Chapter 579: The Second Round of the Abyss Game, a Test of Humanity, a Simple Victory ()
Orange chips were formed and fell into Di Ziling's hands.
The blue torch burned more vigorously, and turned into a big smiling face, saying:
"Congratulations on your victory."
"You now have three choices."
"The first option is to give up this orange chip and exit the Abyss Game."
"The second option is to use the orange chips to revive a player and participate in the second round with her."
"The third option is to go to the second round with the orange chips."
"We will get more in the second round. If we pass the second round, we can at least keep the orange luck."
This is what resurrection means.
Di Ziling suddenly realized, and so did Chu Wujiang.
The Abyss Game deprives all participants of their luck. After much difficulty, an orange chip is finally condensed. No one will give up or revive others.
Di Ziling folded her arms on the spot and silently said in her heart:
[My Lord, what are we going to do? ]
【Do you want to resurrect people? 】
Chu Wujiang pondered and said:
[Don't be in a hurry, lest you fall into the trap of the Abyss Game. 】
【Let me tell you slowly. 】
Di Ziling felt inexplicably relieved after listening to Chu Wujiang's words, then nodded and asked:
"Lord Abyss."
"If I absorb this orange chip first, can I still withdraw?"
The blue torch was slightly stunned, then laughed:
"Of course not."
"But even if you absorb it now, you won't be able to become a peerless genius. Instead, it will be a waste of resources, which is not worth the loss."
"You'd better wait until the second round to get more orange luck before making a choice."
500 points of orange magic luck can generate 2 orange luck for Chu Wujiang, but for ordinary people, there is still a long way to go before they can be promoted to orange luck.
This is completely different from the utilization rate of Chu Wujiang using the Book of Life to condense the orange luck.
But Di Ziling did not give up, but continued to ask:
"If this princess agrees to enter the second round, what game will she play?"
The blue torch showed a big smile and said:
"No comment."
Di Ziling did not lose heart and continued to ask:
"This round of the game lasts for 12 hours. Can other people's times be synchronized?"
"If I go, do I start right away or wait on the spot?"
The preparation time for the two is different.
Blue Torch added:
"That's right. Add another half an hour until the first round is over. If you don't choose to enter within 12 hours, it means you have withdrawn."
"As for those who enter early, we will arrange a vacant room and provide the corresponding soul power supply."
It seems that the designer of this game is very cunning. It does not allow people to enter the game early and have more time to think.
It seems that the only option is to enter the game.
Just as Di Ziling was about to agree to enter, Chu Wujiang suddenly said:
【Wait, we have another option. 】
Di Ziling was shocked.
[My Lord, you don't want to revive one of them, do you?]
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
【That's right, but first ask it a question. 】
【what is the problem? 】
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
[If we revive a member, can we refine it into a bargaining chip again? ]
【what? 】
Di Ziling was shocked when she heard Chu Wujiang's speech.
At first, she thought that Guan Junhou was kind-hearted and wanted to save one more person, so he would rather give up all the luck. She didn't expect Chu Wujiang to come up with such a brilliant idea.
Di Ziling really likes it.
She made a prompt decision and expressed Chu Wujiang's opinion to Blue Torch.
ha?
This time the blue torch was almost extinguished.
Am I the devil, or are you the devil?
The spirits in the Abyss Game have seen two types of people: one is the one who is impossible to save others, and the other is the true saint who will choose to save others.
But this was the first time it had seen Di Ziling behave like this.
Blue Torch thought for a moment before revealing everything:
"If you do this, even if you re-smelt it, you will lose one-fifth of your luck, and you can only revive your spirit."
Because the loser is already dead.
Di Ziling didn't care about the waste of luck, but continued to ask:
"If you revive someone, should you take her with you to the next level?"
The blue torch nodded and said:
"Yes."
"We either succeed together or fail together."
Di Ziling understood now and agreed immediately:
"No problem. We choose to consume the chips and revive one person."
The blue torch nodded and said:
"Who do you want to resurrect?"
Di Ziling wanted to ask Chu Wujiang something, but her mouth moved on its own:
"Master Mingzhen."
"it is good!"
"You can spend the rest of your time here until the second round begins."
The blue flame burned fiercely, it took the orange chips, and gradually transformed into a human form.
Master Mingzhen, who had just died, seemed to have returned from the dead.
Di Ziling asked in surprise:
[Eh? Why do you want to revive her? ]
[Is it because the nun is the only woman there? ]
There was still some sourness in Di Ziling's tone.
Everything about Guanjun Hou is good, except that he has too many wives.
She sometimes gets unhappy.
what are you thinking about!
Chu Wujiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and simply replied:
[Of course not. Don’t say she’s not pretty. Even if she is pretty, this is not the time to think about this.]
Di Ziling looked ashamed.
Chu Wujiang coughed and explained:
[Your Highness, think about this Abyss Game, could it be possible that you are a good person? ]
Di Ziling answered decisively:
【impossible. 】
Chu Wujiang nodded and said:
【Yes. 】
[Its resurrection is more likely a trap or a test.]
[For example, a qualified ruler needs to make use of even the dead. ]
[Among the six people just now, Master Mingzhen is the one most likely to be used by us. ]
[Even if we suffer a loss, we can put the nun back into the furnace to refine chips, so we won’t lose too much.]
Just 100 points of orange magic luck.
He can afford the loss.
The Bandit King, the Thief King, and the Beggar King are all powerful figures with their own plans.
Both Dung Tyrant and Sword Lord are single-mindedly striving to climb up the ladder.
With this in mind, Chu Wujiang naturally chose Master Mingzhen.
Soon, Master Mingzhen's appearance reappeared in the square.
She looked at her hands in disbelief, pinched her cheeks, and said in confusion:
"Your Highness, isn't this poor nun dead?"
The pain and death just now were real physical sensations.
But now it feels like a painful dream.
