Chapter 825

Millions of flies would not be able to deal with a single person. That was how strength and power worked. It would not matter how many there were, they would be helpless in front of those that were truly powerful.

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack—!

The demons and demonic beasts were more powerful than they were on earth. After all, they were on their home turf, the Demon World. However, with every lightning bolt that fell down from the sky, a huge number disappeared without a trace. Just like that, millions of lightning bolts devoured more than two million troops of the Demonic Beast Army.

Obren walked with elegance and grace, passing by the lightning bolts that continued to fall down from the sky. Of course, sending out millions of lightning bolts also consumed a huge amount of Obren’s mana.

Devil Marbas roared loudly when he saw how Obren had obliterated so many of them in one go, “Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Devil Marbas was a lion with a black mane and the most hateful power. Everything that Marbas touched with his paws would rot.

Obren stared at Marbas, who shot forward with his front paws aiming for his body. However, Marbas’ front paw stopped right before it touched Obren’s face. No matter how hard Marbas tried, he just could not move.

“All I need is to stop you from touching me, right?” Obren muttered as hundreds of Evil God’s Books aimed at Marbas and shot lightning bolts at him.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—!

Marbas burst apart without even being able to scream, turning into a tiny egg the shape of the heart just like Great Demon Verus. Obren stepped forward and tried to crush the egg, but he received a notification.

[You cannot destroy a Devil’s Egg that has started the sealing process!]

Obren smacked his lips as he began to fight against the other Devils. After fifteen minutes, the devils had all been sealed, turning into tiny eggs that spread all around him.

“...Ah.”

Master Xuanxang was once again left in awe at the majesty and greatness of the one hailed as the Evil God.

‘He’s just like...’

At one point, he even thought that Obren was an Absolute God. Perhaps the name Absolute God of Slaughter would even be fitting for him once he became an Absolute God. However, Xuanxang knew more than anybody else that Obren wanted to be a Guardian God.

Meanwhile, Obren picked up the items that the devils dropped.

[You have acquired 32,315 platinum.]

[You have acquired a fragment of Devil Baal’s Spear.]

[You have acquired the Ore Platinium.]

[You have acquired 23,513 platinum...]

[You have acquired the material: Marbas’ Mane.]

[You have acquired the Blessed Instantaneous Movement Parchment.]

[You have acquired the Demon World’s Red Pig.]

[You have acquired the Demon World’s Oily Beef.]

Including the drops that he obtained after killing the demonic beasts, he had obtained around three million platinum worth of items.

Whenever Obren picked up a cooking ingredient, a small smile would flash on his face.

“Are you going to give everything to Minhyuk?”

Obren nodded slightly. Just thinking about how happy Minhyuk would be once he received everything was enough to make him feel good.

Once he had dealt with all of the dropped items, Obren approached Verus’ egg and placed his hand on it to obtain the Absolute God’s Necklace.

Crack—

At the same time, a strange force flowed from his palms to his arms.

[Searching for the Absolute God’s Necklace inside the sealed Verus’ Egg!]

[The search will take more than eight hours!]

Obren clicked his tongue, his expression turning ugly after realizing that his right hand was stuck inside the egg for such a long period of time. Then, he clicked his tongue and pulled out a book from his inventory. As expected, the book was Aruvel’s new work, The Woman and the Magical Creaking Bed.

***

The Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army, led by the kings that fought actively during the Battle of Thrones, had looks of delight when they finally saw the fortress walls of Edea’s Allied Forces. They might have lost a lot of troops because of the turtle ships, Minhyuk’s tactics, as well as Hanwoo and the bombs, but they were still standing tall.

[Episode Quest: The Fall of Edea’s Allied Forces.]

Rank: ???

Requirements: The ones that have crossed through the passageway and have reached the vicinity of Edea’s Allied Forces

Rewards: EXP Acquisition and Artifact Drop Rate will quadruple. With every enemy killed, you might receive the Jade Emperor’s Coins. The Jade Emperor’s Coin that you receive might differ in form, depending on the strength of the opponent that you hunted.

Penalty for Failure: You will be banned from entering Edea.

Description: Heroes, who have marched through all of Edea, take over Edea and punish those who rebelled against the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army cheered. They felt like all the hardships that they had experienced so far were being washed away by the notifications that rang in their ears.

The quadruple increase in EXP Acquisition and Artifact Drop Rate was already a huge advantage. However, there were still the Jade Emperor’s Coins. There were three types of Jade Emperor’s Coins—bronze, silver and gold. Bronze coins were worth 100,000 gold in the shop while Silver was a million, and Gold was one platinum. In other words, they would be able to acquire gold just by hunting one soldier and obtaining a coin.

“Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

Loud cheers erupted from the Coalition Army.

