Apocalypse: Become stronger by absorbing flames at the start; my name is the Flame Emperor.

A blazing holy fire ignited in the Pope's hand, the white flames enveloping the angel's heart and relentlessly melting and obliterating even the last trace of the angel's will within.

"Ahhhhh—"

A heart-wrenching scream emanated from within, echoing throughout the heavens and earth.

It sent chills down everyone's spine.

One minute later.

The angel's figure vanished completely, leaving only the Pope standing alone in the void.

In his right hand, a small, pure white heart floated slowly.

Lucifer.

The Pope's majestic voice echoed in the void.

"His Majesty!"

Lucifer hurried over, with utmost respect.

Who would have thought that the silent Pope possessed such terrifying strength, even more so than the Super S-rank beings present?

This made them, who were so proud and arrogant, no longer dare to be too presumptuous.

"The angelic will within this angelic heart has been extinguished. Take it and fuse it with the other angels." The Pope raised his hand.

The angel's heart slowly flew over.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lucifer accepted it respectfully, his heart filled with immense excitement.

"By completely fusing with this angel's heart, your power will surpass that of an angel."

The Pope's voice slowly drifted over: "Don't disappoint me again in the upcoming Hundred Kingdoms War."

"yes!"

-

The major powers have been investing all their resources in the top fighters who are participating in the war.

Nine days.

On the ranking list, there are more than 100 fourth-tier powerhouses.

On this side of eternal daylight.

Chen Jing'er, Ye Piaopiao, Lu Qi and other super S-level powerhouses have acquired fourth-tier crystal cores during this period and contributed them all, which instantly made Shenfa, Yushen, Lin Xiaoyou and Wang Kang become fourth-tier powerhouses.

Lin Yu went even further, reaching the fourth rank, level six.

During this period, he wiped out all the fourth-tier beings in the entire Cangmang Mountain range, except for the very central area.

His overall strength has once again been greatly enhanced.

In the guild hall.

"Kang, if you encounter a really strong opponent in the second round tomorrow, don't be reckless. Tear up your safety card and run, understand?"

An Qingrou gently draped a coat over Wang Kang's shoulders and tenderly gave him instructions.

Now that we've entered the second round, those who remain are all quite strong, with many being above S-rank.

Moreover, the major powers had united against Great Xia, which made her somewhat worried.

After all, Wang Kang's strength is now halfway into the Super S rank, but he's not quite Super S yet. If he were to be attacked by multiple people, it would still be very dangerous.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Wang Kang held An Qingrou's small hand, smiled slightly, but a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

-

The war between the hundred nations resumed the next day.

All those who participated in the battle were enveloped by beams of light that pierced through the heavens and earth.

A familiar battlefield.

Lin Yu looked around and realized he was still all alone.

At that moment, the voice of the rules resounded in everyone's minds.

[Dear participants, in this round, all you need to do is obtain a designated identity card and survive. Note: In addition to being targeted by another participant, each person's identity card will also be coveted by a mysterious creature.]

Everyone was shocked when they saw this news.

Mysterious creature?

Could it be that there are other mysterious beings in this world besides humans?

This news put everyone on high alert.

Even the onlookers watching the live stream noticed it.

Everything seemed to be under the control of the rules, like a giant hand manipulating the fate of all living beings.

On the battlefield.

A character slowly appeared in front of each person.

That's the opponent's number plate.

A large number 563 slowly appeared in front of Lin Yu.

"So, everyone will encounter at least three opponents."

Lin Yu watched this scene and muttered to himself.

Besides needing to obtain the number 563, which means defeating at least enemy number 563, your own number 6 will also end up in someone else's hand, meaning you have two enemies.

In addition, there is a mysterious enemy.

There are three in total.

"563?"

Lin Yu remembered that numbers starting with 500 belonged to the country of Hika.

In other words, his opponents are the evolved beings from the Kingdom of Shika.

"However, we don't know how big the battlefield will be this time, so finding people will always be too troublesome."

Just as Lin Yu was still having a headache—

The void in front of him suddenly cracked open, and a compass-like object fell out from it.

"What is this thing?"

Each player has a positioning compass that guides them to their desired identity card. However, be aware that there's a time limit for capturing an opponent's identity card; you must complete this within three days, or you'll be eliminated.

The voice of the rules rang out again, surprising and delighting everyone.

The good thing is that this makes finding opponents much easier.

Surprisingly, I was also extremely easy to find when I was with other people.

The compass can only guide you to the identity plaque you need.

However, the enemies who need your identity card, as well as the so-called mysterious creature, are all lurking in the shadows, which makes it very dangerous.

now.

In a dark place, Chizuru looked at the enemy's identification card in the void in front of her, her face extremely grim.

Because the number above is 6.

He knew perfectly well what that number represented.

Number 6, isn't that the magician of Great Xia?

"Damn it! These rules are damn damned!"

"If you can't deal cards, then fucking make me deal them! You idiot..."

Chizuru was so angry she jumped up and down.

He wanted to repeat the strategy from the first round and survive until the end.

So the rules gave him this twist?

Not only did they assign him the strongest magician, but they also set a time limit: he had to obtain his opponent's identity card within three days.

In that instant, he felt the deep malice emanating from the rules.

Just then, Chizuru's dark complexion appeared on the live stream screen.

"Is this Chizuru?" someone asked doubtfully.

"That's right, it's him, the most despicable person in Japan! The guy who stubbornly stayed until the very end in the last round."

"What a pity, he's finished this time. His opponent number 6, I remember he was a magician from the Great Xia Kingdom, right?"

"Now that you mention it, I remember now. Number 6 is indeed the Magician."

Many people thought back on it.

The magician had previously shown his number plate.

"Chizuru is finished—"

Everyone couldn't help but mourn for him; it seemed that Japan was going to be completely eliminated in this round.

"Heh heh, you dare to underestimate our Sakura Country? Just wait, we'll definitely surprise you." The shrine's leaders had gloomy eyes and sneered repeatedly.

"call--"

In the scene, Chizuru took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

A wise light shone in his eyes.
