The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 1200 Gentleman’s Game

Old 7 was stunned. He stared at Wang Shu, trying to see some traces of conspiracy on this beautiful woman's face, but he only saw a natural and sincere smile.

After a few seconds, he took a deep breath, gathered up his courage, and took a few steps forward.

Lao 7 almost raised his heart to his throat, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and gently held Wang Shu's hand.

No different.

They are just the hands of an ordinary girl. The fingers are slender and soft, and the skin is smooth and slightly cool, like daffodils stained with dew in the morning.

Old 7 held it for a while, confirmed that there was nothing abnormal, and nodded.

He stepped forward and held Old 7's other hand.

Old 7 activated [Signing] and announced: "In the next ten minutes, Awakened and Lazy Wangshu will play a guessing game to determine the outcome."

"During the game, both parties prohibit any means or form of cheating. The winner will live, the loser will die, and the defaulter will lose his life."

"Once both parties agree, the contract will take effect immediately."

"Lazy Wangshu, do you agree?"

"Agreed." Wang Shu replied.

"The Awakened One is here, do you agree?"

"Agreed." He replied.

"Weng—"

A ripple of energy swayed from Lao 7's body and turned into a gust of wind, ruffling Wang's relaxed hair.

I was overjoyed: I succeeded!

Old 7 only signed a contract with Wang Shu. Even if he lost the guessing game, only one person was killed, and the other three could still default.

After that, he wanted to pretend to be confused, but Wang Shu didn't stop midway.

Wang Shu, Wang Shu, no matter how lazy you are, you have to study the terms carefully when signing a contract, otherwise you will suffer a big loss sooner or later.

After feeling complacent for a few seconds, she then thought: Maybe Wang Shu didn't care at all. After all, once she died, she had a high chance of winning against the three.

"You can start." Old 7 let go of their hands and retreated to a safe distance with Hong Xiaoxiao and Nana.

Taking a deep breath, he sat down cross-legged, one meter apart from Wangshu.

"Come on, let's see who is lucky." Liao Liao said, clenching his fists and hiding them behind his back.

"Okay." Wangshu nodded, clenched his fist and hid it behind his back.

It seems like a simple guessing game, but with the guarantee of [signing], neither of them can cheat. Once they decide what they want to do, they can't change it.

"I'm counting three, two, one." Old 7 shouted from behind: "You guys take action together."

Wangshu nodded slightly and blinked lightly.

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

The two of them took action at the same time.

Wangshu punched out his fist.

Out of the cloth.

Got the win.

……

"Ah!" Old 7 howled at the top of his lungs: "We won! We won! Damn we won!"

"We won... we, we won..." Hong Xiaoxiao's heart, which had been hanging all the way, finally fell to the ground. She could hardly believe that she actually won.

"Hmph!" Nana put her hands on her hips and said with expected pride: "How dare you challenge my king's destiny? You are simply overestimating your abilities, and it's like a bird flying to shake a tree!"

After picking up the cloth and looking at Wangshu's fist, she repeatedly confirmed that she had read it correctly, and her heart, which had almost stopped, came to life and began to beat wildly.

To outsiders, this guessing game is simple and easy, but only she knows how much mental pressure she endured and how many brain cells were burned in the first few seconds of making a decision.

Thank God she won.

The three companions behind him quickly calmed down after experiencing a brief but extreme joy, and were ready to fight at any time.

He was still sitting on the ground, but his body began to mobilize energy, ready to fight at any time - no one could guarantee whether Wangshu would cheat.

However, if you violate the "contract", you will pay a heavy price even if you don't die.

Four pairs of eyes stared at Wangshu.

Wang Shu smiled faintly: "That's it, you won, I'm willing to admit defeat."

His face was expressionless, but he was shocked in his heart: No, is this really a gentleman's game? !

Wangshu unhurriedly tore open a lollipop and put it in his mouth, "You are so lucky."

"It's not just luck." He confessed, "I made the decision after thinking over and over again."

"Why?" Wang Shu blinked curiously, "You've never guessed my punches before, how could you guess what I was going to do?"

