Chapter 1528 Hidden Promotion Condition
When Shi Feng revealed the thick tome, the architects eyes glowed.
This isan Advanced Construction Design!
Ordinary players might not understand what kind of design Shi Feng had shown them, but these werent ordinary players; they stood at the apex of Star-Moon Kingdoms architects.
An ordinary construction design only consisted of several sheets of paper. Meanwhile, designs with enough pages to become books were Advanced Construction Designs. The thicker the book was, the more difficult the design would be to construct. Unlike the buildings in the real world, Gods Domains Advanced Constructions required Secret Runes and Magic Arrays. If these were imperfect in the slightest way and couldnt connect, they wouldnt function and would have to be redrawn.
Fortunately, the entire pattern wouldnt need to be redrawn if mistakes occurred with some runes or arrays. Players simply needed to rework the failed symbols and sacrifice a few extra materials. However, since the necessary materials were precious, the Guild would feel a slight sting in its pockets if an architect failed too many times.
Meanwhile, what truly excited these architects was the fact that every Advanced Construction Design had a unique set of Secret Runes for players to learn. Learning these Secret Runes would help them when they designed their own in the future. They would then have an easier time climbing to the Master rank.
Guild Leader, while we can complete the foundation of the Four Towers of Elements, Im afraid the magic arrays for the core part are too complex. They are at least Advanced Magic Arrays. We arent capable of drawing them right now After taking a look through the Elemental Towers design, Happy Mo discovered the designs most challenging aspect.
Although they frequently researched magic arrays, they were only capable of completing Basic Magic Arrays at the moment. They were still some time from being able to draw Intermediate Magic Arrays. Meanwhile, the Four Towers of Elements core required Advanced Magic Arrays, which were used to harvest energy within the Seven Luminaries Crystals.
Architects of their rank werent yet capable of achieving this feat.
Your task is to build the towers foundations. Ill draw the magic arrays for the cores. You just need to deal with the Secret Runes and Magic Circuits, Shi Feng explained.
Youll draw them, Guild Leader? The Lifestyle players were stunned when they heard Shi Fengs plan. They stared at the man as if he were a monster.
Not only was Shi Feng a Master Forger, but he could also draw Advanced Magic Arrays. How were they supposed to compare to someone like this?
What these players didnt realize was that players had to learn to draw magic arrays to develop their subclasses. In the past, players had only discovered this fact after reaching Level 100. Regardless of the subclass, players would encounter magic arrays as they increased their Lifestyle ranks. Only, the difficulty varied depending on the subclass.
For example, forgers, alchemists, and engineers needed to be able to draw Intermediate Magic Arrays at the very minimum if they wanted to reach the Master rank. The requirement was even higher to become a Grandmaster. When crafting a higher-quality item, the production process would require more Mana. Without a magic array to help guide the Mana to the item, the production process would fail.
Because of this, the various large Guilds fought over the rare Magic Array Designs, particularly the high-ranked ones. This was also why powerful Lifestyle players preferred to join powerful Guilds. As an individual, not only was it difficult to obtain high-quality materials in large quantities, but it was also extremely difficult to collect a large variety of Magic Array Designs. Such a task required sufficient strength and a large number of players.
This was the reason that the various kingdoms and empires restricted the circulation of Magic Array Designs.
Aside from the Four Towers of Elements Design, Shi Feng had also revealed the Advanced Restaurant Design and instructed the Advanced Architects to research it together. With this, they could improve their Secret Rune standards far more quickly and complete the Four Towers of Elements with more precision.
Seeing this, the other architects present could not help their envy. Now, they were even more eager to reach Advanced rank. After all, there was a massive difference between the amount of GCPs they could obtain from constructing an Advanced Construction and a Basic Construction.
Moreover, Shi Feng had stated that as long as they qualified and had enough GCPs, they could purchase a private house in Zero Wing City.
Following which, every architect went into action.
While the Advanced Architects focused on the Four Towers of Elements, the other architects focused on the hotels, bars, private houses, Shops, the Battle Arena, and other Basic Constructions.
Elsewhere, Shi Feng published the news of Zero Wing City on Star-Moon Kingdoms official forums. After all, the city wouldnt remain a secret for long, and with how massive Zero Wing had become, the Guild certainly had quite a few spies among its ranks. Rather than letting only the other Guilds in on the secret, it was more beneficial to announce it to the kingdom, increasing the city and Guilds fame.
