I Get Stronger by Killing Players, and I Make the Whole World Cry!

[Reborn in another world + specialized skill traits + plot-driven + mechanic-heavy boss + public enemy + Black Knight, the king of nerfs]

The game arrived, and the world collapsed.

Lin Hao was reborn on the launch day of Conquer the Demons, but found himself in the body of a disposable demon sent to the newbie village. Not only did he have to face players known as The Fourth Calamity, but the native NPCs posed a threat as well. His situation was dire.

Fortunately, he awakened the bloodline talent [Slaughter Unleashed]. Killing players granted him skill points, which he could use to unlock and upgrade exclusive skills, as well as exchange for incredibly powerful skill-specialization traits.

Skills showcase:

[Leaping Slash] Your next basic attack becomes a leaping slash that automatically targets an enemy.

[Battle Fervor] While in combat, gain battle fervor every second. Damage +5.5%, movement speed +5.5%, up to 10 stacks.

[Dark Vortex] Swing your double-headed axe to deal massive damage to enemies within 10 meters.

Specializations showcase:

[Fortified] Each time you use a skill, gain a shield equal to 10% of your maximum health.

[Double Cast] Area-of-effect skills trigger twice.

[Charged] The longer you charge a skill, the more damage it deals.

And so, a boss with utterly ridiculous mechanics appeared out of nowhere, making the whole world cry!

Newbie village players: "What the hell? They're laying siege to the newbie village already? Is this a joke?"

Main city players: "Oh no! That demonic boss is laying siege to the city again! Brothers, retreat!"

Players on the verge of a breakdown: "We can't beat it, and we can't escape. Which idiot game designer came up with this thing? I'm so damn done..."

Native NPCs: "Stop killing us, stop! We'll surrender to you, okay?"

Demon God: "Brother, I think you'd be a better fit for this position than me..."
