Chapter 137

She submitted.

The Flame Goddess naturally did not wish to die; among the Divine-Mystic-tier powerhouses, she was among the youngest.

"Four-five-seven"

And yet.

With the Lord of Flame just dead, isn't the Flame Plane now her domain?

After millennia of struggle for sovereignty over the Flame Plane, it was right before her eyes—how could she die now?

Moreover, a hundred years meant nothing to her—just a blink.

Of course.

After all this talk, she was merely giving herself an excuse.

With humiliation staining her face, she reluctantly extended her pale finger.

The next instant.

A scorching energy drifted slowly forth.

"Dingdong~ 【Flame Goddess】 wishes to sign a contract with you. She will serve you for one hundred years, but the contract forbids you from any LSP behavior toward her. Do you agree?"

"…"

"Agree!"

Qin Feng naturally agreed.

LSP behavior?

Hmph.

What did they take him for?

Cough cough.

He admitted—he'd only thought of it for a moment.

As the Flame Goddess surrendered part of her soul, a thunderous world announcement erupted.

"Dingdong~ World Announcement: The large-scale world event 【Flame? Apocalypse?】 has ended. System is settling accounts. Thank you all for your contributions to War Continent!"

"Dingdong~ World Announcement: After settlement, all players may spend points to redeem rewards via the 【Fire Element Merchant】 in their territories!"

"Dingdong~ World Announcement: All players will be forcibly teleported out of the event map. Please inventory your items. Countdown: 4min59s!"

"…"

With the thunderous world announcement fading, all Gao San students were stunned.

What just happened?

They had already been killed beyond revival in the prior explosion; before they could even think, a terrifying number appeared above their heads.

"Oh my god!! The entire beginner map's Ash Level has stacked to Level 100—what the hell are we supposed to do now?!"

"Damn!! I die the moment I respawn—I can't even last two seconds!"

"Even the troops are dead, but now buildings take damage too?! How the hell are we supposed to play?!"

"What the hell, Universe Will, are you insane? Was this event designed just to torment us?!"

"Hah, exactly! First came a broken OP tyrant, then a random massive explosion, and now everyone has zero points—what's the point of the event shop?!"

"…"

The students naturally erupted in refined, polite outrage.

Truth be told, their journey through this large-scale event… was abysmal.

Utterly devoid of any gaming experience.

First they encountered the OP Qin Feng, who stole all their rewards, then were inexplicably wiped out by an unknown AOE.

Dying meant zero points—fine, that was bad enough…

The entire beginner map was now a sea of Wangyang Flame, and troops died instantly.

But.

Some students secretly rejoiced, feeling this outcome was quite favorable.

A Level 100 Ash buff…

The HP loss per second had reached terrifying levels.

No matter if you were a genius or a trash, you were instantly killed.

In other words, every student had been reset to the exact same starting line!

…

At this moment, Qin Feng regarded the still humiliated Flame Goddess with satisfaction.

With part of her soul under Qin Feng's control, even if she wished to fight to the death, she dared not risk it.

If Qin Feng crushed her soul, she might not die—but her power would plummet at least to Shi Shi-tier.

For a powerhouse who had dwelled in Divine-Mystic-tier for over a thousand years, that was far worse than death.

And at this moment…

The Flame Goddess did not hesitate—she reached out her hand.

"Where is the Divine Fragment dropped by the Lord of Flame? As ruler of Fire Elements, with his Divine Fragment, I can better command the Fire Element Clan!"

"…"

Qin Feng rolled his eyes.

Then.

He casually tossed a thousand of them over.

"!!!"

The Blazing Goddess's eyes also widened in an instant.

A full thousand divine essence fragments?!

Real or fake?!

She too was quick-handed and swift-eyed, hurriedly catching them.

With these divine essence fragments, she could master the fire elemental clan in minutes!

And at this point, she already counted as one of Qin Feng's units.

In an instant, she enjoyed several of Qin Feng's auras.

Given her degree of control over fire-type power, she could naturally sense...

Her fire resistance had actually exceeded 100%?!

This was simply too inconceivable!!

One had to know that whether it was her or the Lord of Flame, they were both beings born from the hottest of flames.....

Their fire resistance was already maxed out, but it was only around 99%.

Going any higher would be limited by the world's rules — it was absolutely impossible!!

Thinking of this, a trace of wariness also flashed through her bright eyes as she looked at Qin Feng.

This man...

What on earth was going on?!

At this moment, Qin Feng also smiled slightly and casually tossed a thousand large fire-type divine power crystals to the Blazing Goddess.

Looking at the fiery-red, crystal-clear crystals in her jade-like hands, the Blazing Goddess was once again shocked.

Divine power was something very hard to accumulate; ordinary gods relied on their believers' day-and-night prayers to obtain divine power.

But for elemental gods like the Blazing Goddess, as long as anyone in the universe used fire-type magic, her divine power would automatically grow.

However.

Even for her, a thousand units of divine power would still take several years to accumulate!!

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, but the Blazing Goddess's body was still very honest.

Her fair jade-like hand swept out in an instant, snatching away the countless divine power crystals in a flash.

What a joke.

With this thousand units of divine power, the injuries she had sustained this time could be completely healed!

After obtaining the divine power, the Blazing Goddess's mood also greatly improved, and after getting Qin Feng's consent, she also scampered off happily.

As long as Qin Feng summoned her, she would appear in his territory in minutes.

And at this moment, Qin Feng also let out a long breath.
