Scorching thick smoke.

Feeble wails of agony.

And the blood-soaked labyrinth corridors!

Without a doubt—

This place was simply hell!

Looking at the sewer corridor filled with dismembered limbs, Alakdo felt a thrill of pleasure amidst his immense relief!

Luckily, I made the most most most correct decision at that time—submitting myself at the feet of Lord Demon King.

Otherwise, the fate of the dragonkind and humans today, would be that of the Weaving Shadow Nest tomorrow!

Worthy of Lord Demon King—

He was terrifyingly powerful!

"Lord Demon King, we have arrived."

Alakdo was prostrating, his voice deep and hoarse, filled with respect and humility.

Sitting atop this giant spider, Luo Yan nodded without anger but with inherent majesty, then continued to gaze steadfastly forward.

In the corridor behind him, crammed were over four hundred skeleton spider cavalry and a thousand "diggers," their creaking noises and buzzing sounds causing an earth-shattering din!

Although the group's capability in battle was questionable, they were more than sufficient as a backdrop.

As players heatedly discussed on the official website, the battle between humans and the dragonkind had ended.

Within that billowing gun smoke, only two figures remained standing.

At that moment, a swift skeleton soldier, hobbling, approached Luo Yan from not far away.

"Lord Demon King! I am your most most most loyal servant—"

"Dispense with the formalities."

Watching the clumsy and staggering skeleton soldier trying to bow, Luo Yan gestured with a handwave, skipping the unnecessary drama.

"Briefly explain the situation here."

Dragon Roaming Baili coughed awkwardly and got up from the ground, patting off the dust from his skeletal frame.

"As you command."

In about two minutes, Dragon Roaming Baili recounted the situation they stumbled upon while battling monsters.

Although Dragon Roaming Baili himself had no clue how these folks ended up fighting, Luo Yan deduced seventy to eighty percent of it by combining his descriptions with his own knowledge.

It seems that those four-legged snakes made too much noise while moving, and the surface-dwelling humans were all like startled fawns, hence the two groups ended up confusingly at each other's throats.

What Luo Yan hadn't expected, however, was the wild nature of Silver Pine Town's residents; they had brought several hundred kilograms of explosives into his labyrinth and ignited it all at once as if on a plain!

Luckily, it was just modified black gunpowder for mining, not Teint's blast magic; otherwise, it wouldn't have been just a silver-level magic, but possibly a gold-level Explosion Magic!

"Ignorance is truly frightening…"

Luo Yan sighed internally and then kicked the spider beneath him with his heel, signaling Alakdo to move forward.

In the acrid thick smoke, a man and a lizardman were nervously confronting each other, their auras tense and hostile.

When Luo Yan appeared on the battlefield, expressions of shock simultaneously crossed both their faces as they looked towards him.

"You are…"

Adela was the first to speak, breaking the silence.

Although the Earth Cave Spider was nothing pleasant, that handsome, sunlit face still inspired an unrealistic fantasy in his heart.

Maintaining prestige is part of the Demon King's self-cultivation.

Luo Yan remained silent, merely patting Alakdo's head gently, indicating for him to introduce himself.

As the first tactician of Weaving Shadow Nest, Alakdo immediately understood, straightened his body without another word, and bellowed authoritatively.

"Insolence! Kneel before Lord Demon King upon seeing him!"

Luo Yan glanced at his steed below, wanting to critique how overly forceful he was like a villain but then remembered he was indeed the antagonist, so he kept silent.

"Demon King?!"

Hearing the identity of the arrival, Adela's face paled with shock, his voice trembling uncontrollably alongside his knees, "You... you're the Demon King?!"

The Demon King had truly revived!

And he stood right before him!

His legs gave out, and he genuinely fell to his knees, his eyes filled with despair.

Unlike the opportunistic Adela, the opposite Zerick wasn't so wise.

Upon hearing Luo Yan was the Demon King, his amber eyes instantly turned blood red.

His entire lizard being roared like he was in a rage, disregarding everything as he charged towards Luo Yan.

"I'll kill you! Ahhh!!!"

The bronze aura enveloped him, swirling along the crescent blade.

Watching the charging Lizardman, Alakdo didn't wait for Luo Yan to speak, spitting out a glob of phlegm at him.

"Guh—Insolence!"

Before the words finished, sticky webs came flying with the wind.

The uncontrollable Zerick dodged nothing, the Dragon God's "Qi" energy circulating throughout his body, his dual blades sweeping like a whirlwind, directly slicing the sticky web into several pieces!

Alakdo was so frightened by this formidable foe that his spider body shuddered, almost turning tail to flee.

After all, that was a natural enemy!

If it wasn't for Lord Demon King sitting there as stable as a mountain, he would have probably slipped away already.

"Die!!!"

Only five steps away.

