For the next two days, everything was peaceful. As Jiang Fei was so weak that he had to be fed by others, he naturally could not deal with things in the real world. However, this did not stop him from playing the game at night.
In the game world, Jiang Fei's strength was not affected at all. However, after a long time, he became bored with the attacks of the Cultist army.
Two days later, although Jiang Fei's body was still weak, he was busy again. This was because the plot in the game had reached a critical juncture.
After a few days of hard fighting, the Cultist's attack had finally reached its final stage. Groups of Overlords had arrived at the city. The intensity of their attacks was completely different from before.
Boom boom boom … Jiang Fei stood on the guard tower outside the Teleportation Point and looked out. He could hear the continuous sounds of explosions.
"D * mn, I've never seen a battle like this. The Forbidden Spells are practically free!" Little Rain muttered.
At this time, not only were the players from the other guilds struggling, even the main team of Empyreal Dragon was being beaten back. In the face of the Forbidden Spells, even the main team could not withstand it.
Although the players' levels and equipment had been greatly improved, a Forbidden Spell would still cause tens of thousands of players to lose their Health Points. However, before these players could recover their lost Health Points, the second wave of Forbidden Spells had arrived.
"Why is the NPC army still not moving? If this goes on, we won't have enough time to corpse run!" Lady Casanova also complained in Jiang Fei's ear.
Although the players did not lose Experience points when they died in the faction area, they had to return to the city to respawn. They had to collect new equipment before returning to the battlefield. This process took time.
It was during this time that the players were corpse running that the Cultist army was closing in. They were about to reach the Teleportation Point.
"We can't let them get any closer!" Jiang Fei frowned. Although he did not know how strong the defense of the teleportation point was, Jiang Fei did not dare to take the risk of testing the teleportation point's defense against thousands of Overlord bosses and an endless army of cultists.
"Come on, I'll go up and hold them off for a while!" Looking at the number of enemies, Jiang Fei was not confident this time. It was not that he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat them. He was afraid that he would not be able to kill so many enemies even after his transformation ended.
"Boom!" A pink mist enveloped Jiang Fei. Once again, he entered the Covet Demon state.
After transforming, Jiang Fei and his doppelgangers once again charged into the Cultist army. Soon, under the influence of the Realm of Unholy Desire, the Cultist army fell into chaos. The Cultists who were originally rushing towards the teleportation point like a tidal wave instantly started killing each other.
Although the cultists weren't killing each other quickly, they had at least blocked the path of the army, giving the players a chance to catch their breath.
"Unsheathe! Disperse! " Following Jiang Fei's command, the Soulcutter instantly split into two. Then, Jiang Fei began to chase after the Overlord bosses. After all, their damage to players was too terrifying.
Currently, less than one-thousandth of the first-tier players had obtained the Overlord status. Moreover, most of these players were melee classes that specialized in one-on-one duels. It was simply too difficult for magic-based classes to challenge quests that were of a higher tier. Hence, players were at a disadvantage when it came to Forbidden Spells.
Jiang Fei understood that it was impossible for him to kill all the cultists. Therefore, in order to reduce the pressure on the players, he could only try his best to kill the cultist bosses that could cast Forbidden Spells. Only then could he minimize the players' losses.
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, a few hours had passed. Although Jiang Fei was killing the enemies with all his might, he had forgotten that this was a plot mode. The more he killed, the faster the system would respawn. Therefore, when Jiang Fei's transformation ended, the Cultist army was still everywhere. However, he had managed to control the number of Overlord bosses.
When Jiang Fei exited the transformation state, his killing efficiency was much lower than before. The Cultists swarmed forward again, suppressing the players near the teleportation point.
"Dong, dong, dong …" Right then, the sound of war drums could be heard from the sky.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …" At the same time, streams of light appeared in the sky.
"They're finally here!" After seeing this, Jiang Fei let out a sigh of relief. The High Human's Heavenly Court army led by Ou Yezi had finally arrived!
"Boom, boom, boom …" More than ten Celestial bosses appeared first. Under the leadership of Zhao Sheng, one of the Four Sages of the Heavens, these bosses unleashed Forbidden Spells on the Cultist army.
A Celestial Tier Boss's Forbidden Spell was much scarier than an Overlord Boss's Forbidden Spell. In the blink of an eye, millions of Evil Cultists were annihilated. Following that, the Celestial Army, which numbered in the tens of thousands, appeared on the scene. This army was incredibly powerful. Even the soldiers were Overlords. They rampaged through the Evil Cultists and killed them all.
"Phew … That's it?" Seven Star Warrior could not help but let out a sigh of relief when he saw the shocking changes on the battlefield.
"Yeah, it seems like we're done here!" Lady Casanova stabbed her mace beside her and relaxed.
Jiang Fei did not know that there was actually a trigger condition for this plot. As long as the Cultist army approached the teleportation point, the Heavenly Court's reinforcements would arrive. If Jiang Fei did not take action, the plot would have already unfolded and the players would have killed their way into the Celestial Realm!
However, Jiang Fei did not know about this immoral setting. He thought that if he did not risk his life, the teleportation point would be destroyed. If that happened, all his efforts in the Celestial Realm would go to waste.
After the players watched the live movie for half an hour, the Cultist army was annihilated by the High Human army led by Ou Yezi. After that, Ou Yezi gave an impassioned speech and emphasized on Jiang Fei's contributions. With a dazzling golden light, the teleportation point was officially activated!
By the time the golden light dissipated, the teleportation array had undergone an earth-shattering transformation. The various defensive structures had disappeared, replaced by various supply facilities, including a smithy, a potion shop, and other necessities for players. Clearly, this place had become the backline for the counterattack against the Celestial Realm.
"Ding! The new map, Ancient Celestial Realm, has been unlocked! Players above Level 85, please come to the teleportation platform to receive the Guidance Quest! "
A system announcement rang in the ears of all players, signifying the official opening of the Ancient Celestial Realm. At the same time, it also marked the official start of the counterattack phase of the War of the Heavens.
