Online game: Thunder Tyrant, I have infinite critical hits!

"Gah!"

"quack!"

After the battle, several two-headed crows flew over the forest. General Bull Demon glared at them from afar, and they immediately flew away with strange cries.

"Jiang Taigong..." General Bull Demon carried the corpse of the five-colored peacock, walking along the messy mountain path he had created on his way here, turning back every few steps.

Behind him, the woman in red, Zhao Ning, followed closely. Although she was extremely beautiful, her eyes were dull, like a walking corpse.

Being followed by such a thousand-year-old zombie made General Bull Demon feel uncomfortable all over, especially since she had given him a good beating earlier, and his nose was still bleeding!

General Bull Demon sniffed the blood from his nose, looked at Jiang Yan beside him, and whispered, "Is this really alright? She... she's a thousand-year-old zombie."

Jiang Yan glanced at it and said, "In my eyes, you and she are the same."

One is a bull monster, the other a zombie monster. You two are evenly matched, so neither of you should look down on the other. Besides, in terms of appearance, the other one is miles ahead of you.

The Bull Demon General was displeased. It had cultivated for many years to reach this point, unlike the zombie behind it!

Cultivation for many years?

Do wild monsters need to train too?

Jiang Yan looked puzzled and wanted to ask, but he knew that NPCs couldn't talk about things outside the game, otherwise they would be...

and many more!

This is the Ailao Mountains in the real world, it's no longer in the game!

Jiang Yan's eyes lit up, but just in case, he asked first, "Brother Niu, now that you've come from the game into reality, are the rules of the game no longer binding you?"

General Bull Demon nodded and said in a muffled voice, "Although I don't know what the rules of the game you're talking about are, I can certainly speak freely now."

A sharp light suddenly flashed in Jiang Yan's eyes. At this moment, countless questions arose in his mind, and for a moment he did not know what to ask first.

Jiang Yan took several deep breaths to suppress the turmoil in his heart before asking, "Brother Niu, where... are you from?"

"The Bull Demon's Cave, isn't that where we first met? Didn't I already tell you?" The Bull Demon General gave me a look that said, "Do you have a bad memory?"

Jiang Yan's face twitched. "That's not what I meant," he said. "I meant, where did you live before you entered the game?"

"So, what exactly is this game you're talking about?" General Bull Demon looked at him, puzzled.

"A game is..." Jiang Yan hesitated, because he really didn't know how to explain what a game was to a cow.

After thinking it over, Jiang Yan changed his question: "Brother Niu, can you tell me about your past?"

General Bull Demon's eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited: "My past? That could take three days and three nights to tell!"

Three days and nights?

Jiang Yan's head started to ache.

But in order not to miss any important clues, he could only listen patiently.

According to General Bull Demon, he lived in the Bull Demon Cave since birth. His father was a famous bull demon known for hundreds of miles around, and he also had two adopted sons, namely his eldest brother, the Chaotic Bull Demon, and his second brother, the Bull Demon Bone General.

The three brothers cultivate together, grow together, and enjoy boundless joy in their lives.

The Bull Demon General fondly recalled that period of his life, recounting many amusing stories of how he and his two older brothers climbed trees to steal bird eggs and went down to the river to catch fish and shrimp.

However, their good fortune didn't last long. One day, their world underwent a dramatic change!

"A dramatic change? What is it!" Jiang Yan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, knowing that what was about to happen was likely the truth of the game!

"I don't know how to say it..." General Bull Demon lowered his head, as if organizing his thoughts, but he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

This made Jiang Yan very anxious. He hurriedly said, "Brother Niu, just say whatever comes to mind!"

"Well... alright." General Bull Demon nodded and said, "I don't know how the upheaval started. At first, my father told me that an evil force had invaded."

"Hell, abyss, the dead?" Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow.

General Bull Demon nodded: "That's right, it was these three evil forces. Fortunately, the Dragon Palace was powerful and suppressed the three evil forces, but not long after, our world underwent even greater changes."

"What changes?" Jiang Yan asked.

"Suddenly, a lot of people appeared, people who had never existed before." General Bull Demon said with his head down, "These people are very bloodthirsty. They kill whatever they see. They even destroyed my Bull Demon Cave. But strangely, the people of their clansmen, including me, who were killed by them, were all resurrected not long after. Then those people came back to kill again and again, muttering something about leveling up and getting equipment."

Jiang Yan's expression changed slightly.

Isn't this just a player?

and many more!

Could it be that other players entered the game before us?

Countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Yan's mind, but he did not interrupt General Bull Demon.

General Bull Demon continued, "Later, the Dragon Palace spread the word that our world had been refined by extraterrestrial demons, and the rules of heaven and earth had changed drastically."

Extraterrestrial demons, the rules of heaven and earth?

Jiang Yan was greatly shocked: Could it be that "Peak" is a real world, but was just made into a game by the so-called extraterrestrial demons?

If that's the case, will our world also be turned into a game?

Jiang Yan's expression changed repeatedly.

General Bull Demon didn't notice the change in Jiang Yan's expression and continued, "Later, the Dragon Palace suddenly fell and was taken over by a group of false dragons. Not long after, the world changed drastically again, with many mountains, rivers, lakes, and cities suddenly appearing."

"Cities?" Jiang Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Brother Niu, are those highly murderous people you mentioned who suddenly appeared living in these cities?"

General Bull Demon nodded: "How did you know?"

"I... I guessed." Jiang Yan's expression grew increasingly grim. If what General Bull Demon said was true, then the city lords of all the major cities, including Lin Wudi, and even the other NPCs, were once players just like Jiang Yan!

These players come from the same world, a world that, like Earth, was also invaded by the game, until finally, it was swallowed up by the game and became part of it!

Following this logic, will the world Jiang Yan lives in also be completely swallowed up and merged by the game someday in the future?

And will these players also become NPCs like Lin Wudi?

Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Jiang Yan asked, "And then?"

General Bull Demon bowed his head: "Then, the people in the city reached a reconciliation with us, agreeing not to invade each other, and they were even willing to help us resist the invasion of evil forces. This gave us more time to investigate the truth behind the upheaval, but all the clues seemed to point to the true dragon! But at that time, the true dragon was hard to find, and to find clues, we could only go to the [Dragon Palace] which was occupied by the false dragon. So my father united many forces to form a demon army and attacked the [Dragon Palace] which was occupied by the false dragon. Unfortunately, in the end, he failed and my father died completely! After that, I worked hard to cultivate and grow stronger, and then, like my father, I united many demons and once again stormed into the [Dragon Palace]... You know what happened after that, I was defeated and imprisoned..."
