How would people describe Slaughtererâs Eye Guildâs Zhang Mumu?
In short, he was like a triad boss. He was someone that cleverly exploited the fact that Athenae was a game to commit any and all kinds of crimes like murder, arson, plundering, blackmail and many more. His evil methods were immeasurable and gut-wrenching.
So far, the empires and kingdoms turned a blind eye to Zhang Mumu and his guildâs actions. This was because dealing with them was not an easy feat and they were sure that they would suffer huge losses if they tried to clean up the Slaughtererâs Eye Guild.
Because of that, Zhang Mumuâs nose reached the skies. He became arrogant and conceited, reigning like a king inside Athenae and amassing great wealth, even in reality.
But what about now? Right now, Zhang Mumuâs eyes were filled with dread and terror. His entire body was trembling like a leaf being blown by the wind.
Zhang Mumuâs mind was muddled, he could not understand what Minhyuk just said. Who would dare to tell him to bark like that? However, everything was false bravado. Even his shaking body was telling the world that he was afraid.
Zhang Mumu flew back the moment Minhyukâs fist collided with him.
Zhang Mumu finally realized why everything had turned quiet outside. It was because the three people in front of him had truly brought everyone, his guild members and his troops, down to their knees. But Zhang Mumu was also someone that had completed a high class transfer. He was also among the top fighter rankers, and was a master of Chinese martial arts. He would not easily go down like that.
Zhang Mumu kicked off the ground as he jumped towards Minhyuk, his fists aiming for Minhyukâs neck. But then, a small red shield, Asuraâs Shield, appeared and protected Minhyukâs neck.
The effects of âExplosionâ mode engraved on Minhyukâs sword displayed its power the moment he swung his sword, forcing Zhang Mumu to fly back helplessly out of the door. That was when Zhang Mumu saw a few Slaughtererâs Eye Guild survivors still at the scene of carnage. He heaved a sigh of relief after knowing that there were more survivors than what he expected.
But then, he caught sight of Minhyuk cracking his fingers and warming up his wrists as he walked towards him.
âWhat the hell are you guys doing?!! Hurry up and kill these bastards!!!â Zhang Mumu shouted, believing that the remaining survivors would fight for him and buy him some time. ButâŠ
âWeâre going to die either wayâŠâ
âI canât. Doing that will make me drop my weapons since Iâm full chaotic.â
Zhang Mumu felt like he had been hit by a hammer on the head. These were the people that were trying to lick his toes and suck up to him just a few moments prior. But now? They were taking care of themselves and calculating the best way to receive less damage. After all, this was the Slaughtererâs Eye Guild. They were a murdererâs guild that only gathered members that were after benefits and profits. Zhang Mumu had given them enough independence and freedom, to the point that their respect for their guild master had turned to dust.
âThese, these f*cking bastards!!! Canât you see that Iâm in danger right now?!!!â
Zhang Mumu was currently in a very, very dangerous state. He tried to command his guild members but his words were useless.
The word engraved on the blade of Minhyukâs sword changed to âCrazyâ as he struck Zhang Mumu once again. Already on the floor, Zhang Mumu tried to somehow get up and run away but before he could do soâŠ
âŠMinhyukâs sword pierced through his shoulders.
âUgh. Aaaaaack! Uwaaaaaaack! No. These damn bastards!!!â
Zhang Mumu was someone that had gained a sub-class after becoming the leader of the worst murderer guild in existence. It was none other than âThe King of the Wickedâ.
The sub-class had an amazing effect that allowed a 5% increase in the sales of looted items, as well as a shocking increase in the chaotic playersâ abilities. The increase in abilities were only slight and would depend on the chaotic levels of the players under him, but it was still very shocking.
However, in return for these shocking and beneficial effects, Zhang Mumu would receive a terrible penalty. Upon death, Zhang Mumu would be subjected to 15x more severe penalties than normal players. Not only would he lose his stats, he would also drop all of his artifacts and even his treasured gold.
âIf you kill the Food God, I will reward you with 1,000 platinum!!! Thatâs why, moveâŠ!â
ââŠGM, why donât you do it yourself?â
âHow can we even kill the Food God?â
Everything was falling apart. This was how bad the situation was for the Slaughtererâs Eye Guild.
âHey, can you really say that to the GM?â
âWho cares. The guild is already f*cked anyway. Besides, he doesnât even know and would probably never remember my face.â
âHey, hey. Letâs film this. We can make money out of this.â
âLetâs put the title as: The Food Godâs True Education, teaching Zhang Mumu~â
Then, they started filming, the commentators quickly starting their tirade while the viewers laughed and mocked. This was how the Slaughtererâs Eye Guild, a guild that was almost on par with a kingdom, collapsed overnight.
