Robin ignored the shouts of the guards, his eyes fixed coldly on Caroline, as if asking: "Where did all that arrogance go? What happened to the bravado you had just a moment ago?"

Zhou Yuan realized with a start that the Great Qian’s grand display was merely a move to build momentum for Qian Qing, ensuring his succession to the throne would be more secure.

No matter how tanky a top-laner might be, they would find themselves in agony when faced with the true damage of Vayne, the Night Hunter.

"Nonsense, I smelled the medicinal plaster the moment I walked into the room," Lin Fei said with a frown.

"She is not within this realm," Jiang Ying stated. "However, Master, with the help of the Heavenly Fate Ring, you have wiped out ninety eternal-level powerhouses of the Zerg race in one fell swoop. There is no longer any trace of Zerg bloodline within their territories."

"Sophia, is something the matter?" Lin Fei asked in a low voice, looking at her anxious face.

Lin Fei’s teeth ached with fury. He clenched his iron fists, wishing he could return to that moment and beat those bastards to death with his own hands.

It now possessed an ability similar to a pet contract. After subduing an enemy with mental force, it could forcibly bind them to a pet contract, gaining control over their physical body.

For a moment, he did not recognize these people as members of the Underworld Clan, assuming they were simply powerful dark-element mages.

"Sounds like fun. In that case, I’ll join the multiplayer tournament. Laurent, do you want to come along?" Solomon asked, turning to the person beside him.

This was a miraculous mutant beast never before seen in history, and besides, with its current form, it remained to be seen whether one could even kill it at all.

Through his subtle inquiries, he learned that these people were known as "Awakened."

Tian Zhong tossed the Investiture of the Gods toward Bai Jian. After a brief look, it didn't seem like much; to someone who had attained sainthood like him, it was just a tattered rag. But for those whose names were inscribed upon it, it was both a shackle that could never be shaken off and a source of immortality.

He transformed into a plum blossom and fled frantically, but with a wave of Chen Feng's hand, a massive torrent of genetic energy engulfed him, cutting off all paths of retreat.

Stephen believed that by analyzing the laws of the planes, he could further his divine power. One does not need to undergo deification to master the laws within the multiverse. Anyone who truly studies history would find that the birth of the pantheon of gods occurred no more than one hundred thousand years ago.

Although Huang Tianhua did not know Yang Jian and had never met him, Jiang Ziya had briefed him before the battle. Knowing that the Flower Fox Marten was a transformation of a fellow practitioner, he was not alarmed but delighted when Mo Lishou released the beast, realizing his chance had come.

To arrive at the Imperial Temple in the capital by dusk, the Blue Bird flew at a leisurely pace, almost appearing to doze off along the way.

Twenty years ago, while everyone else was muddling through their days, he had attended literacy classes. The captain felt his own political awareness was excellent.

Although the decision to sacrifice himself had been made three months ago, and there was no room for regret or remorse, when the moment finally arrived, the bitterness in his heart was far greater than he had anticipated.

Ten days from now, at a specific moment, a mysterious organization would launch an attack on him. First, a large number of Grade A powerhouses would arrive to engage in combat and tie down the fighting strength of the Gene Union, followed by a large-scale, long-range assault, with thousands of various types of attacks expected to strike Chen Feng.

Lin Jie didn't think much of it, but the girl felt a bit self-conscious under the various gazes and, with a *poof*, turned into a leopard and ran off to find Ping Guo Ya Ya.

The hands of the [Flame Knight] possessed enough heat to melt metal railings. In a head-on clash, how could it only result in slight burns to the hands of [Stone Free]?

The people Li Mu'er knew were also stunned, cheering for her while complaining that she had hidden her talents so deeply, never letting them get a glimpse before.

"That damn Sha Qianmo is simply too arrogant! He actually massacred Shushan and seized the Shackling Heaven Chain!" roared the hot-tempered leader of Penglai, Ni Qianzhang. Beyond his anger, there was a trace of fear; his strength was no greater than Daoist Qingxu’s, and if the Seven Kills Sect could wipe out Shushan, they could do the same to Penglai.

Several others were switching to weekly or monthly updates because their performance was poor. The few remaining titles were also mediocre, with some showing signs of being abandoned or rushed to a lackluster end.

These Tiger Guards were all elite troops trained by his own hand. Whenever skeletons formed a formation, the Tiger Guards would switch between close-quarters steel forks and long-range throwing forks, managing to hold the precarious frontline.

The people in the vehicle were thrown forward uncontrollably by Zhong Rong's movement, then slammed heavily back against their seats.

Fielding told him the cause of the incident. It turned out that during the camp mutiny last night, enemy spies had left behind countless letters, including orders for him from the Temple of Light, a retreat order from Duke Bellas, and even impeachment documents from the Council of Elders.

Even after bribing many high-level developers, they were all clueless. It was as if the game had simply appeared out of thin air, which was truly astonishing.

Yu Province had the largest area but was the most barren, with a moderate concentration of spiritual energy. Li Province had the harshest environment, filled with demonic aura, making it unsuitable for human survival.

Qian Yi was also a bit embarrassed, but she wasn't responsible for personnel arrangements. Although it was somewhat unfair to An Hao, as a newcomer to the workforce, the best resources would naturally be picked by senior colleagues first. As a newcomer, one just had to work hard without complaint.

"He is a god? What kind of god? A sleepwalking god?" Ling covered her mouth and giggled, her laughter clear and carefree like silver bells.

Su Muchen walked over to Yuxuan and took her hand. "At least your hands are still warm. On such a cold day, don't sit by this freezing lake; the chill is too strong!" With that, he gently brushed the white snow off Yuxuan and pulled her wool hat down.

Not just her, even the Aihara twins were bewildered and incredulous. When they spoke on the phone, she clearly said she was resting at home. Why was she appearing with the Rikkaidai team?

It was a statement, not a guarantee, nor an oath. It was a declaration of something he was doing now and would do in the future; it was a statement of fact.

"If I want to avoid trouble, I must produce results for the masters above to see. Only by proving my loyalty and value can I gain a greater chance of survival," Zhan Tie thought to himself, though he couldn't pinpoint when his mind had begun to grasp his predicament.

He would be like Chu Yan. Even Zhang Niujiao admitted that Chu Yan's talent was no less than his own, and with the advantage of age, he would surely surpass him in the future.
