His gaze swept across several screens, his voice pausing slightly as if waiting, waiting for everyone to realize he was speaking to them.
"Sorry about this."
"I need to repeat the threat that 'Sin' made to you earlier."
"I'm not one for beating around the bush, so I'll say it straight - I hope you'll all press the gray buttons."
"Or, I'll come press them for you!"
Perfect Life was different from the other players.
Of course, from the perspective of being an artificial human, he was naturally different from everyone, but here it referred to his gaming philosophy.
He had genuinely participated in the 2.0 game alongside Lu Ce, taken part in that operation to hunt down the Despair God's Emissary, clearing the stage by killing the divine messenger!
That experience had "opened his eyes."
He was someone who had witnessed, alongside "Sin," another way to clear the game!
In other words, like Xie Antong, from the very beginning of the game, he never considered "Sin" as his imaginary enemy.
Hearing his words, everyone fell somewhat silent.
Club Ace frowned deeply, muttering to himself:
"Why does it feel like you've teamed up with that 'Sin'?"
"Or is it just one-sided? Are you crazy? When has this game ever had this kind of alliance?"
"And you all inexplicably want to talk to that divine messenger..."
As he spoke, his eyes turned gloomy, and he clenched his fist.
He was a veteran player, different from people like Perfect Life.
He had no way out - he had to pursue the safest, most extreme form of victory, which was being the only one left alive.
But regardless... for now he could only quickly press the gray button first.
......
In another room, Xu Long in Volcano Hell didn't have such extreme considerations.
Although he was also a veteran player, he was after all from Dragon Group, and the game contained China's "Sin" and "Blank."
From the very beginning, he never thought he had to eliminate everyone else, since fellow Chinese could be considered allies.
So, watching Perfect Life and "Sin's" choices on the screen before him, he currently smiled and shook his head.
"The young people are charging ahead like this, so I won't listen to you anymore, old man."
Saying this, he turned off his live stream, no longer watching Dragon Group's prompts and commands.
"I'm going to start too!"
Saying this, he who already had the most gray button presses went all out, beginning to swim in the magma, chasing after gray buttons to press!
Grand Elder: ......
...
At this moment, only two words surfaced in the Bearded Phantom's heart.
—Damn it!
Originally there was only "Sin" as the troublemaker, but now there was another one - Perfect Life!
How could there be such irrational people, coming up and continuously pressing gray buttons without any regard, never stopping.
Completely unconcerned about potential gains, and completely ignoring his warnings and hints.
Now it was good... these two people were forcing all the other players' hands.
Looking at all the rooms before him, he felt somewhat speechless.
They were all uniformly pressing gray buttons, these people acting like they were crazy, in a game where only one person could win, actually "working together."
Why had the game become like this?
Exactly when... did things go wrong?!
....
Pressing the buttons before them, Lu Ce and Perfect Life - these two who could move freely - each transferred to other rooms.
Before Perfect Life was a person hanging upside down, with a saw between their legs.
Sawing Hell.
In Sawing Hell, Random Guy A looked despairingly at the saw that had started again, already wanting to curse in his heart.
"Damn it, didn't I just press the red button?"
Perfect Life pointed to the other side, at the execution screens that had already reached eight, saying:
"The execution rooms are increasing, you can't avoid it."
"Be rational, I can help you."
At that moment, the saw started up again, blood flying everywhere!
"Rational my ass! Can you be rational at a time like this?!"
Random Guy A in the room directly screamed, then fiercely pressed the red button in his hand.
Bang!
A golden light flashed past, directly knocking away the red button, and Perfect Life subsequently lowered his "yang" hand.
"I said, if you don't press it, I'll come press it for you."
Perfect Life's eyes showed only determination - towards the right thing, there was no mercy.
Quickly walking to Random Guy A's side, he used both hands to forcefully turn the saw, pressing it toward his thigh and crotch area.
The Yin-Yang Hands erupted with intense light, and although it was still excruciatingly painful, at least psychologically it made it somewhat more acceptable for the other.
"Gray button, press!"
......
Meanwhile, before Lu Ce was a sea of blood, and standing in the middle was a beautiful woman, Chiyo Ming.
Blood Pool Hell.
Chiyo Ming looked at the monster before her, sensing his chaotic aura, and began to find it hard to smile.
She couldn't even easily perform that seductive feeling anymore.
Tch, this really doesn't seem human at all anymore... no wonder Kaine was completely no match for him.
Chiyo Ming thought to herself, then spoke:
"How about we discuss this?"
Gluttony didn't speak. The moment he arrived at this Blood Pool Hell, his entire body suddenly began trembling uncontrollably.
Completely unable to suppress his body's instinctive reaction, instead of answering, he bent down, scooped up a handful of blood, and brought it to his lips.
The blood poured down, seemingly soothing his restlessness, but Chiyo Ming could sense that the unstable aura around him was growing increasingly intense.
"...Hey?"
Gluttony turned his gaze over, slowly crouching down like a tiger about to pounce, submerging himself in the blood pool until only his eyes were visible.
Chiyo Ming's internal alarm bells rang loudly, and she immediately searched for the red button, but a wave crashed over, washing the button away to who knows where.
The next second, the distant tiger had already pounced!
And by her hand, there was only the gray button!
...
Eighteen rooms, eighteen lights, green lights lighting up one after another.
From time to time, some less capable players would suddenly die during their risks, making people sigh, but those were ultimately the minority.
The number of green was about to surpass the red.
In the unseen corner, the Bearded Divine Messenger felt as if he had been forced to the edge of a cliff.
For so many years, this was the first time.
His gaze fixed intently on the room where that guy was about to lose his humanity, staring at what in His eyes was the only possible variable.
"Truly lives up to the reputation."
"But... you shouldn't be far from collapse either."
