The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3753 I only have one task, take it or leave it.
The gatekeeper flew into a rage, but before he could say anything, an overwhelming aura, as vast as mountains and seas, suddenly pressed down on him.
The gatekeeper was shocked and also unleashed a terrifying aura, but it was clear that Lin Chen's terrifying aura was much more powerful.

The two of them standing there, compared to each other, looked like a tough guy and a sissy looking at each other and touching foreheads.

They're not even on the same level!

An expert can tell a lot just by looking at their hands. With the two men exchanging such imposing manners, the gatekeeper knew he was doomed to lose if a real fight broke out.

The gatekeeper gritted his teeth: "You have broken the rules. I will report this to the gods and have you severely punished."

Lin Chen calmly said, "The rules set by the Heavenly God do not say that it is forbidden to do this. If I cannot complete it, and I force you to let me pass, that would be a violation of the rules."

The gatekeeper roared, "I'm the gatekeeper, I'm the one who issues the tasks!"

"Of course you send it!"

Lin Chen answered without hesitation, "I was just giving you some advice, suggesting that you send me a certain task, and then you agreed and sent me the task."

"Did the gods say that your task list can't be shown to anyone? Did the gods say that I'm not allowed to give advice?"

The gatekeeper was speechless, only able to roar in fury, "You coerced me, which is a violation of the rules."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Do you know what task that person wanted to give me in the first level? He wanted me to beat up another gatekeeper and take back his magic weapon. If I can fight a gatekeeper, what's wrong with me arguing with you?"

"Is it really such a small matter? If you report it to the gods, do you think the gods will really care? I haven't violated any of the rules set by the gods. As for you, whether the gods will blame you, I don't know."

The gatekeeper's face turned ashen.

Yes, it's such a trivial matter. If it were reported to the gods, they might blame Lin Chen, or they might not, or they might blame him. Who can say for sure?

The outcome is entirely up to the gods, depending on their mood.

He disliked the other party for being a different race, but the fact that the other party could participate in this game at least meant that the other party was a formal member of a sect above the Heavenly Sect and held a high position within the sect. So what about himself?

He was just an unknown gatekeeper.

Dare to bet?
dare not!

Seeing the change in the other person's expression, Lin Chen roughly knew what the other person was thinking, and advised, "We haven't broken any rules. What's wrong with doing them a favor? Why make things so serious?"

The gatekeeper was silent for a few seconds, then took out a notebook and tossed it to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen smiled slightly, selected a task from the list, and then respectfully handed the notebook back with both hands.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior. The task I've chosen is..."

The tasks prepared by the gatekeepers varied, but they were all roughly the same, nothing more than displaying their martial prowess or some other ability.

Lin Chen's skills are quite diverse, and his strength is considered top-tier among those in the same realm. Therefore, choosing a relatively simple task from among so many others would be something he could easily complete.

Lin Chen quickly completed the task and passed the second level.

Continue north.

Before each barrier, Lin Chen would use the same method to threaten the other party into letting him choose a task, then find one he knew how to do, complete it quickly, and continue forward.

Lin Chen believed that among so many contestants, there were many intelligent and strong individuals, and he was definitely not the only one who would do this.

Lin Chen continued to advance, breaking through all obstacles.

The gatekeepers they encountered were all furious, and most eventually agreed to Lin Chen's demands, but a few refused to comply even at the cost of their lives.

Lin Chen didn't waste any words with those who refused to comply. He simply turned around and left, looking for the next gatekeeper to repeat the same method.

Lin Chen passed through five levels smoothly, but he was quite surprised. Wasn't the amusement park supposed to have all sorts of wonderful things? Why hadn't he seen any?

With questions in mind, Lin Chen arrived at the sixth level.

Lin Chenyi followed suit and threatened the gatekeeper again to produce a list of tasks for him to choose from.

The gatekeeper laughed.

"So you arrived so quickly because you used this method, is that it?"

Lin Chen replied confidently, "There's no violation, is there?"

The gatekeeper smiled sarcastically: "It's certainly not against the rules, but unfortunately your trick won't work on me."

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"

The gatekeeper replied, "Because I only have one task here."

Lin Chen looked surprised: "There's only one mission? You're not lying to me, are you?"

The gatekeeper laughed heartily: "I have only one rule here: whoever can defeat three challengers behind them in a row will receive a gift and successfully pass the challenge."

"If you are confident, then give it a try. If you are not confident, you can leave now."

Lin Chen was still hesitating.

It wasn't that he lacked confidence in his abilities, but rather that he was considering the time cost.

Wasting too much time will only delay our progress in the game, won't it?
What if someone else gets ahead?
The gatekeeper said calmly, "The first five levels are just to warm you up and get you used to it. The later levels are where the real challenge begins. But if you complete the task in the later levels, you will receive a gift."

"In the later levels, each gatekeeper only has one task, so your previous tricks won't work."

Lin Chen looked back and said, "There's no one else here. If I have to wait for three opponents, won't that take a long time?"

The gatekeeper casually pointed, and a portal of light appeared in front of him. He then opened his palm, revealing a sign.

"Take the token and enter this portal. People from other places will also be teleported to this space. You will fight in this space. The loser will hand over the token and exit through the portal. The winner can return after collecting three tokens and give them to me to receive a reward and clear the level."

Lin Chen asked, "Is this the same rule for all players who reach this level?"

"Not really."

The gatekeeper said in a calm tone, "Each area has its own rules. If you don't want to, you can keep walking along this barrier and you might encounter other rules."

Lin Chen understood.

The sixth level may be divided into multiple areas. Each area has its own set of rules. If you do not participate, you will need to go to the next area to participate in the challenges they set.

Whether or not it can be done is one thing, but the time commitment is unavoidable.

By the time you've gone around in circles looking for someone to complete the task, others may have already easily cleared the level and moved on to the seventh level.

Lin Chen didn't waste any more words. He reached out and took the token, confirming, "If you pass through this gate of light, win three matches, and bring back a total of four tokens, you've passed the level, right?"

"Yes, you can only take one card from someone after defeating them. Even if they already have three, you can only take one. You must win three rounds in a row. If you lose, you can challenge them again."

"Okay, I'll be back soon."

Lin Chen took the sign and stepped directly into the portal.
