Unlimited Top-ups, the Most Lavish Pay-to-win Live Streams Ever

98: Chapter 98 The Five Major Guilds VanishFu Hao had just finished his live stream, and the community was already buzzing.

Over a million viewers poured in instantly, passionately discussing the clash between the Demon King and Fu Hao, while impatiently waiting for his next ”guerrilla live stream.”

Although his recent streams were irregular and short, every time he appeared, he would pull out unexpected weapons, turning the tide at the most critical moments, which greatly increased the viewers’ trust.

Lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice, but he created miracles time and again, and by now, he had left a deep impression on the players of being someone who ”finds a way out of desperate situations.”

Even if there were naysayers in the community guessing that he might not win this time, they still couldn’t hide their anticipation deep down—they wanted to know what kind of surprise this ”oddity” would bring this time.

Leonhardt, who was traveling with Loki on a flying vehicle and browsing community information in the air, was no exception.

”Master, how much longer until we reach where Lady Aria is?”

”Two more hours.”

Loki and Leonhardt’s research lab was located at the edge of the otherworld, not to mention far from the Rowen Kingdom, and it was even more unreachable from the Demon World border where Aria was.

If they had used ordinary means of transportation, it would likely have taken several days.

But now, thanks to the artifact flying vehicle handcrafted by Loki, they could arrive in just half a day.

This time, Loki was not heading to the kingdom but straight to the Demon World border—his purpose was clear: to bring Aria to the Rowen Kingdom.

To prevent the demons from fully invading the Human Realm, Aria’s Holy Power was an indispensable and crucial force.

Unlike barriers that rely on magic power, barriers constructed with Holy Power would lose their effect as the caster moved, making them lack persistence.

For this reason, Loki developed an artifact—the ”Holy Power Sustaining Device”—allowing Aria to move freely without losing her effectiveness even when not during the Legendary Assembly.

”Fu Hao, just hold on a little longer.”

Although they had never met, Leonhardt had always been grateful to Fu Hao.

Although the other party had broken the fastest clear records he had set in multiple trial dungeons, it was precisely because of the existence of such an anomaly as Fu Hao that he resolutely gave up on Helm and chose Loki, who was more suitable for him, as his master.

Even setting that aside, Fu Hao’s actions, which broke common sense time and again, made him full of goodwill toward him, and he sincerely hoped to be of some help.

”Master, there won’t be any other Demon Kings, right?”

”Rest assured. Based on the intelligence you provided, this Demon King did not descend in its true form but infiltrated the Human Realm by possessing a host.

In this form, other Demon World entities find it difficult to cross over directly.”

Loki checked the demon detector as he spoke, and as soon as he finished, his expression changed abruptly.

”What’s wrong?”

”The Demon King’s signal... has disappeared.

Along with the other demon signals, they have all dropped to zero.”

”What?”

”Could the detector be broken?”

Loki’s artifacts were known for ”never malfunctioning unless subjected to extreme impact,” after all, they had durability maintenance magic added to them.

But the current situation was just too abnormal, and he couldn’t help but doubt his own creation.

After all, even if all the legendary-rank powerhouses, excluding himself and Aria, were gathered, without the assistance of Holy Power, it would be impossible to truly kill a Demon King.

At most, they could only force it back to the Demon World—even if it descended in a possessed state, it would never be destroyed just like that.

However, the detector’s readings were exceptionally clear: the Demon King was dead, and the demons accompanying its possession had also vanished into thin air.

This result caused Loki, for the first time in his life, to waver in his belief in the reliability of his artifacts.

— Executed Prince Mian; Achieved ’King Slayer’ achievement; Obtained title ’Regicide’; Executed the 15th Envy Demon King Pablo; Obtained passive skill ’Envy Authority’; First player to execute a Demon King; Obtained title ’First Hero’.

* Resistance to Charm and Fear status effects increased by 300%.

Type: Passive Level: Unknown * When an enemy has stats higher than your own, 40% of the stat with the greatest difference is added to your corresponding stat.

If there are multiple enemies, it only applies to the closest one.

* Obtain access to the Demon World.

* All stats +20% when executing a Demon King.

Perhaps thanks to the new Saintess Serina’s full set of +10 reinforced equipment, Fu Hao’s party proceeded with an unreal level of smoothness.

After using the Mysterious Mask to disguise themselves as demons and approach the Demon King, they encountered almost no obstacles and easily completed the execution.

For Fu Hao, who had expected a bitter battle, this result was almost too smooth, smooth enough to make his heart skip a beat, but fortunately, he finally fulfilled his wish of participating in the killing of the Demon King, which was a weight off his mind.

