Recently, something happened on the European server's forum that caused a heated discussion among many players.
It was caused by a post made by a player on the forum.
[Help! I was killed by the Evil King four times, a total of four times. Have any of you experienced the same thing? I'm still the only one. I'm going to faint from crying!] OP: It's noon, McRae.
(Attached is a screenshot of the kill)
Content: …
After being killed by the Evil King four times in a row, McRae almost had a mental breakdown.
He felt that he was rather well-behaved in the game and had never offended anyone. On the battlefield, he even killed his enemies fearlessly for soul coins. Why was he targeted by the Evil King now?
Unable to figure it out, McRae could only seek help from the players on the forum. After all, the Evil King was their boss now. With his abilities, there was no way he could deal with him.
The players on the forum were shocked to see what happened to McRae. They began to ask him what had happened and even questioned if he had done anything to offend the Evil King.
In the face of the players' doubts, McRae repeatedly promised that he had never done anything out of line. He even specifically explained his daily schedule.
McRae's assurance made many players start to believe what he said.
However, the players had also come into contact with the Evil King. Although they did not know him well, they were aware of his personality.
The Player Clan could be said to be the most important subordinate force to the Evil King. Therefore, the Evil King's killing of McRae was a little unusual to the players. For a moment, the players made all sorts of speculations. Some players even brought up the conspiracy theory of the Evil King. In short, the European server's forum was in an uproar.
Naturally, this matter also attracted Li Xing's attention.
At this time, Li Xing's friend list was jumping with many messages, basically asking him what was going on.
As Li Xing was the "Player Clan Leader" who was directly connected to the Evil King, he was the only one who could handle this matter.
After thinking for a moment, Li Xing decided to go to the ruins to ask the Evil King.
Three hours later, Li Xing's figure appeared in the ruins.
His arrival attracted the attention of the guards, who immediately stepped forward to stop Li Xing. However, after seeing Li Xing's appearance through the bonfire at the side, the guards consciously retreated and even bowed their heads respectfully to Li Xing.
After several battles with Yuanxu's army, the Player Clan had also won their respect. As Li Xing was the clan leader of the Player Clan and the most valued subordinate of the Evil King, they naturally did not dare to neglect him.
After Li Xing nodded slightly, he walked past the four guards and headed to the center of the ruins where the Evil King was.
It was unknown when the ruins in the central area had been built. Towering stone pillars surrounded a palace. Because these stone pillars had been weathered, it looked like the entire palace would collapse at any time.
Li Xing stepped into the ruins of the palace, glanced around, and said, "I'm not sure if I'll be able to find you.
"Boss Xie Wang, I'm coming!" After saying that, Li Xing waited.
A moment later, the surroundings were filled with a black, evil wind. The figure of the Evil King gradually condensed in the stone hall. From blurry to clear, he appeared in front of Li Xing.
"Why are you looking for me, Li Xing?" Diablo looked at Li Xing and asked with a faint smile.
Seeing the Evil King, Li Xing also felt a headache. However, it was better to clarify this matter, so he said,
"Boss, what's going on lately? Did my clansmen offend you in any way? "
Although that was what Li Xing said, the meaning behind his words was clear. He was asking why the Evil King wanted to kill McRae.
Upon hearing this, the Evil King was silent for a moment.
Then, he said slowly, "To be honest, ever since you guys pledged your loyalty to me, I have never doubted your loyalty. In fact, you guys have proven your loyalty. However, there are a few things that I don't understand!"
Li Xing frowned slightly.
"Boss, what are your doubts? Is it related to this matter?"
The Evil King nodded, "I clearly remember that you once told me that the Player Clan's talent is to resurrect three times at the altar, right?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xing's heart tightened. He already understood why the Evil King would do that.
"I never doubted it before, but the increase in the number of the Player Clan is indeed abnormal. I didn't pay attention to it before, but after paying attention, I realized that after every war with Yuanxu, the number of the Player Clan has never decreased. Instead, it has been increasing!"