Zerick channeled all the strength of air into his blade and glared furiously at the Demon King.

Just as he was about to decapitate the head, a terrifying force smashed directly into his face, forcing him to raise his twin blades to block.

Clang—!

The sound of clashing metal echoed through the entire corridor of the labyrinth, and Zerick felt a pain as if his palms were tearing apart, and his bones felt numb, as if they were going to break!

His amber pupils instantly focused; he stared at the man before him. His face first showed shock, then despair, followed by an uncontrollable roar of rage.

It was Octo!

The champion warrior of the Earth Dragon clan!

The blessed one of the Dragon God!

The Demon King had desecrated not only his body but also his soul!

"Aaaaah! I'm going to kill you!" Zerick charged forward, disregarding everything, swinging his twin blades, only to be effortlessly blocked by Octo wielding a blade in one hand.

After all, the latter was the pride of the Earth Dragon clan, who in life had strength at the peak steel level.

Had it not been for the rage that clouded his mind, had it not been for a sneak attack that struck a vital spot... a seasoned warrior like him would never have lost to a bronze-level warrior.

The mere five steps distance between them was like an insurmountable chasm, no matter how hard Zerick tried, he couldn't break through!

Watching the furiously roaring Lizardman, Luo Yan rested his chin on his arms over his knees, expressionlessly watching him, as though looking down on a dying insect struggling for life.

"Is that the only line you guys have?"

No doubt.

This guy was just a pawn sent to die; he really wasn't interested in wasting words with him.

But since he provoked him this far, that High Priest hidden in the shadows... might not be able to hide any longer, right?

As he thought this, a frenzied roar of the Dragon indeed came from afar, booming towards him like a cannonball!

Having anticipated the opponent's move, Luo Yan did not hesitate to reveal the Wand hidden beneath his sleeve and cast the Spell in the shortest amount of time.

"Wall of Air!"

A translucent wall formed five yards in front of him from rapidly circulating air!

Watching the Demon King release bronze-level Magic, Morrag burst into unrestrained laughter.

"Useless! My Dragon Language Magic specializes in dealing with your half-baked elementals—"

The unrestrained laughter hadn't quite finished when the shockwave that hit the Wall of Air dissipated into nothingness.

A shocked expression froze on Morrag's face, looking as if he'd seen a ghost.

His Dragon Roar—

Was actually blocked?!

How is this possible!

Luo Yan couldn't be bothered to explain the principle to him; simply put, it was nothing more than a rapid circulating current of air creating a weak vacuum in the middle, blocking the transmission of sound waves.

Dragon Language Magic mostly dealt physical damage, and although its lethality was astonishing, it wasn't very hard to defend against as long as one knew the correct counter.

Guessing that Morrag's Magic Power was almost depleted, Luo Yan immediately ordered Bond.

"Go, Bond."

"Raaaargh..."

Bond, clutching a spear, let out a hoarse roar and charged towards Morrag.

With his Magic Power nearly gone, a trace of terror finally appeared on Morrag's face.

But he was a steel-level High Priest, after all; his powers were not limited to mere shouting.

"Giant Dragon Engine—!"

As he uttered the low chant like a dragon's roar, the muscles under his scales suddenly began to swell, and in just two breaths, he had grown larger!

Not giving him a chance to transform, Bond violently thrust his spear.

But to everyone's surprise, the lightning-fast spearhead, as if striking steel, broke into several pieces!

Bond quickly let go of the spear, backup jumping while stomping on a bayonet-rifle stuck in the ground, starting to load the black powder.

Morrag roared and charged forward, his swollen foreclaw striking like the steel plate of a roller.

If it weren't for Luo Yan casting a Spell in time, shooting a bone spear to force Morrag to change his charge direction, Bond's head would likely have exploded like a watermelon.

Abandoning the rifle, Bond continued to retreat, picking up a saber in his hand.

The fluid combat left the spectators dumbstruck; if not for their movements being restricted, they would likely have erupted in applause on the spot.

"Good heavens?!"

"A combat mage?!"

"6666!"

"This game's AI is really something!"

Yiye Zhiqu, also watching the battle, was equally captivated.

Especially after seeing the skills thrown out by the NPC, he gained a deeper understanding of the power system in "Catastrophe OL"!

Not expecting the High Priest to be so troublesome, Luo Yan no longer cared about the propriety of a duel, bluntly waving his hand and commanding.

"Dismount! Pick up the guns!"

As he spoke, he released the players from their constraints.

The skeleton soldiers immediately dismounted from their spiders and scrambled to pick up the equipment on the ground.

In just a few breaths, over 400 skeleton soldiers had armed themselves, forming about 40 skeleton gunmen.

Seeing that some players had gotten the hang of the muskets, Luo Yan didn't hesitate and pointed at the large lizard entangled with Bond, giving the order.

"Fire!"

"Blow him up!"
