22 Demonized Overlord - Sin Demon

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After the Star Ascension, he still had 11,092 Star Level 0 Fragments remaining.

These fragments could be exchanged at a 100: 1 ratio in the Reputation Shop.

Mo Fan exchanged them for 110 Star Level 1 Fragments.

[Star Level Fragment: 140/100 (Star Ascension Possible)]

He clicked on the button once again.

A golden light flashed, and he grew to 5 stars.

After reaching 5 stars, his three main attributes increased by 1200. His Attack, Defense, and HP also increased by a huge margin.

His name is also longer again.

"Pioneer-Sturdy-Agile-Vigorous-Nimble Scarecrow Overlord Strawly."

"…"

Mo Fan looked at the name extending from his head and his mouth fell open.

It was too long!

Fortunately, he gained a lot of attribute points after the upgrade.

Furthermore, after two Star Ascensions, he also obtained two decent traits.

[Vigorous Trait: Max HP +10%, Attack Speed +10%]

[Nimble Trait: Dexterity +10%, Movement Speed +10%]

With these two traits, Mo Fan's movement speed and attack speed became even higher.

Mo Fan experienced it for himself.

Previously, he could run five meters a second. But now, he could run nine meters a second.

His movement speed was much faster than the average player's.

His attack speed was previously three times per second, but now it was four times per second.

Mo Fan was eager to give his newly acquired strength a try when he saw his increased attributes and the Demonized Vengeful Spirits in the distance.

He brought Little Chrysanthemum along and started the next round of farming.

He could insta-kill monsters before the upgrade. Now, the situation remained the same.

However, the speed at which the pair killed monsters was much faster than before.

In the past, he could only kill 10,000 Demonized Vengeful Spirits in half an hour.

But now, in just 20 minutes, he killed 10,000 of them.

As a result, he reached Level 19.

Mo Fan looked…

Going from Level 19 to 20 required 200 million Spiritual Energy Points!

It was yet again another hurdle.

After reaching Level 19, killing a Demonized Vengeful Spirit only gave 500 points of Spiritual Energy.

If he wanted to reach Level 20, he would have to kill 400,000 Demonized Vengeful Spirits.

That was simply a terrifying number.

With his current grinding speed, he had to continuously farm for more than 13 hours!

He would not be able to reach Level 20 anytime soon.

After killing 10,000 Demonized Vengeful Spirits this time, the surroundings soon became filled with black fog.

Kuang Dao soon came out.

This time, Mo Fan did not waste his breath and immediately went up to him for a fight.

-83,192

-93,390 (Bleeding)

-76,327

-81,264

It has not even a second since the fight started yet Kuang Dao had already lost 520,000 HP!

After the Star Ascension, coupled with the additional attributes from his skin, his attack had become ridiculously high.

Even the three million HP that Kuang Dao had didn't pose any trouble to Mo Fan anymore.

Kuang Dao only managed to hit Mo Fan four times before he fell lifelessly onto the ground. With his death, he dropped another two pieces of the Demonized Vengeful Spirit Set.

"Ah, how good this feels!"

"Earlier, I need cannon fodder to fight Kuang Dao, but now I can do it on my own with ease."

[System Notification: Due to your killing spree in the Demonized Land, you have attracted the attention of the Demonized Overlord. 10 seconds later, the Demonized Overlord will appear in the Demonized Land.]

Before Mo Fan could pick up his equipment, however, a fierce gust of wind blew at him.

But instead of being anxious, he became excited when he heard the system notification.

His theory was correct.

After killing Kuang Dao three times, he managed to lure out a stronger Boss.

Upon hearing the name Demonized Overlord, he knew that the Boss this time was not simple.

Mo Fan stared at the place where Kuang Dao had died and he raised his guard.

However, no black fog appeared this time.

The surrounding Demonized Vengeful Spirits fled into the distance as if they had encountered a terrifying monster.

However, these Demonized Vengeful Spirits did not get that far before they exploded into clumps of black energy. And as if being guided by something, the black energy gathered toward the place where Kuang Dao had died.

Mo Fan also felt that something was amiss.

It was as if something was trying to drill out of his body.

The sensation was extremely uncomfortable.

"What's going on?"

"Could it be because I have the Demonized Vengeful Spirit bloodline in my body?"

"Damn it! This Boss is causing such a huge commotion even before coming out?"

After the thing in Mo Fan's body failed to come out, it seemed to start exerting a physical force.

It felt like the thing inside of him was a metal being attracted to a magnet.

He stabbed the Demonized Coiling Dragon Spear into the ground and tried his best to control his body from flying forward.

Fortunately, ten seconds was a very short amount of time.

Mo Fan's body finally stabilized.

A black humanoid monster appeared before him.

There were horns on its head and scales all over its body.

It also had a pair of black wings on its back.

[Demonized Overlord - Sin Demon (Level 60 Gold Rank Boss)]

"You hybrid b*stard, how dare you be so arrogant in my territory? You must be tired of living!"

Sin Demon's small red eyes stared at Mo Fan as he slowly walked over.

Mo Fan realized that he could not move and a debuff had appeared on his body.

[Sin Demon's Might: You are within the Sin Demon's field of vision and are suppressed by its Demonic Might. You will not be able to move for 10 seconds. All attributes will be reduced by 50%.]

F*ck, this boss is so OP?!

I am a wild monster, why would it lower my attributes?

Mo Fan roared in his heart.

After Sin Demon walked over, he circled around Mo Fan with a puzzled look.

"Not only is your a b*stard, but your also a heretic? No wonder…"

Sin Demon nodded repeatedly as he spoke.

