[The Demon Realm has begun to tremble. A dangerous gaze has locked onto you...]

A notification rang beside John’s ear.

He merely lowered his head and glanced at Demon Lord’s City below, where Demonic Aura now covered the ground. Then he calmly withdrew his gaze.

To him, no trick or scheme would be effective.

Right now, John was stacking rage.

The strongest part of Wrathborn was that it could even stack rage from self-inflicted damage caused by players.

Once his rage reached 999 stacks, the damage unleashed by John’s thousand-plus clones would be enough to destroy the entire Demon Lord’s City.

At this moment, the red light surrounding John and his clones had almost dyed the entire sky blood-red.

His current stack count had already reached 790, and it was still increasing at a rate of one stack per second.

...

At this moment, within the Demonic Aura below, an incomparably enormous pupil gradually emerged.

It was an eye.

It had no owner.

The eye itself was its main body.

Its arrival caused no movement at all. There was not even the slightest ripple in the air.

Yet the moment it appeared, a terrifying pressure descended, forcing every player in the city to lower their heads.

As for those monsters, they trembled violently, one after another bowing down in submission.

John lowered his gaze and threw out a Detection spell.

Information about the giant pupil immediately surfaced before him.

[Lord of the Demon Eye]

...

"Interesting. A creature that even my Detection spell can’t inspect has actually appeared."

A trace of fluctuation finally appeared in John’s eyes.

This was the first time in so long that he had encountered a creature whose details could not even be identified by his SSS-rank Detection spell.

"Let’s test it first."

John controlled one of his clones and sent it descending straight down, stabbing a blade toward the giant pupil.

The next moment, a notification rang beside his ear.

[This creature is currently in an unattackable state!]

John’s eyes narrowed slightly.

"It’s actually unattackable? Interesting."

A long-lost battle intent appeared in his eyes.

"Only a creature of this level has any flavor!"

The previous bosses had simply been far too weak.

Coincidentally, at this moment, he and his clones had also stacked Divine Wrath to 99.

Every single body now looked like a humanoid beam of bloody light.

But since he already knew that the Lord of the Demon Eye could not be attacked, he might as well wait for the other side to strike first.

In any case, while in the Wrathborn state, he could also become immune to the vast majority of damage.

"Come on. Attack me as much as you want!"

More than a thousand Johns spread their arms, high-spirited and ready to receive the opponent’s attack!

...

Below.

Ever since the Demon Eye appeared, it had been staring wide open without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

The Demonic Aura in Demon Lord’s City had nearly enveloped the entire city, completely concealing the figures of the players within.

Only this Demon Eye remained fixed in place like a reef in the middle of a vast ocean.

If one looked carefully, one would discover that within the pupil of this Demon Eye, figures in the sky were being rapidly reflected.

John and his clones were actually appearing inside the Demon Eye one after another!

Inside the City Lord Mansion, Aroka looked at the scene outside with anticipation written all over his face.

"My lord, can this Demon Eye really kill that human and all of his clones together?"

The demon dragon had now completely withdrawn its earlier imposing manner.

After all, before the Lord of the Demon Eye, even it was nothing more than a small fry.

The demon dragon sneered and said proudly, "Of course. This Demon Eye is a reflection of an eye left behind by the progenitor god of our demon race.

"The progenitor god is an indescribable existence. A mere reflection of His eye is enough to instantly kill any creature whose level is lower than His.

"Rest assured. I have never seen this Demon Eye miss before!

"It is only because you newly joined demon race individuals are somewhat special that you can summon it by sacrificing only ten million of your kind.

"If it were ordinary demon race beings, it would probably take one billion sacrifices to call it forth."

This was the first time the demon dragon had spoken so much.

After hearing this, Aroka’s confidence soared.

He grinned viciously and said, "Since even my lord says so, then I can rest easy.

"John, just wait for death!"

...

"It’s coming."

John could sense that he had already been locked onto.

But he was not panicked in the slightest.

Facing the Eye of the Demon Progenitor below, which reflected the images of him and his clones, John appeared calmer than anyone else.

In his view, that eye below was not much different from an ordinary boss.

Just then, after building up for a long time, the Eye of the Demon Progenitor finally moved.

Its eye began to blink.

Every time it blinked, a hoarse sound rang out.

"He..."

"Green..."

"Slaughter!"

The three words fell.

A terrifying muffled boom suddenly came from the earth.

Immediately afterward, the Demonic Aura inside Demon Lord’s City churned violently.

The ground was corroded by the Demonic Aura, forming pit after pit.

Countless streams of Demonic Aura were rapidly absorbed by the Demon Eye.

Those demon race players all felt their hearts tremble, as well as a calling from the depths of their bloodline.

It was as if a strand of the Demon Progenitor’s will had descended upon this eyeball.

The next moment.

The Eye of the Demon Progenitor slowly closed.

Then, it quickly disappeared from within Demon Lord’s City.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

This scene left all the players of Zone 5 and Zone 3 stunned.

What did that mean?

It had caused such a huge commotion, but in the end, it was all thunder and no rain?

The Zone 3 players in particular were both shocked and furious.

They had sacrificed more than ten million players to bring this thing out.

And now, it had simply closed its eye and left?

Aroka was the angriest of all.

"My lord, this..."

"Shut up!" the demon dragon roared.

At this moment, the demon dragon’s eyes were filled with shock and terror.

It said in a low voice, "Just now, He came."

He?

Aroka’s pupils shrank slightly. He was just about to say something when he heard the demon dragon continue.

"My lord said that He wants this human’s soul!"

Aroka, however, could not understand.

"What does wanting his soul mean?"

The demon dragon said coldly, "It means that this human has already been targeted by Him.

"As long as this human remains alive and has not fallen into the demon race, He will continue interfering with him and hunting him down in various ways."

Hearing this, joy appeared in Aroka’s eyes.

"Doesn’t that mean that even after this battle is over, John will still be targeted?"

The demon dragon glanced at him and said softly, "You don’t actually think this is a good thing, do you?"

Aroka froze.

"Isn’t it? He’s our enemy."

The demon dragon smiled contemptuously.

"For us demon race, it is naturally a good thing. But for you, it is not necessarily a good thing at all.

"Once he falls and becomes a member of the demon race, he will become the individual most favored by the demon race.

"If he becomes dissatisfied with you, then the Demon Progenitor will not hesitate to strip the demon race bloodline from your bodies.

"When that time comes, the Demon Progenitor will be helping him deal with all of you instead."

Hearing this, Aroka’s face turned pale.

He had never imagined that things would end up developing into this kind of situation.

The moment he thought of the Demon Progenitor targeting the Zone 3 players for John’s sake, Aroka instead began praying.

No matter what, John absolutely could not be successfully corrupted by the Eye of the Demon Progenitor!
