Chapter 521: What will happen when all the green lights are on?
The moment He realized a new player had appeared in the room, His expression showed the most significant change of this entire game.
He stared at everyone, taking in every single abnormal movement from each person.
Why was there one more?! He hadn't even noticed any players from other rooms teleporting in.
Tsk... and I just said there were fewer variables moments ago!
"Who?!"
Judgment spun around sharply, looking in one direction. If the other party was making noise now, and He still couldn't locate them, then there was no point in continuing this.
In the direction His gaze fell, space distorted violently, and a slender figure stood suspended in mid-air.
—Xie Antong.
Perfect Life had just manifested his Halberd, clashing once with Club Ace's golden blade before withdrawing, simultaneously turning his head in shock toward Xie Antong's direction.
What?Where did this person come from?
Xie Antong wasn't concealing her form now, her entire body clearly visible to the naked eye, yet under the perception of his yin-yang hands, he could barely detect her presence!
Tsk......
Moreover, this aura was vastly different from what he remembered!
What kind of monsters has this game gathered in the end......
The transformed Club Ace, who had shown no signs of weakness even when caught between two opponents earlier, slowly sheathed his blade and silently observed the suddenly appeared individual.
The other players also turned their heads simultaneously, looking at this suddenly appearing woman with surprise, seemingly puzzled about why she had appeared so abruptly.
Under everyone's gaze, Xie Antong leisurely pulled out a jade pendant and casually pressed it.
Then, using her index and middle fingers, she pinched a burning incense stick and brought it to her lips.
Hoo.
She gently blew it out.
Since she had decided to reveal herself, there was no need for all the previous concealment methods anymore.
"Who who? As a god, making such a fuss really makes you seem quite low."
"Though you probably are genuinely low anyway."
Judgment: ......
Hearing her words, Perfect Life couldn't help but feel relieved.
With just these two brief sentences, Xie Antong had basically declared her stance—she wasn't here to align with Judgment.
After all, in his memory, during the last game, she had seemed somewhat similar to the "Ascendants" too.
The specifics were debated, all just speculation, and he wasn't very clear about it.
But since she was insulting him like that, she should probably be on their side......
He tightened his grip on his Halberd; that earlier clash had taught him that Club Ace's ascension had significantly boosted his strength!
Just as he was thinking this, Xie Antong suddenly shifted her gaze toward the other side, toward that "Sin" radiating a violent aura.
Rolling her eyes, she spoke:
"Not dead yet?"
"Impressive you didn't eat yourself to death, denying us that entertaining spectacle."
Perfect Life: ......
Before Sin could respond, Perfect Life felt somewhat speechless first.
Wait, this woman seems to have quite a grudge against Sin too, so it's really hard to say which side she's on.
From the shadows on the wall, a beautiful woman's form emerged as if flowing liquid.
Chiyo Ming said with a laugh:
"Hehe, little beauty, this form is much prettier than that helmet-wearing bookworm. Why don't you use it normally?"
"I heard during the last game, people said you were the world's first Ascendant? And that you gave up at the last moment."
"But you don't seem quite the same as that guy over there holding the golden blade."
Xie Antong turned her head, looking at Chiyo Ming with a hint of amusement, sneering coldly:
"Stop with these meaningless probes, they're truly boring to listen to."
"When you heard this big-bearded guy claim to be a god earlier, you were so scared you started trembling."
"The moment you heard about ascension, your first thought was to become His dog, yet you still hesitate and worry—what a pathetic creature."
Chiyo Ming's face instantly stiffened, her previously maintained expression becoming difficult to sustain at this moment.
This was utterly disrespectful—coming right out and insulting her to her face left her at a loss for words.
The caustic Xie Antong paid no mind to the other's expression, lifting her eyes to glance at Club Ace, observing that figure clad in dark golden armor resembling an ancient warrior.
"As for ascension... hehe."
"Can just anything randomly be considered ascension?"
"Probably just some ghost-driving technique, hehe..."
The idea of ghost-driving came to Xie Antong inspired by Tongue-Ripping Hell; that Little Devil that Lu Ce devoured might have been someone driven by Judgment using some method.
Club Ace: ......
His four hands each held a blade, his expression unreadable, and he remained silent.
He stood there coldly, like a machine of war.
However, hearing Xie Antong expose this, Judgment felt somewhat surprised inside; he didn't know how she had guessed it.
Thud!
The long staff struck heavily on the ground, sending out rippling shockwaves.
Judgment spoke:
"Haven't you been talking for rather long?"
"You, too, are a sinner! I will be—"
"Oh, let's skip the formalities." Xie Antong waved her hand casually as if shooing a fly.
"Haha! Yes, no need for the official formalities!" Xu Long suddenly spoke up, laughing heartily.
"Instead, let's get back to the main point, miss. What did you mean by what you said when you first entered?"
Xu Long's intelligence suddenly rivaled Einstein's at this moment, proactively playing the straight man to bring the topic back to Xie Antong's earth-shattering statement from the beginning.
"Hehe, right, you didn't seem to answer my question earlier. What have you been so afraid of all along?"
Xie Antong looked toward Judgment.
Without waiting for the other to make excuses, she continued:
"Can't help it, it's really hard not to suspect you've done too many unnecessary things."
"Being overly cautious, yet neglecting me, indicates you're not someone obsessive-compulsive about guarding against every little detail."
"That can only prove you must fear something specific, and only regarding that fear do you dare not let your guard down."
Judgment's expression remained unchanged, but the energy around him began gradually rising.
Xie Antong smiled, extended her index finger, and pointed toward the ceiling and the lights above.
"When all the green lights turn on, does something happen then?"