Di Ziling smiled and said:
"Even if you die, you can be resurrected."
"Master Mingzhen is a righteous person. We must not allow evil spirits to harm us."
Master Mingzhen was a serious person. She immediately chanted a Buddhist name and said:
"Your Highness, please don't joke around."
"I have nothing to do with Your Highness. Please explain clearly how I saved your life."
No one will believe what you say.
Monks are not fools.
With Chu Wujiang's guidance from behind, Di Ziling immediately switched to using a secret technique to transmit his voice:
[To be honest, Master, we suspect that there is something fishy about this method of resurrection. Perhaps those dead chips and participants are not really dead.]
【This princess knows that the nun is kind and compassionate, so she resurrected her.】
Ever since Chu Wujiang learned about the resurrection ceremony, he suspected that these people were not completely dead. At least their souls were still alive, but were sealed and saved for use in the last stage.
Otherwise, it would go against common sense.
In the Abyss game, you first kill the person and then revive his soul. Even a fool wouldn't do this.
Master Mingzhen's eyes suddenly lit up. She immediately thought of a possibility and asked quickly:
[Your Highness, do you mean that Wen Lin still has a chance of resurrection? ]
Only then did Di Ziling understand Chu Wujiang's true plan.
Master Mingzhen wants to rescue her nephew.
And this is her weak spot.
Di Ziling immediately turned into a powerful person, cold-blooded and calculating.
Chu Wujiang doesn't need to teach the rest.
The instinct of power drove her to say:
【Perhaps.】
【But this princess cannot guarantee all this. 】
【After all, you just experienced death. 】
【So we need three conditions. 】
[First, sign the corresponding agreement and obey my orders unconditionally.]
【Second, we will study you and the secrets of the Abyss Game.】
【Third, when the time is right, you will face death.】
Master Mingzhen nodded and said:
"no problem."
At this time, she heard Chu Wujiang's voice in her ears:
"Then let's get started."
Chu Wujiang has been quietly studying the Abyss Game, trying to infiltrate his own power into it and gradually gain control of the game.
The moment his Yang Shen thought was transferred, it left a mark on the gambling king.
Now this mark disappeared the moment Master Mingzhen was resurrected.
This allowed Chu Wujiang to verify a conjecture.
The Abyss Game only deprives people of their luck at the beginning, and after the resurrection option is over, those people will die completely.
In other words, it is impossible for Master Mingzhen to rescue the people she wants.
But Chu Wujiang didn't intend to tell her.
She keeps hope so that she can work hard for herself.
Just as Chu Wujiang was formulating a plan, Master Mingzhen suddenly used a secret technique to transmit the message:
[Can Champion Hou be here? ]
Chu Wujiang was silent for a moment and said:
【The Lord is here. 】
Master Mingzhen smiled and said:
【Namo Amitabha! 】
[As long as the Marquis is here, I believe this disaster will eventually turn into good times.]
Chu Wujiang said lightly:
[Master, even if you flatter me, you can't change this outcome.]
Master Mingzhen shook her head and said:
[I am not flattering you, I am satisfied as long as I can find out the whereabouts of my enemy.]
[Please send me orders, my Lord.]
Chu Wujiang pondered for a moment and said directly:
【Then you should sign an agreement with me. 】
【See if I can save your life. 】
Master Mingzhen nodded and said:
【I thank you, Lord.】
Chu Wujiang immediately signed a soul ownership agreement with Master Mingzhen.
He soon discovered the clue.
The moment this agreement was reached, it encountered a vague barrier.
The true belonging has already been determined.
Understood.
Chu Wujiang now understood how the Abyss Game deprived them of their souls and luck.
To some extent, the souls of those who signed the agreement now have masters.
That’s why the Abyss Game can manipulate the participants at will.
Chu Wujiang pondered and said:
【Master, can you open your mind? 】
【Perhaps I can plant a seed that will help you attain salvation in the future.】
Master Mingzhen agreed without any hesitation:
【Please, my Lord, take action. 】
Chu Wujiang quickly used the power of the [Record of Correction] to carve a demon seed on her body, waiting for the moment she died again to fight for her soul.
Not only that, Chu Wujiang used the remaining time to make adequate preparations.
Until the entire square disappeared in an instant.
When Chu Wujiang opened his eyes again, they were in a place similar to a martial arts arena. Compared with the eight people last time, there seemed to be fewer people this time.
This time there were only four of us.
Chu Wujiang still included Master Mingzhen, making it a total of four people.
The two sides looked at each other.
That person was none other than the famous figure of the Left-wing Alliance - Kao.
But Hua Wang's eyes were not on Chu Wujiang, but on Master Mingzhen and the people around him.
Before Kao could recover from the shock, the previously blue torch had turned purple.
The purple flames danced and formed a huge face, shouting to everyone:
"Congratulations on reaching the second round. Now you are perhaps just one step away from victory."
"This round of the game is also very simple."
"It's called the Grudge Beast."
"The opponent who died in the last round, if he has not been resurrected, will be randomly selected by us to become your teammate, or beastmaster."
"You drive your teammates to fight for you."
"Your teammates' record is your record."
"If your teammates lose, you will die."
"If your teammates win, you can live."
"The time limit is set to three hours. If a teammate is unwilling to step forward to fight within three hours, it will be considered as admitting defeat."
"The winner takes everything from the loser, including the chips."
Purple Torch added triumphantly:
“Isn’t it very simple?”
ha?
Chu Wujiang knew that the gameplay of this Abyss Game was quite special.
But the way the host announced the game still surprised him.
In the last game, they just defeated their opponent.
In the next round, you will select comrades from the defeated opponents to fight against the enemy.
This is simply outrageous.
No wonder Kao looked shocked just now.
Kao immediately scolded:
"Amitabha!"
"This is not a game at all, but a shameless frame-up." "I just voted to kill the King of Drama."
