The disparity in strength was clear at a glance.

"Polaris! Well done!"

Su Keying cheered for him.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

Among these players, she was the earliest and most familiar with Polaris, and naturally she was more biased toward him.

Wei Yin was thoroughly enjoying the sight but secretly she was barraging in the live stream chat:

"Worthy of the path of Sequence taken by Jack! Jack is awesome! Jack, I love you! Chu mi!"

Thanks to the observations of some attentive individuals, Polaris’s details were also somewhat exposed.

It is probable that he became so strong because he joined the Circus and took the same Path of Destiny as Jack.

This also strengthened the resolve of the spectators, who were determined to join the NPC Jack’s force at the earliest!

And then they would choose the Sequence Path of the Destiny Faction!

This is clearly a broad and easy road!

However, what everyone didn’t notice was a blind girl in a black dress slowly walking from one end of the square.

It was only when she appeared in the live broadcast that people reacted.

"Run!!" "Amber City’s Law Enforcers are here!" "Jack’s nun!" "What’s there to fear? There are ten Transcendent player characters here, can’t we beat just one?!"

The Horseman had the quickest reaction; his face changed color when he caught sight of Floey from the corner of his eye.

"Quick, let’s go! We’ve made too much noise and have attracted the officials’ attention!"

Dongyang and Chenxi were similarly startled.

As formal members of the Circus, they already knew that their force had a cooperative relationship with the official Shelter and acted in the role of "Law Enforcers."

The arrival of Floey was surely to suppress them!

If they were caught and thrown into the "Undying Prison," that would be the end of them!

Even though they hadn’t committed any serious offenses, exposing Supernatural Power in front of the ordinary civilians watching at Black Messenger Square was at least a few months in prison—the vegetables would go cold!

"How about we fight back?"

Kuang Benkuang suggested.

"You’re crazy!"

The others all turned to look at him.

"I don’t want to be kicked out of the Circus and then wanted."

Doghead Gold and Forget No Taboo drank from a "Blood Bottle" and said with lingering fear.

"Don’t fight back, and don’t run."

At this moment, Polaris came over and spoke gravely.

"Just stand still and let Jack’s nun do the killing."

"??"

The others were confused.

"—She won’t arrest us, trust me."

Polaris typed in the chat room.

"—It’s just one death, a warning from Jack: don’t act rashly."

Out of trust, the others ultimately heeded Polaris’s advice, standing silently in place, neither resisting nor fleeing.

"Foreign Undead, by defying the ’Sun Codex’ and ’Containment Regulations,’ using Supernatural Power in public, and brawling with a crowd, you shall be punished!"

Floey calmly approached, and with a spread of her hand, black and purple vines sprang from the ground, rapidly forming a long scythe.

She invertedly held the scythe, her face expressionless, and gently began:

"The will of Lord Jack shall be executed by me, Floey!"

A black blade of light slashed across.

Several players were all beheaded and dissipated into white light.

Polaris let the Golden-winged Sparrow on his shoulder go and shook his head helplessly.

He spoke out to warn them after receiving a message from Jack.

At the same time, he also felt a bit frustrated—if Dongyang hadn’t dismissed his advice and insisted on choosing Black Messenger Square as the PK venue, they wouldn’t have had to suffer this death.

"Miss Floey, please proceed."

He spoke calmly.

Floey was silent, raised the scythe, and sliced Polaris in two.

[You have died!]

All Transcendent players present, except for Su Keying and Wei Yin, were sent to the Resurrection Point.

A sense of relief rose in their hearts.

"—Dongyang, it’s all because of your bad idea!"

Chenxi typed.

"—How is that my fault? Didn’t your Chenxi benefit immensely too? Over six million viewers in the livestream, and loads of forum posts discussing it!"

Dongyang replied.

"—Luckily Polaris warned us, otherwise if we truly started running, that would have been the end for us all!"

The Horseman typed.

"—Jack is truly so gentle, I’m gonna cry to death!"

Wei Yin also joined the chat room, chiming in with a comment.

