The King of Black Fog

"The situation is turning grim," one said.

"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.

Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...

Chapter 390: Conferred God

“Your company is about to go bankrupt!” Bi laughed loudly.

Aferona immediately knelt down again.

Before she could speak, Li Changzhou smiled and said, "It's not your fault, it was my wishful thinking."

He put down his water glass: "Pass the word down to all five branch presidents and five development team leaders to a meeting. I will resolve the matter."

"Yes!" Aferona immediately used her artifact to notify the ten people, and then said, "My lord, seven first-class immortals have recently appeared. Should we notify them?"

“I’m one of them!” Bi said.

"Bi is so amazing~~" Li Qianxia hugged Bi's petite body, unable to let go.

"Together."

"yes."

Li Changzhou tapped the sofa armrest with his fingers, then said thoughtfully, "From now on, don't enter the game anymore. Keep an eye on Earth for me. Work won't affect your strength."

The "Subway" instance is fraught with danger, filled with traps set by ancient masters, and Earth definitely needs a human-immortal level combatant to keep an eye on things.

“My lord,” Aferona said with a look of shame, “I don’t have much talent for management, so I’ll stick with you—”

Li Changzhou raised his hand to interrupt her: "This is an order."

Aferona is the best choice.

In the future, even immortals might not be able to control the situation on Earth. Without needing to go through dungeons, her strength will continue to increase. She can be considered a treasure, and Li Changzhou really can't bear to see her die.

The five branch presidents and five development team leaders arrived at the conference room quickly. In this day and age, there are too many ways to get around.

Of the seven first-class immortals, only three, excluding Bi, came.

The fourteen people sat on either side of the long table, with the branch president and development team leader at the front and the immortal at the back, separated by a considerable distance.

Bi was the only exception; she sat in front of the five development team leaders.

Everyone remained silent, occasionally glancing at Li Changzhou and the five planet models in the center of the long table, which were covered with red dots, some of which were even connected together, like blood stuck to them.

Li Changzhou also looked at the five planets.

“My lord, it’s time.” Aferona bent down and whispered in Li Changzhou’s ear—she stood behind Li Changzhou like a secretary.

Li Changzhou withdrew his gaze and glanced at the crowd.

"Isn't it said that there are seven immortal beings?" he asked.

“There are also three animal players: ‘Ironblood Ancient Tree,’ ‘Five-Headed Serpent,’ and ‘Purple Ant,’” Aferona said as she turned on the projector.

Images of the 'Iron-Blooded Ancient Tree', the 'Five-Headed Serpent', and the 'Purple Ant' slowly rotated on the long table.

“I recently realized something: the initial cooperation is inevitably full of wariness, distrust, and suspicion. Therefore,” three golden spears appeared behind Li Changzhou, “one party must demonstrate absolute strength to break through this ice. After one cooperation, the other party will have a wary respect, and then slowly turn into admiration and love.”

He picked up a golden spear and hurled it.

The spear pierced through the long table like a golden streak of light, then vanished quickly.

He threw the second one, then the third.

“Go and bring their bodies back,” Li Changzhou said.

The branch president, the development team leader, and the four immortals (including Bi) all felt a sudden tightness in their chests. Some remained expressionless, but their clenched hands were clenched with all their might.

"Yes." Aferona replied calmly, as if Li Changzhou had asked her to fetch a document from the office next door.

She stepped into the teleportation vortex and brought back a huge ancient tree.

The black trunk was covered with thick, vein-like ridges, and the leaves were all blood-red. The young martial saint stared blankly; he had fought the 'Iron-Blooded Ancient Tree' after becoming an immortal, and although he had the upper hand, he couldn't defeat it.

Before everyone could react, Aferona brought back the corpses of the 'Five-Headed Serpent' and the 'Purple Ant'.

Instantly kills immortals.

Lock the player.

Everyone's heart was pounding.

"Phew!" Bea Triss breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.

She was well aware of the situation at the head office, which could be described as being on the verge of collapse. However, the reason she described it as "on the verge" was because Li Changzhou was holding it back.

Now that Li Changzhou has demonstrated absolute strength, the situation should gradually improve.

With Li Changzhou's current physical strength, his 'Divine Will - Sure-Hit Golden Spear' was launched as a sneak attack, catching the opponent off guard. What kind of first-class immortal could withstand it?

"Hiss~" The king cobra lying at Li Changzhou's feet flicked its tongue to ensure that no poisonous gas would spread after the three corpses died.

“There are many things to do,” Li Changzhou smiled, as if nothing had happened, “but I believe that as long as we have a firm will and solve them one by one, the problems will naturally decrease. Don’t you think so?”

No one answered.

Most people bow their heads like sunflowers when the sun is at their feet.

After gathering her courage, Beya nodded and said, "...Of course."

“Then let’s begin,” Li Changzhou said, pointing to the five large stars. “We’ll start with the magic world, which has the most red stars. You tell us about your situation.”

He turned his gaze to Sweeney, the president of the wizarding world.

“My lord,” Sweeney said, slightly out of breath, “the magical world itself is not unified, and various forces are complex. They don’t know much about you yet. The Pope is also very concerned and plans to build a portal to connect to other worlds, but it has been blocked. We are keeping a close eye on this technology.”

Li Changzhou looked at the Little Martial Saint: "Go to the magic world, unify it within three days, kill those who refuse to surrender, and leave only the Adventurers' Guild, is that alright?"
