Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer - Chapter 748

Chapter 748: Guild’s Penalty Chapter 748: Guild’s Penalty Time passed by, and many more NPC cities were conquered by the Colossus.

The conquered cities were quickly assimilated as part of the Colossus Territory.  Players who failed to defend their respective cities were officially penalized and given heavy debuff.  However, that wasn’t even the end of their penalty.  All their developed relationships with NPCs had turned negative, with many of them receiving a negative value rapport status.

Since their relationship was now negative, it would remain there despite migrating to another city.  It would take them months to even turn the value to neutral.

Of course, that was due to the increased difficulty as well as the reduced amount of quests available for them to take.

When such an immense downfall hit, it wouldn’t be a surprise that many of them might turn to Bounty Tag Players.  That was the main effect of the major event.

The Divine World wished to send a message that one’s position and status could easily change in a matter of seconds.

The players who enjoyed great benefits from well-developed cities must now suffer and experience the life of a beggar.  Those who couldn’t endure further would have no choice but to choose the dark side path to ensure their progress won’t be delayed.

This ripple effect would soon reveal itself and player killing would intensify throughout the neutral map.

Precisely so at the time when players’ levels were starting to outstretch the safe haven of NPC city.  ‘Traveling to the unprotected map to improve is going to be a challenge.

But that’s when a player-constructed town comes into play.’ Xu Feng couldn’t wait for that moment to happen.

Others might dread the incoming future, but he was long prepared for it.

Amidst his greedy thoughts, Gentle Wind gazed at them and asked with a disbelief expression.

“So the Vanguard Guild only sent the two of you in response to our commission?”  “Why do you sound so displeased?” Zhao Kai raised an eyebrow.

“Aren’t the two of us enough to help?”  Indeed, Xu Feng and Zhao Kai were currently at Dawnshire City.  After Xu Feng received a message from Gentle Wind requesting reinforcements to help defend the city, the two made their way here as soon as possible.

However, their speed of arrival clearly didn’t click well with Gentle Wind, who found them to be joking with her.

“Shadow Blade, are you seriously saying the two of you will be enough?” Autumn Breeze chimed in and questioned.

Her real identity was the eldest sister of Zhao Kai, so her words naturally held more weight as opposed to Gentle Wind.  Sure enough, Zhao Kai cleared his throat and explained.

“Ahem, it’s not that our guild doesn’t want to send more, but we really don’t have more manpower.” Ignoring him, Autumn Breeze turned her attention to Xu Feng.  “Is he speaking the truth, mister honorary elder?” She asked, her voice somewhat sarcastically based on her address.  After all, Xu Feng came here with the alias Cool Wind.

Both Lin Feng and Eclipse Nova were inappropriate to show up in this meeting, so only Cool Wind was eligible.

And since these two knew Cool Wind was Xu Feng in the real world, it goes without saying that they didn’t hold much respect in their tone.

“Of course, our Guild Commander is speaking the truth.” Xu Feng shrugged.  “If you are this displeased, then we can simply take our exit.

It’s not like this is our city.” He continued, reminding them that they were the ones begging, and not them.

So what if you’re Zhao Kai’s eldest sister?  As if that kind of relationship mattered much to him.

Before coming here, Xu Feng had already warned Zhao Kai solemnly to not let his relationship affect his decision and mind.

Therefore, the person to lead the conversation would be him, so Zhao Xin could forget about trying to capitalize on anything.  Not to mention, in this meeting, it wasn’t just Gentle Wind and Autumn Breeze present.  There were also Herald Fist from the Tyrant Fist Guild, as well as representatives from Lion Roar and Silver Legion.  This was the reason why Gentle Wind and Autumn Breeze could only speak subtly.

If they accidentally exposed Zhao Kai and Xu Feng’s identity, then things wouldn’t be looking good for either side.  “Hold up a minute.” Herald Fist suddenly raised his hand and said, “Gentle Wind does not represent all of us.

If she and her guild do not wish to seek your help, then our Tyrant Fist Guild would gladly pay for your assistance.”  ‘This sly bastard.’ Instantly, Gentle Wind cursed silently.

Without a doubt, she understood Herald Fist’s objective right away.  Not only did he want to alienate them from the Vanguard Guild, but he also wanted to send a message that the Tyrant Fist Guild also controlled Dawnshire City.

“Guild Leader Herald Fist’s words are too much.

We, from the Lion Roar, are also willing to foot the bill.” The representative from Lion Roar, Dango Tiger quickly chimed in.

“Haha, our Silver Legion is also willing to pay.” Night Coin, who was the Guild Captain of the Silver Legion exclaimed.  “…” Speechless, Gentle Wind nearly wanted to strangle these three sly bastards.  ‘Even at this time, they are still trying to suppress us and cozy up with the Vanguard Guild.’ She suppressed her anger and kept quiet.  Given the dire situation, she had no choice but to call a temporary truce with these three guilds.

After all, there was no point in having internal conflict anymore if the city were to fall.

There were already examples of what happened in the other 3 fallen cities due to the guilds not coming to a consensus and acting on their own.  Now they reaped exactly what they sowed.  Their guild’s foundation crumbled in an instant.

Most of the regular members also left the guild in response to avoid the heavy penalty that the guild itself had.  The guild’s penalty itself from the system only affected Elite Members and up ranks.  Those who ranked below could simply leave the guild and the penalty would disappear by itself.
