MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks

“I’ll give you the throne in five days!”

“Brother Yi, you’re the big brother I never had…”

Fatty was so happy that he did not even know what to do with his hands. He was this close to hugging Li Yi and showering him with kisses/

While Li Yi declared that he would give Fatty the throne in five days, on the other hand, Defiantly Tyrannical was making bold claims of his own.

“We’re taking Savage City in five days. How dare those f*ckers try to be independent on my turf! Do they have a death wish?”

Ever since Defiantly Tyrannical took the throne, he had never once stopped waging war. He fought from dawn to dusk, inciting dissatisfaction all over the country. Every day, countless people reminisced about the good ol’ days under Queen Jiao.

“Defiant Tyrant? More like F*cking Idiot Tyrant! Get off the throne, f*cker!”

“Tyrannical, Imma f*ck your lil sister…”

“Shoo shoo, scram, go away…”

Such voices were echoed constantly in the Defiant Continent’s National Channel.

Compared to Jiaojiao’s reign, Defiantly Tyrannical’s current era was unspeakably bad.

The Treasury being empty was not his fault, but his problem was that he could not even assure his people. The moment anyone pissed him off, even if it was something as trivial as insulting him once, he would still fly off the handle and exact the full force of his revenge on them.

Such an attitude was perfect for a brigand leader, but it was rather inappropriate of a king.

As though to prove that point, Defiantly Tyrannical gave the order to attack the Ninth Continent just a few days after taking the throne, while the country was still unstable, all so he could boost his reputation and insult the Iron Alliance members who defected.

He used all three King’s Orders and gathered more than five million players, sauntering toward the Ninth Continent.

The result? He did not even touch any of the opponent’s major cities. Instead, he was struck by an ambush at the Abyssal Canyon Crevice and his troops scattered. Defiantly Tyrannical himself was killed more than twenty times, and the attempt ended in abysmal defeat.

After the Ninth Continent absorbed the Iron Alliance’s elites, they had truly become the strongest force in King of Pantheon.

“You defecting dogs, I spit in your faces!”

Defiantly Tyrannical could not beat the Ninth Continent, so he spammed the World Channel, insulting the defectors. It was clearly an attempt to rile them up.

Two could play at that game. Once someone started the argument, someone else would retaliate, so for the past few days, there had been arguments raging all over the World Channel. Both sides had long since sunk countless Gold Coins into this.

…

As soon as Li Yi left, Defiantly Tyrannical contacted Chen Yang and made his intentions very clear. In a completely unveiled threat, he tried to force Chen Yang to give him control of Savage City.

“Hand the city to me, and we’re friends. If you won’t do it, I’ll attack!” Defiantly Tyrannical never minced his words.

“Scram! I’ll only talk to your sister.” Chen Yang was even more brutal. He knew that Defiantly Tyrannical had a cute younger sister, so he kept targeting that.

‘You wanna work me up? Sure, I’ll do the same to you.’

“Motherf*cker, you’d better wash your neck! I’ll kill you until you quit, or my name isn’t Defiantly Tyrannical!”

“I’ll be waiting, punk!”

With Li Yi behind him, Chen Yang was not afraid of Defiantly Tyrannical at all.

Tensions rose between the two of them. Even before the fighting began, things were starting to get tense.

Chen Yang was not worried at all. He had complete faith in Li Yi.

‘In five days, your throne’s mine!’

After he made Chen Yang that promise, Li Yi did not do anything differently at all. Just like before, he logged on every day and ran the Starting Point City quests. Otherwise, he would run all over the world, trying to convince NPCs to join.

Other than that, he did nothing else.

The Tower of Remorse had not cooled down yet, and Li Yi did not intend to bribe the guard with money. After all, he was in no rush to switch classes, so he had all the time in the world.

Starting Point City was developing at a breakneck speed. Its unique location and the special NPCs Li Yi recruited meant that 90% of the players running the Ancient King Dungeon would enter this city for supplies. Although it cost 1 Gold Coin to enter the city each time, who would not pay such a small token in exchange for the convenience?

