Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God - Chapter 1667

Chapter 1667

Chapter 1667 – Magic King

The fact that the Earth Dragon had dropped a Hero’s Chapter, let alone a Hero Chapter for Craig Midlands, had truly surprised Shi Feng .

In God’s Domain, there were 32 Heroes that could only be summoned with specific Hero’s Chapters . They were also the strongest Heroes players could summon using the Hero’s Chapters . In the past, these 32 Heroes had been known as the Thirty-two Pillars . Based on historical records, every one of these 35 Heros had cleared the complete God’s Trial and gained the Ancient Gods’ recognition .

If nurtured properly, any one of these Thirty-two Pillars could easily become the guardian of an entire city .

This was because these 32 Heroes had the potential to reach Level 200, Tier 5 at the very minimum . Moreover, because they were Heroes, their Basic Attributes were higher than players of the same level and tier . When players nurtured these Heroes to their peaks, only Tier 6 God-ranked players had any chance against them .

Among the Thirty-two Pillars, the Magic King, Craig Midlands, ranked 17th . He had been a famous NPC in God’s Domain who had mastered the six major elements . No ordinary Tier 5 NPC could compare to his strength .

Craig Midlands had once fended off a siege that included 20 Tier 5 players and successfully protected the city he had been tasked to guard . He had even killed 11 of the Tier 5 experts . The Hero’s display had been so impressive that it had even stupefied the Guild that had nurtured and summoned him .

Nobody had expected the Magic King to be that powerful .

Normally, even a Tier 5 NPC would fall if 20 Tier 5 players ganged up on him, yet the Magic King had resisted and won .

However, Craig’s victory over the team of Tier 5 players was not what that shocked the world the most . Rather, players had been astounded by the Spells he had used .

With his mastery over six major elements, not only did his attacks carry great destructive power, but his attack methods were also varied and complex . His attacks had basically no weaknesses . If a Tier 5 player had tried to face him one-on-one, they would’ve been beaten to a pulp .

Moreover, for every element Craig Midlands grasped, he could create one Elemental Doppelganger . Although each doppelganger only had 80% of Craig’s Attributes, they were far stronger than players of the same level and tier .

In other words, trying to fight Craig Midlands was on par with fighting seven Tier 5 NPCs .

With this, I’ll have a capable protector for Zero Wing City . Shi Feng clearly remembered that the Guild that had acquired the Magic King, Craig Midlands in his previous life had only been a first-rate Guild . Naturally, the Guild had used Craig to protect its main city, and due to the NPC’s presence, not even super-first-rate and Super Guilds had dared to strike that city .

If he used Craig to protect Zero Wing City, the city’s defensibility would rise to an entirely new level .

Shortly after Shi Feng and the other Zero Wing members began their rest on the fifth floor, Melancholic Smile contacted him .

“Guild Leader, what did you do in the Primordial Divine Ruin? Many large Guilds have come to Candlelight to negotiate cooperation,” Melancholic Smile asked inquisitively .

As many as eight first-rate Guilds had approached Candlelight, seeking cooperation, not to mention the second- and third-rate Guilds . Watching these Guilds upper echelons enter White River City’s Candlelight Trading Firm with their entourages has been spectacular . The scene had also caused a huge commotion throughout the city . For a moment, she had even thought that these Guilds had intended to attack the trading firm .

“It’s nothing . We just got to the ruin’s fifth floor before the other Guilds,” Shi Feng said, chuckling . “What kind of cooperation are they looking for?”

“They’re asking to purchase some of our Guild’s Basic Combat Techniques and opportunities to learn Advanced Combat Techniques . Though, slots to enter Primordial City are their main goal . They are willing to pay with Magic Crystals and top-tier weapons and equipment,” Melancholic Smile said .

The bounty war between Zero Wing and Heaven’s Burial was still in full swing . As a result, Zero Wing burned through funds, weapons, and equipment each day . If Zero Wing could sell the services these large Guilds requested for top-tier weapons and equipment, it would help the Guild out a great deal .

Unfortunately, this matter would have a massive impact on the Guild, and she couldn’t make the decision by herself .

