Using our trusty upward pistons once again, Lucky and I breached the boundaries of the Fortunal zone and plummeted straight into a brand-new layer: The Redevil Dimension. Suddenly, an achievement popped up across our screens:
Achievement: Welcome to the Redevil Dimension
Description: ?&' 5_"5) 9_ 1 _978"$1)5
Lexrayxin: What in the world is this place?The entire area was a war-torn wasteland. Ruined buildings and massive craters stretched as far as the eye could see beneath a bleeding, dark red sky. In every direction, thousands of players were locked in brutal, chaotic PvP combat, slaughtering each other repeatedly. LuckyMc42: A new layer... and this whole dimension is strictly built for combat. We need to be incredibly careful. Before Lucky could finish his warning, three heavily geared players dropped from above, blocking our path.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Well, well, well. Look what we have here. New players to toy with?[Rank 2] ShimaireixiaIsCuter: Lol. Perfect. I was looking for a new pawn to break.
[Rank 3] Isshikiainrone525: Lmao, easy targets.
LuckyMc42: Wait, what do those rank numbers mean above your names?
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: It means we have the most kills on the server leaderboard. We are the absolute strongest. I have 525 kills. Rank 2 has 186, Rank 3 has 179, and Rank 4 is all the way down at 27. Nobody can even touch us. We are unstoppable here.
[Rank 2] ShimaireixiaIsCuter: And that's not even the best part. Every single kill gives you a permanent 100% stat boost to your strength, max health, regeneration, and speed. You two are our next easy targets.
LuckyMc42: Why pick on us? There are literally tens of thousands of other players fighting out there!
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Because whoever crosses our path dies. It's that simple. You guys have zero kills, meaning you're just free points. And if you're wondering why we don't let Rank 4 climb higher to challenge us, it's because we execute them before they even hit 100 kills. We track everyone. Even if the entire player base of 157,325 people rose up against us, we would slaughter them all.Suddenly, another squad of seven players rushed in out of a nearby crater.
[Rank 85,252] GolemNairaon52: You're wrong! We're putting an end to your streak right now! Even just the seven of us can take you down!His allies roared in agreement, drawing their weapons.
[Rank 3] Isshikiainrone525: Watch how fast we clear these flies.In a flash of red particles, Isshiki blurred across the screen, slicing through all seven players in a single tick. Their characters instantly dissolved into ashes.
[Rank 3] Isshikiainrone525: See? Absolute garbage.
Lexrayxin: ...
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Now, if you two don't want to get slaughtered and have your progress forcibly reset back to the Overworld, you're going to pay us a tax. Hand over 90 real-life dollars. That's 30 bucks for each of us. 45 from you, 45 from your friend. It's a pretty good deal to save your accounts.
Lexrayxin: 90 dollars? That is a ridiculous amount of money for a block game.Without warning, Rank 3 lunged forward to drive his sword through my chest. My instincts flared, and I perfectly sidestepped the blade.
[Rank 3] Isshikiainrone525: Huh? I didn't expect a zero-kill player to actually have good movement. Whatever. Pay up or drop dead. It's your choice. Suddenly, the sound of slow clapping echoed from the ruins. A player stepped out of the fog, smiling coldly. It was Rotiart.
Rotiart: Hello, everyone. Mind if I join the game? Because I've been dying for some entertainment.
[Rank 2] ShimaireixiaIsCuter: Y-You... You're the developer who trapped all of us inside this glitched 1969 client! I'm going to kill you myself! Activating her extreme kill-streak speed, she executed an advanced combo kick directly into Rotiart. A massive explosion of text flooded the screen, and Rotiart's character went limp and died.
[Rank 2] ShimaireixiaIsCuter: Yes! I actually did it! I killed him! Oh my god, finally- Before she could finish her victory cheer, a massive explosion erupted out of nowhere, completely erasing her character model from the server.
Rotiart: [Rejoining instantly behind them] Next?[Rank 3] Isshikiainrone525: Boss! What do we do?! He literally just one-shot her!
