Chapter 157: Chapter157-The Entire Zone Falls, the Demon Race Replaces Them

When the players of Zone 3 saw this announcement, as well as the surrender prompt that had popped up before their eyes, their eyes lit up.

It seemed they had discovered something incredible.

They could actually become members of the demon race by surrendering on their own initiative.

Wasn’t this way too good?

Could this be the true reward of the demon race dungeon?

After all, relying solely on killing demon race monsters and painstakingly earning those few points—the items they could exchange for were not even worth as much as the levels and equipment they dropped when they died.

But if they transformed into the demon race, everything would be different.

The demon race was naturally stronger than the human body.

Their basic attributes were also higher.

More importantly, after becoming members of the demon race, even if the main cities declined, they could still continue using most of the functions inside the main cities.

They could even gain access to even more types of professional magic instructors.

"Everyone, what are you choosing?"

"Even the guild leader surrendered. Do we still need to think about it? Just follow him."

"Exactly. The benefits of surrendering are way too great. The demon race has such high base attributes, and they even give you an additional talent."

"Even a fool would know what to choose."

...

For a moment, countless Zone 3 players chose to surrender.

They fell and became members of the demon race.

Inside the City Lord Mansion, Sukkar was among the first batch of players to surrender.

The moment he selected the surrender button, a notification immediately sounded beside his ear.

[You have chosen to surrender. You will now begin falling into the demon race!]

In the next instant, Sukkar felt his body grow heavy.

His originally vibrant skin and muscles began to shrivel rapidly.

At the same time, his body became even more powerful.

It was like muscles that had been filled with water, only to then be drained dry.

His skin became incomparably dark.

Many demonic patterns appeared across his body.

Strands of Demonic Aura began spreading from him.

[You have fallen and become a demon race player!]

As the notification fell, from this moment onward, Sukkar had completely become a demon race player.

At the same time, he noticed that his personal panel had changed as well.

Sukkar immediately opened it and began checking.

"My original class has directly disappeared. In its place is demon race warrior."

"And the skills I learned before are all unusable now. There’s also a conversion button beside them. Each conversion requires 10 million experience points."

"Even all my previous equipment has been completely melted down by Demonic Aura. If I want to wear equipment again, I’ll have to use an extraction method to refine a new set."

"So, right now, I’ve already thoroughly become a demon race player."

"Even my class will have to be advanced again in the future."

"From this moment onward, I am a member of the demon race."

...

Sukkar looked at his completely changed personal panel.

There was not the slightest regret in his heart.

There was only satisfaction.

That was because he saw a new additional talent on his panel.

[Demon Race Exclusive Talent]

[Effect]: Possesses the ability to corrupt with Demonic Aura.

Any target attacked by you will gradually be affected as the number of attacks stacks.

This can cause the target to become your Demonic Aura puppet.

[Note]: This ability can take effect on other human players who have not surrendered.

[Introduction]: An exclusive talent of the demon race. Once possessed, it can be used without restriction.

This grants them natural aggression.

At the same time, it also makes the demon race even more brave and skilled in battle.

...

Sukkar swallowed.

He had never seen such an overpowered racial talent before.

Compared to the human panel, which had no additional talents at all, this demon race panel after falling was undoubtedly much stronger.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. No wonder so many people want to surrender. The benefits after surrendering are truly numerous."

"If you ask me, this dungeon should have been triggered right when the server opened. That way, everyone could have transformed into demon race players ahead of time."

"I have to immediately announce this discovery and let more people join the demon race. Otherwise, if Zone 3 splits into two major races—humans and demon race—in the future, things will get troublesome."

With this thought, Sukkar immediately used his identity as guild leader to issue another announcement.

[Demon Race Sukkar] (Guild Leader): "Everyone, choose surrender. After becoming the demon race, your personal panel will become stronger!"

...

Some players who had originally still been watching from the sidelines instantly made up their minds after seeing the announcement sent by their guild leader after he had fallen into the demon race.

"The guild leader has already personally tested it for us. Do we still need to hesitate?"

"We really do become stronger? That’s great."

"I’ve decided. I’m going to surrender!"

"Demon race panel, here I come!"

In the next moment, almost all the players in Zone 3 chose to surrender.

They fell and became demon race players.

This was a herd mentality.

As long as the leader made a decision, everyone else would immediately follow.

At this moment, the players of Zone 3 no longer had any intention of resisting.

One after another, they chose to surrender and fall into the demon race.

In just a few short seconds, the number of demon race players skyrocketed to tens of millions.

And it was still increasing by several million every second.

In particular, after a large number of players saw their demon race panels, they could not help showing off in the Zone channel.

"Hahahaha! After falling into the demon race, my strength attribute directly increased by more than double!"

"Damn! After my ordinary warrior class changed into demon race warrior, I actually got an A-rank warrior skill!"

"I thought my hidden class was completely ruined. I didn’t expect that after changing into the demon race, this hidden class would directly become a magical beast warrior class that’s considered top-tier even among the demon race!"

...

To these players, from beginning to end, they had always treated this place as a game.

Naturally, they would not have any sense of belonging.

Not to mention, after falling into the demon race, their panels and attributes had become even stronger.

Under the influence of the overall environment, what right did they have not to surrender?

In fact, as time passed, some extremely lucky players even discovered a special benefit!

"Damn! Why did I receive a Hidden Quest after falling into the demon race? It wants us to go massacre a city?"

"Holy crap, I got one too. But mine requires me to destroy the fountain of a human main city."

"The rewards are way too generous. It can actually let us directly obtain an entire demon race main city."

"All class changes inside a demon race main city are free!"

"Then what are we hesitating for? Hurry up and tell us players who didn’t receive the quest what the details are. We’ll form a group and help you complete it!"

...

This discovery instantly drove the players of Zone 3 into madness.

Relying on the class characteristics they had gained after falling into the demon race, they began destroying one human main city after another.

Even though the NPCs inside the main cities cursed them bitterly and denounced their betrayal and cruelty, the players still carried out their quests without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

After all, in their eyes, these NPCs were nothing more than strings of data.

So what if they killed them?

Even though some unlucky players encountered powerful human experts inside the human main cities, very soon, even more monsters surged over and helped them kill and devour those experts.

This long-lost feeling of having a powerful backer completely intoxicated the players of Zone 3.

As one demon race main city after another replaced the human main cities, the demon race players of Zone 3 suddenly developed an illusion.

Now that their entire zone had fallen into the demon race...

Did they now have the capital to fight Zone 5 under John’s leadership?
