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

Kawazu City, the land of cherry blossoms.

Giant spaceships, arrayed like a line, floated above the city, blotting out the sun and blocking out the last vestiges of sunlight.

It was as if darkness had descended!

On the deck of each spaceship, figures stood.

"That spaceship ahead belongs to Eternal Day; I recognize the emblem on it. The figures on it... they look like Emperor Yan, Divine Punishment, Ye Piaopiao..."

"And Dawn, Sunrise, and Blade's Edge have also arrived."

"And there are all those super strong individuals like the Grand Master and the Great Mage. We're doomed!"

"W-What should we do?"

Countless cherry blossom people looked up, gazing at the figures on the spaceship.

When they saw the people on it clearly, they turned pale with fright, and a huge fear swept over them.

"Baka! Are these Great Xia people serious? I thought they were just joking..."

The vice president of a large guild was deathly pale, and his calves were trembling.

They were used to trash-talking on world forums and thought it was all just a war of words or empty threats.

Who knows—

These people from Great Xia are actually serious!

They actually want to destroy their Sakura Empire, and even the most terrifying powerhouses like Emperor Yan, Dawn, and Master Brother have been mobilized.

In that instant, he wanted to slap himself a few times. Why couldn't he just be a coward and hide? Why did he have to provoke Great Xia again and again on the world forum?

Now, it's all over, isn't it?

In that instant, he cursed the shrine's leaders in his mind, using the most vicious words he had ever uttered.

Unfortunately, what's coming has already happened, and no amount of cursing can change the outcome.

He was trembling with fear, and even his balance was unsteady.

"No, staying here any longer will only lead to my death. I must escape. Only by escaping to Sakura City might I have a chance to survive."

Thinking of this, he hurriedly got up and fled outside.

Many others shared his thoughts and were fleeing towards Sakura City without a care in the world.

only.

Along the way, we will pass through many large zombie areas, including some fourth-tier zombie kings. Whether we can make it to Sakura City alive is anyone's guess.

Some people, despite their fear, did not leave.

because--

"I...I don't believe they'll kill us all..."

"No, that's impossible..."

These people hurriedly hid in various buildings, huddled in corners, and prayed for the mercy of the Daxia people.

At this moment, the forums in Japan are in complete chaos.

Fear and despair permeated the air, and through the forum, they had spread to other cities in Japan.

However, a large number of people remain stubborn and dismissive of this.

"What are you afraid of? They're just here to intimidate us, do you really think they'd dare to lay a hand on us?"

"Exactly! As fellow human beings, if they dared to commit massacres with impunity, the whole world would condemn them!"

Many comments expressed an indifferent attitude.

They've probably done too many verbal threats, and they think the Great Xia is the same. At most, they'll make a show of threatening, but they won't dare to actually take action.

even.

Some people even went to the world forum to rant: "Hey, you from Great Xia, if you've got the guts, then make a move! If you've got the guts, then kill all the people of Kawazu City, Sakura. If you don't make a move, you're just cowards."

"Baka!"

"Where did this idiot come from upstairs? Stop provoking the people of Great Xia, okay?"

In an instant, countless people in Kawajin City trembled with fear, terrified that they had truly angered the people of Daxia.

"Haha, fellow countrymen of Kawazu City, don't be afraid. The people of Great Xia won't dare to make a move. I'll be cheering you on from Sakura City!"

"Grass--"

Upon hearing this, everyone in Kawazu City was furious.

Good grief, so you're from Sakura City. If you're so capable, come and stay in Kawazu City and see if you still dare to say such things.

It turns out that keyboard warriors and troublemakers are common in every country.

They adopted a "not my problem" attitude, believing they could act with impunity in Sakura City. After all, Sakura City was the capital of the Sakura Kingdom, home to the largest armed forces and evolved beings; they thought they could rest easy here.

"Baka, what are you barking about, you dog? If you anger the people of Great Xia, even Sakura City will suffer."

"Heh, I'll be waiting for them in Sakura City. If they dare to come, let them try. If they dare to come, I'll make sure they don't leave alive."

"You bastard, you idiot!"

Seeing such comments constantly appearing on world forums.

The cherry blossoms in Kawazu City terrified everyone.

They felt the immense pressure that hung over the entire city most acutely; the terrifying killing intent within it seemed to be solidifying into reality.

Within the shrine.

Several people in power looked at those reckless remarks with grim faces, wishing they could find the person and exterminate their entire family.

They wanted to stall for time; the longer they dragged it out, the greater their chances of winning.

As a result, there are always troublemakers who provoke the other side, and most importantly, they can't stop them. Because if they do, people will think that the shrine has backed down and is afraid, which is extremely detrimental to the subsequent war.

"Forget it, things have come to this point where it's inevitable. Let them do whatever they want, since some people are going to die anyway."

"It's good that the Great Xia people are angry. If we can use the lives of everyone in the entire city of Chuanjin to delay the Great Xia's offensive, it will buy us more time. At the same time, their actions will also arouse the hostility of the whole world, which may not be a bad thing."

The Prime Minister's eyes flashed with a chilling light.

His words sent chills down the spines of the other leaders.

-

On the spaceship, several super-powerful individuals gathered together.

"Heh, these Japanese are really naive. Our warships have already flown here, and they actually think we won't dare to make a move?"

Blade spoke with a cold laugh.

This battle is one that countless people of Great Xia have been looking forward to for a long time. How could it be just a formality?

"I have an idea, and I wonder what everyone thinks."

At this time.

The master brother spoke with a smile, his eyes full of excitement.

"Brother Shi, just say it directly, we're listening," Lu Qi said.

All eyes turned to the master, eager to hear what brilliant plan he had in store.

"My idea is simple: I'll incite a zombie horde in Kawazu City, letting it completely engulf the city. We can then use their flesh and blood to feed the zombies, and afterwards we'll wipe them out. This way, we can also obtain a large number of high-level crystal cores. Why not?"

The master spoke slowly, his tone filled with a chilling intent.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"That's definitely an excellent method."
