Chapter 124: Establishing a Guild Order
In Huawucheng, in the City Lord’s council hall.
“Kalong, are you sure these Fiery Blaze Stones will work?” A deep, steady voice came from a middle-aged man.
“Of course, my lord,” replied a young man named Kalong, nodding.
“I have already tested it. The Fiery Blaze Stone possesses immense magical power; the Magic Crystal can’t even compare! Just a month ago, I detonated a portion of the magical energy in the Fiery Blaze Stone, obliterating that damned group of Undead! That’s how I managed to escape with my life,” Kalong said vividly.
“Is that so… Wen Nuo, what do you think?” The middle-aged man turned his gaze to a man beside him.
Wen Nuo did not respond.
After a moment, he shook his head.
“No, I admit that the Fiery Blaze Stones possess terrifying energy, and using them on the Magic Crystal Cannon would definitely be a massive enhancement to our city defenses. But… taking the initiative to attack is simply too dangerous! We don’t know anything about the enemy’s strength, and the Magic Crystal Cannon is inconvenient to move; if an accident occurs, our actions would be tantamount to seeking death!”
“Hahaha, it seems the general known for his defensive battles is not so impressive after all,” Kalong feigned disappointment, throwing up his hands.
“Has years of defense made you forget how to attack?”
“You!”
“Kalong, do not be disrespectful!” The City Lord interjected quietly.
“Alright, alright—hmph, I already have a countermeasure for the Magic Crystal Cannon,” Kalong pulled out a map.
“Look here, the five cities on the human front form an inverse V-shaped flanking position, and we, Huawucheng, are at the sharp end of this angle.”
“As a military stronghold, General Wen Nuo’s methods are understandable; being able to defend this small city for years indeed requires real skill. However… this isn’t a long-term solution. We must counterattack to show those guys we’re not to be trifled with!”
“We don’t need too many people; just 5,000 elite troops, with one Magic Crystal Cannon for every 100 people. This way, we won’t have to fear any enemy we encounter.”
“No! The Magic Crystal Cannon’s movement speed is too slow; how can it keep up with the marching speed?” Wen Nuo frowned.
“On that point, I referenced an adventurer’s suggestion and disassembled the Magic Crystal Cannon into four parts: the cannon body, cannon head, barrel for storing the Fiery Blaze Stones, and a coolant for rapidly cooling the cannon body. I’ve tested it—if we have enough manpower, it only takes less than 30 seconds to reassemble,” Kalong confidently stated.
Wen Nuo took a deep breath. “It seems you are well prepared.”
Kalong ignored him and asked, “My lord, what do you think?”
“…”
…
Yibo’s group discovered a strange campsite.
A few white Goblins blocked the entrance.
He did not rashly let the members attack; based on his years of MMORPG experience, this could be a neutral open campsite.
Sure enough, he guessed correctly; those Goblins did not actively attack them.
Great! Yibo thought to himself.
What does a neutral campsite mean? It means quests that are entirely different from those in the main city!
Moreover, if there were NPC merchants here, it would mean they wouldn’t need to return to the city for supplies and could level up intensely in the nearby maps!
In other words, if they could develop this campsite’s advantages, they could quickly level up at the beginning and enhance the overall combat power of their guild.
The Goblins showed them no hostility.
So, they began to search for NPCs to converse with and took on many resource collection quests, suggesting that this campsite was still in its early development stage.
“President! I found a merchant!” someone suddenly shouted.
Yibo hurried over and saw that it was a Gremlin.
What is a Gremlin doing in a Goblin campsite?
Putting that aside, he noticed that this Gremlin could not only repair equipment but also sold some strange little trinkets, albeit at exorbitant prices.
“Tianya, call over all the brothers above level 15 in the guild; we might be staying here for the next few days!”
“Okay.”
Before long, Yuhua’s people also discovered this place.
In less than an hour, over 300 high-level players had arrived in the Crimson Plain.
Everyone was actively working on the development of this new force.
This situation naturally startled Nangong and others; they had gone out to level up and came back to find their home stolen!?
However, upon getting closer, they discovered that this group meant no harm.
It seemed that due to the migration story ending, the Gray Wolves also did not actively attack players.
However, they did not understand human language, making communication impossible.
A few players attempted to attack a Gray Wolf, only to be shot full of holes by the Snow Feather Goblins.
This served as a warning to other players; the Goblins and Gray Wolves were in cahoots, and those looking to stir trouble had better consider their own strength. Furthermore, that terrifying giant beetle was around, so they better focus on doing quests.
As a result, the coordinates of the Crimson Plain were exposed, and nearly all high-level players from Yunshui City came to take a look. Many chose to stay here since the Crimson Plain itself had few monsters, but its three adjacent maps had high-level Silver-tier monsters. Delving deeper even revealed Gold-tier monsters—truly a holy land for leveling!
Thanks to this, the home-building efforts of the Snow Feather Goblins and Gray Wolves progressed rapidly.
…
In the afternoon.
The rankings saw changes again.
Unbeknownst to Fenghuayue, she had somehow leveled up by three levels in just one day, reaching level 25 and even surpassing Zane in experience to claim second place.
On the leaderboard, aside from the top three, everyone else was a Mage.
There was no other way; as long as one had ample potions to spend the entire day in the Crimson Plain, combined with resource collection quests, the experience was simply overflowing.
The lowest on the level list was also at level 23.
Even Wú Jìnzhī had been brushed off the list.
Notably, Brother Shiu, with dual attack powers of Thunderstorm and Fire Sea, had temporarily reached fourth place at level 24.
At 4:26 PM.
A sudden World Announcement disrupted everyone’s leveling routine.
World Announcement: Congratulations to player ‘Wú Mèi’ for achieving the first kill of a Gold-tier boss and receiving 3 Evolution Stones, Lucky Ring (Gold Tier at level 25), and a Guild Establishment Order!

World Announcement: Congratulations to player ‘Wú Mèi’ for achieving the first kill of a Gold-tier boss and receiving 3 Evolution Stones, Lucky Ring (Gold Tier at level 25), and a Guild Establishment Order!
The first kill of a Gold-tier boss is gone!?
This World Announcement caused a huge stir among players!
Only a select few possess Evolution Stones, and most players have no idea what they are used for.
But the Lucky Ring is different; a Gold-tier item at level 25!
It very likely is the only Gold-tier item available at this stage!
It’s worth noting that ordinary players struggle against Black Iron tier monsters, let alone high-tier bosses.
The attributes of just the Silver-tier bosses are incredibly overpowered, not to mention the Gold-tier bosses. Based on the sky-high market prices of Silver-tier items, Gold-tier items must have some terrifying special skills or powerful attributes.
Most importantly—Guild Establishment Order!!
Regardless of who uses the Guild Establishment Order first, it will attract widespread attention. The guild can achieve rapid growth, as this is the only guild in the national server until another Guild Establishment Order appears!