"How can you let him fight for me?"
Kao was anxious and his eyes turned red with anxiety.
Whoever plays this game will be desperate.
Only Chu Wujiang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was right.
This Abyss game is full of traps at every step. It is not enough to win the first round. You also have to choose the right helper for the next round.
If he had not chosen to resurrect Master Mingzhen, then given the malice of the Abyss Game, he would have definitely resurrected [Sword King] to be Chu Wujiang's teammate.
If your teammates don't stab you in the back, it means they have good manners.
If I can let my teammates play in this game, I'm basically halfway to winning.
As a result, the Purple Torch saw that the Flower King was furious and couldn't help but laugh:
"This is the rule of the game. Since you have given up the right to resurrect, you must naturally accept a certain price."
"You see she chose to revive her teammates, so they can occupy the prophet."
Kao was almost furious.
I didn't expect the Abyss Game to be so cunning and it tricked me so badly.
At this time, Purple Torch added in front of everyone:
"Every resurrected person can negotiate with their teammates and obtain favorable conditions."
"Abyss Games will support you."
"Orange chips, resurrection, even secret techniques, and various promises can all be achieved."
Originally, Kao had killed the King of Drama, and the King of Drama grinned at Kao.
This made Kao tremble all over.
Lost.
The drama king's eyes were filled with resentment.
Anyone who has experienced the first round of the game can understand this hatred.
It seemed as if Chu Wujiang could win a victory for free.
At this time, the Purple Torch said meaningfully:
"Do you have any other comments?"
Di Ziling quickly raised her hand and asked:
"A grudge fight between beasts, what is the purpose of the fight?"
"Besides sending your teammates out on the field, are you going to fight?"
Purple Torch suddenly laughed and replied:
"of course not."
"This game doesn't emphasize the use of force. They can discuss with each other and even decide the content of the game."
"They are willing to fight, even to play rock-paper-scissors."
If the Abyss Game was a test of force, there wouldn't be a death vote in the first round.
Qian Huan was right, this competition would not be based on physical strength at all.
Chu Wujiang analyzed the entire game rules and tried to find corresponding loopholes.
He asked Princess Zi Ling to continue asking:
"What if we can't decide the winner within three hours?"
Purple Torch smiled and said:
"Then it will be considered as both sides failing at the same time, and everyone will die."
"Time waits for no one."
The Abyss Game really doesn't leave any obvious loopholes.
Chu Wujiang's brain began to work rapidly.
The key to this competition is whether teammates will betray you.
Don't be fooled by Master Mingzhen's obedient appearance. You never know for sure that she won't turn hostile and ruthless at the critical moment.
Seeing that Emperor Ziling was silent, Purple Torch asked habitually:
"Do you still have any questions?"
Di Ziling continued to nod and said:
"Have!"
"If a teammate loses, will the teammate die?"
Purple Torch laughed and said:
"Yes, but there is a way to survive."
"That's the other side's winning chips, which will be handed over to him."
"As long as this agreement is made, he can live and be resurrected intact."
It turns out that the plan is very deep.
Even though they are your teammates, the Abyss game sets all the conditions for them to betray you.
Even if you are a saint and revive your teammates, you cannot completely avoid betrayal.
A chain of suspicion quietly formed.
Di Ziling gritted her teeth and said:
"If we ask our teammates to sign an agreement with you to play seriously, will it be a problem if she deliberately makes mistakes during the game?"
Purple Torch smiled and said:
“Everything makes sense.”
If we talk about the first round of the game, Yuanshi Tianmo asked his successor to take control.
Then the second round of the game is about controlling people's hearts.
You can dominate with lies and deception, but when it comes to the critical moment, you still have to control people's hearts and even control your enemies.
The difficulty level skyrocketed.
Seeing that Emperor Ziling stopped asking questions, Purple Torch smiled and said:
"Then the game begins."
Di Ziling and Master Ming Zhen looked at each other in bewilderment. They had just fought a life-and-death battle, and then Chu Wujiang resurrected her. Now they were suspicious of each other again.
Master Mingzhen spoke directly:
[My Lord, Your Highness the Princess.]
[Just now, Kao proposed a condition. He used a secret technique to transmit his voice, hoping that I would lose the game on purpose.]
[For this reason, he is willing to give all the spoils to me, including everything that belongs to His Highness.]
Sure enough.
Chu Wujiang possesses the ability of [Heavenly Ears and Telepathy], which means he can eavesdrop on the other person's thoughts and secret messages.
It's just that Abyss Games seemed to have anticipated this situation a long time ago.
All inner voices, even the ability to eavesdrop, are prohibited.
Chu Wujiang was unable to confirm through his mind whether Master Mingzhen was real or fake.
But it's okay.
Chu Wujiang has too much luck, and he can also use the [Red Line of Destiny] to check the woman's luck, as well as the magic power of the devil, to detect whether the other party has betrayed him.
no problem.
Master Mingzhen was indeed speaking the truth.
Everything Chu Wujiang did in the remaining time of the last round was valuable.
At this time, the voice of the drama king came to Di Ziling's ears:
[Kao and I used to be good friends. 】
[He promised me in the first round that he would revive me, but he ended up repaying me with evil.]
[I would rather die than not see him off.]
[For this competition, we will use rock-paper-scissors to decide, and I will definitely lose. 】
The King of Drama is a world-famous actor with a nickname called [Li Ba]. He is famous in the south and is the most famous actor in the south, much more famous than Xiao Taohong, who is kept by Prince Zhen.
Many dignitaries liked to invite Lihachi to perform at banquets. His opera singing style was unparalleled in the world.
The opera world respectfully calls him the King of Opera, or "Master Li Ba".
Yes, he is a man.
It’s just that the drama king is so immersed in the role that he interprets himself as a woman.
