[Kindergarten Boss] swallowed hard.
His breathing grew ragged, and fine beads of cold sweat covered his normally honest, good-natured face.
This string of sudden, bizarre developments, from their teammate's abrupt betrayal and his body bursting into a swarm of insects to this eerie divine statue that seemed even more wrong...
Everything had happened too fast, too suddenly!
With the total immersion of 100% holographic simulation.
The sheer visual revulsion and deep psychological pressure left these elite players experiencing a powerful sense of disorientation in that instant.
They had almost forgotten this was a virtual online game where they could respawn at any time!
The panic and helplessness rising from deep within them gripped their hearts like an invisible, ice-cold hand.
No one screamed, nor did anyone roar about charging in to farm coins as they would against an ordinary monster.
Inside the church, nothing could be heard but the rustling of insects and stifled coughing.
This was an instinctive fear of something beyond description!
Everyone stood frozen, at a loss.
Just as this suffocating atmosphere of terror threatened to crush everyone's mental defenses.
"Ashen Missile!"
A low shout steeped in murderous intent thundered through the deathly silent church like a bolt from the blue!
[Ji Luo]!
The leader of the server's top guild had somehow already crossed half the hall alone.
His tall, straight figure stood firmly before the enormous divine statue shedding white dust!
In his right palm, a gray missile compressed to its utmost limit flickered wildly in the dim, chilly church, threaded with a dazzling, searing orange-red flame!
At that moment, the enormous, eerie divine statue stood before him with its wings spread!
The gloomy, gray church surrounded him.
[Ji Luo] stood at the statue's feet, his back looking somewhat slight, yet straight as a drawn sword!
