Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1137 - 1076: World Order

"Big Brother God of Slaughter, you’re finally back!" The five people stared at Huang Yi, collectively breathing a sigh of relief.

"Big Brother God of Slaughter, did you see the Queen of Agony’s true form? Did you kill her?" Young Master Luo will Lead You stepped forward eagerly and asked.

Huang Yi pursed his lips and smiled, "I saw the Queen of Agony’s true form, but I couldn’t kill her. I merely took some other measures, so the Demon Clan shouldn’t invade The Second World on a large scale for now. I hope you all keep this confidential and don’t leak our actions this time."

"That’s great!" Youth with Middle School Syndrome clapped his hands, "So many legendary figures in history haven’t seen the Queen of Agony’s elegance, but Big Brother God of Slaughter managed to, and I personally participated in this action. I really want to brag to my friends!"

"Better hold back! Big Brother God of Slaughter asked us to keep it a secret; surely he has his reasons. Let’s not leak it!" He Tu shook his head and said.

Huang Yi looked around at everyone, satisfied, "Alright! This journey has concluded perfectly, and you can teleport back. Everyone’s worked hard lately, so rest and relax for a bit! I also need to log off and rest for a while!"

After speaking, Huang Yi waved at everyone and logged off directly where he stood.

Huang Yi opened his eyes, and the scene before him had already turned into the bleak and worn cell of the Rose Prison.

He exhaled deeply, lay directly on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

During this period, he’s been worried about this action in the Blood Moon Continent, not having a proper peaceful night’s sleep, and now he can finally rest well.

...

Huang Yi slept for a long time, and when he woke up, it was already noon, with the scorching sunlight spilling through the window.

He got up to take a shower, feeling refreshed, then went to the cafeteria for lunch.

"Brother Yi, did you hear the big news last night?" Huang Yi had just found a seat and taken the first bite of food when he heard a voice from a fellow inmate beside him.

"Oh? Li Lipeng! What news?" Huang Yi turned his head and recognized this inmate.

Li Lipeng was a journalist before being imprisoned for reporting on the corruption of the World Federation in Eastern Africa and was locked up in the Rose Prison.

Li Lipeng adjusted his black-framed glasses and said, "Recently, the World Federation has suffered consecutive military defeats, unable to withstand Ni Dongde’s led military operations, and military expenditure is extremely tight. Additionally, the virtual economy of The Second World has been consistently eroding the real economy in recent years, greatly affecting the World Federation’s fiscal income, resulting in a massive fiscal deficit. Yesterday, the World Federation announced new economic policies, implementing a series of economic regulatory measures, and even proposed adding transactional tax categories in the virtual world, which directly impacts the interests of most citizens. Now, protests and demonstrations are erupting in various countries controlled by the World Federation. Independent countries like China, America, and Russia have also implemented corresponding trade restrictions against the World Federation. Even a high-level figure in Era of Corporation’s Asia-Pacific Region criticized the World Federation in the media, stating that they shouldn’t meddle in the virtual world. Currently, the World Federation is besieged on all sides, internally and externally, teetering on the edge. If this continues, they’ll eventually disband, and the world will quickly return to the previous state of independent national governance."

After hearing this news, Huang Yi showed a sincere smile: "This is the inevitable development of history. The World Federation was originally a special product of the Pacific Ocean’s nuclear leak. In those initial years, it indeed played a role, but now the impact caused by the Pacific Ocean’s nuclear leak has long been controlled, yet the World Federation still seeks to hold humanity’s supreme authority and act arbitrarily, which is unreasonable."

"What do you think the World Federation will do next?" Li Lipeng asked.

Huang Yi put down his chopsticks and said, "The World Federation will likely try every way to expand their control over the virtual world. And colossal entities like our Hero Empire are surely thorns in their side. Our Hero Empire is now a force to be reckoned with, and it’s hard for player power to overthrow us. I guess, the World Federation will definitely pin their hopes on NPC powers like The Seven Archdemons, hoping that The Seven Archdemons destroy The Second World and simultaneously eradicate our power, reshuffling the virtual world’s layout completely. To achieve this, they will surely cooperate with more experts like Miyamoto Musashi, who have joined the Demon Clan, to advance the invasion process of The Seven Archdemons in The Second World."

Speaking, Huang Yi patted Li Lipeng on the shoulder and continued, "Don’t worry, I firmly believe that we will definitely get out of prison. Next, we will continue to expand our strength in The Second World, and let the World Federation’s economic field continue to be impacted by the virtual economy. Economic foundation determines the superstructure, and without an economic foundation, the World Federation’s edifice will surely collapse."

"I wish to see the day the World Federation collapses!" Li Lipeng said hopefully.

...

After lunch, Huang Yi returned to the cell, rested for a while, and then logged back online.

He first checked the forums to see the current popular posts.

"Mystery player Heavenly Demon Little Dragon acquires Divine Artifact Magic Dragon Wings, becomes the Eighth Great Demon King, titled as Heavenly Demon!"

"The Demon Clan consecutively acquires two Divine Artifacts, adding two New Kings, worsening The Second World’s situation!"

"Heavenly Demon Little Dragon rises out of nowhere, leveraging the power of a Divine Artifact, breaks world records on layers 220, 230, and 240 of the Tower of Pantheons overnight, and slays multiple NPC champions on Central Continent, leveling up 13 times crazily!"

"Heavenly Demon Little Dragon rises to fame overnight, rumored to have accepted a spokesperson deal with a well-known international luxury brand!"

"The cosmic age begins! Ice Queen, Sword Emperor, Ganges, Abigail and many other experts set out to other worlds for exploration."

"God of Slaughter has risen to level 289, just one step away from Ascension Stage!"

"Legendary Films announced they will complete the production of 24 movies fully in the virtual world in the next three years."

"NYSE local time at 10:38 a.m. on the 21st, Hero Guild’s market capitalization surpassed $10 trillion threshold, setting a historical high!"

"Multiple analysis institutions claim that Heavenly Demon Little Dragon has locked in the Best Newcomer Award at the next annual gala in advance."

...

Looking around, the homepage was filled with all kinds of posts, with the hottest topic being Heavenly Demon Little Dragon.

Yesterday he forcefully arrived on the world stage, acquired a Divine Artifact, became the Eighth Great Demon King, and caused a global uproar overnight.

Anyone could see that this would be the biggest variable in the current player power dynamics.

Heavenly Demon Little Dragon wields a Divine Artifact, coupled with the resources of the Demon Clan, fully qualifying him to challenge top-tier players like Huang Yi and Thunder God.