Upon hearing this, Di Ziling asked:
【What are your conditions? 】
The King of Drama said fiercely:
[I want his flesh and blood, his soul, and I will eat him up completely to vent my hatred.]
[Since he has betrayed me, he must accept the price of death.]
[As for the chips, we can split them up and each of us gets half.]
Di Ziling took a breath of cold air after hearing this.
When it comes to revenge, this man is no less capable than a woman.
But Di Ziling was a noble and would not trust anyone easily, so she asked one more question:
[How can this princess guarantee that you are not deliberately deceiving? ]
At this time, the drama king smiled and said:
[I can sign an agreement. If I break this oath, I will die a miserable death and my soul will be turned into nothing.]
[I have died once, so why should I still be afraid of this unfaithful man? ]
There are agreements, there are promises, there is hatred.
This seems credible.
Di Ziling nodded and said:
[This princess understands. Let's discuss it first and then sign an agreement with you. ]
The King of Drama nodded and said:
【no problem. 】
[Joining forces with me will be your best choice. 】
Di Ziling cut off contact with the King of Drama, and then said to Chu Wujiang:
[My Lord, it seems that there is no problem. ]
【We got lucky in this round. 】
Chu Wujiang shook his head and said:
[No, he has a problem.]
what?
Di Ziling was surprised. What was the problem?
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
Don't you think he's a little too emotional?
[He is the king of drama, even better at acting than Her Highness the Princess.]
Di Ziling asked in confusion:
【But he is willing to sign the agreement. 】
Chu Wujiang asked back:
[If that's the case, why did he use rock-paper-scissors to make the decision? ]
[Scissors-paper-scissors can keep him undefeated for two-thirds of the time, and he has a great chance of winning.]
[He deliberately said he would use fists, and then used scissors, thus securing the victory in one fell swoop.]
Di Ziling was shocked.
She quickly asked:
[Then, then what about him agreeing to the agreement? ]
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
[I just conducted an experiment with Master Mingzhen.]
[The agreement has a sequence.]
[If the previous agreement conflicts with the later agreement, the later agreement will be invalid. ]
[Abyss Games has always provided contract guarantees, because the contract itself also has loopholes. 】
Di Ziling was now convinced.
She couldn't help but say:
[My Lord, should we use their own trick against you?]
Chu Wujiang nodded with a smile and said:
[No, we can defeat him with an upright method.]
[Tell them that we can’t agree to rock-paper-scissors, we can only use Go. ]
【Give the drama king a chance to fulfill his promise.】
[As long as he resigns, we will give him half of his chips and Kao's flesh and blood.]
……
Chu Wujiang stabilized the front line, while the King of Drama and the King of Flowers were in great pain.
The other party wants to play Go?
Kao's expression suddenly changed, and he asked in a low voice:
[Xiao Ba, have you revealed our relationship? ]
One is the flower king who runs a brothel, and the other is the drama king of the opera theater.
The relationship between the two is beyond ordinary people's imagination.
The King of Drama is willing to die for the King of Flowers, and the King of Flowers is also willing to offer chips for him.
He believed that both of them could transcend this abyss game, and after discussing the next round, they worked out a fraud plan.
The best scenario is to make people misunderstand that the two people become enemies.
No matter what situation they encounter, they can set traps and hunt down their opponents.
Unexpectedly, under such a huge temptation, Di Ziling actually resisted the temptation and even suggested changing to Go.
In Go, you cannot steal the chicken.
The King of Drama said softly:
[How could I reveal our relationship? ]
[It must be that the princess is a cautious person and noticed that the rock-paper-scissors game was inappropriate. ]
On the surface, the two of them were at loggerheads, but in fact, they had already been in collusion with each other. If they hadn't met Chu Wujiang, they could have gone a few more steps.
Kao showed a ruthless look:
[Master Mingzhen is a famous chess player in Nanzhou. We cannot play Go with her.]
[Then let's play rock-paper-scissors. I'll raise the stakes and lead Master Mingzhen to rebel.]
[Even if I bet all my chips. ]
The King of Drama nodded and said:
【it is good! 】
After a brief ideological game, both sides finally sent out their teammates to participate in the grudge fight.
All grudges and hatreds were completely resolved at this moment.
The two walked to the arena, and suddenly someone spoke:
"I surrender."
“Please keep your promise.”
"Surrender means half the loss, right?"
what?
Kao cursed loudly:
"Bitch, what are you talking about?"
"Why do you want to surrender?"
The friendship between the two seemed to be wiped out in an instant, even though the drama king still had a chance to fight back.
But he chose to kneel on the arena.
This made Kao break down on the spot.
When the drama king heard his lover's words, his heart seemed to twitch.
But there is no way.
Because Di Ziling told him their entire plan, including their contract.
[Whether it is playing Go, chess, etc., you have no chance of winning. ]
【We can do an experiment first. 】
The King of Drama plays two roles. On the one hand, he competes with Chu Wujiang and others, and on the other hand, he discusses the entire plan with the King of Flowers.
As a result, she found that she was no match at all.
【Surrender and lose half. 】
[This way you can still be together, forever and ever. ]
[If you don’t want to, just lose everything. ]
The King of Drama has been singing on the stage for decades. He has met too many people. After the encounter with Di Ziling, he realized that Master Ming Zhen could not be instigated to rebel.
In this situation, no matter what game he plays, Chu Wujiang has a 100% chance of winning.
So he chose to surrender.
Di Ziling nodded and said:
"A wise decision."
"Hand over your chips."
At this time, Kao's chips were split into two halves.
"Bitch!"
The famous flower king in the world was destroyed on the spot.
Di Ziling took the chips, and corresponding words appeared in the heavenly book.
[300 points of orange magic luck detected. ]
Then the soul of the Flower King was eaten by the Drama King in one bite.
"thank you all."
I'm afraid he doesn't want to surrender, but has long wanted to eat Kao.