"Old yin-yang man, gloating over other people’s misfortune, aren’t you?"

Doghead Gold spoke.

"She’s not wrong. If Jack weren’t treating you as formal members of the Circus, I’m afraid you’d all have been captured by now! Next time, don’t be so high-profile!"

Su Keying spoke.

"Speaking of which, Polaris, how did you know Jack’s nun wouldn’t capture us?"

Dongyang asked with some puzzlement.

"I have formally become Jack’s apprentice, his student. As for matters of the way, better ask fewer questions."

Polaris spoke.

"!!!"

The players in the chatroom, at their respective Resurrection Points, all showed shocked expressions.

"Goodness gracious! I’m going straight to goodness gracious!"

"No wonder Polaris is so strong!"

"I’m so jealous! If I had known, I would have chosen the Destiny Faction too! Becoming a student of Jack, that’s just too romantic!"

"Hurry and tell the guild members, whoever can make it to Amber City, move quickly, and choose the Destiny Faction when there! This is a path with limitless prospects!"

Black Messenger Square.

The crowd of players spectating was startled by this sudden turn of events.

They looked at the slender black-dressed figure in the center of the square with an inexplicable fear.

"Eight Transcendents just slaughtered like that?!"

"Did they fall into some kind of mental illusion, standing motionless in line as if queueing up to die?"

"Terrifying! It’s too terrifying! Is this Jack’s nun?!"

But there was another kind of voice, the one seeking an opportunity to approach Floey, possibly triggering some quest, thus joining the Circus.

However, when the first brave soul rushed over, before they could even speak, they were instantly killed by Floey’s great scythe, promptly deterring any other players who had the same idea.

"My, my, Jack’s nun is truly ruthless and not one for many words. Looks like it’s time to find another way..."

"Look at the forums, Doghead Gold from the God’s Love Guild has made a post. He says you can first join their ’Hercules Cult,’ and then they will recommend members to join the Circus subsidiary organization ’Iron Fist Gang’, after which there’s a chance to trigger the promotion quest to join the ’Circus’!"

"What?! I’m going to check it out!"

"Let’s go, let’s get in touch with him!"

Su Keying uploaded the live broadcast video to the forum, quickly becoming popular, rising swiftly in the rankings, and entering the top ten.

More and more players, inspired by this PK, mused over their own potential promotions.

Many high-level players from various big and small guilds turned their attention to the promotion channels of these rising star Transcendents—namely the NPC "Guide of Destiny" Jack and the faction he belonged to.

Some individuals had even started to make their way toward Gem State’s Amber City, planning to find a way to join the Circus and seek the path of a Transcendent.

The term "Circus" was also becoming more frequent in forum discussions.

A group of solo players began seeing Polaris as an idol. After all, to hammer the Transcendents from several major guilds as a solo player was just too cool!

And so, the nickname "Bro Polaris" gradually gained prominence.

Perhaps even Polaris himself did not realize that, after this PK, he had inadvertently gained many fans.

Another day passed.

Chen Lun entered the Immortal Realm as agreed.

He appeared directly in the attic of a white spire, which also seemed to be a sort of wooden Save Point.

Through the transparent crystal stone walls, he saw the dim sky outside, faintly radiating an odd cyan-gray light, occasionally streaked with pale yellow halos.

’The Pollution Tide is coming...’

Chen Lun mused for a moment.

Opening the door, he walked down the stone spiral staircase, leaving the spire.

The twin sword and shield White Cat Warriors standing at the door saw him, immediately saluting respectfully.

"My Lord Eyewitness!"

Chen Lun nodded to them and turned to glance at the time symbols on the outer wall of the spire.

"It’s already half-past four in the afternoon..."

Your journey continues with novelbuddy

Boom...!

Just then, a dull thunder sounded in the sky.

High Priest Daye approached him.

"Eyewitness, the Pollution Tide is about to arrive! The White Cat Warriors are assembling on the city walls, preparing to fend off those crazed polluted creatures."

It spoke.

"Take me to the city walls."

Chen Lun said.
