Chapter 292: Bloodlands
Mark nodded. "Yeah. I double-checked it before accepting. The quest is called ’Welcome to the Bloodlands.’ The objective is vague. It only says: ’Perform the Rite of Descent and awaken the slumbering gate to the Bloodlands. Only those with true blood may enter.’ That’s it."
Mark knew that the quest was important because of its S rank, but now, after seeing Damon’s expression, he couldn’t help but become curious about this whole thing.
Damon leaned back in his chair and let out a long breath, his expression unreadable, though a hundred flickers of memory, power, and warning bells echoed in his head.
The Bloodlands! The holy grail for all the dark faction players!
"Dude, you just got the quest opener for going to the dark faction territory! It’s a major class quest, and the reward is most definitely a freaking legendary item!" Damon finally spelled it out loud.
Mark blinked. "Wait, wait, what?!"
Damon grinned now, all unreadable caution gone and replaced by the kind of excitement that made blood sing. He leaned forward, elbows on the table, his eyes glowing bright crimson.
"You have no idea what you stumbled onto, do you? This isn’t just some S-rank quest. This is the gateway to the Bloodlands. That place isn’t just a zone, it’s a whole new territory meant exclusively for the dark faction."
In his last life, this portal only opened after 6 months, and by that time, many people had even switched from the dark faction to the light faction just because dark faction players were always hunted and their opportunities were limited when compared to the light faction players.
But the opening up of this portal was a game-changer. Now, the dark faction also had a base and a home, and a lot more juicy power-up opportunities. With the blood hall wars about to happen, this was the perfect time for this portal to open up.