Di Ziling forced a smile and said:
"You're welcome."
(End of this chapter)
Orange chips were formed and fell into Di Ziling's hands.
The blue torch burned more vigorously, and turned into a big smiling face, saying:
"Congratulations on your victory."
"You now have three choices."
"The first option is to give up this orange chip and exit the Abyss Game."
"The second option is to use the orange chips to revive a player and participate in the second round with her."
"The third option is to go to the second round with the orange chips."
"We will get more in the second round. If we pass the second round, we can at least keep the orange luck."
This is what resurrection means.
Di Ziling suddenly realized, and so did Chu Wujiang.
The Abyss Game deprives all participants of their luck. After much difficulty, an orange chip is finally condensed. No one will give up or revive others.
Di Ziling folded her arms on the spot and silently said in her heart:
[My Lord, what are we going to do? ]
【Do you want to resurrect people? 】
Chu Wujiang pondered and said:
[Don't be in a hurry, lest you fall into the trap of the Abyss Game. 】
【Let me tell you slowly. 】
Di Ziling felt inexplicably relieved after listening to Chu Wujiang's words, then nodded and asked:
"Lord Abyss."
"If I absorb this orange chip first, can I still withdraw?"
The blue torch was slightly stunned, then laughed:
"Of course not."
"But even if you absorb it now, you won't be able to become a peerless genius. Instead, it will be a waste of resources, which is not worth the loss."
"You'd better wait until the second round to get more orange luck before making a choice."
500 points of orange magic luck can generate 2 orange luck for Chu Wujiang, but for ordinary people, there is still a long way to go before they can be promoted to orange luck.
This is completely different from the utilization rate of Chu Wujiang using the Book of Life to condense the orange luck.
But Di Ziling did not give up, but continued to ask:
"If this princess agrees to enter the second round, what game will she play?"
The blue torch showed a big smile and said:
"No comment."
Di Ziling did not lose heart and continued to ask:
"This round of the game lasts for 12 hours. Can other people's times be synchronized?"
"If I go, do I start right away or wait on the spot?"
The preparation time for the two is different.
Blue Torch added:
"That's right. Add another half an hour until the first round is over. If you don't choose to enter within 12 hours, it means you have withdrawn."
"As for those who enter early, we will arrange a vacant room and provide the corresponding soul power supply."
It seems that the designer of this game is very cunning. It does not allow people to enter the game early and have more time to think.
It seems that the only option is to enter the game.
Just as Di Ziling was about to agree to enter, Chu Wujiang suddenly said:
【Wait, we have another option. 】
Di Ziling was shocked.
[My Lord, you don't want to revive one of them, do you?]
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
【That's right, but first ask it a question. 】
【what is the problem? 】
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
[If we revive a member, can we refine it into a bargaining chip again? ]
【what? 】
Di Ziling was shocked when she heard Chu Wujiang's speech.
At first, she thought that Guan Junhou was kind-hearted and wanted to save one more person, so he would rather give up all the luck. She didn't expect Chu Wujiang to come up with such a brilliant idea.
Di Ziling really likes it.
She made a prompt decision and expressed Chu Wujiang's opinion to Blue Torch.
ha?
This time the blue torch was almost extinguished.
Am I the devil, or are you the devil?
The spirits in the Abyss Game have seen two types of people: one is the one who is impossible to save others, and the other is the true saint who will choose to save others.
But this was the first time it had seen Di Ziling behave like this.
Blue Torch thought for a moment before revealing everything:
"If you do this, even if you re-smelt it, you will lose one-fifth of your luck, and you can only revive your spirit."
Because the loser is already dead.
Di Ziling didn't care about the waste of luck, but continued to ask:
"If you revive someone, should you take her with you to the next level?"
The blue torch nodded and said:
"Yes."
"We either succeed together or fail together."
Di Ziling understood now and agreed immediately:
"No problem. We choose to consume the chips and revive one person."
The blue torch nodded and said:
"Who do you want to resurrect?"
Di Ziling wanted to ask Chu Wujiang something, but her mouth moved on its own:
"Master Mingzhen."
"it is good!"
"You can spend the rest of your time here until the second round begins."
The blue flame burned fiercely, it took the orange chips, and gradually transformed into a human form.
Master Mingzhen, who had just died, seemed to have returned from the dead.
Di Ziling asked in surprise:
[Eh? Why do you want to revive her? ]
[Is it because the nun is the only woman there? ]
There was still some sourness in Di Ziling's tone.
Everything about Guanjun Hou is good, except that he has too many wives.
She sometimes gets unhappy.
what are you thinking about!
Chu Wujiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and simply replied:
[Of course not. Don’t say she’s not pretty. Even if she is pretty, this is not the time to think about this.]
Di Ziling looked ashamed.
Chu Wujiang coughed and explained:
[Your Highness, think about this Abyss Game, could it be possible that you are a good person? ]
Di Ziling answered decisively:
【impossible. 】
Chu Wujiang nodded and said:
【Yes. 】
[Its resurrection is more likely a trap or a test.]
[For example, a qualified ruler needs to make use of even the dead. ]
[Among the six people just now, Master Mingzhen is the one most likely to be used by us. ]
[Even if we suffer a loss, we can put the nun back into the furnace to refine chips, so we won’t lose too much.]
Just 100 points of orange magic luck.
He can afford the loss.
The Bandit King, the Thief King, and the Beggar King are all powerful figures with their own plans.
Both Dung Tyrant and Sword Lord are single-mindedly striving to climb up the ladder.
With this in mind, Chu Wujiang naturally chose Master Mingzhen.
Soon, Master Mingzhen's appearance reappeared in the square.
She looked at her hands in disbelief, pinched her cheeks, and said in confusion:
"Your Highness, isn't this poor nun dead?"
The pain and death just now were real physical sensations.
But now it feels like a painful dream.
