Gao Tianzun was a famous gambler in the Multiverse, and his figure could be seen in almost any gambling-related matter across the Multiverse.
He simply enjoyed the thrill of the reveal of a bet, which was why the format of the bet was not important. According to Saber's knowledge, the Universe Elder had once sneaked off to a certain planet when he was extremely bored, loitering among the boorish gamblers for years, all for the sake of enjoying a little gambling to the fullest.
Come to think of it, one would lose nine times out of ten when gambling. Once involved, there would be a day when one would lose everything no matter how rich one was. Gao Tianzun had gambled for more than a hundred thousand years, and yet not only did he not fall, his gambling business was flourishing with each passing day. That was enough to prove his attainment in the art of gambling. Of course, it was not just because of his good luck.
The concept of gambling was closely linked to the word 'cheating' from the moment it was born. Any skilled gambler was an expert at cheating, and while gambling appeared to rely entirely on luck, skilled gamblers would in fact think of ways to minimize the element of luck when gambling.
Babatos took advantage of this bet in advance and used a deceptive method to realize his own cheating. In the end, he threw a projection into the bet, seriously destroying the fairness.
Still, to be frank, the ruler of the dark Multiverse had underestimated Gao Tianzun … Actually, our Universe Elder was not completely unprepared.
"You're saying that you're holding back as well?"
Saber calmed down in the increasingly cold Universal Furnace, allowing the dark quicksand to wrap around his body once more. "You're cheating too? You scum … use whatever method you have! "
"No, no, no. I'm not cheating!"
Gao Tianzun said somberly.
"Even if I wanted to cheat, I wouldn't use such a shameless method, but Babatos tricked me. Alright, I'll admit that when I built this timeline universe, I did not pay much attention to the clues hidden beneath reality, and Babatos even shamelessly found a Universal Furnace that was almost extinguished from who-knows-where … Trust me, this superfluous move is our last chance!"
"Babatos's understanding of the cosmic furnace is too shallow. He doesn't know what's left in a furnace that's extinguished by force. Listen to me. The extinguishing of all things is a long process. When the furnace slowly cools down, the Void Elements it absorbs will burn fiercely. In the end, it will restart an era together with the universe. However, once the furnace is extinguished by force, the Void Elements inside won't be able to burn completely and will condense into a special metal. What you need to do is to find it!"
"Can it help me defeat Babatos?"
Saber asked. Gao Tianzun snorted.
"Of course not! Although this thing is called the Tenth Metal in some worlds and is said to have endless possibilities, trust me, it does not increase one's combat power by much. It is more of a symbol. We usually use this rare and precious metal to save some dying universes. Just a little bit is enough to reignite the Universal Furnace. Back then, I was fully responsible for maintaining the furnace of the multiverse in the Universe Elders Council. No one knows this better than I do. "
"After you find these metals, put them in the center of the furnace … But your fire will not be able to ignite it, so you still need a badge!"
"What badge?"
Seiber asked in confusion. Gao Tianzun's voice became strange. He coughed awkwardly to hide his emotions and said softly, "You're right.
"Cough cough, it's the badge that I gave you … I added a little 'thing' to it. When necessary, it can temporarily connect to reality so that my power can seep into it … I'm not cheating! Bastard, don't look at me like that. I'm just … Well, I'm just afraid that you will encounter an accident. This function is to save you! "
"Oh? Is that so? Then I must thank you for your kindness! "
Seiber grunted. He stretched his body that was getting tighter and tighter. He said softly, "You're right.
"Now! Get me out of this damn thing first! "
"Wait a moment!"
On the other side, outside the gambling world, all the gamblers saw that the timeline world was quickly engulfed by Babatos's cold darkness. They let out sounds of joy and regret. Obviously, the gamblers thought the outcome was clear.
The Overlord that Gao Tianzun had chosen was indeed powerful, and almost made a comeback in a hopeless situation. However, it was a pity that Babatos, who was good at cheating, was still more skilled than him. No matter how perfect his preparations were, they were nothing in the face of absolute power.
But no matter what, this unique gamble was indeed exciting, and the audience didn't feel that the loss of their bets was as painful as before.
"Sigh … Still a little short."
Gao Tianzun, who was sitting at the gambling table, sighed regretfully, while Babatos, who was sitting on the other side, laughed proudly.
"Indeed, just a little short!"
He used his withered finger to make a gesture that deserved a beating. He said cheerfully, "This is the most enjoyable gambling game I've ever experienced. I'm looking forward to our next bet. Gao Tianzun, you will be a great opponent. Very rich and … stupid!"
"You!"
The Collector sitting beside Gao Tianzun heard the mockery and couldn't help but stand up, but Gao Tianzun just snorted.
"It's not certain who will win the next time …"
He stretched out his finger and flicked it gently. Three cigars appeared in his hand. He stood up, and this action did not arouse any suspicion. He threw one of the cigars to Babatos and gave one to the Collector.
At that moment, with the force of the flick, a gentle force came from Saber's fighter badge. It squeezed out a crack in the dark quicksand that bound Saber's body, allowing him to escape quickly. He turned into a phantom and disappeared into the huge black substance. In less than 20 seconds, a group of shining silver-white metals that were as bright as glass was piled up by him.
"The tenth metal that even you have to look at differently?"
