Chapter 154: Difficult-to-Foresee Spectacle Perfect Completion!
The entire Ocean Casino started shaking violently the moment Lu Ce asked that question, as if the wind and waves on the sea suddenly grew monstrously fierce, about to swallow and crush the ship whole.
That kind of massive turbulence would’ve had a normal person flying all over the cabin by now.
But at this moment, neither Lu Ce nor the Slime—now in the form of a beautiful female doctor—moved at all, like they were nailed to the ground.
Lu Ce’s blood was flying through the air. Already on the verge of death, his vision was blurred—he couldn’t make out the female doctor’s expression.
But he didn’t believe this tremor was just a coincidence, just a storm.
Suddenly, before the Slime could speak, Lu Ce shouted again:
“Hey! Tell me! Answer me!”
“It’s fine, no one else understands what I’m saying, only you do! Those outside spectators don’t get it, but you can let them hear it!”
“I don’t care, what are you afraid of? Don’t you want me dead? Then come kill me!”
As his voice grew hoarse with shouting, the hourglass on the table was nearly empty. The fine white sand trickled down bit by bit, but Lu Ce didn’t care at all.At this point, all his strength and life force were likely concentrated in his throat, just to support him in saying these words.
Outside the game, Jiu Tian and Xie Antong had both sat upright, watching the in-game footage in awe, listening to the words coming from “Sin’s” mouth.
They didn’t understand it, but they could see that on the Slime’s green, pretty face, a light veil had formed.
It masked all his expressions, muscular details, and even his voice.
......
Bang!
A crisp sound rang out. The Slime glanced longingly at the hourglass on the table, then its entire body shattered and twisted.
The final drop of blood on its body also burst apart.
Ka!
It was like something had jammed—
the white sand on the table, which had been falling continuously, suddenly stopped.
It was like time itself had halted.
Above their heads, a swirling, twisting white light tunnel appeared and began sucking in everything: the shattered Ocean Casino, the broken Slime, all pulled in together.
No one and nothing could resist that force—only Lu Ce remained still in place, fixed to his chair, unmoving.
Lu Ce stared into that blinding white light, at the fragments within the white hole. It was as if within those shards of the Slime, a malicious gaze was staring right back at him.
“You’re watching, aren’t you? You don’t have the right to speak, do you!”
“Our paths will cross again, Guide... hahaha! That mission you didn’t finish last time—no way you’ll run from it next time!”
“Pain and pleasure... I’ll see you again, and I’ll get something from you—something I don’t even know yet, something I want!”
Lu Ce, in a near-death state, shouting “you won’t escape” at the other side—
it was almost laughably overconfident.
Chosen of Agony......
Chosen’s Paradise......
In his chaotic mind, messy thoughts kept echoing. Lu Ce slowly closed his eyes, and on the Purple Mask, a smiling face hung there.
Anyway, he had won.
Then, the entire ship vanished, and the white hole disappeared as well.
Just as Lu Ce was starting to wonder why the Game Settlement hadn’t started yet, he looked up—
under the blood-red full moon, he saw a spectacle beyond imagination!
Beneath him was the endless Black Sea. Though it was water, it felt like the heaviest substance in the world, surging as if it could engulf everything.
And looking up—
a giant skeleton of indescribable scale, so massive it seemed to stand outside the planet itself, towering into the sky!
From below, it looked like the skeleton was holding up the entire sky. The red moon above? Just one eye inside its eye socket!
Looking further to both sides, he could see mountain-like finger bones, as if they were holding something aloft.
No ship could sail on the Black Sea.
Previously, it was this giant skeleton that had been lifting the ship and walking it forward!
But... was the ship really that big before?
Lu Ce felt like something was off with his sense of scale. His mind was in total disarray, disjointed and incoherent—
it was like his psyche had been polluted and suppressed from beginning to end, making it nearly impossible to think.
What he didn’t know at the time—
was that this was already a protected state, thanks to the Sin Mask.
The pressure from that terrifying skeleton was beyond imagination. He felt like his life was no longer under his own control.
Bang!
Suddenly, he felt like his body had exploded—dead under that terrifying gaze and pressure—
but in the next second, he realized it was an illusion.
Because a crisp voice rang beside his ear.
【Game Over. Due to special circumstances, proceeding directly to Settlement screen.】
【Perfect Completion! Achievement unlocked. Due to unique conditions, automatic body repair in progress.】
Lu Ce managed to twist his neck slightly and looked down at his body.
All his parts were being automatically repaired and realigned.
A warm sensation wrapped around him. He began to wonder if he really had come close to dying this time—
and that’s why the system went straight into recovery after a Perfect Completion.
Lying back for repairs, Lu Ce started reflecting.
“That kind of power...”
“I can reach it too, right?”
Honestly, this round of the game had great meaning to him—
like it had opened the door to a brand-new world.
“What about the reward? Don’t tell me there’s no reward after a Perfect Completion.”
Lu Ce frowned slightly and muttered.
As if the game could hear him, the Game Announcement followed right after.

After this final message appeared, the game screen seemed to freeze, spinning on a loading loop for a full minute!
That amount of time left Lu Ce in a daze.
He thought to himself: What, even a supernatural game has internet lag now?
Or... was there something else going on here...
Finally, the final result finished loading.
【......Extra reward: Token of Pleasure *1.】
“Huh?”
