At this moment, the Valsalrian Army was already in a mess. They were lucky enough to be able to maintain the stability of their territory and not collapse. As for sending troops to resist the invasion of the Empire, they were simply powerless.
However, the Development Team could not just watch the Valsalrian Army collapse completely. If that happened, the faction antagonism system they had built would be completely destroyed, and the game would no longer be able to continue.
Now that the game was popular and had just gained popularity, a large number of "players" were constantly flowing in. Of course, the Development Team was reluctant to end the game.
Therefore, various subsidies and preferential policies were continuously introduced to the "players" of the Resistance Army to encourage those new "players" to choose to join the Resistance Army camp after leaving the safe zone.
On the other hand, although the Empire's military 'players' didn't get a lot of subsidies, they were all veteran 'players' who had been with Eymond for so long. Now that the Empire had such a clear advantage, they naturally didn't have too many objections.
Just as the Development Team and all the "players" were ready to welcome the unusually epic battle of the century, Aurelia of the Domini Star System was still holding back.
"Commander! When are we going to attack? "After enduring for three days, Emon finally could not help but send a message to Aurelia.
"Don't worry, Honorable General Edmund. Our main force hasn't arrived yet. If you can't hold it in any longer, you can send a small unit to test the waters first." Aurelia still maintained that unhurried attitude.
In fact, the purpose of Aurelia's troops was to attract the attention of the Development Team so that they would not have the time to pay attention to Jiang Fei who had suddenly disappeared. Now that the goal had been achieved, she certainly did not need to waste the lives of her subordinates to attack the Valsalrian Army, which was full of orbital defense facilities.
"Well, my troops will test the waters first. How long will it take for your main forces to arrive?" Emon said after thinking for a while. He considered things from the perspective of a "player," so he did not realize that Aurelia did not really want to attack. He felt that this was just a signal that the expansion pack was about to begin.
Now, the Empire Army was holding back mainly because they were waiting for the expansion pack. Obviously, after the arrival of the new patch, the battle of the century would begin.
As for the Valsalrian Legion and the Resistance Army, they were even more glad that Aurelia had suspended her attack, because they also needed time to prepare. Whether it was the addition of orbital defense facilities or the assembly of new "players," they all needed time.
Just like that, apart from Eamon who could no longer sit still, the other parties tacitly maintained their stalemate.
After a few probes, Amon's "player" fleet also paused their offensive. In order to prevent the Valsalrian army from being wiped out in an instant, the development team had activated emergency measures and added a large number of orbital defense facilities to the Valsalrian army's territory. Although these things could not be moved, their attack power was very terrifying. As soon as Amon's fleet arrived, they were beaten to a pulp.
Just as the attention of all the 'players' and the Development Team was attracted to the Domini Star System, Jiang Fei took the opportunity to start meditating in the Inheritance Space. In the distant Five Worlds, a small figure was sitting next to a small stream, holding a fresh flower in his hand, plucking at the petals.
"Handsome brother, you must do your best!" Natasha muttered.
"I don't know what brother means. Why is he suddenly helping me? Hasn't he always opposed it …" Natasha said to herself as she plucked at the petals.
"Jiang Fei … Why do I have to help you? Why do I feel so familiar with you?" Natasha frowned. She no longer had the innocent look on her face. "Jiang Fei … Why do I have to help you?
"Perhaps after you come to my world, you will give me an answer …" The last petal fell into the stream and drifted away with the stream. The girl who was originally sitting by the stream disappeared with a flash of light.
…
Time flowed like water. In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. Natasha's fleet was still stationed in the Domini Star System, bringing huge pressure to the Valsalrian Legion. But at this moment, whether it was the Development Team or the "players" of the Resistance Army, they were no longer panicking. After these two months of preparation, the combat power of the "players" of the Resistance Army had greatly improved.
For this reason, the Development Team had removed the outer orbital defense device. Obviously, they had allowed the war to begin fairly.
After receiving a huge boost, the "players" of the Rebellion Army were eager to give it a try. They were no longer limited to defense, and they even assumed an offensive stance. All of them gathered at the border, ready to charge into the Domini Star System at any time.
"Commander, because of your hesitation, we have lost the best opportunity to attack. Now that the Resistance Army is ready, it is impossible for us to defeat them in one go!" Eammon complained to Aurelia with great dissatisfaction.
"Then let them be ready. Why do we have to fight them?" Aurelia finally revealed her true intention.
"Huh?" Eammon was completely dumbfounded. He did not understand why Aurelia would spend the military funds of the Giant Jaw to station such a huge fleet in the Domini Star System. If she did not want to destroy the Valsalrian Legion in one fell swoop, wouldn't she be doing this for nothing?
Of course, Aurelia did not have nothing better to do. She felt that the Empire's military expenditure was too high and wanted to spend some of it. Her real purpose was to cover for Jiang Fei, but obviously, she could not tell Eammon this reason.
"General Eammon, I can understand your feelings, but the Empire has its own considerations. Please don't get emotional," Aurelia said unhurriedly.
"You guys …" Eammon hung up the communication. In the face of a group of NPCs, he really had nowhere to vent his anger.
"The Development Team is crazy! What kind of PVP mission is this? Are these NPCs all designed by idiots? "Eammon was so angry that he cursed in his warship.
"Boss, these NPCs are not willing to fight with us. What should we do? Go over by ourselves? "asked one of the minions.
"Go over by ourselves? Don't you see that the Development Team has been acting like crazy recently? They've been organizing activities for the 'players' of the Resistance Army. What kind of equipment do they have now? "Eammon roared angrily.
"Then what should we do?" asked another minion.
"Build an orbital defense facility, then wait with these idiotic NPCs for the enemy to come over by themselves. Those newbies have gotten so much powerful equipment, it would be strange if they did not come over to show off!" Eammon said disdainfully.
