Chapter 317 The Massacre of the Town
"President, we are marked as red as blood. Each of us has at least ten kills, and Tonny and I have over a hundred. It will take quite some time to clear our red names. By then, other guild members might all be at level 20," FlameDancer said with a bitter smile.
To clear the red name's sin value, the most common way is to wait for the red name's time to pass. However, if the sin value is too high, one must punish evil and promote good.
But specifically going to kill evil NPCs like criminals and bandits won't give any rewards, not even experience points, though it can significantly reduce the sin value.
However, such NPCs are rare and scattered. It's quite fast for an individual to do it, but very slow for a group.
"Indeed, let's not clear the red names. Instead, let's increase our reputation in Silvervale City. As long as we become nobles, entering the city with a red name won't have much impact, and taking on a job change task shouldn't be a problem," Eric thought for a moment and said. Clearing so much sin value would indeed take two or three days.
Everyone was surprised to hear Eric suggest increasing their reputation in Silvervale City to the noble level, as if becoming a noble in Silvervale City was as easy as buying fruit on the street.
Increasing reputation in Silvervale City is extremely difficult. Compared to the time it takes to become a noble, it would be easier to kill bandit NPCs.
"President, is there a way to quickly increase our reputation in Silvervale City?" Tonny knew Eric wouldn't make baseless claims and immediately looked excited.
Becoming a noble in Silvervale City!
Currently, noble players in Silvervale City are very few. Noble players can not only buy commercial stalls in Silvervale City but also take on unique high-level tasks in Silvervale City. The rewards for those tasks are mouth-watering. Although the experience points are low, the rewards are in silver coins instead of copper coins.
Most importantly, nobles in Silvervale City get a 10% discount on purchases and a 30% discount on equipment repairs!
Repairing equipment is a pain for them every time!
Their repair costs are enough for ordinary players to repair six or seven times.
If they become nobles in Silvervale City, they wouldn't be broke after repairing equipment and might even enjoy the noble district in Silvervale City.
Eric rolled his eyes at Tonny, "Do you really think becoming a noble in Silvervale City is like picking fruit on the roadside?"
Everyone laughed at Tonny, who almost choked.
"Increasing reputation in Silvervale City isn't that simple, but there is a way to speed it up," Eric said with a faint smile.
"President, is there really a way?" Cola asked excitedly. Repairing equipment was his nightmare.
Among cloth armor, leather armor, and plate armor, cloth armor is the cheapest to repair, while plate armor is the most expensive, usually more than twice the cost of cloth armor.
"There is only one way, massacre a town," Eric nodded with a mysterious smile.
Everyone was stunned. What was this about?
They had just escaped the pursuit of the Darkstar Guild, and now they were going to massacre a town. They couldn't keep up with this pace.
"Massacre a town?" Cola was confused.
Although he didn't understand why they needed to massacre a town, it wasn't easy. Every small town has elite NPCs above level 50 guarding it, along with several second-tier NPCs. Their group couldn't even fill the teeth of a level 50 elite.
"Yes, massacre a town, but not an ordinary small town. It's a small town occupied by an evil NPC force in Silvervale City called Stream Town. If we can massacre this town, we will gain a lot of reputation in Silvervale City. If we're lucky, there might be unexpected rewards," Eric explained. "But massacring a town isn't easy. I need to prepare."
"You guys stay here and fish. I'll go prepare and notify you when I'm ready."
After saying that, Eric used a return scroll.
Massacring towns is common in the mid-game of Divine Realms: Legends.
There are many small towns in Divine Realms: Legends, most of which are not managed by any kingdom or empire. These towns are occupied by other forces. Anyone wanting to establish their own empire in Divine Realms: Legends must occupy a small town. However, to occupy a small town, one must first drive out the occupying force, turning the town into one's town. Gradually developing the town can eventually surpass the level of Eldoria Capital, but the conditions required are extremely harsh, making it very difficult to achieve.
However, occupying a small town is easier said than done.
Even the elite forces of Silvervale City's top guild, Devouring Serpents, couldn't occupy a small town, not even the most remote and resource-poor one.
Moreover, with the Abyssal Rift Valley unsealed and monster invasions, the overall strength of small towns has increased, making it even more impossible for players to occupy a town.
However, the town Eric chose was special. It was a hidden quest in Silvervale City. After accepting the quest, the overall strength of Stream Town would be greatly reduced, making the massacre much easier. But the prerequisite for accepting this quest was to be a viscount of Silvervale City, which Eric happened to be.
Upon returning to Silvervale City, Eric immediately became the center of attention. Everyone looked at Eric and discussed him, making him feel like a superstar, known by everyone.
This wasn't just because Eric's name was blood-red, making people shudder.
The main reason was the name Black Flame.
The battle in Silverleaf Forest was spectacular. His flying strike made many people want to imitate it. Unfortunately, ordinary players could only jump up to 10 feet high, far less than Eric's nearly 25 feet. Moreover, striking six times in mid-air, with each strike hitting a vital point, was impossible for them.
By imitating Eric, everyone admired him even more. They all knew that basic attributes determined physical differences. Comparing themselves to Eric made them realize the vast gap between them.
"Black Flame, when will the Guild of Aether Wing start recruiting en masse? I've been waiting to join Aether Wing," a level 17 male Swordsman asked loudly.
"Yeah, yeah, I really want to join the Guild of Aether Wing. Black Flame, can you secretly tell me when the recruitment will start? I promise I won't tell anyone," a female Summoner asked softly.
Everyone's enthusiasm for joining Aether Wing was growing. If the Guild of Aether Wing hadn't announced a temporary halt to recruitment for rest and management improvement, the recruitment area would have been overwhelmed.
Hearing everyone's constant calls, Eric felt a bit scared by their enthusiasm and had to reassure them, "Don't worry, everyone. Our Guild of Aether Wing will definitely recruit more members, and the next recruitment will be large-scale. The specific time is three days from now at Aether Wing's base. I hope everyone will actively sign up then."
After saying that, Eric quickly left. If he stayed longer, he might not be able to leave.
"Three days later, great! I'll work hard to improve my skills and strength. In three days, I must pass the test and become a member of the Guild of Aether Wing."
With a specific time, everyone's enthusiasm grew even more. They were determined to join Aether Wing.
Because the Guild of Aether Wing was their dream sanctuary for experts.
Assassin FlameDancer, Guardian Knight Cola, Elementalist Rosewater, Berserker Ezio, Sorcerer Tonny, Priest Violet Mistflow, Swordsman Black Flame, and Swordsman Kai Blackthorn all had glorious achievements in Divine Realms: Legends. They were far superior to experts from other guilds.
