Xie Antong was montarily stunned. Hearing such "normal" speech patterns from the other party made her temporarily unable to process it properly.
It was like you had been communicating with a ntally ill person, then suddenly they started saying sothing quite logical.
How could the other party's thought process suddenly beco so clear, completely lacking the chaotic, disjointed feeling that Gluttony normally exhibited in his usual state?
But after these words were spoken, she could simultaneously feel the aura emanating from him—that violent, explosive sensation as if he might detonate at any mont...
had grown even more intense!
Only then did she suddenly understand that ntal chaos was probably Gluttony's self-protection chanism.
If he forcibly suppressed his chaotic mind and forced himself back to rationality, the backlash he would suffer was likely unprecedented!
Lu Ce was holding her body, gripping her hand, and forcibly pressing it against the gray button again and again.
Moreover, Gluttony showed no signs of continuing his chaotic state. Instead, he abruptly turned his head to look at the many large screens behind him.
By now, more and more rooms were being selected for punishnt. Everyone had the chance to experience the wonders of hell without waiting in line.
When that crimson face looked over, almost everyone's breathing beca erratic.
Those eyes seed capable of piercing through space, breaking the constraints of Tongue-Ripping Hell, and seeing them directly.
That feeling of being stared at like prey made them instinctively uncomfortable.
"Everyone, I'm giving you two choices."
"You can press the button yourselves, making it impossible for to find you sooner."
"Or, you can choose to wait—wait for to find you, then I'll kill you first before attending to my own matters."
Perhaps Gluttony was truly approaching his limit, as he had started using phrases like "kill you" rather than "eat you."
"Additionally."
Gluttony suddenly looked up at the sky, baring his sharp teeth with a hint of laughter.
"That Aladdin's Lamp-like thing."
"Haven't you been playing dead for a bit too long?"
"Don't worry, we will definitely et... hehe."
The Bearded Divine ssenger: ...
Was this so kind of... declaration of war?
He remained silent, rely continuing to manipulate each room.
In the other rooms, everyone who heard such direct provocation and threats reacted differently.
Chiyo Ming, subrged in the blood pool, slightly curled the corner of her mouth but couldn't muster much charm.
There was no helping it—in that man's eyes, aside from appetite, she hadn't seen any other desires.
"What a terrifying fellow~."
Club Ace snorted coldly, really wanting to say sothing tough.
But for so reason, deep in his heart, he felt sowhat fortunate he hadn't encountered this guy earlier.
So he said nothing, simply prepared for battle and began pressing the gray button in his own room.
anwhile, Xu Long was sowhat enjoying the spectacle. Soaking in lava without currently being punished, he actually laughed heartily upon hearing Lu Ce's words:
"Haha! Quite the character. The mont he speaks, it's still the sa old him."
...
Regardless of what others thought, after speaking, his body swayed as if he had expended too much rationality, nearly collapsing on the spot.
Even Xie Antong, whom he was holding, swayed along with him twice.
[: Crazy! This is the feeling, this is the "Sin" I'm familiar with.]
[: Exactly! No holding back at all. None of this cooperation nonsense—this is the feeling of entering and imdiately considering everyone an enemy by default.]
[: Why did that low-intelligence state seem sowhat cool for a mont just now?]
Xie Antong glanced at the ga's live stream and thought, isn't this conversation problematic now?
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't you stop forcing to press this button and just kill so you can press it yourself?
So she gritted her teeth and said directly:
"So then, you... shouldn't you just kill directly?"
"What do you an, are you looking down on ?!"
Her thinking was still stuck in the phase where she and Lu Ce were cooperating with each other.
However, what she didn't know was that after speaking those sentences, this guy had already returned to his intelligence-reset state.
Completely unaware of any problems or loopholes, he was back to being unable to understand human speech.
"Ah... right."
He spoke confusedly while pressing the button confusedly.
Then he started muttering to himself again:
"What 'right'? Uh, forget it..."
"Who are you? Why are you in my hand?"
Xie Antong: ...
Alright, this guy had already said what needed to be said. There was no communicating with him now.
"You sll so good..."
Hearing this phrase again, Xie Antong scread internally:
Could you please not make a phrase that could be quite ambiguous sound so terrifying!
The repeated punishnt enhancents had made the restraints binding her exceptionally rigid, impossible to break free from.
But since the Little Devil had been eaten right at the start, there was no one to administer punishnts. She had beco just a button-pressing machine.
There really were quite a few bugs in these hell rooms...
By now she didn't know what to say anymore. She just felt that the guy before her might truly be approaching his limit.
Perhaps, depending on the situation, she should try rging with the Pleasure power again.
Suddenly, the All-Seeing Eye transmitted information back, causing her whole body to tremble. The green light above her head lit up.
Through persistent, unrelenting selection of the gray button, they had finally lit this hell room's indicator to green.
"Oh? It's done..."
Seeing the situation before him, Lu Ce threw Xie Antong in his hand far away, tossing her to the other side of the room.
She landed on the ground.
Xie Antong: ?
Wait, although it seed they had cleared the level, it appeared the restraints on her body still couldn't be removed.
Above, another green light had lit up—she didn't know whose it was.
In this hellish ga, aside from "Sin," had soone finally managed to press their own green light?!
But she had no ti to see who it was. She was just puzzled—why throw her so far away?
From the looks of it, did Lu Ce... not intend to let her leave this room?!
Under her gaze filled with confusion and shock, the crimson Gluttony in the distance had already pressed the gray button before him himself.
He vanished from the spot.
Only the gray button remained, sitting lonely in place.
That's right—Lu Ce had thrown her away using his rationality. There were things he couldn't articulate properly with words, so it was better not to let her get involved.
Because...
As Gluttony continued devouring, he seed to have developed so powerful sense of sll regarding "food."
He kept feeling that the Bearded Divine ssenger's scent was different from other Divine ssengers.
He... didn't seem like a Divine ssenger!
