Chapter 1266 - Dragon's Blood
Apocalypse Empire, Deathwhisper Hill:
An army of over a hundred thousand Undead guarded the Deathwhisper Fortress . A legion of 1,000 players clashed with the constant stream of Undead .
These Undead wore tattered armor and wielded swords and shields . Their movements were organized, and even the weakest among them was a Level 42 Elite, while the strongest included Level 46 Lords .
If a normal, 1,000-man legion faced this army, they would be terrified . However, this 1,000-man legion killed the Undead with a militaristic efficiency, acting as if this situation were just a matter of course .
Several hundred MTs raised their shields as they held the Undead back, none of them even attacking the monsters as they focused on defense . With the limited space, the MTs maneuvered their shields and displayed impressive technique as they prevented the Undead from breaking past their line . As for the DPS players behind the shield wall, they launched an unrelenting assault . Occasionally, they used AOE attacks, dealing high amounts of damage to a cluster of monsters .
"Good . DPS, prioritize Chieftain rank and above monsters . Healers, keep an eye on your Mana . If it falls below 30%, retreat, switch players with a back-up healer, and recover . " Phoenix Rain commanded her legion while attacking a Lord ranked monster . She remained wholly unperturbed despite facing down an Undead army led by 100 Lords . It seemed as if this battle were completely under her control .
As Phoenix Rain was commanding the battle, Blue Phoenix, who wielded a dark blue crystal staff that radiated the Epic rank glow and wore a complete Level 45 Dark-Gold Set Equipment for Elementalists, walked up to her leader's side . Blue Phoenix then reported quietly, "Big Sis Rain, we just received news that a Shop in Chaos Rock City is selling the popular Sea God's Blessing . Moreover, the potion only costs 1 Gold per bottle . "
"What? Why is it so cheap?" When Phoenix Rain heard Blue Phoenix's report, a hint of surprise slipped through her calm exterior . "Is the information reliable? Or is that Shop just trying to become famous, selling a small number for such a low price?"
The Sea God's Blessing had become a strategic resource, which God's Domain's superpowers competed over . Its effects were wondrous for exploring secret ruins and raiding Dungeons . Among the Sea God's Blessings sold in the Apocalypse Empire, Phoenix Rain had only obtained a little over 500 bottles . Miracle and Battle Wolves had snatched the majority of the potions . Meanwhile, she was saving these Sea God's Blessing as a trump card to raid large-scale Hell Mode Team Dungeons and the competition on Thunder Island .
Previously, the cheapest Sea God's Blessings in the Apocalypse Empire's Auction House had sold for 6 Gold . Even after deducting the processing fees, the players selling the potion would get over 5 Gold per bottle, yet someone had decided to sell it for 1 Gold . No matter how she looked at it, this felt like fake news .
She had long since investigated the Sea God's Blessing . The potion could only be purchased from the Sea God's Temple . The only way to obtain a large quantity in a short time right now was to trade in Runic Crystals . However, Runic Crystals were even rarer than Magic Crystals . Other than defeating Boss-grade sea monsters, the only reliable way of obtaining them was to synthesize Runic Fragments . Unfortunately, the synthesis was expensive . Initial estimates put the cost of one bottle of Sea God's Blessing at a minimum of 1 Gold, 50 Silver . If unlucky, the potion might even cost 2 Gold .
Although her people had tried that method, the results had been disappointing . After all, they knew very few NPC Master Alchemists . Moreover, unless they achieved a certain level of Favorability with these NPCs, they would not receive any help . Most importantly, each Sea God's Temple had a limited number of Sea God's Blessings . By the time they had amassed a large number of Runic Crystals, the Sea God's Temple they had visited had run out of stock…
"I thought the same thing . But according to our reports, the Shop has already sold more than 1,000 bottles . Many large Guilds have given up on purchasing the potion in the Auction House . Only independent teams with flimsy information networks are bidding on the potions," Blue Phoenix explained .
"This is interesting . Have you found out who runs that Shop yet?" Phoenix Rain asked, chuckling softly .
"Yes . The House of Seas owns the Shop . It is a warehouse-type Shop that the House of Seas operates to collect materials and potions that cannot be found at sea . " Blue Phoenix then sent Phoenix Rain the related information .
Chaos Rock City ranked in the 10s among the many NPC cities in the Apocalypse Empire . It was insignificant compared to the imperial capital . With enough money early in the game, anyone could obtain land in the NPC cities ranked beyond 10th place; none of the superpowers would pay any attention to these small cities .
