Chapter 1050: Huge Difference

To the adventure gamemode players, the country war was a bet that could not be lost.

Different from how Lord players chased for merit points and land, adventure gamemode players joined the country war would be awarded points based on their contribution to the battle.

Gaia was fair. Similar to how Lords could enjoy the points from bringing their armies, guild leaders could enjoy the contribution points from their guild members and hence obtain huge amounts of points.

Hence, this country war not only affected one’s honor, but it was also a battle between super guilds.

What were the use of contribution points?

Similar to the Battle Map, during the country war period, Gaia would open up a country war commerce city. Adventure gamemode players would use their points to exchange for different products in the city.

After five years of observation, Gaia understood exactly what adventure gamemode players wanted.

To the adventure gamemode players, no matter what time it was in the game, secret manuals, weapons, equipment, and skill books would be their lifelong dream, and that would not stop.

With dark gold equipment, one would crave for platinum equipment, with platinum equipment, one would crave for God Rank equipment.

One would always stare at the taller mountain.

The items placed in the country war commerce city were basically these three types of items, and they were all rarely seen elite products that people drooled for. Along with Gaia cancelling the auction, elite items like these were becoming rarer and rarer.

Just this alone made it worth it for adventure gamemode players to take this risk.

Risk it all, risk it all.

Were they not born to do this?

Win and all their equipment would be changed to new ones with much better stats. If they lose, they would be total goners.

So this was a battle that people bet their lives on.

Especially as the world martial arts competition was proceeding; it motivated the adventure gamemode players. Anyone with ambition would gather up at the gathering points excitedly.

The China region had 100 million players, and just the combat occupation players exceeded 10 million.

In the following five days, a total of three million combat occupation players gathered up at the gathering points and were ready to throw themselves into this legendary battle.

Three million combat occupation players was as much as 10 super guilds.

The China region players were passionate for the country war, making one satisfied and delighted when they looked on.

Ouyang Shuo was one of the greatest beneficiaries. As there were many players who joined in, to prevent them from lacking enemies, some smart ones chose the Korea battlefield, and some chose Zhenla and Nanzhang.

Many adventure gamemode players joining in greatly lowered the country war risk of Great Xia.

On the 29th day, of the three million combat occupation players, half of them chose to join the Japanese battlefield, and the specific number was around 1.65 million.

Amongst which, 900 thousand of them chose the north route, which was the Shanhai Alliance route.

The truth proved that more people preferred Great Xia in the China region.

Although there were 750 thousand players who chose the south, and the difference was not much, one must not forget that six super guilds were under Di Chen.

Great Xia only had three super guilds for Japan due to them fighting on three sides.

This also meant that apart from the six super guilds, the south route only had around 200 thousand scattered players whilst there were 600 thousand on the north route.

One against three, the difference was huge.

If it were not for some players being afraid that the competition in the north would be too intense, this difference might be even greater.

That was understandable.

The six families could only control the elite level and had no influence on normal players. On the contrary, Ouyang Shuo was a legendary grassroots person who had an unparalleled attraction amongst this player group.

This was without considering the million players on the Korea battlefield as well as the 350 thousand players that went toward the Nanzhang and Zhenla battlefield. If not, the gap would humiliate Di Chen.

The moment the results were out, not only Di Chen, but the six big families were all stunned.

They knew that Ouyang Shuo had huge influence amongst commoners, but that was just an impression after all. There were no actual statistics.

When this fact was placed right in front of their eyes, they could truly feel how huge Ouyang Shuo’s influence was in China.

News had it that the moment the results came out, the Feng Family grandfather had locked himself in his reading room and did not come out for an entire night. Obviously, his thoughts were stimulated by all this.

Maybe he was not the only one that had a sleepless night. A large change was quietly sprouting.

...

Even Ouyang Shuo himself felt a little surprised.

The moment the results came out, Ouyang Shuo was both happy and worried. Why he was happy did not need to be explained, as such influence was the basis of Ouyang Shuo’s future goals.

He was worried that because of the data, he could not keep it low profile.

