Chu Fu glanced around, but naturally, she didn’t see her brother anywhere.
Little Mother Hen is here!
Chu Fu opened the private chat and sent him a message: “Cluck cluck cluck cluck. Where are you? How much Contribution do you still need? I have some extra on hand!”
After a busy day, Chu Feng saw the message Chu Fu had deliberately sent him and couldn’t help laughing.
This time, he hadn’t made the rankings. His Assassin class didn’t have any large-scale area-of-effect attacks, and that had cost him.
As a result, he hadn’t obtained a Divine Power Fragment.
But it didn’t matter. Divine Power Fragments could be obtained by killing divine envoys. He believed there would be other opportunities in the future.
“No need for you to give me any. I can just buy them directly! Keep yours and sell them for money!” Chu Feng didn’t want to take anything from Chu Fu. He had been the one taking care of her ever since they were children. When had he ever needed his little sister to take care of him?
“Now I’m angry, Brother! Do you even consider me family? What’s yours and what’s mine? You even bought me half a manor! And the equipment too—all of it was obtained through your hard work.
“You can’t be the only one making sacrifices while I’m not allowed to contribute or make something of myself. Don’t I want to give my brother something too?”
Chu Feng knew these were all excuses his little sister had come up with.
But she was also sincere.
Fine. He admitted that his little sister was better at gaming than he was. There was nothing wrong with that.
It was just a little irritating that those guys secretly in love with his sister were actually slightly stronger than he was. That really stung.
He was genuinely afraid that some blond punk would sweep his sister away.
But his sister really was impressive. She had carved out a path completely different from the game’s usual progression—a path Chu Feng had never imagined before.
The power of the masses.
Sacrifice to become a god.
As for him, a lone wolf, his path was growing narrower and narrower.
So, had he been reborn in order to save his little sister?
“All right, all right. Then I’ll leech off my little sister!”
“Haha, then I’ll wait for you at the City Lord’s Residence.”
Afterward, Chu Feng returned to Thorn City.
Now that the global disaster was over, Thorn City was packed with people once again. Fortunately, Chu Feng held an official position in the city and could return directly without waiting in line.
He also had access to Chu Fu’s City Lord’s Residence. When he returned there, he found that everyone happened to be present, busy exchanging items and discussing the direction of their future skill development.
With a grand wave of her hand, Chu Fu gave half of her Contribution to Chu Feng and told him to exchange it for whatever he wanted.
The others were also trading resources among themselves.
This round of exchanges would produce another batch of False Gods.
They also discussed where they would level up next.
At present, Chu Fu had reached Level 67 and was only a little short of Level 70.
Feng Huimin pushed up her glasses and began reporting to Chu Fu.
“Boss, Guild Leader Long has sent word as well. He’s invited us to explore the Elemental Land together.”
“Considering that the sixth wave of global disasters may require one hundred million Level 60 players to trigger ahead of schedule, Guild Leader Long has decided not to open the Elemental Land to the public. We’ll clear it with our own people.
“I suggest that all the players from Thorn Workshop go to Elemental City together instead of competing with ordinary players for the Mechanical Star.
“Of course, if Mechanical Boss also wants to follow the sacrifice route now, it may delay him somewhat.”
Shen Chi said, “That’s fine. I can open up quests and let other players help with the sacrifices, not to mention the assistance we’ll get from the clones.
“Besides, players used to think only about selling mechanical corpses for money. After seeing Plant Girl’s defense of the city this time, I believe many of them will be willing to make sacrifices in exchange for attribute points.”
Feng Huimin quickly said, “I’ll have someone spread the word!”
Seeing that everyone had made their arrangements, Chu Fu immediately gave the order. “All right! Let’s head to the Elemental Land now! Squeeze every last bit of value out of them and take down the divine envoy!”
With Chu Fu’s command, the entire Thorn Guild mobilized.
The Thorn Guild now had millions of players, and they all headed toward Dragon City.
Chu Fu also met up with Long Zhantian.
Standing beside Long Zhantian was a familiar face.
It was none other than No Talking in Class.
The name of a guild affiliated with Dragon Soaring Across the Nine Provinces appeared above his head, clearly showing that he had joined the official faction.
“This time, the Demon-Sealing Knight will lead the expedition into the dungeon. Without your sacrifice method, it would have been extremely difficult to withstand this wave of disasters, so it’s better to be cautious.”
Chu Fu nodded.
“Send in the clones first!”
“Let’s do it!”
A large number of clones were then created.
This time, the spatial rift opened directly above the headquarters of Dragon Soaring Across the Nine Provinces. A spatial defensive barrier had also been activated, preventing any players not authorized by the guild from entering.
Long Zhantian arranged for people to enter in batches, with Chu Fu’s Thorn Guild naturally being among the first.
Soon, roughly four million players entered the rift.
Chu Fu had now reached the True God level and had further enhanced both her talents and skills. Even her clones were frighteningly powerful.
After all, sacrificing the disasters had given Chu Fu far more than just one skill.
It had also granted her attributes!
With each wave of sacrifices, Chu Fu could increase her Spirit and Constitution by at least ten points. Ten waves would mean one hundred points, and with ten thousand cities…
A million attribute points had all fallen into Chu Fu’s hands alone.
The result was astonishing.
Even at only one-tenth of her full strength, Chu Fu was already a formidable player with more than ten thousand points in both Constitution and Spirit.
With the enhancement of her various skills, Chu Fu’s current strength was in no way inferior to that of a False God.
Led by Feng Huimin, with the clone of No Talking in Class at the vanguard, a large number of clones quickly entered the Origin-level dungeon: the Elemental Land.
The moment they entered, everyone was stunned by the world before them.
The Elemental Land was truly made entirely of elements.
Hurricanes filled the air. Beneath their feet was either lava or quicksand. Even the trees did not grow from the ground; they grew automatically in midair.
Everyone who had come was a Level 60 player, and every one of them could fly. Even so, they felt as if there was nowhere to set foot.
Humans needed solid ground beneath them.
“Nullify Magic!”
No Talking in Class immediately activated his skill, bringing all the elements to a halt.
The surrounding Origin-level monsters noticed them and prepared to attack, but once their magic was nullified, they lost control over the elements.
The players struck one after another, killing the surrounding elementals.
But even so, the area was still being battered by violent winds, and there was nowhere to stand beneath them.
Shen Chi quickly came up with a solution.
“Build a Sky City. We’ll move and fight from there!”
For Shen Chi, who had already become a god, this was not difficult.
He only needed a massive amount of materials.
And materials were the one thing Shen Chi had in abundance.
Long Zhantian also opened up Dragon Soaring Across the Nine Provinces’ inventory.
With the two sides working together, they built a floating city in the Elemental Land.
Shen Chi constructed the city, and it was eventually named Flying City.
Afterward, Long Zhantian had the spatial mages build an interworld teleportation array within Flying City.
The official faction’s technology had undeniably improved once again.
This way, they no longer needed to keep the spatial rift open and waste resources.
While Chu Fu led her people in sweeping through the Elemental Land, the game forums were abuzz.
The discussions had started with summaries of the global disaster, then shifted to criticism of the guilds that had held everyone back. In the end, however, the hottest topic had become a battle over the faith of the gods.
[Brothers, sacrificing disasters doesn’t mean there’ll be disasters every time. Trust me—go hunt monsters on Mechanical Star and sacrifice them to the Mechanical God!]
