Chapter 719 - Mastery Skyrockets

Ruins of the Imperial Capital:

On the streets filled with wandering undead, Shi Feng controlled the Tier 3 Demon to slaughter Ghouls .

However, the presence of Ghouls was quite rare, and after clearing several streets surrounding the Palace, Shi Feng had only obtained four Bronze Mastery Books . His EXP bar, on the other hand, had risen significantly . Currently, he was at 53% of Level 37 . At most, he would need to grind for another day or so to reach Level 38 .

Just after Shi Feng killed the last Ghoul within the 200-yard restricted area…

Golden light escaped from this Ghoul’s body and flew towards the sky . After the golden light dissipated, a golden beam shot into Shi Feng’s body .

The sound of a system notification suddenly rang by Shi Feng’s ears .

System: You have liberated a bound soul and have received the blessing of the dead . For each Ghoul you kill, you will increase your Thunder Beast Empire Reputation by 1 point .

Killing Ghouls increases my Reputation with the empire? Shi Feng suddenly understood how he could enter the Palace .

One could not casually approach a kingdom’s or empire’s Palace . One first needed a certain amount of Reputation .

Unfortunately, neither a kingdom’s nor an empire’s Reputation was easy to obtain . Generally, one had to complete special quests or obtain the First Clear of Team Dungeons to gain Reputation for a kingdom or empire .

These Thunder Beast Guards were mechanical puppets . They would only carry out the commands they had been given . Hence, if Shi Feng had sufficient Reputation with the empire, he could walk into the Palace unhindered .

Meanwhile, if one wanted to enter a kingdom’s Palace, they needed to become a Count first . As for an empire’s Palace, one had to become a Marquis .

Becoming a Marquis required 5,000 Reputation Points .

Normally, it would be exceedingly difficult to accumulate so much Reputation . Now, however, Shi Feng only needed to kill Ghouls . With this, it would be much easier to rise to the rank of Marquis .

No wonder this quest has a time limit of ten days . It turns out that I need to kill 5,000 Ghouls . Shi Feng began to understand the quest’s time limit .

Ghouls were Level 60 Special Elites . Moreover, there were also many Suffering Souls getting in the way . Shi Feng would have no choice but to kill the Elite monsters while hunting for Ghouls . Even a Level 60 ordinary expert would have to spend quite a long time killing a Level 60 Special Elite Ghoul . Each one could take anywhere from seven to over a dozen minutes depending on the expert’s strength . At that pace, even with ten days, they would not be able to kill 5,000 Ghouls .

To Shi Feng, though, this was not a problem .

One Level 52 Tier 3 Demon took less time to kill a Ghoul than a 20-man team . Fortunately, Shi Feng could control two Tier 3 Demons simultaneously .

Following which, Shi Feng began sweeping through the city for Ghouls .

Previously, as he had to wait for the Ghouls in the restricted area to wander out, Shi Feng’s range of activity had been limited . Hence, his grinding efficiency had been very low . Now that this restriction was gone, he could move from one end of a street to the other, slaughtering everything without pause .

As one Ghoul after another fell, Shi Feng’s Reputation rose .

System: You have killed a Ghoul . Reputation in Thunder Beast Empire +1 .

…

After three hours, Shi Feng’s Reputation had increased to 207 points . He gained Reputation far slower than he had expected .

Although he killed the Special Elites very quickly, there were only so many Ghouls that appeared on a single street . He had to waste a lot of time moving from one Ghoul to another, which significantly reduced his efficiency .

At this rate, I will only complete this part of the quest if I grind nonstop for two days . The remaining time should be enough to lift the curse on the city and complete the quest . Just as Shi Feng was lost in thought, he heard a warning from the system .

This warning was a notification telling him that someone was calling from the real world . Normally, the game would only warn players when communication with the outside world had been severed, and players were unable to accept real world calls from inside God’s Domain .

“Did something happen?” Shi Feng didn’t think too much about it as he immediately swiped his fingers, calling up the system interface and clicking the “Logout” button .

Previously, he had told Fire Dance and the others that he was working on a quest in a special area and that contact with the outside world was unavailable . Hence, they would not call him unless it was urgent .

It was 3 am in the real world . Normal people would not call at this time of night .

For Blackie and the others to contact him in the dead of night, the only possibility was that something had happened to Zero Wing .

Darkness surrounded Shi Feng as he stepped out of his virtual gaming cabin .

The ringing from the quantum watch Shi Feng wore on his wrist echoed throughout the silent bedroom . Taking a look at the watch’s display, Shi Feng discovered that it was Blackie .

“Blackie, what’s so urgent? Has something happened in God’s Domain?” Shi Feng asked after answering the call .

“Brother Feng, the Stoneclaw Mountains… something has happened! Blackie said in a panic after the call connected . “Of the 300 members in the Dark Gods Legion, nearly all of them have been wiped out . Only a dozen or so managed to return to Stone Forest Town . ”

“Impossible!” Shi Feng was dumbfounded . “Could it be the Star Alliance? That shouldn’t be possible!”

Although the Dark Gods Legion only had 300 members, their equipment was first-class . Their combat techniques were also top-notch . Furthermore, the Dark Gods Legion had a Berserk Skill like the Power of Darkness . Even if the Star Alliance sent out its best fighters, they could never annihilate the Legion .

“Initially, I wondered the same thing . However, based on what the survivors told us, the people who attacked them did not seem like members of the Star Alliance . They weren’t Red Names either . They were a group of independent players . The instant they appeared, they killed off a few dozen members of the Legion . Even after everyone activated the Power of Darkness, they couldn’t hold their ground against those independent players .

“Some of the more powerful players even killed Legion members in just a few moves . Before they could even react, they were dead…”

The news had also shocked Blackie . Hence, he had contacted Shi Feng immediately .

Aside from Zero Wing’s main force, the Dark Gods Legion was the most powerful team in Zero Wing . Even throughout Star-Moon Kingdom, the Legion ranked at the very top in terms of combat power . The Legion also had the Power of Darkness .

Yet, they had been massacred…

News of this incident had already spread throughout Star-Moon Kingdom . If they did not deal with this matter properly, Zero Wing’s reputation would plunge to the darkest pits of the abyss .

“A group of independent experts with top-tier equipment and skills? Could it be the Flower of Seven Sins?” Of all of Shi Feng’s possible enemies, only the Flower of Seven Sins was capable of such a feat . “However, wasn’t the organization’s target Zero Wing’s main force and upper echelon?”

Hearing Shi Feng suggest that it was the Flower of Seven Sins’ doing, Blackie was momentarily stunned .

Blackie agreed with Shi Feng’s deduction . Only, he never imagined that the Flower of Seven Sins would be so powerful .

Initially, he had doubted that any power could easily defeat Zero Wing’s Dark Gods Legion . Even if the Flower of Seven Sins took action, the organization would have to expend a lot of effort to take the Legion down . In the end, however, he had been sorely mistaken .

If the Dark Gods Legion had already suffered such a fate, Zero Wing’s main force was in trouble .
