Rumble!
In the sixth grid.
A layer of red light quickly rose from the ground, separating this room from the other rooms. Bai Ruoyao didn't expect such a thing to happen and showed a rare expression of astonishment. The other two groups of players also looked over. Bai Ruoyao soon calmed down and touched his chin.
He made a meaningful 'oh' sound.
"Um … the fighting stage?"
Santa corrected him. "It is the lucky fighting stage. Santa knows that people like to play games.
Children didn't like single-player games. Only by playing with other children could they be truly happy. That is why my lovely child.
Who do you want to choose as your opponent? I am really looking forward to it. "
Bai Ruoyao asked, "Can I only choose the three of them?" He pointed to the Tang Mo trio.
Santa regretfully said, "It seems that you want to play with other children but I have to tell you with regret.
You can only choose these three children. Santa's game is the most democratic.
I will never force a child. This is the only restriction I have on you.
You can't choose the other two groups of people. However, the choice is still in your hands. Come on.
Child, tell me who you want to choose. "
A malicious gaze fell on Tang Mo.
It was impossible to ignore.
Tang Mo raised his head.
He stared coldly at the baby-faced youth.
The two people were separated by five rooms and looked at each other from a distance. Bai Ruoyao tilted his head and smiled. Tang Mo looked calm and unmoved.
The other two groups couldn't hear Bai Ruoyao's words but they could hear Santa and the black tower. They warily looked at what happened to Tang Mo's group.
They couldn't use abilities.
They could only use props.
This wasn't good for Tang Mo.
Fu Wensheng was a bit worried. "Brother Tang won't have an accident.
That psychopath is really powerful. Brother Tang also said that Bai Ruoyao's close combat is very strong. He might not be Bai Ruoyao's opponent. "
Chen Shanshan calmly analyzed, "Bai Ruoyao's lucky die is 6 while Brother Tang's is 1. If he won the fight, he could exchange points with Tang Mo or he could choose not to exchange. However, if Brother Tang wins, Brother Tang can get 6 points. Normal people won't choose Brother Tang to eliminate uncertainty. "However, Bai Ruoyao wasn't a normal person.
Fu Wensheng said, "Why do I feel like he will choose Brother Tang? None of us can think of such a crazy idea …"
That's right, anyone who triggered the "Grand Duel Stage" would never choose a player with lower points than them.
Tang Mo's lucky die was 1 while Bai Ruoyao's was 6. Even if Bai Ruoyao won, he wouldn't get anything. On the contrary, if he lost, Tang Mo would swap his lucky die and he would become a 1. Anyone with IQ knew how to choose. Bai Ruoyao wasn't without IQ but he liked to do things that hurt others without benefiting himself.
Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng both knew this very well.
Bai Ruoyao smiled and touched his chin, his deep eyes resting on Tang Mo. He was about to speak when a calm male voice attracted Santa's attention. "The black tower said that this game prohibits violence. Is fighting considered violence? "
Santa touched his head. "Yes, the black tower prohibits violence …"
Santa seemed to realize this problem and pondered for a long time. Then he clapped his hands and laughed. "Child, you are very thoughtful. How could the great Santa not think of this?" Santa obviously didn't notice this problem but he pretended to understand. "You have to unite and love. Of course, you can't fight but this is just learning from each other. Friendship is first and competition is second. Of course, you can't kill. Santa hates dishonest children the most, followed by children who kill. Therefore, you can't kill them. You have to grasp this degree! "
Fu Wenduo raised an eyebrow. "You can hurt people in a duel but not kill people in a duel?"
Santa nodded. "Yes, you can't kill people."
The interest in Bai Ruoyao's eyes decreased a bit as he asked in a bored manner, "What if I want to kill people?"
Santa replied, "Then Santa will stop you at the first time."
Bai Ruoyao's eyes suddenly lit up. "What do you mean at the first time?"
Santa Claus chuckled and revealed a kind smile. "It means to stop you as soon as possible."
Everyone was silent.
What was the fastest speed?
Santa's strength was unfathomable. If he really wanted to stop players from killing people, he wouldn't fail. But would he really do his best to stop them?
In all fairness, Santa was a boss who was closer to players. He wasn't like Grandmother Wolf who crazily wanted to eat players. He also wasn't like Schrodinger who hated players and constantly looked for opportunities to kill them. However, he always stayed out of it. He seemed friendly to players but he didn't really protect them.
Every player who died in the hopscotch game revealed the true face of this black tower monster.
No matter how approachable he was, he was still a black tower boss.
