บท 68: Chapter 68:- You've Finally Come
"It's Peng Peng!"
The senior members, hearing the player's words, were instantly filled with rage.
"No way?! So, it was him!!"
"What a damn traitor! Like father, like son!"
"Biting the hand that feeds you. A wolf raising another white-eyed wolf. Incredible!"
"I said we should've kicked him out a long time ago! None of this mess would've happened!"
"..."
Tianheng, upon hearing this, felt the name sounded familiar but couldn't quite place it. Only after listening to the leaders' discussions did it click.
Yet, Tianheng wasn't particularly angry. With the Ender Dragon and 007 as trump cards, not even HIM's arrival would be a real threat.
He didn't want to waste his time on someone like Peng Peng. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Just kill him, then kick him out of the guild."
"No need to waste any more time."
Even if Tianheng couldn't really deal with Peng Peng in the long term—since Peng Peng was a player, death meant respawning.
All they could do was strip him of all his gear and resources and kick him out to vent their frustration. Chasing him in real life wasn't an option, after all.
The players, hearing Tianheng's command, quickly found Peng Peng.
A few of them dug a deep pit and filled it with lava. Grabbing Peng Peng, they shoved him inside.
Peng Peng, even as he was being dragged away, already knew what was coming. As he fell into the scorching pool of lava, he didn't resist; he let the blistering heat consume him.
Just then, a shadow streaked across the distance.
With a quick motion, the shadow eliminated the players standing around the lava pit.
Peng Peng's heart sank. It was 007.
He had no idea where 007 came from, but it was clear the zombie wanted to save him.
But Peng Peng couldn't let it happen. 007 had spent so long laying low; he couldn't blow his cover for him!
As 007 prepared to strike down a third player, Peng Peng shouted out.
"You heartless scum! Even a zombie knows to protect the Eternal Guild's players, and you treat me like this?!"
The remaining players were initially stunned by 007's actions, but hearing Peng Peng's words, they understood.
One of them hurriedly said, "This was Leader Tianheng's command! Did you forget? We obey the leader's word!"
007 hesitated mid-strike, his hand frozen in the air. He glanced deeply at Peng Peng, then disappeared into the distance.
Seeing 007 back down, Peng Peng let out a sigh of relief.
As reckless as 007's actions had been, it still warmed Peng Peng's heart.
Funny, wasn't it? After all this time playing games, a monster cared more for him than the members of the Eternal Guild.
"Hell, I might as well follow HIM and be a monster myself."
Peng Peng died and was promptly kicked out of the guild. But it didn't end his plan for revenge.
Once resurrected, Peng Peng wasted no time and rushed back toward the Eternal Guild's territory. He started scouting for the best streaming location.
Previously, Peng Peng had been worried about being insta-killed by HIM when broadcasting the fight. Now, with his banishment, there was one less concern. All he needed was the perfect vantage point.
He barely finished finding a spot when he noticed a floating figure at the entrance of the Eternal Guild's base.
When did he appear? Peng Peng was sure no one was there moments ago.
The figure's back was to Peng Peng, but there was no doubt—there was only one person who could appear so suddenly, hovering like that.
The Demon King, HIM.
Seeing HIM at the guild's doorstep, Peng Peng could barely contain his excitement.
"HIM, you've finally come!"
Without hesitation, Peng Peng opened the forums and started streaming.
[HIM Descends Upon the Eternal Guild – A Battle at the Brink!]
The title was too eye-catching. Players flocked in droves.
HIM's back faced the stream's camera, and across from him stood a grand structure surrounded by several zones—livestock pens, fields, wells, and more.
A massive wall, 40 blocks high, encircled the base. It even had watchtowers, with banners lining the walls, forming the guild's emblem.
The streaming audience exploded with excitement.
"No way?! HIM really showed up!!"
"Damn, this guild base is impressive! Screenshot before it's turned to rubble!"
"Wow… HIM can fly now?!!"
"Wonder how strong he's gotten… kind of excited."
"Holy crap?! A real live stream?!"
"Gotta share this! Too epic not to!"
Players' curiosity and hunger for chaos only fueled the stream's popularity.
At the Eternal Guild's base...
A player standing watch at a tower, bored out of his mind, suddenly noticed a figure materialize in mid-air. He almost jumped out of his skin. When he recognized who it was, chills ran down his spine.
"H… HIM…"
The player was frozen, his mind blank. Finally, he remembered his duty and scrambled to open the guild chat.
"HIM is here!!! HIM is here!!"
"Attention! This is not a drill!!"
"HIM has arrived!!!"
---
Eternal Glory had prepared extensively for this fight. To prevent ambushes, players were ordered to operate deep underground. No more venturing out or exploring.
The guild chat for watchtower guards was set to bright red for maximum visibility.
The moment the guard reported HIM's arrival, the guild chat erupted.
"So soon?!"
"Crap… even with our monster allies, I'm a bit scared…"
"Stay calm! Follow the leader's orders!!"
Yonghui knew HIM would come. He just didn't expect it so fast.
He glanced at the young Ender Dragon beside him, feeling uneasy. If the dragon had been fully grown, he'd have more confidence.
But it wasn't. Not yet. Still, it was too late to back down.
Resolute, he gathered everyone in the underground plaza.
"For ten years, Eternal Glory has dominated countless games. Many of you have seen us rise from nothing."
"For five years, in every game we entered, we set the standard. We called the shots! If we weren't number one, who dared claim they were?!"
"Players are called the Fourth Calamity for a reason."
"Gods? Dragon Kings? If you've got a health bar, we'll bring you down!"
Eternal Radiance had a way of rallying his people. In just a few words, morale soared.
"HIM? Yeah, he has a health bar. Way shorter than the Ender Dragon's."
"Probably no different from mine, hahaha!"
"Damn right! Fourth Calamity, baby! If you've got a health bar, we're your worst nightmare!"
"Thinking for yourself? Even your minions have been converted! Let's show him who's boss!"
"Let's go! Show him this game belongs to the players!"
The players were ready, their spirits blazing.
Eternal Radiance smiled with satisfaction.
"Brothers, this fight will make history!"
"Wait—scratch that. We already made history."
"Let's erase HIM's name from this game for good!"
With his command, the players surged through pre-dug tunnels, emerging at the surface.
More than 60,000 players surrounded HIM. They were armed to the teeth. The frontlines were clad in full iron armor, shields raised, some even wielding diamond swords. Even the rear lines weren't lacking.
The strength of the number one guild was undeniable.