When the information went public, a sensation swept through the kingdom.
The spectacular view from the city alone was mesmerizing, not to mention its functions.
However, players were more excited about the citys Mana density.
The citys Mana density is so high even without any Magic Towers?
With this, Zero Wing will definitely rise in Gods Domain. Once Zero Wing finishes constructing Magic Towers, the citys Mana density will be even higher than in Stone Forest Town.
But why is Zero Wing City constructed in Witchs Hill? Although the average levels of the areas maps are quite high, their resources are average at best. They chose a far better location for Stone Forest Town.
Zero Wing might have other reasons. Just look at Witchs Hill. It has the high-level resource map, Shadow Forest, and the hell Mode Regional Dungeon, Mournful Ruins. When players reach Level 60, Witchs Hill will be a prime leveling spot.
I wonder when Zero Wing will open its city to the public?
Thats right! When is Zero Wing going to open the city?!
It would be great if our adventurer team can garrison in Zero Wing City. Hopefully, the private houses wont be too expensive.
Although Shi Feng had only released a small amount of information, it was enough to stir players interest.
When the various large Guilds saw Shi Fengs post, some celebrated, while others wept. Those who celebrated were the Guilds whom the city couldnt threaten right now. After all, Gods Domains mainstream players were still some distance from Level 40. It would still be some time before mainstream players would head to Level 50-70 areas like Witchs Hill to develop.
Once players reached Level 50, Zero Wing City would become a disaster.
Gather more manpower immediately! We need to earn as many Contribution Points as possible during Bewildering Forest Towns defense!
For a time, the various large Guilds assembled and dispatched their forces to Bewildering Forest Town.
If their Guilds wished to develop quickly, they had to deal with their lack of Mounts as quickly as possible. Bewildering Forest Towns defense was the best opportunity to do so.
As a result, more players flooded to the already-crowded town. Among the new arrivals, the lowest level was Level 40, while the majority were Level 42 and 43.
As one large Guild after another arrived with its forces in Bewildering Forest Town, many of the independent players, who were there to earn some Contribution Points, were amazed.
Expert players, which were normally difficult to encounter, swarmed the town. Their equipment was simply blinding. Normally, players in full Level 40 Dark-Gold Equipment attracted a lot of attention, but now, these players were a dime a dozen. In fact, they barely attracted any attention.
Many of the players who had come to Bewildering Forest Town wore full sets of Level 45 Dark-Gold Equipment, but some even wielded weapons and equipment that radiated the Epic rank glow effect.
Among the various large Guilds that had arrived, one Guild stood out. Upon this Guilds arrival, the other Guilds in the Teleportation Hall opened a path for its members. Not only were these Guild members levels quite high, but the other Guilds upper echelons also drooled over their equipment. In addition, every one of these players sat comfortably atop their Mounts, with the majority riding pitch-black warhorses. These players also wore a black cape draped over their shoulders. As they moved, they looked like a well-trained army.
The several dozen players leading this group even rode Bronze rank and above Mounts. Compared to these players, the other Guilds members looked like hoodlums.
What Guild is that? Its so amazing!
Have you never been to a neutral map outside of Star-Moon Kingdom? You dont know about Heavens Burial?
Heavens Burial?! How is this possible?! I remember that Heavens Burial suffered a devastating defeat when it tried to compete with Zero Wing for the position of number one Guild. How does it have so many high-level members? They even have Mounts!
You mustve never been to a neutral map before, then. After Zero Wing defeated the Guild, Heavens Burial shifted its focus. Now, it thrives in neutral maps. Have you heard of Bonewind Town?
Ive heard of it. I think its one of the three Orc Towns players captured after the Orc Empires rise.
Let me tell you, then. Heavens Burial is the Guild that captured Bonewind Town. Because of that, a large corporation decided to invest in the Guild. Heavens Burial used those investments to recruit a large number of experts and well-known Workshops from other kingdoms and empires. Now, the Guilds strength has reached a new level. If Heavens Burial clashed with Zero Wing in the fields now, it might have a chance of victory.
As the crowd discussed Heavens Burial, another series of flashes illuminated Bewildering Forest Towns Teleportation Hall. Unlike Heavens Burials members, however, none of these players rode Mounts. But despite standing there quietly, the crowd couldnt help but turn towards them.
Look! Zero Wings members are here!
