Chapter 162: Chapter162-Annihilating Ten Million Enemies with a Raise of His Hand

"Why are there humans here? Could they be NPCs?"

"NPCs my ass. Don’t you recognize who that person is?"

"My fuck—J-John?"

At first, the tens of millions of players had been extremely excited. But the moment their gazes landed on John, they were instantly terrified, as if they had seen a ghost.

This was especially true for Sukkar.

As the guild leader of Death Guild, no one understood John’s terror better than he did.

The very instant he saw John’s figure, he turned without hesitation and slipped into the crowd of players, trying to retreat back into the passage.

But it was already too late.

Because John had already noticed them.

"Why did a group of demon race suddenly come out from behind the passage?"

John was a little puzzled at first. His figure flashed, and only after drawing closer did he notice something strange about them.

"Wait. Why do their panels say they’re players?"

John’s gaze swept over the terrified Zone 3 demon race players below.

A moment later, a look of realization appeared on his face.

"Interesting. They’ve all completely transformed into the demon race?"

John fell into thought.

He remembered the demon race player he had encountered on the All-Race Battlefield.

However, compared to that demon race player, this batch of demon race players appeared especially inferior.

They did not possess even the slightest demon race talent. They were merely players whose bloodline had been converted into that of the demon race.

Compared to the demon race player from the All-Race Battlefield, these people were practically low-grade hybrid versions.

"Interesting. Looks like Zone 3 has completely fallen. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many demon race players coming here." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

The corner of John’s mouth curled up slightly. His figure flashed, and he appeared directly in front of the open space near the entrance back into the passage.

At this moment, the Zone 3 players had all realized something was wrong and were preparing to retreat.

However, John’s figure suddenly appeared in the direction of their escape, instantly giving them a huge fright.

"Run! I just got a message from a friend. This guy just claimed the first kill of a diamond-rank BOSS!"

"Damn it! Why is he everywhere?"

"There are so many of us here. Are you telling me we still can’t beat him alone?"

"That makes sense. Anyway, this place is the warren. It’s our home ground. With this many players, we can bury him through sheer numbers!"

"Good! Then let’s go all in. Kill!"

No one knew who shouted the slogan.

The next moment, tens of millions of demon race players instantly erupted in fury and surged toward John like a tidal wave.

Seeing this, the corner of John’s mouth lifted slightly.

"Perfect timing."

He had just been worried that he had nowhere to test out the divine damage buff he had just obtained!

"Come!"

John raised his hand. The next moment, a giant axe plundered from the Warrens Lord appeared in his grasp.

The giant axe was over ten meters long. Compared to John’s height of around 1.8 meters, it seemed extraordinarily massive.

It rested on his shoulder like a small mountain.

Yet John lifted it with incomparable ease. He brought the axe down directly.

At first, aside from the ground being blasted open by the impact, nothing else seemed to happen. When the players saw this, they thought John’s methods were nothing special after all.

"Did everyone see that? In the warren, this person’s strength has been suppressed. If we counter-kill him, we’ll definitely be able to make him drop a ton of good equipment!"

"Hahahaha! This is going to be great!"

"John, today is the day of your death!"

"Have a taste of my Hellfire!"

In an instant, half the sky above the warren was filled with the skill effects of the demon race players.

After undergoing demonization, their skills had become just like those of demon race creatures—ferocious and hateful.

However, in the next moment, the giant axe suddenly erupted with Hellfire even more terrifying than theirs.

Sizzle!

The Hellfire surged into the sky like an awakened behemoth, devouring and covering all of those skills.

And its momentum did not decrease at all.

It continued sweeping downward toward the players below.

When the Zone 3 demon race players saw this scene, they suddenly felt a deep chill rise in their hearts.

"Something’s wrong. Why is the momentum so huge?"

"Not good! All my skills have failed!"

"Damn it! We can’t beat him! Run!"

Sensing that something was wrong, they all prepared to use their methods to escape.

But at that moment, John murmured softly,

"Escape is forbidden here."

Buzz!

In an instant, the Law of Prohibition covered the entire area.

Even though they were inside the warren, these demon race players were horrified to discover that their skills had actually failed!

"How is this happening? Why have my skills turned into gray icons? Aren’t we supposed to be able to use them inside the warren?"

"My Demonized Flash too! It’s useless now!"

"Damn it! It’s John! He did something!"

"No! I don’t want to die here!"

...

Boom!

Under the terrified gazes of the Zone 3 demon race players, the towering Hellfire descended and instantly drowned them all.

Countless demonic bodies collapsed and scattered.

These demon race players died just like that inside the warren they had yearned for so long.

Even their Demonic Aura was quickly attracted by the Lifebane Tree.

This meant that their resurrection point had already been refreshed inside the warren.

From now on, if they wanted to return, they could only go from the warren back to the human world.

They no longer had any possibility of directly respawning in the human world.

After killing tens of millions of demonized players, system notifications rang beside John’s ears one after another.

[You have killed Zone 3 player "Klee" and plundered 10,000 gold coins, 3 bottles of A-rank MP Recovery Potion, and 19 pieces of B-rank equipment!]

[You have killed Zone 3 player "Tartaglia" and plundered 12,000 gold coins, 2 bottles of A-rank HP Recovery Potion, and 15 pieces of B-rank equipment!]

[You have killed Zone 3 player "Diluc" and plundered 15,000 gold coins, 3 bottles of A-rank HP Recovery Potion, and 17 pieces of B-rank equipment!]

[You have killed Zone 3 player "Venti" and plundered 9,000 gold coins, 5 bottles of A-rank MP Recovery Potion, and 21 pieces of B-rank equipment!]

...

After this wave of kills, John directly earned a massive batch of gold coins and equipment.

Once he returned, he could reward the guild players with them again.

In the distance.

Alan and the others, who had personally witnessed this scene, felt their scalps go numb.

They had never imagined that their guild leader could instantly kill so many players in one breath.

His terrifying Hellfire made even his own subordinates feel their hearts tremble.

"As expected of the guild leader. With such might, I’m afraid only he could accomplish something like this."

"Thank goodness we aren’t among those standing against the guild leader."

"With a guild leader like this holding the line for us, we have nothing to worry about!"

At this moment, all of them felt fortunate that they were John’s subordinates.

John, however, wore a somewhat solemn expression.

"They’re all demonized Zone 3 players. Looks like Zone 3 has completely fallen now.

"An entire human zone has transformed into a demon race zone.

"How is such behavior any different from betrayal?

"After resolving the demon race invasion here, I must begin dealing with the demon race problem in Zone 3!

"Otherwise, if this is allowed to drag on, the human race will be placed at a disadvantage in the later All-Race War!"

John looked at matters from a much longer-term perspective.

Very quickly, he had already planned out what he needed to do after returning to the human world.
