I've Become the King of Villains in the Game
Chapter 866 - 551: High-Level Players Cause Chaos

On the other side of the remote island.

A group of players wearing different outfits were walking along the rocky shore.

"Mangun, is your mission guide really accurate? Who the heck would be wandering around in this godforsaken place? We’re not going to be running this for nothing, are we..."

Among the six people, a male player with the ID "Hand-brewed Coffee" complained.

Liu Mang glanced at him and smirked.

"This involves the hidden A-level mission of inheriting the destiny of high rankers. If it wasn’t a bit difficult, that would be unreasonable... This is already the final step, don’t mess it up."

"Don’t worry, we came prepared."

Forget-Me-Not, carrying a large knife, said while walking with a cigarette hanging from his mouth. Beside him, Candy was stroking her Live Fish Sword and rolled her eyes.

"Mangun’s words were just a reminder for ’Coffee’... This guy probably brewed too much in reality, his brain isn’t working right. Last time we did a mission together and he messed things up."

"Can you blame me for that?"

Hand-brewed Coffee raised his eyebrows.

"Candy is right, ’Coffee’ is just a rash person... So we need to keep an eye on him later."

The short-haired queen named "Frost Star" wrapped her arm around Candy’s shoulder, the two appeared quite close.

Walking at the back, Autumn Rain looked frustrated. Watching the two beauties in front being affectionate, he couldn’t help but complain:

"We’re doing an important mission for Mangun, could you take a moment to consider your image... It’s enough to eat dog food offline, now we have to handle cat food online."

Frost Star turned her head, a snowflake-shaped crystal earring gently swaying. Her bright eyes flashed with teasing, she exhaled a breath of white mist and softly taunted:

"You could find a boyfriend, I think ’Coffee’ is a good pick, his brewing technique could definitely make you breatheless."

"You better be talking about real coffee..."

Autumn Rain coughed.

Walking in front, Liu Mang suddenly spoke up:

"Don’t mess around, stay quiet... ’Spiritual Intuition’ tells me there’s danger ahead, be careful."

"Okay."

The group recognized the seriousness of the situation, quickly stopping their banter and remaining vigilant about the dull environment.

Not long after.

A burst of urgent footsteps sounded from ahead, the sound of shoes grinding against the gravel.

Liu Mang stopped and made a gesture.

The other five raised their eyes, revealing shocked expressions.

"Polaris!? And Sunny Xiaoyu... Why are these two together?!"

Several tens of meters away, another group of six stood confronting them, including Polaris in a blue gown and Sunny Xiaoyu. The opposite group also looked surprised.

"Chosen Squad..."

Polaris frowned deeply.

He glanced behind him, noticing the hunchbacked monsters weren’t following, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"I don’t care why you’re here, but don’t block the way."

Polaris said coldly.

Liu Mang shifted his gaze from Polaris, sweeping past Lucy Asoka before settling on Felisiano.

"I’m afraid that’s too bad, my Mission Target is right here, I can’t give up... How about handing over that man? The price is negotiable."

He pointed at Felisiano and spoke.

Polaris’ brow furrowed even deeper.

This high-level group came for Felisiano?!

"Get lost!"

Polaris immediately yelled coldly.

He raised his hand, throwing several Card Throwing Knives at the Chosen Squad.

"I’ve been wanting to see Polaris’ abilities..."

Liu Mang seemed to have expected, smiling broadly, he waved his hand and threw several playing cards. Several shadows flashed, colliding in mid-air.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—bang!

The cards bounced off each other, scattering weakly.

Both sides were unharmed.

But in the next second.

The Chosen Squad members felt a blur in front, their expressions changing. The blue silhouette abruptly appeared among them.

Polaris stood in the middle of the Chosen Squad, sweeping his Scepter Sword, the sharp sword wind brushing past Liu Mang, Autumn Rain, and Hand-brewed Coffee.

"What the heck!"

"It’s really Blink?!"

Several cries of surprise, three figures flew backwards, spilling blood, while Liu Mang dodged in time, avoiding the blow.

The three high-level players glanced at their Life Points, feeling extremely serious... Polaris’ strength was far beyond what they imagined!

"I told you to be careful, you wouldn’t listen!"

Candy, holding the Live Fish Sword, recalling the last time she was solo killed by Polaris, said apprehensively.

Liu Mang took a deep breath, quickly communicating in the squad channel:

"—I’ll handle Polaris, you guys take care of the Mission Target! Watch out for that long-haired NPC, he might be tough!"

"—No worries, if we can’t beat Polaris, we can still deal with some NPCs..."

Autumn Rain and the others replied.

Liu Mang immediately threw several more cards, but Polaris blocked them all with his Scepter Sword, the cards clattering.

"Path of Destiny player. You’re the only Magician I’ve ever seen... Chosen Squad, this is our second battle!"

Polaris said expressionlessly.

Gradually, his neck crawled with uneven dark green keratin until it covered his whole head, transforming into a long crocodile head. His crimson eyes stared directly at Liu Mang.

"Imitating animals? Evil ways!"

Liu Mang shouted loudly.

"Let me show you what real Destiny Faction looks like!"

As he spoke, Liu Mang raised his hand, and a rumbling sound echoed beneath his feet.

A giant crab, four or five meters tall, emerged from the rubble and lifted him onto its back.

This was a supernatural creature that Liu Mang had spent considerable effort taming, known as the "War King Crab," whose strength was entirely comparable to that of a Mid Sequence Transcendent!