”Master, Lord Calus, Lady Serina... did any good items drop?”

With the help of Serina’s Holy Power, Fu Hao had also dealt damage to the Demon King—although the damage number was so small it was like a joke, he had at least participated in the battle.

But he didn’t even get a single drop, and he didn’t even touch the experience points.

However, he didn’t care, as he had already agreed on the ownership of items with the three of them.

Moreover, if it weren’t for his +10 reinforced equipment, this battle could not have proceeded smoothly—his role was indispensable.

To take a step back, the cost invested in the equipment should also have a return.

But when he looked at the three of them, he found that Helm, Calus, and Serina were all breaking out in cold sweat, their eyes darting away.

Fu Hao mistakenly thought they didn’t want to give him the items: ”Hey... didn’t we agree that all drops would go to me?”

”...”

”I invested quite a lot, are you really going to do this?”

”...”

”Sigh, then giving me half is fine, okay?”

”...”

The three remained silent, and only then did Fu Hao realize something was wrong: ”...Nothing dropped?”

Helm hesitated for a moment, then nodded with difficulty.

”As expected, it’s because of the soul body...”

Fu Hao cursed the operations team of the otherworld and the R&D team responsible for the AI in his heart no less than a hundred times before he could barely suppress his anger.

Fortunately, he could earn revenue from uploading the video of the Demon King’s execution, so he swallowed his anger for the time being.

This time he didn’t choose to live stream, but recorded the complete footage intending to upload it later—after all, when facing a Demon King, there were too many uncertain factors, and he couldn’t take risks.

”Let’s head back to the territory first...”

Since Teleportation was prohibited in the Royal Capital, Fu Hao took out the Mysterious Mask that copied the appearance of a commoner NPC to prepare to transform, but his movements suddenly froze—would the soul of a Demon King, an existence that required the siege of many of The Seven Legends, remain after death?

He immediately took out the cursed glasses with the soul-viewing function and put them on.

Sure enough, a blurry spirit body was curled up on the spot, and although its form could not be identified, it had not completely dissipated.

”Let’s seal the soul into a soul stone first to see if it’s the Demon King.”

Fearing the soul would escape, Fu Hao hurriedly took out a soul stone and sealed the visible spirit body inside.

’Pablo’s Soul’ has been stored in the soul stone.

- Rank: Mythical Description: The soul of the Envy Demon King Pablo.

Due to Holy Power, it has lost all its power, leaving only an empty shell.

If the lost power is recovered, it can be restored to its original form.

Seeing this information, Fu Hao clenched his fists.

Soul Enhancement could not rely on the Mimic’s ”Fates Luck”; it could only rely on Fu Hao’s own ”Fates Luck”.

In this situation, a Mythical Rank soul that could reinforce the Emperor to +1 without needing Fates Luck was a godsend for Fu Hao.

”If things go smoothly, before facing Leonhardt, I might be able to push both Little Gold and the Emperor to +10.”

As long as these two are achieved, no matter what trump cards Leonhardt pulls out, there is nothing to fear.

The next day, members of the Five Great Guilds logged in one after another.

After being defeated twice in a row, they had just finished their death penalties, and as soon as they logged in, they started complaining.

”That lunatic actually relied on connections to kill the Demon King...”

Allen cursed through gritted teeth, only then realizing that the surrounding scenery was completely unfamiliar.

”Where is this?”

He looked around, and not only himself, but his companions were also looking bewildered, not knowing where they were.

”The Demon King is dead, why are we still in a demonized state?”

Just as everyone was puzzled, a member pointed tremblingly at the sky—it was a familiar and chilling red moon, silently hanging high in the sky; it was clearly the same red moon they had seen in the Legendary Assembly dungeon.

”...The Demon World?”

Allen said the answer with a trembling voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, a system notification window popped up in front of all guild members: - [Due to death in a demonized state, you have resurrected in the Demon World.] - [You will permanently maintain the demonized state in the Demon World.]

The guild members reacted differently: some collapsed because they had to give up all their accumulations in the Human Realm; others, like Philip, viewed the Demon World as a brand-new stage and had their fighting spirit reignited.

Pegasus belonged to the former.

He didn’t care about the loss of his class or skills, and even thought that from a growth perspective, falling into the Demon World was actually a ”blessing.”

Until he saw another notification: - [Demon players cannot be included in the combat power ranking; combat power ranking records have been deleted.] - [Because the maintenance conditions are not met, the title ”pioneer” has been deleted.]

”My combat power ranking...”

He looked at his combat power record, which he had worked so hard to raise to fourth place, being ruthlessly deleted, and his face instantly turned as pale as ash.
