"Since I didn't get enough fun over at the Villager Kingdom, this time I'll enjoy it properly on you lot!!"

At this moment, Entity 303 no longer cared about those words, "the trust my king finally managed to build."

These players who completely put personal interest above all else, never using that pig brain of theirs to think, easily swayed by others, easily used by others,

Were they still worth protecting like this all the time?

At least right now, the answer in Entity 303's mind was, not worth it.

With the flames of intense anger in his heart burning all the way to his body's surface, Entity 303 finally couldn't hold it in anymore, and completely erupted.

The temperature in the area suddenly shot up in an instant.

From the sky, a meteor-like rain of fire poured down, indiscriminately attacking the strengthened wither and the players in the area.

BOOM! BOOM!

In the blink of an eye, the entire area was blasted until only a single layer of bedrock remained.

Within the bombing range, there were no longer any signs of the strengthened wither or the players, they had all been melted until not even their bones were left.

Although there were no living beings left in the area, the meteor fire rain still continued for quite a while.

Entity 303 was undoubtedly venting his anger.

"Ah…"

As a scream came from the distance, Entity 303 finally stopped.

He looked toward the direction of the sound.

It was a group of players; they seemed to have just arrived.

Entity 303 looked coldly at this group of players, pondering whether or not to attack them as well,

But that group of players spoke first.

"Fire God???…"

"I knew it, at times like this, only HIM and his people can be relied on!"

"Hey, your stance might not be wrong, but if he kills the wither, where are we supposed to farm deaths, huh?…"

"Yeah… and he just now seemed to attack players too?…"

"You call that attacking players? In battles of this level, players are bound to get caught in the crossfire, who told them to just stand there not moving…"

"One thing's for sure, the Fire God is definitely guarding this world, but it's also kind of a dilemma… if he kills the wither, it'll be hard for us to get rewards from the officials… after all, I also really want the official rewards…"

From the players' conversation, it could be seen that they were conflicted.

At this moment, some players with a conscience were actually feeling hesitant inside.

Seeing this game world being wrecked into such a mess, if no one cared, they would definitely feel awful.

But if someone did care… then their rewards…

At this moment, the players' words also fell into Entity 303's ears.

Their conversation actually made Entity 303 a little surprised.

"My actions just now… can be interpreted like this???"

Entity 303 originally thought that after seeing him slaughter players, these players would surely spread the word.

The title of "arsonist" would likely replace the title of "Fire God."

Yet he didn't expect the players to interpret it like this.

"Hiss…"

"That's right! Under the name of accidental injury, I could just kill those people who are feeding themselves to it!!"

Entity 303 never expected that this time, his moment of impulse would actually open up a way through for him.

At this moment, Entity 303's mood was excellent.

He walked up to this group of players, looked at the one leading them, and said, "The officials will indeed compensate players afterward."

"The compensation will not change based on the number of deaths. The point isn't the compensation, it's the 'afterward'."

After saying this, he swept his eyes over this group of players, then continued, "Only if there's an afterward will there be compensation."

"The Void needs to harvest lives to gain power, this time, what's appeared is just a small boss."

"When the one behind the scenes steps onto the stage, do you think there will still be any 'afterward' to speak of?"

Saying this, Entity 303 leaned forward and tapped his temple.

"Use this a bit more."

After saying that, he turned around, leaving behind a cool and handsome back view as he left.

Entity 303 really did pull off the act well.

Full of swagger, and he concisely and clearly told the players the key point.

Whether they could understand it or act on it, that was the players' business.

Anyway, Entity 303 had now found a reasonable excuse for his kill-stealing behavior, "Accidental injury, accident, no other choice."

Moreover, from this group of players' argument, it could also be seen that some players in their hearts still hoped Entity 303 and his side would step forward and settle this problem.

But they just couldn't resist the temptation of freeloading official rewards.

———

Half a day after Entity 303 left, this group of players finally came back to their senses.

"Damn, he's so handsome?…"

"Hiss… from arsonist to Fire God, his coolness went up more than just a little!!"

"Wasn't he just calling us brainless? Why can't I get angry about it?…"

This group of players had also been momentarily dazzled by Entity 303's high-light moment just now,

They swooned for a while before starting to think about the content of Entity 303's words.

