Take the Vampire Empress with you when the game launches!

Looking around in the darkness, he wondered if his apprentice had moved to a new place? And why was it so eerie?

"Master..." Qin Yu walked over with the dragon egg.

"Is this it?" Hei Ye took the dragon egg and sensed the aura left by Luna on it.

"Master, what have you been doing in the main world lately?"

As far as Qin Yu knew, Hei Ye's whereabouts were always unpredictable, and no one knew exactly where he was.

"Helping others is bad enough, but recently the forces of the evil god have been stirring. If we don't teach them a lesson, they won't stop..."

Qin Yu nodded. The main world wasn't too affected yet, thanks to the presence of forces from the Dark Night and other worlds. But this could only provide temporary relief. The power of the evil god was boundless, and it was only a matter of time before this delicate balance was broken...

"You know about the nomination of the Four Sword Saints, right?"

"Senior Huaying told me this before."

"That guy? Okay, I'll come pick you up then. I'm off now..."

"Okay, goodbye, Master."

The darkness soon departed again, and Qin Yu was completely at ease with the dragon egg in his hands. After all, even a level 10 god was no match for the darkness's sword.

On an unnamed island

He defied and subdued the merman guards, then sought their help.

"Shall we take you to land?"

The fishman guards were a bit confused. Was this all? Was it really worth making such a fuss? They weren't bad people.

"That's right. If you agree, I'll release you; otherwise, I'll have to..."

If these sea creatures do not agree, the rebel will kill them directly. After all, they have already offended the sea creatures, so one more or one less won't make a difference. Killing them will prevent the news from reaching the sea creatures.

"We agree, of course we agree. This little thing is no problem for us..."

The captain of the merman guards spoke up, and Ni Ni nodded, helping them loosen the ropes. However, she did not lower her guard; to her, no unfamiliar being was trustworthy.

Defiant led them to the cave, and with the weakened Erifil in tow, they made a simple raft and prepared to set off.

These merman guards didn't have any ulterior motives along the way. Even when they deliberately exposed weaknesses, they didn't take the opportunity to attack. They seemed to be genuinely kind and helpful people.

About three days later, the fish finally reached the shore, and the fishmen waved goodbye to them.

Goodbye! Come visit our deep-sea adventure sometime!

The captain of the merman guards waved his hand and said, while his group of mermen didn't know why their captain was so enthusiastic.

"Boss, do you know those two humans?"

"I don't recognize them..." the merman captain immediately denied, "But if I'm not mistaken, these two are definitely from the Alchemy Alliance, and their identities are definitely not simple..."

The merman captain had seen the humans of the Alchemy League before and remembered their symbol: a golden potion badge.

If things go against them, the deep sea will likely be attacked by the Alchemy Alliance and become unsettled, which is something the merman captain doesn't want to see.

Defiant led Erifil on a journey, searching along the way for usable herbs to alleviate Erifil's condition.

Ariel was now only muttering to herself, and could be described as extremely weak. If she hadn't had unfinished business, she wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

In the Ideal Land

Nanaf woke up from her coma, and the unfamiliar surroundings frightened her. How did she get here?

At the same time, she also discovered that she was tied up and unable to move. Who tied her up here?

One question after another popped up, and Nanaf felt that this person was inextricably linked to the person who destroyed her home.

Ta-da...

Footsteps came from afar, and there was more than one person's voice. Nana looked over and recognized the first person walking around the corner.

"Morika?"

Upon seeing the familiar forest elf, Nanaf's expression turned grim; she probably knew what had happened.

Hikari and Nanaf, who had returned earlier, had talked about Morika challenging herself.

Therefore, the only person who could be blamed for destroying their homes and arresting Morika is Morika herself, who is the most suspicious person.

"Oh, my little follower's awake!"

Morika and her pack of forest elves were watching Nanaf, who was unable to move, with amusement.

"Let me go! You bunch of bastards!"

Nanaf shouted, trying to make her voice carry, but in fact, the soundproofing here was excellent, and there was no one outside at all.

“Little one…” Morika grabbed Nanaf, who felt immense pressure and discomfort. “You have no idea, your friend has already angered me, and you still dare to come here…”

Morika's feelings about her last time with Shika

Lily was still resentful about her crushing defeat in the competition and couldn't swallow her anger.

Destroying Hikari's former residence was her first act of revenge; she originally planned to carry out a second one when she saw Hikari again.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Nanaf, who had returned alone. It was truly a stroke of luck for her.

"Hmph, Hikari is just better than you, nyah nyah nyah~ Eternal second place~ Eternal second place~"

Nanafu launched into a barrage of taunts, completely unconcerned that she was being held in Morika's grasp.