Now, Starting Point City earned several hundreds of thousands in Gold Coins every day, just from the entrance fee alone.

On the other hand, the Defiant Continent’s Celestial Capital found its Prosperity Value dropping every day. It was now in constant danger of entering the Disastrous Ruin State.

On the third day after Li Yi made that promise to Chen Yang, Defiantly Tyrannical led his army of three hundred thousand to Starting Point City.

The punk had a great idea. He had long since considered Li Yi his mortal enemy, so even though Li Yi had migrated, there was no way he would let Li Yi go. As he watched Starting Point City develop with each day, he immediately rallied his troops to attack.

“Destroy it all!”

Defiantly Tyrannical’s motto was extremely overbearing.

“Wooooo dum dum dum…”

A horn sounded inside Starting Point City, and the Kannon prince, the Sword of Kannon, Bahanuq rode his black horse to meet the army.

Behind Bahanuq, there were the twenty-four Ancient Kings, and further back, their most trusted followers.

“Who dares attack our borders?!”

Bahanuq pointed a finger at Defiantly Tyrannical and spurred his horse forth. Swinging his two-handed greatsword, he produced a beautiful blade aura that killed off several hundred of Defiantly Tyrannical’s elites with one blow.

When the twenty-five kings were defending a city, they were even more powerful than they had been in their dungeons. Defiantly Tyrannical had only recently received his Territory, but even if he was as powerful as Li Yi, there was still no way he could win against several powered-up bosses.

“Aroooo…”

“Rooaar…”

The army behind the twenty-five kings surged forth like a tide. What was Defiantly Tyrannical’s army in the face of that?

They did not have the power to resist as they were wiped out by the monster army.

The monsters picked up all of the equipment that Defiantly Tyrannical and the others dropped. They were Starting Point City’s defensive troops, so naturally, the equipment they received would go to the major city’s inventory.

From the beginning of the battle to the end, not a single player from Starting Point City even showed up, but Defiantly Tyrannical’s army of three hundred thousand was destroyed anyway.

Defiantly Tyrannical lay on the ground, motionless for the longest time. I Love Beast Beast and Yang Xingchen called him several dozen times, but he pretended not to hear them.

He was throwing a tantrum…

What was Starting Point City? That was where the Emperor of the Continent stayed. How could the Emperor suppress the other three continents without a certain degree of power? If they did not have that power, this place would be constantly bombarded with war, no?

“Tyrannical, we’ll get there someday! Let’s retreat for now, we’ll settle him later!”

“Brother Tyrannical, can you hear us? Get up, let’s go back.”

“F*ck…”

Defiantly Tyrannical said one word, and then his body vanished.

As soon as Defiantly Tyrannical resurrected in the Celestial Capital, the red system notification pissed him right off again.

[The Defiant Continent’s Prosperity Value has dropped below the Alarm Level. The taxes have increased and the people are frantic…]

[The Celestial Capital’s original residents are migrating en masse. Robberies and arson have skyrocketed in certain areas…]

[The Defiant Continent Celestial Capital’s Security Value has dropped by 500 points. As a result, the Defiant Continent’s other major cities are seeing a decrease in Prosperity Value. Certain major cities are seeing an increase in robberies and arson, resulting in mass migration…]

Defiantly Tyrannical was so angry that he was rendered speechless. It was a long time before he finally squeezed out a “Motherf*cker!”

“Ding!”

Defiantly Tyrannical heard another ring, and things went from bad to worse for him.

[The ruler of the Defiant Empire, Defiantly Tyrannical, has proven to be an incompetent ruler. The Emperor of the Continent, Brother Windcloud Nine, is furious, and he thereby decrees that Defiantly Tyrannical is stripped of his throne as King, electing Tall and Mighty in his place.]

[Player Tall and Mighty has become King of the Eastern Continent. Let us celebrate for him…]

“Ba-thump!”

Defiantly Tyrannical’s eyes rolled back in his head and he collapsed backward.

The series of unfortunate effects had hit him so hard that he fainted.

“Tyrannical, Tyrannical, Tyrannical…”

His friends ran to his side, yelling his name…

…
