Suppose, and I an suppose, he played this ga just to lose all his stars.
Then is there sothing wrong with my current situation?
Xie Antong was a bit petrified as she thought—after “Sin”’s terrifying 725-star count instantly dropped to zero, her 15 stars would now put her in first place again.
But she didn’t feel the least bit of relief or joy—only an indescribable sense of dread, like she’d overlooked sothing important again.
If you interpreted this normally, the only way to explain “Sin”’s actions was that he’d lost his mind—or gone completely insane.
But history had already proven: it’s the people who think that way who are actually crazy...
【Alright! Ga ti’s up! All gas end imdiately! Any ongoing bets stop right now!】
As the little ball finally ca to rest in a groove, the three-hour ga ti happened to end right then.
The Sli controlled the tir to hit zero, then loudly announced it, doing his part as the Ga Host.
Afterward, his chubby green body duang duanged a couple tis, then turned to “Sin” and said,
【What a pity. Our player “Sin” wasn’t chosen by Lady Luck at the last mont.】
【But although he lost 725 stars, he gained joy! He’s undoubtedly the best player in the world!】
【So far, even though his stars are gone, it’s clear he was the first here to chase thrills and fun.】
【Let’s all give him a round of applause.】
With that, it started clapping and cheering, as if praising “Sin” for his performance.
But at this mont, many of the audience misinterpreted what it said—as mockery.
【: Is this what they call the true master of sarcasm?】
【: That sarcasm is on another level, this Sli’s got a way with words.】
【: Ha! Totally crashed and burned. Still wanted to play with 725 stars? Beca the strongest player and let it get to his head. Regret it now, huh!】
The only ones clapping with the Sli were the Skeletal Fakes. The other players remained silent.
Of course, one more person clapped—Lu Ce himself.
“Hehe, what a sha. How did I not pull it off again?”
“Such a pity, points down to zero.”
Lu Ce clapped while speaking, but though his words sounded regretful, his face didn’t show it at all. The smile beneath the Purple Mask only grew wider.
“What, no one’s cheering? Shouldn’t we be a little happy?”
Lu Ce glanced around the room, smiling as he spoke.
“I lost, and no one’s gloating? What’s wrong with all of you?”
As he spoke, he even seed a little annoyed. The brows on his Purple Mask furrowed as he scanned the crowd, even locking onto Li Wei at one point.
It was like he was waiting for him to kick him while he was down.
Li Wei: ......
Finally, after a few rounds of back-and-forth from the Sli and Lu Ce, the numb crowd slowly erged from the abyss of the gamble.
And in that instant, everyone’s emotions exploded like a tibomb.
So finally realized “Sin” had failed at the last step, and pumped their fists like they’d won a war.
Others were filled with deep regret—for losing everything over those three hours.
So even collapsed to the ground in tears—no one knew exactly why they cried.
Only a handful quietly let out a sigh of relief.
They hadn’t gotten involved in any of “Sin”’s gas, nor had they been roped into anything by people like Xie Antong. They’d played cautiously—so didn’t even play at all!
Now, their star count still hovered around three.
Compared to most people who’d lost everything, their situation was actually pretty good.
【Alright, please control your emotions. We’re moving on to the next segnt.】
Seeing the crowd more or less settled, the Sli didn’t waste ti and spoke again.
After all, if he dragged it out, he was afraid “Sin” would start roasting him again.
【Originally, this ga was supposed to be a welfare round—sothing to bring you joy and excitent.】
【But look at you guys. Not taking the ga seriously, and now you're either full of resentnt or totally on edge. Not fun at all.】
【Hehe, of course I don’t an you.】
That last line was directed at Lu Ce.
Everyone stayed silent—no one responded to what the Sli said, mostly because there was nothing to say.
But right after that, everyone froze.
The Sli’s tone suddenly turned eerie and deranged as he continued,
【So, I’m quite disappointed in most of you.】
【Now, the ten players who participated in the fewest gas... I might have to ask you to leave...】
As his words fell, before anyone could react, the floor beneath nine people suddenly opened up. Without a single word, they plumted into the pitch-black depths below!
There was no warning, no prior signal—those nine people had zero ntal preparation, not even an Exit Token ready.
And during the fall, trying to use one was just too hard...
Just like that, they were silently swallowed by the Black Sea. No one knew what happened to them.
Everyone was stunned. No one had expected such an instant-death punishnt.
The first person to feel dread was Xie Antong.
She had clearly seen that those nine weren’t the ones with the lowest star counts. One of them even had four stars!
That ant the ga’s criteria might not be based solely on star count.
Right now, with her holding the highest count at 15 stars, it felt like a hot potato. A bad on.
【Hmm? Why only nine?】
The Sli looked a bit confused, scanning the room before locking eyes with Li Wei.
【Oh right, there’s you too. But you’re under protection at the mont.】
Li Wei paused, not quite understanding what that ant, but the Sli didn’t explain further.
【Well then, we’ll move on. Eleventh person with the fewest gas—goodbye.】
The floor under another player cracked open. But after what had just happened, he was ntally prepared. His Exit Token flashed, and he left the ga.
He lost everything—but at least he kept his life.
“Now... now can we say... people with more than three stars should exit?”
In the dead silence, a trembling voice asked.
