The Night Sun

"Yes! That's it! Go!"

Lady Lam was watching the live stream, and she was absolutely thrilled.

Since Hana and Lady Lam had been pulled out, they were now in charge of keeping track of the four players and giving updates.

Hana, being a newcomer, mostly sat quietly and watched.

Especially when they were live.

She was apprehensive about these things.

Lady Lam, Sword of Love, Cherished Dream, and TwinBird all fitted cameras right in front of their in-game characters for the live broadcast.

No One, on the other hand, didn’t do it; he basically didn’t like it.

Hana was also the same, timidly yet attentively watching everyone's stream. She was afraid of being a burden.

The pressure of a newcomer joining a top team was immense.

At this moment, Sword of Love was incredibly excited, continuously slashing at the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.

"Hey, you fool, stop slashing! At this point, you aren't dealing any damage!" Lady Lam shouted into the mic.

Sword of Love seemed indifferent, persistently attacking.

"Ah...!"

Hana gasped.

"Everyone, the Demonic state has appeared!"

No One was startled. He was in the middle of the battle. He couldn’t directly watch the stream.

He was the only one able to deal damage to the boss.Even after unleashing such an explosive attack, it only managed to shave off 5% of the boss's health.

That means the boss's total original health is 55 million.

"Lady Lam, what's the status of the Demonic state?"

Lady Lam was hurriedly checking the streams for any signs of the Demonic phenomenon.

"Ah..."

She was sweating.

"You decide whether to activate the Demonic state or not!"

"After entering the Demonic state, the boss will have a new health bar! The new health bar's value is 100 million!"

"This is the Demonic state information!"

【Lv.200 Phantom of The Demonic Immortal Blade】

【Memories of the Immortal Blade at the moment of turning Demonic flood back. The one she loved most died by the Immortal Blade's own sword. 】

【Demonic Path, Severing Love Karma: Damage becomes Dark damage. If two players are killed, it will enter a Frenzy. Continuously unleashes the Demonic Star Chasing Cleave.】

【Sole Demon: When a beneficial effect is removed, the Demonic state targets and kills the effect remover.】

【Challenge of the Demonic Blade: If the sword of the wielder kills a target, it immediately transitions into the Demonic Blade state. 】

"What the hell?" Sword of Love exclaimed.

The Demonic Blade state? That sounds terrifying!

So the more the Phantom of The Immortal Blade kills, the deeper it falls into demonic ways?

Kill one player, it becomes Demonic.

Kill two players, it becomes a Demonic Blade.Does each state have different buffs?

No One gritted his teeth. Then he chuckled.

"I wasn't expecting things to be easy in the first place."

"Lady Lam, has anyone forced the boss into the Sword Demonic state yet?"

"Not yet, everyone died after it turned Demonic."

No One nodded. His hands continuously slashed at the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.

Since the fight began, it had only received damage without retaliating.

"Everyone, keep fighting. If anyone other than Sword of Love dies, Sword of Love should use Principles Cleave immediately."

"What!? Won't that instantly turn it into the Sword Demonic state?" Sword of Love complained.

"Exactly, you fool," Lady Lam replied.

She bit her nails, her eyes glued to the screen.

"Do you really think we're going to defeat the boss this time around?"

Sword of Love calmed down and nodded.

"That's right. What we need is information. The essence of mastering a mechanic is information," No One continued.

Right now, the most crucial thing is to figure out what buffs the Sword Demonic state will have.

The Phantom of The Immortal Blade seemed to be waiting for something.

No One kept slashing and simultaneously instructed Lady Lam.

"Lady Lam, what's the attack sequence when the Phantom of The Immortal Blade starts fighting?"

"It's unclear when the Immortal Blade will attack, but most of the team buffs one person to dodge the purple strike. After that, three others are defeated, causing the boss to enter the Demonic state."

"Only then did they start dealing damage to the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.""Just like us, the Phantom of The Immortal Blade hasn't attacked at all."

Strange.

Usually, bosses are extremely aggressive, attacking non-stop.

But this Phantom of The Immortal Blade keeps taking damage without striking back?

So be it. No One continued to deal damage.

If the boss isn't doing anything, showing no signs of attacking, then it's best to keep dealing damage.

So what if we get wiped out? I'm not afraid.

Mastering mechanics is born from being wiped out!

Our deaths only make us stronger.

The stream of the Moonlight Clan is becoming increasingly popular.