Meanwhile, the top high rankers—Master Archer Miao, Kentaro, Valentino, Xu Jiaqi, and many more—looked ahead with firm determination on their faces. They vowed to succeed and force Edea to fall.

This battle was a completely separate matter from the matter of ethics and morality. They were players. They had to make a profit. Besides, from their point of view, this was just a quest.

Vwooooooooooooong—

The loud blare of a horn resounded from deep within Edea’s Allied Forces and signaled the start of the war. Both sides charged forward and came to a clash.

The remaining number of the Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army was around ten million or so. On the other hand, Edea’s Allied Forces only had half of that number. On top of that, the players had a huge advantage over NPCs in the form of skills.

Rumbleeeee—

Master Archer Miao shot her missile-like arrows, which turned into hundreds of arrows in the air, piercing through the soldiers standing by the fortress walls before thrusting straight into the ground.

Crackleeeee—

Then, the arrows which had struck the ground erupted in flames that devoured an area of three meters. In just an instant, flames covered the walls of the fortress.

Master Reflector Xu Jiaqi looked at the tens of thousands of magic and arrows pouring down from above the fortress.

[Reflecting Mirror.]

[The mirror compresses all of the skills and attacks together. Then, it will reflect back to the opponent right away.]

A mirror the size of a gigantic Hanwoo appeared on the battlefield. All of the arrows and magic attacks sent by Edea’s Allied Forces were sucked inside the mirror.

“...!”

“...!”

Edea’s Allied Forces looked very flustered.

Then, the next moment, the mirror shot back all of the magic attacks and arrows that it had absorbed earlier.

Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab—!

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—!

The commentators watching the scene could only sigh.

[The Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army will win the first bout!]

[The players’ extraordinary powers are pushing Edea’s Allied Forces back!]

[However, Edea’s Allied Forces are using the fortress to defend against their attacks. As long as they can maintain a proper strategy, it is possible for the battle to move in their favor!]

The walls of Edea’s fortress were suddenly crowded with the troops of the Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army.

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud—

The players banged on the fortress gates like crazy. As if answering their calls, the gates opened. However, the true Hanwoo was right behind it.

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud—

“Moooooooooooooo!!!”

This time, the Hanwoo that they were facing was completely different from the clone Hanwoos from before. Hanwoo grew to a size of fifty meters as he pawed the ground in preparation for Hanwoo’s Charge.

“Keuaaaaaaaack!”

“Uwaaaaaaack!”

“A— aaaaaaaaack!”

[With the appearance of Hanwoo’s Charge, the tide of war favors Edea’s Allied Forces once again.]

[We can roughly estimate the number of players crushed by Hanwoo’s Charge. From what I can see, it seems to be around 400,000.]

[Hanwoo is an indispensable existence when it comes to large-scale battles.]

Edea’s Allied Forces wanted to protect their lands, while the Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army came to make a profit. Both sides fought in this war with their own agendas in mind. Either way, this was a large-scale battle and it would last for quite a while.

The battle lasted for more than three days.

***

ATV Broadcasting Station’s PD Kim Daeguk could clearly see how their ratings began to drop after the battle with Edea’s Allied Forces began.

“It’s still dropping,” one of the employees muttered bitterly.

“It’s because the situation right now is not much different from what the players had expected. In the first place, the viewers only wanted to see the performances of the top high rankers. Now that they have seen how they overwhelmed Edea’s Allied Forces, most of them would leave the broadcast. Besides, if things continue like this, Edea’s fall will come sooner or later.”

The top high rankers had already revealed their presence and showed off their strength. The viewers, having seen how they wielded their AOE skills and revealed their hidden lethal skills, were already starting to leave in search of other things that could attract their attention.

“One look and it’s obvious that the overwhelming advantage belongs to the Jade Emperor Coalition Army.”

One of the reasons was the appearance of the Jade Emperor’s Envoys during the three days of non-stop battle. The envoys did not appear all at once; instead, half an hour apart from each other. Every time one showed up, they would slaughter more than 100,000 of Edea’s Allied Forces before going back. This completely wrecked Minhyuk and Edea’s Allied Forces’ tactical strategies.

There were currently nine million surviving troops of the Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army while Edea’s Allied Forces only had around two million left.

‘If there are no reversals any time soon, then they will continue on their road to their downfall.’

At first, ATV Broadcasting Station’s ratings had reached 15%. However, it then fell to around 11% now and was still continuing to fall. Just then, something special happened.

[Another being that has reached Level 600 is born to the world!]

“...!”

The one that achieved Level 600 was enough to become a huge issue in the world. Joy Co. Ltd. had announced that there would be more than fifty people that would be able to reach Level 600 within a month.

However, that announcement was made less than a month ago and no one had appeared as of yet. That was why the person that achieved Level 600 now was quite precious. On top of that, the player that reached Level 600 appeared on Edea’s battlefield.