"He said the reward wouldn't change based on number of deaths, was that true??"

"Honestly, if it was anyone else, I might not believe it, but this is Entity 303… his identity…"

"Oh yeah… when he was alive, ah, ptoo ptoo, before… before, he was a game company programmer!"

"Come to think of it, yeah, if rewards were based on number of deaths, with everyone farming deaths now, how much stuff would the game company have to give out?"

"Even if it was true, the stuff they give probably wouldn't be that great, right?…"

"Forget it, forget it… let's not join in this mess, let's go stay in the Nether…"

Actually, in most players' hearts, they didn't really believe the idea that the more deaths you had, the greater the rewards.

But in this world, most people can't escape four words, herd mentality.

Even if everyone felt this matter was unreliable, if so many people were doing it, people would instinctively join in too.

But at times like this, all it takes is to sit down and think carefully for a bit, or for someone from outside to point it out,

And they can quickly understand.

———

[In a Certain Nether Bunker]

"(xxx,xxxx,xxx), a strengthened wither has appeared!"

"(xxx,xx,xx), a slightly larger wither, suspected to be a purple consciousness body…"

"Strengthened withers have started appearing near the bunker too! Damn! Where did they come in from!"

Withersla's appearance had completely ignited the war, and just as the Villager King had said, this war wasn't only in the Overworld.

The flames of war would inevitably spread to the Nether.

The current situation in the Nether wasn't very optimistic either.

Those strengthened withers were probably coming into the Nether through Nether portals.

Although their numbers weren't large for now, and their strength wasn't particularly high, the Nether was so vast that finding and eliminating all portals was impossible.

Even so, the situation here was still under control.

After all, aside from Entity 303, all of the Demon King group's combat power was here.

Killing those little small fry was still easy.

While the Dread Lord was busy deploying troops, he didn't expect Entity 303 to appear in front of him.

Seeing Entity 303 come over at a time like this, the Dread Lord was also shocked inside.

"What happened?"

He had already heard from the Execution Dragon about Withersla, and also knew about Withersla's combat power.

Naturally, the Dread Lord feared that something had gone wrong up there.

If it were normal times, Entity 303 would definitely take the chance to mess with the Dread Lord a bit, it wasn't often you could see him so anxious and flustered.

But now, time was urgent, and Entity 303 naturally put the bigger matter first.

"Frustrated, right? The well-made plan got ruined by that group of players."

This sudden sentence from Entity 303 left the Dread Lord dumbfounded. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Entity 303 raise an eyebrow and grin,

"Come on, let's go steal kills from the Void together!"

Hearing Entity 303's words, the Dread Lord was stunned for a moment.

"Does this Rookie leave such a big shadow on this kid? Why is it that after finding a Rookie, he's all crazy and jumpy?…"

"Or did the Void take over his body??…"

Of course, given the current situation, something he would normally say out loud absolutely had to be swallowed back down into his heart.

But right now, the Dread Lord really couldn't figure out Entity 303's mental state.

After coming to the Nether, the Execution Dragon had been wearing a serious face the whole time, also implicitly emphasizing many times that the situation was urgent, that Withersla wasn't easy to deal with.

The Nether's defensive measures had already been done quite well, and the Void's main battlefield wasn't even in the Nether.

But after Withersla appeared, there were already so many strengthened withers in the Nether.

It was enough to imagine how bad things were in the Overworld.

Entity 303 had said before that he would stay in the Overworld, and unless absolutely necessary, he wouldn't come to the Nether.

Naturally, the Dread Lord and the others had taken his words to heart.

At this critical moment, Entity 303 suddenly came to the Nether, and with an excited face, said something about going to the Overworld to steal kills,

It was hard not to suspect that he had been taken over by the Void.

Obviously, Entity 303's sudden arrival, plus this overly excited, outrageous statement, also left the other people present somewhat stunned.

At this moment, everyone's nerves were taut, and since they didn't know Entity 303's plan, with him coming here so rashly, everyone felt something wasn't quite right.

After Entity 303 finished speaking, the scene remained silent, everyone looked at each other, seemingly not daring to speak.
