The sky was azure, and the two suns shone brightly.

At this moment, a purple figure was rapidly traversing through the gradually thinning clouds.

It is none other than one of the Abyss Civilization's promising talents... the Infernal Demon Emperor, Otis!

Now, apart from the broken demon horn on his head, Otis's injuries have almost fully recovered.

There's no way around it... The unexpected death of the Destruction Demon Queen Lilith has put immense mental pressure on the two remaining seeded contenders of the Abyss Civilization.

After an emergency discussion with Otis, Padis found that what Otis said made a lot of sense.

Who knows what other trump cards this human team has up their sleeve? They really need to end the match quickly; Lilith's not here, and they're really panicking...

So let's wait for the next match, and talk about everything after Lilith is resurrected.

Unfortunately... Padis, in his full strength, lacked the ability to move quickly. Left with no other choice, Padis lent his innate magical energy to Otis, allowing Otis to quickly clear the area.

Otis, who had merged with Padis's innate magical energy, managed to clear the area relatively smoothly overall. After all, no other civilization had yet demonstrated the ability to move quickly.

So with the system providing the map... Otis doesn't need to worry about being shot down by someone again; he can fly with peace of mind.

While flying at high speed, Otis habitually opened the virtual map and glanced at it.

Great... thanks to the continuously rising temperatures after the Cataclysm mode...

Several more goblin fighters have been automatically eliminated, leaving only nine. It's estimated that after he kills a few more, the goblins will have to consider whether to surrender.

After all... losing 90% of a planet's resources is better than the planet being destroyed, right?

It wasn't that Otis necessarily wanted to kill the goblins, but among the memory fragments extracted earlier, the goblins were the weakest. Weakness is the original sin...

First of all, the Giant Tree Civilization was an ally from ten thousand years ago, and its strength was considerable, so it's impossible for them to wipe out the entire area, so they can be ruled out.

Secondly, although Otis was unfamiliar with the witchcraft civilization, judging from the fragments of memory, the power of those high-level witches seemed to be even stronger than that of fairies.

Because the Witch Kingdom frequently holds various competitions, even if Otis only kills common witches, he can still understand the strength of high-level witches.

Although the witches haven't shown anything particularly outstanding in this competition so far, Otis decided to avoid provoking them and ruled them out as well.

As for the human race, needless to say, it's the human race that's the concern...

Finally... only goblins remained....

Not only are they weak... but they're also ugly...

Otis glanced at the chaotic world channel.

Hmm... talkative...

Tsk tsk tsk... In this situation, who else would we target if not you?

Otis, turning his gaze back to the virtual map, suddenly discovered that he would encounter humans and witches on the route to the next goblin.

Sigh... Otis sighed inwardly...

I didn't intend to contact you, yet you've come to me of your own accord. Aren't you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?

Despite his sigh, Otis had no intention of taking a detour. Although he wanted to end the match as soon as possible, it was only for the sake of playing it safe, and it didn't mean that Otis was really afraid of the players from these two races.

Taking a detour would be too embarrassing. As one of the veteran Demon Emperors of the Abyss, Otis still has some pride. After all, the Abyss is broadcasting live right now...

If it were a seeded player, Otis would be somewhat wary, but if it were just a random player, Otis wouldn't feel threatened at all.

never mind....

We'll see when the time comes...

If you're a seeded player, then make a strategic retreat.

If it's a random player, just kill them; it's not like we haven't killed them before.

Having made up his mind, Otis closed the virtual map, stopped hesitating, and flew at full speed.

"What did the Special Security Bureau say? Can we deploy the mushroom now?"

With a sense of regret, Leng Feng gazed at the red planet outside the porthole. Such a perfectly round and large sphere, yet it was covered by a shield—it was just so frustrating…

"The Special Security Bureau means... that they are not inclined to use strategic weapons, because they haven't yet calculated what chain reactions would occur after destroying Red Star's atmosphere. After all, this is the first time they've encountered such an atmosphere."

Looking at Leng Feng's handsome profile with its sharp angles, the female assistant continued earnestly, her cheeks flushed, "If we're going to use strategic weapons, we should at least wait until the other two countries' ships arrive before deciding whether to use them. That way, we can all share the consequences."

"Sigh...then let's recall the Firefly Explorers..." Leng Feng suddenly turned around, looking at his female assistant with a slightly flustered expression, and asked with some confusion, "What's wrong?"

The female assistant composed herself and replied with a smile, "It's a bit of a pity. We were the first to arrive, but we have to wait for others to enter together."

“Who said… I have to wait for others to come together?” Leng Feng raised an eyebrow.

"If we can't wait... then let's..."

The female assistant looked puzzled.

"Pass on my order: have the Firefly Explorers return and bring the mining machine from the ship's hold. Since we can't get in, let's just drill!" Leng Feng said with an air of wisdom.

"Uh... is this even possible?" The female assistant was speechless. Drilling into the atmosphere in outer space? What kind of hellish idea is this?

"Take my advice, we'll drill first."

Leng Feng turned his head and looked at the red star outside the porthole again, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Even if we can't squeeze through, having a hole will make it easier to blow it up later..."

..........................

Pineapple Castle West.

A rugged, undulating sandstone area.

In the deep crevice formed by the intersection of two irregular giant rock blocks.

A small, thin figure, dressed in a tattered gray witch's robe, was huddled up in a ball, clutching a baguette taller than herself.

It was Anna, the witchcraft civilization contestant and apprentice witchcraft student who had been hiding here since the start of the competition!

At this moment, Anna stared wide-eyed at the virtual map of Saha Star, muttering to herself.

Because... on the virtual map, the red dot representing Otis is slowly approaching Anna's location.

"Waaaaah... It's coming, it's coming..."

"Waaaaah... What do I do, what do I do...?"

"Waaaah... Poor little Anna, someone please save her, she misses her grandma..."
