Cursed Immortality

Chapter 348 The Structure Of Epic Plains

[AN: Iʼm making a significant but important change in ranks because many people still donʼt understand the ranks fully, and it only causes more confusion. I considered changing it for some time but decided to wait until the last volume was over because it would be quite confusing if I changed it in the middle of it. And I canʼt change it from the start either since it would be problematic for old readers. So, I would like everyone to take this inconvenience with a pinch of salt.]

[Change: I will no longer use the [Type Rank]. It will be changed with the normal ranks of Common, Rare, Extraordinary, etc. But the Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels will remain the same but for only materials, technology, knowledge, treasures, and such. The Tiers will be exclusive for power rankings, nothing else.]

[To make it even easier for others to understand where the Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced stand with the Power Tiers. Just divide the total tiers by 3, and youʼll have corresponding tiers with the Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. For example, the Common Ranks has 12 tiers, so the first four will be equivalent to the Basic level of Common Treasure, the 4th to 8th will be Intermediate, while the last four will be Advanced.]

[So now Power, Physical, Magic or Evaluation Ranks are Common (12 Tiers), Rare (9 Tiers), Extraordinary (6 Tiers), Epic (9-Tiers), Unique (9-Tiers), and Legendary with 4 States and a total of 30 tiers.]

[As for their corresponding Ranks, which have nothing to do with the aforementioned power ranks, they will be the same rank names but just have three (Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced) levels.]

[The Type Star Authority and Star Privilege will now be simply 1-Star Authority or 2-Star Privilege. Likewise, the plains will be the same. I plan to use This straightforward ranking map up the Legendary Rank. I hope this will solve all the confusion about ranks!]

[Thank you all, now on to the story!]

The Epic Plains were massive, and compared with the Rare Plains, the latter was but a fragment of these vast lands.

Furthermore, unlike the ignorant masses of the Rare Freedom Plains, the aborigines were fully aware of the concept of the Plains Trial, Life Plain, and Dead Plain.

As for why, it was because the Epic Plains had no concept of Nations, Countries, or Kingdoms. There was only one concept; either they belonged to the Life Faction or the Dead Faction.

All the Living Beings belonged to the Life Faction, and all the Dark Beings belonged to the Dead Faction. It was that simple.

The territories of the Life Faction were known as the Alive Plains. Furthermore, the Three Hegemonies fully controlled the Alive Plains without any leeway, and thatʼs why the Alive Plains were divided into three massive regions.

The first and most powerful region, the Zodiac Warrior Alliance Region, is where most of the people or the Fighter Races who have talent in the path of a Combatant live.

The second and most magical region, the Alchemy Region, was controlled by the Alchemy Guild, which was the home for the Wiser Races with talent in the path of Magic.

The third and richest region, the Universal Zodiac Taurus Bank Region, is the home of the Universal Mercenary Agency!

These three regions represent three hegemonies and have their own unique specialties. There were no restrictions on the members from entering another hegemonyʼs region. People were free from any restrictions. As long as they wonʼt cause trouble, they can enter any place in the Alive Plains.

Because the three hegemonies represent the Life Faction, and so long as someone was alive, they could enter the Alive Plains and any region and even choose to live wherever they wanted. Of course, only if they can afford the living costs because it was not that simple.

Anyhow, the three hegemonies were in place to nurture those people so they could fight against the Dead Faction in the Epic Plains.

Thatʼs why the hundreds of cities present in the three regions were simply known as Alive Alliance Cities, Alive Alchemy Cities, or Alive Bank Cities according to the region they belonged to, and they all have unique numbers.

Any Alive City under three-digit numbers (1 to 99) was known as Large City. The Medium Size Cities were those within the range of three-digit numbers but lower than four digits (100 to 999). At the same time, the Small size cities all have numbers above three digits.

”What a strange way to distribute these cities, and these numbers seemed to have more than what the information I was given….”

In the middle of the deep blue ocean, a black triangle was floating over clear water, and a long silver hair, devilishly handsome man was muttering to himself. At the same time, he looked at the virtual map shining over his wrist with scrutiny.

His emotionless but focused emotionless eyes shimmered as he wondered, ”I guess when so many different races are involved in this Alive Plains, there is bound to be discrimination and racism. I donʼt believe, despite having a common enemy, those guys from the Life Faction would be so united. The Killer Skull Society is proof of it….”

This man muttering to himself was none other than Jacob, who was studying the map of the Alive Plains given to him by Ellie for the fifth time!

Itʼs been ten months since Jacob embarked on the voyage toward the Epic Plains!

The journey in these ten months was relatively peaceful and without any hitch as Jacob followed the map Ellie gave him.

However, today, he has to stop in the middle of nowhere because he was Autarch run out of hosts for his abortion.

Before leaving the Rare Plains, Jacob had filled with pendant with all sorts of small Magic Extraordinary Magic Beasts. It took ten whole months for Autarch to devour them and increase his physical rank to the peak of Rare Rank, and now he can finally go on with his magic core ranks.

But Jacobʼs pendant was the only thing that could stow living things into it, so he had no choice but to stop here to find new hosts for Autarch to raise his own magic core rank.

Furthermore, Jacob also needs some fresh air and movement after traveling for so long.

”Sigh…” Jacob sighed as he closed the star watch interface and looked into the deep ocean.

Despite the sun shining at its peak, the Star Ocean seemed infinitely deep, and Jacob only stopped in this place because, on the map, this area was not marked dangerous.

Furthermore, in a week, he would enter the Epic Boundary, which means from that point on, the weakest threat he would encounter would be an Epic, and that was where the actual danger lies.

Jacob was still over 3 to 4 years away from the Epic Plains, so he had to be extremely careful from unknown dangers lies ahead!
