Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

”Those things, once I become the Demon King, I will naturally know them!”

The Demon King’s blood volume was approaching twenty percent. Despite feeling uneasy and apprehensive, Gao Yuanyi swung his massive mechanical arm forward.

[Laplace] was something Gao Yuanyi discovered in ancient ruins, and before obtaining the [Core of Victory Drive], it was equipment far beyond legendary equipment, with attributes double those of ordinary legendary equipment.

After acquiring the [Core of Victory Drive], [Laplace] underwent a dramatic transformation in functionality, with a substantial increase in attribute boosts.

The current [Laplace] not only provides Gao Yuanyi with a 15% boost to all attributes and an additional 20% strength, but also offers a 40% critical hit during normal attacks.

The Demon King has a defense as high as 7000, but an attack with Laplace can still inflict quite remarkable damage.

Using the skills commonly found in action games, Gao Yuanyi simultaneously unleashed skills and performed normal attacks, not only making the attacks smoother but also greatly increasing the output.

Since the opponent invited him to bring it on, Gao Yuanyi certainly wouldn’t be polite.

From the moment he launched the attack, there was no turning back for him.

Even if he fled now, he’d definitely end up on the Demon King’s wanted list, becoming a public enemy in the Demon World, leading a life of constant hiding with the threat of death at any moment.

In such a case, he might as well fight with full force to drag the Demon King down from the throne, as he initially envisioned.

Accompanied by the magic bombs launched from the war chariot, Gao Yuanyi wielded [Laplace] repeatedly, striking the Demon King’s sturdy armor, creating silver sparks upon impact.

Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand, forty thousand...

Gao Yuanyi spared no effort, forcing the Demon King’s blood bar down to only 10% remaining.

Beneath the black helmet, a purple light flickered, and the Demon King’s whispers gradually crept into Gao Yuanyi’s ears:

”As I expected, you know nothing and came to challenge me.

If you really knew something, you wouldn’t be foolish enough to challenge me.

Do you think you can defeat the Demon King just because someone from another world could?

How naive.

The Demon King who attacked the other world, especially a world with low magic power, failed for extremely deep reasons.

Everything is about to end.

Their legacy, their experience, I shall inherit.

What I want to tell you is...

In this world, once someone successfully accepts the Devil King’s Power and becomes the Demon King,

The Demon King will never lose.”

Gao Yuanyi was deaf to the Demon King’s words. He believed that in this world, there is no enemy that cannot be defeated.

As long as there is a blood bar, as long as there are attributes, even a god can be killed.

”Invincible? That’s merely a beautiful legend.”

A golden light flashed in his eyes, Gao Yuanyi unleashed [Breaking Cauldrons and Sinking Boats], significantly boosting his strength, and the inner side of Laplace lit up with a green square,

”[Death Burst]!”

[Death Burst] can deal physical damage equivalent to 1000% of the user’s strength to a single target. In the previous battle, Gao Yuanyi had fully stacked passive layers of [War Addict] and [Fierce Battle Spirit], gaining considerable strength.

Although Gao Yuanyi’s strength hadn’t reached the theoretical maximum value, this was enough.

If this move hits, even without a second [Death Burst], the outcome can be determined.

[Laplace] roared loudly, and the entire mechanical arm lit up with red squares, which danced around on the mechanical arm to form a red indicator arrow.

Gao Yuanyi’s entire mechanical arm was engulfed in a red light, transforming into a missile, and heading straight for the Demon King.

The Demon King remained motionless.

With a ”dong,” the giant mechanical arm smashed into the Demon King’s body, releasing a violent red shock wave where the mechanical arm met the black armor, splitting the snowy ground, dispersing all incoming magic light, and extending to nearby icebergs, instantly slicing the iceberg in half.

With a rumbling loud noise, the iceberg collapsed, colliding with surrounding icebergs, and turned into countless ice fragments.

The Demon King remained still, the purple light flickering beneath the black helmet.

Gao Yuanyi looked up, the Demon King’s originally empty blood bar unexpectedly filled with white.

It was a shield.

The Demon King relied on the shield to firmly withstand Gao Yuanyi’s strike.

Gao Yuanyi’s system simultaneously observed the opponent’s shield value while viewing the life value. The Demon King had less than 10% blood left, but the shield value on him was as high as 6 million, three times his maximum blood volume.

Isn’t this too damn exaggerated?

[Corrosive Rust] can prohibit the use of recovery tools and skills, but couldn’t prevent others from using shields.

Most shield-type skills disappear automatically after a while, but Gao Yuanyi didn’t have the time to wait for this shield to vanish.

Luckily, [Laplace] had a skill to solve the shield.

The seventh green square lit up on the inner side of the mechanical arm, and the red arrow quickly faded, turning into numerous streaming white stripes. Gao Yuanyi pulled back the mechanical arm, while the ordinary arm released [Shadow Ghost Claw]. A gigantic ghost hand surged from the ground towards the Demon King, pinning him in place, and afterwards, Gao Yuanyi lunged a charging fist, the giant mechanical arm once again smashed towards the Demon King,

”[Shield Overload]!”

[Shield Overload], as the name suggests, can cause the enemy’s shield to overload, rendering it completely useless, and inflicting damage equal to 10% of the shield value.

The Demon King’s shield value is 6 million, so 10% amounts to 60 thousand damage. If this move hits, the outcome can be determined.

Faced with Gao Yuanyi’s aggressive attack, the Demon King had his first defensive movement.

He extended a hand.

Gao Yuanyi’s giant mechanical arm approached, and without dodging, the Demon King easily intercepted Gao Yuanyi’s incoming massive mechanical fist.

Calmly, the Demon King spoke:

”This move won’t work.

Tell me, how can you see that I used the skill to block damage?

It’s a capability granted by the Demon King armor.

I have fused with the Demon King armor; using its power is like moving a limb, producing no magic fluctuation, which ordinary people wouldn’t notice.

This situation can only be explained in one way...”

The white light flickering on [Laplace] spread through the Demon King’s arm to the surroundings, stirring up snowflakes one after another.

Gao Yuanyi looks up at the blood bar above the Demon King, gritting his teeth. Apart from not being able to inflict damage on the Demon King, the shield on the Demon King remained unaffected.

The Demon King captured Gao Yuanyi’s action of looking up at him, completely certain of the thoughts in his mind. The cold was imbued in his words:

”You can see it, can’t you?”
