I've Become the King of Villains in the Game
Chapter 1034 - 672 Order or Chaos

Chapter 1034: Chapter 672 Order or Chaos

Just as players were puzzled over who the "King in Azure" was.

An invisible force swept through the game data, washing over all players’ cognition and quietly bringing back sealed memories...

"King in Azure!" "The final BOSS of version 3.0! Jack Spett?!" "He’s not dead?! He even resurrected the Proud Sun!"

The players were stunned.

And at that moment, the CG screen shifted.

The camera suddenly lifted, heading towards the high skies of the Sun Continent.

The background sound abruptly switched to a cello solo.

The deep, lingering tones felt like a whimper, also like a meat saw slicing back and forth at their nerves, depressing their mood.

A myriad of players’ expressions grew increasingly astonished.

As the scene rose above the clouds, looking down, three arched islands could faintly be seen forming a circular ring encompassing the entire Sun Continent.

The narration suddenly changed, transforming into another woman’s voice:

"The Sun Continent is but a corner of the whole Anita World, like a ’Lake Heart Island’ hidden in the center of the Mist Sea... Overseas, there’s an even vaster continent."

This female voice sounded youthful, possibly fifteen or sixteen years old, with a somewhat soft and tender tone.

The camera swiftly traversed, crossing the vast ocean and endless mist, showing a boundless stretch of land at the edge of the sea in the picture.

"This is the Outer Continent, another mysterious land, and also a region severely eroded by the ’Old Ones’ and ’Outer Gods’..."

The scene continually advanced.

Crossing mountains, swamps, plains, canyons...

Crossing enormous nations and civilizations...

The young female voice chanted:

"The Outer Continent, where the Nine Great Empires stand, glorious, rippling, Mela, White Blaze, Starfire, Burning, Sunset, Endless, Apocalypse... the Holy Land Klein stands supreme, the Blue Pope unmatched in might."

The players were quite thrilled.

There’s actually a map vaster than the Sun Continent?

A new version update, is this opening new maps and new professions?!

Whoa—

The scene suddenly turned pale.

The players only saw a pale land.

The flowers, trees, and even hills along the way were all like resplendent crystallized sculptures.

In the distance, a massive square city stood towering, constructed entirely of pale stone, with a layer of crystallization covering its surface.

"Isn’t this Jack’s Strength?!" "I remember clearly, I died several times because of that thing!" "Exactly, exactly!" "This is insane, how did the Azure King’s contamination end up here?!"

The bullet comments were nonstop.

Polaris glanced over, looking more shocked than anyone.

The CG screen moved forward.

On the city wall, stood two people.

A middle-aged man in an azure cloak, his golden hair combed back into a ponytail, face resolute and weathered.

Beside him was a beautiful girl with azure long hair and green eyes, wearing a dress, with an extraordinary air.

"This is White King City, the blind spot of the Nine Great Empires on the Outer Continent."

The girl slightly parted her lips.

The players immediately understood that the previous narration came from this young girl.

"I am, the daughter of City Lord Neil Lucius, Azure King’s follower, the beginning of chaos on the Outer Continent—Dannie Lucius." View the correct content at NovelFire)

Dannie opened her arms, her emerald eyes lifted.

Looking at the camera, she made eye contact with all the players.

"Undead Foreigners, follow me, and turn this world upside down!"

Buzz—

A violin joined the cello solo.

The tone suddenly heightened, even becoming a bit piercing.

And with that, the scene pulled back.

On a dreamlike floating meadow, the illusory Golden Sacred Tree swayed, below it, leaning on the White Throne, was an azure figure.

The man wearing a rusted Iron Crown, gazing upon all beings.

He also looked down upon every player watching the CG, his deep and serene voice spoke:

"Order or chaos, by your choice."

The ivory carved Staff of Power pointed downward.

Cling!

[You have triggered the first stage of the 4.0 version Main Quest: Choice!]

Mission Description: The King in Azure has ended the Solar Era, seemingly intending to reshape heaven and earth, creating a new era.

And you, need to make a choice.

Mission Target: First, stay on the Sun Continent, join Arno Tresor’s side, or the Dawn Church, and help them end the chaos, uniting the continent.

Second, head to the Outer Continent, join Dannie Lucius’s side, or White King City, and help ignite the flames of war, splitting the continent.

Polaris took a deep breath.

Which one to choose?

As he pondered over this, the in-game friend list suddenly beeped.

With a glance, it turned out to be the squad group chat, where Dongyang Chenxi and the other thirteen were discussing this issue.

"——This is so interesting, damn! There’s actually a new map and new forces! Should we start a new character and play? Perhaps there’s a new path on that Outer Continent!"

Doghead Gold said.

"——Play by yourself; I’ve built up my character for so long, I’m not willing to give it up."

Su Keying said.

"——Let’s discuss which faction to choose first, shall we?"

Dongyang said.

Polaris saw the group chat exchange, finally taking a deep breath.

"——We are already familiar with the Sun Continent. Since it’s a new version, let’s go explore the Outer Continent."

Actually, there was another reason he didn’t mention.

That was because his teacher once told him that the real world was also being peered at and threatened by a terrifying existence, and Polaris was planning to take this opportunity to learn more.

"——Ok! Listen to Brother Bei!"

Dragon King quickly responded.

When Polaris and the others all chose the "Dannie Lucius" faction.

