Chapter 1064 1064. Cipher Flight’s Guild Headquarters

After the duel, Phithion rushed out of the tavern grumpily. Warsong Rising would pull their force out of the mithril mine. Of course, there was a possibility that Warsong Rising didn't honor the bet, but Four Winds didn't worry. He had confidence that his guild could defend the mine if Warsong Rising decided to continue being stubborn. At least with this duel, he had tried a more peaceful approach.

He then asked Jack and the others to wait for him while he went and had a talk with the tavern's management.

While waiting, Jack chatted with Jim. Jim considered Jack a fellow rookie, so he was very friendly to Jack. He even considered himself a senior since he entered the guild a few weeks earlier. He gave Jack some pointers about the guild and even about martial arts, especially regarding spin kicks.

Since Jack did admire Jim's kick, he listened intently.

"Come on. Let us return to our headquarters!" Four Winds said to Water Lily and the rest. Jack was included, of course. His orc persona was now registered as a member of Cipher Flight.

Four Winds gave Jack a guild return scroll. Jack noticed the name on the scroll was Wind Island.

"Island?" Jack asked when the others disappeared one by one. He also activated his and disappeared.

He appeared inside a guild teleportation chamber. The design of the chamber was mostly identical to other guild headquarters. Only after he came out of the chamber and looked out from the balcony that he could see the difference of this headquarters.

A boundless sea was seen all the way to the horizon. They were truly on an island. Water Lily explained that their headquarters were located at the edge of Verremor Nation which bordered the sea.

Jack commented on how strategic the place was. It would be very difficult if enemies wanted to a.s.sault this place.

Jack continued looking around the place. Water Lily and Jim excused themselves while Four Winds stayed and accompanied Jack.

Jack saw a dock and a s.h.i.+pyard. A few small s.h.i.+ps were docked there. In terms of maritime power, Cipher Flight was ahead of Everlasting Heavenly Legends.

Jack opened the guild page and studied the information about the guild.

"What do you think of our guild? Does it hold a candle to yours?" Four Winds asked.

"Yours is more advanced in some areas," Jack said. "But I'm sorry to say. Generally, ours is still better."

Four Winds laughed. He was not offended. Considering his guild lost during the war when they clashed with Everlasting Heavenly Legends, it was to be expected.

"Have your guild reached level 5 yet?" Four Winds asked.

"Not yet, but almost," Jack said. He checked the progression bar of Cipher Flight's level. The bar was two-thirds filled. In terms of level advancement, Cipher Flight was behind Everlasting Heavenly Legends but not by too far a margin.

"Hey, you also have two guild guardians!" Jack uttered after reading the information. "Did you just catch a second one after the war?"

"Also? This means your guild has two as well?" Four Winds asked. During the war, both guilds only showed possession of one guild guardian.

"We caught ours not long after the war ended, but it is currently still an infant. It will take some time before we can use it in battle," Jack explained.

"Well, we already have two since before the war."

"Then why didn't you summon it during the war?"

"Because that second guild guardian is a pure aquatic creature," It was Peniel who answered. The name of Cipher Flight's second guild guardian was Abaia. It was a level 60 rare elite aquatic monster.

Jack had no idea what this creature looked like. Peniel explained to him that it looked like a giant eel. It was very powerful underwater and could cast magical spells.

Jack asked Peniel telepathically which one was better, the Abaia or the dragon turtle. Peniel answered that the Abaia was a faster swimmer, but the dragon turtle was generally stronger. Additionally, the dragon turtle their guild captured had a very high chance of becoming a mythical grade, so this rare elite Abaia couldn't be compared to the dragon turtle they possessed.

"Come! Blizzard is waiting," Four Winds said.

As Four Winds mentioned before in the tavern, Jack was to fight Violent Blizzard to determine if he, without using his other two cla.s.ses' skills, was worthy of accompanying Four Winds to the Election Tourney.

Their combat would be carried out inside the arena. The arena was one of the guild structures. Its purpose was simply for members to test their prowess against each other without fear of the death penalty. Any player who died within the arena would be revived near its entrance without losing any level or possession.

Heavenly Citadel also had one. Many players used the arena to blow off some steam or sharpened their technique in a real fight.

"Go in. Blizzard is already inside," Four Winds said after they arrived in front of the arena.

Screens were provided along the outside wall, showing the fight that was happening inside. Right now on the screen was Violent Blizzard standing in the middle of the arena. She was holding her silver greatsword.

"She doesn't look cheery," Jack remarked.

"She is never cheery," four Winds said. "But yes. At this moment, she was even less cheery than her usual not-cheery mood."

"Well, that is encouraging," Jack said.

"Remember. If you lose, our deal is off," Four Winds warned.

"Don't worry, I won't," Jack said.

"You are pretty confident, considering you cannot summon Therras," Peniel reminded him as he walked toward the arena's entrance. "Almost all Beastmaster's skills required pets to use."

"Don't worry," Jack a.s.sured her. "I will just beat her with brute force."

Although Jack could be said to be unable to use most of his skills in this fight, his stats and equipment far surpa.s.sed his opponent. He wore unique grade regal outfits which were disguised. His beastmaster's weapon was level 70 super rare grade claws, which he had prepared before departing for Verremor.

He entered the arena and saw Violent Blizzard, who also noticed his entry.

"Hi! It's good seeing you again," Jack greeted.

Violent Blizzard greeted back by rus.h.i.+ng at him with a brandished greatsword.
