The voice of [Despair] faded slightly for a mont, seeming sowhat intrigued by this person's way of speaking.
[Heh, interesting. Also, let shut down this annoying live stream first.]
The next second, the light sphere shimred in the air, and the ga's live broadcast interface was actually directly closed!
This kind of direct modification of the ga's underlying code was sothing Lu Ce had never heard of before.
"Sin!"
Suddenly, Perfect Life behind him roared furiously, his tone even carrying an unusually violent despair.
Lu Ce didn't turn around, only slightly tilting his head.
"This room—it's alive! And it has divinity!"
The mont his words fell, the entire room trembled, but all three people in the room could see it was the darkness enveloping the room that had pulsated.
At this critical mont, Perfect Life didn't have much ti to hesitate.
He clearly felt that although he wasn't injured or attacked, his condition was rapidly deteriorating!
This was an extrely subtle sensation.
In that instant, he made his decision—he chose to believe in "Sin"!
Facing this pitch-black room and the pale blue light sphere, he chose to believe that the perennial madman was on the players' side!
After speaking, his entire face seed to age instantly in that mont, and he collapsed weakly to the ground.
Though unhard, with tidal wave-like power still coursing through his limbs, he found himself completely paralyzed.
A sense of decay filled his mind, and the emotion of despair overwheld everything at this mont!
On the other side, The Creator wasn't faring much better either.
His entire body instantly went limp, barely managing to support himself to avoid collapsing completely.
This was a power they had never encountered before; they never imagined their spirits could be so fragile.
[You two are sowhat interesting as well...]
[But for now, keep quiet. Let observe this guy first.]
[Despair]'s voice spoke calmly, yet within his tone, Perfect Life and The Creator found themselves unable to utter another word.
It wasn't that they had gone mute; rather, their spirits completely lacked the strength to muster any energy to speak.
The aura of despair spread, even transcending space to perate throughout all the ga rooms.
Players in other rooms similarly felt unusually low-spirited at this mont.
Chiyo Eine instinctively sensed sothing was wrong and subconsciously opened her live stream interface, instantly finding it had gone black.
"Blank... the live stream ended."
"Has the ga concluded? What's happening? We're not trapped here, are we?"
She was feeling quite pessimistic herself now.
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Xie Antong was instantly shocked, feeling a sharp pain in her chest.
The sensation was so intense it montarily stole her breath away.
Clutching her chest tightly, she painfully opened her ga interface to confirm.
Earlier when she felt her emotions were off, she thought it might be her side effects acting up.
But now, the ga had actually ended?!
"This is bad..."
Xie Antong's pupils constricted to pinpricks. She knew all too well what the most likely explanation for this was.
Lu Ce... what have you done?!
Pressing against her left chest, that heart-wrenching pain surged through her again.
The Gate of Death was currently inside her heart!!
This is terrible!
"What's wrong?" Chiyo Eine was startled, not expecting such an intense reaction.
"I must go there!"
In an instant, Xie Antong made her decision, firmly pressing the selection button in her room to attempt entering Room Nine.
But... the teleportation failed!
Xie Antong: !!
They can even alter rules like this?!
What level of existence has arrived this ti?!
......
[Let's continue our chat. Why did you call yourself a frog in a well?]
Lu Ce leaned on his axe, standing like a tombstone. The injuries covering his body showed no signs of healing, yet he spoke with complete calm.
"A fish in the ocean can only perceive how massive the whale beside it is, but cannot comprehend the moon's true size overhead."
"Yet the moon is actually far larger than any whale."
[A rather simple analogy, though not entirely incorrect, heh.]
[Despair]'s voice chuckled quietly.
Lu Ce slowly turned his head, surveying this pitch-black, seemingly living room, and said:
"It appears you've truly co personally, Despair."
"Not so divine ssenger, not an avatar, nor any blood vessel-like entity."
Rembering Perfect Life's words, Lu Ce roughly understood what the other was implying.
[Heh.]
The other party neither confird nor denied, offering no clear stance.
[Your words show self-awareness, but compared to your unrestrained actions, there's quite a discrepancy.]
[What, seeing my arrival has made you sowhat timid?]
[But didn't you consider the consequences before waking ?]
Hearing this, Lu Ce slowly raised his eyes, staring directly at the pale blue light sphere before him.
"What... consequences?"
"I woke you up—so what?"
"You're here—so what?"
Perfect Life: ?
Even Perfect Life, who was closest, doubted his own hearing, looking up with disbelief.
Wait... what are you saying?
Did I hear that correctly!?
[Despair] also seed slightly surprised, taking several seconds before responding.
[What did you say?]
"I said, what can you actually do to ?" The lazy face showed no trace of fear, the dark green mask resembling stagnant water.
"I'm a fish in the ocean. The whale beside might devour ."
"The moon may be countless tis larger than the whale, but... what can the moon actually do to ?"
"Stop pretending. You're powerless to affect ."
Lu Ce's voice carried neither humility nor arrogance, but to those listening, it struck like thunder—a direct challenge to a deity.
[Despair] didn't take offense upon hearing this. After initial surprise, he burst into roaring laughter.
[HAHAHAHAHA! You've got spirit! Quite audacious!]
[Exactly the kind I need!]
As he spoke, the pale blue light sphere began moving toward Lu Ce's brow, causing the dark green mask to distort accordingly.
[No sense of pain, correct? Is this your reliance?]
[Thinking you can brave any suffering, believing death is the worst outco—is this the foundation of your fearlessness?]
[Heh, frog in a well. Do you believe lacking pain ans avoiding suffering? That fearing no death ans escaping despair?]
[HAHAHAHAHA! You ignorant, presumptuous youth.]
Lu Ce: ......
Lu Ce remained silent, but then, swaying unsteadily, he raised his battle axe!
The corners of the dark green mask slowly curled upward, forming a chanical smile.
"Hehehe..."
"Sorry to disappoint, but my ignorance of heaven's height and earth's depth didn't begin today."
"So now! Can you tell !"
"Just how big is the 'moon'!?"