Di Ziling smiled and said:
"Even if you die, you can be resurrected."
"Master Mingzhen is a righteous person. We must not allow evil spirits to harm us."
Master Mingzhen was a serious person. She immediately chanted a Buddhist name and said:
"Your Highness, please don't joke around."
"I have nothing to do with Your Highness. Please explain clearly how I saved your life."
No one will believe what you say.
Monks are not fools.
With Chu Wujiang's guidance from behind, Di Ziling immediately switched to using a secret technique to transmit his voice:
[To be honest, Master, we suspect that there is something fishy about this method of resurrection. Perhaps those dead chips and participants are not really dead.]
【This princess knows that the nun is kind and compassionate, so she resurrected her.】
Ever since Chu Wujiang learned about the resurrection ceremony, he suspected that these people were not completely dead. At least their souls were still alive, but were sealed and saved for use in the last stage.
Otherwise, it would go against common sense.
In the Abyss game, you first kill the person and then revive his soul. Even a fool wouldn't do this.
Master Mingzhen's eyes suddenly lit up. She immediately thought of a possibility and asked quickly:
[Your Highness, do you mean that Wen Lin still has a chance of resurrection? ]
Only then did Di Ziling understand Chu Wujiang's true plan.
Master Mingzhen wants to rescue her nephew.
And this is her weak spot.
Di Ziling immediately turned into a powerful person, cold-blooded and calculating.
Chu Wujiang doesn't need to teach the rest.
The instinct of power drove her to say:
【Perhaps.】
【But this princess cannot guarantee all this. 】
【After all, you just experienced death. 】
【So we need three conditions. 】
[First, sign the corresponding agreement and obey my orders unconditionally.]
【Second, we will study you and the secrets of the Abyss Game.】
【Third, when the time is right, you will face death.】
Master Mingzhen nodded and said:
"no problem."
At this time, she heard Chu Wujiang's voice in her ears:
"Then let's get started."
Chu Wujiang has been quietly studying the Abyss Game, trying to infiltrate his own power into it and gradually gain control of the game.
The moment his Yang Shen thought was transferred, it left a mark on the gambling king.
Now this mark disappeared the moment Master Mingzhen was resurrected.
This allowed Chu Wujiang to verify a conjecture.
The Abyss Game only deprives people of their luck at the beginning, and after the resurrection option is over, those people will die completely.
In other words, it is impossible for Master Mingzhen to rescue the people she wants.
But Chu Wujiang didn't intend to tell her.
She keeps hope so that she can work hard for herself.
Just as Chu Wujiang was formulating a plan, Master Mingzhen suddenly used a secret technique to transmit the message:
[Can Champion Hou be here? ]
Chu Wujiang was silent for a moment and said:
【The Lord is here. 】
Master Mingzhen smiled and said:
【Namo Amitabha! 】
[As long as the Marquis is here, I believe this disaster will eventually turn into good times.]
Chu Wujiang said lightly:
[Master, even if you flatter me, you can't change this outcome.]
Master Mingzhen shook her head and said:
[I am not flattering you, I am satisfied as long as I can find out the whereabouts of my enemy.]
[Please send me orders, my Lord.]
Chu Wujiang pondered for a moment and said directly:
【Then you should sign an agreement with me. 】
【See if I can save your life. 】
Master Mingzhen nodded and said:
【I thank you, Lord.】
Chu Wujiang immediately signed a soul ownership agreement with Master Mingzhen.
He soon discovered the clue.
The moment this agreement was reached, it encountered a vague barrier.
The true belonging has already been determined.
Understood.
Chu Wujiang now understood how the Abyss Game deprived them of their souls and luck.
To some extent, the souls of those who signed the agreement now have masters.
That’s why the Abyss Game can manipulate the participants at will.
Chu Wujiang pondered and said:
【Master, can you open your mind? 】
【Perhaps I can plant a seed that will help you attain salvation in the future.】
Master Mingzhen agreed without any hesitation:
【Please, my Lord, take action. 】
Chu Wujiang quickly used the power of the [Record of Correction] to carve a demon seed on her body, waiting for the moment she died again to fight for her soul.
Not only that, Chu Wujiang used the remaining time to make adequate preparations.
Until the entire square disappeared in an instant.
When Chu Wujiang opened his eyes again, they were in a place similar to a martial arts arena. Compared with the eight people last time, there seemed to be fewer people this time.
This time there were only four of us.
Chu Wujiang still included Master Mingzhen, making it a total of four people.
The two sides looked at each other.
That person was none other than the famous figure of the Left-wing Alliance - Kao.
But Hua Wang's eyes were not on Chu Wujiang, but on Master Mingzhen and the people around him.
Before Kao could recover from the shock, the previously blue torch had turned purple.
The purple flames danced and formed a huge face, shouting to everyone:
"Congratulations on reaching the second round. Now you are perhaps just one step away from victory."
"This round of the game is also very simple."
"It's called the Grudge Beast."
"The opponent who died in the last round, if he has not been resurrected, will be randomly selected by us to become your teammate, or beastmaster."
"You drive your teammates to fight for you."
"Your teammates' record is your record."
"If your teammates lose, you will die."
"If your teammates win, you can live."
"The time limit is set to three hours. If a teammate is unwilling to step forward to fight within three hours, it will be considered as admitting defeat."
"The winner takes everything from the loser, including the chips."
Purple Torch added triumphantly:
“Isn’t it very simple?”
ha?
Chu Wujiang knew that the gameplay of this Abyss Game was quite special.
But the way the host announced the game still surprised him.
In the last game, they just defeated their opponent.
In the next round, you will select comrades from the defeated opponents to fight against the enemy.
This is simply outrageous.
No wonder Kao looked shocked just now.
Kao immediately scolded:
"Amitabha!"
"This is not a game at all, but a shameless frame-up." "I just voted to kill the King of Drama."
"How can you let him fight for me?"
