Actually, Song Fei had another option.
He could teleport to another town to grind monsters. That way, Qin Feng might not be able to find him...
But Song Fei couldn't stomach this humiliation!
He had trained hard for two and a half years to achieve what he had today. How could he let someone bully him in a game?
"Ladies, let's log off first. I'll buy some lifespan in the real world, then come back and trade it for equipment!"
"Then we'll be fully geared up, our combat power will skyrocket, and we'll take him on again!"
After telling his female fans this, Song Fei logged off inside Firefly Town!
The dozens of girls flocking around him all logged off after hearing his words.
As they logged off, they felt both pain and joy.
Their joy came from actually getting so close to their idol, Song Fei.
Their pain came from getting crushed alongside their idol in the Godforsaken Game, slaughtered mercilessly by "Dark Shadow"!
"Oh my god, I'm so lucky! I actually got that close to Song Fei in the game..."
"Waaah, Song Fei looked so handsome when he used his skills~"
"Even if it's only in a game, getting to follow Song Fei is amazing!"
"Everything was so perfect at first, but then that Dark Shadow showed up, biting everyone like a rabid dog..."
"That Dark Shadow is a total psycho! He must be jealous of our idol!"
"It's okay. Apparently, we can buy lifespan with cash. Let's pool our money and buy more for him!"
Right then!
Most of Song Fei's fanatical, brainless fans still had no idea what lifespan in the Godforsaken Game meant.
After all, they had stayed with Song Fei ever since entering the game.
They hadn't heard the official confirmations about lifespan released by governments around the world!
That was precisely why they had handed all their lifespan to Song Fei without a second thought.
They hadn't even complained when they were killed repeatedly.
Only after returning to reality did they finally learn of the official announcement-the Godforsaken Game was a truly supernatural game!
Both tradable lifespan and non-tradable lifespan were real!
Once their lifespan reached zero, players would die in the real world!
The news struck every one of these girls like a bolt from the blue!
"How is that possible? Isn't this just a game?"
"Dark Shadow killed us three times, and our tradable lifespan is zero! We only have a few years of non-tradable lifespan left, too!"
"Aaah! I originally had over seventy years, and now I only have a little over a year left!"
"No way! How could dying three times cost you that much?"
"I killed a lot of other players, so I had one stack of the killer status. Every death cost me twice as much lifespan, waaah..."
"Oh my god, I only have two years left, too! This lifespan is actually real? I don't believe it!"
Many of these girls immediately regretted their actions!
They had thought this was just a game.
That was why they had given Song Fei everything in the game and helped him in every way, even sacrificing themselves to shield him from arrows...
Yet it turned out that the Godforsaken Game was real!
When their lifespan reached zero, they would die!
Even while shielding Song Fei from Demons, many of his female fans had been surrounded and killed...
Some had also killed many other players for Song Fei. After Qin Feng killed them three times in a row, they had only a year or two of non-tradable lifespan left!
"Doesn't that mean we only have a year or two left to live?"
The girls were instantly dumbfounded!
Most of them felt some regret!
Of course, quite a few were already so obsessed that they considered it worthwhile as long as they could get close to Song Fei, even if they really had only a year or two left to live...
Meanwhile.
Song Fei began buying up lifespan in bulk!
"Buy, buy, buy!"
"A day of tradable lifespan costs over ten thousand now? Buy it! I only have a little over a hundred million in assets right now..."
"Damn it, my agency took all the rest."
"Whatever, a little over a hundred million will do. I'll buy a few thousand days of tradable lifespan first and stock up on equipment and skill books. Let's see Dark Shadow try to kill me then!"
Once Song Fei logged off, Qin Feng indeed had no way to kill him in the game.
But he had no idea... returning to reality was what put him in true danger!
Qin Feng returned to Firefly Town's square and found Gu Yixue waiting for him. "Let me know if Song Fei logs on."
Gu Yixue nodded a little nervously. "Uh, okay."
She looked visibly frightened.
Ever since witnessing "Dark Shadow" slaughter Song Fei and those girls, Gu Yixue had developed a slight fear of him!
The sight of corpses strewn across the ground, red flowers blooming on their bodies, had made her scalp prickle.
"This is a gold-tier skill for the priest class. Do you want it?"
Qin Feng took out a skill book.
It contained an offensive priest skill, Sword of Holy Judgment!
Although it dealt single-target damage, its damage output was considerable. It was one of the few offensive skills available to priests.
As soon as the skill book appeared, Gu Yixue's beautiful eyes lit up. "Yes, yes, yes!"
Qin Feng said bluntly, "Five hundred days of lifespan."
The young beauty immediately choked on her words.
Rubbing her hands together, she asked a little sheepishly, "Um, boss, can I buy it on credit?"
Qin Feng thought for a moment, then said, "Agree to do one thing for me, and I'll sell you this skill book at half price."
Gu Yixue stared at him and took two steps back. "Just so we're clear, I'm not selling my body..."
Qin Feng: "..."
What was this girl thinking?
Only after Qin Feng explained did Gu Yixue realize that this terrifying powerhouse wanted her to join his friends' party...
Naturally, Qin Feng meant Wang Meng, Lin Liyu, and the others.
To get Qin Xiaoyou out of their party, Qin Feng needed to give them a powerful priest-class player.
Gu Yixue was a perfect fit.
The young beauty tilted her head and considered it before saying, "All right. But if they're too weak, I'm coming to you to complain!"
Qin Feng smiled. "They won't be. They're decent."
If Wang Meng had heard that, he might have coughed up blood.
Among ordinary players, their party was top-tier...
Yet in Qin Feng's eyes, they were merely "decent"?
After settling things with Gu Yixue, Qin Feng contacted Wang Meng.
"Wang Meng, I've got someone here with the hidden class White Bird Priest. She's pretty strong. Does your party want her?"
Qin Feng had thought Wang Meng might hesitate a little.
But to his surprise...
Wang Meng replied almost immediately!
