Chapter 231 Help Yourself
Such was the case with Si Yejing. She was wearing a night suit that was popular among assassins with her character name concealed. Only her affiliation–Midsummer Guild was shown above her head.
Instantly, the Little Fox opposite to them frowned because Xiao Feng sounded rather provoking and didn’t show any respect for the Wolf Guild.
Instantly, Little Fox cast a hostile look at Si Yejing, because Xiao Feng was standing behind her, which made Si Yejing look like the leader. And her guild name was shown above her head–a guild that was not second to Wolf Guild!
“Tianlong City is a popular place among all the guilds in the server. Why do the players of Midsummer Guild come to our place?”
Little Fox looked at Si Yejing and said in a not friendly tone. In her eyes, only Midsummer Guild, the guild at the same level with Wolf Guild, dared to show little respect for Wolves.
“…”
Si Yejing rolled her eyes at Xiao Feng angrily. She knew that she was fooled by Xiao Feng but she didn’t say anything but showed her character name.
She never acted in the name of Midsummer Guild.
“What… Master Night Cooer!”
Upon seeing the character name on Si Yejing’s head, Little Fox was shocked at once. The players of the Wolf Guild who had been hostile now all looked at each other in surprise.
Obviously, in terms of Si Yejing’s current fame, she held a considerable prestige among the players of the Huaxia District.
“You are Master Night Cooer…”
Little Fox gave an embarrassed face and still spoke after thinking it over, “May I know why you are here? Although this map belongs to our terrain, if you need to finish a quest here, there won’t be any problem.”
She still showed great respect for Si Yejing because Si Yejing was a master ranked No. 2 on the Celebrity List anyway. Little Fox was not foolish enough to offend a renowned master.
However, she also made her point clearly. If Si Yejing was only passing by, she could allow it. On the contrary, if Si Yejing was up to anything else, she would not stand aside and do nothing. After all, this was the terrain of Wolves!
“Why did you kick me?”
Xiao Feng suddenly said confusedly, because Si Yejing kicked him off guard and meanwhile stared at him.
Si Yejing didn’t need to rely on the fame of Midsummer indeed but it didn’t mean that she had nothing to do with Midsummer. Since she was linked with it, what she did would directly affect the relationship between Midsummer and Wolves.
Si Yejing got into the trouble for breaking in with Xiao Feng. Of course she wouldn’t make herself become the cause for the worsening of the relation between Midsummer and Wolves, so she gave Xiao Feng a kick.
“Fine…”
Xiao Feng shook his head and stopped kidding. Now that he found the map, he would never go back without any fruits, so he also took off the decorating fashionable suit and showed his original outfit.
Actually, when Si Yejing kicked Xiao Feng, Little Fox and other players of the Wolf Guild noticed the “interaction” between them and all looked to Xiao Feng in confusion. They wondered who was so close to Master Night Cooer. This guy neither showed the guild name above his head nor looked like a player of the Midsummer Guild.
Nevertheless, when Xiao Feng showed the outlook of his equipment–the Skeleton Mask, Golden Bone Armor and Dragon’s Skull, Little Fox and the other players of Wolves were instantly shocked with staring eyes and couldn’t help retreating.
“Master… Master Healer!”
Xiao Feng’s equipment outlook was as famous as his name, which had showed up in many videos posted in the forums of the Huaxia District. Hence, once Xiao Feng got rid of the fashionable suit effect, he would be recognized at once.
The players of the Wolves were startled and even Little Fox was shocked in suspicion. After sizing Xiao Feng up and confirming his identity, she couldn’t help saying.
“It is such an honor that Master Healer and Master Night Cooer come to visit our place.”
Little Fox said to Xiao Feng but her tone didn’t seem angry but grieved. In addition to her coquettish eyes, her words just couldn’t sound serious.
Yet, Little Fox suddenly had a feeling that Night Cooer appeared hostile towards her.
“Haha, I am doing a task in the Blackrock. I found a hidden map nearby accidentally so I came here to take a look.” Xiao Feng made an excuse.
“Come on. You must have preyed on our hidden map before, right? My sister told me that she spilt the beans before. Last time when you came to the Dwarf City, I had already doubted that you were actually targeting this map.” Little Fox rolled her eyes at Xiao Feng and said in a helpless tone.
