"Corpse Background 'Unnad': A carcass burning in the Incinerator"
"Talent: Fla Affinity (Fire Elent Ability enhanced by 10%, Fire Resistance by 20%)"
This Talent, combined with the Bond Ability "Fla Overlord," complented each other perfectly, yet Ren Suo still found it quite a struggle to control Unnad.
The black monster was incredibly resilient and attacked very frequently. Even if Unnad unleashed a Flaming Overlord Fist, the black monster would take the blows with its mouth, determined to bite at Unnad's fingernails until death.
In this ga, Unnad didn't have anything like a health bar, but rather a status indicator: Minor Injury, Serious Injury, Amputation, Disability, Death, and so on.
And true to a 5-star ga's difficulty, in the heat of battle, Ren Suo could use "Flash Step."
Simply put, it worked like this: the mont before an enemy's attack landed, if Ren Suo pressed the counterattack key, Unnad could inflict heavy damage on the black monster with lightning speed.
However, the judgnt chanism for Flash Step was very strict, and the timing was fleeting, making it a skill mastered by high-level players.
Even when facing the black monster's high-frequency attacks, Ren Suo rarely triggered "Flash Step." Instead, he often rolled to dodge attacks. However, whenever he did trigger Flash Step, he could send the black monster flying as if aided by divine power.
But whenever "Flash Step" was triggered and an execution followed, the voice line Ren Suo had set for Unnad would activate:
"Not bad."
...
In the live scene, Shen Tong saw the girl, Unnad, who had erged from the Incinerator, engaging fiercely with the black monster covered in mouths.
Unnad couldn't completely dominate the black monster; at tis they were evenly matched, and she was occasionally knocked down or bitten by it.
However, whenever the girl Unnad fell, she would quickly get back up. Regardless of her many wounds, she resolutely assud a fighting stance. Her hands ignited with fiery flas, and her face remained serenely calm as she faced the black monster!
Shen Tong, who had hidden to one side, firmly gripped his phone. He looked down and saw the screen displaying the fight before him, feeling a strange sense of dissonance.
He accidentally hit the button to open the live comnts and saw: "The girl who walked out of the Incinerator," "She has sustained so many injuries," "What kind of monster is that black one?" "Wow, that goofball is also playing with his phone"...
Huh? Is that last comnt talking about ?
Suddenly rembering sothing, Shen Tong hurriedly sent out a ssage in the live stream: "Live location is Baiyun City's Milky Way Park Funeral Ho!"
Then, without worrying whether his comnt was taken seriously, he quickly dialed 110 to report to the police.
But just as he was about to press '110', he heard the girl Unnad suddenly say:
"Not bad."
He looked up. The monster's tongue was about to lick the girl's chest when Unnad's turning straight punch hit it squarely, sending out a lotus-like burst of fiery critical hit!
This ti, the monster wasn't knocked back but instead emitted a piercing, tragic scream, like a pig being slaughtered, as it burned in the flas and vanished into black smoke.
Unnad relaxed her stance and held her head high. Despite being covered in injuries, her expression remained naturally calm—the palpable pride of a strong fighter was self-evident!
Is this... the person chosen by the Fairy Palace?
Was she made resplendent by the Fairy Palace, or was the Fairy Palace resplendent because of her?
With one phrase, "Not bad," one expression, one look in her eyes, Shen Tong found himself utterly captivated by her.
What kind of tenacious heart was hidden within her? Into what distant future were her eyes gazing? In the brief ten-odd minutes in the Incinerator, had she been reborn into a brand new being?
Such a beautiful, strong, and great girl!
Clenching his teeth, Shen Tong got up and approached, saying, "Your injuries are serious; there's a first-aid kit in the duty room..."
But Unnad paid him no attention, instead gazing at the ghosts floating above her head.
At that mont, Shen Tong heard the comntary from the Cloaked Girl with Blue Hair on his phone:
"Due to the Great Hope of the Immortal Venerate, the ghosts were burdened with the Source of Disaster, and their actions were constrained by it.
When the Source of Disaster was killed, the ghosts returned to normal. The Source of Disaster was the monster manifested from their lingering attachnts. Now that those attachnts have dissipated, they can finally depart.
Before leaving, they blessed the girl and gave her 1 Seed of Destiny."
The ghosts floating in the air all bowed to Unnad in salute. A ray of rosy light then descended onto her body, rapidly healing the wounds inflicted by the black monster.
A blue, diamond-shaped gem fell from the sky, rging into Unnad's body.
Soon, the ghosts faded away, and the Cremation Chamber reverted to its forr serenity.
"However, the girl now needs clothes to cover her body; perhaps she will figure out a way on her own."
When Shen Tong saw Unnad suddenly look towards him, he had a bad feeling.
...
Ren Suo, lying on the couch, let out a silent sigh of relief.
The first card had been played through.
And the rewards for this card were: Unnad's health was restored, and she gained 1 Seed of Destiny.
As far as Ren Suo knew, the Seed of Destiny was the only resource in this ga so far.
Every ti Ren Suo moved a piece to another card, it consud a Seed of Destiny. Just by examining the na of this resource, Ren Suo knew it must have other uses as well.
Initially, Ren Suo had five Seeds of Destiny, which ant Unnad had to acquire more Seeds of Destiny within five moves, or else...
He would have to top-up.
The channel for Krypton Gold purchases had appeared right from the start—it was the candle, the sole source of light in this space of Destiny.
For every ten rit Points burned in the candle's fla, the Player could obtain one Seed of Destiny. Even Ren Suo, who possessed the "Plucking Feathers from a Flying Goose" Player's Privilege, found it painfully expensive.
Next, Ren Suo chose to move the golden figurine piece to the card on the right.
