The Champion Emperors' Billion-Yuan Contracts! Hundred Demons Shura Becomes Captain of the Imperial Crown?
Lin Ying declared passionately, "This is the most valuable long-term contract in the King of Glory circle, or even the global gaming circle, worth a total of one billion RMB, payable in installments over ten years by Imperial Crown."
The announcement of one billion RMB caused an uproar among the crowd.
It's worth noting that the most valuable contract in the current King of Glory community is the 10 million contract signed between Emperor's Imperial Crown and Wangsun, but compared to the billion-level contract of the Three Champion Emperors, it's undoubtedly insignificant.
Phoenix didn't fall into the trap, and said sarcastically, "They're binding us to Imperial Crown with a ten-year contract. If they breach the contract halfway through, we'll have to pay Imperial Crown ten times the amount in breach of contract fees—10 billion RMB!"
The Imperial Crown caused everyone to tremble.
Even the top billionaires on the Forbes list could never pull out 10 billion yuan in one go, since someone who can get 10 billion yuan in cash would have a net worth of hundreds of billions.
Like the Yugong Family, the top financial conglomerate in Kyoto that caused such a stir recently, even with 10 billion yen in cash, they still had to sell gold, stocks, and real estate to quickly raise the funds.
After all, 10 billion is equivalent to the total tax revenue paid by businesses and citizens of a third-tier prefecture-level city with a population of one million in a year!
"You can choose not to sign," Lin Ying said confidently, "But if you want to use the Imperial Crown to take revenge on the Imperial Emperor and destroy Sovereign Dominion, sorry, no discussion."
"Damn it! As long as we can avenge the Imperial Emperor and destroy Sovereign Dominion, what does it matter if we're tied to the Imperial Crown?" Mountain Lord was the first to sign the billion-dollar contract. "Sign! I'm signing a contract to sell myself into servitude."
Lin Ying was extremely excited and showered him with compliments, saying, "As expected of Boss Mountain Lord, who comes from the underworld, he's truly a generous and straightforward person."
"A man who doesn't covet money is a coward." Silver Dragon followed suit, signing a billion-dollar contract. "To avenge the Imperial Emperor and destroy Sovereign Dominion, this young master is willing to go all out."
Lin Ying was overjoyed and gave a thumbs up, saying, "As expected of the former chief vice-captain of Imperial Crown, Silver Dragon, you've made the best decision of your life."
When it was Phoenix's turn, she said coldly, "Signing the contract is fine, but Nurarihyon, you must assist us in fulfilling our agreement to avenge the Imperial Emperor and destroy Sovereign Dominion."
Seeing Phoenix waver and relent, Lin Ying suppressed his inner elation and said in one breath, "Vice Captain Phoenix, I swear to God, I will do everything in my power to help you avenge the Imperial Emperor and destroy Sovereign Dominion."
I'll trust you one last time.
With Phoenix's contract now signed, the Three Champion Emperors are now completely tied to the Imperial Crown.
"Finally, we've brought the Three Champion Emperors under our wing."
Lin Ying, with a wicked grin on his face, laughed heartily. Mission accomplished! He was only one step away from transforming the Imperial Crown into the second Hundred Demons Team.
Phoenix spoke up, "Let's discuss the selection of the Captain of the Imperial Crown. Should we choose me, Phoenix, or Silver Dragon Mountain Lord?"
"Why can't we run for office?" the Yuejing said indignantly.
The Phoenix scoffed, "Are you even qualified?"
"I..." Seeing that no core members were willing to speak up for her, Yuejing could only reluctantly shut down her microphone.
Lin Ying calmed her agitated emotions and spoke into the microphone, "Vice Captain Phoenix, I've already found a candidate for Captain of the Imperial Crown, someone who will surely satisfy everyone."
Everyone asked in unison, "Who is it?"
"Let me keep you in suspense for now; I'll announce it at tomorrow's Imperial Crown Conference," Lin Ying said, leaving the audience in suspense. "Tonight's meeting is adjourned. See you all tomorrow night!"
Exit the group call interface.
Lin Ying immediately switched to her alternate QQ account, "Hundred Demons Nurarihyon".
That's right!
His chosen candidate for the Captain of the Imperial Crown is the Hundred Demons Captain [ Shura ].
"No one is more suitable to be the Captain of the Imperial Crown than Shura."
A wicked smile crept across Lin Ying's lips. Appointing Shura as the Captain of the Imperial Crown was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but rather the result of careful consideration.
First of all, Shura was on par with Imperial Emperor in the early days, and their gaming skills were in the same tier. Despite his bad reputation, his superb gaming skills were undeniable and could convince most players.
After all, in esports, skill reigns supreme!
Secondly, Shura has always been a Nurarihyon controlled by Nurarihyon. By appointing him as the nominal Captain of the Imperial Crown, Nurarihyon can still hide behind the scenes of the Imperial Crown and secretly manipulate everything, acting as the shadow captain of the Imperial Crown!
