Pain Immunity: Worried the Villains Aren’t Twisted Enough

Chapter 735: Greed Begins to Escalate — Hooked!

Hahahaha!

In the blank void space, Pleasure instantly erupted into a burst of piercing laughter.

Well, well, well, a one hundred percent win rate like this, is it?

Not only did you hide this kind of item, but even the way you spoke before was actually part of the setup!?

Well, well, well!

For some reason, the more He looked at this guy, the more He started to like him.

Ah, what a pity. If only He could have made this guy His Divine Messenger back then, He probably could have collected quite a bit of power from him.

Picked by Agony, tsk, how does that guy always manage to pick the ones so suited for him?

He must be doing it on purpose!

Perhaps it's because Pleasure's emotions are also ever-changing. One moment He was laughing like He wanted to devour someone, and the next, thinking about these things, His expression instantly fell.Extremely displeased, He glanced at Xie Antong in front of Him.

Why is it that all I get are these kinds?

Hmm...

Although this girl sometimes shows a high degree of interestingness, He knew that most of the time, this person was that kind of "bitter and serious" straight-laced type.

Tsk, why didn't Agony go after her?

But after thinking about it a little more, He felt it wasn't bad either. He had a premonition that by keeping this girl, He would definitely have some very good fun in the future.

Hehe...

Thinking of this, a smile began to appear on His face again.

Beside Him, Xie Antong, using the All-Seeing Eye, watched the entire change of expression on Pleasure's face.

She felt her sweat was about to break out!

This face-changing act is way too fast, like a circus trick. Is this Pleasure some kind of lunatic!?

Why didn't this kind of lunatic actively go find Lu Ce? They probably could share quite a bit of common language...

Little girl~.

Pleasure's figure instantly turned into a gust of wind, pressing close to Xie Antong once more.

That move of his was indeed quite impressive. If it were me, I might find it fun and really count it as his win.

But I told you, this "Knowledge" is a very boring guy.

I'm afraid if it's Him, this matter isn't over.

Xie Antong: ...

She didn't speak.

Not over?

...

Kid.

Knowledge took a sudden step forward, speaking with overflowing killing intent.

This is not knowledge, not strategy. It's just a bit of cleverness from wordplay, a part of sophistry.

"Of course I f*cking know this isn't knowledge," Lu Ce's mask once again displayed that expression of looking at an idiot.

"You are the God of Knowledge. Me, competing with you in knowledge? Is my brain sick, or is yours sick?"

Knowledge: ...

To be honest, He found this statement somewhat reasonable.

But in the end, He still shook His head and continued speaking:

I said, I need to see if you are qualified. I don't think this behavior of yours qualifies you for me to take action.

"Has sh*t gotten into your brain?" Lu Ce opened his mouth with a curse. "Who cares about what you think?"

"It was already said before, our game has already started. This round is already counted as my win. Don't you start throwing a tantrum, okay."

"If you're not convinced, we'll continue with extra rounds."

For some reason, Knowledge was starting to become somewhat immune to this guy's foul mouth. Seeing the other party agree to continue the assessment, He didn't say anything more.

Then we...

"Wait, you're just going to start like this?" Lu Ce's shocked eyes widened. "You're really playing dirty."

"How does my win from just now count?"

That... was just part of our duel wager.

"Don't give me that useless talk. I've discovered you're not a decent being, more like a scoundrel."

Lu Ce waved his hand grandly. At this moment, his demeanor was as if he had activated the Blasphemer's Medal.

"My reward for winning just now?"

"If there isn't one for now, then add it to the final pot."

"I came here betting my life. Aren't you also betting a part of your power? I demand this part be larger."

Knowledge paused slightly, speaking in a bland, indifferent tone:

You speak of that. You should know, the amount of wager we ultimately put up determines how much corresponding advantage we gain, or how much more power we can use.

If you're just deliberately trying to anger me to get this piece of knowledge, I can tell you directly.

To be honest, the main reason He actively came here to duel "Sin" was also because He was very suitable. He was the one putting up the smallest wager.

Because He was Knowledge, He fundamentally didn't need to use much power to deal with "Sin."

Because "knowledge" was inherently what He knew. It couldn't be sealed away to make Him forget. As long as the game was designed well, this was the most standard asymmetric warfare.

Ultimately, He wouldn't need to place much "wager" with The Game.

Who knew this guy would have so many troublesome issues...

"I don't give a f*ck about all that! A cheating bastard like you has zero credit with me!"

"Either increase the final pot, or if you can't play properly, treat it as if we've already gambled just now. Settle it, and we'll say goodbye directly."

Of course, this kind of thing wasn't something Lu Ce could just declare settled by himself. But being spoken to so recklessly by this guy, Knowledge was also displeased.

After a cold snort, He casually waved His hand, directly increasing the final wager a bit.

You'd better watch your tone. He even added a threat.

And seeing that He had increased the wager, Lu Ce really stopped cursing.

He sat down on the ground in a very un-aesthetic manner, hehe laughing, the smile on his face always carrying that annoying, crafty feeling.

And at this moment, on his seven-colored mask, the color that was most intense was blue! It had even become the dominant background color to some degree!

At this moment, only one joyful thought occupied his mind—He took the bait!

Blue... that was the color representing Greed.

Greed had already started raising the stakes!

He didn't care about power comparisons, nor whether the other party was a god. He only knew one thing right now.

—The other party was a big moneybags!

He had bet his own life, and the other party only brought out these measly scraps? Not good enough~.

Fine, since you seek death, I shall grant your wish.

Then...

"Wait a second." Lu Ce once again raised his hand to interrupt, greatly annoying Knowledge, who thought, what the hell is wrong with you now!?

"I already let you set the question before. Now it's tit for tat."

"You're always saying I deliberately exploit loopholes in your words, playing word games, right? Then I'll give you a chance too."

"How about I set up a little game for us to play?"
