Outside of Abyssal Star City...
After the magic barrier enveloping Abyssal Star City disappeared, the millions of players outside looked at the city eagerly.
The changes to Abyssal Star City were visible to the naked eye.
The citys size and the mana it radiated to the surroundings were enough to let everyone understand that Abyssal Star City had already surpassed small NPC Cities.
A huge commotion had even started on the Miniature Ancient Worlds official forums because of Abyssal Star Citys changes. Everyone eagerly discussed what sort of changes might have taken place in Abyssal Star City, what they should do immediately after entering the city, and what they could do to make money via Abyssal Star City.
At this time, even the Flower of Seven Sins, the Asura Mercenary Alliances enemy, was filled with curiosity toward Abyssal Star City.
Abyssal Star City was already fated to become the Miniature Ancient Worlds number one player-owned city. However, exactly how much attention this number one city could attract from the Miniature Ancient Worlds players and powers was crucial for the Flower of Seven Sins.
Now that the Miniature Ancient World had become a training ground for the various Gods Domains rookies, it would more or less attract the attention of some conglomerates. If Abyssal Star City attracted enough players and powers, the Greater Worlds conglomerates might decide to invest in the Asura Mercenary Alliance. Once that happened, the Asura Mercenary Alliances development would skyrocket.
Shadow Fog City, Flower of Seven Sins Residence:
Big Sis Omen, do you think those conglomerates will really set their sights on Abyssal Star City? Summer Wolf asked worriedly when he saw the ongoing discussions on the official forums. If a conglomerate invests in the Asura Mercenary Alliance, we will most likely be numbered...
Before learning about the Greater Gods Domain, players wouldnt know exactly how terrifying the Greater Worlds conglomerates were. However, once one came into contact with some information about the Greater Gods Domain, one would realize that even Higher Gods Domains wouldnt dare to offend the Greater Worlds conglomerates.
An example would be the Flower of Seven Sins Thousand Scars. Ever since Thousand Scars caught the attention of a conglomerate, the various hegemonic powers in the Miniature Ancient World had promptly begun treating the Flower of Seven Sins courteously.
However, if Abyssal Star City managed to attract the attention of a conglomerate, the Flower of Seven Sins would probably cease to exist in the Miniature Ancient World. After all, there was a big difference in significance between an individual and an entire organization receiving a conglomerates attention. It wouldnt be difficult to imagine which of the two would receive greater priority from a conglomerate.
What are you worried about? Theres no way those conglomerates would decide to invest in a power so easily, much less a local power of the Miniature Ancient World, Death Omen said contemptuously. The Asura Mercenary Alliance would first have to become a hegemonic power and gain control of at least one-third of the Miniature Ancient World if it wants to attract a conglomerates attention. No conglomerate would care about the small profits generated by Abyssal Star City.
Moreover, Abyssal Star Citys Teleportation Hall is only connected to Hundred Flow Citys Teleportation Hall. Players will have to go through Hundred Flow City before they can teleport to other NPC Cities. Abyssal Star City would be fortunate if it could attract even one-tenth of the Miniature Ancient Worlds hegemonic powers.
I guess youre right. After thinking it over, Summer Wolf nodded in agreement with Death Omen.
The Greater Worlds conglomerates wouldnt even glance at ordinary hegemonic powers. Only upper-ranked hegemonic powers and above could receive partnership offers from the various conglomerates.
Meanwhile, every upper-ranked hegemonic power was a frightening existence that had successfully established an empire in the Greater Gods Domain and whose rule spanned over one hundred Gods Domains.
So, the likelihood of the Asura Mercenary Alliance attracting a conglomerates attention with the Abyssal Star Primordial City alone was incredibly slim.
Whats the status of Thousand Scars? Death Omen asked. Whether the Flower of Seven Sins can secure a stable position in the Miniature Ancient World all depends on her now!
Weve delivered all the Life Potions and combat techniques we purchased to her already. I believe she can achieve further improvements within the near future, Summer Wolf reported.
Good! So long as she can become a prioritized core talent, its only a matter of time before we can make the Asura Mercenary Alliance disappear! Death Omen nodded, her mood improving significantly.
Zero Wings foundations might have exceeded her expectations. However, so long as the Flower of Seven Sins had a conglomerate to rely on, it wouldnt matter even if Zero Wing had multiple fourth-floor experts defending it.
