The construction of the Adventurerâs Association, which had three floors and took up the area of a large football field, stunned players in the central district.
âThe Adventurerâs Association?â
âWhy would the Adventurerâs Association be here? Iâm not seeing things, right?â
Everyone shuddered when they saw the Adventurerâs Association. None of them were able to believe what their eyes were seeing was true.
The Adventurerâs Association was becoming more important to Godâs Domainâs players. The Associationâs daily quests were many playersâ main source of income. This was the main reason that players couldnât venture too far from NPC towns and cities.
Now that an Adventurerâs Association occupied Stone Forest Town, many of these players could break free from this restriction. They could now level up and earn money far more conveniently.
Thinking up to this point, many players curiously entered Stone Forest Townâs Adventurerâs Association.
âCrap! Itâs real!â
As the crowd entered the first-floor hall, they discovered that the hallâs furnishings were exactly the same as the Adventurerâs Association in NPC towns and cities. Many NPCs were busy, publishing new quests on the quest board. The only difference was the number of quests available. There were far more quests available here than in other towns and citiesâ Adventurerâs Associations.
âQuick, look! There are daily town quests and several high-ranking quests!â a player that had immediately checked the quest area exclaimed.
These words attracted a lot of attention, and many players headed towards the quest boards for a closer look.
âThis is awesome! The daily town questsâ rewards are even better than daily quests in NPC towns and cities! Moreover, the quest locations are all near Stone Forest Town! We can easily complete these quests in two hours, even faster if we had Mounts!â
Everyoneâs eyes shone as they read the daily town quests.
Normally, the daily quests in NPC towns and cities required more than three hours to complete. Of course, the main reason for this was the long distance between quest objectives. Completing the quest itself only took half an hour or so. Most players would pick up local quests while completing their dailies to increase their leveling efficiency. Only after they completed the local quests would they return to hand in their daily quests.
News about Stone Forest Townâs Adventurerâs Association spread through the town quickly. As a result, many players who had intended to return to their respective NPC cities to turn in their daily quests surged towards Stone Forest Townâs Adventurerâs Association instead.
Star-Moon Kingdomâs official forums were in an uproar.
âPlayers with houses in Stone Forest Town are going to have an even easier time! With the Adventurerâs Association located beside the residential district, they can pick up and turn in quests easily!â
âHopefully, when the private houses go up for sale tomorrow, the price wonât be too high. Our team has only managed to gather 1,000 Gold after much difficultyâŚâ
âThat canât be certain. The private houses in Stone Forest Town were already quite valuable thanks to the townâs high Mana density. Even while resting in a private house, players can accumulate the Double EXP buff faster than in 1-star Guild Residence private rooms. Now, not only can Stone Forest Townâs private houses be upgraded, but there is also the Adventurerâs Association nearby. Donât forget about Stone Forest Townâs current development speed either. With the Adventurerâs Association, it wonât be long before Stone Forest Town becomes an Advanced Town. At that point, the townâs private houses may cost as much as those in major NPC cities.â
âIndeed. If we fail to get a house now, by the time Stone Forest Town becomes an Advanced Town, purchasing one will be even harderâŚâ
âŚ
Due to the Adventurerâs Association, many adventurer teams that originally held a wait-and-see stance promptly sold off all their unnecessary rare materials, weapons, and equipment to collect money. Some teams even purchased Coins in bulk with Credits, deeply afraid that they wouldnât have enough money to buy Stone Forest Townâs private houses when they became available.
At the same time, many of the hesitant adventurer teams in the neighboring kingdoms began to take action, swarming towards Stone Forest Town.
After all, Stone Forest Town had massive advantages over other player towns. It could definitely be considered the number one town in Star-Moon Kingdom and the several neighboring countries.
If they could enjoy the benefits Stone Forest Town had to offer, migrating across counties would be worthwhile.
Meanwhile, back in Zero Wingâs Residence in Stone Forest Town, Shi Feng charged Gilbert to manage the townâs NPC guards after summoning him. He then used a Return Scroll and returned to White River Cityâs Candlelight Trading Firm.
âŚ
Every Intermediate and above alchemist in the Candlelight Trading Firm had gathered in the top-floorâs Special Alchemy Room.
In any of Star-Moon Kingdomâs large Guilds, even the Guildâs upper echelons would treat these alchemists like VIPs. Meanwhile, 150 such players had gathered. Among them, more than half of the Advanced Alchemists in the kingdom were present.
These alchemists had already waited for over twenty minutes, but they didnât show the slightest sign of anger or resentment. In fact, they brimmed with excitement and joy.
âHahaha! This is wonderful! The Guild had always called upon the forgers and engineers. Now, itâs finally the alchemistsâ turn!â
âI wonder why Big Sis Melancholic has called us here? Does the trading firm plan to select alchemists for Titan City?â
âThatâs possible. The last group that entered Titan City should return soon. This gathering might be to select the candidates for the next batch. Based on what Iâve heard from those that entered the Holy City of Titan, it is a holy land for experience. You can gain tons of knowledge in Titan City. There are even tutorial videos and instructions from Masters and Grandmasters. One round trip can almost guarantee a promotion from Intermediate rank to Advanced rank. The insight that Advanced Lifestyle players gain in the Holy City can also help one reach Master rank.â
âItâs that amazing?â
âOf course. Just look at the last Candlelight Auction. The Super Guilds and super-first-rate Guilds went crazy just to get a single slot. I wonder how many slots have been allocated for alchemists?â
As the various alchemists conversed, the roomâs door abruptly opened. A man and a woman then walked into the room. Immediately, everyone in the Alchemy Room snapped to attention, anxiety and reverence filling their gaze as they looked at the man who had just entered.
âWhatâs going on?â
âGuild Leader Black Flame is here in person?â
âIs Candlelight searching for alchemists to cultivate?â
Everyone was astonished to see the cloaked man. Despite this manâs lack of aura, these players couldnât help but shudder in his presence.
When the alchemists realized that Blake Flame had made a personal trip to meet them, anticipation gripped their hearts.
Not only was the man before them Star-Moon Kingdomâs number one expert, but he was also the kingdomâs number one forger. Although it had been a long time since he had displayed his forging skills, his abilities were obvious based on the Level 50 Fine-Gold Set Equipment that had sold during the previous auction. In the Candlelight Trading Firm, even Cream Cocoa and a handful of other Advanced Forgers who were approaching their Master rank promotion could only forge Level 50 Secret-Silver Set Equipment. The other Advanced Forgers couldnât even produce Level 50 Mysterious-Iron Set Equipment.
Moreover, the man before them was the Guild Leader of the number one Guild in Star-Moon Kingdom. With even a sliver of his resources, these Advanced Lifestyle players would be set for life. If the trading firm nurtured them, theyâd have an even higher chance of becoming Master Alchemists in the future. Not to mention, the Candlelight Trading Firm had already set a standard.

âIâve asked Melancholic to gather you here today for two reasons. The first is that I will be changing the benefits alchemists are offered. I also want to help several talented alchemists become Master Alchemists!â
Although Shi Feng hadnât been very loud, every one of his words caused these playersâ hearts to pound.
When these alchemists had heard that Shi Feng wanted to help them become Master Alchemists, they felt as if they had heard the word of god.
If any of Star-Moon Kingdomâs large Guilds, and even those in the several neighboring kingdoms, had said this, they would assume it was a joke. But it was a different story if these words came from Shi Fengâs mouth.
