The Almighty Ring

“What do we do? Another territory’s sprouting out from the ground!” As soon as Jiang Fei’s territory-building announcement appeared, the heads of the three major guilds had gathered.

“What can we do? Pfft!” Southern Azuresword rolled his eyes. Now, The Aristocrats’ protection period was almost over, but they were already done building their city. That tycoon Han Tianyu was simply unreasonable. He had more than ten big offices, each housing thousands of people working for him. They never once ran out of materials. Now, the guild territory of The Aristocrats not only had towering walls, but also solid sentry towers. At the players’ current level, no one would be able to destroy them!

Although Jiang Fei had just started building his territory, everyone knew that The Aristocrats would not just look on. They were almost done building their territories, so they would definitely hand over their extra materials to Empyreal Dragon. Undoubtedly, one month later, Empyreal Dragon would become the next The Aristocrats!

Originally, The Aristocrats alone was already enough to suppress the three major guilds. Now, Jiang Fei’s Empyreal Dragon was also building its own territory. This had forced the three major guilds into a desperate situation. Now, they could only fight until they die, or sit and await death!

“How are the preparations on your side?” Lady Casanova asked.

“Everything’s ready!” Daemon’s Grimace said.

“Contact the others, then. Get ready to start! We can’t afford to wait any longer!” Lady Casanova hissed, frustrated at the turn of events.

“Alright! We’ll get down to it immediately!” Daemon’s Grimace nodded.

…

As the three major guilds urgently made their preparations, Jiang Fei was being bombarded with messages!

“Damn, Ah Fei, you’re awesome. You sneakily started building your territory!” Han Tianyu was the first to send a congratulatory message.

He only played this game because he had to do everything possible to get closer to Jiang Fei, especially after he had confirmed that Jiang Fei was a Level 4 Metahuman. Moreover, when he surmised that Jiang Fei had a master who was probably a Level 5 Metahuman, Han Tianyu started to place more importance on his friendship with Jiang Fei!

“Hoho, I just got lucky! It’s all about luck!” Jiang Fei laughed it off.

“Ah Fei! Why did you start building the territory without discussing it with us beforehand?” Rosette Rose came with her accusations, as expected.

After the announcement, players from Empyreal Dragon could see where the guild’s territory was. Rosette Rose immediately noticed that Jiang Fei had chosen a remote and desolate location!

“Hehe, it will all make sense when the time comes!” Jiang Fei laughed mysteriously. He had made up his mind not to tell anyone about the Ant Queen.

“Really? Is that land that good?” Rosette Rose asked dubiously. Although Jiang Fei was a little naughty and had wasted a lot of announcements, he most definitely had his ways. After that cryptic message, Rosette Rose was almost instantly convinced!

“Yeah! Don’t worry!” Jiang Fei laughed.

In fact, Jiang Fei’s plan was simple. He was going to place the main hall of the guild castle at the entrance of the Secret Dungeon, then set up the main hall of the castle there, only allowing guild officials entry. That way, nobody could ever touch his Ant Queen, lest they first destroyed his guild base.

Jiang Fei had gone through such great lengths to safe keep this single Ant.

After spending 50,000 gold coins to hire the system’s civil servants, the construction of Jiang Fei’s guild territory began. After they were hired, the civil servants would bring some basic materials over. However, after the second day, Jiang Fei would have to pay for the materials!

Since the construction required so many materials, Jiang Fei would not be able to finish building his castle in five months, let alone a month, even if he bought the materials from the market! After thinking about it, he decided that it would be best if he obtained these materials from Han Tianyu. However, Jiang Fei did not want to owe Han Tianyu anything. So, he could only stick to his old ways — exchanging equipment for materials!

Although Jiang Fei had crafted a lot of Rainbow Blades to raise money for the deposit, this was not the only Recipe he had in his hands. He still had an Excellent quality Bloodborne Helmet Recipe!

This Helmet was not as valuable as the Rainbow Blade, Jiang Fei still needed to upgrade his equipment. So, he had to craft some Helmets anyway. While he was at it, he could just exchange the extra Helmets for the materials needed to construct his castle!

Jiang Fei shared his idea with Han Tianyu. Han Tianyu naturally agreed. Han Tianyu did not even mind giving Jiang Fei the materials for free. However, Jiang Fei would simply not accept it. Happy Drunk, however, was fully in support of Jiang Fei’s idea!

Before this, he had still been wondering why Jiang Fei suddenly wanted to forge equipment. However, after Jiang Fei’s announcements, Happy Drunk soon put two and two together. Now, Jiang Fei needed materials to build his city, and he was willing to exchange equipment for the materials. Naturally, Happy Drunk was very happy. The construction of Aristocrat’s territory was almost complete anyway. Although the rest of the materials could be kept and used for maintenance, there was no point in hoarding them. It was also a good thing if these materials could be used in exchange for equipment from Jiang Fei!

After they reached an agreement, Jiang Fei rolled up his sleeves and got ready. He started forging the Helmets.

As he made the deal with Happy Drunk, Jiang Fei no longer had to worry about the materials needed to forge the Helmets anymore. Helmets took far less time to forge. About eighty pieces could be made in an hour. Jiang Fei had grasped some other techniques when he crafted the Rainbow Blades previously. After he spent some time adapting to the new Recipe, Jiang Fei put his Divine Blacksmith privilege to use!

“Ding! You have crafted Enhanced Bloodborne Helmet! Divine Blacksmith Experience +80!”

“Ding! You have crafted Enhanced Bloodborne Helmet! Divine Blacksmith Experience +80!”

“Ding! You have crafted Bloodborne Helmet! Divine Blacksmith Experience +50!”

…

Jiang Fei was once again immersed in forging. The entire process went by smoothly, and he finished forging all the Helmets in one go. The more he forged, the better he felt with each breath of cold air.

When Jiang Fei had used 500 sets of materials, his chances of crafting an Ascended Equipment were almost over 70%!

This time, Jiang Fei had spent more than six hours crafting. After the long session, he was already quite experienced in using Rapid Ice Burst. Not only did he successfully craft 280 pieces of equipment, of which 150 of them were Purples, he had even managed to capture five streams of light and successfully forge a single Legendary Supreme Bloodborne Helmet!

Of course, Jiang Fei kept this Legendary quality Helmet for his own use. He left 20 pieces of Purple Helmets for his own guild members. The remaining Blue and Purple Helmets were given to The Aristocrats, in exchange for a large number of construction materials needed to build his territory. Therefore, Jiang Fei did not have to worry about his Territory, whatsoever.