But that wasn’t all.

Caw! Caw!

Accompanied by sharp screeches, two large monstrous birds landed on Liu Mang’s shoulders, their beak-like iron hooks opening and closing, revealing serrated edges, equally formidable.

"Specialized in Beast Taming…"

With cold eyes, Polaris instantly blinked over.

Boom!!

On the other side, Sunny Xiaoyu was engaged in combat with Autumn Rain. Although their IDs were somewhat similar, and their levels were nearly close, their fighting styles were completely different.

One was a sturdy warrior from the Solar System, the other a fragile magic output, chasing and fleeing, gradually straying from the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Lucy was shielding Felisiano and Asoka, while Raphael personally dealt with the remaining four high-ranking players.

"Oh my God, this is quite impressive…?"

"Can’t even see the panel, it’s either Sequence Five or Sequence Six!"

"Can’t beat it…"

Forget-me-not was struck by a punch from Raphael, immediately breaking the blade and sending him flying, lying on the ground in a near-death state.

At this moment, Raphael’s appearance changed dramatically, turning into a massive gargoyle, with deep grey skin and wings sprouting from his back.

The mature player named Frost Star saw this and immediately activated the mysterious earring. With a light step forward, the snow-covered ground beneath her feet sprouted sharp ice spikes.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Raphael was just about to flap his wings to take off but eerily missed a step. The rubble beneath his feet sank, causing him to momentarily lose balance.

This was a laughable mistake for a Sequence Five Transcendent, but Raphael just didn’t perceive it.

"The Misfortune of the Slanted Cross…"

His face grew solemn, as a thought flashed through his mind.

The next second, the ice spikes pierced right through Raphael’s body.

Fortunately, the "Gargoyle’s Skin" possessed formidable mysterious resistance. The ice spikes broke upon hitting his legs, causing only minor circulation issues instead of any real injury.

But Raphael was anxious as there were still pursuers behind him!

He had to quickly deal with these blocking Undead Foreigners!

"Die!"

Raphael coldly spat out a word.

He raised his hand and threw a small wax figure, which expanded upon catching the wind, instantly transforming into a lifelike narrow-eyed woman... This was the opponent Raphael had killed on one of his adventures, a Deep Sea Sequence Six [Sea Demon] Transcendent.

The wax figure of the woman opened her mouth and let out a sharp wail, sending an invisible soundwave sweeping over the four members of the Chosen Squad.

Eee——

The already gravely injured Forget-me-not died on the spot, turning into a white light and disappearing. Candy, Frost Star, and Hand-brewed Coffee felt their vision twist, their heads spinning, with huge drops in health points and sanity value on their status panels.

Hand-brewed Coffee, with a sharp, bladed glove on his right arm, raised his hand to protect his head, but the soundwave ignored his gesture and directly drilled into his ears.

"Ah!"

Hand-brewed Coffee let out a miserable scream, becoming the second to die.

Candy and Frost Star, too, couldn’t hold on for long. Facing Raphael, much higher in level, they were truly powerless. With just one wax figure, Raphael had caused their team’s complete annihilation.

After killing the four high-ranking members of the Chosen Squad, Raphael’s expression didn’t ease up. Instead, he urgently shouted towards Lucy and others:

"Run!"

Thump, thump, thump!

Due to the interference of the Undead Foreigners, Polaris and his team were delayed. Six or seven tall, hunchbacked monsters had already caught up.

"You guys go ahead, I’ll cover the rear."

Raphael said.

At that moment, Polaris was fighting another Undead Foreigner, and only Raphael alone could slightly hold off the pursuers. Anyone else encountering them would be absolutely doomed!

The hunchbacked monsters muttered in a strange language and raised their canes, aiming at Lucy and the others.

The green lantern at the head of the cane suddenly flashed brightly.

Buzz!

The green light shot straight, instantly enveloping Felisiano.

An invisible and mysterious force descended.

In the next second.

Boom!!

A huge explosion occurred where Sunny Xiaoyu and Autumn Rain were, two shards of metal spinning rapidly, shooting straight at Felisiano. He couldn’t react in time, but fortunately, Lucy, being Sequence Seven, quickly pulled him aside, saving Felisiano from a fatal blow.

"It’s Misfortune... That green light intensifies the occurrence of Misfortune."

Felisiano said, looking back at the hunchbacked monsters with lingering fear.

He began to worry about his friend Raphael, as both of them were entangled with the Misfortune of the Slanted Cross. Facing those hunchbacked monsters, Raphael could be in great danger.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!

At this moment, continuous explosions erupted on the rocky beach, cold seawater soared into the sky, and countless debris flew everywhere.

"What kind of skill is this? It can’t be Destiny Faction…"

Liu Mang’s incredulous voice came from the explosion.

Polaris stood tall in mid-air, hurling his colored magic flying cards once again.

The giant crab had already fallen, several legs broken, its tough shell ripped open, spilling its disgusting innards everywhere. The two monstrous birds were also dead, their heads severed by the sharp Diamonds cards, rolling to the side.

Liu Mang was trapped by Clubs cards at the spot, enduring two rounds of Spade card bombardment, his life points depleted, and he turned into white light, vanishing.

Even in death, he wasn’t reconciled. Polaris’s strength was indeed overwhelming... and the advanced skill resembling the "Card Throwing Knife" made him especially envious.