Saber looked at the pile of strange metals and narrowed his eyes. He waved the sandalwood fan in his hand, and a quarter of the metal disappeared. After doing all this, he flung his left hand, and the black Fighter King badge was thrown onto the surface of the metal.
At the same time, Gao Tianzun put the cigar to his mouth and flicked it with his left hand. A scorching flame jumped out and ignited his cigar. At the same time, it spewed out from the black Gladiator King badge through the connected power tunnel and easily ignited the pile of tenth metal.
Therefore, in this universe that was crazily corroded by the darkness summoned by Babatos, at the core of the spreading darkness, the completely extinguished and cooled universe furnace once again ignited a burning flame from the deepest part. It quickly … dispelled the surrounding darkness and smoothed out the chaotic order!
Babatos's exasperated voice rang like thunder.
"Gao Tianzun! You deserve to die! You despicable cheater! "
"Hmm? What did you say? "
Gao Tianzun no longer had the gloomy expression from before. He slowly changed his posture and sat on the chair with his legs crossed. He looked at Babatos and said softly, "I'm sorry.
You should have observed the things he brought with him when he entered the gambling house. You didn't … But this isn't a reason to stop me from doing some small tricks, is it? "
"Babatos, I'm looking forward to the next gambling match with you. You're a good opponent, richer than me … and stupider than me!"
"Hahahaha!"
Dark red wine glasses appeared in Gao Tianzun and the Collector's hands. They congratulated each other on their victory while Babatos shouted gloomily.
"It's still not certain who will win! Of course, you can ignite it again, but … my projection only needs to reach out … to extinguish it! "
"It's just a waste of time! Victory belongs to me! "
Amidst his angry roar, the dark projection waved his hands. Two dark blades made entirely of darkness smashed towards the slowly recovering world furnace from the left and right. They were like two sharp blades piercing into the body, wanting to end the life that had just been extended in this universe.
Bang! Bang!
Two cold, silent, and annihilating blades approached the blazing furnace. A dazzling blade appeared from the darkness, and the burning purple flame shattered the blades silently. Under Babatos' murderous gaze, Seiber's figure emerged from the reignited universal furnace.
This time, he was no longer wearing a black windbreaker and hunting attire. Instead, he was wearing a set of dazzling silver-white battle armor. The Tenth Metal that was melted by the flames, the metal that was full of hope and claimed to be able to change the entire world, shrouded the Savior's body at this moment. Even the battle scythe in his hand was covered with a layer of silver luster that intersected with the purple flames.
"Hey, dark old man!"
Saber floated in the radiance. He hooked his finger at Babatos, who was above his head. "Come, let me see how much power you have left in this projection after forcefully replacing the universe.
"Come, let me see if the current you can break through my defense and hurt the big treasure that has just awakened behind me …"
Swoosh!
The silver scythe in Saber's hand drew a bright light before his eyes. He stared at Babatos.
"Come on! Like just now, proudly announce that the victory belongs to you! Then, open your dog eyes and see … who will pick up the trophy in the end!
"When I kill your projection that has used up all its energy, when I step on your head and watch the world return to order, your insults and curses will be the most beautiful song to me. And I … I will enjoy the irony!
"One day, Babatos, one day, I will find you in the real world and have a good chat!"
"Arrogant!"
Babatos, who was almost driven crazy by this counterattack, raised his hands and wanted to use his remaining power to throw Saber into his dark universe again. This time, he swore that he would torture him in the cruelest way and let him feel the most terrifying pain in the universe!
"No one! No one can ignore the darkness! "
Boom!
The surrounding stars jumped again. Just like before, the surrounding space-time started to change. However, this time, Saber was connected to the universe furnace that was burning again under his feet. The scorching light of life enveloped his body and fixed him in this reborn universe.
He squatted down, reached out his hand, and patted the universe furnace under his feet.
He said in a deep voice, "Even if this is a universe created for entertainment, you are unwilling to suffer such a meaningless sacrifice. Facing your own creator, you still have to resist … You are a strong universe. Little guy, you helped me, so this time, I will help you too!"
Boom!
Under the radiant light of life, purple flames soared in the dead starry sky like an angry dragon that crossed the stars. The ultimate power boost of 65536 was completely added to Saber's body. He looked at the illusion of the shocked Babatos above his head and his lips curled into a ferocious smile.
"Are you ready to face the judgment? Great Multiverse Ruler … "
"Listen to the universe's unwilling roar, listen to its unwilling roar of defeat, I! Your judgment! Come! "
Boom!
Because he had switched universes twice, the illusion of his energy being depleted flashed by the purple storm. In the dim darkness, he lowered his head and looked at his body that was ignited by purple flames. In the next moment, a large hand that was burning with flames appeared behind him, holding his head in its hand.
Saber whispered in his ear.
"Like I said … I will enjoy this hard-won victory. How does it feel to be defeated by an ant? Great Ruler … "
The Tyrant held the noble head in his hand, and in front of him, endless light scattered across the entire dead universe. Behind him, endless darkness howled and scattered. He stood in the light, and the tenth metal that wrapped around his body faded away bit by bit, turning back into fuel for the universe furnace. The dead universe was reborn because of him.
This filled him with a sense of accomplishment and a hint of pride.
No matter what, this difficult battle, this terrible gamble that put him in a hopeless situation … he finally won!
Wait … he won?
No, no, no … he was still far away … In fact, he was still a small step away …
