Chapter 1356 – Abandoned Wave’s End
Star-Moon Kingdom, Star-Moon City:
After the battle in Stone Forest Town, many rchant players from neighboring kingdoms and empires gathered in the city. Three out of ten players that arrived in the Teleportation Hall were low leveled rchant players in ordinary equipnt. Normally, such a scene could only be found in imperial capitals.
Upon arriving at Star-Moon City, the rchant players teleported to the closest NPC town to Stone Forest Town. The long line at one of the departure teleportation arrays stupefied players.
“Why are all these rchant players heading to Stone Forest Town?! Isn’t it just a asly Guild town? Why make such a huge fuss over it?”
“Don’t you know? When Zero Wing announced that it would auction adventurer houses, it had also declared that it would sell all kinds of Shops to outsiders. These rchant players are heading to Stone Forest Town to get a better idea of the town’s situation. The Shops in NPC cities are too expensive. There’s also a lot of competition with the various large Guilds’ Shops on top of the high property tax every month. It’s simply impossible for ordinary rchant players to afford.
“The Shops in Guild towns, on the other hand, are much cheaper. The monthly property tax is also much lower. Most importantly, Stone Forest Town’s player traffic rivals an NPC city’s. Due to the Battle Arena, expert players have gathered there, and they generally have plenty of precious resources. rchant players will be able to buy and sell their items more conveniently if they had a Shop in Stone Forest Town. Everyone knows that Stone Forest Town has near-impeccable security now. Naturally, rchant players are eager to move into Stone Forest Town.”
“In that case, wouldn’t it be amazing if we developed in Stone Forest Town!?”
...
Independent players quickly started making preparations to shift their base of operations to Stone Forest Town.
Originally, the Candlelight Trading Firm’s presence already made Stone Forest Town a good place to develop. Unfortunately, NPC cities sold a much more diverse selection of items than the Candlelight Trading Firm. Now that so many rchant players were planning to invest into Stone Forest Town, with so even coming from other kingdoms and empires, Stone Forest Town would sell a greater variety of items.
Stone Forest Town’s variety of rchandise might rival, or even surpass, Star Moon City’s.
Unlike Shops in NPC cities, players could construct simple teleportation arrays in Guild town shops. rchant players could teleport directly to their Shops without passing through Star-Moon City or spending hours traveling by carriage. This encouraged rchant players to sell more products in Stone Forest Town, facilitating the transfer of rchandise.

Heaven’s Burial’s upper echelons had gathered in the Residence’s eting room.
The eting room was silent as everyone stared at Singular Burial, who wore a solemn expression.
Despite foolishly throwing away the opportunity to invite famous adventurer teams to occupy Stone Forest Town, even more independent players were attracted by the mass of rchant players. Both Stone Forest Town and Zero Wing would develop rapidly. As a result, the gap between Heaven’s Burial and Zero Wing would expand.
“Our only hope is to take down the Frost King as soon as possible. Although the rewards won’t help us overtake Zero Wing, we can put up a fight,” Singular Burial said helplessly.
Not only was Zero Wing undamaged by Abandoned Wave’s, but it had helped increase Stone Forest Town’s fa. He wouldn’t have let Abandoned Wave take action so soon if he’d known this would happen. To make things worse, Abandoned Wave had been captured. With Abandoned Wave finished, there was no Guild in Star-Moon Kingdom capable of stopping Zero Wing from becoming the kingdom’s overlord.
“Guild Leader, I just received good news,” Daybreak Fog said.
“Good news?” Singular Burial inquired, “What kind of good news could there be at a ti like this?”
“Didn’t Black Fla kill Fla Blood? Broken Flow had brought his team to resurrect Fla Blood after failing at his task. Although Fla Blood had suffered grievous losses, he got to et Abandoned Wave’s leader, Beast Emperor. Beast Emperor had even secretly added Fla Blood as a friend,” Daybreak Fog explained. “Beast Emperor took the initiative to contact Fla Blood, stating that he wishes to have a personal chat with you. Beast Emperor also said that he’s willing to help Heaven’s Burial annihilate Zero Wing!”
