Chapter 519: Boss Direct Hire? A Corner No One Cares About
Chapter 519: Boss Direct Hire? A Corner No One Cares About
Among the five people, each had different expressions, momentarily stunned by this sudden statement.
Of course, a certain guy who only knew he urgently needed to eat showed no change in expression.
Bang!
With a loud noise from the ceiling, Xu Long lifted the tungsten gold plate that had been pressing down on him.
With a casual throw, like hurling a discus, he flung it toward Judgment!
"Why are you suddenly spouting useless nonsense!"
"Transcendence? Is that something you get to decide? Using such low-level tactics to stir internal conflict again."
His voice was exceptionally loud, and as an old player, his current behavior formed a sharp contrast with the other two.
Club Ace and Chiyo Ming both kept their distance as much as possible, hiding themselves, watching the central Judgment with full wariness.
They were somewhat like cats with their fur standing on end.But Xu Long was brimming with imposing momentum, immediately taking direct action, full of reckless bravery.
Making up for the regret of Sun not being in this game.
This wasn't to say Chiyo Ming and Club Ace were much weaker than Xu Long in strength, but rather a pure psychological gap.
Perfect Life's eyes now shone with golden light, keenly sensing the differences in temperament among the several people, feeling very strange inside.
Logically, these three should all be among the more capable old players, but why did those two seem to have a natural fear of Judgment?
As top players, how could they be so weak? How could they show fear before even fighting!
"Hey, what do you mean by internal conflict..." Chiyo Ming spoke up immediately after hearing Xu Long's words.
His eyes constantly shifting between everyone present and Judgment, no one knew what he was thinking.
"Are you people from Dragon Group so casual with your words? It's not like we were ever on the same side to begin with."
"Don't casually represent others."
Xu Long: ?
Turning to look at Chiyo Ming, he hadn't expected someone would pull the ladder out from under him at a time like this.
He seemed to have some impression of this Japanese guy...
"Alright, everyone, no need to say more."
Judgment's authoritative voice rang out, actually playing the role of peacemaker as he spoke here.
Frowning tightly, while speaking he suddenly raised the tungsten gold rod in his hand, first blocking Gluttony who was charging over again.
Truly, the only persistently relentless person at this moment.
"I presume all players who can move freely are already here."
After scanning the surroundings, Judgment spoke.
"It seems everyone's strength is still evident to all. However, only one person can achieve perfect clearance in this game right now. What should we do about this?"
Just as Perfect Life was about to speak, Judgment quickly continued, leaving no gap for anyone else to speak, saying:
"So, I've thought of a good solution for everyone, as my reward to you."
"Transcendence! Become my Divine Messenger."
Judgment personally confirmed it again, and it didn't seem fake.
Afterwards, he specifically glanced at Xu Long.
"As for what relationship this has with me?"
"Transcendence means directly shedding the weak human body, breaking free from the shackles of lifespan, and becoming a Divine Messenger."
"Who becomes my Divine Messenger is naturally up to me to decide."
After these words fell, everyone was surprised by this development, something they had never heard of before.
This was basically boss direct recruitment.
Chiyo Ming fell silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke:
"Then, what is the price?"
"Price?" Judgment glared at him sideways, "For you, this is a heaven-sent gift. There is no price."
"Becoming a Divine Messenger is just becoming a Divine Messenger, merely existing with a different identity."
"Of course, I will also give you some of my power."
"I don't want to give you too many chances, you... you're looking for death!!"
The last sentence was something he couldn't hold back anymore, angrily directed at Gluttony.
That guy whose intelligence had been reduced to zero simply couldn't listen to him, currently single-mindedly biting and tearing at Judgment.
Enough to make His mentality almost unbearable.
For Gluttony, this kind of unrestrained eating, followed by unrestrained release, was completely a process of breaking in the mask.
It was a very rare opportunity!
As for whether his body might collapse at any time or similar issues, anyway that Gate of Death was still stuck in his heart.
He'd deal with collapse if it happened...
......
No price!?
Hearing Judgment's words, the three old players were somewhat surprised.
After all, based on their impressions, at times like this shouldn't it be using transcendence as bait to make them fight each other, with only the victor able to transcend?
Why did it seem like he wanted to just give it away for free now!?
This situation didn't seem quite right.
Perfect Life felt an indescribable unease, sensing that the current situation before him had a strange and jumpy quality that was hard to articulate.
Suddenly, one person's voice broke the silence.
"What do we need to do?"
Club Ace cautiously held his twin blades as he spoke.
Chiyo Ming instantly shot a look at him, somewhat surprised. Actually, after hearing this news, she too was quite conflicted.
"Such soft bones," Xu Long mocked.
"Your bones are hard?" Club Ace didn't even turn his head, "If your bones are so hard, how are you still alive?"
"I feel like this is somewhat unreasonable," Chiyo Ming's somewhat eerie voice sounded.
"If you're already the executioner, why would you need us to become your Divine Messengers? With this level of power, wouldn't it be better to just execute us all?"
"The logic you speak of is from a mortal's perspective," Judgment said indifferently.
"But from a god's perspective, killing you or making you Divine Messengers actually makes no difference."
As he spoke, he casually flung a ball of light toward Club Ace.
"Don't resist, open your mind, accept my baptism, complete the transcendence..."
A red streak shot over, intercepting the thing in mid-air and swallowing it.
Judgment's head was practically sprouting visible veins, he was truly fed up.
Feeling somewhat mentally exhausted, not wanting to fight with that guy, he raised his hand and waved, making Club Ace's body float up.
Chiyo Ming's eyes instantly lit up, his steps hesitating, but he still didn't move for a long time, fading into the shadows.
"Weren't you all resisters before?"
Perfect Life hadn't expected that the transcendence ceremony no one had ever completed would appear in this manner, and that person didn't even hesitate or confirm.
He coldly spoke a sentence, but no one answered.
......
In another room, what seemed like an unnoticed corner.
Xie Antong's long hair flowed behind her, her helmet minimized to just a lens.
One foot stepped on a gray button, the corner of her mouth lifted as she looked at the distant screen.
"You said... all people who can move are with you?"