The CG screen gradually turned into a blinding white light.

The background sound transformed into epic and magnificent orchestral music.

As if heralding that Your Majesty Jack, known as the "King in Azure," would initiate an event that would change the course of the world...

When players gradually made their choices.

After appearing one by one in the game world.

Numerous high-level players quickly discovered something extremely terrible.

"——Damn!!!"

"——Where did my eight hundred thousand Experience Points go?!!"

"——I painstakingly grinded for two years, saved over a million Experience Points, how did it get reset to zero?!"

"——Stupid official! Why aren’t you coming out to apologize?!"

"——If you can’t update properly, don’t update at all, last time the Main Quest bug lasted five years, this time you erased my Experience Points completely, you’re really something!"

In an instant, the game forum posts were flooded.

All of them were about the malicious BUG appearing in the new game version, where characters’ Experience Points mysteriously vanished.

But what puzzled players was that this seemed to only affect Sequence Five players.

Nearly a hundred thousand high-level players were left in tears, years of hard work down the drain, and their overwhelming grief soon turned into anger towards the game officials.

Curses and threats came one after another.

Yet the officials remained silent throughout.

The rest of the players, surprisingly, did not join in the "crusade," instead enjoying the spectacle, as misfortune didn’t befall them.

For those high-level players, envy and jealousy had lingered for a long time, and the arrival of this malicious BUG was nothing short of delightful.

It just happened that the progress of the first-tier high-level players was stalled, who knows, maybe they’d catch up in the future?

Human nature is always so peculiar.

The high-level players actually knew well that they wouldn’t stop playing just because of this incident.

The extraordinary Strength in the game could be brought into reality!

Once their bodies inherited the character data, they would become healthier and live longer, who would want to give that up?!

The lost Experience Points could only be swallowed like a dumb loss.

At most, they’d complain as they continued playing.

When the Polaris Squad went online, they were surprised to find that their Experience Points hadn’t been reset...

"——Scared me to death! So many high-level Sequence Five players lost Experience Points!"

"——I inquired with members of the first group of Extraordinary Sciences, they all got affected!"

"——Why haven’t we encountered this problem?"

Polaris regained their sight from the glaring white light and immediately realized they had logged into a massive medieval city, surrounded by whiteness.

He recognized this as the "White King City" from the CG!

Glancing at the chat group content, Polaris quickly checked their own panel, those three million Experience Points were still intact, and the Main Occupation [Clown LV1] stood out conspicuously.

With a sigh of relief, Polaris couldn’t help but think of that day in the research lab at the Federation’s Research Center, when he personally handed the "Black Disk" to his teacher...

Could it be his teacher’s doing?

He didn’t dare to be sure, nor did he dare to voice his suspicions.

"——Everyone is online, let’s gather at the entrance of White King City first."

Polaris spoke in the group chat.

"——Received! On the way!"

White King City.

At the highest point of the Central Castle, in the room of City Lord Neil, the direct members of the Lucius Family gathered together.

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, outside the azure architecture, sudden flashes of white light occurred, revealing individual silhouettes.

Neil’s four children looked surprised.

"Father, are those..."

The eldest son Pascal spoke in a deep voice.

Nearly fifty, Neil stood with hands behind his back, gazing at the scene outside the city, his eyes glinting with excitement as he spoke with a quivering tone:

"Yes, those are the Azure King’s divine messengers... They have descended upon White King City to fulfill our lord’s Oracle and overthrow the Nine Great Empires’ rule!"

The four children, already mid-Sequence in the Holy Fire, exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s faces.

"The great Azure King intends to take action against the Nine Great Empires?!"

"Indeed..."

Neil closed his eyes, taking a moment before opening them again.

Already Sequence Four in the Holy Fire, known as [Shadow by the Bonfire], He turned to look at his children with an expectant smile.

"You four are the best offspring of the Lucius Family, and only you have inherited the unique power of the Azure King... I hope you can assist the messenger Dennie in achieving this great feat."

"Messenger Dennie..."

The four young men and women took a deep breath.

Dennie Lucius’s arrival was abrupt, like she sprang from nowhere... Initially, they thought this girl with azure hair and emerald eyes was an illegitimate child of their father Neil outside.

But knowing their father, he wasn’t a promiscuous man.

All these years, he only loved their mother, Rafaela.

Later, their father privately told them that Dennie was a messenger sent by the Lucius Family’s revered "King in Azure," which astonished the four of them.

"Understood, father."

The eldest son Pascal lowered his head in agreement.

"We will pledge our loyalty to Messenger Dennie and help her overthrow the Nine Great Empires!"

"Excellent."

Neil smiled with satisfaction.

"Go now, Messenger Dennie is outside the city welcoming the descended messengers, go assist."

"Yes, father."

Pascal and the others answered respectfully, then turned and left.

As they left the castle and headed along the main road toward outside the city, they were dumbfounded to see the countless, densely packed crowd standing on the azure earth outside the city, each "messenger" possessing mid-Sequence strength.

At the front stood a slender figure with azure hair.

Dennie turned back and smiled at the four of them.

"We set out in three days, under the name of the ’Azure Serpent’ Mercenary Corps, to join the war against the Empires of Radiance, Mela, and Ripple."

Pascal was taken aback at first, then hastily responded:

"Yes, Messenger."