“I’m too high profile!”

Ouyang Shuo sighed in his heart. He was a pure utilitarian and always held the theory to do things high profile and be a low profile person. He liked to hide in the dark to amass power and gain things like that.

However, along with him being revealed, Ouyang Shuo could not be low profile. No matter what he did, there would be numerous eyes staring at him. Just like being placed under a microscope and being observed by people at every moment.

“I might have no rest in the future.”

Ouyang Shuo was filled with thoughts. Although that was the case, he weirdly felt no fear. Instead, his heart was really calm, “No worries, from this moment onward, I’ll take the center stage!”

Being high profile had its benefits.

Ouyang Shuo had to adapt to living under the limelight sooner or later.

...

Gaia 5th year, 6th month, 1st day, Beihai Bay.

During these past few days, Ouyang Shuo had sent four batches of troops. This time, he personally embarked, stepping on this either glorious or dark journey.

Behind him were a few special guests.

They were the Fallen Phoenix City Lord Feng Qiuhuang, Blood Evil Mercenary Guild Blood Romance, Snow-War Rose Mercenary Guild leader Xie Siyun and Streamer leader Haoran Qishi.

During these past few days, Lin Jing had brought the elite troops of Snow-War Rose and left.

Adding in Ouyang Shuo himself, the five of them were the main leaders of the north route. Specific instructions would be given by Li Jing while the elite forces were led by their leaders.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo jokingly called themselves the Japanese tourists who just watched the fun and did not do anything.

As for the scattered players, Ouyang Shuo did not think about gathering up, as he did not have the ability to do so. Once they disembarked, he had no way to hold them.

As it was already the country war month, those setting out had basically already set out. Just last night, the Li Jing led Bear Legion Corps had set off under the protection of the 5th division of the Yashan Squadron.

Hence, the Beihai Bay today was quite cold, and only the Emperor Squadron was docked here.

The Emperor was still so eye-catching, making the following Blood Romance and the others look on with their mouths agape. They did not expect that Great Xia would actually be able to craft such a majestic warship.

Facing the awe of Blood Romance, Ouyang Shuo smiled and did not say anything. How would they know that Great Xia had made the even better iron armored warships their building priority?

If nothing went wrong, the first experimental warship would soon enter the water.

After getting on the Emperor, they were not in a hurry to rush off, as they were waiting.

At 9 AM, the System Notification sounded punctually.

“World Notification: the first country war month has begun, lasting for a month. Country war leaders, please select your country war buff based on your country’s honor points, effective immediately. Country war leaders who have the country weapon can activate country fate buff. For the specific situation, please check it out yourself!”

...

China had 40 honor points, which were all obtained by Great Xia. They could choose a total 40% of buffs, and the types were attack, defense, and speed.

After the notification ended, Ouyang Shuo followed his plans and chose 20 for attack and 20 on defense.

Attack and defense balance was the way of the king.

At the same time, Ouyang Shuo took a look at the country fate buff brought by the Xuanyuan Sword.

Imposing: increases movement speed of China Region troops by 20%, battle point contribution increased added by 5%.

“That’s not bad.” Ouyang Shuo nodded in satisfaction.

Just like that, all the participating China region troops, including the players, would enjoy 20% buffs of all three aspects. This would raise their strength by a level.

Such treatment could only be enjoyed by the China region.

Other countries had at most 10 honor points.

One must know that this buff was not only limited to the Japan battlefield, as it was the same for the Korea, Nanzhang, and Zhenla battlefield.

Even if it were within the country, as long as a fight occurs, they would enjoy a similar buff.

Ouyang Shuo closed his personal interface and took in a deep breath, looking toward the ocean, waving his hand forward powerfully.

“Advance!”

With the order given, the Emperor Squadron finally left the port.

Just as Ouyang Shuo and the group stepped on their journey, the Pacific Squadron that had set off four days ago had already arrived near the ocean regions around Hokkaido and were engaging the Japanese squadron that were patrolling.

A huge plot was slowly hanging over the heads of Great Xia.