"This is the first point, the problem of the number of your clansmen. Perhaps you can tell me that the Player Clan has a particularly strong reproductive ability, and I can accept that point of view. Then, let me talk about the second point, the problem of the strength of the Player Clan! Due to the problem of the number of clansmen, I noticed something when I began to secretly investigate the Player Clan. I found that the strength of your clansmen seems to be constantly increasing, and it's an all-round improvement. This can be seen from the few wars with Yuanxu's army! "
"Apart from strength, I also noticed that although the Player Clan was fearless in battle at first, your ability to adapt to war was not strong. I even saw your clansmen vomiting because of the discomfort after a battle. This behavior is more like that of a newbie on the battlefield, and not the behavior of a clan that has long been accustomed to war."
"At that time, I didn't investigate further, but this discomfort gradually decreased as the number of wars increased. It seems that the Player Clan has adapted to war. This is a little strange. Logically speaking, the Player Clan should have experienced countless battles after existing in this region for so long. Why are you just starting to adapt to war now?"
"This is the second point, the problem of the improvement of the strength of your clansmen and their performance in battle …"
With that, the Evil King smiled faintly and stared at Li Xing.
"Do you have anything to explain about these two points?"
Li Xing didn't answer, but his heart was pounding. Although he knew that the Evil King would find out, he didn't expect it to be so soon. He already had a premonition of what was going to happen next.
Seeing that Li Xing was silent, the Evil King smiled again and said,
"The third point is what you personally admitted to me back then. Every Player Clan has three chances to resurrect!"
"There are too many suspicious points that made me doubt the authenticity of the so-called three resurrections. So, I found a player to conduct an experiment. This is also the answer you want. Why did I kill your clansmen!"
At this time, Li Xing finally understood why the Evil King attacked McCray for no reason. Obviously, McCray was unlucky enough to become the Evil King's experimental target.
At this time, the Evil King continued, "Do you still remember the first battle between you and Yuanxu's army? At that time, your entire army was wiped out. Logically speaking, every member of the Player Clan should have lost one chance to resurrect. So, when I killed him for the second time and saw him resurrect, I was already suspicious. But I believed in you, and I trusted you very much. So, I continued this experiment and killed him four times …"
After finishing, the Evil King looked at Li Xing and smiled.
"Li Xing, you've let me down. In order to nurture you, I once gave you many treasures left behind by the Evil God and taught you many combat skills. Although you are my subordinates, I, the Evil King, believe that I have never let you down!"
"Yes! I, the Evil King, am only a wisp of evil thoughts. I don't have a real body and am different from you. But I am very happy to be with you because I realized that my emotions are getting richer and richer. So, I am very grateful to the Player Clan! "The Evil King paused." Especially you, Li Xing! Compared to subordinates, I think calling us friends is more suitable for our relationship. But why did you lie to me? Can you give me an explanation? "
"Do you know, when I came up with these conclusions, I didn't look for you, nor did I do anything drastic. I was waiting for the day when you truly acknowledge me as the Evil King and tell me the truth! But now that you've come to me, I don't mind telling you the answer! "
Looking at the Evil King whose eyes were glowing fiercely, Li Xing had mixed feelings.
Just as the Evil King said, he had never let the Player Clan down, but they had always been using the Evil King. This made Li Xing feel a little guilty.
He still remembered clearly that the Evil King once said to him in a casual conversation that he never cared about being an Abyssal Prefect, let alone the life and death of others. The reason why he wanted to defeat Yuanxu and become the Abyssal Prefect was just to find something exciting to do.
Just as the Evil King said, he was just a wisp of evil thoughts. He didn't have any complicated emotions, so what he liked to do the most was to let himself be like those living creatures, to have emotional fluctuations.
Fighting with Yuanxu for the position of His Excellency was just something that the Evil King did to pursue excitement.
The Evil King also said that he admired the Player Clan because the Player Clan's desperate battle with Yuanxu's army in the Demonic Realm ignited his hot-blooded emotions that he had never felt before.
The Evil King also promised him that even if he, Li Xing, died one day, he would protect the Player Clan and continue to exist.
The Evil King even said that if he really won the position of His Excellency one day, he might let the descendants of the Player Clan inherit the position.
Li Xing had always seen the Evil King's sincerity towards the Player Clan, so he didn't know how to explain the Evil King's words. He didn't even know how to face the Evil King.
The Evil King just looked at the silent Li Xing, waiting for his reply. Li Xing stood there with a complicated expression and didn't speak for a long time.
"Go back. It's not too late to tell me when you've thought it through. I've said it before, I, the Evil King, have always believed in you!"