It has officially reached the top stream in the First World.

For the sole reason: he has soloed the boss down to nearly 90%!

The chat started buzzing continuously.

"Damn it. The game developers still have bugs after six months? The boss has been hit nearly to 90% and hasn't budged?"

"Or perhaps they didn't anticipate the Blade Dancer class dealing such precise damage?"

"Hurry, come and watch!I want to see if the boss will do anything at 10%!]

Usually, bosses have health thresholds that trigger special mechanics.

90%, 60%, 30%, 10% and so on.

Right now, everyone is holding their breath. The boss has reached 91%.

Suddenly.

Just one more strike, and the boss's health will drop to 90%.

Something unprecedented in the First World occurred.

Time in the game suddenly stood still.

【Warning】

【The next attack will trigger a Hidden Storyline leading to the True Ending. Are you sure you want to execute the attack?】

What is this?

"Oh."

"Oh oh oh oh oh!!!!"

It's madness. Complete madness!!!!!

Now, all the streaming channels have turned to the Moonlight Clan.

Broadcasting live to tens of millions of viewers.

In that moment, someone noticed.

The official account of the First World has also tuned in!

[HIDDEN STORYLINE!? STORYLINE!!!]

[HOLY CRAP, BEEN PLAYING FOR OVER A YEAR, FINALLY THERE’S A STORYLINE!!]

[THIS IS NOT SOME SILLY GAME, I PLAY FOR THE STORYLINE!]

[FOR GOD'S SAKE, JUST STRIKE, DELIVER THAT BLOW FOR US!]

[STRIKE. STRIKE!]

[STRIKE!]

[STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE!]

The chat on the channel nearly exploded with the word Strike.

This one strike. Will it unlock the storyline for the First World?

No One was sweating.

But he laughed, a victorious laugh.

Here, this is it.

The reason he plays the game.

This feeling!

Amidst the storm of chat messages, everything people said was swept away.There was a chat message from the official account of the game.

[First World Official: Unleash the new chapter of this world, young man.]

"What are you saying? I can't hear you clearly!!!!?" Great Lady Lam opened the voice chat on stream and shouted loudly.

"Shout it out for me!"

"I'm in Cross City, I'm opening my window now, and I want to hear the word Strike!!!!!!"

No One couldn't hold back his laughter.

The game was currently in a Pause state. Lady Lam was so thrilled she was about to go crazy.

Before Lady Lam could open the window, she heard countless people shouting from balconies.

"Damn it! Strike right away for me!"

"Strike! Strike down! You're not a monk, don't drop the blade! Swing it!"

"My neck is getting tired! I'm shouting while turning my head to watch the stream, strike quickly!!!"

Lady Lam opened the window and shouted directly.

"Okay!!!!!

"No One, strike down or I'll kick you from the guild!!!!"

Seriously?

Damn it.

I would do it even without you telling me.

STRIKE!

Time and space began to move again.

This one strike came down.The Phantom leaped backward abruptly. Dodged it.

Huh?

No One was stunned.

Then it lowered its stance, preparing to draw its sword.

Wait.

This stance.

Hold on a second.

"This Sword, Shall Cleave Not Men But The Principles," the Phantom of The Immortal Blade announced at this moment.

????

What the heck?

Do you have any idea how many buffs I have right now?

Even I can't keep track of them all!

【This Sword, Shall Cleave Not Men But The Principles】

Slash.

A single sweep cut across the entire map.

Directly killing all four players.

Team annihilation.

For a few seconds, the chat channel fell completely silent.

It highlighted the message from the official channel as if they knew they had just pulled a fast one on the whole community.

[First World Official: Haha. This is killing me with laughter.]

The four players directly returned to the respawn point.

But at this moment, the real fear had just begun.

【Lv69 No 11 HP 1/1】

【Lv69 Making Love with the Sword HP 1/1】

【Lv69 TwinBird HP 1/1】

【Lv69 Cherished Dream HP 1/1】

What the heck.

Did it actually reduce players' HP limit to just 1 point?

The chat started spamming once again.

[Sorry developers. Please don't introduce bosses like this anymore; the game has no bugs.]

[The game has no bugs. The boss is the bug.]

[Dear developers, please don't release any more bosses like this.]

At 90% HP Bar, You're fooling the players?

Copying the strongest skill, then attacking the entire team!? What the hell !?
