Xie Antong said those words, but what she really wanted to do was warn Lu Ce - he couldn't keep eating like this!
She had always been particularly curious about how Lu Ce could be so certain he wouldn't be overwheld by the power?
Or was he taking risks every single ti, just fortunate that nothing had gone wrong before?
If this Gluttony didn't have a clear limit, wouldn't he eventually beco an unconscious existence that only knew how to devour?
She always felt the risks were far too great.
Additionally, there was one thing she was considering how to ask.
—Why was he only absorbing energy without releasing any?
She rembered understanding the operating principle when she first saw this Gluttony mask long ago.
Endless consumption, absorbing energy, but the energy didn't truly belong to him - he would eventually have to release it.
Moreover, the more he ate, the more ntally confused he beca, and the easier it was to lose control.
But this ga had been going on for quite so ti now, and the other party seed to have never released his power.
If he was truly eating to the point of losing his mind, why not use the power when taking action?
That way, back in the Mortar and Pestle Hell, he wouldn't have been beaten so badly - at the ti, watching him, she genuinely thought Lu Ce was about to collapse.
However, this question was one she couldn't ask aloud.
She wasn't sure if all the other players understood Lu Ce's ability chanics, and speaking carelessly might not be good for him.
But... if this extre energy storage was sothing Lu Ce was doing deliberately.
Then it ant he believed the current Divine ssenger was powerful!
So powerful that Lu Ce was using this extre thod to increase his chances of victory.
Was that Aladdin's Lamp... stronger than previous Divine ssengers?
She fell into her old habit again - even though they were still in combat mode, her mind had already wandered off to ponder her own questions.
She really had no sense of crisis at all!
Perhaps subconsciously she felt safe right now...
Suddenly, her arm went numb, and she fell heavily to the ground.
Gluttony had released his grip, watching her body crash to the floor along with the torture device.
Only then did she realize that her hand had long lost sensation, with serious blood circulation problems.
Now that it was released, a tingling numbness spread through it.
"What? Can't eat anymore?"
Xie Antong looked up at that red face and asked with a smile.
The red Gluttony stood silently like a statue, gazing down at the person beneath him without saying a word.
Suddenly, he spoke haltingly:
"I sll... a different scent."
"You and Him... both... very delicious..."
Xie Antong: ?
What did that an? It sounded rather abstract.
What different scent? Since he ntioned it now, it must be related to her.
Could it be... Pleasure?
Did Gluttony's form have this special effect? Could he actually sll sothing like that?
"What nonsense are you talking? Has your one-way consumption state completely robbed you of your senses?"
Seizing this opportunity, Xie Antong quickly spoke up, conveying her warning.
But the crimson face shook slowly and said:
"Not... the ti."
Xie Antong's pupils instantly contracted - this sentence basically confird it was Lu Ce speaking to her!
She could feel that every rational word consud enormous ntal energy from him.
But...
Suddenly, the Gluttony before her kicked out, accurately sending the red button from Xie Antong's hand flying away!
Even now, Xie Antong's hand still hadn't recovered normal mobility.
"This guy..."
Then the tall figure bent slightly, lifting Xie Antong directly from the ground, leaving her feet dangling in the air.
Due to the continuous energy absorption of the second-stage Gluttony, Lu Ce's body showed so external manifestations - becoming more robust while also appearing taller.
At least two ters tall, definitely.
Now lifting her from the ground was like picking up a little chick, creating a strangely cute contrast.
"Huh?"
Xie Antong's body was still restrained, not understanding what the other party intended to do. Why was he lifting her up?
She didn't feel any sense of exertion, as if being hoisted by a crane.
"What... what are you doing?!"
Seemingly sowhat flustered and angry, she demanded loudly.
But with her current lack of resistance ability, the questioning sounded rather weak.
Gluttony didn't speak either, carrying her body as he walked in one direction, arriving before a gray button.
Grabbing Xie Antong's hand, he forced her to press that button!
Yes, just like that.
Xie Antong imdiately understood.
Since after Lu Ce turned the button green, people in the room could still be judged guilty again.
Then using this thod, having the people in the room themselves continuously press until they got a green light would work!
But, if that was the case...
Had he already determined that it didn't matter who pressed the green button?
Xie Antong felt sowhat confused.
But Gluttony remained silent, just persistently gripping her hand, pressing that gray button over and over again.
After pretending to struggle vigorously a few tis, she stopped acting - after all, given her current combat power, being suppressed by "Sin" was perfectly normal.
Hmm... the sensation of him holding her hand felt strange, like being gently grasped by a giant beast - a feeling she'd never experienced before.
"So, have you figured it out yet?"
Xie Antong looked up as she spoke.
Only four green lights remained overhead now.
Clearly, those rooms that Lu Ce had worked so hard to turn green had been successfully judged guilty again.
All the players had unanimously chosen that even if they had to start over from scratch, they wouldn't let any room remain green because of "Sin."
"But, it seems a bit too late now. Let guess - in all the previous rooms, they might even actively choose to be judged guilty."
"No one will cooperate with you. Your previous actions were ultimately futile."
"It looks like from now on..."
"Then just kill them." Gluttony suddenly spoke, a hoarse voice erging from his vocal cords.
"I never intended to cooperate with anyone."
"I will only force them."
"Just like I'm forcing you now."