Actually, he didn't have any other choice. With only four cards laid out in a straight line on the table, the figurine could only move across them.
The Cloaked Girl with Blue Hair revealed the second card: a panicked crowd engulfed by roaring, fiery flas.
"Despairing Flas"
Monts later, the image on the card switched to a live scene. It showed a supermarket in a small town at twilight, emitting billowing smoke. People covered in soot were erging, while others tried to douse the fire with water. However, the fire engines seed not to have arrived yet, making their efforts futile.
Moreover, the flas seed inextinguishable; even when doused with water, they burned ever more fiercely!
"Parents searched for their children, and children cried for their loved ones. However, the cruel, polluting flas were never swayed by the emotions of living beings."
The Cloaked Girl with Blue Hair softly said, "A girl passed by here, trying to go in to save people."
Out of nowhere, the Unnad girl suddenly appeared in the scene. Dressed in n's clothing, she walked against the fleeing crowd, entering the stage ravaged by smoke and fire.
At this point, invisible to the audience, options only Ren Suo knew appeared:
"1. Directly extinguish the fire; 2. Confront the Source of Disaster within the fire."
In the previous Card of Destiny, Ren Suo had faced a similar choice. He could have Unnad directly carry the young man away, or have Unnad challenge the Source of Disaster in the Funeral Ho.
Although both choices could save people, it was clear the forr offered no benefits. The latter, however, would not only save people but also allow Unnad to gain resources.
Without a doubt, Ren Suo chose "2." Then, the Cloaked Girl with Blue Hair gently waved, and four cards appeared in front of Ren Suo:
Hope, Hope, Despair, Despair.
The four cards imdiately flipped to their backs, rged together, and then separated again. Now, Ren Suo could choose one.
These four cards were 'Destiny Cards,' which allowed Players to influence the situation by drawing from them during special events!
For instance, when a Source of Disaster appears:
'Hope' and 'Great Hope' are cards that can weaken the Source of Disaster and provide imnse benefits to others.
'Despair' and 'Great Despair,' on the other hand, would strengthen the Source of Disaster, causing a negative impact on the Unnad girl.
Note, this act of drawing cards is also invisible to the audience. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the NoveI★Fire
So what did the audience see?
After Ren Suo drew a card, his eyes lit up, and he imdiately typed a dialogue—
Supre Supre: "Pity the people of the world, for their sorrows are truly many! Pity the people of the world, for their sorrows are truly many!"
Thus, the audience saw the Supre Supre, witnessing the fire, offer a card of 'Hope.'
Then, a golden rainbow light descended into the supermarket. The next mont, the billowing smoke inside dissipated instantly, and the roaring flas were contained and transford!
That's right, if Ren Suo had drawn a 'Despair' card, he would have definitely acted as though nothing happened, never letting the audience find out, and simply continued with the ga.
But if Ren Suo drew a 'Hope' card, then he would step forward as the Supre Supre to claim rit!
The audience will always see only a Supre Supre who can command the elents at will!
This is the secret to never appearing to have bad luck—you never see when I actually have bad luck!
So, monts later, the audience was shocked to see that after the Supre Supre offered 'Hope,' the smoke and flas in the supermarket coalesced into one smoke monster and two fla monsters!
Without a word, the three creatures charged and clashed with the Unnad girl!
However, beyond that, there was no more smoke or flas in the supermarket. The trapped people, bathed in the rainbow light, instantly found their legs strong and their backs no longer sore. It beca effortless for them to run, and they quickly escaped from the supermarket!
As they passed the entrance and saw the Unnad girl battling the monsters, they all cried out in English, loudly thanking and encouraging her.
The Unnad girl turned. After knocking back a fla monster with a Bajiquan Burst, she found a mont to say, "If you want to give thanks, thank the Immortal Venerate who transford the disaster."
Suddenly, the Unnad girl shouted loudly, "Thanks to the Immortal Venerate for the help!"
She then dispersed the flas on her body and gathered frost in her hands. She instantly froze the fla and smoke monsters, allowing the crowd to escape the supermarket more safely!
At this very mont, in Baiyun City, Shen Tong was watching the live stream. He found that his 6.5-inch smartphone screen was almost completely filled with scrolling comnts!
'They can actually turn a fire disaster into monsters!? Holy shit, holy shit!'
'Didn't she just grant the ability of flas? Now she's giving ice powers? Is the Fairy Palace wholesaling supernatural powers or what? Can I reserve a hypnosis ability... invisibility works too... X-ray vision is my bottom line.'
'Is this the Supre Supre of the Fairy Palace? Not only can they resurrect a corpse from the Incinerator and make a girl suddenly travel from Baiyun City to Massachusetts in the Federation, but they can even manipulate disasters from such a distance and casually heal the trapped civilians?'
'Hey? How do you know it's Massachusetts?'
'Look at the ti in the supermarket. Massachusetts ti is exactly 13 hours behind Sky Capital ti. And the Massachusetts TV station news just said a chain supermarket in the Boston area is currently on fire!'
'Go for it! Beat the fire monsters!'
'When the Immortal Venerate transford the monsters, could she have made them cuter? Like turn a fire disaster monster into a fiery red-haired babe…'
'Doesn't that make the smoke monster the fire lady's son?'
'Why a son? Wouldn't a daughter be better?'
'Why a daughter? Isn't a son even better?'
Suddenly, Shen Tong heard rapid footsteps outside. Soon, two policen appeared at the door. Startled to see him, they pointed a baton at him and demanded, "Who are you? Where are your clothes!?"
Shen Tong, wearing only his underwear, honestly confessed, "I'm the night shift worker at the Funeral Ho. As for my clothes..."
He pointed to his phone screen, where the Unnad girl was playing with fire and ice against the fla and smoke monsters. "There," he said. "She... I gave them to her."