No one knew how fast Santa Claus would stop Bai Ruoyao if he really wanted to kill his opponent. The players stared at Santa Claus with vigilant eyes, gaining a deeper understanding of this white-bearded old man.
It seemed that Santa Claus felt a little guilty under this kind of naked suspicion. He coughed seriously and decided to save his image, "Children who kill people are all bad children. Santa Claus will definitely punish them."
Tang Mo asked, "What punishment?"
Santa Claus was speechless and held back for a long time before replying, "I will expel all bad children from my candy house and never allow them to enter again!"
Everyone, "…"
What kind of punishment was this?
Santa Claus, "… Then I won't give him Christmas gifts in the future?"
This punishment was so stupid that Mu Huixue laughed. She didn't seem afraid that Santa Claus would get angry and kill her, causing other people to look at her.
Santa Claus slowly put away his smile and said in a hoarse voice, "Bad children will be punished." The tone of this sentence was completely different from before. The players looked at Santa Claus. At this time, Santa Claus had returned to normal and he smiled at Bai Ruoyao. "Well, my lovely child, you haven't chosen your opponent. You have to remember that you can't kill people. You have to play the game well. "
Tang Mo was prepared for Bai Ruoyao to choose him. He saw the baby-faced youth staring at him, showing a malicious smile. Then he pointed with his right hand …
"I choose her."
The young woman froze in place. "I …?"
Bai Ruoyao laughed. "Hehe, it's you."
Under the urging of Santa Claus, the young woman walked to the sixth grid with a pale face. Her body was trembling. She knew her strength best. She couldn't beat Bai Ruoyao. It would be easy for Bai Ruoyao to kill her. Large beads of sweat rolled down from her forehead. She really wanted to question this baby-faced youth. He was clearly an enemy of that man (Tang Mo), so why did he choose her? Couldn't he have a little backbone? Choose the enemy, and kill the enemy with his own hands! Santa Claus didn't say he would kill the bad child.
Bai Ruoyao threw the lucky dice into the air and caught it steadily. He looked back and saw the young woman staring at him with red eyes. He tilted his head and smiled. "Do I look like a fool?"
The young woman was stunned. "What?"
Bai Ruoyao smiled. "I can't get anything by defeating Tang Tang. He is so unlucky that his dice are all 1s. I'm not a fool. Why would I choose him? Hehehe … of course I choose you. "
He was actually answering the young woman's question.
Although they couldn't hear the other group's voice, Mu Huixue, Chen Shanshan and the others could guess what Bai Ruoyao was saying. Mu Huixue laughed disdainfully. "You are obviously afraid of death. What a nice way to put it."
Chen Shanshan glanced at Mu Huixue calmly.
In the sixth grid, when the young woman stood on it, two red socks suddenly appeared in the air.
Santa said, "Put your dice in and the fight will officially begin. Whoever wins will be eligible to choose the socks first. "
Bai Ruoyao stepped forward and looked at the two socks curiously. He even leaned forward and smelled them. "No smell?" Feeling bored, he shrugged his shoulders and threw the dice into his sock. At the same time, he turned back to the young woman and made a throat-slitting gesture to provoke her.
The young woman gritted her teeth and slowly walked up to throw her dice into the socks. The moment her dice fell into the socks, Bai Ruoyao was still turning around when the young woman suddenly stood up. She shouted angrily and took out a silver knife from her pocket.
The silver knife bloomed with a dazzling white light, illuminating the entire Candy House. No one expected the seemingly scared and weak young woman to act so decisively. She took the initiative to attack and caught Bai Ruoyao off guard. The young woman saw the strange silver knife about to pierce the back of Bai Ruoyao's head and was scared. "Don't!"
She thought she would kill Bai Ruoyao and be punished by Santa.
In a flash, Bai Ruoyao moved his head to avoid the knife. The knife seemed to have eyes as it slid in a small circle in the air before shooting at his eyes. Bai Ruoyao smiled. "Hey, this thing is a bit familiar." A hidden weapon knife that tracked the target, this was similar to Tang Mo's Checkmate ability.
Bai Ruoyao's wrist moved and a silver butterfly knife appeared in his right hand.
The silver butterfly knife danced in the air, creating a beautiful flower. Its speed was extremely fast. There was a crisp sound of metal colliding and the white knife was cut in two by the butterfly knife, falling to the ground. Bai Ruoyao didn't stop. He kicked with his right foot and shot out like a rocket, heading straight for the young woman.
