"What?!"

Upon hearing his sister Shen Yue’s words, Shen Fei’s expression changed dramatically. His entire body began to tremble as if he were having an epileptic seizure. Every muscle and joint shook uncontrollably, and his entire demeanor changed in a flash, as though he had become a completely different person.

"Brother!"

"Brother! Are you okay?!"

"What do we do?!"

"What about Dad? What do we do about Dad?!"

Seeing her brother’s strange reaction to the news, Shen Yue grew frantic. Her father was in a country tens of thousands of kilometers away, and it seemed he had been seriously injured. He had only been able to get to Country F because of a special item link. Shen Yue, who always turned to her brother when trouble arose, believing he could do anything, never expected him to react like this.

Her brother’s state terrified her.

That’s right... the distance is too great! From so far away, even if he wanted to save him, he couldn’t!

Assuming his drastic change was due to the dreadful news and his powerlessness to help from such a distance, Shen Yue’s own heart filled with anxiety, and she too became agitated.

"Brother Fei!"

"Brother Fei!"

In the end, it was Xiaohong who noticed something was truly wrong with Shen Fei. She tried grabbing his arm and shaking it, but when she saw his eyes remained unfocused, Xiaohong gritted her teeth. Through their touching arms, she released a sliver of the Succubus Power she had inherited in her second succession into his body.

HUFF... HUFF...

Not long after the Succubus Power entered his body, Shen Fei’s breathing began to quicken.

"AHHHH!"

A second later, the special power finally broke through Shen Fei’s stupor. He let out a great shout and snapped back to his senses.

"Brother!"

"Brother!"

"Brother, are you okay?!" Now that her brother was responsive again, Shen Yue cried out in relief.

"Wait here!" he commanded. "I’ll handle this!"

Back to his senses, Shen Fei’s expression remained grim. He glanced at Xiaohong beside him, then waved his hand, summoning a Teleportation Gate Tower and stepping through the Teleportation Gate.

WHOOSH—

His vision blurred, and Shen Fei appeared on the walls of [Yang City].

Away from his sister and Xiaohong, the first thing Shen Fei did was quickly readjust himself. Just moments ago, Xiaohong had grabbed his arm and shaken him. The instant he came to his senses, he realized her special power had unexpectedly affected him. He couldn’t make such an indecent adjustment in front of his sister and Xiaohong, so all he could do was leave quickly and then deal with it.

PHEW...

Having readjusted himself, he let out a long breath. He had no time to ponder what kind of ability Xiaohong possessed. All of his attention was focused on the stadium in Country F where the New Olympic Games were being held.

Originally, he had no intention of paying any attention to these buffoonish New Olympic Games. But he never expected it to end like this.

What had caused Shen Fei to lose his composure wasn’t the suddenly severed Divine Artifact Link. It wasn’t even his father being beaten until he coughed up blood. What made his mind go blank in that instant was the boss that had spawned atop the stadium in Country F—Magnus.

Magnus!

It was after being killed by this very being that he had been reborn three years in the past. It had been over a month since his rebirth, and in the dead of night, Shen Fei would sometimes wonder why it had happened. He also pondered what he would do if three years passed and Magnus was once again inherited from the game, appearing in Qing City.

But he never, ever expected that just a little over two weeks after the game’s inheritance began, the Super Boss from his past life—the one who caused his rebirth—would appear. Although the speed of version updates had increased countless times over since his rebirth, Shen Fei still hadn’t anticipated that Magnus could appear so much earlier, inherited the very instant the restriction on Super Bosses was lifted.

Moreover, the location of his inheritance had changed. From Qing City in Great Xia, it had moved to Country F, tens of thousands of kilometers away.

The moment he saw the image on his sister’s phone, Shen Fei knew. This was Magnus. This was the one who had killed him, the one who had annihilated Zhang Qiqiang’s five thousand tanks and obliterated their former Base City in a single move.

His fated enemy from his past life had appeared so soon. Shen Fei’s first thought was whether this was related to his own rebirth. The flood of shock and speculation that filled his mind instantly caused him to zone out. Thankfully, Xiaohong’s special ability had amplified another one of his emotions, allowing him to quickly regain his composure.

"Fight!"

"I have to fight!"

Standing on the walls of [Yang City], Shen Fei took several deep breaths, opened his mouth wide, and let out a furious roar.

Magnus was his inner demon, an inner demon that had to be slain.

He had to save his father. He had to save Huang Yi and Zhao Li, who were trapped tens of thousands of kilometers away. But what truly solidified his resolve, the reason he had to fight *now*, was the enemy’s identity: the Super Boss, Magnus.

It was *him*. This was his destiny, a hurdle he could not avoid. And what he had to do was shatter this inner demon.

WHOOSH—

The instant he roared, Shen Fei threw out the super item he had just activated a single use for: the [Array].

SHIIING~

Following Shen Fei’s command, lines of light materialized in mid-air.

SWISH!

SWISH!

SWISH!

To Shen Fei’s delight, the 200 Defense Towers he had been unable to retrieve, which had been sitting on the walls of [Yang City] for nearly a week, overlapped perfectly with the intersecting horizontal and vertical lines that had just appeared out of thin air. Each intersection point of the lines corresponded with the location of a Defense Tower.

Then, as he watched, the 200 Defense Towers were lifted directly from the walls and linked into the great Go-board array.
