Pain Immunity: Worried the Villains Aren’t Twisted Enough

Chapter 430: Double Fog, the Unknown Purpose of the Game

Watching "Sin" pin himself inside the steel thorn cage, blood continuously seeping out through the clamping boards, everyone couldn't help but take several steps back.

This kind of operation was truly frightening and offered absolutely no benefits—it was equivalent to stabbing himself before the confrontation even began.

That Miss Yu, who had initially attempted to seek Lu Ce's protection, immediately turned pale and shrank backward, hiding behind another girl.

This was truly eye-opening. It seemed she now understood why everyone had been so shocked when she mentioned seeking "Sin's" protection.

Wordcaster-Bai was seeing this kind of operation for the first time, making him quite unable to understand since this was his first game with Lu Ce.

"To be honest... what are you doing?"

He furrowed his brow, looking at Lu Ce who was pinned to the seat.

"Competing in ruthlessness? This is really unnecessary. Showing your ferocity through self-mutilation doesn't seem like the behavior of a true powerhouse."

"If I say you're brainless, you really have to prove it," Lu Ce sat in his chair, twisting his neck.

"Isn't the purpose obvious? This way, no matter what happens, I won't be thrown from my seat or flung off the ride."Wordcaster-Bai: ......

Even if this were meant to fool an idiot, he felt even an idiot wouldn't believe it.

He refused to believe that the strongest player would genuinely have no way to ensure he wouldn't be thrown from the roller coaster.

Regardless, this method was just too clumsy.

"Who cares about him? He's mentally unstable—if you understand him, doesn't that mean you're unstable too?"

Sun spoke bluntly from the side, then looked toward Lu Ce on the seat.

"However, given your current condition, shouldn't I make my move now? Seems like a pretty good opportunity."

Lu Ce's pink mask instantly broke into loud laughter, speaking without even turning his head:

"Even if I die right now, my corpse would still have some nerve reflexes, and you still wouldn't be my match."

Sun: ......

Flames began gradually igniting across Sun's body.

"Is that so?"

"Everyone is welcome to make their moves now—settle old scores. If you all kill each other off, that would actually be convenient for me," Xie Antong said indifferently.

Sun clenched his fist. He wasn't truly stupid—he knew these superficial injuries would have limited effect on "Sin." He immediately looked at Blank and said:

"Hmph, you'd like us to fight each other that much, wouldn't you?"

"Actually, while people say the rules aren't clear, they seem pretty obvious to me."

"It's basically having visitors participate in various games, like clearing stages, while you amusement park faction members act as stage guardians."

"Who wins or loses just depends on whether we can pass through these games one by one. If we all die, you win. Hmph, pretty boring stuff."

Sun spoke as if it were all very casual, seeming to look down on this game's format.

"Oh." Xie Antong nodded without any expression. "If you've figured it out, then get on the ride."

Seeing that expression, Sun immediately knew he probably hadn't gotten the reaction he wanted.

Tch, so the game rules aren't like that?

Not getting the answer he wanted, he silently boarded the ride.

"Such a hassle! Can't we just have this park's owner come out so we can kill him and be done with it!"

In his daily life, Sun had never followed game rules so obediently to clear stages, making him thoroughly displeased.

What surprised him somewhat was why "Sin" appeared to be following the rules so properly this time.

They say unusual occurrences must have hidden reasons, but in his view, "Sin" acting normal was the biggest abnormality of all.

Everyone ended their arguments and boarded the ride one by one. The two girls sat at the very back, keeping away from most people.

Sun, Black Man, and Wordcaster-Bai took the middle seats.

Notably, whether intentional or not, "Sin" sat quite close to the man with the nose ring.

Both were in the frontmost positions, and "Sin" quite coincidentally took the seat right next to Nose Ring Man!

When Lu Ce had locked himself in the iron cage earlier, his blood had splattered onto the man.

He had already been scared enough to want to move away, but felt that actively avoiding would be unnecessary and might even provoke "Sin," so he pretended not to care and stayed put.

But who could have expected that while he wanted to avoid Lu Ce, Lu Ce seemed to actively seek him out.

"Hey, move closer. I have something to tell you."

Nose Ring Man nearly trembled all over. Hearing "Sin's" voice at this moment was practically like a death summons, but he steeled himself and leaned over slightly.

"What is it?"

Swish!

Lu Ce's arm, which wasn't completely pinned down, suddenly shot out at a speed no one could possibly notice, instantly tearing off the ring from the other man's nose.

Only after he already held the golden ring in his hand did the pain reach the man's face, causing him to cry out in agony immediately.

"What are you doing?!"

"This thing was annoying me, so I removed it," Lu Ce said as if it were completely justified.

The people behind them all expressed speechlessness at "Sin's" bullying behavior, pretending they hadn't seen anything.

Nose Ring Man was furious but dared not speak up—had this lunatic's condition worsened?

At this moment, the roller coaster began moving with creaking sounds, starting its journey along the tracks.

Meanwhile, Xie Antong, who had been coldly observing from below, furrowed her brow slightly.

Although everyone was already accustomed to this guy being mentally unstable, she still felt this behavior was just too deliberate.

Something's not right...

The roller coaster began its slow ascent up the slope. The massive drop that shot straight toward the clouds soon made it impossible to clearly see the people on the ride.

Xie Antong stood in place, beginning to talk to herself.

If anyone had been near her, they would surely have been shocked by what she was muttering.

"Sun's guess... seems the most straightforward, but it feels like it shouldn't be that simple."

"What exactly are this game's rules?"

Xie Antong looked at the notebook in her hand, her brow tightly furrowed.

—She didn't know either! She had just been putting on a mysterious act earlier!

—Regarding the game rules and the victory conditions for both factions, nobody actually knew!

The fog surrounding this game was double-layered. Up to this point, not a single person actually understood.

[Visitors] didn't know why they were playing, and [Amusement Park] didn't know what they were supposed to do either.

Everyone in both factions only knew one thing: they were enemies.

Amid all this confusion, the game had already begun. Before them, the dragon-like Bone Connected to Flesh roller coaster had slowly climbed to its highest point.
