After saying this, although the Arbitrator appeared very formal on the surface, the fluctuating energy vividly revealed His inner turmoil.
"Now, before the ga officially begins, please both sides choose: who will be the player at the table, and who will be the chip contributing life."
Before Lu Ce and Xie Antong on this side could react, the first one who couldn't hold back was actually [Pleasure].
Bathed in divine light, He looked at the Arbitrator and said with a frown:
[What kind of garbage rule is this? Is this the 'more interesting ga' you talked about?]
[Both sides participate in the ga simultaneously, and neither side can win relying on just one person alone, but your rule essentially makes it a ga played by only one person!]
[What are you playing at!? Is this the ga you said even you had never seen before!?]
"Hahahahaha! Yeah, I don't see a problem with it," Lu Ce laughed heartily from the side.
"This rule actually fits quite well. Neither side can win relying on just one person alone."
"After all, you can't win without chips either. It's very fitting with the the!"
Xie Antong looked at him speechlessly from the side, not understanding where they got such a good attitude from.
This bizarre rule, which completely abandons one side, simply doesn't resemble a normal betting ga.
But it's also good, at least between the two gods on the other side, they definitely are still unwilling to give up themselves. Their problem is slightly bigger than the one between and Lu Ce.
Thinking of this, she proactively spoke up:
"Can you explain now how exactly one becos the chip, and how one gets on the table to gamble?"
The Arbitrator thought for a mont, then shook his head:
"No, theoretically this shouldn't affect anything, but the rules are as such."
"I can only say that the side acting as the chip is absolutely not useless. In fact, it should be said to be very crucial."
The Arbitrator knew what he should do as a judge, but in reality, the rules didn't restrict Him much now. He could say whatever He wanted.
But He didn't do that, because He felt that if He didn't follow the procedure in this ga, ssing around arbitrarily, He might completely lose control of the situation!
Regardless of what threats [Sin] had previously insinuated, He had already said that He should just adjudicate according to a fair situation!
His expression beca much more formal as He looked at the two gods and said:
"I can guarantee that the ga has no issues. I haven't even made any personal micro-adjustnts."
"Furthermore, my last ruling might have caused a lot of controversy. Both of you also seed to say things shouldn't be ambiguous."
"Although I cannot disclose the specific rules, I can state that this wager has clear criteria. Victory or defeat will be defined by explicit standards, not by . I will rely be the executor of the Ga's Will."
[Death]: ?
You don't have to make it seem like we're afraid to accept the challenge! We're just asking about your rules!
......
"Why hasn't the ga started yet?"
"The rules don't seem to have been clearly explained yet. It seems the gods over there aren't willing to accept them!"
"What? Their ga can't be accepted just because Sin added two conditions? How did Sin see their weakness so quickly?"
The mountain-toppling, sea-roaring voices from both sides made [Pleasure] involuntarily scratch His ear, even though He didn't actually possess such a thing.
He had never imagined that one day He would be emotionally disturbed by the voices of ants...
[Such troubleso humans... The people of this world are quite annoying.]
Muttering softly to Himself, He said sowhat irritably to [Death]:
[Sigh, whatever. It's just a ga. What ga could we possibly not win? It was set up according to our ability characteristics anyway.]
[So, when it cos to gambling, it should naturally be who plays, right? And you are Death. Hmm, betting with life fits perfectly...]
As He spoke, a rarely seen, sowhat embarrassed smile appeared on [Pleasure]'s face. He moved closer to [Death] and said:
[So, just let play. Could I possibly lose to them? You can be the chip wagering your life for . Hehe.]
[Death] gave Him an utterly speechless sidelong glance and said calmly:
[Did I ever say no? You've been jumping up and down all this ti, just afraid I wouldn't agree, right?]
[But it should be you anyway. This aspect definitely considered your Divine Power characteristics.]
[Pleasure]'s face instantly blood with an exceptionally radiant, almost charming smile.
[I never noticed before, but now I realize you're not that petty after all.]
[Alright, don't worry, I'll definitely...]
[But!] Death suddenly raised a hand, stopping Him. A force of lifeless silence pressed down heavily.
[But, you better watch yourself...]
[Winning is the bare minimum. That's not up for discussion. The key is, don't you dare play outside the lines. If you dare ss around recklessly with the chip...]
He didn't specify what, but the threatening implication was exceptionally clear.
However, [Pleasure] wasn't angry at all. Instead, He smiled with a hint of ingratiation.
After all, [Death] was stronger than Him. Having Death act as His chip to play with was practically defying the heavens.
……
The two conversed, their words concealed by Divine Power. Apart from initially telling the Arbitrator they could accept the ga, no one knew what they were discussing for the rest of the ti.
On the other side, Xie Antong and Lu Ce were also discussing this topic.
Who would be the chip, and who would play the ga? This was a crucial question.
But Xie Antong didn't think it was that crucial.
After barely a mont's thought, she directly raised her hand and pulled off her single-lens glasses!
—That was His All-Seeing Eye!
"What are you doing?" Lu Ce was montarily stunned by this sight.
"For you. Although I don't know if you can use this thing, I've developed it to a rather impressive degree. If it weren't for the lack of Divine Power, it could almost be considered a divine artifact."
As she spoke, Xie Antong handed the All-Seeing Eye over.
"You can familiarize yourself with it first. In short, it's useful. Let be the chip."
"Hey, hey, don't decide everything unilaterally. Shouldn't you be the one at the gambling table?" Lu Ce spread his hands and said with a smile.
"This is the correct choice. For victory," Xie Antong said with a frown.
"Your Lust and Greed are both powerful at the gambling table, especially when facing gods. Your ability to be unpredictable is clearly stronger than mine! Plus, you'll have my All-Seeing Eye."
"As for the chip... the role with diminished function, let handle it. Using life as a chip is just a gimmick anyway. Gambling against gods inherently ans betting one's life!"
