It like the Gods are fighting.
Countless players at the plaza could only describe the scene with these words.
The NPCs here possessed unfathomable power.
Never before had Lv??? characters roamed the streets in such numbers.
【Lv??? Unholda Kaiser】
【Lv??? Knight of the Far Lands】x3
【Lv??? ab?!#$%^^^^!】
And also, the recently destroyed Artificial Apocalypse God.
The destructive power of each attack could instantly kill a player.
If they were to battle with each other, the only outcome for the mere insects like them would be one thing.
Death.
Many spectators watching this live were utterly shocked.
[ ? ? ? DMG? You manage to do all this, but for nearly 2 years, you haven't given us any storyline? ]
[ Damn, the plot is insanely intense. ]
[Earlier, someone mentioned that the Knight was called Alex and used purple lightning. Could he be the Alexander Guinness mentioned in the ancient texts?]
[Wow, you actually play games just to go to the library and read books, don't you?]
[Damn!!! I want to know more, I want to know more!]
[Hold on! I'll compile everything and post it on the forums tomorrow! Everything that's happened so far has a storyline!]
For the players, this was all an unexpected event.
Though rare, there were a few instances before when the Knight of the Far Lands appeared and were broadcasted live.
Usually, DMG would request the removal of those videos.
But this time, it was hard to cover up. This event happened right in Qiu Yu City.
Alex couldn't believe his eyes at that moment.
That full-force strike, powerful enough to fatally injure even a Demon God.
Yet this guy didn't have a speck of dust on him.
Just how strong was he really?
The other two Knights were also stunned.
What unfolded before them was truly hard to believe.
"Can we... actually defeat them?"Inside, The Villain was sweating profusely.
"Damn it, I thought I was dead for sure. System, don't scare me like that again."
*beep*【The System Absolutely Does Not Deceive the Host.】*beep*
Damn you!
I'm drenched in sweat!
If that attack had hit, I would have been dead for sure!!!
The Villain.
Schurke.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
His real name is Minh Nhat.
He's been transported into the First World for who knows how long.
He activated the Villain System - Contract Demon.
The more he makes deals with powerful entities, the stronger he becomes.
And the more villainous points he accumulates, the more rewards he can unlock from the system.
He has experienced many things along with this world throughout his existence here.
His consciousness enters a "Hibernation" state shortly after a Villain event is completed.
He can "purchase" additional time before hibernation with rewards from the system.
During this "hibernation," he can buy, sell, and trade with the System.
Recently, Schurke realized something.
The world he has been transported into starting to has players!
The naming conventions are indescribably stupid, game terminology, even names of famous people from his old world.
There's no mistaking it!
However...? They're not from the same era as him?
Schurke tried asking a player what year it was, and it was far removed from the year he originally transported!
Such a long time has passed.
But specifically, if he says anything about his transportation or finding a way back to Earth,
or even things related to Earth that only an outsider would know,
his words would be encrypted, incomprehensible to people.
It's this System that prevents him from interacting with the players!
【If you wish to speak with outsiders, please purchase the [Foreigner Language Pack]】
Oh, and that language pack is the most expensive item in your Shop.
Damn it!
Schurke has been the unrivaled existence in the First World for millennia! But now he can only focus on earning points to find a way back!
【Deal with Count Lucas is in progress.】
【Completion Reward: 1000 Villain Points.】
Schurke was cursing profusely in his mind.
This system is a massive pitfall for him.
【A Villain Must Always Have a Weakness】
【Passive Skill. After a Deal is Completed, it forces the user to immediately take action. During those few seconds, the host will lose all powers. Create an opportunity to defeat The Villain】
?
Can't I just be undefeated?
You've directly placed a fatal Achilles' heel on me like that?
If only Emperor Alex had cast his spell a bit faster, there's a chance I would have died instantly.
And if I die, it's permanent! No rebirth!
Oh mother. Seeing that purple light shooting at me, I thought I was seeing the afterlife!
Schurke swallowed hard.
I must keep the act going.
"Knight of the Far Lands, is this all you have?"
"Are these the heroes of justice? Can't even touch a hair on me?"
Alex gritted his teeth.
"Aldo! Liv! Join the fight!"
A series of notifications appeared that only Schurke could see at the moment.
【Please Choose the Expected Outcome】
【Overwhelming Victory: 100 Villain Points】
【Even Match: 500 Villain Points】
【??? : 1000 Villain Points】
【Defeated: Death】
A familiar interface for Schurke.
This System loves drama the most.
If The Villain wins too easily, the points gained are very few.
If the battle is intense, the points will be higher.If defeated, only death awaits.
And that ??? is the Hidden Outcome.
Schurke must rely on improvisation to score it.
Right now, the safest option is to fight on equal footing.
Schurke's current power level has been assessed as Lv999 by outsiders.
Defeating the Knight of the Far Lands is not difficult.
However, there are many debuffs that Schurke can apply to himself.
For each self-imposed debuff, Schurke earns more points.
【Power Limit - Reduce own level to lv 666/777/888, earn 300/200/100 Villain Points respectively.】
【Knife Room - Only use melee attacks, earn 100 points.】
【Deadly Weakness - Reveal own weakness to the enemy, earn 300 points.】
【Give You a Chance: Accept all debuffs, earn 100 points.】
Schurke sighed inwardly.
"Accept all. Limit power to 777."
The Knights of the Far Lands have an average level around 600.
666 would be too risky.
Especially when taking on the other two tasks.
Let the performance continue.Schurke smiled and continued walking.
"I'm giving you a chance."
*Click*
"That's..!" Alex was startled.
"You recognize it, don't you? Yes, it's the 【Immortal Binding】."
An equipment item that limits the wearer's power.
"Now my strength is only at the level of the Demon Emperor."
"On par with you all."
Schurke pointed to his right eye.
"And here, is my weakness."
"If you hit it, my entire body will be paralyzed, my health will continuously decrease, and a barrage of negative effects will fall upon me."
"You just need to hit it. I swear upon the Heavenly Path."
Nightingale, Giovanni, Lucas, and all three Knights of the Far Lands were startled.
Swear upon the Heavenly Path?
A vow made before the Heavenly Path must be true; otherwise, all one's power would be completely seized by the Heavenly Path.
This is the most unbreakable vow.
What does this mean?
At DMG, everyone was also taken aback.
The Villain is revealing all his weaknesses?
"You... Why are you doing this?" Alex was utterly perplexed.
"Why, you ask? Hmmmm."
He pretended to ponder, bringing his hand to his chin in thought.Then his devilish smile appeared once more, his neck tilting to an impossibly unnatural degree.
"For fun."
"To give you all a chance."
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have the will to fight."
Mockery.
The Villain was truly just mocking them.

Minh Nhat aka Schurke aka The Villain: damn, damn, damn, damn your mother, System.
