I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 531 - 374: Intensity Increases
Chapter 531: Chapter 374: Intensity Increases
With a buzz!
The players charging towards the Abomination Fortress heard a dull vibration at a high frequency. They felt dizzy and nauseous all of a sudden.
Blurred circular red light waves emanated from the fortress and engulfed the players.
Buzz!
“Damn! My life points are dropping!”
A player shouted loudly.
The red light waves surged like a tide.
The players were under some unknown influence, and their life points were decreasing at a rate of one point per second. Although the damage was not high, their life point caps were generally between 300 and 400, which meant they could last only about six or seven minutes.
It was like a death warrant, constantly tightening the nerves of the players.
Some players hesitated and stopped in their tracks.
But as they looked around and saw countless people madly rushing toward the red fortress, they too were infected by the momentum and, gritting their teeth, continued to run wildly with flintlock rifles in hand.
The slaughter on the battlefield continued, and no one wanted to give up yet.
“Screw it! What’s the worst that can happen, losing a life? As long as we can inflict damage on that fortress and earn contributions, it’s all worth it!”
This was the mindset of almost all the players.
Above the Abomination Fortress, a huge blood sphere with a diameter of nearly ten meters slowly floated up and kept expanding… as if it had absorbed the blood of all beings within a kilometer radius around it and had condensed into form.
Bang, bang, bang…!
When the players got within two hundred meters of the Abomination Fortress, they gathered below and simultaneously lifted their flintlock rifles, pulling the trigger at the massive object in midair.
Countless red trajectories swept across, and the relentless, continuous gunfire, accompanied by the sizzling arc of electricity, left hot trails in the air flying towards the Abomination Fortress.
However, the blood sphere above the fortress suddenly shrank as if it used up some power, and a hazy, spherical blood-colored barrier encapsulated the fortress.
Gushing…
The storm of bullets bombarded the barrier, splashing out numerous blood droplets, then fell down powerlessly, not even reaching the outer red walls of the fortress.
“Can’t break through?!”
“We can’t keep going like this, we’ll be worn down alive!”
“What do we do? Should we pull back first?”
“Pull back my ass! Keep firing! Keep firing! I refuse to believe we can’t break through that damn shell!”
The players began to sink into anxiety and chaos, with continuous frantic shouts, and some even fumbled with reloading their magazines repeatedly, like nervous teenagers who couldn’t find the direction at critical moments…
Lost outside the “Great Gate” of victory.
Facing the red barrier of the Abomination Fortress, the players felt helpless and hoped only that maximizing their output could break it down.
But in the distant rear, Chen Lun stood, looking down and shaking his head.
‘This is still the fortress in its moving state, unable to unleash its full power… One can only imagine what a tough obstacle this would be if its weakness were not known.’
The anxiety in other battle zones was largely caused by the Abomination Fortress.
Chen Lun could totally understand.
Even with the combination of flintlock rifles and Black Crystal bullets, with the players’ output capability, shooting like this for three days and nights would still not likely break through that protective barrier of the Abomination Fortress.
Without a transcendent transformation in power, they simply couldn’t inflict effective damage on it.
Chen Lun turned and glanced at a few members of the Golden Cup beside him and said:
“All of you strike together, focus your attacks on the top of the barrier.”
“Yes, Lord Jack!”
Frey and others responded respectfully.
Immediately, four or five black shadows streaked across the sky, heading towards the massive object.
At the same time, the “Pale Mark” of all Circus executives also resonated with his voice:
“Floey, Noah, Anton… you follow the Golden Cup members and strike.”
“Yes, Leader!”
The executives, positioned in various directions of the battlefield, bowed and responded.
Floey rode the black “Giant Wave,” Noah sprouted bat wings to fly, Anton sprinted upright, Maggie rode a mad bull… Chen Lun’s high-end combat power converged near the fortress.
Various extraordinary lights burst forth, bombarding the top of the blood-colored barrier successively.
Rumble!!
A huge sound followed by a dazzling bright light unleashed a powerful shockwave.
The players nearby even fell down together, crying out in alarm.
Bang!!
The top of the barrier surrounding the fortress was breached, like a popped bubble, crumbling from top to bottom into countless mists of blood.
“Oh!!”
The players instantly cheered.
“Blasted it open! Jack’s the man!!”
“Charge!!”
“Keep firing! Keep firing!!”
Bang, bang, bang…!
Bang, bang, bang, bang…!!
With the continuous sound of gunfire, the players finally saw dense pockmarks appearing on the red outer walls of the Abomination Fortress. Debris of stone and wood splinters flew all over the sky.
“It’s losing life points! The fortress is losing life points! Keep it up, brothers!”
The players were overjoyed, and their hands trembled with excitement as they held their rifles.
Nothing was more exhilarating than this!
Nearly a hundred thousand players focused their fire, and the massive Abomination Fortress couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
Perhaps the Red Apple Church couldn’t sit still any longer, as they started the fortress’s mechanisms. With the large metal gears and bearings turning, the bottom opened several steel gates.
Countless figures wrapped in blood spheres emerged from the Great Gate and plummeted down.

With snapping sounds incessant, five to six hundred Red Apple priests leaped out from the exploding blood spheres and charged towards the players. In addition, there were thousands of enemy players.