âThe GM looks like a moron.â
âHe was a moron to begin with. Tsk.â
âShit, you m**herf*ckers!!!â
Not a single surviving guild member ran to save Zhang Mumu. Zhang Mumu could only stare wide-eyed as Minhyuk finally stood in front of him.
One of the recent videos about Beyond the Heavens Kingdom suddenly flashed in Zhang Mumuâs head. In that video, they all fought together, wept together, and shared the joy of victory together. Minhyukâs retainers fought for him, while he threw himself at the frontlines and fought for them too.
In the end, Zhang Mumuâs string of reasons snapped, âAh, ahihihihihihi. Uhihihihihihi! Do you think Iâll tell you where Akhan is?! Youâll never find him! I will never open my moâŠâ
Minhyuk stabbed Zhang Mumuâs neck without any hesitation, along with that a series of notifications rang in Zhang Mumuâs head.
[You have been forced to log out by Minhyuk.]
[You have the King of the Wicked class.]
[You will receive fifteen times the normal amount of penalty for forced log out. Access Restriction is not applicable.]
[You have been forced to log out by the Saviorâs Companion!]
[The penalty for someone logged out by the Saviorâs Companion will increase!]
[You will drop all of the platinum in your inventory.]
[You have dropped the Aphro Earrings.]
[You have dropped Mâbai Axe.]
[You have dropped a Supreme Beingâs Winged Galloping Boots.]
[âŠWater Spirit KingâsâŠ]
Minhyuk frowned after watching Zhang Mumu disappear. He said, â38,000 platinumâŠ?â
The amount was large enough to let a kingdom run smoothly for an entire month. This was a testament to the many lives that Zhang Mumu took away. Then, Minhyuk turned to Lu Bai and said, âLu Bai, are you really sure about this?â
âYeah. Iâm sure. The Saviorâs Confinement also has the effect that restricts the opponent for an hour which would stop them from escaping. Since Zhang Mumu is completely on the other end of my spectrum, thereâs an added effect where I will be able to see and monitor his position and movements for a month. The party involved is unaware of this. Itâs like those GPS trackers planted secretly on targets in movies.â
This was the reason why Minhyuk killed Zhang Mumu easily and without any hesitation.
Zhang Mumu went out of his capsule with a lost and dazed expression, reeling from the huge penalty that he received, but at the same time he also felt relieved.
âIâll have to lie low for a while.â
Since he turned Athenae into his business, there was no way for him to leave it. He had to play the game. However, he thought that he should do covert operation in the meantime and work behind the scenes.
Zhang Mumu immediately transferred to Hayden Village upon accessing the game. He quickly replaced the equipment on him from those that he stored in the warehouse, and also bought quality artifacts from merchants. He also packed his wallet with platinum that he stored from the warehouse again.
Just when he was about to move to meet with the guildâs branch managers and executivesâŠ
Someone stabbed him from the back, his body turning cold.
[You have been forced to log out by Minhyuk.]
[You have the King of the Wicked class.]
[You will receive fifteen times the normal amount of penalty for forced log outâŠ]
Zhang Mumu could not understand what had happened. Only one thing was certain, it was the Food God that killed him.
âItâs all a coincidence. He just happened to show up where I was.â
Other than that explanation, nothing else would make sense.
The next day, Zhang Mumu was eating to fill his fullness stat that had already reached the bottom, at the same time, he also refilled his pockets with platinum and equipped himself with artifacts.
âDamn it. Iâve received more than a hundred damage and itâs all because of the Food GodâŠâ
Just as Zhang Mumu was about to scoop another spoonful of foodâŠ
[You have been forced to log out by Minhyuk.]
[You have the King of the Wicked class.]
[You will receive fifteen times the normal amount of penalty for forced log outâŠ]
The next day, as he ran anxiously to escape far awayâŠ
[You have been forced to log out by Minhyuk.]
[You have the King of the Wicked class.]
[You will receive fifteen times the normal amount of penalty for forced log outâŠ]
The next day, while Zhang Mumu breathed a sigh of relief after an hour of completing thirty random teleportsâŠ
âHe would not be able to chase me hereâŠâ
[You have been forced to log out by Minhyuk.]
[You have the King of the Wicked class.]
[You will receive fifteen times the normal amount of penalty for forced log outâŠ]
As soon as Zhang Mumu accessed the game, he died. He even had fifteen times more penalty than the others. The worst part? Since the one that killed him was the Saviorâs Companion, the penalty that he incurred each time reached as high as twenty times the normal penalty.
In just a few days, Zhang Mumuâs level had dropped by fifty. His anxiety began to grow to unprecedented levels after experiencing death every time he logged inside Athenae. Eventually, he lost his mind.
