The Boss Behind The Game

“Stop, don’t do it! He’s the Evil King!”

“Hold up, brothers. He’s one of us, one of us!”

“He’s our future sugar daddy, the boss that we’re going to rely on. Don’t do anything stupid!”

“Fuck, the one with the sword, come back. It’s our future boss, make some good impressions!”

…

Listening to the roars within the zone channel, the players who were ready to charge forward stopped instantly. Their faces changed into smiles instantly as they looked at the Evil King with some unknown intent in their eyes.

The Evil King was a little astounded by that.

He had been to many different zones for recruitment. His first meetings with the other forces always started with a battle because nobody was willing to yield to him.

He thought that the same would apply here and the players were just acting. Why did they stop abruptly?

Li Xing, Jason, and the other players rushed over when they received the news. They made their way through the crowd and stood in front of the Evil King.

“I am the leader!” Li Xing was the first to voice out.

After taking in Yin Xiaoqi’s suggestion, the players from the European server had a discussion and concluded that they had to have a leader figure to be able to join forces with the Evil King.

The Zero Guild was the strongest guild in the European server without any question. Therefore having their guild leader, Li Xing, to be their clan leader was expected by all players.

Looking at the leader of the alleged force, a red light flashed across the Evil King’s eyes.

“Good, you have two choices now! Pledge loyalty to me, or die!” the pressure exerted from the Evil King condensed and his momentum heightened as he spoke.

Right when he was ready to emit the pressure to the surrounding players, Li Xing replied suddenly, “We, the Player Clan, choose to pledge loyalty!”

The Evil King’s condensed momentum dispersed immediately.

The players’ actions were not going according to his expectations at all. He was not used to this.

He was entrenching a zone’s force, after all. The process of this submission was smooth, too smooth that it was confusing to him.

“You can address me as the Evil King. All of you are my subordinates from now on. My aim is to be the new king of the Land of Cangxu!” the Evil King spoke again after some thinking.

He initially thought that the players would be shocked or even oppose his wild ambition.

After all, the demolishing of clans in the path to snatch the throne was inevitable as there would be a huge war.

Yet, Li Xing nodded forcefully and said, “Our clan will definitely aid the Evil King with our full effort for you to become His Excellency!”

“Aren’t you all afraid?” the Evil King frowned.

“No… we, the Player Clan, do not fear death and we are a warlike people. It will be our biggest honor to die on a battlefield!”

The Evil King fell into silence by Li Xing’s reply.

After talking to Li Xing, the Evil King’s initial thought was that this clan must be weak with low combat power.

After all, the forces that he met previously were all feisty and they didn’t yield whole-heartedly. He would never be able to get them to surrender to him without utilizing his great powers.

To the Evil King, Li Xing’s forthright acceptance was indicating that they were weaklings.

However, having listened to Li Xing that his clan were warlike people without any fear toward death and dying in a battlefield would be an honor, the Evil King was repulsed and his impression toward the players had gotten worse.

Although they’re weak, I’ll give it to them that they are pretty good at boasting. This was the Evil King’s first impression toward the players.
