Anxiety

In the ancient, vast Forest.

The procession of the Dead had been traveling for a day and a night.

In this process, it was basically one Earth Dragon carrying two the Dead.

One person drives the Earth Dragon, while another rests on the back of the other, taking turns to travel.

Compared to adventurers, assassins, and knights, mages actually face greater pressure because they need to constantly cast Acceleration Magic, Presence Concealment, and other escape-facilitating magic.

The magic in this world is not easy to cast; it takes a great toll on one's mental energy.

Even if the mages in the Dead party were all elite Human Race, they were already overwhelmed.

Yuyu's Flame Bird is too big, making it too conspicuous when it moves.

They had already put them away, and the three of them rode on the back of an adult Earth Dragon to continue their journey.

Two and a half days after the First Team entered the Game, at midnight, when the Human Emperor Magic Array had only Heavenly Timing left before it expired.

As the Dead party approached the "Land of Fallen Gods," the Undead Race and Demon Race were temporarily left behind, and the Dead Squad finally found a secluded place to rest and catch their breath.

Of the initial 986 the Dead, only 213 survived after breaking through the encirclement.

More than 60 people were divided into four teams to search for reinforcements from the Elf Race, Dragon Race, Goblin Race, and other races, thus separating themselves from the main force.

Of the remaining the Dead, only 99 remained after a day and a night of fighting against the Undead Demons!

This also includes non-combatants and many wounded!

Of the initial 64 teams, only 7 teams could barely be formed to match the original number of members.

Of the people who led the team that worked with Yimo to compile the data, the Assassin Alliance "Dark Night," the Third Knight Order Commander "Alvin," the Merchant Alliance Manager "Jin," and the Pastor Association President "Mu Bai" are all no longer with us.

"Jin," being a non-combatant, was initially positioned in the middle of the Dead formation, but unfortunately was struck and killed by Necromancy from a distance.

"Mu Bai" died suddenly due to exhaustion of his mental energy under the massive Necromancy of the Undead Bone Dragon King.

At this moment, under a large tree, "Mountain," the president of the Adventurer Mercenary Association, and "Vanessa," the Mage Association, gathered around Yimo, exchanging information about the team's situation and their upcoming journey to the "Land of Fallen Gods."

Vanessa was pale and had heavy dark circles under her eyes. "The remaining personnel have been reorganized into 12 teams based on their abilities, with each team consisting of 7 to 12 people."

"This is the list."

Yimo took the list, glanced at it, and nodded. "Let's leave it at that for now."

Although there are new formations on the list, the original formation is still indicated before each person's name.

This was Yimo's request; Yimo to permanently preserve the numbers and member records of these 64 squads.

If the Human Race survives, this record and list will be handed over to each of the surviving the Dead.

Yimo: "Vanessa, why don't you go and rest for a while?"

Most of the Dead team members were replaced and rested because they were too physically and mentally exhausted.

But Vanessa was casting spells the whole time and didn't rest at all.

Vanessa smiled gently on her pale, dry face. "It's alright. After all, I have Elf Race blood, so my physical and mental strength will recover much better."

"I'll go check on the team members and treat any injuries that need treatment."

After Vanessa finished speaking, she went to check on the other team members.

Seeing this, Shan shook his head. "That girl... well, she can't really be called a girl."

"After all, she looked like this when I was little."

"After all these years, his appearance hasn't changed much."

"She's known for her strong will; among all the associations, the Magic Association is definitely the best managed."

"This is a map drawn up by the Merchant Alliance."

"The location of the Land of Fallen Gods is quite special. There must be some kind of large-scale magic surrounding it. Even if you've been there before, it's easy to get lost again."

"Those scholars from the Merchant Alliance are indeed remarkable; they actually figured out the pattern based on ancient scripts and magical runes."

"We still have about 6 hours to go, and we should arrive at our destination by tomorrow morning."

As Shan spoke, he unfolded a parchment map in front of Yimo, on which the route and itinerary were already marked.

After reading Yimo nodded. "Yes, can you manage the time well and arrive on time, close to 10 o'clock?"

Shan: "Is the time that the Great Sage estimated the Human Emperor Magic Array could last so close?"

"But that's all we can do."

"It's not safe to rest in just one place. Let's find a place to rest twice more before dawn!"

Everyone would want to get to the Land of Fallen Gods as soon as possible to confirm whether the God Race actually exist and whether they can obtain the power to save Human Race.

However, Yimo and Shi Xinglan had discussed it before, and based on their judgment, the earliest the Side Quest could be started was after the Human Emperor Barrier shattered and the four teams in the Game officially began their battle.

Staying in one place is definitely not safe.

Therefore, Yimo's plan is to enter and hide to adjust when he gets close to the Land of Fallen Gods.

Time it right and complete the God Race Side Quest in one go!

Yimo explained to the mountain that their Hero would receive more prophetic information and know the time limit for entering the Land of Fallen Gods.

In this world, there are indeed some Magic Circle that are related to time, so Shan and Vanessa understood this perfectly.

As they were finishing their tactical discussion, Yimo glanced at Shan's bare back, at the horrifying wounds inflicted by the Demons, and asked with concern, "Brother Shan, your injuries..."

