Volume 8, Chapter 22 – Tianyin Is a Bit Black-Bellied

Throne-tier stood at the very peak of this game world, the strongest existences of all.

Their level of power could not be compared through attributes, nor could it be described by numbers.

If Legendary-tier were beings who could fight a hundred alone, a thousand alone, ten thousand alone, then Throne-tier were existences that could easily crush such Legendary-tier beings.

When power reached a certain level, it became a domain of rules.

The rule of the Undead Grand Duke Sargus was undead. Under his rule, undead were allowed to exist.

The rule of the King of Paladins was holy light, or from another perspective, faith.

As for the former Beastmen Prophet, that aged shaman, his rule was elementals.

And Tianyin’s rule was the power brought by the Seven Original Sins.

Gluttony, Wrath, Greed, Lust, Pride, Envy, Sloth.

The seven original sins brought seven different rules of power. Possessing multiple rules at once, Tianyin’s combat strength was, in some sense, far stronger than that of ordinary Throne-tier existences.

And now, at the instant Tianyin activated her power, the entire sky was dyed red by her strength. The chaotic aura brought by countless demons was directly suppressed until it had nowhere to hide before Tianyin’s presence alone.

This was the true terror of Throne-tier.

Like the gap between gods and mortals, the distance between a colossal beast and ants.

“Damn it, even if she’s a vessel we’re no match for her… quickly think of a way to call the Lord over!”

At the moment Tianyin vanished, one of the Demon Lords present put forward this extremely appropriate suggestion.

However, the moment those words left his mouth, that Demon Lord suddenly found his headless body appearing within his own field of vision.

“Things like sending messages for help aren’t allowed, you know? I’ll get angry~”

Casually severing the head of a Demon Lord, Tianyin inspected the surrounding Demon Lords with a gaze that carried no clear meaning, a cute smile resting on her lips.

“Alright, actually I’m not some kind of bad person. But none of you are good people either. So, I’ll be taking each and every one of your precious lives~”

Clearly just an incomparably cute loli, yet after saying this, she gave the Demon Lords present a strong sense of this is what a demon really is.

“I surrender, I surrender, is that okay?!”

Under the enormous pressure brought by Tianyin, a Demon Lord directly gave up resisting and chose to surrender.

“Eh? Surrender?”

Faced with this Demon Lord’s surrender, Tianyin looked a little troubled.

“Does that even count as a demon? Why are you so spineless?”

“Why would demons need backbone? Besides, I’m clearly no match for you… surrendering is the best choice right now.”

It had to be said that this reasoning did make sense. It was also the optimal choice for survival.

However, Tianyin had no intention of accepting surrender.

So, facing the Demon Lord who chose to surrender, Tianyin raised the knight sword in her hand with a regretful expression.

“Surrendering is useless, after all, you’re a demon.”

In the next instant, before the demon who chose to surrender could even react, he was directly cut down by Tianyin’s sword.

“…”

Watching the Demon Lord brutally slain by Tianyin, all the Demon Lords present fell into rare silence.

The looks they cast at Tianyin carried not only wariness, but fear.

Of course, there were also some demons with particularly violent tempers who revealed furious gazes.

“So what if you kill us? The Lord will definitely avenge us!”

“That’s right, the Lord will surely be able to deal with you!”

“We’ll fight you to the end!”

With no way to retreat, the Demon Lords chose to struggle desperately.

And in their final desperate struggle, the Demon Lords did not forget to try to disgust Tianyin with words one last time.

Naturally, words of this level had no effect on Tianyin at all. After all, she was often teased by Xiaomengyao and Sister Xiaomu before. This level of verbal stimulation made Tianyin feel nothing at all.

“The Abyssal Lord, that fellow. I’ll fight her sooner or later!”

Saying this in a rather world-weary tone, Tianyin once again swung the knight sword in her hand.

And this time, the targets she faced were dozens of meters Legendary-tier Abyssal Lord!

Bang—!

While Tianyin was dealing with the Demon Lords, the entire demon camp was still in utter chaos.

The previous mutual slaughter among the Demon Lords had already affected the entire camp. The demons throughout the camp were also killing each other.

On top of that, Tianyin had successfully held back the Demon Lords. After Fisiel led the knight legion in a breakthrough into the camp, the demons inside were unable to organize any effective resistance at all.

After all, the Demon Lords who formed the highest command structure had all been dragged down by Tianyin. Without their command, there were no demons qualified to direct the chaotic camp.

As a result, the knight girl Fisiel discovered that this assault on the demon camp was not difficult at all.

Not only was it not difficult, it was unexpectedly easy.

Yes. After breaking into the camp, every demon soldier they encountered died miserably under the knights’ swords. Even after nearly ten minutes of slaughter, Fisiel still had not encountered any demon force of meaningful scale.

“Have they given up resisting?”

The battle-hardened Knight Princess could not figure it out. Of course, this was also something Fisiel was happy to see, so even though she could not understand it, as long as it was a good thing, she did not bother thinking about it further.

“Or could it be… all of this is my lord… Xiaoyin’s doing…”

In a daze, Tianyin’s cute little face surfaced in Fisiel’s mind.

……

“NPC purge mission. Who came up with this task? Are they out of their mind?”

As the Arcane Emperor of the Arcane Empire, the uncrowned king of the Academy Faction, and one of the only two Throne-tier players, Andrew also saw the official announcement posted on the forums.

Although the points rewards listed in the mission were somewhat tempting, for Andrew, who was already Throne-tier, such points meant nothing to him.

Of course, even if it did not tempt Andrew, he was completely unable to understand this inexplicable data purge.

“Killing NPCs? Why is the official side so obsessed with killing NPCs? NPCs are indispensable to us players, aren’t they? After all, things like issuing quests all rely on NPCs…”

The role of NPCs in the game was beyond doubt. And this baffling behavior from the official side left Andrew, the Arcane Emperor, completely puzzled.

“Then should we respond to this plan?”

The player lackey beside him asked quietly.

“Leave it for now. Regarding this matter, I want to see what that fellow from the Kingdom thinks first.”

Andrew calmly closed his eyes, no one knowing what he was thinking.
