Chapter 787

Mi explained: "Before, I obtained it from a ruin called the 'Immortal God Temple', not far from the main base. However, the Myriad Heavens Battlefield reset its map recently, rendering all old maps invalid; even I don't know where the Immortal God Temple has been moved to."

The Myriad Heavens Battlefield refreshes its map every so often, rather than remaining unchanged.

Once a map refresh occurs, the old maps become obsolete, and much information loses its usefulness.

Xiao Feng felt a bit regretful: "Well, it seems the fate wasn't meant to be."

A seventh-tier spiritual essence, a treasure that even a God King would covet; encountering it is a tremendous opportunity!

Mi being able to encounter such a fine treasure in the ruins shows her Luck is also quite good; however, as an NPC she has inherently slow growth, and she's not that old, which is why she hasn't become an unparalleled powerhouse.

Given her time, she might yet surpass the Storm Main God!

"Master, what gains did you make this time in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield?" Mi asked him.

Mi had already flown out of the main base's Teleportation Array, clad in golden armor, soaring through the air, drawing the gazes of countless players.

The lord of the War God Kingdom personally appearing in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield inevitably sparks imagination, leading many to think some major plot trigger is at play, so they follow her on the ground, eager to see what great commotion will occur.

The result was that after following her all the way, no plot triggered; instead, they encountered a bunch of inferior monkeys!

Then the scene descended into chaos; a group of players, like tourists at some mountain, were besieged by the monkey horde, robbed clean to the point of having not even money to return home.

Mi completely failed to notice the players on the ground; she merely flew at high speed, hoping to reach a farther place to find a spot where she could hone herself.

Hearing her question, Xiao Feng smiled: "Not bad; I dug up treasure twice, gathered several materials for crafting a Main God artifact, and even obtained a finished Main God artifact."

Mi: ……

She fell silent for a moment, then softly said: "Master, your Luck is truly not bad—congratulations."

As a Main God without a personal Main God artifact, she felt her situation rather miserable!

But there's nothing to be done—who let her family be poor?

The Yuan Su Shen Yu's poorest god kingdom is no empty boast; everything that could be looted at home has been taken, leaving only ordinary wealth like divine stones and low-grade artifacts, which even she looks down upon.

Other Main Gods, when they go out, may not be covered in Main God artifacts, but at least they have a few signature pieces of equipment that they don't need to replace often.

As for her, although she always wears a full set of golden armor, which does look quite "signature",

but these golden armors have been replaced batch after batch!

The high-quality divine artifact armor mass-produced by the War God Kingdom's assembly line—she has worn out no fewer than ten sets!

What a pity there's no choice; she can only resign herself to fate!

The two communicated mind-to-mind while rushing through the air, the distance gradually closing, occasionally exchanging a few casual words.

Soon after, both encountered combat and had to engage.

In the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, a Main God is not considered a formidable opponent, especially a newly broken-through lower Main God—any monster wants to go up and poke it.

Consequently, Mi's flight journey is anything but peaceful; wild monsters of the Spirit Bird tribe and some stronger experts from other clans will launch attacks against her.

However, relying on her still-decent strength, she can handle them without too much difficulty.

As long as she doesn't encounter a veteran Main God, self-preservation remains quite easy.

Xiao Feng is even more relaxed, his journey as leisurely as a stroll in a garden, with no pressure whatsoever.

After over an hour, Xiao Feng suddenly heard Mi say to him: "Master, I've run into a tough opponent; I might be defeated. Come quickly and retrieve the Main God artifact!"

Xiao Feng: ……

How long has it been?

Is she about to die?

"What's the situation? What level of opponent did you meet?" Xiao Feng scratched his head.

This No. 3 little maid is really unreliable; just a moment ago we were chatting fine, and now she's about to die!

Mi replied: "It's a Wild Beast Tribe Main God comparable to the Frenzied Annihilation Barbarian God… no, wait—this is a Mi Jing entrance, and there are other Main Gods present!"

As she spoke, her tone grew urgent, tinged with despair.

A Mi Jing entrance?

In the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, a "Mi Jing" is a type of mappable territory that can be occupied, and its value is extremely high!

Occupying a god kingdom yields 20 civilization points, but a Mi Jing, even the smallest scale, grants 100 points!

One Mi Jing is equivalent to a "safe zone"; once fully captured, it allows one's faction's players to enter and live in ease, without fear of being bullied by outsiders.

This is a gameplay feature encountered only in the late game; generally, one needs to organize a player team on the scale of millions to capture it!

Mi somehow stumbled upon the Mi Jing entrance, as absurd as a little rabbit hopping straight into a lion's den!

"Hurry up and run! Don't lose my Main God artifact!" Xiao Feng urged urgently.

Although Mi's death would be somewhat regrettable, losing the Main God artifact would be far more unbearable for him.

If she could escape, that would be better; even sustaining some injury is stronger than dying.

If she could escape, that would be better; even sustaining some injury is stronger than dying.

Unexpectedly, at this moment Mi gave him a line: "Master, please forgive me; the War God's dignity does not allow me to flee from battle, I must……"

Xiao Feng's eyes widened, and a surge of nameless fury rose instantly; he really wanted to slap her twice.

"Are you sick in the head, not running when you can't win, do you want to die?" he shouted angrily.

Knowing full well you can't win yet insisting on fighting—this is hardly the conduct of a War God; it's pure brain-dead behavior!

"I……"

Mi is still hesitating!

Xiao Feng burst out cursing: "If you don't run, I'll use the contract authority to strip your clothes naked, letting you be humiliated across the Myriad Heavens! Run now—this is an order!"

"Master, if I retreat, I will forever be unable to advance……"

Mi stated the reason she cannot flee.

Xiao Feng felt as if his whole self were about to split apart.

He was both speechless and headache-inducing as he scolded: "So what? Is it really that embarrassing? Don't be foolish! Only the living have the qualification to uphold dignity; a true man can bend and stretch—what's wrong with fleeing once? If you don't run now and get killed, you'll lose even the chance to avenge yourself! Escaping to save your life for the moment will always leave room for future growth; when you become strong enough, you can strike back—that is the proper way!"

Spiritual thought transmission only takes an instant.

Upon receiving his reprimand, Mi's heart shuddered; she no longer lingered in battle, obeying her master's order, she brandished her war spear to drive back the enemy and turned to flee.

She actually understood the reasoning; a gentleman's revenge may come after ten years and not be too late, but only by preserving one's life does one have a chance to make a comeback.

However, while war power grants her strength, it also dictates that she cannot retreat in this lifetime; should she retreat, the power of law will stagnate and cease to grow.

If there is no way to comprehend the law, her future achievements will also stop here.

A war god is undefeated; if defeated, he is no longer a war god!

This is why the war gods of past ages would rather die than retreat even a single step!

But this time she fled, running several thousand kilometers in one breath until no overly powerful monsters remained nearby, then she landed to catch her breath.

"Hey? Are you dead? Speak!"

A voice came from the depths of her heart.

Xiao Feng's tone carried anger and resentment, mixed with a hint of concern.

Mi collapsed in a grove, leaning against a large tree, golden blood trickling from the corner of her mouth; she replied bitterly: "Sorry, master, I… am now a cripple."
