The Soul Reaper from Kyoto!
Yunjianyue awoke from the Chaos.
She found herself in a sealed room, her entire body immobilized and even imprisoned within a Lightning Element Cage.
Her whole body was bound by ropes formed from lightning element energy.
This was a type of crowd-control item, and it was quite expensive.
Clearly, the official authorities had specially crafted this control method to keep her from acting recklessly while in a state of 'Chaos'.
When she regained consciousness, her expression became extremely grim.
Although she had been in a state of Chaos for the past two days, once she woke up, the memories of those two days flooded back like a tide, making her feel somewhat hysterical.
She…
Because of that Epic BOSS, the Double-headed Phoenix, she had fallen into a state of Chaos!
Before completely succumbing to Chaos, she and her teammates had been trapped inside the Hideout, unable to escape.
She had wittily tried to kill her teammates and use the three-second resurrection interval to log off, but…
"How can this be…"
"When carrying a Chaos affix gauge, you can't even log off upon Death?"
This situation was completely beyond Yunjianyue's expectations.
In fact, the reason she had been so 'confident' was that she had this method as a 'safety net'.
If they really couldn't escape in time, they would kill each other and use the 3-second gap between Death and resurrection to leave the combat state and log off.
But she never imagined that the three affixes—'Chaos', 'Whispers', and 'Nightmare'—were types that affected consciousness and spirit.
Even if their game bodies were in a state of Death, their consciousness and spirit were still affected by these three affixes.
Therefore, they couldn't log off!
And so…
When she and her teammates killed each other only to revive at the Hideout's respawn point, their faces turned incredibly pale.
Looking up, they could still see the incredibly playful and mocking gaze of that Double-headed Phoenix!
"Even though we are players…"
Yunjianyue completely broke down.
She realized that she was like a clown in front of that BOSS!
Then…
She remembered something even more desperate. Although they were all afflicted by the 'Wither' gauge, which reduced damage by 99%, they had frantically released skills and killed each other, quickly resulting in heavy casualties.
During this period, 'Shadow' arrived and took away that Phoenix Egg.
But their Chaos did not stop.
Yunjianyue recalled that the young man who had pursued her for a long time, as well as her younger brother, had actually perished completely in that Chaos…
"I… what on earth have I done…"
Yunjianyue broke down completely.
Inside the cage of gathered lightning elements, she wailed loudly, filled with heart-wrenching regret.
Just a few minutes after she regained consciousness.
A group of official personnel arrived in the sealed room. Some of them were from Kyoto City, and among them was a blind girl player surrounded by the crowd.
It was clear that everyone was quite cautious, ready to act at any moment to prevent any accidents.
"Wang Yunyue."
A leading woman walked in, called Yunjianyue by her name, and then sighed, saying, "You are an important powerhouse for our official team. Although these things happened, you are still very important to us."
"To avoid any future accidents, we have invited Miss Luo from Kyoto City. Her class is Soul Reaper. If you agree, she can help protect your Life Soul, so that even if your lifespan reaches zero in the future, you won't die for the time being."
Soul Reaper?
This was the first time Yunjianyue had heard of this class.
Hearing the woman's words while in her state of collapse, her mind was a jumbled mess, and she subconsciously nodded.
The blind girl, 'Miss Luo', had no expression on her fair little face.
She raised her hand and released a linking skill toward Yunjianyue…
When Yunjianyue received the system prompt, she chose to agree.
Then, a transparent figure resembling a tiny person flew out from her body and was caught and stored by 'Miss Luo'.
Once this was done, it was evident that everyone around breathed a sigh of relief.
"A Soul Reaper, although nominally protecting a person's Life Soul."
"But at the same time, the most important thing is to hold their life in their hands…"
The crowd looked at Yunjianyue with rather cold expressions.
From now on, if Yunjianyue was disobedient or committed any act of defiance, they could cause her direct Death through her Life Soul!
Most of the people left, leaving only a man and a woman behind to talk to Yunjianyue.
"Wang Yunyue, your younger brother Wang Shanxue and your teammate Gao Liangying have died because of your team's state of Chaos."
The middle-aged man looked at Yunjianyue and said in a heavy voice, "We express our regrets for this. If there's anything you want to say, you can tell us now."
Yunjianyue's dyed fiery-red hair was a mess. She remained silent for a few seconds, then raised her head, her eyes showing her unwillingness: "Why… why does the official side have a class like Soul Reaper but hasn't announced it?"
"If we were all protected by a Soul Reaper, wouldn't my brother and Xiao Liang not have to die?"
Her tone was a bit aggressive.
But the middle-aged man didn't mind and said with a faint smile, "There is a limit to the number of people Miss Luo can protect. Besides, even if we told you in advance, you wouldn't necessarily be willing to be protected by a Soul Reaper. Because giving your Life Soul to a Soul Reaper means your life is controlled by them. If Miss Luo wanted to kill you, you wouldn't live to see the next second…"
When these words were spoken, Yunjianyue's head suddenly buzzed.
It was over.
She was a smart person and immediately realized…
She had been set up by the official authorities!
"I am very strong, so even if I made a mistake, they wouldn't punish me…"
"But they would use this method to keep me firmly in their hands!"
Yunjianyue was completely stunned.
The middle-aged man ignored her reaction and expression, saying to himself, "This matter started because of you. You must take the greatest responsibility. Additionally, regarding Mr. Shadow, the Hai City official side where you were located has awarded him the Hai City Guardian medal for his meritorious performance in helping Hai City resolve a major crisis."
After saying this, the middle-aged man observed Yunjianyue's reaction.
Yunjianyue lowered her head and nodded with a dejected face: "I know… I have no issue with Shadow. I just… I just want to kill that phoenix to avenge my brother and A-Liang… Is that phoenix dead?"
The young woman handling her gave a soft laugh: "You don't need to worry about that. In a little while, you'll go to Kyoto with us and join our Kyoto Second Pioneer Team. We've already settled everything with your parents."
…
Yunjianyue's fate was thus decided.
Without any preparation, she was firmly controlled by the official authorities, not just through the 'Soul Reaper', but also through the connection with her parents.
From then on, she could only stay in Kyoto and use her strength to contribute to the Great Xia Official.
Of course, the authorities wouldn't treat her entirely like a beast of burden.
Once in Kyoto, there would naturally be some special rules and systems to motivate her…
Of course, none of this had anything to do with Qin Feng.
In short.
Without Qin Feng's knowledge, the official authorities had already dealt with the unstable 'time bomb' that was 'Yunjianyue'.
Regardless of whether Yunjianyue had any intention of retaliating against Qin Feng, it had been completely nipped in the bud by the official authorities!
As for Qin Feng, he was busy grinding monsters with the newly hatched little phoenix.
During the continuous monster grinding process.
Basically, for every three hundred monsters killed, he could refine the effect of the 'Curse Stone Slab of the Extreme Love Goddess' once.
When Qin Feng refined it again, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Oh, these attributes are pretty good."
