"The captain of the Hundred Demons Shura?"
Outside the Atlantis Hotel, on the beach, Su Hang, holding a can of sugar-free cola, frowned as he looked at the trending gaming topics on Douyin TikTok). "Is this guy just logging in for a quick game, or does he have some other motive?"
Since I started playing Honor of Kings, no player has ever posed a fatal threat to me. Even players as strong as [ Silver Dragon ], [ Phoenix ], and [ Mountain Lord ] can definitely be defeated if I go all out.
However, there is one exception: Shura, the captain of the Hundred Demons Team, who personally created the starting season of the King of Glory!
The opponent can no longer be described as strong; they are truly on par with him. Even if he exerts all his strength, enters Flow State, and stacks all kinds of buffs, he can only barely manage a 50/50 match!
Seeing Shura reminds me of that guy from ten years ago who debated with me about whether the Imperial Emperor Armor or the Shura Armor was stronger.
Su Hang took a sip of cola, and the floodgates of memory opened.
Ten years ago, after the release of Armor Hero 2, a large number of fervent fans of the Shura Armor gathered on Baidu Tieba, established the [ Shura Tieba ], and vigorously promoted the Shura Armor while attacking the [ Imperial Emperor Tieba ].
The Shura Tieba and Imperial Emperor Tieba were locked in a heated argument. Finally, the fan groups of both sides decided to have the moderators of the two forums hold a debate on "Which ultimate armor is more powerful, Imperial Emperor or Shura?"
At that time, Su Hang, as the moderator of the Imperial Emperor Tieba, had an earth-shattering debate with the moderator of the Shura Tieba, which lasted for a full 24 hours, from 6 a. m. to 6 a. m. the next day!
Finally, due to their extreme remarks, both were banned from Baidu Tieba for 100 years, bringing this farce to an end.
"The Emperor Bar is now dominated by King of Glory Emperors."
Su Hang opened Baidu Tieba and looked at the posts full of King of Glory and Imperial Emperor. He sighed, wondering who still remembered that this was once the Tieba for Imperial Emperor Armor?
"However, they would never guess that the administrator of the Imperial Emperor Tieba, who has been banned for 90 years, is actually a die-hard fan of Imperial Emperor Armor."
Su Hang switched to the Shura Tieba, his brows furrowing slightly. The Shura Tieba, which was originally filled with discussions about the Shura Armor, now had tens of thousands of new posts about the Hundred Demons Captain Shura.
"At first glance, this group of online trolls— the Hundred Demons Team— looks like they're up to no good."
Su Hang narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, he was finally certain that Shura's return to playing games was not just a whim, but rather that he had other shady intentions.
"We'll meet force with force and water with earth. If your Hundred Demons Team continues to create chaos and fear in the King of Glory community like you did ten years ago, then I wouldn't mind paying you another visit!"
Su Hang's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
Back then, the Hundred Demons Team was like the KK Telecom Fraud Compound, luring many top players to join with high salaries, using sweet talk to get them to sign indentured servitude contracts, and then developing downlines in a pyramid scheme manner to recruit more top players.
Silver Dragon Phoenix Mountain Lord was a victim, but they were lucky to have encountered him. However, there are many unfortunate players who are bound to the Hundred Demons for life and will regret it for the rest of their lives.
"The most difficult person to deal with among the Hundred Demons is undoubtedly their captain Shura, but the person we should be most wary of is their vice-captain, Nurarihyon."
Su Hang logged into his old account [ Imperial Emperor ], opened the friends list, and scrolled for more than a minute before finally finding [ Nurarihyon ], whose contact name was listed as the vice-captain of the Hundred Demons.
"The last time it was online was nine years ago."
Su Hang opened the game homepage of Nurarihyon, where his rank had already dropped to Bronze. Although he was only at the provincial level, his opponent's skill level far surpassed that of Champion Emperor player; he was exceptionally strong.
"This guy is Shura's cunning strategist. He knows small manners but lacks righteousness, he's meticulous about details but lacks great virtue. He's polite on the surface, but his heart is full of evil schemes."
Su Hang felt a chill run down his spine. Although he had never met Nurarihyon in real life, he was sure the other man was no good. After all, all the indentures had passed through his hands, and it was unbelievable that he could do such a heinous thing.
" Exalted Emperor!"
A familiar female voice suddenly came from behind.
Su Hang put away his phone and turned to look.
"Is something the matter, Liuli?"
" Xiao Sui just brewed Lord Xu's Drink." Yugong Liuli held the thermos, her face slightly flushed. "She asked me to bring it to you; drink it while it's hot."
"Oh."
Su Hang took the thermos and nodded slightly. "Thank you."
Yugong Liuli tucked her hair behind her ear and whispered, "You're welcome."
Su Hang unscrewed the lid and slowly blew out hot air.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward.
"I really didn't expect that Xiao Sui would actually know how to brew authentic Lord Xu's Drink," Yugong Liuli said, trying to start a conversation. "I thought only my family knew how to make Lord Xu's Drink."
"I don't know if yours is authentic or not, but mine is definitely authentic," Su Hang said while blowing on the hot beverage. " Lord Xu's Drink is a drink that has been passed down through generations of our Su family, a family recipe."
"Heirloom?"
Yugong Liuli was slightly taken aback.
Su Hang glanced at him and said, "Is this also a family tradition?"
Yugong Liuli nodded like a chick pecking at rice. "Mm."
Su Hang said half-jokingly, "Maybe your family's Lord Xu's Drink) was passed down from our Su family."
After thinking carefully for a moment, Yugong Liuli said, "Very likely."
Su Hang blew on the hot air from the bottle. "Someday you should brew a pot of Lord Xu's Drink for me to try. I'll know if it's a family tradition passed down in the Su family just by tasting it."
"Oh, this."
Yugong Liuli's face flushed instantly. As the shrine maiden of the Yugong family, she could only brew the Lord Xu's Drink) for the gods. "If there's a chance later..."
Yugong Liuli glanced up, but before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly froze, because the Exalted Emperor's expression and movements at that moment resembled a person, or rather, a god.
Yousu Fox God!
Am I just imagining things?
" Liuli, who do you think is more powerful, the Imperial Emperor or the Shura?"
"You mean the Imperial Emperor from Armor Hero?" Yugong Liuli's ears suddenly turned red, her heart raced, and she whispered, "Or the senior character from Honor of Kings... no, no, the Imperial Emperor."
What about in Armor Hero?
" Imperial Emperor."
What about in Honor of Kings?
" Imperial Emperor."
Su Hang left with a satisfied expression. As expected of their Sovereign Dominion's chief vice-captain, he has such good taste! He not only thinks the Imperial Emperor from Armor Hero is amazing, but he also thinks the Imperial Emperor from Honor of Kings is amazing.
" Liuli, if you were to meet the Imperial Emperor from Armor Hero someday, what would you want to say to him?"
"Tell me, tell me..."
Yugong Liuli stammered, her face turning red to her ears and neck.
Seeing that the other person's brain was about to overload, Su Hang stopped the conversation, saying, "You have a match tomorrow, you should go home and get some rest."
"Well..."
Yugong Liuli fled the scene at top speed.
"Hurry up and finish the match so you can go home."
Su Hang was itching to try it on. The Imperial Emperor Armor suit that Huyan Lan had given him a while ago was still sitting in the dark basement. "I can't wait to try Imperial Emperor on."
"What time is it? It's time to go back..."
Su Hang stared at the new friend notification in the King of Glory chat interface, his heart suddenly trembling violently. "What is this?"
