Jiang Fei's father was not very happy with Jiang Fei's behavior of bringing another lady back home. However, he did not make a fuss out of it. Jiang Fei also did not dare to bring the topic up.

When it was time to rest in the evening, Ariel wanted to sleep in the same room with Jiang Fei. However, Shang Guanqi had prevented it using her status as his elder sister. In the end, Si Tuying also stayed over. She and Ariel were both dragged by Shang Guanqi into her room.

"Little Fei, you are an adult now. Moreover, your path is unlike the rest of us humans. I can no longer control you. However, as a man, you need to be responsible for the people around you. I do not wish to see you hurting Little Ying!" Jiang Fei's father said before walking into his own room.

"Ehh… I had no intentions of doing so either…" Jiang Fei sighed.

According to 0541's plan, Jiang Fei needed to revive a large number of women from the game to fight against the ma.s.ses of mutant armies. He could not imagine how messy things would become then. However, Jiang Fei promised himself that he would not let the girls closest to him get hurt. Although he could not protect those who treated him with the Infatuated state, he would do his best to protect the women he cared about the most.

After returning to his own room, Jiang Fei rested for a while before entering the game.

When Jiang Fei logged into the game, he was in the Demon Flame Fortress. As he did not have any matches for the day, Jiang Fei decided to do the main storyline quest the Nephilim King had given him.

Frontline Commander Ivan was still standing in front of the sand table in the Commander's Hall. Fritz and Heinz had both gone to the frontline camps.

"Frontline Commander Ivan, were you looking for me?" Jiang Fei asked.

"I see, his majesty had sent you to help me! That's great!" Ivan smiled when he saw Jiang Fei.

"Ding! Quest completed!"

After receiving a system notification, as well as some gold coins, Jiang Fei also received some meager Experience points. However, Jiang Fei did not care about those. He was more keen to find out about the continuation of the quest from Ivan.

"What can I help you with?" Jiang Fei asked.

"I do actually need your help with something. However, it's not something you can accomplish on your own!" Ivan said with a frown.

"What should I do then?" Jiang Fei asked.

"You need a group!" Ivan said.

"Ding! Quest renewed! Please form a group with two hundred players and report to Frontline Commander Ivan!"

"Ohh… It's a group quest…" Jiang Fei was stunned at first. However, he instantly understood what was going on.

Some quests in the game required group partic.i.p.ation. Regardless of how strong a player was, the group quest could not be accepted by one person.

Such a rigid rule meant Jiang Fei had no choice but to reach out to Lady Casanova.

Everything related to money in the Empyreal Dragon was under the jurisdiction of Rosette Rose, whereas anything related to manpower in battle was Lady Casanova's responsibility.

"Two hundred? PvP or PvE?" Lady Casanova was naturally much more experienced as the acting guild master than Jiang Fei was.

"It doesn't matter…" Jiang Fei said. To be honest, he did not really care about who the rest of the members were in his group of two hundred players. After all, he had already gotten used to fighting alone.

"That won't do. They have entirely different setups!" Lady Casanova said seriously.

"Then let's go with PvP. There's a higher chance for that!" Jiang Fei said after some thinking. After all, it was a battle-related quest and was even a main storyline quest. Therefore, Jiang Fei hypothesized that the Light Faction's players might be involved.

"Alright. I'll send Billy Boy over with the rest!" Lady Casanova said.

Empyreal Dragon had become a super guild with over 500,000 players a long time ago. It was an easy feat to gather two hundred elite players. After around ten minutes, Billy Boy and two-hundred-and-forty other players came looking for Jiang Fei.

"Why did you bring so many players?" Jiang Fei saw that Billy Boy had brought way more players than needed.

"Replacements!" Billy Boy said in a matter-of-fact way. As someone who had led guild activities for a long time, Billy Boy knew that both PvE and PvP activities required sufficient replacements in case of emergency. Sometimes, they would also have to change their setup due to certain overpowering group dynamics from the opponents.

"Alright! Just do it however you wish as long as you form a group with two hundred of us!" Jiang Fei said as he created a new group and added Billy Boy into the group.

"You recruit the rest." Jiang Fei gave Billy Boy the administrative right of recruiting. He then scanned the group of players. "Where is Seven Stars Warrior?"

"He has a match today." Little Rain answered. Ever since he had joined Billy Boy, Little Rain had thoroughly thrown himself into the world of PvP. He had immersed himself in killing other players through group battles with the help of his own Seal Curse Spell and the Ring of Decimation Jiang Fei had given him.

"Oh? How is he doing?" Jiang Fei asked curiously. Although Jiang Fei was also in the compet.i.tion, he had never seen Seven Stars Warrior in action.

"He is doing alright. Except for when he fought against the insane players, he would win 90% of the time! He should be able to get into the second round with ease!" Little Rain said.

The insane players Little Rain had referred to were none other than the players with Cauldrons of the Ancient Kingdom. For people without the cauldrons, these players with 100,000 additional points for certain Attributes were a bug-like existence.

After Jiang Fei chatted with Little Rain for a while longer, Billy Boy was done forming the group.

"Great job, you guys! You have all levelled up pretty quickly!" Jiang Fei was surprised when he saw the players' levels in the group.

Apart from Jiang Fei, the highest level in the group was the Seal Curse Magician Little Rain who was Level 72. Everyone else was basically either Level 67 or Level 68.

"That's because they are all part of the PvP group. If it was the PvE group, most of the players would already be Level 69!" Billy Boy laughed as he spoke. Although PvP players could earn Experience points from killing other players in the opposite faction, killing players was much more difficult than killing monsters. Therefore, the progress in levelling was much slower.

After Jiang Fei chatted with Billy Boy for a while longer, he learned about how fast the players in the faction region had levelled up. Most of the players had already reached an average of Level 63. The players Billy Boy had brought along were players who were the cream of the crop. Therefore, they all naturally had higher levels than the rest.

"We are getting closer to the day of the war!" Jiang Fei nodded to himself. When he had a.s.saulted the underground base, 0541 had obtained quite a lot of information about the game. Jiang Fei was able to find out that once the average level of players reached Level 65, the battle between the Light and Dark Factions would no longer be a small scale battle. Instead, it would develop into a huge war!