Kao was anxious and his eyes turned red with anxiety.
Whoever plays this game will be desperate.
Only Chu Wujiang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was right.
This Abyss game is full of traps at every step. It is not enough to win the first round. You also have to choose the right helper for the next round.
If he had not chosen to resurrect Master Mingzhen, then given the malice of the Abyss Game, he would have definitely resurrected [Sword King] to be Chu Wujiang's teammate.
If your teammates don't stab you in the back, it means they have good manners.
If I can let my teammates play in this game, I'm basically halfway to winning.
As a result, the Purple Torch saw that the Flower King was furious and couldn't help but laugh:
"This is the rule of the game. Since you have given up the right to resurrect, you must naturally accept a certain price."
"You see she chose to revive her teammates, so they can occupy the prophet."
Kao was almost furious.
I didn't expect the Abyss Game to be so cunning and it tricked me so badly.
At this time, Purple Torch added in front of everyone:
"Every resurrected person can negotiate with their teammates and obtain favorable conditions."
"Abyss Games will support you."
"Orange chips, resurrection, even secret techniques, and various promises can all be achieved."
Originally, Kao had killed the King of Drama, and the King of Drama grinned at Kao.
This made Kao tremble all over.
Lost.
The drama king's eyes were filled with resentment.
Anyone who has experienced the first round of the game can understand this hatred.
It seemed as if Chu Wujiang could win a victory for free.
At this time, the Purple Torch said meaningfully:
"Do you have any other comments?"
Di Ziling quickly raised her hand and asked:
"A grudge fight between beasts, what is the purpose of the fight?"
"Besides sending your teammates out on the field, are you going to fight?"
Purple Torch suddenly laughed and replied:
"of course not."
"This game doesn't emphasize the use of force. They can discuss with each other and even decide the content of the game."
"They are willing to fight, even to play rock-paper-scissors."
If the Abyss Game was a test of force, there wouldn't be a death vote in the first round.
Qian Huan was right, this competition would not be based on physical strength at all.
Chu Wujiang analyzed the entire game rules and tried to find corresponding loopholes.
He asked Princess Zi Ling to continue asking:
"What if we can't decide the winner within three hours?"
Purple Torch smiled and said:
"Then it will be considered as both sides failing at the same time, and everyone will die."
"Time waits for no one."
The Abyss Game really doesn't leave any obvious loopholes.
Chu Wujiang's brain began to work rapidly.
The key to this competition is whether teammates will betray you.
Don't be fooled by Master Mingzhen's obedient appearance. You never know for sure that she won't turn hostile and ruthless at the critical moment.
Seeing that Emperor Ziling was silent, Purple Torch asked habitually:
"Do you still have any questions?"
Di Ziling continued to nod and said:
"Have!"
"If a teammate loses, will the teammate die?"
Purple Torch laughed and said:
"Yes, but there is a way to survive."
"That's the other side's winning chips, which will be handed over to him."
"As long as this agreement is made, he can live and be resurrected intact."
It turns out that the plan is very deep.
Even though they are your teammates, the Abyss game sets all the conditions for them to betray you.
Even if you are a saint and revive your teammates, you cannot completely avoid betrayal.
A chain of suspicion quietly formed.
Di Ziling gritted her teeth and said:
"If we ask our teammates to sign an agreement with you to play seriously, will it be a problem if she deliberately makes mistakes during the game?"
Purple Torch smiled and said:
“Everything makes sense.”
If we talk about the first round of the game, Yuanshi Tianmo asked his successor to take control.
Then the second round of the game is about controlling people's hearts.
You can dominate with lies and deception, but when it comes to the critical moment, you still have to control people's hearts and even control your enemies.
The difficulty level skyrocketed.
Seeing that Emperor Ziling stopped asking questions, Purple Torch smiled and said:
"Then the game begins."
Di Ziling and Master Ming Zhen looked at each other in bewilderment. They had just fought a life-and-death battle, and then Chu Wujiang resurrected her. Now they were suspicious of each other again.
Master Mingzhen spoke directly:
[My Lord, Your Highness the Princess.]
[Just now, Kao proposed a condition. He used a secret technique to transmit his voice, hoping that I would lose the game on purpose.]
[For this reason, he is willing to give all the spoils to me, including everything that belongs to His Highness.]
Sure enough.
Chu Wujiang possesses the ability of [Heavenly Ears and Telepathy], which means he can eavesdrop on the other person's thoughts and secret messages.
It's just that Abyss Games seemed to have anticipated this situation a long time ago.
All inner voices, even the ability to eavesdrop, are prohibited.
Chu Wujiang was unable to confirm through his mind whether Master Mingzhen was real or fake.
But it's okay.
Chu Wujiang has too much luck, and he can also use the [Red Line of Destiny] to check the woman's luck, as well as the magic power of the devil, to detect whether the other party has betrayed him.
no problem.
Master Mingzhen was indeed speaking the truth.
Everything Chu Wujiang did in the remaining time of the last round was valuable.
At this time, the voice of the drama king came to Di Ziling's ears:
[Kao and I used to be good friends. 】
[He promised me in the first round that he would revive me, but he ended up repaying me with evil.]
[I would rather die than not see him off.]
[For this competition, we will use rock-paper-scissors to decide, and I will definitely lose. 】
The King of Drama is a world-famous actor with a nickname called [Li Ba]. He is famous in the south and is the most famous actor in the south, much more famous than Xiao Taohong, who is kept by Prince Zhen.
Many dignitaries liked to invite Lihachi to perform at banquets. His opera singing style was unparalleled in the world.
The opera world respectfully calls him the King of Opera, or "Master Li Ba".
Yes, he is a man.
It’s just that the drama king is so immersed in the role that he interprets himself as a woman.
Upon hearing this, Di Ziling asked:
【What are your conditions? 】
The King of Drama said fiercely:
[I want his flesh and blood, his soul, and I will eat him up completely to vent my hatred.]