The woman was so scared that her face was bloodless. She took out many white flowers from her pocket in horror and threw them out with both hands. The flowers fell to the ground and immediately exploded, restricting Bai Ruoyao's movement. However, the difference in strength couldn't be made up for with a few excellent items. The butterfly knife arrived in an instant. The silver reaper held the scythe and pressed the blade against the woman's throat.
The cold breath of death made the young woman not dare breathe. She only had to move a little and the knife could easily cut her neck.
The smoke formed by the explosion of the white flowers slowly dissipated and the baby-faced youth grinned, showing a bright smile.
"I won."
Bai Ruoyao put the butterfly knife back into his sleeve.
The young woman collapsed to the ground. "I … I admit defeat."
This one-sided crushing situation made Santa very dissatisfied. It wasn't wonderful. He watched as Bai Ruoyao walked to the Christmas stockings and took one. The woman got up from the ground and walked back to the starting point. Halfway through, Bai Ruoyao opened his mouth. "I didn't intend to do it. Hehe, it's 6 so you admit defeat. I didn't expect a bad woman like you to hit me … "
The young woman jerked her head and stared at Bai Ruoyao with disbelief.
"You clearly gestured to me and said you were going to kill me …"
Bai Ruoyao blinked. "I didn't say that."
"You …!"
Tang Mo stood at the starting point and watched this scene from a distance. He turned his head and whispered something to Fu Wenduo. Fu Wenduo couldn't hear him, but he nodded and said something to him.
Psycho.
There were only wrong names and no wrong nicknames.
He was obviously very afraid of death but he liked to court death.
Bai Ruoyao took his die and prepared to return to the starting point. However, this time he jumped back from the sixth grid and triggered the strawberry ice cream tornado attack on the third grid. Bai Ruoyao shouted 'I hate strawberries the most' and accidentally stepped on this grid. In the end, he lost the game and it was Ning Zheng's turn to play.
The other two groups also had players who played to the sixth grid. Once he reached the sixth grid, the black tower's prompt was heard again.
"Ding dong! Player Li Jue successfully triggered the Lucky Fighting Stage. Please choose any player … "
It turned out that the sixth grid was the trigger grid of the Fighting Stage!
The man was stunned at first before recovering. He was so excited that he quickly pointed to a young girl in his group. The girl's expression instantly changed.
This was Fu Wenduo's group. The girl's die was 4 while the man's die was 3. It was obvious that the girl had the worst physical fitness in this group. Even if props could be used in the duel, the man would win if nothing unexpected happened.
As expected, the girl quickly surrendered after injuring one of her arms. The player called Li Jue excitedly took her die and continued his game.
When Santa divided the players into groups, 3 and 4 were one group, 2 and 5 were another and 1 and 6 were another. The first group's points were relatively close and it wasn't enough to make the players go crazy. However, the difference between the other two groups was large. Once the opportunity to change the die appeared in front of them, most players who believed in their strength would never give up this opportunity.
At this time, the weak female players and children became the target of public criticism.
Fu Wensheng was also nervous. He was fine since his points were 2. Apart from players with the same points, no one would choose him for a duel. Chen Shanshan wasn't the same. Without Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, Fu Wensheng couldn't protect Chen Shanshan at all. He couldn't even take care of himself.
Fu Wensheng was worried. "Sister Shanshan, your points are 5. Will they …"
Chen Shanshan patted the child's shoulder. "Don't worry."
Xiao Fu couldn't rest assured.
He had learned from Tang Mo that Chen Shanshan's physical fitness could never be improved due to her ability. She was naturally at a disadvantage in fighting. As a man, he couldn't protect Chen Shanshan. If Tang Mo and his brother were here, there would be a way to deter other players but he couldn't.
The child was thinking about this when a slightly hoarse female voice was heard not far away. "I choose her."
Fu Wensheng looked up and saw a short-haired woman staring at Chen Shanshan fiercely, not hiding the greed in her eyes. Chen Shanshan didn't panic. The short-haired woman had two scars on her face, wheat-coloured skin and thin muscles sticking to her body. She was obviously a fierce character. However, Chen Shanshan calmly walked to the sixth grid. She walked to the Christmas stocking and was about to put her dice in.
Before putting it in, she looked up and asked, "Santa, can I give up on the fighting stage?"
Santa was stunned. "Ah?"
Chen Shanshan asked, "Can I give up or admit defeat?"
Santa didn't respond and replied, "Yes."
Chen Shanshan nodded and threw the die into the stocking. The next moment, she turned to the woman and said, "I admit defeat."
