"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,...
"Ah!" Before death could strike, the Indian player screamed in agony.
The flames seemed to seep into every pore of his body, and even flames began to emerge from his eyes and ears.
The Indian player roared, commanding Death to attack with unwavering willpower.
But the brief opening created by the excruciating pain allowed Li Qianxia to flash into the flames. Death followed, its cold and eerie bone scythe ignoring the flames and slicing down.
Li Qianxia lifted the pot lid and roared at the same time.
The Grim Reaper's scythe touched the pot lid, and the ashes flew away like dust. Li Qianxia looked on in shock.
The Indian player had become a pillar of fire, and with a thud, his eyeballs, burned to a pulp, fell out of their sockets, hanging on his face like a piece of rotten flesh.
On the observation deck, Li Changzhou, focused intently, looked down at Prague with a cold expression, as if he could see the burning corpses of the Indian players through the raging flames.
He couldn't see it, nor did he know that it was the Crocodile God Sobek, whose understanding of fire was constantly flooding into his mind.
Everything that was burned down in Prague was transformed into intangible and precious knowledge, which he absorbed.
On the white identity card, the three blue flame characters "Flame Wave" brightened and turned into white light, which is the symbol of 'comprehension'.
Even if Li Changzhou replaces it, he can still unleash the Flame Wave.
As this subtle change appeared on the identity card, the flames engulfing Prague grew increasingly violent and raging, forcing back and illuminating the night sky.
Li Qianxia picked up Sobek's white identity card and followed closely behind Ant Black River.
She had heard Qinglan say that ants are called "super-individuals"—not because the individual is so powerful, but because each ant is just a "cell" of the anthill.
For the sake of their nest, any ant is willing to sacrifice itself, demonstrating a social nature far exceeding that of humans.
At this moment, amidst the sea of fire, this "super-individual" characteristic is on full display.
The ants gathered together and rolled out many black spheres, the smallest of which were as big as a soccer ball.
The black spheres rolled like clumps of ignited tumbleweeds!
The large ants were also covered with tiny ants, which formed a thick fireproof suit with their flesh.
The giant ant sprinted like a moving fireball!
Under the raging fire, the outermost ants emitted bluish smoke, and the air was filled with a pungent, acrid smell.
Ants, their surfaces charred and burnt, kept falling to the ground, leaving tiny specks of fire like dripping candle wax.
One layer of ants is burned to death and charred, and a new layer of ants takes its place. The ant ball and the giant ants resolutely shuttle through the sea of fire.
Some ant balls stopped rolling and collapsed in the fire, while others made it to the nest.
Upon reaching the nest, these ant balls, their outer layers charred, stopped. The charred shells cracked, and the balls dissolved into a swarm of ants, which swarmed over the queen and enveloped her.
Scattered flames followed the trail into the cave, but oxygen was scarce underground, and some ants carried the flames to block the entrance, quickly extinguishing the fire.
Even flames were powerless against this fearless and ruthless group.
Besides the ants, some players also hid in the water, relying on underwater breathing or their strong breath-holding ability to get away from the sea of fire.
But many more flesh and blood bodies, attempting to resist, danced and howled in the flames, emitting the smell of roasting meat.
Not just flames.
Oxygen deficiency, thick smoke, and high temperatures are more terrifying than flames, seeping into every tightly closed and non-flammable door crack.
A cluster of flames burst into the university laboratory. The high temperature of the thermite was enough to melt steel. This cluster of flames was transported away to some troublesome places.
The fire burned for a very, very long time.
When the flames died down, the sun lifted its black veil from the earth, and a sliver of light pierced the horizon, Prague, this famous tourist city in the heart of Europe, was left with only flames, corpses, bloodstains, and exposed steel frames of buildings...
A scene of ruins.
"Don't you think... this is crazy?" Having not slept all night, Bi's expression was somewhat numb, but her eyes held a mixture of fear and fascination.
“This is a crazy world to begin with.” Li Changzhou stood up and took a deep breath of the morning air, which was filled with the smell of burning.
【game over】
[Currently, there are 499 surviving members in the arena.]
Yang Qinglan looked at Bi and said, "Remember our phone number. If you need anything in real life, you can come to us."
"Hmph! You are the ones who are!" The Tsar's princess crossed her arms. "If you can't make it in Xia Kingdom, you can come here and be my maids and servants."
Li Qianxia flew back from the horizon, transformed back into human form, returned the pot lid to Bi, and handed the two boxes of identity cards she had collected to Li Changzhou.
He took out the white card, and in an instant, all the points on the two identity cards were absorbed.
The redemption list for this event is now open to all participating players for one day only.
[Returning Players]
The temporary scene "Prague" has begun to be removed.
Li Changzhou opened his eyes and found the scene in front of him very familiar: a table, a microphone, and Xiaoyue, who was wearing a work dress and had a curvaceous figure.
This is a cramped little room with a large screen opposite it displaying some information.

"Wow! Have you ever thought about creating a legendary tale of a brother and sister sharing one woman?!"
Little Moon's bright eyes stared intently at Li Changzhou.