Hearing this, Li Xing's body trembled and he looked at the Evil King in disbelief.
"The next time you come, come up with a better reason. At least it can fool me!" the Evil King said again.
"You … you've forgiven me?" Li Xing stuttered.
"I've said that I've always believed in you, and you've always called me Boss. I, the Evil King, acknowledge that. Although you lied to me, your Player Clan has never betrayed me, so there's nothing to forgive or not …"
Although the Evil King had lived for millions of years, his emotions weren't even as rich as an ordinary person's. However, after interacting with the Player Clan, the Evil King realized that his emotions were getting richer. Therefore, in his eyes, the Player Clan was a completely different existence from the other subordinate forces.
Although the Evil King's eyes revealed a murderous glint when he said this, Li Xing could still see a trace of disappointment and unwillingness in his eyes.
At this moment, the Evil King was like a child who had just made a good friend. After gradually interacting with his good friend, he realized that he was the only one who was sincere while his so-called good friend had been hiding things from him.
Although the truth made him angry and sad, he still didn't want to lose his friend and the Player Clan, Li Xing.
"Boss …" Looking at the Evil King, Li Xing's expression was complicated. He wanted to say something, but he held back.
Whether to tell the Evil King the secret of the Player Clan wasn't something he could decide alone. Although he was the "Leader of the Player Clan", he couldn't represent the players.
"If you haven't decided, go back first. Think about how to make up this flawless story!" the Evil King said impatiently.
However, Li Xing realized that the Evil King's eyes were filled with anticipation when he spoke, but it turned into disappointment in the end.
"Boss, I'll tell you when the time is right. You said that you've never let down our Player Clan, and I, Li Xing, promise you that I'll always treat you as my boss, and I'll never let you down!"
After saying this, Li Xing turned around and left.
Looking at Li Xing's back, the murderous glint in the Evil King's eyes faded, and there was only gratification in his eyes.
In fact, he didn't want to hear any explanation, nor did he want to hear any lies. Although Li Xing didn't say anything, the Evil King was still very gratified. At least Li Xing didn't lie to him.
Especially when Li Xing said the last sentence before he left, the Evil King could feel the sincerity in Li Xing's emotional fluctuations. To the Evil King, these words and the sincerity were the best guarantee.
Although his curiosity hadn't been satisfied, the races that could survive in the Underworld would more or less have their own secrets. Although he was curious about the Player Clan's secret, he didn't want to know about it now.
Not long after Li Xing left, the Evil King's figure also disappeared.
At this time, under the moonlight, a ghostly figure came from the outside world. He quietly avoided the guards and entered the stone pillar palace.
Naturally, his appearance couldn't be hidden from the Evil King. At this time, the Evil King's figure gradually condensed along with the appearance of the black wind and appeared behind the ghostly figure. Then, he raised his hand and slapped it down.
Circles of ripples appeared on the ghostly figure's body after being hit by the Evil King's palm. The Evil King's figure floated forward like a feather and slowly landed on the ground.
"Who is it!" the Evil King said coldly as he looked at the figure.
"Evil King, let's have a chat?" the blurry ghostly figure said with a smile.
"Sneaky. I think it's better if I kill you, then extract your soul and have a chat with it!" The Evil King's lips curled up. In a flash, he appeared in front of the ghostly figure. He suddenly slapped his right hand down, and suddenly, a violent wind formed and swept forward.
Facing the Evil King's tearing wind, the ghostly figure obviously couldn't withstand it anymore and suddenly collapsed on the spot.
At this time, the Evil King stretched out his hand toward the area where the ghostly figure collapsed, trying to grab the person's soul. However, to the Evil King's surprise, no soul was grabbed.
"Evil King, this is the first time we've met. This isn't a good idea!" At some point, the ghostly figure appeared behind the Evil King.
"Not bad!"
The Evil King snorted coldly. He turned around and was about to attack again, but he saw the ghostly figure suddenly take a step back. After that, the shadow on the surface of the figure dissipated, revealing the real body.
Looking at the child with long white hair, the Evil King couldn't help but be stunned. However, he didn't let down his guard.
"Who are you, little brat?"
Cangxu, who was smiling and had an unfathomable attitude, instantly pulled a long face when he heard this.
