Take the Vampire Empress with you when the game launches!

Someone knocked on the door, and Luna quietly went to open it.

At the entrance, the Nightmare Queen and the Nightmare Twins stood there. When they saw Luna there, their faces showed a hint of awe, as they had witnessed Luna's strength before.

"We were just talking about you guys, and here you are..." Luna flew back to Qin Yu's side.

The three Nightmares entered the room. They had come specifically to thank Qin Yu. If he hadn't agreed, the Nightmares might have actually died fighting for the evil god's forces, which was the last thing they wanted to see.

"Thank you, Lord Qin Yu. If it weren't for your mercy, we might have died by your sword like those fallen ones..."

The Nightmare Queen showed no airs of royalty in front of Qin Yu, after all, Qin Yu had already let them go once.

"It's nothing. I made this decision based on your performance. If any of you Nightmares had killed a human, I might have wiped you all out. You should thank yourselves..."

Cooperation depends on the sincerity of both parties. Since Nightmare is so sincere, why doesn't Qin Yu agree to their proposal?

"If Lord Qin Yu doesn't mind, I would like these two children to stay by your side and serve you."

The Nightmare Queen wanted to hand over the Nightmare Twins to Qin Yu as maids, hoping to gain his favor further.

"This..." Qin Yu pondered whether it was worth it.

"Fine! Give them to me!"

Qin Yu hadn't even decided whether to agree or not when Luna agreed first, which almost made Qin Yu furious.

Why did I give it to her? It was clearly meant for myself.

The Nightmare Twins bowed respectfully to Qin Yu and Luna, and then left after the Nightmare Queen's visit was over.

"Lady Luna, Lord Qin Yu, please let us know if you need anything!"

The Nightmare Twins seemed very happy about being able to stay and work as maids.

"Hurry up and make something delicious, I'm starving!"

Luna immediately started bossing them around, acting more like the master than Qin Yu did. Qin Yu even tapped Luna on the head.

"You've essentially stolen my maid."

"What does it matter? What's yours is mine!"

"No, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine..."

Forced to act unreasonably, Qin Yu and Luna engaged in a long-awaited battle...

In the main world

On the shore of the island where the Goblin Merchant Guild headquarters was located, a group of unconscious sea creatures swam over. The island's core system issued a notification, and the goblins all gathered around to check on them...

Chapter 321 The Threat of the Deep Sea

On the island where the Goblin Merchant Guild headquarters was located, one unconscious sea goblin after another drifted over. They didn't dare to go forward to check on the situation yet, as they were all waiting for their leaders to arrive.

Before long, several leaders arrived at the scene, and the Black Gold leader felt uneasy upon seeing the situation.

He went forward to check the situation himself and found that the sea creatures were still alive and had not died.

But why are so many sea creatures stranded here...?

"Boss, I suddenly have a bad feeling..."

The leaders all shared the same feeling: something bad might be about to happen.

"Should we prepare for war first?"

"I feel we need to develop new types of weapons."

"They're all equipped..."

"Are you crazy? That weapon is still in the testing phase!"

……

The goblins tensed up immediately. Their previous battle with the demon legion had instilled in them a fear of insufficient weaponry, and they were now frantically researching all sorts of powerful weapons.

It just takes a very long time, and only one prototype of an energy weapon is available for testing.

Just as the gnomes were discussing what to do, a sea creature finally awoke from his coma.

Black Gold immediately ordered the goblin to help the murloc up and inquire about the situation.

"Fishmen, what happened to you? What happened? Why did you drift here?"

Having just woken up, it looked around at the goblins with a blank expression, when suddenly it realized what was happening.

"Our deep-sea nation was attacked by an unknown liquid, and we had no choice but to flee from there..."

The fish-man shuddered as he recalled the black liquid he had seen in the deep-sea kingdom, as if that substance could awaken his deepest fears.

"The Deep Sea Kingdom has been attacked again..."

Black Gold was a bit dumbfounded. The demon legion had just disappeared, and the deep-sea kingdom was attacked again. It really didn't give them a moment to catch their breath.

"And what is this unidentified liquid?"