The short-haired woman, "…"
Santa, "…"
Chen Shanshan reached out and took the woman's die, leaving her die to her.
The short-haired woman said, "Wait, you … you admit defeat?"
Chen Shanshan said, "Santa said I can admit defeat. I can't beat you so I admit defeat." She paused and said, "Or do you want to say that you don't want to take my die and you want to take your original die? That was my decision. I can change it back with you. "
The short-haired woman felt like she had punched cotton and couldn't say anything. She took Chen Shanshan's die and muttered, "How can there be such a calm child?" Then she continued her game.
She gave up decisively without any hesitation.
This thin girl was calmer than the players thought. She wasn't strong enough and knew that she couldn't win. She simply didn't fight and directly admitted defeat. Normal players wouldn't risk being punished by Santa Claus to kill her. She wouldn't be in danger but this little girl didn't try at all. She wasn't timid to the extreme but calm to the extreme.
Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng's die were both two points. Players wouldn't specifically invite them to duel in order to increase their points.
Fu Wensheng could understand Chen Shanshan's thoughts but he wasn't as decisive as the other person.
After a while, Fu Wensheng couldn't help whispering, "Sister Shanshan, we only have two points now. The points of the lucky die actually affect the triggered punishment, right? "
Yes, the game had been going for an hour and players had long discovered that the lucky die wasn't just a stone that could be thrown into the grid they wanted to enter. The points of the lucky die affected the dangers players might encounter.
Bai Ruoyao's points were six so he was very lucky. He played until the fifth grid before triggering a punishment. The first middle-aged man to die in the Candy House had one point. He was relatively unlucky and triggered the punishment when he played the second grid.
The same was true for other players' games.
The larger the points, the less the punishment. The smaller the points, the more frequent the punishment.
Chen Shanshan changed her die from five to two so that she wouldn't become the target of public criticism. However, she would start the game in the future and the possibility of encountering danger would increase. In addition, the lucky die had a chance to permanently increase a player's luck value. Of all the gifts Santa gave, this was the only one that all players wanted.
Chen Shanshan stated, "If you want to improve your luck value, the premise is to survive."
Fu Wensheng was surprised but he soon understood Chen Shanshan's meaning. He was surprised. "Sister Shanshan, you mean … many people will die?"
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a shrill scream. Fu Wensheng looked up and saw a young man stepping on the fourth grid, instantly triggering the punishment of the sea of chocolate beans. A three-meter-high wave suddenly surged out of the chocolate bean that was still calm just a moment ago. The wave slapped down and ruthlessly smashed into the man's body. The latter didn't even see clearly as thousands of chocolate beans hit him and drowned in the sea of chocolate beans.
Santa Claus said in a distressed tone with a smile, "This poor child, why did you steal my chocolate beans? If you were honest, you might not have died. "
Everyone was angry but didn't dare to speak.
Chen Shanshan calmly looked at Santa Claus sitting in the ninth house. At this time, she caught a glimpse of a tall figure from the corner of her eye. She turned around and saw Mu Huixue with a ponytail walking to the starting point. She bent down and began to stretch her legs. She did some warm-up exercises and the others looked at her in surprise, only thinking that she was unnecessary.
Chen Shanshan knew that in their group of players, the strongest one was the woman in black who was doing high leg raises to warm up.
After doing a full set of exercises, Mu Huixue squatted on the ground, pressed her hands on the ground and made a starting position.
"Ah, yes, it seems that I have to throw the die first and throw it into the grid I want?"
With a slight flick of his wrist, a white die slid through the air in a beautiful arc and landed in the first room. The next second, black lightning moved and the die just fell to the ground and was firmly caught by a pair of hands. When everyone saw it again, she had returned to the starting point.
It was still the same starting position as before. Even if many players had played the first two grids and these two grids were no threat to her, she didn't have a trace of contempt.
Mu Huixue curled her lips and threw the die into the second grid.
Then the third grid, the fourth grid, the fifth grid … the sixth grid.
Her movements were smooth and there was no extra movement. She simply tiptoed and flew into the next room. She also triggered a punishment in the middle, but the surging chocolate beans didn't touch her and she had already flown to the next room.
Finally, Mu Huixue fell into the sixth room.
Mu Huixue turned to Santa and said, "Can't I choose another group of players?"
Santa nodded. "Of course not, my child. Otherwise, what's the point of grouping."
Mu Huixue smiled regretfully and raised her finger. "Then I choose her."