"Hey, what exactly do you want? What is this place? How do I get out?" Mo Fan asked.

He didn't feel anything just now, but now that Sin Demon was beside him.

He could feel fear rising in his heart for unknown reasons.

It was as if he was born with this fear.

Mo Fan immediately became a little nervous.

Was this the effect of Demonic Might?

Was there a need to make this game so realistic?

"Not bad, not bad!"

"Hahaha!"

Sin Demon did not answer Mo Fan's question.

Instead, he looked at Mo Fan while nodding his head continuously before laughing out loud.

His laughter was ear-piercing to Mo Fan.

-1000 (Laughter Damage)

…

Looking at the red damage numbers floating above his head, Mo Fan's mouth twitched.

He actually lost HP just by hearing this Boss's laughter!

"Hey, stop laughing! I'm going to die if you continue laughing!"

Mo Fan shouted and stabbed Sin Demon with his spear.

Sin Demon's reaction speed was extremely fast.

Mo Fan's attack missed.

Sin Demon made a sidelong glance at Mo Fan and finally stopped laughing.

He then said playfully. "Kid, do you want to become stronger?"

"Of course I do! Can you stop using your Demonic Might first?"

When Mo Fan saw Sin Demon's expression, he knew that this Sin Demon was interested in him, so he did not hold back with his words.

"Hmm… I forgot you're still a brat."

Just as Sin Demon finished speaking, the [Sin Demon's Might] debuff on Mo Fan disappeared.

"Why? You want to take me in as your disciple?"

Mo Fan—who had returned to normal—asked cautiously.

"I, Sin Demon, never take in disciples. I just want to make a deal with you."

Sin Demon had a look of disdain, as if someone like Mo Fan was not qualified to be his disciple.

"It's fine if you want to make a deal. First, tell me where this place is and how I can leave." Mo Fan immediately asked the question he was very concerned about.

"This is the underground of the beginner village. If you want to leave this place, it's very simple. You just need to pass through the underground barrier." Sin Demon said calmly, as if this was no secret at all.

Mo Fan did not expect this place to be beneath the beginner village.

After his death, he revived in a random place after all.

In other words, he had only been lucky enough to respawn here.

After all, this underground area was also considered as a part of the beginner village.

"Where is the underground barrier? How do I get there?" Mo Fan asked again.

"There's no hurry. Let's talk about our deal first!"

Sin Demon chuckled and waved his hand.

"What deal?" Mo Fan felt that this Sin Demon was a little strange.

"It's very simple. I'll help you comprehend Demonic Might. In return, what I need you to do is to bring me out of this realm after you've reached the upper limit of this realm."

After Sin Demon finished speaking, a virtual panel popped up in front of Mo Fan.

[Do you accept the Legendary Mission from [Demonic Might Sin Demon]?]

Mo Fan thought for two seconds before confirming his acceptance.

Although he did not know what this was about, he agreed after seeing the word legendary.

"Very good, I'll help you comprehend Demonic Might right now.."

Once Sin Demon's words fell, he grabbed Mo Fan and flapped his wings twice before flying up.

After Mo Fan left the ground, he lost his balance and struggled frantically.

But before he could react, he found himself close to a dark pool.

As for how he got there, Mo Fan had no idea how…

But before he could think deeper into it, he was directly thrown into the pool by Sin Demon.

[System Notification: You have entered the Demonized Pool!]

[System Notification: You are currently in the demonized state. Your health points will decrease continuously.]

-3000 (Demonic Energy Corruption)

…

Mo Fan looked at the numbers floating above his head in shock.

"Hey, Sin Demon, what's going on? Didn't you want to help me comprehend Demonic Might?"

Mo Fan reacted quickly and shouted in the pool.

However, Sin Demon who was by the pool rested with his eyes closed.

His expression remained indifferent.

It was as if he did not want to say another word to Mo Fan after completing the deal.

Mo Fan wanted to come out of the pool!

[System Notification: Demonized state, unable to move!]

What the heck?!

Was he going to die?

Does he have to die to comprehend Demonic Might?

Although he had more than 900,000 HP at this moment, he could not possibly last long considering how fast his HP was being deleted.

At this rate, he would be dead in five minutes!

Seeing that he was losing more and more HP, Mo Fan started to panic.

I don't have any revival attempts left!

"Sin Demon, what are you doing? Hurry up and get me out of here!" Mo Fan shouted again. This time, he shouted louder than before.

"Alright, alright, stop your hollering. Don't worry, you won't die!"

"So many people want to enter this Demonized Pool, but you actually want to come out so fast?"

Sin Demon shook his head and replied impatiently.

After hearing what Sin Demon said, Mo Fan was finally relieved.

He no longer cared about the damage numbers floating above his head.

Five minutes later, his HP fell to 1.

[Pioneer… Strawly (Level 19) HP: 1/933,900]

Following that, [-3000 (Demonic Energy Corruption)] kept appearing and floating above his head.

However, his HP remained at 1.

So that was how it was!

He was scared to death!

After ten minutes, Mo Fan felt something enter his body.

His restless heart was soothed by a cool breeze.

Then, a powerful force surged out from his body.

The force seemed as if it wanted to burst out of his body.

In addition, another wave of power rushed into his eyes. He felt his eyes swell when the power made its entrance.

What came next was a series of system notifications.

[System Notification: Congratulations on comprehending [Mortal Demonic Might (Small)]!]

[System Notification: Congratulations on creating [Mortal Demon Body]!]

[System Notification: Congratulations on comprehending [Mortal Demon Eyes]!]