Their ideas sound quite solid .  Shi Feng began to ruminate on the matter . A moment later, he said, “Alright, we will agree to their conditions . However, they can only offer payment with Magic Crystals . Moreover, we will only sell the opportunity to learn Basic Combat Techniques . Each learning opportunity will cost 1,000 Magic Crystals . This condition isn’t limited to these Guilds, either; it will stand for all players . As for the Guilds’ other requests, refuse them . ”

Due to the appearance of the Primordial Divine Ruin, Basic Combat Techniques had become more commonplace in God’s Domain . Even so, pitifully few first-rate Guilds had secured any techniques from the ruin . The other Guilds couldn’t even make it inside .

However, as players unlocked more of the Primordial Divine Ruin, the number of players allowed inside would increase . Moreover, as players continued to grow stronger, it would only be a matter of time before more Guilds secured Basic Combat Techniques .

Rather than wait for such a future, it’d be better if Zero Wing took advantage of the current situation and sold learning opportunities, making a fortune . In fact, many large Guilds had openly sold learning opportunities for Basic Combat Techniques in the past . He simply executed this business strategy ahead of time . In any case, he had obtained three Basic Combat Techniques on his way to the fifth underground floor, with two from the Earth Dragon .

As for the Advanced Combat Techniques, there was no way he’d sell them . Both in his previous life and in this one, Advanced Combat Techniques were a Guild’s core secret .

While Basic Combat Techniques helped players build a solid foundation, they did very little to improve players’ combat standards . Only Advanced Combat Techniques had a considerable effect on players’ combat standards .

“One thousand crystals per chance? Isn’t that price a little too high?” Melancholic Smile asked awkwardly .

Currently, Magic Crystals sold for 30 Silver each on the market; thus, 1,000 Magic Crystals were worth 300 Gold . However, while the various Guilds might accept a price of 300 Gold, that wouldn’t necessarily be the case for 1,000 Magic Crystals . Every large Guild desperately needed Magic Crystals right now, and players wouldn’t necessarily learn a combat technique in its entirety on the first attempt .

“It’s fine . Just tell them . Whether or not they accept our price is up to them . Nobody’s forcing them to learn our combat techniques,” Shi Feng said, chuckling .

Although Basic Combat Techniques were the weakest of the bunch, they weren’t easily found . Players could not obtain one just because they wanted to . Despite the Primordial Divine Ruin activating some time ago, only a small number of Basic Combat Techniques had dropped thus far . Moreover, different Basic Combat Techniques offered different kinds of benefits–some improved attack methods, some improved footwork, and so on .

Just because a player had learned a Basic Combat Technique, that did not mean that other techniques would be useless . On the contrary, the more Basic Combat Techniques a player learned, the sturdier their foundation would become . With a strong foundation, players would have a much easier time learning Advanced Combat Techniques . In fact, players may even be able to create their own Basic or Advanced Combat Technique .

“I’ll relay the message to these Guilds and announce it to the public, then,” Melancholic Smile said . After giving the matter some thought, she saw the logic in Shi Feng’s decision .

Other Guilds still treated their Basic Combat Techniques like family heirlooms . Even core members had to pay a significant amount of GCPs to learn the techniques . Since they had approached Zero Wing to purchase its family heirlooms, it was only natural that the Guild demand a higher price .

Moreover, there were many wealthy individuals among God’s Domain’s adventurer teams and independent experts . Generally, adventurer teams and independent experts had no opportunity to learn Basic Combat Techniques, so they’d be more than willing to pay the price .

After disconnecting his call with Melancholic Smile, Shi Feng sent out a few scouts to explore the fifth floor .

In less than ten minutes, Shi Feng received a report from one of the scouts .

“Guild Leader, I found a gigantic magic array in the forest . There’s also an NPC in the center of the array,” a scouting Assassin reported .

“An NPC? Send me your coordinates . ” Shi Feng was instantly ecstatic .

As far as he knew, there shouldn’t be an NPCs on the Primordial Divine Ruin’s rest floors . Since one of his scouts had found one, that NPC must be related to Primordial City .
