Wodema's wrist was caught by Kaitou Kid.

He didn't want to expose his identity outright, so how could he break free in that moment?

In just a few seconds, Wodema watched helplessly as every scrap of clothing on his body vanished without a trace.

The surrounding players' eyes all went wide in an instant.

"Here it comes, confirmed—this foreign furball is going streaking!"

"My god, I never thought I'd see someone running naked in a game in my lifetime. Truly, there's nothing too strange under heaven!"

"Get used to it, get used to it—foreign furballs love this kind of thing!"

"This foreign furball is damn pale, looks like a plucked chicken!"

"Immortal Path is awesome, I'll shout it out—they didn't even blur this foreign furball out, amazing!"

"Haha, I'm dying laughing. I thought we were waiting for a foreign player invasion, but instead we got a streaking clown!"

Scornful laughter erupted instantly, rising and falling, shooting straight to the sky.

And by then, Kaitou Kid had already let go of Wodema.

He waved at him, then turned and walked away.

"Sayonara, my American friend!"

Wodema was completely dumbfounded.

Even now, he still couldn't figure out where his clothes had gone.

There was no fluctuation of Divine Power around him, so clearly no deity was pulling the strings.

As for whether these mortals were the ones behind it, Wodema never even considered it.

Even if that Kaitou Kid just now looked extremely suspicious.

But Wodema didn't believe that an ordinary mortal could make his clothes disappear.

This Is Not Scientific!

"Run already, American friend!"

"Yeah, if you're naked and not running, what's the point?"

"Pervert girls, close your eyes—it's an eyesore. Hey, don't look, I'm talking to you, This Monk Zhao Dui Tian. Everyone else is covering their eyes, why are you covering your ears?"

"Wait, I suddenly feel like there's a scheme. Could this foreign furball be deliberately drawing our attention so their main force can bypass us?"

"Feigning action in one direction while sneaking in another? When did foreign furballs get this smart?"

The players' jeers were unrestrained, and plenty of them were already doubled over laughing.

But some rational types started to suspect Wodema had ulterior motives.

Hearing the mockery around him, Wodema finally snapped out of it with a jolt.

"Damn it!"

"I, a dignified One-star Demigod, have suffered such humiliation!"

Shameful—utterly shameful!

As a great deity, he, Wodema, was standing naked before this ignorant crowd of mortals?

If this could be endured, what couldn't?

Wodema's fury blazed to the sky.

The next moment, his form flickered, and he shot off like a rabbit.

You two-legged sheep, just wait!

I, the great Wodema, will return!

Seeing the Foreign Friend really start sprinting, the players' laughter grew even louder.

Some even waved at Wodema.

"Goodbye, American friend!"

The faint sound reached Wodema's ears.

Mid-sprint, he stumbled, nearly face-planting.

"Good bye?"

"Oh, you ignorant two-legged sheep, you dare call me a dog?"

Wodema was both furious and humiliated.

What's wrong with being pale?

I, Wodema, just happen to have vampire blood—naturally paler than humans!

How does that make me a dog?

But no matter how mortified he was, he had no intention of attacking the players right now.

No way—running around bare-assed is just too shameful!

Even a deity has to save face!

"Just you wait. Once I find some clothes, I'll tear every last one of you apart!"

Waldma gritted his teeth inwardly, quickened his pace, and bolted out without a second thought.

Lingxiao Immortal Palace.

A flicker of utter bewilderment crossed Lonely's face.

"What did you say?"

"A foreign player is running around naked?"

"And causing a huge commotion?"

Staring at a private message from another player, Lonely was completely dumbfounded!

As a gaming pro, he'd played countless realm-vs-realm games.

He'd personally taken part in or commanded no small number of realm wars.

But he'd never once heard of someone running naked in a realm war!

In a realm war, both sides usually pulled out all the stops, using every trick in the book.

Lonely had heard of and seen spies sent, moles planted, honey traps used, and even whales throwing money around!

But he'd never heard of anyone running naked!

"Could this be some new tactic the foreigners cooked up?"

Lonely rubbed his chin, pondering.

This sudden twist had even thrown him, a top-tier commander, for a loop.

After a moment's thought, Lonely sent a private message to Can't-Eat Peaches.

"Peaches!"

"Go scout around Camp A!"

"See if there's a foreign player running naked!"

"If you can, stall him—ideally, get the foreigner's deployment out of him!"

Can't-Eat Peaches had shone brilliantly in the last story event.

That had made him highly famous among players.

So Lonely thought of him first.

Since Peaches could even stall an NPC like Ma Baoguo, then stalling a foreign player shouldn't be a problem either.

"Roger!"

Peaches replied and eagerly headed toward Camp A.

Camp A was the very camp where Waldma had just appeared.

This place was originally wasteland; players called it Camp A for convenience.

While Can't-Eat Peaches was on his way to Camp A, on the other side of Lingxiao Immortal Palace, another figure also headed toward Camp A.

This was a female player, about 1.7 meters tall, with an extremely fiery figure.

She had a full-on mature, domineering vibe!

Her ID was Peaches Can Be Eaten!

Right now, Peaches Can Be Eaten was still wearing the cloth robe the system gave her at birth.

She had clearly just entered the game not long ago!

"You bastard, Peaches, sneaking off to play games behind my back!"

"Good thing I got a test invite for Immortal Path too!"

"Hmph, if I don't give you a few lashes this time, I'm not Peach Wife!"

Peach Wife muttered to herself as she stumbled along, one step high, one step low.

Waldma, fleeing blindly, plunged into the small forest between Camp A and Lingxiao Immortal Palace.

At the same time, Peaches, eager to score points with his stalling trick again, cheerfully slipped into the small forest.

"These foreign freaks really know how to have fun—running naked in the game, how thrilling!"

Peaches mumbled, a lecherous grin spreading across his face.

As his mind wandered, he suddenly felt like something had flashed before his eyes.

"What's that? Something really white..."

Taozi squinted, peering ahead.

The next moment, he was stunned.

Facing him was a stark-naked body, sprinting straight his way.

"Huh? A human?"

Wodema, who had been searching everywhere for clothes, also spotted Taozi.

He stopped dead in his tracks!

A vicious look flashed across his face.

Damn it!

This human had seen the great Wodema's Divine Body!

He had to die!
