"Guild Master, the defenses of these two towns are extremely well-fortified. Each town has eight turrets, and normally there are over fifteen thousand players garrisoned across the two towns. Add in the members of the other four second-rate guilds and the total exceeds twenty thousand. The hired NPC guards are also high-level — out of a thousand, over sixty are second-tier. A frontal assault would be very troublesome."
"Moreover, the moment we attack, the other four second-rate guilds will definitely send large forces to help. A rough estimate puts the defensive strength of each town at over a hundred thousand. To take one down, we'd probably need to mobilize the entire Zero Wing Guild."
Bai Qingxue seriously laid out the situation with the two towns, herself quite astonished by their level of defense.
Even for a first-rate guild, having five or six turrets in a town would be considered good — they were expensive, after all. Furthermore, hiring NPC guards was no small expense. For ordinary guild towns, the guards were typically a mix of first-tier and zero-tier, since the higher the guard tier, the greater the cost. Only in key strongholds would they hire the strongest guards available.
Yet both of the Red City Guild's towns were like this. There was no way to first take down a weaker town to chip away at their momentum.
"Alright, have the main force members and the Black God Legion set out now. Our first target will be the nearest one — Green Lin Town." Shi Feng nodded after reviewing the information.
"Just the main force and the Black God Legion?" Bai Qingxue was stunned.
You had to be kidding.
The main force members plus the Black God Legion numbered barely over a thousand. Sending just over a thousand people to take a guild town — even if they were all experts — that probably wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth.
"Of course. Why would we need that many people to take a town?" Shi Feng looked at Bai Qingxue, sounding rather puzzled.
"..." Bai Qingxue was speechless.
It was a town defended by tens of thousands of players, yet in Shi Feng's eyes, it was as if he were going out to casually mop up a random mob...
But since Shi Feng had said so, Bai Qingxue had no choice but to notify the main force members and the Black God Legion to prepare for departure.
Just as Shi Feng was about to lead the army toward Green Lin Town, he suddenly received a communication request from Shui Se Qiangwei.
"How did you get out so quickly?" Shi Feng asked in surprise, looking at Shui Se Qiangwei on the video feed.
He had sent Shui Se Qiangwei and the others into the Sea God Stone Tablet only a few days ago — they shouldn't have been able to come out this soon.
"I'm not fast at all. The time flow inside the Inheritance Space is different from the Divine Realm — one day in the Divine Realm equals four days in there," Shui Se Qiangwei explained.
After she had entered the Sea God Stone Tablet, she too had been startled by the enormous time dilation. If she could have gained experience inside the Inheritance Space, she would have leveled up several times by now, rather than still being at level 50.
"How did it go? Did the class change succeed?" Shi Feng asked.
There were ten inheritances within the Sea God Stone Tablet, and obtaining even one would cause a massive surge in power.
"Hehe, look at this!" Shui Se Qiangwei held up an exquisitely crafted ice-blue crystal scepter. Water constantly flowed around it, radiating a faint aura of divine might.
"Don't tell me you..." Shi Feng stared at the scepter in surprise.
"That's right — I've obtained the Sea God Inheritance and officially changed to a second-tier class," Shui Se Qiangwei said with a touch of pride.
Obtaining the Sea God Inheritance had nearly killed her. Fortunately, she had previously eaten the Moonlight Fruit, which had improved her constitution somewhat, and combined with her combat ability that had already reached the Realm of Subtlety, she had barely managed to pass the inheritance trial. Not only did she receive the Sea God Inheritance, but she also obtained a growth-type scepter suited to it — the Sea Dragon Scepter.
Unlike ordinary growth-type weapons, the Sea Dragon Scepter could grow up to the fragment rank of a legendary-grade item — a scepter capable of pushing the Sea God Inheritance to its absolute limit.
Hearing this, Shi Feng was momentarily stunned.
The Sea God Inheritance!
He had originally thought it would be good enough if Shui Se Qiangwei and the others could obtain any inheritance at all. He certainly hadn't expected anyone to get the Sea God Inheritance so quickly — after all, it surpassed even top-tier inheritances, and obtaining one was extraordinarily difficult.
