Chapter 988 – The Seven Treasures’ First Appearance

Upon hearing Zero Wing’s name, the players on the street turned to look at the flag flying from the Guild Hall’s roof.

“It really is a six-winged emblem!”

“What?!”

“Star-Moon Kingdom’s number one Guild is actually starting a Branch Guild here?!”

Many people felt chills crawl down their spines, excitement overwhelming them as they stared at the Guild flag. None of them could believe their eyes.

Although Lake Heart City was in the Black Dragon Empire, the empire neighbored Star-Moon Kingdom. They were up-to-date about the nearby kingdoms. They also frequently purchased a copy the God’s Domain Experts List. Everybody knew about Zero Wing’s Guild Leader, Black Flame. Moreover, the ruler of the Black Dragon Empire’s imperial capital, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, had suffered at Zero Wing’s hands.

With such a powerful Guild appearing in Lake Heart City, how could they contain their excitement?

“Since Zero Wing is coming here… does this mean we’ll have a chance to join Zero Wing?”

“I guess so? When a Guild develops in a new city, it normally recruits some of the local players to expand gradually.”

“I heard that the benefits Zero Wing offers are awesome; they are even better than what first-rate Guilds offer. In other Guilds, I heard that only core members get to use the Guild Hall’s Private Rooms. On the other hand, one only needs to be an elite member in Zero Wing to rent a Private Room and accumulate the Double EXP buff.”

“I’ve always wanted to join Zero Wing. Unfortunately, it costs too much to teleport from the Black Dragon Empire to White River City. Now, though, I don’t have to worry about teleportation fees.”

Anticipation filled these independent players’ hearts as the ogled Zero Wing’s new Guild Residence. To ordinary players, traveling to other countries was too expensive. Even if they spent their entire fortune traveling to White River City, there was no guarantee that they would be accepted into the Guild.

Furthermore, they had long since familiarized themselves with Lake Heart City and its surroundings. If they started developing in an unknown city, their leveling speed and daily income would decrease drastically. In addition, unlike in Lake Heart City, they wouldn’t have companions to rely on in White River City.

Now, however, times had changed.

Shortly after Zero Wing’s Branch Guild had appeared, news of this matter quickly spread throughout the city.

Some rejoiced, while others grew worried. To independent players, Zero Wing’s appearance was good news. To the local Guilds, however, nothing was good about this development.

When the Crimson Castle Guild, the second-rate Guild ruling over Lake Heart City, received the news, it had held an emergency meeting among its upper echelons.

“Why has Zero Wing suddenly shown up in a backwater city like Lake Heart City?”

“If Zero Wing really intends on developing here, they will target the high-resource areas we usually occupy.”

“What’s there to be afraid of? Even if Zero Wing is powerful in Star-Moon Kingdom, this is Lake Heart City. This is our territory. We are far more familiar with the city’s surroundings than Zero Wing. Even if a war breaks out between our Guilds, the winner isn’t set in stone.”

Crimson Castle’s upper echelons discussed the situation heatedly.

Although the leveling areas around Lake Heart City were not particularly beneficial, once players familiarized themselves with the area, their leveling speed would increase. Moreover, unlike other cities, there were very few Guilds in Lake Heart City. This allowed Crimson Castle to obtain plenty of raw materials very easily.

“There is no need to get too worked up about this. I have heard that the situation in Star-Moon Kingdom isn’t very stable. Zero Wing won’t focus too much on conquering Lake Heart City. Moreover, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion has a grudge against Zero Wing. If we report Zero Wing’s arrival to the Pavilion, the Pavilion will seek vengeance,” the dignified, middle-aged man in the Guild Leader’s seat said as he watched the arguing players before him. In a deep tone, he said, “During this period, keep an eye on Zero Wing’s members. Report everything to the Pavilion.”

Hearing their Guild Leader’s order, the Crimson Castle’s upper echelons fell silent and nodded in agreement.
