Chapter 1328 Kingdom in an Uproar

Shortly after Shi Feng had made his announcement, a commotion erupted on the Star-Moon Kingdoms forums.

What? Zero Wing is selling private houses again?

Even when I offered 1,000 Gold, no one was willing to sell their houses. Now that Zero Wing has finally decided to sell more, I have to get one.

Stone Forest Town will most likely become even more popular. Ive heard that the adventurer teams with private houses have improved considerably since the purchase. These teams have almost cleared out the rare tools sold in Stone Forest Town.

Wonderful! Our adventurer wasnt able to attend the previous auction. This time, well get our own private house!

Players are going to fight over Stone Forest Towns houses. I hadnt expected Zero Wing to activate the Private House Upgrade System. It really makes you wonder how Zero Wing did it.

Ive looked it up. Currently, Stone Forest Towns private houses are only 1-star. After one upgrade, each house can register another ten players. These ten players can then teleport to and from the house, although it does have a one-day Cooldown. The houses owner can teleport without a Cooldown.

This wont do! I need to go borrow some money right away!

Initially, everyone was overjoyed to hear that Zero Wing had decided to sell more of Stone Forest Towns houses. However, after gaining a clearer understanding of the Private House Upgrade System, many adventurer teams began to look at the houses as potential gold mines.

After the upgrade system activated, these private houses seemed tailor-made for the various adventurer teams. Now, by owning one of these private houses, an adventurer team could explore further and return an entire team to Stone Forest Town at a moments notice, enjoying the towns various benefits.

Stone Forest Town wasnt the least bit inferior to Red Iron Town, which Heavens Burial developed with everything it had.

Ever since Heavens Burial had gained access to Evernight City, it had established Evernight Citys teleportation array in a high-resource map not far from Red Iron Town.

Now that a Guild had gained access to Evernight City, it was much easier for players to venture to the city. Players only needed to complete some corresponding quests to gain access themselves. Later, they could travel between Red Iron Town and Evernight City easily. Players would be able to reach high-level and high-resource maps relatively quickly.

The only downside was that, unless one was a member of Heavens Burial or owned a private house in Red Iron Town, they could only teleport from Evernight City to Red Iron Town, not the other way around.

Even so, Red Iron Town grew steadily. Wandering merchants had already begun to visit the town. Meanwhile, Heavens Burials private houses were much cheaper than Stone Forest Towns. This tempted many independent experts and adventurer teams to invest.

As long as they bought a house in Red Iron Town, their development would be reliant on Heavens Burial.

Furthermore, Heavens Burial would undoubtedly construct teleportation arrays connected to Evernight City in other towns in the future. Using Evernight City as a waypoint, players could then freely teleport to any of Heavens Burials Guild Towns.

This would be very convenient.

Many players considered purchasing a house in Red Iron Town.

However, after Zero Wings announcement, the various adventurer teams in Star-Moon Kingdom changed their minds. After all, Stone Forest Town was now far stronger than Red Iron Town.

For a time, even adventuring teams in Star-Moon Kingdoms neighboring kingdoms and empires were tempted as they secretly collected funds.

Only two players occupied a secluded bar in the Apocalypse Empires capital. One was a man, and the other was a woman. The man had a dignified appearance, and although he seemed young and well-groomed, there was a look in his eyes that spoke of a variety of life experiences. He was clearly older than he looked. As for the woman, to put it simply, she was an absolute beauty. She had long, flowing hair that fell to her thin waist, and her every action could easily mesmerize both men and women.

Two glasses of purplish-red wine had been placed before these players. Despite being untouched, Mana constantly gathered around the purplish-red liquid. The liquid also gave off a faint red glow, giving it an attractive appearance. Its aroma could make anyone salivate, tempting them to drink it.

If Shi Feng were present, hed be shocked to see this wine.

The wine within the two glasses was none other than one of the Apocalypse Empires Five Great Wines, Tears of Purgatory. Not just anyone could obtain this beverage. It would only be awarded to those who obtained the key to the Purgatory Barrier and cleared it. Although Tears of Purgatory wasnt as effective as Soul Water, it wasnt far off either.

In the past, wine collecting players had even been willing to pay 1,000 Gold to purchase a single bottle.

However, Shi Feng would be more surprised to see the woman at the bar, the Midnight Tea Partys vice commander, Endless Scars.

Old Ghost Heartless, why did you come looking for me so suddenly? Endless Scars asked the man looking to be in his thirties across from her. Smiling faintly, she continued, Or are you here to tell me that your apprentice has lost?

Little girl, why do you insist on calling me Old Ghost? Am I really that old? Heartless Sword rolled his eyes.

Well? Im right, arent I? Zero Wing isnt as simple as you assume. Endless Scars paid no attention to Heartless Swords grumbling. Since your apprentice, Evil Fire, has lost, according to our agreement, I am allowed to invite Black Flame to join our operation, yes?

This doesnt count. Ye Feng defeated Evil Fire, not Black Flame, Heartless Sword said, shaking his head.

Old Ghost, do you really think that your apprentice can defeat Black Flame, Star-Moon Kingdoms publicly-acknowledged, number one expert? Endless Scars said, chuckling. Or do you think that one defeat isnt enough?

Heartless Sword turned pale when he heard Endless Scarss comment. He had seen the battle video himself. The gap between the fighters strength was incredibly massive. Even if Black Flame werent as strong as Ye Feng, they couldnt be that different.

Forget it. I give up. I wont continue to argue with you. Ill agree to your request, Heartless Sword helplessly gave in to Endless Scarss demand. However, Im not the only one involved. Youll have to get the others approval as well. Although, I doubt that theyll agree.

You dont have to worry about that. As long as you agree, I can easily convince the others to fall in line, Endless Scars said, smiling. She then finished her Tears of Purgatory before leaving the bar.

Meanwhile, in Heavens Burials Residence in Star-Moon City, an uproar shook the Guild.

Damnable Zero Wing! They dare to ruin my good fortune! Singular Burial cursed as he read the latest statistics report on Red Iron Town.

He couldve made a fortune by selling Red Iron Towns private houses. He could then use the money to support the Guilds development. Now, however, Zero Wing had ruined his plans. Initially, he had over 400 interested buyers. Now, less than half remained

Guild Leader, should we lower the price a little? Daybreak Fog suggested.

Currently, they sold the towns houses for between 300 and 400 Gold. If they dropped the price to between 200 and 300 Gold, they should attract more buyers. After all, Stone Forest Towns private houses had already climbed to 1,000 Gold.

No need! I had intended to let Zero Wing survive for a bit longer, but Ive changed my mind! Notify Abandoned Wave immediately! We are going to teach Zero Wing who truly owns Star-Moon Kingdom!
