That was right. Having a Guild Headquarters captured did not merely mean losing the server's tax revenue; it also meant losing a large amount of materials and reserve funds stored there. Even if they reclaimed it, they would need to spend a great deal of money rebuilding it. On top of that, it would severely affect the headquarters' development progress. In other words, losing a Guild Headquarters meant enormous losses. This also, to some extent, prevented the Major Servers from rapidly increasing their strength and obtaining more Group Blessing Scrolls by "trading" Guild Headquarters.
However, Ittō Tarō believed that they could still do so if left with no other choice. Of course, they could also do it if it meant completely suppressing the China Server Alliance. In his eyes, now was the best opportunity.
"Even so, losing multiple Guild Headquarters would be too damaging for both sides, and the repercussions would be long-lasting. That is why so many Guild Headquarters in our alliance are still Level 4, while every Guild Headquarters in the China Server has already been upgraded to Level 5—excluding those Level 3 Guild Headquarters, of course," Fujisan Shita said gravely. "Especially now that the China Server Alliance has stockpiled far too many Group Blessing Scrolls. We would need to lose far too many Guild Headquarters just for a chance to completely suppress them, and it would only be a chance. You all know how strong the China Server Alliance is, and they have all sorts of ways to wear us down. We already suffered considerable losses before."

Everyone fell silent at those words. They all knew that doing so would inflict massive and lasting losses on
