The third event became successful as the viewership of the event is at an all-time high. Even ordinary news outlets are reporting on the results of the events. Pandemonium is now getting more recognition than ever before. Back then it is only gaming news channels that covered them but now it is mainstream.
Even the Hall of Fame videos are getting tons of views and even older videos have rising video counts. The videos that are rising in viewership are those that have story lines of the world of Pandemonium. The lore that Pandemonium has is giving rise to people playing the game and registering as they envisioned themselves as the protagonist of their own story.
The contestants however are speculating on the video shown yesterday when the event ended. They could more or less surmise that the dragon that they saw might be the King in the 'Advent of the King' event. That would have hold true if that dragon did not speak as if it will gift the Two Headed Dragon of the 62nd Devil God to the one it refers as its 'King'.
Just as the curiosity of the last event is skyrocketing, Atlas Inc. stated that they will give another spoiler about the last event after the fourth event. The fourth event is different than the other events as its timeline is not fixed. It could end in one day or two days depending on the results of the matches.
The Fourth Event is called Monarch and it is the real PVP event in the competition. The other matches tested the players against the environment and Ai enemies, but the fourth event is against players. The winners of the fourth event will be called Monarchs as they will be crowned as some sort of rulers amongst players.
"Welcome everyone! Today is the day that the Fourth Event will start. To keep it fair, the contestants will now draw lots on who will be their opponents. National Team Captains please line up in order of rank in the previous competition and pick your enemies!" The announcer stated as he brought a ballot to the center stage.
Each of the national team captains picked from the ballot. This is to ensure that the fight is not rigged and to keep the competition exciting. If the parties involved prepared for their opponents, then the match would be boring as it would be one sided.
The national team captains showed the sphere that they have chosen as they will pick the number that they will go up against. It did not take long for all the slots to be filled and each national team gained the opponent that they have picked.

The event rules are clear on the winner as it is a PVP match style. The two most important rules for this event are numbers three and nine as they dictate the winner of the event. If a team can win the solo and team match, then they are guaranteed to move to the next event.
The next thing that the players need to consider is their battleground as there seems to be different maps depending on the roll. The one who dictates the battleground will have the advantage as they will surely pick the map that they are more familiar with.
"Ok! I will now show the maps or the battlegrounds that are available for this event. The first one is an average battleground stadium with nothing special to it. Or is there something special there?
The next map is the Island battleground where those that have aquatic abilities could reign supreme. The third map is a mountain region that is cold and covered in snow. The fourth map is a dense jungle that is great for those who are agile and stealthy.
The fifth map is a bit special as it is the talked about floating island located a bit south of the central continent. The floating island of Avalon! If someone cannot fly, then certain death is given to those that fall down.." The announcer stated as the maps are showed in the projected screens.