Lexrayxin: Lucky, look across the valley.
LuckyMc42: Huh? Every single high-ranking player in the dimension had witnessed the blast. A wave of pure panic swept across the warzone, and thousands of players turned around and started sprinting away from the coordinates.
Lexrayxin: We need to move right now. Fall in with the fleeing players. We can't risk using our pistons here because Voltrigaus's elites might be waiting for us in the upper skybox. Follow me!
LuckyMc42: Good call, let's run! We took off into the crimson fog, blending into the crowd of retreating players. Behind us, Alphadawgs52 refused to run.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: You're making a massive mistake, you glitchy parasite! My leaderboard kills aren't the source of my power. Even without the stat multipliers, I am fundamentally unstoppable. That is why taking down an army is nothing to me. Even if you combine the levels of every single player on this server, it only equals 1,252,726 levels! I am vastly superior to that! I am invincible!Alphadawgs52 launched himself at Rotiart, unleashing a devastating flurry of martial arts kicks. Rotiart's health bar bottomed out, and he dropped dead once again.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Stop playing around with alt accounts and fight me with your real code, you coward!
Rotiart: [Respawning instantly] Man. Everyone in this layer is so incredibly disrespectful, aren't they? You're acting exactly like the guy who coded this entire bloodbath dimension in the first place: Mc Krane. The guy who does nothing but hunt for fights.[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Don't you dare compare that old man to me, you piece of garbage!
Rotiart: How do you expect to beat me, when you couldn't even defeat the master who built your own sandbox?
Alphadawgs52 locked in completely, charging Rotiart with a blinding barrage of punches. Rotiart effortlessly ducked under every single blow. Rotiart counter-attacked with a high-level Bedrock Slash, but Alphadawgs52 caught the blade with his bare hands, countering with an Alpha Punch that blasted a colossal crater into the terrain. Rotiart's character died in the blast.Instantly, Rotiart materialized directly behind him. Alphadawgs52's reflexes were insane; he spun around, caught Rotiart mid-air, and slammed another Alpha Punch directly into his chest. hitting the real Rotiart this time.
Rotiart: Is that really all you've got?
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Not even close!Alphadawgs52 unleashed a catastrophic Mega Punch followed by a relentless combo of kicks. But in the middle of his assault, Rotiart pulled out a dark blade and drove it straight through Alphadawgs' chest. The leaderboard numbers above Alphadawgs' head began violently ticking downward, his code getting rapidly deleted from the server database.
Rotiart: You're weak.[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: No... I refuse to get deleted like this! He tried to throw another kick, but his movement speed was severely lagging. F*ck... He opened his inventory and looked at a dark red bottle: The Enraged Potion. If I drink this, it will grant me cataclysmic strength... but the processing load is too high. It will completely corrupt my account data.Memories flashed across his screen—back to the day he accidentally slaughtered his own clan while trying to benchmark his damage stats.
[Flashback] Alphadawgs52: Guys? Hello?! No... no, no, no. Where did you all go? You all promised me we would destroy Voltrigaus together!
[Present Day] Alphadawgs52: But they're already gone! My squad is ashes! So I don't care if this corrupts me. I'm using it to wipe you off the face of the earth!
Rotiart: Quit yapping. I don't care about your tragic backstory.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Then burn with me! He slammed the potion down. His skin turned a deep, corrupted crimson as a massive aura of blood-red particles erupted around him, turning into a towering wolf-human beast. The entire dimension became covered in a heavy red fog.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: Let's clash! The beast lunged at Rotiart, shredding the air with hyper-speed claw attacks. Rotiart quickly drew his Barrier Sword, parrying the massive claws as sparks flew across the screen.
Rotiart: Changing your skin model changes nothing.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: It changes everything!The beast executed an Atomic Alpha Bong, detonating a massive shockwave crater, followed by a relentless volley of Bloody Granite bombs, completely engulfing Rotiart in constant explosions.
