status here! Moreover, besides letting us trade with players of other races, the town also has the Eternal Realm’s one and only Tower of the Abyss! There’s no way any other town or city can hold a candle to Shadowring Town!”

“According to Zero Wing’s introduction, its new city is in Skeleton Hill. If I’m not mistaken, that’s a Level 230 Taboo Map. Only a few powers have erected Guild Cities in the Eternal Realm’s Taboo Maps thus far. Most of them are even Holy Race powers. Zero Wing has likely set this price for the various powers. After all, even with a Flying Mount, reaching any Taboo Map from the nearest town or city would normally take several hours. For the sake of exploring Taboo Maps, the various powers might choose to cough up the dough.”

“The price of 100 bottles per priority entry slot is indeed outside the average player’s budget. I heard that a major power had recently started persecuting Zero Wing, causing many corporations and powers to stop cooperating with it. This is likely Zero Wing’s attempt at salvaging the situation.”

“Even so, Zero Wing is still asking for too much. One God Crystal or 100 bottles of Life Potion. I doubt many powers would be willing to pay such a steep price.”

Initially, many players on the forum felt that Zero Wing had lost its mind when pricing its new city’s priority entry slots. However, after learning more about the primordial civilization city, many independent players and adventurer teams grew interested in it.

Level 230 Taboo Maps were currently the primary leveling spots for the Eternal Realm’s frontline players. These were also the most dangerous places in the Eternal Realm because players had to face powerful monsters and the players of other races.

For independent players and adventurer teams, these Taboo Maps were not only a place to level up but also a place of opportunity hiding many ruins and Legacies. Finding even one of these things could propel the average player’s strength to greater heights.

However, these opportunities also made the competition in Taboo Maps extremely brutal. If not for the Eternal Realm’s large and plentiful Taboo Maps having hostile environments that prevented long-term stays, the various powers would have long since monopolized them.

If independent players and adventurer teams could access a Guild City built within a Taboo Map, they could save on travel time and significantly extend their exploration time.

…

Eternal Realm, Shadowring Town, Mystery Blue Hotel:

“Commander, what do you think is going through Guild Leader Black Flame’s head? This is the Nebula Consortium we’re talking about! Although this new city can let players save on several hours of travel time, there’s no way the average expert can afford Zero Wing’s asking price!” Drifting Bean exclaimed after she finished reading Zero Wing’s forum post. Then, she looked at Endless Scars and asked, “Does Guild Leader Black Flame truly think the various powers will rush to buy those slots?”

The average player in the Eternal Realm might not know which power Zero Wing had offended, but as Endless Scars’s successor-in-training, Drifting Bean knew which power it was.

So long as the Nebula Consortium gave the word, few powers in the human race’s Greater God’s Domain would dare to cooperate with Zero Wing unless they no longer wanted access to Stardew.

If Zero Wing wished to obtain resources such as Life Potions, it could only obtain them through ordinary players. As most ordinary players could never get their hands on a resource as precious as Stardew, they naturally wouldn’t be influenced by the Nebula Consortium. They could simply purchase Life Potions from various mobile cities and resell them to Zero Wing, and there’d be nothing the Nebula Consortium could do about it. After all, the corporations and powers in the various mobile cities relied on selling Life Potions to generate income. Not even the Nebula Consortium could get them to abandon this revenue stream.

Yet, instead of targeting ordinary players, Zero Wing had chosen to sell its priority entry slots to the various powers. Zero Wing was obviously making the various powers take sides. So long as the various powers weren’t stupid, they would never buy Zero Wing’s priority entry slots.

“Zero Wing is likely trying to get back at the Nebula Consortium,” Endless Scars said after pondering the matter. “But even if the primordial civilization city is situated in a Taboo Map, I don’t think the various powers will budge…”

As an Elder of the Eternal Chamber of Commerce, Endless Scars knew plenty about the conflict between the Nebula Consortium and Zero Wing. Although she admired Shi Feng for daring to stand up to the Nebula Consortium, she knew that the Nebula Consortium was too powerful for Zero Wing to topple. After all, even the Seven Luminaries Alliance had difficulty dealing with the Nebula Consortium.

Hence, Endless Scars felt that Zero Wing’s attempt at making the various powers take sides using the primordial civilization city was futile. Unless the various human powers went crazy and wanted to offend the Nebula Consortium, they would never buy Zero Wing’s priority entry slots.

“Then, are we still going to develop in the primordial civilization city?” Drifting Bean asked.

“Long-term development won’t be possible, but we can use this opportunity to explore Skeleton Hill,” Endless Scars said, shaking her head. Then, she continued, “According to the information Zero Wing shared on the forum, Shadowring Town has a teleportation gate to the primordial civilization city. Since few powers will dare to visit the city, we can use this opportunity to explore a Taboo Map without interruption. Gather the others.”

“Understood!” At Endless Scars’s command, Drifting Bean promptly contacted the other members of Blood Wing.

As Endless Scars gathered the main force members of the Blood Wing adventurer team, other well-informed adventurer teams based in Shadowring Town also prepared to develop in Zero Wing’s primordial civilization city.

Now that the Nebula Consortium had begun its persecution of Zero Wing, the various powers would limit their interactions with Zero Wing for fear of offending the consortium. This meant that adventurer teams that lived in the cracks finally had an opportunity to get a head start on the various powers. They naturally couldn’t miss such an opportunity.

…

Eternal Realm, primordial civilization city:

A moment after a beam of light descended upon the Teleportation Tower, Endless Scars stepped out of the tower with Blood Wing’s main force members.

“Commander, what’s going on here?” Drifting Bean was dumbfounded when she exited the Teleportation Tower and saw the crowded street outside. “Weren’t the various powers supposed to keep their distance from this city?”

“How is this possible…”

Not to mention Drifting Bean, even Endless Scars had difficulty believing her eyes. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Contrary to her expectations, Zero Wing’s primordial civilization city was packed with players sporting various Guild Emblems. Moreover, the levels of these players were monstrously high. Even the lowest-leveled player she could spot was Level 235, while the higher-leveled players reached Level 240—or higher.