[Since he has betrayed me, he must accept the price of death.]
[As for the chips, we can split them up and each of us gets half.]
Di Ziling took a breath of cold air after hearing this.
When it comes to revenge, this man is no less capable than a woman.
But Di Ziling was a noble and would not trust anyone easily, so she asked one more question:
[How can this princess guarantee that you are not deliberately deceiving? ]
At this time, the drama king smiled and said:
[I can sign an agreement. If I break this oath, I will die a miserable death and my soul will be turned into nothing.]
[I have died once, so why should I still be afraid of this unfaithful man? ]
There are agreements, there are promises, there is hatred.
This seems credible.
Di Ziling nodded and said:
[This princess understands. Let's discuss it first and then sign an agreement with you. ]
The King of Drama nodded and said:
【no problem. 】
[Joining forces with me will be your best choice. 】
Di Ziling cut off contact with the King of Drama, and then said to Chu Wujiang:
[My Lord, it seems that there is no problem. ]
【We got lucky in this round. 】
Chu Wujiang shook his head and said:
[No, he has a problem.]
what?
Di Ziling was surprised. What was the problem?
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
Don't you think he's a little too emotional?
[He is the king of drama, even better at acting than Her Highness the Princess.]
Di Ziling asked in confusion:
【But he is willing to sign the agreement. 】
Chu Wujiang asked back:
[If that's the case, why did he use rock-paper-scissors to make the decision? ]
[Scissors-paper-scissors can keep him undefeated for two-thirds of the time, and he has a great chance of winning.]
[He deliberately said he would use fists, and then used scissors, thus securing the victory in one fell swoop.]
Di Ziling was shocked.
She quickly asked:
[Then, then what about him agreeing to the agreement? ]
Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
[I just conducted an experiment with Master Mingzhen.]
[The agreement has a sequence.]
[If the previous agreement conflicts with the later agreement, the later agreement will be invalid. ]
[Abyss Games has always provided contract guarantees, because the contract itself also has loopholes. 】
Di Ziling was now convinced.
She couldn't help but say:
[My Lord, should we use their own trick against you?]
Chu Wujiang nodded with a smile and said:
[No, we can defeat him with an upright method.]
[Tell them that we can’t agree to rock-paper-scissors, we can only use Go. ]
【Give the drama king a chance to fulfill his promise.】
[As long as he resigns, we will give him half of his chips and Kao's flesh and blood.]
……
Chu Wujiang stabilized the front line, while the King of Drama and the King of Flowers were in great pain.
The other party wants to play Go?
Kao's expression suddenly changed, and he asked in a low voice:
[Xiao Ba, have you revealed our relationship? ]
One is the flower king who runs a brothel, and the other is the drama king of the opera theater.
The relationship between the two is beyond ordinary people's imagination.
The King of Drama is willing to die for the King of Flowers, and the King of Flowers is also willing to offer chips for him.
He believed that both of them could transcend this abyss game, and after discussing the next round, they worked out a fraud plan.
The best scenario is to make people misunderstand that the two people become enemies.
No matter what situation they encounter, they can set traps and hunt down their opponents.
Unexpectedly, under such a huge temptation, Di Ziling actually resisted the temptation and even suggested changing to Go.
In Go, you cannot steal the chicken.
The King of Drama said softly:
[How could I reveal our relationship? ]
[It must be that the princess is a cautious person and noticed that the rock-paper-scissors game was inappropriate. ]
On the surface, the two of them were at loggerheads, but in fact, they had already been in collusion with each other. If they hadn't met Chu Wujiang, they could have gone a few more steps.
Kao showed a ruthless look:
[Master Mingzhen is a famous chess player in Nanzhou. We cannot play Go with her.]
[Then let's play rock-paper-scissors. I'll raise the stakes and lead Master Mingzhen to rebel.]
[Even if I bet all my chips. ]
The King of Drama nodded and said:
【it is good! 】
After a brief ideological game, both sides finally sent out their teammates to participate in the grudge fight.
All grudges and hatreds were completely resolved at this moment.
The two walked to the arena, and suddenly someone spoke:
"I surrender."
“Please keep your promise.”
"Surrender means half the loss, right?"
what?
Kao cursed loudly:
"Bitch, what are you talking about?"
"Why do you want to surrender?"
The friendship between the two seemed to be wiped out in an instant, even though the drama king still had a chance to fight back.
But he chose to kneel on the arena.
This made Kao break down on the spot.
When the drama king heard his lover's words, his heart seemed to twitch.
But there is no way.
Because Di Ziling told him their entire plan, including their contract.
[Whether it is playing Go, chess, etc., you have no chance of winning. ]
【We can do an experiment first. 】
The King of Drama plays two roles. On the one hand, he competes with Chu Wujiang and others, and on the other hand, he discusses the entire plan with the King of Flowers.
As a result, she found that she was no match at all.
【Surrender and lose half. 】
[This way you can still be together, forever and ever. ]
[If you don’t want to, just lose everything. ]
The King of Drama has been singing on the stage for decades. He has met too many people. After the encounter with Di Ziling, he realized that Master Ming Zhen could not be instigated to rebel.
In this situation, no matter what game he plays, Chu Wujiang has a 100% chance of winning.
So he chose to surrender.
Di Ziling nodded and said:
"A wise decision."
"Hand over your chips."
At this time, Kao's chips were split into two halves.
"Bitch!"
The famous flower king in the world was destroyed on the spot.
Di Ziling took the chips, and corresponding words appeared in the heavenly book.
[300 points of orange magic luck detected. ]
Then the soul of the Flower King was eaten by the Drama King in one bite.
"thank you all."
I'm afraid he doesn't want to surrender, but has long wanted to eat Kao.
Di Ziling forced a smile and said:
"You're welcome."