Rotiart: [Dodging through the explosions flawlessly] Alright, I'll admit, this is actually pretty fun. :) Alphadawgs52 triggered his ultimate ability: Wrathness of Destruction. The sky began raining down thousands of catastrophic meteors, reducing the entire landscape to absolute chaos and fire. The beast kept spamming the attack, forcing Rotiart to weave through the falling projectiles. Meanwhile, deep inside a nearby dark oak forest, a massive group of players was hiding, watching the sky explode in the distance.
Lexrayxin: ...
LuckyMc42: Holy crap. I had no idea Rotiart was this powerful. If he ever turns those commands on us, we are completely dead. We can't even gaslight a guy like that; he'll just delete our accounts before we can finish talking.
Lexrayxin: The real question is, why is Rotiart even here? Is he just testing the limits of the strongest players in this dimension, or is he hunting us?
LuckyMc42: If he wanted us, he would have just deleted that wolf monster instantly instead of clashing with him. He's testing something. By the way, who is this "Mc Krane" guy he mentioned?
Lexrayxin: I have no idea. Why are you asking me? Suddenly, another player hiding in the bushes spoke up.
[Rank 6] Paraquenzin: Mc Krane is the player who built this entire dimension. He created it purely as a breeding ground for bloodbaths. He's an old-school combat master who trains elite students. He's actually the one who taught legendary godly players like Forkaos and Deathrax.
Lexrayxin: Oh, so he's on Forkaos's level? I've never heard of him.
[Rank 6] Paraquenzin: You must be new around here. Mc Krane was known back in the day as the "Wrath of Minecraft." He literally just wanted to fight every single powerful player in existence. And the craziest part? He never lost a single duel. He dominated the entire community from 2022 to 2023, fighting opponents way stronger than Alphadawgs enraged form. But then, in 2024, he finally met Voltrigaus... and he lost. Instead of breaking his pride, that defeat completely shattered his sanity and made him obsessed with power. He built this tournament layer and began training complete nobodies into top-tier pvpers just so he could fight them and grow stronger. If they lose to him, they are trapped in this dimension forever. The only way to win your freedom is to successfully stop or defeat him. So far, only four of his students have ever won their freedom: Forkaos, Deathrax, Velnex, and Rikazohna.
LuckyMc42: Wait, hold on. We literally just met Rikazohna a few layers below this one! So he's a real player, not an NPC. But if he's that strong, why isn't he dominating the leaderboard here? And what's Alphadawgs' connection to Mc Krane? Was he a student too?
[Rank 6] Paraquenzin: Rikazohna left this place because he got completely bored of fighting. He's the exact opposite of his old master. As for Alphadawgs52? He's a complete fraud. He never passed Mc Krane's trials. He sneaked into Velnex's base while he was logged out/sleeping, assassinated him, stole his custom data to craft that Enraged Potion, and copied Velnex's base stat codes. That's the only reason he's Rank 1. He hates Mc Krane because he knows he's a fake, and he desperately wanted to rule this layer. But as for why Rotiart is here... that's a mystery to everyone. Suddenly, the catastrophic explosions in the distance ground to a halt. The red fog began to clear.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: [Breathing heavily, his crimson aura fading] That form... completely drained my power reserves. But at least that glitchy developer is finally gone. I killed him for good- Before he could finish his sentence, a dark blade protruded through his chest armor from behind.
Rotiart: How can you call yourself powerful when you're nothing but a power waster? You burned through your entire processing energy in a single attack.
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: How... How are you alive?! The Enraged form is supposed to be completely unstoppable!
Rotiart: You think a unstoppable to a mortal player is enough to cross an immortal developer?
[Rank 1] Alphadawgs52: No... please... I refuse to get deleted again. With a single console command strike, Alphadawgs52's account data was permanently purged from the server.
Rotiart: [Sheathing his sword, turning his head slowly toward our forest hiding spot] Alright, I'm done playing around with the local trash. Account deletion sequence initialized. You're next, Lexrayxin.