“Since you two masters have found this map, we don’t have anything to hide. Neither can we stop you from anything. But this is the case. The map is of special strategic significance and value, which is an important resource site for the Wolves. It is okay for you two masters to pass the instance zone but please don’t divulge any information relating to the map. Otherwise, even if it is Midsummer Guild, we Wolves will start the war fearlessly.”
Little Fox kept referring to them as masters. Her tone was quite helpless but she still took one step back and said sternly.
She also knew that it was actually better if it was Midsummer Guild that found the map, for the Wolves could still reach a consensus with Midsummer and ask them to leave in light of the fame of Wolves.
However, it was these two masters who came here, the No. 1 and No. 2 players on the Level List and Celebrity List of the Huaxia District. No matter how famous the Wolf Guild was, it was useless.
Most importantly, even if they turned hostile, the Wolves were no match for the two masters.
Therefore, Little Fox had no other choice but to compromise. She also believed that the president wouldn’t blame her for making the decision.
“Rest assured. We will only kill creeps and bosses here. We can assure you that there won’t a third person to know about the map other than us.”
Xiao Feng promised to Little Fox. Although her eyes were full of doubts, she had no way out.
“Then help yourselves then. I will notify the guild members within the map and ask them not to disturb you.”
Little Fox left resentfully. Xiao Feng wouldn’t just stand there, so he walked deep into the Jungle of Trapped Beast with Si Yejing.
A group of players of Wolves responsible for guarding the entrance could only see them leave. Their job was to guard the entrance and keep outsiders from entering the hidden map. Now it was not that they didn’t feel like stopping them but they really couldn’t. They couldn’t even handle one master of such a level, let alone two.
“What map is this on earth? How come you are so excited?”
Having been deep in the Jungle of Trapped Beast without any trace of the players of the Wolves, Si Yejing couldn’t help asking Xiao Feng.
“It is a terrific place, where skill books may drop!” Xiao Feng answered and looked around, trying to find the traces of the creeps on the map.
“What? The map where skill books may drop? The Wolves have taken up such an important resource site?” Si Yejing couldn’t help shouting out loud.
The wild maps varied in values. For instance, on some maps, the creeps only dropped pet eggs; on some maps, the creeps dropped precious materials for minor roles; yet, on some maps, the creeps dropped rare objects for quests.
These maps were all important resource sites, which belonged to the hotly contested spots among various guilds, because the benefits were considerable. After all, whether a guild developed for the sake of interests, they must have resource and economy. Likewise, sufficient resources and economy would accelerate the development of a guild.
For example, the White Spirits Flowers, the object of the level-5 priest quest that Xiao Feng monopolized in the Novice Village brought a lot of benefits for him at that time.
In the Novice Village, the White Spirits Flowers were only generated on the map. It was fair enough to say that if you were capable enough to take up the map, you would be able to keep monopolizing the White Spirits Flowers. Any priest who wanted to finish the quest could only buy from you. Otherwise, they could never finish the quest. As a result, the interests were huge. Even the price of the White Spirits Flowers was set by you at will.
Therefore, so were these resource sites. No matter which one you could occupy, or multiple ones, you would harvest considerate benefits. It was just like if you occupied a mine of advanced ore and allowed the players of different guilds to exploit, then the advanced ore would bring you a substantial income.
In fact, Xiao Feng had learnt from Qian Duoduo that the Wolf Guild would consign hundreds of skill books for sale on commission to Treasure Pavilion every day. This was quite surprising. Basically, most of the skill books of the Treasure Pavilion were from the Wolf Guild.
Based on the market price of the Huaxia District, even a skill book of the most common level was sold for more than several gold coins, that was, a few hundred dollars. The more advanced the skill book was, the higher the value would be.
In other words, if the Wolf Guild got hundreds of skill books only from the hidden map, the fixed income would be tens of thousands of dollars. If some advanced or rare skill books dropped once in a while, they could be sold at a price several times higher! The income was imaginably considerable!
No wonder the Wolf Guild paid high attention to the hidden map and forbade outsiders from going inside. Even the ordinary members of the guild didn’t know about it. Only the core members could be qualified to learn about the secret. All the arrangements were only to make a fortune without being noticed and occupy this important resource site!
Many guilds were doing the same thing. So was the Midsummer Guild. The several maps outside the Tianlong City, where high-value materials for minor roles would massively drop were all occupied by the Midsummer Guild.
“That is to say… We are about to make a fortune?” Si Yejing immediately said with slight excitement after hearing the explanation of Xiao Feng.
