As soon as Jiang Fei logged into the game, before he could even greet Isabella, a series of system notifications rang out.
"Ding! The Faction Region is now fully open! "
"Ding! All players may teleport to the Faction Region from the main city! "
"Ding! All players, please select your Faction before heading to the Faction Region. Players from the Light Faction will be teleported to the Divine Light Fortress. Players from the Dark Faction will be teleported to the Demon Flame Fortress. Players from the Neutral Faction will be teleported to the City of Sinners! "
After checking the system notifications, Jiang Fei chatted with Isabella for a while. Then, he noticed that players were starting to appear in the Teleportation Point of the Demon Flame Fortress.
As the concept of the main city no longer existed in the Faction Region, after entering the Demon Flame Fortress, players would no longer be hostile toward each other because they were from different cities. On the contrary, players who were originally from the same city might become red-named because they had chosen a different Faction.
The players who arrived in the new map experienced the Guided Quest that Jiang Fei had previously done. There were specialized NPCs who brought them to understand the rules of this new world so that they could quickly adapt to the new game mode.
About two hours into the game, a system announcement sounded!
"Ding! The Nephilim King Augustus has declared war on the Light Faction on behalf of the entire Dark Faction! "
This was the notification that Jiang Fei had received. On the other hand, the Light Faction had received the notification that the Divine Light God had declared war on the Dark Faction on behalf of the Light Faction.
"It's finally here!" Jiang Fei mumbled to himself. At the same time, all the players realized that they could not move. The game had entered Story Mode.
"Beep …" A loud horn sounded in the Demon Flame Fortress. At the same time, the Light Faction had also begun to move.
Jiang Fei's vision was now separated from his surroundings. It was as if he was watching a movie. All the Dark Faction players, including Jiang Fei, had shifted their vision to the main entrance of the Demon Flame Fortress.
"Ta ta ta ta …" A large number of soldiers marched in an orderly manner in front of the Demon Flame Fortress. Then, they lined up neatly and marched toward the battlefield in the distance.
"Screech!" A sharp arrow pierced through the sky. Following that, squads of aerial cavalry flew over the fortress and headed straight for the battlefield.
* Rumble rumble rumble … * The huge chariot rumbled as it slowly moved towards the direction of the battlefield!
"Today! It's the day we fight those hypocrites from the Light Faction! Brave warriors of the demon race, charge! " The cavalry commander, Heinz, waved his sword as he rode on his skeletal warhorse. Then, a group of cavalry followed behind him and galloped towards the battlefield!
At this point, the plot animation ended, and Jiang Fei and the others' perspective returned to normal.
"F * ck! What a grand scene! " Jiang Fei pursed his lips. In the previous animation, there were more than thirty armies heading to the battlefield. Each army had at least a hundred thousand soldiers. From the looks of it, the Light and Dark Factions were about to have an epic battle!
"F * ck! It felt so good! Let's go to the frontline to take a look … "
"Go! Let's go! Who knows, there might even be some good things to pick up! "
…
Many solo players began to meet up and head to the frontlines of the war. However, players from guilds were relatively calm. They were all waiting for their guilds to dispatch them.
"How do you guys plan to play?" Jiang Fei asked in the guild official channel.
"Let's organize the players to train first. I've already selected the maps that you gave me. The sooner we get there, the sooner we can occupy them!" Lady Casanova said.
"Yeah, leveling up is more important now!" Billy Boy did not even say that he wanted to join the battle.
"Alright! You guys go and organize the players! " Jiang Fei nodded. He was afraid that these people would be fooled by the plot animation just now and go straight to the battlefield.
Although the animation was exciting, this was a game, after all, and the expansion pack wasn't going to end in three days. The battle was bound to take a long time, and the players who weren't even level 50 wouldn't be able to help much if they joined the battle.
Jiang Fei looked at the Level Ranking Board. At this time, there was a significant change. As the four main cities had merged, the players were no longer divided into cities. Therefore, the original City Level Ranking Board had become the Faction Level Ranking Board.
Jiang Fei still occupied the first place on the Level Ranking Board with his absolute strength of Level 69. As Seven Star Warrior had been leading people in Dungeons for a long time, his level was relatively high. At this time, he was already Level 50 and ranked second on the Level Ranking Board.
The remaining third to tenth place players were all Level 49. Empyreal Dragon's dominance of the Level Ranking Board was no longer possible. After all, the four major cities had fused together. There were experts everywhere. It was already impressive enough that Jiang Fei's guild had two people occupying the first and second places on the Level Ranking Board.
At this time, the average level of the Dark Faction was 45 while the average level of the Light Faction was 47. The reason why the average level of the Light Faction was higher was because they had fewer people.
As Jiang Fei had previously beaten up Cosmic Dragon, he had used his identity as a Nephilim to beat up Cosmic Dragon, who represented the Celestial race. Therefore, when the players chose to join the Light Faction, they naturally preferred to join the strong side. Other than Cosmic Dragon's loyal fans and allies, the players who chose the Light Faction were mostly players who truly liked the style of the Light Faction. These people were generally stronger.
On the other hand, the players who followed the crowd followed Jiang Fei and chose to join the Dark Faction. Although there was strength in numbers, the average level was naturally lower.
However, the average level did not represent combat power. In terms of players, the Dark Faction was definitely several times stronger than the Light Faction. Therefore, in order to balance the strength of both sides, the Light Faction could only increase the number of NPC soldiers in the Light Faction so that the two sides could maintain as much combat power as possible.
As the NPC soldiers were all Level 70, if the players wanted to be the main force in the war, they would need to be at least Level 62. After the level suppression was removed, the players' advantage in numbers would be reflected. Otherwise, no matter how many players there were, they would only be a group of cannon fodder.
It was precisely because of this reason that the smarter guilds did not immediately choose to join the war. Instead, they organized their players to seize the time to train. After all, the monsters in the faction area dropped good items and gave a lot of Experience points. The speed of leveling up here was at least five times faster than in the main city area.
Before this, Jiang Fei had already explored the map of the Demon Flame Fortress in the faction area. While he was traveling with Isabella and the other girls, he also looked for suitable places to train. Jiang Fei's map of the area near the Demon Dragon Fortress was very detailed. Lady Casanova and the others had even made a plan. With the Demon Dragon Fortress as the center, the area within a radius of tens of miles had become Empyreal Dragon's backyard.
