Xie Antong had completely dropped the act.
As she finished speaking, the corners of her mouth began to twitch upward unnaturally.
Her expression at this mont looked exactly like the posture she had adopted when previously controlled by Pleasure.
But it was very clear now that this was her true self, the genuine article.
Or rather, her current state resembled the manic feeling she had when she overdosed on the injection before.
Just like how Wrath, Greed... and other emotions were to Lu Ce, this was originally supposed to be part of her!
"You! Said! What?!"
Pleasure's voice gnashed with teeth in her heart. Even a fool should have realized sothing was wrong by now.
This damned vessel actually had plans to sche against her!
Was she insane? What kind of players were this generation? Why did they feel... so different from the ones encountered before?
She was starting to feel genuinely panicked.
She just couldn't quite understand why this woman dared to sche against her while simultaneously being enemies with "Sin," especially when she was the weakest in actual strength on the field?
What kind of lunatic was this? Seeking thrills at the cost of her own life?
If you said this brought more pleasure, then she really had nothing to say—you were truly taking pleasure to the extre.
Ignoring Pleasure's loud questioning, Xie Antong knew the mask was off. This was the ultimate confrontation, and there was no need for pointless chatter.
Standing in place like a scarecrow, she wore a bizarre smile on her face and closed her eyes.
She had already begun brainwashing herself.
"I am more like Pleasure. This is my body, and that power rightfully belongs to ."
"I can dive into the most tense and dangerous situations, even when my own safety is uncertain, just to find fun. This is my first victory, your first defeat."
"You only dare to tornt and play for amusent when your power and status far exceed others, but over ti, that only brings boredom."
"This is my second victory, your second defeat..."
"Hehe..."
The murmuring whispers held no clear aning.
Xie Antong's voice echoed through the space of the haunted house. No one knew who she was talking to; it seed like she was speaking to "Sin."
After such a fierce battle earlier, suddenly stopping like this seed quite abrupt.
"Hehe."
The Lu Ce in front of her, seeing her suddenly stop to chant, naturally knew what she was doing.
He let out a ferocious laugh, then hurled an axe straight at her!
Xie Antong, who was murmuring with her head lowered, didn't look up. As if guided by so muscle reflex, she tilted her head slightly to the side.
The axe swept past her, barely missing, and flew toward the back.
Crack!
With a loud crash, the heavy axe embedded itself into the ground, as if stuck directly into a cutting board.
Lu Ce wasn't Draven; once the axe was thrown, it didn't fly back on its own.
He chuckled softly, then sat down cross-legged, watching the seemingly insane Xie Antong before him.
"Where did that idiot kick the hourglass to earlier? Tch."
"Aren't you about to die?"
"What are you babbling about? Trying to pull off so 'Ten Victories, Ten Defeats' argunt now?"
"All useless talk. Want to add a bit more for you?"
"For example, you now have two victories, and she only has one, so that's your third victory..."
Jealousy's mouth never stopped. Seeing that Xie Antong's condition was off, he imdiately started talking again.
As he spoke, he cracked his neck and shook off the blood on his body.
He took out a potion, crushed it directly in his hand, and gulped it down.
Although his injuries weren't extrely severe at this point, they were still quite frightening, and he was covered in blood.
Xie Antong hadn't held back earlier. That level of divine power collision left him uncertain whether he had internal issues like bone fractures.
In any case, the earlier storm of actions had given him a bit of Agony value.
Now, the audience, finally catching their breath, found his words oddly amusing.
[: If we're going by that logic, I could also say she now has three victories, while the opponent still has zero, making that the fourth victory.]
[: Stepping on your own left foot to spiral upward, huh? If this keeps going, you could easily have ten thousand victories or more.]
[: Isn't anyone curious about what she's saying? I don't get it. Who is she talking to? That "god's" power?]
[: True, I haven't understood either. I thought she was already considered an Ascendant? Strange...]
Many viewers, seeing the previously intense battle temporarily halt, thought they could take a breather and relaxed a little.
But the relevant experts knew very well that the most critical mont had now arrived.
Especially the top ten who had undergone the Divine Might Baptism, as well as veteran players like the Dragon Group.
Their nerves were stretched taut. The ga had been running for quite so ti, and most other players had already exited.
When they killed the Despair God's Emissary last ti, it was due to perfect timing, favorable terrain and human unity, luring it into a trap, plus the joint annihilation by the world's top three.
That prevented the other side from fully exerting itself, allowing them to kill it in a relatively straightforward manner.
But now... this was a ntal possession type, not a direct head-on clash.
Moreover, Blank...
......
"Dammit, as a vessel, you should have the awareness of a vessel! Go die properly!"
Suddenly, the expression on Xie Antong's face underwent drastic changes, as if she were enduring imnse pain, her features twisting violently.
Pleasure's words directly ca from her mouth, completely insane, with none of the earlier casualness left.
Thud!
With a dull sound, she dropped to one knee. The impact was so sharp it sounded like a heavy hamr striking down.
Pleasure's power erupted violently. Realizing her precarious situation, she held nothing back.
Xie Antong gritted her teeth, unable to speak. Supporting herself with one hand on the ground, she flipped out a knife with her right hand and forcefully stabbed it into her left hand!
Excruciating pain shot through her, but it also kept her sowhat clear-headed. Seizing the mont of clarity, she imdiately injected herself with three doses in one go!
She had no way out. Her current ntal state didn't even allow her to halfway activate the Exit Coin.
And she had to take this step—she wouldn't let this opportunity slip away.
Many people mistakenly thought she had directly ascended, but she knew there was no such easy gain.
She wanted to assimilate this power, imprison it within her body, just like how Lu Ce mobilized the mask, gradually digesting such power.
Although she risked possible loss of self and corruption, this was the price of making a deal with a god.
If she failed, she would fall into the abyss.
If she succeeded, she would forever gaze into the abyss from then on!