With every death and access, plenty of members of the Slaughtererâs Eye Guild left. In a span of a few short days, the once majestic and untouchable Slaughtererâs Eye Guild began to thread the path of destruction.
Zhang Mumu was left with no other choice but to choose the path that he would take.
Chinaâs top game broadcasting station, A+TV, had monopolized nearly 50% of the viewership ratings of all game broadcasting stations. The fact that China boasted the largest land and population meant that their influence and scope was extremely vast and wide.
A+TVâs crew was currently logging in to Athenae to start filming. A+TVâs PD Ni Dahongâs expectations for this filming was very high.
âI canât believe Akhan contacted me personally.â
Akhan was the one that created a huge buzz in the world after his recent invasion attempt at Asgan Continent. Akhan had contacted Ni Dahong because he had gathered the Demon Worshipperâs Elders to hold a ceremony that would unseal and summon Great Demon Verus. Most of the people were quite reluctant and had evaded Akhan because of his questionable deeds but the fact that he could create a huge impact was true. Akhan even revealed his intention to gather his followers and work hard to gain power.
The live broadcast immediately started. The reactions on the broadcast? Of course they were explosive. The problem wasâŠ
âWhat the hell is that?!â
There were fifteen demon worshippers wearing black robes. These fifteen demon worshippers were known to have reached the highest rank among all of the demon worshippers. With these people gathered together, it was only natural that it became a huge issue. However, the problem was the tens of thousands of sheeps lined up behind them.
It was clear that those lives would be sacrificed to honor Great Demon Verus. However, that did not matter. What mattered here was that they would have a chance to take a glimpse at Great Demon Verus, the demon that Food God Minhyuk had temporarily sealed, today.
âWill it really be alrightâŠâ
âPD Ni! Look behind you! There are women and children there too!â
A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.
Looking closely, there were plenty of women and children bound tightly among the sheep. At that moment, PD Ni Dahong felt his head turn blank. The only thought running in his head, âThis is crazyâŠ! Even if they are NPCs, no one would want to see women and children dying like that!!!â
âSt, stop the live broadcast!!!â
âPD, we have reached over 30% in viewership ratings already.â
Was Akhan truly this powerful and influential? Then, A+TVâs general director hurriedly rushed inside the room as the monitor displayed the demon worshippers sprinkling oil and gas on the sheep, the women and the children.
The general director hurriedly cried out, âCut, cut off the live broadcast for a moment!!! Donât let the viewers see them burning!!!â
âB, but⊠if we do that then it would become an unusual broadcasting accidentâŠâ
âThe broadcasting accident is not the problem here!!! If you donât stop that then our heads will all roll!!!â
The general director grabbed his hair tightly. Even though Akhan could give them high ratings, which was good, the rebuke and criticisms that they would receive was too much.
Then, Akhan was shown on the screen walking towards the sheep, the women, and the children with a torch in hand.
âCut it off, faaaaaaaaaast!!!â
âQuick! Move quickly!â
âWeâre cutting it off now!!!â
The entire broadcasting station was brought into a huge uproar. But then, at that moment, PD Ni Dahong saw something on the screen.
âEveryone, stop moviiiiiiiing!!!â PD Ni Dahong shouted loudly, bringing the broadcasting station to a standstill. Then, he continued, âFrom now on, whichever bastard moves dies!!!â
This was the very same PD Ni Dahong who was known for his gentle personality. Seeing PD Ni react like that, the general director turned furious. He shouted, âHey, you bastard, have you gone crazâŠ!â
âCamera 1, Camera 4 give me a close up!â
The cameras zoomed in according to PD Niâs instructions and showed the fifteen demon worshippers. Among them, one face looked extremely familiar.
âThe, the Food God?!â
âGeneral director, trust me on this one. This live broadcast⊠will be an unprecedented success. It will be a huge hit. Believe me.â
âWhat, what? Hey, why arenât you cutting it off!!!!â
Everyone turned to look at PD Ni Dahong.
âThe Food God has declared war against Akhan, and the people laughed and mocked him. But Food God Minhyuk destroyed the Slaughtererâs Eye Guild and had now appeared in front of Akhan.â
The general directorâs thoughts spun quickly. He could tell that this will give them the highest rating to be ever recorded in their history.
âIf Food God Minhyuk does something dramatic and huge here, then this broadcast will achieve the highest rating that our station has ever recorded.â
âS, something dramatic?! What something huge?!â The general director hurriedly asked.
Then, on the monitor, the disguised worshiper Minhyuk snatched the torch that Akhan threw in the air, approached him andâŠ
âŠslapped him on the cheek.
And it was also a double whammy.
The viewership ratings of A+TV broadcasting station began to soar to new heights.