Finally, and most importantly, once Shura becomes the Captain of the Imperial Crown, the Imperial Crown will completely transform into the second Hundred Demons Team, completing the ultimate fate of the dragon-slaying youth turning into a dragon himself!
[ Nurarihyon ]: Are you there, Captain?
About ten minutes later.
[ Shura ]: Yes, what's up?
[ Nurarihyon ]: Captain, what are you busy with? Every time I try to message you privately lately, you're not online on QQ.
[ Shura ]: I recently encountered a crisis in reality. Not only did I almost lose my life and fortune, but my beloved almost went to hell. However, thanks to the protection of the gods, I managed to turn misfortune into good fortune.
"Hmm?" Lin Ying frowned. Although she had a ten-year "friendship" with Shura, she knew very little about Shura and hadn't even figured out his identity.
Ultimately, Shura is extremely sensitive to his real identity, and he will immediately stop talking about it if the conversation shows any sign of shifting towards it.
" Shura's speech and behavior don't sound like an ordinary person. He's probably similar to Silver Dragon. In reality, he's likely from a wealthy family, and given his constant fighting and killing, his real-life profession is probably related to organized crime."
Lin Ying's eyes flashed with hatred.
He hated the rich second generation more than anything else in his life. These spoiled brats who lived a life of luxury by relying on their family businesses often uttered arrogant remarks like "Why don't they eat meat porridge?"
They have no idea how difficult life is for people at the bottom of society.
But this is the cruel world of self-interest. As the saying goes, you are what you eat. You can never become a superior person by suffering; you can only become one by taking advantage of others.
Only by becoming one of the party that exploits and oppresses the interests of the lower classes can one live a life of extravagance and debauchery.
He understood this principle when he was a child.
[ Nurarihyon ]: Captain, you agreed to let me infiltrate the Imperial Emperor's Imperial Crown to investigate his true identity, and now we have results.
[ Shura ] (slightly excited): You found out?
[ Nurarihyon ]: The Imperial Emperor's real Su Hang, who is none other than the Sovereign Dominion Exalted Emperor who went to Kyoto, Japan to rescue the Whale Overlord king Liuli some time ago!
[ Shura ] (utterly astonished): Are you sure?
[ Nurarihyon ]: Absolutely true. Has the captain been keeping up with the latest news in the King of Glory community?
[ Shura ] (incredulous): No, Sovereign Dominion Imperial Emperor is truly Exalted Emperor?
[ Nurarihyon ]: It couldn't be more true. Anyway, Captain, a couple of days ago, Imperial Emperor was expelled from the Emperor 'Imperial Crown Team by the Imperial Crown Core Committee on charges of treason.
[ Shura ] (shocked): Aren't you one of the high-ranking Imperial Crown? Why didn't you stop them from exiling His Majesty the Imperial Emperor!
[ Nurarihyon ]: I won't hide it from you anymore. I was the one who chaired the meeting to exile the Imperial Emperor.
[ Shura ] (furious): Why did you do this?
[ Nurarihyon ]: That's because I'm extremely loyal to you, Captain Shura. If I hadn't banished the Imperial Emperor from the team, how could you have become the Captain of the Imperial Crown so naturally?
[ Shura ] (cold as ice): What do you mean?
[ Nurarihyon ]: I am now the supreme ruler of the Imperial Crown. If you agree, I can issue an order and have the core members of the Imperial Crown support you as the new Captain of the Imperial Crown in no time!
Lin Ying knew very well that as early as ten years ago, Shura had been coveting the Imperial Emperor's Imperial Crown Team, otherwise he wouldn't have let Nurarihyon sign a betting agreement with the Imperial Emperor with the stakes being their respective teams.
With Imperial Crown Commercial now valued at over 100 billion, it's impossible for Shura not to be tempted. Even though he knows Captain of the Imperial Crown is all talk and no action, he can't resist.
[ Shura ] (Forced Calm): Which core member of Imperial Crown are you?
[ Nurarihyon ]: Vice Captain of the Imperial Crown, Leader of the Wu Horse Alliance, Head of the Personnel Department, Legal Department, and Trial Department, Wu Horse Jueying.
[ Shura ]: Let me ask you this: during the council to exile the Imperial Crown, when you learned that His Majesty the Imperial Emperor was none other than Exalted Emperor Sovereign Dominion Chong, did the Yuejing oppose the vote to exile the Imperial Emperor?
" Yuejing?" Lin Ying was stunned. He didn't understand why Shura suddenly mentioned Yuejing. Could it be that Shura was interested in this little boy and girl?
[Nurarihyon]: No.
[ Shura ] (cursing): This ungrateful bastard.
[ Nurarihyon ]: Captain, don't let your emotions control you anymore. The Captain of the Imperial Crown position is within your grasp. I can give you some time to process and consider it. Give me your answer tomorrow night.
[ Shura ]: I don't need time to consider!
"This means reason has prevailed over emotion, and you agree?"
Lin Ying was overjoyed.
But when he saw Shura's reply, he was instantly stunned.
