In this life, Yuan Yi wasn't captured, which is actually much better than in his previous life.
It may seem that human civilization is still in a state of chaos, but sometimes fortune and misfortune are intertwined. This chaos can also be a good disguise, at least to deceive the civilized races that are coveting the Yuan Yi behind the scenes.
If the other side were to send Intelligent Lifeform to monitor the entire world, or directly submit the data on a newly Creation-level Deity, Yuan Yi would definitely not be as carefree as he is now, wandering around every day dressed as Elysia.
Because she dared not interfere too much with the operation of the Meta World and expose her own whereabouts, she was currently the most idle person.
The current version is still the one where players battle against the Fallen Ones.
In the Southern Volcano World, players are everywhere battling corrupted monsters.
The gaming forum remained as active as ever; in fact, most people, having grown accustomed to its existence, felt uncomfortable if they didn't check it every day.
The Cleaver God of War flew on his sword, overlooking the bustling area. He had successfully changed his class to Sword Immortal in the previous underground dungeon, sharing the same name as his talent, and was now a world-renowned master.
He didn't care about the experience gained from these corrupted monsters; it was the players who had accepted the corresponding quests who were clearing out the monsters in these areas.
The rewards from killing corrupted monsters are too low; it's better to kill elite monsters or quest monsters.
Standing behind the sword, the Mop God of War of War also looked at the players fighting fiercely below and said, "If Mavis were here, one skill would have cleared out all the monsters."
"Let's just forget about it. She's so lazy that she wouldn't even go out for a New Year's dinner. In the end, we spent the New Year at her house."
Thinking of that lazy guy, Mavis, the Cleaver God of War shook his head in strong disapproval.
Mop God of War said curiously, "They are all clones of His Your Highness Su. How Kurumi is so hardworking, but Mavis is so lazy? It's so strange."
"Who knows?"
The two siblings chatted idly.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a gap opened in the underground mountain range, and countless corrupted monsters and Fallen Ones poured out from underground. In addition to these hostile monsters, there was also a large group of Fallen Ones players following behind the monsters.
Upon seeing them, both siblings frowned.
Fallen players can also be resurrected. Although they cannot earn the rewards and experience from the Adventurer's Guild quests like normal players, they still have all the functions that players should have.
These players are very difficult to deal with because neither side can die.
Players who were killing monsters normally suddenly saw a surge of monsters, and a battle between the two sides was about to break out.
Some players quickly called their friends for help.
At that moment, both of them heard the system's voice in their ears, announcing a temporary mission.
The quest "[The Calamity of the Fallen]" requires you to clear out these hordes of monsters. The more you clear, the greater the reward.
The two were instantly invigorated and descended from the sky, charging into the monster horde to fight.
However, the normal faction had too few players, and soon only a small number of powerful players remained to support them.
"Oh no! These monsters all have damage reduction buffs! Quickly, call more people!"
"Holy crap, this looks like one of the Fallen Priests, and it's in the sky!"
Messages flashed across the chat channel, and those who saw them looked up at the sky above the monster. A quick scan revealed that the opponent was indeed Fallen Priests, and a legendary Fallen Priests that. Monsters of this strength were not something ordinary players like them could handle.
"I know, it's controlled by those Fallen Ones players! They have the ability to travel underground, and they appear wherever there are many players! Many players on the forums have already cursed them!"
"Run! We can't win!"
"Damn it, don't let me find out the real location of these scoundrels, or I'll come over and twist their heads off."
The players panicked and either ran away or retreated.
The Cleaver God of War frowned upon seeing the Fallen Priests. If his guild members were here to help hold off the ordinary monsters, he and his sister could take down the priest together.
The players here are all ordinary players, and they don't have the same level of teamwork as the guild members.
The Cleaver God of War immediately had his sister transform to distract the monsters on the ground, while he shared the coordinates with the guild so that guild members could come over as soon as possible.
The rewards for these temporary tasks are no better than those for their daily tasks.
Mop God of War instantly transformed into a tornado, her powerful mental force sweeping through the monster horde without restraint. One after another, enormous monsters were lifted up by her will and then slammed to the ground. Monsters attacking her from the surrounding area were deflected by her will, knocking down wave after wave of them.
Tornado's avatar abilities are extremely powerful, and her mental abilities are all-powerful. She can not only attack single monsters individually, but also control and attack groups of monsters. Basically, she can do whatever she wants.
However, the Tornado Avatar has a drawback: it consumes mana extremely quickly. The more monsters it controls, the more mana it consumes. After clearing a large group of monsters, it is basically out of mana.
Landing on the ground, Mop God of War switched his avatar to Gwen, picked up a giant pair of scissors, and began cutting up the monsters.
When your mana is depleted, you can only use your avatar, which consumes less mana, to attack. Then you wait for your mana to recover before switching back to Tornado.
She was already very skilled at this fighting style.
Rumble!
The scene was chaotic at one point; the monster horde came too suddenly, catching the players who were killing monsters here completely off guard.
Upon seeing the chat channel, the Fallen Ones player scoffed, "We Fallen Faction have so many powerful NPCs as henchmen in the game. As long as we kill you once, we'll gain a lot of experience. Why would I be afraid of you coming after us?"
"Sigh, you're just born to be beasts of burden, hunted down and harvested for experience after leveling up~"
"Come on, I'm in Melbourne. Come on over if you dare, haha!"
Many ordinary players were shattered by the monster horde, and then had to listen to the heart-wrenching words of the Fallen Ones players. For a moment, anger filled their chests.
If it weren't for these Fallen Ones players making the Fallen Ones NPCs fight them like guerrillas, their progress in the Volcano World wouldn't have been so slow.
Every time a skilled player arrives, these Fallen Ones players will tell the NPCs to leave, truly embodying the essence of Chinese tunnel warfare—they're nothing but a bunch of pests!
Unfortunately, the opponent is in the shadows, while the normal players are in the open, so we can't beat them.
At this point, almost all the other players were dead, leaving only Cai Dao and Cai Ling, two powerful players.
The Fallen Ones players' eyes gleamed with greed upon seeing these two. They knew that Fallen Faction players from the normal faction allowed them to absorb some of their experience, so how much experience would they gain if they killed these two?
Cai Ling alone could not hold off all the monsters on the ground. While dealing with the priest, Cai Dao also had to be careful of attacks from the fallen players and monsters, and gradually found himself at a disadvantage.
Cai Dao understood that if things continued like this, they would definitely be killed as well.
Just as Cai Dao was pondering whether or not to run away, a familiar voice rang out in the distance.
The Law of the Fairies!
The intense golden light resembled the rising sun, warm and full of hope.
All the corrupted monsters melted away in the golden light, leaving only panicked Fallen Ones players and Fallen Priests screaming as the golden light burned them.
"Mavis actually came here?"
Cai Dao turned around and squinted at the figure shining in the golden light.
But the next second, Cai Dao and Cai Ling were both stunned, staring at each other with wide eyes.
"Hey, it's been a year, you guys seem to have changed a lot."
Su Xi flew over slowly, a faint smile on her face. Behind her were Mavis and Kurumi.