They looked at the monitor and saw the one that achieved Level 600 using a loudspeaker to blast his voice and say...

[I have!!!]

The roar of the newly minted Level 600 player, a new powerhouse, resounded in the battlefield.

[...reached Level 600!]

The one that roared in such a spectacular fashion was none other than Italy’s God of Shields, Valentino.

Whenever a player reached Level 600, they would receive various rewards and special privileges, including stats benefits that could allow them to become 1.3x stronger than before.

“PD! Our ratings have increased to 14%!”

“The viewers are swarming in to see Valentino wield his new powers!”

However, the surprise did not end there. Another notification rang in everyone’s ears.

[Another being that has reached Level 600 is born to the world!]

“...!”

“...!”

From the broadcasting station’s point of view, this was a very welcome notification. All of the station officials looked at the monitor silently. At that moment, one of the players raised their hand. It was holding a bow.

[Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!]

[Miao! Miao! Miao! Miao!]

The one that reached Level 600 next was none other than Vietnam’s Master Archer Miao.

“The— the viewership ratings have surpassed 22%!”

“Viewers are swarming in at an alarming rate!”

It was only natural. After all, two players had achieved Level 600 at practicaly the same time. It was even on a battlefield where a lot of people were present!

For the Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army, these notifications were almost assurances of their victory. However, for Edea’s Allied Forces, they were signals of their imminent defeat.

Then, just like everyone wanted, Valentino showed off his new powers.

[God of Shield’s Cry!!!]

The monitor showed the scene of Valentino flying to the skies. Tankers were usually characters that lacked attack skills. However, that was no longer the case for Valentino. The moment he threw his square shield, it grew around fifty times its normal size and moved like a boomerang, sweeping away the troops of Edea’s Allied Forces.

Of course, Master Archer Miao could not lose to that display. She immediately showed off her new skills.

[Guided Lethal Shot!]

[Swooooooooooosh—!]

Accompanied by a loud and violent sound, an arrow shot forward and pierced through all of the enemies that blocked its path. Then, the arrow suddenly swerved and changed directions just when it was about to collide with the walls.

“...!”

The one that the arrow aimed for was none other than the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, Sun Wukong.

[Keheoooook!]

The guided shot pierced through Sun Wukong’s chest. PD Kim Daeguk could not help but groan when he saw Sun Wukong stagger.

“It— it’s an attack with a 100% success rate! The damage also seems to be incredible!”

What kind of power did they get after reaching Level 600?! Just when the thought flashed in their heads, Valentino triggered another powerful skill.

[Bentino’s Shield Wall!]

A gigantic shield appeared and protected the Jade Emperor’s Coalition Army. It was so large that it looked like a mountain, and completely prevented all of the attacks sent by Edea’s Allied Forces.

“This is crazy.”

This was PD Kim Daeguk’s honest opinion. The power might be temporary but this mountain wall-like shield was enough to thwart any attack from the enemies.

Then, at that moment, Master Archer pulled the strings of her bows once again.

“The ratings have gone over 25%!”

Master Archer Miao murmured more.

[Guided Lethal Shot!]

The arrow flew toward Sun Wukong once again!

“It— it’s a skill that can be used continuously?” PD Kim Daeguk groaned.

Everyone was appalled when they saw the arrow fly once again. They all knew that Sun Wukong would die with this arrow. But before the arrow could pierce through Sun Wukong’s heart, something unexpected happened.

Flutter—

A masked man wearing a black robe that covered his entire body flew up. At the same time, God’s Voice reverberated throughout the entire battlefield.

[Since the beginning of the world, he has always been the master of all weapons.]

PD Kim looked at the monitor in confusion.

‘Who’s this person that jumped up and stopped Master Archer Miao’s arrow? He dares to stop the arrow of someone that has reached Level 600?’

However, something very shocking happened. The man’s sword split Master Archer Miao’s arrow in half.

[Thud!]

Then, as the man stood in front of Sun Wukong, tens of thousands of weapons of all kinds, from spears to swords to iron maces and arrows, appeared and floated around him. This man was the master of all weapons.

[He is the first Eight Pillars’ Class, the Master of All Weapons.]

[I am...]

The man slowly pulled the mask covering his face to reveal his identity. It was Alexander, the Supreme of the past.

At that moment, the tens of thousands of weapons that floated around him got sucked into his sword. Alexander’s sword floated lightly before shooting toward Bentino’s Shield Wall.

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack—!

The moment it came into contact with the barrier, the power of tens of thousands of weapons ran rampant and tore apart the barrier that Valentino created. Finally, Alexander’s God’s Voice uttered the end of his words.

[...the Supreme.]

“Our ratings have exceeded 40%!!!”

The viewership ratings of ATV Broadcasting Station skyrocketed!