They were primarily from the Lost Name Guild, plus many individual players who had joined the Red Apple Church!
“Hahaha! They’re players from the Red Apple Church!”
“Good heaven! A large-scale PVP scene, eh! Forward! Kill them all!”
The players on Chen Lun’s side were extremely excited, even redirecting their guns from the fortress and priests to the enemy players.
Our numbers were many times that of the enemy, and our equipment was also superior.
What’s there to fear?
Just do it!
Bang bang bang…!
The red trajectories of bullets crisscrossed over the battlefield, and the Red Apple Church players who had just landed were instantly obliterated by a massive and heavy onslaught.
“Ah!”
“Quick, save me!”
“Dodge! Dodge!!”
“Damn it! Don’t block the way! Move to the side!”
The enemy players’ group fell into extreme chaos, and in just a few breaths, their numbers had been reduced by a third, fading away into white light.
The Lost Name Guild players were even more panicked, holding their iron-rimmed wooden shields, and they dared not lift their heads.
“Chairman! What do we do?! Half of our brothers are dead!”
The chairman ‘Nameless’, vice-chairman ‘Landon’, and many other high-ranking members of Lost Name Guild were also feeling a chill down their spines facing this desperate situation.
They had not expected the situation to be so lopsided.
Initially, the guild decided to join the Red Apple Church because it was one of the Seven Righteous God Churches, with boundless prospects… But who could have expected it would actually turn out to be the version’s boss!
Attempting to provoke the entire Empire into war with their own strength.
Madmen! They were all madmen!
And the Lost Name Guild would also be destroyed along with these madmen!
“What else can we do?! Go all out!”
Chairman Nameless roared angrily.
He issued orders through the guild channel, to resist and kill the enemy as much as possible, to buy time for the Red Apple Church.
Roar roar!
Tens of guild elites transformed, revealing the Sequence form ‘Butcher’, and joined the line of Red Apple priests as little giants, charging toward players in all directions.
But the terrifying red trajectories of bullets stung their bodies, causing parts of their bodies to begin blackening and withering. They hadn’t gotten far before they all fell and died.
“It’s not just ordinary bullets, even the Red Apple Church’s priests can’t withstand a few shots, let alone our Transcendent officials!”
Vice-chairman Landon reported to the chairman beside him.
Everyone felt their hearts grow cold.
“Our other members in different war zones aren’t suffering this badly… Only Jack’s team, which recruited so many players and each having a signature flintlock rifle from the Circus, how are we supposed to fight this? Damn it?!”
But soon, the situation changed again.
A beam of blood erupted from the top of the Abomination Fortress and shot up into the sky, as if linking to the heavens and dying the sky red.
Roars and prayers accompanied by trembling grounds came from more distant cities.
“That’s the Fallen Believers from the main city! They’ve all been summoned by the fortress!”
The players on Chen Lun’s side, noticing the looming swarms around them, immediately cried out.
Whoosh!!
Red rain suddenly descended from the blood-colored sky, pouring over this land.
Snow melted, turning it into a blood sea hell.
Tens of thousands of Fallen Believers burst apart, turning into raging tentacles of flesh, seemingly enhanced by some mysterious power. Meanwhile, the enemy players under Jack’s command saw a dramatic increase in their life points’ depletion rates, which had escalated significantly from one point a second to several folds.
Sizzling…
Players’ bodies were corroded by the rain, birthing unpleasantly pus-filled tumors, causing nausea.
They screamed wretchedly, and under the assault of the Red Apple priests and the Fallen Believers, they began to suffer heavy casualties.
Upon seeing this, Chen Lun narrowed his eyes.
He made a decisive call, directing his Golden Cup officials and Circus elites to strike the enemy’s densely populated areas intensively.
“Akebin, Maggie, go all out!”
“Yes!”
Maggie’s face revealed a manic grin, urging her frenzied bull forward into the countless Fallen Believers.
Boom boom boom!
Dozens to hundreds of flesh chunks were torn open and flung aside, and rich green smoke rose from the smashed potion bottles along the path, appearing like a high green wall rising amidst the monster crowd.
The chunks enshrouded in smoke fell to the ground, their flesh and blood disintegrating, losing their vitality.
Akebin’s achievements were even more formidable.
He spread his arms wide, as countless gnats and moths appeared out of nowhere, converging into a dark cloud and surging towards the enemy. Not just the Fallen Believers, even the robust Red Apple priests, plagued with multiple or even numerous Transcendent diseases, succumbed in less than ten seconds flat.
And not long after these bodies fell, they exploded, spewing more disease-carrying insects, spreading and infecting the surroundings, creating a horrific chain reaction!
Though each of the Golden Cup officials was of Sequence Five through conspiratorial means, in terms of mass damage, they were far behind Maggie of merely Sequence Seven, let alone Akebin.
The casualty count by the two Poison Doctors even exceeded the total casualties caused by the Golden Cup officials!
Both parties’ players, noticing the escalating intensity of the battlefield, were astounded.
Their ears echoed with roars and screams, their noses smelled only gunpowder and blood, the ground below shook constantly, and everything around was bathed in scarlet.
The reality, intensity, and grandeur made them feel overwhelmingly insignificant.