Upon hearing this, Morika increased her strength, and Nanaf's voice grew even fainter, "Little one, it seems you're courting death..."

Nanaf struggled, but Morika's grip tightened, as if she wanted to crush Nanaf.

"Humph……"

Morika released Nanaf, threw her to the ground, and left with her followers, leaving behind the words, "Soon, your friends will come to rescue you..."

Chapter 173 The Ticket to the Blackfire Kingdom

"Why are you here again?"

The world observer, now transformed into a sword, couldn't help but complain upon seeing the approaching darkness.

Hei Ye held a dragon egg and placed it next to the sword.

"I would like to ask you to help me hatch it."

Hei Ye agreed to help Qin Yu, even though he knew nothing about hatching dragon eggs. But this guy in front of him knew everything, so it was the most suitable to entrust the task to him.

The world observer remained silent for a long while.

"Well, this dragon egg is quite valuable."

Night thanked him and prepared to leave, but the World Observer called him back.

"In the darkness, the evil gods have already made you their ultimate target..."

The night, having paused its advance, simply uttered, "I hope they won't disappoint me..."

The night vanished, and the world observer sighed. Some people are destined to be legends, and the Night was one of them. When he gave up everything, it wasn't because he was tired, but because he had nothing left to pursue. His existence then became a means to fulfill others, and in that instance, the Night fulfilled the wishes of his apprentice...

The winners from each continent have been determined.

Qin Yu, the guild leader of Xueyu Guild, is located in the central continent.

Michael, the guild master of the Right Hand of God, is located on the eastern continent.

Blood, the guild leader of the DARK guild, is located in the southern continent.

Wuji, the guild leader of the Hunyuan Guild in the Western Continent

Bone, the guild leader of the Skull Guild, is located in the northern continent.

Xueyu and Hunyuan are guilds from China, while Shenzhiyou Shou, DARK, and Skull are guilds from the United States.

Ultimately, it's a battle between two powers: China and the United States. Other countries can't get involved.

In terms of numbers, China is one person behind, but even without Qin Yu in the previous life, Hua Tianqing of China still won the final victory.

Five players compete, with the order determined by drawing lots: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. The last two players, 4 and 5, play an elimination tournament, followed by the winners of 1 vs. 3, 2 vs. 4, and 5.

Qin Yu drew the number 1, so he will have to fight Wuji, who drew number 3. It will be an internal battle right from the start. Similarly, the Lighthouse Kingdom Guild will also have an internal battle. It is probably to ensure that there are two people from different countries in the finals, so as to maximize the hype.

"It was actually this guy..."

Qin Yu had a very bad impression of the Hunyuan Guild and its leader. In his previous life, the Hunyuan Guild was a traitor who betrayed humanity and sided with the evil god. Hua Tianqing died at the hands of Wuji.

Despite his refined and gentle appearance, Wuji is actually quite ambitious. No one expected him to betray humanity and join the forces of the evil gods.

"Young friend Qin Yu..."

The refined and cultured Wuji walked over and greeted Qin Yu.

"I never expected that we, China, would have to fight our own people in the first round..." Wuji's tone carried a hint of regret. "It's just a pity that Qi Er lost to Blood by a single move, otherwise we, China, would have had three players, and our chances of winning would have been much better..."

Qi Er was the guild leader of the Di Sha Guild in the southern continent of China. He was very strong, but unfortunately he lost to Blood of the DARK Guild. Blood used his vampire skills to wear Qi Er down to death.

"Since Elder Hua Tianqing values ​​young friend Qin Yu so highly, I have no choice but to concede..."

Does Wuji mean he's going to abstain?

"You're forfeiting?" Qin Yu was puzzled. In his previous life, this guy had fought Hua Tianqing for several rounds before admitting defeat. Why wasn't he even going to fight now? He still wanted to beat this guy up.

"Yes, this is also for the honor of our China. Only if you, young friend Qin Yu, go is the safest option..."

Wuji spoke very eloquently, portraying himself as someone who willingly made concessions for the honor of China. If Qin Yu hadn't known his true nature, he would have been fooled by him too.

"Don't let us down..." Wuji patted Qin Yu on the shoulder and then left. Qin Yu looked at the guy's back and wanted to stab him in the back, but now he was a good person, nominally so, and Qin Yu couldn't cause trouble for no reason.

Wuji's abstention did not surprise the others. After all, Qin Yu's strength was overwhelming among all the players, so his abstention was understandable, especially since they were from the same country.

However, the United States seems determined to have a good fight: Michael Blood will fight, and whoever wins will fight Bone.

Based on the events of the previous life, Michael would defeat...
