Chapter 763: Neither Side’s Teammates Are Exactly Reliable
Chapter 763: Neither Side’s Teammates Are Exactly Reliable
Looking at Xie Antong, whose entire body instantly weakened, Knowledge spoke with some mockery in his voice.
But before he could finish speaking, the frenzied divine power fluctuations from the distant horizon had already swept across the entire scene. Despair was beginning to grow impatient.
His Despair Secret Sea was not just a game world; it was almost his most precious possession, something used to absorb and store energy, essentially equivalent to his divine artifact.
But now, a single "water element" had already caused large-scale dissipation of the black water energy in his sea!
"Please wait a moment! It will be over soon!"
The Arbitrator's body erupted with brilliant light, his immense power slowly pressing down the black smoke that permeated the entire world, forcing it back into the Despair Secret Sea.
This only slightly calmed the unstable aura emanating from Despair.
But at this moment, Knowledge spoke up:
"If you think you can't handle it, then get lost quickly. My game never welcomed you in the first place."
Coupled with the exceptionally caustic expression on his androgynous face, the tension now was even greater than during his previous confrontation with Despair.Xie Antong slumped on the ground, panting in the hot, dry air. She was already contemplating her next move.
It seemed the power of "abstraction" was indeed formidable.
She glanced at Lu Ce beside her and, finding that he hadn't suffered any major damage from her use of the term "water element," breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he was still fine, it wasn't a case of losing eight hundred troops to kill a thousand enemies. She understood clearly that this was Lu Ce's game; no matter how nonsensical he acted, he couldn't truly be eliminated.
And just now, besides wanting to test the power of "abstraction," her main goal had been to direct the spearhead at Despair.
When her own strength was insufficient, she still needed to borrow power. The conflicts among the gods could be fully exploited.
Moreover, Lu Ce had been watching that side since the very beginning of the game. Perhaps Despair over there was also one of the keys to breaking the deadlock?
At this moment, she was immersed in the world of the game. Knowledge and Despair were still pressing against each other, while only two outsiders remained, sitting on the beach playing.
Due to the missing half of the sea, the Despair Secret Sea had already surged over. The turbulent, viscous black water crashed against the shore, churning onto the sand.
That little girl really came up with an interesting word, but overall, these guys are so boring.
Pleasure sat on the beach hugging his knees, watching Lu Ce beside him with amusement.
By the way, do you really not care about winning or losing? Or do you have some hidden ace? If you lose this time, you'll die. You're not worried at all?
Lu Ce replied:
"Hah, what you're saying is really boring. Isn't it about enjoying the game? Why care so much about winning or losing?"
Hahahaha! Good point, let's not think about those things!
Hearing his words, Pleasure burst into loud laughter, waving a hand dismissively, feeling more and more that this guy suited his tastes.
Initially, he had only wondered if Agony would appear if Lu Ce really died. But now, that seemed like unnecessary overthinking. It was better to just have fun with him, which could also increase his own Pleasure power.
Alright, let's not talk about that. Seems like it's my turn, right?
You look thirsty. Want to eat something?
As he spoke, he also extended a finger.
Vegetarian tripe.
As the words fell, a snack rain instantly poured from the sky. Individually packaged little snacks blanketed the beach.
"You even know about this stuff?"
Looking at these little snacks from within China scattered on the ground, Lu Ce was genuinely surprised.
His body hadn't been affected too much by the term "water element," after all, he was someone who, as the Chosen of Agony, had unlocked the second level of the Gene Lock.
Picking one up and tearing it open, he found it really was vegetarian tripe. He immediately smiled and said:
"How can we only eat vegetarian stuff?"
Tripe-wrapped meat.
After raising his finger and speaking, rain fell from the sky once more. Little meatballs, resembling small fortune bags, descended from above, plopping onto the sand.
Unlike Xie Antong's careful deliberation, these two played the game with a focus on spontaneity, speaking without thinking, so the game progressed quickly on their end.
Even though it was a game for four people, the atmosphere was strangely divided.
On the other side, Knowledge frowned, casting a look of disgust toward Pleasure's direction.
His conflict with Despair was already annoying him, and now this Pleasure kept causing trouble.
Although it had no impact on the game's final outcome, it was extremely irritating. Why, since this game started, were there constantly so many people distracting him?
And... wasn't his opponent supposed to be that "Sin"? That was the person he specifically picked! The one he placed the biggest bet on!
Why did it feel like someone else had taken over now! Why was this woman constantly opposing him? What was her name again...
Watching Pleasure and that "Sin" over there chatting happily, using the power from within his game like a self-service snack machine, his face grew even more livid.
Turning back, he said to Xie Antong:
It seems your teammate is quite unreliable.
"Yours is too."
He doesn't count as my teammate!
After thinking for a moment, Knowledge's caustic face gradually revealed a somewhat eerie smile.
I know what you're thinking right now. After realizing your word chain has no chance of winning, you've started pondering the nature of the game, thinking of using my own game against me?
Hah, what a suicidal idea. In this regard, you and that teammate of yours are equally foolish and annoying.
I think I should speed things up a bit, so you can quickly realize your insignificance before Knowledge. I'm willing to give you a chance.
Xie Antong: ?
She didn't quite understand what this guy opposite her was constantly babbling about.
But immediately after, she saw him slowly raise a finger and utter four words from his mouth, causing Xie Antong's pupils to instantly contract.
Carnal pleasure.
He maintained his pride, never using those cosmic-level words from beginning to end.
But this term was far too targeted!
As the words fell, Xie Antong, whose face had been pale from extreme dehydration and dryness, gradually felt a flush of red rise to her cheeks. Her body also grew inexplicably feverish, as if she had taken some strange drug.
But for now, she couldn't dwell on that. She just looked up in surprise, somewhat puzzled, at Knowledge.
He did it on purpose!
He had found a word ending with "pleasure"!
The chance is yours now.
