Chapter 1969 – Chamber of Comrce
As the Jealous Witch finished speaking, the sound of a system notification reached Shi Feng’s ears.
System: Congratulations! You have accepted the Inferior Legendary Quest “Witch’s Sin.”
Quest content: Collect 100,000 Primordial Crystals in 30 days.
Quest reward: Divine Runic Armor Design.
After the system notification repeated three tis, the Jealous Witch vanished without a trace. Now, only Shi Feng remained before the Otherworld Gate.
Collect 100,000 Primordial Crystals in 30 days? Shi Feng frowned as he fell deep into thought.
This Inferior Legendary Quest was simply ruthless!
Only Chieftain rank and above monsters dropped Primordial Crystal Fragnts, and the drop rate for Chieftain monsters was only 3%. Furthermore, synthesizing a single Primordial Crystal required 10 fragnts. He’d need 1,000,000 Primordial Crystal Fragnts to complete the Jealous Witch’s latest quest...
Completing the question wouldn’t be that big of an issue if it didn’t have a ti limit, but there was a ti limit.
There weren’t even 100,000 Guild mbers operating in Zero Wing City right now. Trying to collect 100,000 Primordial Crystals in just 30 days would be a nightmare.
It seems I have no choice but to increase the Guild’s strength and give it a try, Shi Feng thought to himself as he decided to recruit more players.
Fortunately, there was no penalty indicated for failing the quest this ti. Thus, the penalty wouldn’t be too severe if he failed. Even so, giving up now would be a waste.
Unlike standardized Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold equipnt, standardized Epic Equipnt was in no way inferior to ordinary Epic Equipnt when it ca to Basic Attributes. The only difference was the lack of additional Skills and effects, as standardized equipnt didn’t have as many to offer players as ordinary Epic Equipnt Even so, the various major powers would consider the equipnt precious since Epic Equipnt was still so rare in God’s Domain.
Had the Divine Runic Armor been ordinary Epic Equipnt, though, he wouldn’t be able to mass-produce it due to the rarity of the required materials, and forging the equipnt would’ve been far more difficult. Even an Interdiate Master Forger like himself would only have a small chance of success, and no first-rate Guild could afford the total production costs. Only a superpower would have any hope of mass-producing ordinary Epic Equipnt at this stage of the ga.
However, crafting standardized Epic Equipnt was a different story. Standardized Epic Equipnt had been designed with mass-production in mind, so it didn’t have high material requirents. Most importantly, it wouldn’t be as difficult to forge as ordinary Epic Equipnt. Even an ordinary first-rate Guild could afford the production costs if it gave the design to an Interdiate Master Forger, not to ntion Zero Wing.
Following which, Shi Feng took out a Guild Transfer Scroll and returned to Zero Wing City to prepare for his newest quest.
At this point, players from all over Star-Moon Kingdom had sward to Zero Wing City, skyrocketing the city’s player population. As players wandered the city streets, an excited energy crackled between them as they waited for the Primordial Heart’s descent. Many adventurer teams had even started to purchase useful Magic Scrolls and potions in bulk. As soon as the Witch’s Hill began to change, they’d rush to take advantage of the opportunity the new expansion pack presented.
For a ti, Zero Wing City beca extraordinarily lively.
“Guild Leader, good news! Due to the new expansion pack, Zero Wing City’s player population has finally exceeded 10,000,000!” Aqua Rose exclaid when she noticed her Shi Feng’s return. “Moreover, the Seventh Street Chamber of Comrce has invited us to join their rchant alliance.”
Aside from Combat Guilds, God’s Domain had Lifestyle Guilds, and unlike their combat-focused brethren, Lifestyle Guilds focused on developing Lifestyle players and producing a wide variety of products. So of the larger Lifestyle Guilds generally allied to form Chambers of Comrce.
These Chambers of Comrce were not to be underestimated. They were only unknown to the general public due to their refusal to interfere with Combat Guilds1 matters. However, they didn’t lack influence in God’s Domain. The Comrce’s influence reached across more than a dozen kingdoms and empires, and they had even more wealth than so superpowers. In fact, many up-and-coming superpowers received funds and resources from so of these top Chambers of Comrce.
anwhile, the Seventh Street Chamber of Comrce was one of the most powerful in God’s Domain.
Joining one of the top Chambers of Comrce was extrely difficult. Ordinary first-rate Guilds didn’t qualify in the least. Normally, these Chambers only accepted superpowers or large Guilds with bountiful resources.
“What are their conditions?” Shi Feng asked.
He was very familiar with God’s Domain’s Chambers of Comrce. To join one, a Guild had to et certain conditions and pay a certain price.
“The mbership cost requires that we supply the alliance with Shops and virtual stores in all of our Guild Towns and Cities.
We will have to supply at least five Shops and two virtual stores in each, all of which have to be in different locations in the town or city. In addition, they require that our Guild sell the alliance 30% of the unique resources we obtain from the Otherworld Gate at market price,” Aqua Rose said.
“That price a little high,” Shi Feng said, shaking his head. “Tell them that Zero Wing will only give them up to three Shops and one virtual store in every town and city. As for the Otherworld Gate’s unique resources, we’ll sell them 20% at most. Moreover, I require that they buy the resources at 30% above market price!”
If one wished to acquire the resources a Chamber of Comrce offered, they had to contribute to the alliance. However, Seventh Street’s asking price was simply too high. The potential benefits Zero Wing would gain weren’t worth the price.
The Otherworld Gate’s unique resources would beco a massive source of inco for Zero Wing in the future, and purchasing these resources on the market would beco imnsely difficult. anwhile, the fact that Zero Wing City was within the Witch’s Hill ant that Zero Wing would have a greater competitive edge than other Guilds when fighting for the Otherworld Gate’s resources. Hence, 30% of Zero Wing’s harvest was no trivial amount. Furthermore, Seventh Street wanted to purchase these resources at market value.
“This...” Shi Feng’s counteroffer clearly troubled Aqua Rose.
Joining Seventh Street wasn’t easy. It’s influence encompassed over a dozen kingdoms and three empires, after all. If Zero Wing joined Seventh Street, it would elevate the Candlelight Trading Firm’s inco to a whole new level.
Yet, Shi Feng demanded far more than the Seventh Street’s offer...
However, seeing Shi Feng’s determination, Aqua Rose had no choice but to forward her Guild Leader’s reply to the Chamber of Comrce’s representative.
After dealing with the Seventh Street’s offer, Shi Feng instructed Aqua Rose to recruit players in Zero Wing City before he returned to his Special Forging Room in Candlelight, carefully retrieving the Void Field Design from his bag.
He then clicked on the design to learn it.