As soon as Death Omen finished speaking, both Death Omen and Summer Wolf received a message notification simultaneously.
Is Zero Wing crazy? If it sets the entrance fee at 50 Silver, even the various powers will give up on Abyssal Star City, let alone independent players, Summer Wolf exclaimed, a look of disbelief appearing on his face when he finished reading the report on Abyssal Star Citys situation.
If a power decided to set up an operating base in Abyssal Star City, it would assign a minimum of several thousand members to the city. If every one of these players had to pay 50 Silver just to enter the city every day, it would become a significant expense even for the various powers.
Not to mention, the Level 120-plus maps would soon open. Once that happened, Abyssal Star City would become nothing more than a teleportation hub allowing players to reach the Boundary Mountain Range much more easily.
However, if Abyssal Star City charged an entrance fee of 50 Silver per player, nobody would be willing to use the city even as a teleportation hub. After all, players would have to first line up in Hundred Flow City to teleport to Abyssal Star City. Rather than waste all that time just to save a negligible amount of money, itd be much better if they traveled to the Boundary Mountain Range by Mount.
It seems this is all Zero Wing amounts to, Death Omen said, sighing in relief.
If Zero Wing freely let the Miniature Ancient Worlds various powers enter Abyssal Star City, a large number of powers would flood the city. At that time, thered be a real possibility of the city attracting a conglomerates attention. Meanwhile, if the Asura Mercenary Alliance truly managed to gain the support of a conglomerate, Hidden Souls status would skyrocket, and the Flower of Seven Sins would become a joke.
However, after the stunt Zero Wing just pulled, Abyssal Star City could, at most, attract the attention of local players and powers. The city would have great difficulty attracting the attention of the various foreign powers, let alone conglomerates.
At this time, the Flower of Seven Sins wasnt the only one surprised by Abyssal Star Citys new rules. This change also caught the various local and foreign powers and players off guard.
Is the Asura Mercenary Alliance crazy? Rather than secure itself a good future, its choosing to target natives only?
I doubt even natives will buy into an entrance fee of 50 Silver. After all, the Level 120-plus maps will be opening soon. All players above Level 115 will definitely move their base of operations to the Level 120-plus NPC Cities. Who would want to settle in Abyssal Star City?
Fifty Silver? Is Asura attempting daylight robbery? Moreover, teleportation fees can only be paid in Magic Crystals, and each teleportation costs two Magic Crystals? I only earn three Magic Crystals per Advanced Quest I complete for the Adventurers Association, and I can only pick up one Advanced Quest every two or three days!
I know, right? Repairing Epic Weapons and Equipment already costs a lot of Magic Crystals. Magical classes might only need to spend around one Magic Crystal per day for repairs, but plate-armor classes like us need to spend at least two Magic Crystals even on a good day or four Magic Crystals on a bad day. Is Asura telling us to fight naked?
Thats not all. Now, even Asuras members are in a miserable state. Although Bronze members will still receive discounts when entering the city, theyll no longer qualify to train in the Primordial Tower. Now, only Silver members and above can train in the tower. Moreover, the hourly usage fee has increased to 300 Magic Crystals. Only peak experts could possibly afford such a price.
If I have that many Magic Crystals, Id rather spend it on buying a Basic Combat Technique from the Greater Gods Domains. It only costs 200 Magic Crystals to learn a Basic Combat Technique in our Guild.
The Miniature Ancient Worlds official forums were filled with complaints from both local and foreign players. After seeing the changes to Abyssal Star Citys rules, everyone was of the opinion that Abyssal Star Citys development would only go downhill from now on.
Hundred Flow City, Teleportation Hall:
Im afraid Abyssal Star City is beyond salvation now, Maria. Are you sure you still want to establish your trade center there? Favra, holding a silver scepter in her hand, asked as she looked at her niece.
Maria was a little dazed when she learned about Abyssal Star Citys situation. However, after calming down, she earnestly said, I still plan to take a look at it first.
Honestly, Maria was greatly confused by the action Zero Wing took. After all, now that Abyssal Star City had just been upgraded into a Basic City, it was the best opportunity to attract the various powers to settle in the city and drive the citys trade. Yet, Zero Wing had chosen to forsake this opportunity...