Shan chuckled and shook his head, "The moment you become an adventurer, your head is already on your toes."

"Fatality, it won't kill you, so it's fine."

"Alright, Master Kong, you should also take a rest. I won't disturb you any longer!"

With the mountain gone, only white remained around Yimo.

While Yimo was busy with various things, Bai was actually always by Yimo side.

It doesn't speak or do anything; it just sits quietly.

Yimo subconsciously looked towards Bai.

Bai was still wearing the Little Fox Mask, sitting quietly beside him.

Yimo couldn't see Bai's eyes, nor could she discern the expression on her face beneath the mask, making it impossible to judge her current emotions.

However, it's not that they can't sense Bai's emotions.

If Bai is my own sister, even if she doesn't wear a mask, her expression wouldn't change, right?

Even so, because Yimo and Ji Ran grew up together, Yimo could often see through Bai's thoughts even if he didn't say anything.

Well, it probably boils down to what she likes and dislikes.

Too much information makes it impossible to see through it all.

In Yimo's eyes, Bai had a somewhat otherworldly personality, and his emotions were rarely affected by external things.

Just like Bai at this moment, no matter how thrilling the battles they experienced along the way, she has always stayed quietly by his side.

Quiet, peaceful, undisturbed by external things.

This whiteness, without her noticing, merged with that of her younger sister, Ji Ran.

Sure enough, even without seeing Bai's expression, one could sense her emotions and state of mind.

With Bai by her side, Yimo naturally felt a sense of security.

It's like working overtime until late at night after a busy day.

Knowing that no matter how late I get home, the person I care about most will be waiting for me and keeping me company brings me peace of mind.

In this Game, Yimo clearly knew that his team was at a significant disadvantage.

This disadvantage is different from the disadvantages in the previous Game.

Even when at a disadvantage, Yimo could always use her silver tongue to maneuver and find a way out.

Or they could find a stronger force, win them over, and use them to fight against their enemies.

What about this round?

The Demon Race and the Undead Race don't understand each other's languages, so they won't listen to his rambling.

Other Player can't see it, and on the other hand, even if they did, Yimo doesn't think High-Level Player are so easily fooled.

Whether it's "Heavenly Punishment" or "Asylum"

To put it bluntly, communication requires having leverage.

Even if this chip could be made up by Yimo, this game couldn't even be made up!

In terms of winning over allies, the factions in this Game are basically locked in.

The Human Race behind Yimo simply cannot defeat the Undead Race and Demon Race.

He wants to make contact with stronger forces, but it's very difficult for him to do so!

Now it's time to find the God Race Side Quest.

Since both he and Shi Xinglan could see through it, it's highly likely that the other factions could as well.

Can the remaining 99 the Dead contend with the other High-Level Player and the racial forces behind them?

The probability Yimo to be low.

The only advantage we have now is that we have the Key to the Land of Fallen Gods, and the Stone that the mountain gave us is in our hands.

Therefore, once we arrive at the "Land of Fallen Gods" tomorrow, we must act swiftly and decisively!

Open the Land of Fallen Gods as quickly as possible and seize the power of the God Race before other Player factions!

The difficulty of it is self-evident!

Yimo was naturally under a lot of pressure.

Compared to previous Game, Yimo may seem to be at a disadvantage on the surface, but in reality, he has already laid out his plans and is waiting to reap the rewards.

In this game Yimo really had no other way to break the deadlock. He could only carry the Human Race's belief in and desire for survival, and take it one step at a time.

Under this pressure, Yimo saw the quiet Bai beside her and suddenly relaxed.

Yimo: "Bai, you say it."

Will we lose this Game?

What Yimo really wanted to say was, "Little sister, do you think we'll lose this Game?"

However, the two have, in name and in terms of household registration, severed their sibling relationship.

At this moment, Bai did not acknowledge that he was Ji Ran, nor did he acknowledge himself as his older brother. Yimo could only call him "Bai," the nickname he had given himself.

As Yimo spoke, under the moonlight, the pretty Little Fox Mask gently shook its head in Yimo's direction.

The next moment.

Bai actually reached out his hand and gently stroked Yimo's messy hair, which she had ignored.

The movements were very light and careful.

It was as if they were caressing their irreplaceable treasure.

Bai's actions startled Yimo.

Yimo is not young anymore; she's already 20 years old.

If another girl touched her head like that, Yimo would definitely dodge away.

But faced with Bai's clumsy yet gentle caresses, Yimo felt embarrassed but couldn't escape at all.

This was my sister's gentle comfort to me!

As Bai stroked her, all of Yimo's unease was gradually and completely soothed, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Ah... why think so much?

Although I often complain that I'm Sister Complex " (Unlucky Salted Fish with bad luck) and a "siscon," I'm a total Sister Complex.

But he knew that while he was complaining about Unlucky Salted Fish, he was also complaining about himself.

From the moment Yimo met Bai as a child, she was forever bound to the word "Sister Complex"!

Thank you, Bai.

There is nothing left to fear.

We absolutely must win this Game!

For yourself, and for you, who is more important than yourself!
