Feng Xuanyang's words dripped with temptation.
Just the prestige of being the number one Guild in the entire eastern region of Star-Moon Kingdom would cause many to fight over it.
These exact same words might have been used to attract Lone Tyrant into cooperating with Underworld back then.
Under the banner of the number one player on the Ranking List, in addition to Underworld's covert support, Dark Star had managed to rocket to fame, becoming a Guild capable of rivalling even the powerful Ouroboros.
_So that's how it is_ _._ Shi Feng suddenly came to a realization.
He finally understood why Dark Star could become so amazing, just like that, with experts appearing in the Guild out of nowhere. Its abrupt rise was all because of Underworld helping it in secret.
However, now that Zero Wing had established a Guild Residence, Underworld couldn't help but reconsider its original plans, hence its interest in investing in Zero Wing.
Shi Feng couldn't help but acknowledge that Underworld was indeed amazing.
They were willing to support an entirely different Guild even at the cost of sacrificing all their previous investments. From an outsider's perspective, such an action was plain foolish. However, Shi Feng knew that Underworld's decision was, in fact, very wise. It was obvious at first glance how great an influence a Guild Residence would have towards a Guild's success. If it were up to him, he, too, would choose to take such an action.
"Master Black Flame, you should know that there are over 20 cities just in Star-Moon Kingdom's eastern region alone. If Master Black Flame agrees to our proposition, in the future, you will become the absolute overlord of these 20-plus cities. Moreover, even though Underworld will be investing in Zero Wing, we will not interfere directly in the management of the Guild itself. Rather, we will provide you with a large sum in funding and manpower," Feng Xuanyang slowly said in a tempting tone. "We at Underworld have already decided that, as long as Master Black Flame agrees, we will immediately inject one billion Credits into Zero Wing, and also provide the Guild with 100 Gold Coins every week. In addition, we will also provide 100 experts, and also one team of Underworld Guards for you, Master Black Flame, to command as you see fit. If Zero Wing develops well, Underworld will invest even more into the Guild in the future.
"Master Black Flame, what do you think?"
Feng Xuanyang had taken Shi Feng's previous silence for hesitation, thinking that Shi Feng was definitely considering his proposition; hence he sweetened the deal. In God's Domain, wasn't the main purpose one established a Guild earning money and gaining status?
For a newly established Guild, one billion Credits was definitely an astronomical sum. Even a major corporation in a city couldn't easily take out one billion Credits. Recently, due to God's Domain's raging popularity, the number of corporations investing in the game had been continuously increasing. The value of Guilds in God's Domain had similarly shot up abruptly. Yet, even so, a third-rate Guild with a member count of 20 to 30 thousand would, at most, be worth two to three hundred million Credits.
Meanwhile, Zero Wing merely had several thousand members in its ranks. Although it had both fame and experts, its value was still not worth one billion Credits. After taking into account the value of a Guild Residence, Zero Wing would at most be worth 500 million Credits. Hence, it would be completely illogical for Shi Feng to refuse the offer of one billion Credits.
