Chapter 388: Chapter 375: Deal? Deal! (2nd Update) Chapter 388: Chapter 375: Deal? Deal! (2nd Update) “I suspect many of you gods have tried… to draw power from the Mother Crystal of Black Tide Island? Or perhaps, your higher gods have all attempted?” The Matron said with a hint of mockery as she looked towards the gods working within the vibrating nuclear stronghold.

“What are you implying, you little runt? And what about the spirit! What exactly happened to Lao?”

The God of Casting, known for his explosive temper, stood up and confronted the Matron directly.

“Her higher god absorbed the power of the Mother Crystal from Black Tide Island and has now become part of Black Tide Island. She is also gradually being assimilated by Black Tide Island,” said the Matron in a solemn voice. “I fear many of you will share this fate.”

“I think you can heal her,” whispered Queen Mei from behind the Matron, lowering her voice.

Even though Queen Mei spoke softly, Wenna, who served as her guardian, heard every word clearly.

“Matron!” Wenna knew the Matron no longer had much power… to help others sever their connection with Black Tide Island.

“I know I shouldn’t waste my power on such trivial matters, but this is our capital for surviving here. In the words of the spirits, it’s like being a useful ‘NPC.'”

The Matron was smart; during this period, she observed and learned much from the spirits, including how to be a popular NPC.

The first step was to have some unique functions, for example…

The Matron’s hand touched the flesh on the Beauty’s neck, and as the Matron’s life value drastically dropped, so did the Beauty’s screams of pain… The flesh clump on her neck cracked into debris in an instant, and the Beauty’s breathing gradually stabilized.

When the healing was over, the Matron had just over two thousand life points left, a life-threateningly low level for her.

Can Xin wanted to question the Matron further at this time, but Wenna, considering safety, carried the now fainting Matron away from the vibrating nuclear stronghold.

She held the Matron and went straight into the Crystal Forest. Mo Shigui wanted to send thieves or assassin players after Wenna, but the disturbance inside the stronghold forced him to focus on… placating the part-time gods inside.

Wenna carried the unconscious Matron away from the vibrating nuclear stronghold, only stopping when the traces of surrounding players thinned out, then turned to face the following Queen Mei.

“Did you bring us to this island just for this?” Wenna asked, staring intently at Queen Mei in the distance, who wore a tri-flowered headgear.

“Uh, to be more precise, I sought you out for the Magic Thieves on Black Tide Island.”

Jiang Qiao’s voice came from behind Queen Mei. Jiang Qiao had wanted to disguise the Matron as a deity temporarily living in the nuclear stronghold.

Unfortunately, plans cannot keep up with changes… Given the Matron’s current condition, a mere touch from any spirit could kill her on the spot.

“Black Tide Island’s Magic Thieves are only loyal to the island itself, and few care about who the incarnation of Black Tide Island is,” the Matron, now awake, said weakly to Jiang Qiao, “There are not many like Wenna, loyal to me, and with my current state, severing a minor god’s feeble connection with Black Tide Island is already my limit unless… you feed me your sister.”

“I don’t plan to win them over. I want to know where their true bodies are… or their souls. Or, to put it more bluntly, rip their souls out from where they’re stored?”

Jiang Qiao knew that the most troublesome part of the upcoming battle on Black Tide Island would be… those Magic Thieves who also couldn’t be killed, for no matter how many times they were slain, their bodies would be reshaped by the abyss.

This was what Jiang Qiao found most troublesome at this stage. He had thought of two methods to completely kill the Magic Thieves of Black Tide Island.

One was to directly find the location where their souls were stored, the other was to sever their connection with Black Tide Island.

Our mother could do both.

“Black Tide Island is everything to me, my home. Do you think I would destroy everything I created in the past by my own hand?” The Island Master slightly opened her pupils and stared at Jiang Qiao.

But her weak yet threatening words were choked back by a Crystal Deer that appeared out of nowhere.

The Crystal Deer stretched out its tongue to lick the Island Master’s cheek; the energy transferred from the Crystal Deer made it easier for the breathless Island Master to breathe.

“Biland Island seems quite fond of you. Still, why don’t you try to find a new home?” said Jiang Qiao, pointing at the Crystal Deer.

Jiang Qiao needed an Island Master who could completely control Biland Island. Currently, it was the Apocalypse Dragon, but now the Apocalypse Dragon was merely a dragon egg, and it had no self-consciousness!

This led to wild growth in the development of Biland Island, as the monster spawning on the island was random. They didn’t follow Jiang Qiao’s commands at all.

If Jiang Qiao could have an Island Master with self-consciousness, at least he would be able to control the monster spawning aspect well.

“Yelena… I remember that child is called that. She’s a very promising Island Master. All you need to do is let her awaken,” said the Island Master.

“She chose to follow a Holy Spirit to learn the way of qi. I respect her choice,” Jiang Qiao said seriously.

“A god actually cares about the choices of his servants? This Devouring God is truly strange.”

“Don’t change the subject. Are you choosing to continue to live in this weak state, or would you move and become the Island Master of Biland Island? I’m not very patient right now.”

Jiang Qiao was also busy planning the offensive activities against Black Tide Island and didn’t have time to quibble with the Island Master here.

“Aren’t you afraid that after I take complete control of Biland Island… I might choose to betray you?”

The Island Master, somewhat annoyed by the licking from the Crystal Deer beside her, struggled to free herself from Wenna’s embrace and stood up, pushing the deer’s head away with her hand.

“We have never been allies from the beginning, and we won’t be in the future. The only prerequisite for you to become the Island Master of Biland Island is…” Jiang Qiao’s hand ignited with a ghostly blue flame, and he extended his hand in a gesture to shake hands with the Island Master, “become my servant, uh, also possibly a public servant for the players.”

“A contract to sell body and soul, you’re asking a price that’s comparable to a demon,” the Island Master commented at once upon recognizing what the ghastly blue flame represented. But after a moment of silence, she continued to ask, “But do you plan to let Biland Island devour Black Tide Island?”

“That’s the future goal of the Holy Spirits.”

Jiang Qiao was certain that the upcoming war was in fact… a battle of mutual devouring between two beings of chaos; it would come down to whether the players’ appetites were bigger or the Magic Thieves’ appetites were.

“Island Master!” Wenna saw the tempted expression on the Island Master’s face and wanted to reach out to stop her but it was already too late.

“Revenge… has always been the tradition of Black Tide Island, at any cost. It’s a deal,” the Island Master said.

The Island Master directly grasped Jiang Qiao’s hand that was burning with ghastly blue flame. Instantly, the ghostly blue flame spread all over the Island Master’s body; the scorching flame devoured her soul and body completely, claiming them for the Devouring God.
