The Heaven's Judgment Building lord didn't waste words, gave everything that needed to be given, making Xu Lang next door drool with envy.
The Heaven's Judgment Dormitory Building was a pure white giant cube, inside were standardized unit dormitories, with almost ninety percent similarity in everyone's room styles.
At this moment, players were filing out of their dorms one after another.
The Building War countdown turned into burning silver Roman font, etched onto the visual plane, with minutes and seconds, solemn to the point of being almost sacred.
[Building War countdown: 15:59:59]
"Four buildings engaging in a Building War together? Interesting."
"I thought we'd definitely advance to a first-tier dormitory building, but now it seems there might be suspense?"
"Who's heard of a True King Duel? What's that, seems harder than a normal Promotion Match."
"Mad King Building, Amusement Park Building, Evil King Building... I think I've heard of Evil King Building, it should be a dormitory building from Sin City."
"Sin City? Trouble, won't high-level players go to support them? I heard Sin City players are strong, they've almost opened up Sin City completely."
"Doesn't matter, in the end, we'll be the ones to win."
"Heaven's Judgment Building always splits its gains fifty-fifty with us Heaven's Judgment players. No player can grow faster than us. Among Zero-Tier Dormitory Buildings, we're invincible."
"I heard that after first-tier dormitory buildings, there's a Neighborhood Committee. I'm really looking forward to it."
"Should we follow Zhu Gexiao and the others this time, joint operations?"
"Heh, forget it. Building Wars have so many benefits, I want to act alone with my Tenants."
The Heaven's Judgment Building players dressed extremely similarly, all wearing a set of gold-trimmed white robes. Of course, there were exceptions, but they were few in number.
Moreover, they spoke in an orderly manner, each person seemed to have a certain degree of autonomy and decision-making power, with confidence radiating from their very bones.
It was hard to imagine that a level nine dormitory building could already be so highly socialized.
Players from ordinary Zero-Tier Dormitory Buildings would still be at a loss at this point, unable even to distinguish between the dormitory building, Dorm Survival Game, and Blood Mist World, while these people already had a very high level of cognition and a clear worldview.
...
What is evil?
If used to describe a person, it's definitely being unconventional, having a solitary and dark personality, decisive in killing, never cowardly, never faltering, cold and paranoid.
He wouldn't be like a villain, who flees in panic upon seeing a protagonist blessed by fortune, but would trample all challengers underfoot, with a deep and terrifying mind, eyes piercing through all schemes and plots, killing gods when meeting gods, killing Buddhas when meeting Buddhas, never to be redeemed or whitewashed, never to slip up at critical moments and have his boat capsized in a ditch by the protagonist's petty cleverness.
Such a villain could never appear in a story, because he couldn't be defeated by the protagonist!
But this kind of evil seems too one-dimensional.
Coldness, ruthlessness, cruelty, all seem insignificant before the truth of evil.
True evil should be rebellion against and contempt for rules.
Without distinguishing good from evil.
Anything that goes against the interests of the victor is evil. The victor is justice, the defeated is evil.
Similarly, in the eyes of the defeated, the victor is also evil.
Justice and evil have never been separate; the two identities constantly swap.
If there exists a being called the Evil King, then whether in a book or in reality, it would strike fear into the heart of the victor.
Because they would have to face a challenge again, the challenge of a king, at any time they could be pulled down from the victor's position and fall into the evil they themselves condemned.
The Evil King Building was such a building, standing alone within the Safe Zone.
The sky here wasn't blood-red, but black. Black storm clouds, black lightning leaping across the firmament.
The Safe Zone had been expanded far outward, but aside from that domineering dormitory building, there was not a single other structure within the Safe Zone.
Suddenly, the Evil King Building trembled, its walls oozing black mucus, which then formed blasphemous runes.
These runes carried their own volume and information, as if even a mosquito seeing them could understand their meaning.
"Fellow colleagues... compatriots yearning for truth..."
"We have caught a scent... an extremely tempting aroma..."
"It's not the sour rot of hypocrites, not the tastelessness of order's dogs... it's unadorned, blazingly vibrant, primordial life force!"
"Madness, Chaos, Violence!"
"Heavens, what exquisite deliciousness!!!"
"And... and others..."
"Supreme joy!"
"Forbidden things that make my bones shudder!"
The runes grew brighter and brighter, finally exploding with a grand burst of black light. The moment this light appeared, the lightning in the sky dissipated, and the black clouds stopped moving.
Thump, thump, thump~
A pitch-black heart flew out from the Evil King Building, accompanied by the murmuring chorus of countless demons.
"From this moment on—"
"The battlefield is the altar, slaughter is the prayer, death is the sacrifice!"
"Let us unveil this feast!"
"This is the True King Duel!"
"Victory in the Promotion Match grants all players 10 revival chances!"
"Failure in the Promotion Match, the 'Heaven-Refining Evil Cauldron' will randomly refine and burn 99% of the players in the entire building!"