"It's... a black liquid... It has polluted the entire deep-sea kingdom... And even our king can't stop it... Cough cough!!"

As he was talking, the fishman suddenly collapsed to the ground and coughed. A glob of black liquid came out of his mouth and flowed directly into the sea without reacting with the island.

At the same time, the other unconscious sea creatures also began to cough, and black liquid flowed out continuously, surging into the sea.

"Save...save...us..."

The merman cried out in agony, feeling its consciousness fading, its skin beginning to decay, and its eyes glowing an eerie red.

"Retreat! Activate the highest level of emergency!"

Black Gold and the goblins immediately retreated from this place and ran towards the island's defensive line. The unconscious sea creatures stood up one by one, their bodies decaying and their eyes emitting an eerie red light. Like walking corpses, they pounced on the goblins.

"Quickly spread the news to the goblin merchant guilds on other continents!"

This is no small matter; the Deep Sea Kingdom has likely fallen, and other powers must be alerted.

"Boss, something's wrong! Our messages have been blocked!"

The goblin in charge of communications shouted that their communication equipment was being blocked and messages couldn't be sent out at all.

"Then send an airship. We must bring this news to the outside world, or we'll be in big trouble!"

Black Gold was well aware of the seriousness of the situation. Judging from the recent discovery, these black waters could spread rapidly in the sea and control the sea creatures, posing a tremendous threat.

"Activate the core and try to control those sea creatures."

The operators activated the sea creature control program, but the sea creatures simply wouldn't obey the commands.

"Boss, there's no response."

"..."

The corrupted sea creatures began to sabotage the island's facilities, while the black waters in the sea continued to spread in the surrounding waters.

"Boss! Something terrible has happened!"

The goblin operator shouted when he saw the condition of the equipment.

Black Gold rushed over to check on the situation.

"Energy conversion efficiency is declining rapidly; that black water seems to be inhibiting our ability to extract energy from the seawater..."

"Damn it, how long will our energy reserves last?"

"If used sparingly, it can last for a year, but if war breaks out, it can only last for three days..."

"..."

The situation is getting worse and worse. Many corrupt sea creatures on the island are attacking the goblin settlement, and the sea is being polluted by black water.

The only saving grace was that the airship that went to deliver the message successfully escaped the island; hopefully, they were safe and sound.

"If we activate the island's flight mode, can we reach the mainland for refuge?" Black Gold asked.

After a series of calculations, the operator replied: "Flight mode is extremely power-consuming. We can only fly at full power for one day, but that's enough to reach the nearest land area."

"Alright, let's get started. Staying at sea will only lead to our demise."

"Yes!"

Following Black Gold's orders, the island's power system was fully activated, lifting it off the sea surface. However, the sea creatures on the island had not yet been dealt with, and the goblins' attacks had failed to inflict any effective damage on them.

Only attacks with extremely high firepower and energy weapons can harm these strange sea creatures; the former are feared to disrupt the island's balance, and the latter are currently lacking energy.

We can only delay them until they reach land before launching a full-scale counterattack.

In the Blue Star world

The last ray of sunlight was swallowed up, and now the world has entered its darkest hour.

"Hahaha...hahahaha..."

The laughter of the evil gods echoed throughout the Blue Star world, and these guys who had been hiding in the shadows were finally able to reveal their true forms.

The overwhelming army of evil gods was incredibly oppressive, far stronger than the previous minions of evil gods and the demon army.

They surrounded the human-inhabited city in mid-air, without rushing to attack.

For them, the real goal is to disintegrate humanity and make them kill each other; taking the initiative is the least they can do.

High-level methods.

"They're here..."

Qin Yu walked out of the room and went to the top floor. Looking at the completely dark world above, only their city was able to emit light to illuminate the surroundings.

"Humans in the city, as the last of your civilization, you now monopolize all the world's resources. Compared to before, each of you can enjoy a better life. Isn't this what you've been striving for all this time?"

……

The evil gods began to use verbal attacks to undermine the minds of the people in the city.

“We, the evil gods, do not wish to fight you, nor is fighting necessarily necessary. If you are willing to make peace with us in exchange for the lives of those vanished humans, we, the evil gods, are also willing to end our war with you…”