“Abandoned Wave’s leader, is it?” Singular Burial smiled. “Alright, tell Fla Blood to send Beast Emperor a reply. Say that I’m willing to have a proper discussion with him.”
Daybreak Fog conveyed Singular Burial’s response to Fla Blood.

Shi Feng alighted from the advanced horse carriage and ca face to face with White River City’s War God’s Temple.
The War God’s Temple served as a waypoint for teleporting to the Abyss Battlefield. There were more players entering and leaving the War God’s Temple now than the Adventurer’s Association. Players would visit the War God’s Temple at least once a day.
If the Adventurer’s Association was a good place for individual players to earn money, then the War God’s Temple was a good place for players to level up and improve their foundational strength.
If the Abyss Battlefield didn’t limit players to just one life per day, every player in the ga would likely stay cooped up there and refuse to leave.
Although the Abyss Battlefield’s monsters didn’t drop Coins, they dropped weapons and equipnt as well as gave Honor Points. Honor Points could be used to purchase tools, top-tier weapons, and equipnt from the War God’s Temple.
It was extrely difficult to survive inside the Abyss Battlefield. Moreover, the higher level one reached, the more difficult the monsters would be.
Expert players below Level 50 could stay in the Abyss Battlefield for an entire day as long as they didn’t go anywhere too dangerous. Though their inco would be lower if they didn’t take risks, after a few days of grinding, they could still accumulate enough points to purchase good equipnt. The weapons and equipnt for sale at the War God’s Temple were more suited towards PvP. The items’ effects and Basic Attributes would be inferior to the items dropped by Field Bosses and Team Dungeons. Even so, the Abyss Battlefield was still a paradise for solo players.
After Level 50, however, surviving in less dangerous maps would be even more difficult for expert players. Level 50-plus weapons and equipnt cost substantially more Honor Points. Eventually, rather than a place for farming items, the Abyss Battlefield beco a training ground for expert players and a place for ordinary players to grind for the Double EXP Potion.
When Shi Feng arrived at the War God’s Temple’s third-floor hall, a Level 150, Tier 3 Great Mage greeted him. “Sir, how may I help you?”
Casting a glance at the NPC, Shi Feng noticed that it was a senior administrator at the War God’s Temple nad Roland.
“I’ve captured an Evil God Apostle, so I’m here to claim the bounty.”
The first-floor hall of the War God’s Temple dealt with all matters relating to the Abyss Battlefield. The second floor was the War God’s Temple’s quest area, where players could accept quests or turn in their completed quests. Players were awarded rit Points for completing War God’s Temple quests. Similarly, players could spend rit Points on items here.
Players were allowed to freely enter the War God’s Temple’s first two floors. The third floor was different. As it was a place that specifically dealt with matters relating to the dark forces, players wouldn’t be allowed to set foot onto the third floor if they didn’t have any related matters.
“An Evil God Apostle?!” Roland’s old face twitched. With a slightly suspicious look on his face, he looked at Shi Feng and said, “Can you allow to confirm your claim’s validity?”
“Sure.” Shi Feng took out the Mobile Jail and handed it to Roland.
After Roland received the Mobile Jail, he chanted an incantation and tapped his finger on the crystal ball.
An image appeared above the Mobile Jail. The image displayed Abandoned Wave trapped inside a dark space. Abandoned Wave was continuously hurling attacks at the surrounding space. He radiated Evil Energy, and his eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that he had already fallen into madness.
“It really is an Evil God Apostle!” Shock flashed in Roland’s eyes. The War God’s Temple and the Evil God’s Temple had a hostile relationship. anwhile, Evil God Apostles had received the Evil God’s blessing. They were rare in God’s Domain. Roland returned the Mobile Jail to Shi Feng and said respectfully, “Esteed adventurer, please follow . I’ll bring you to et with the Vice Temple Lord. I believe the Vice Temple Lord will be very happy to et you.”