Liao Liao raised his right hand and made it into a fist: "Most people will make a fist and hide their hands behind their backs before guessing."

Wang Shu nodded, "Yes, what does this mean?"

Liao stretched out two fingers and turned his fist into scissors, then retracted it, spread his palm again, and turned his fist into cloth: "There is a difference between the three."

Wangshu was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized: "Ah, so that's it, haha, I'm so lazy."

Wang Shu was sincerely convinced and said, "That's it, you are so awesome."

"Thank you." He tightened his eyes and said, "I'm willing to admit defeat, you said so."

"Ah."

Wangshu still held the lollipop in his mouth and looked up at the white moon above his head. The soft luster in his eyes could not be said to be nostalgia or sadness, "Okay, I really thought about the question you asked me last time, haha. I don’t know where I made the wrong move, but I’m inexplicably concerned about this matter.”

I was stunned for a while, and it took me a long time to remember what I asked.

"Is there an answer?"

Wang Shu Yanran smiled, "Want to hear it?"

He nodded.

"Maybe, human desire is not for self-destruction..."

Wangshu's body became transparent, and the energy in his body began to peel off, turning into wisps of moonlight floating into the air.

From a close distance, one can truly feel that these moonlights are not the second form of laziness, but real cold light that no longer has the breath of life. Wangshu is indeed committing suicide.

"Human desire is just to prove that life existed..."

"Wow—"

Wangshu's translucent body could no longer be maintained and turned into a gentle wind, scattering in all directions.

She disappeared completely, and a lollipop fell to the ground, slowly rolling to her feet.

The dead beast is lazy and looks comfortable.

died.

Still sitting there, she picked up the lonely lollipop and looked at it quietly.

1204. Ignorance

Dongyu District, Apple Island.

As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but scorched earth, and flames from the explosion are burning everywhere. Under the light of the white moon, they look like clusters of coquettish gray flowers, as if they were born in hell.

The only bright color in this hell is a golden "phone booth". It looks so lonely. Even if there is a phone, I don't know who to call.

"Ding--"

The absolute barrier shattered and turned into a sky full of golden energy.

The horse stayed in place, while Chen Ying sat slumped on the ground.

After an unknown length of silence, the horse sighed softly: "Chen Ying, I think I am qualified to say that I understand how you feel at the moment, but we still have business to do."

Chen Ying buried her head deeply and did not move.

The horse continued: "Chen Ying, cheer up and [feel] whether greed is dead. The final battle is not over yet."

Chen Ying remained indifferent. The horse hesitated for a moment, then squatted down and put his hand on Chen Ying's shoulder: "Chen Ying..."

A chill ran down the horse's spine, and he tried to retract his hand, but it was too late.

The evil sense of dominance came back, like thousands of sinister threads passing through his flesh, spirit, consciousness and even soul.

Everything about him no longer belongs to him.

——Greed is not dead!

This was the horse's last thought.

"Hahahaha!"

As if on the empty and scorched ground of hell, greedy laughter could be heard.

Countless vertical eyes, large and small, reappeared around the horse and Chen Ying. These red eyes opened strangely, staring faintly in a common direction.

At the intersection of the sightlines of all vertical eyes, an energy body composed of black thin lines slowly appeared, as if it was composed of the sightlines of all eyes.

The energy body rotates in a vortex and surges around.

A crimson vertical eye slowly opened in the middle of the vortex. There were no pupils in the vertical eye, or in other words, there were an infinite number of pupils, so it gave people a feeling of infinite stacking, like two broken mirrors comparing each other. Then it reflects an infinitely large and infinitely long messy space.

This is the true nature of greed.

"Poor, ignorant, stupid..."

Greedy's voice seemed to come from the void, with a deep and gloomy echo: "In front of me, you have no secrets. I know your plans clearly."

Yes, when the greedy first step of snooping was successful, the four of them had no secrets left.

They have been successfully "scanned" by Greed. Although Greed has not connected their fates, let alone possession, it has shared all their memories, thoughts and innermost emotions.

Because of this, Greed was able to recreate the "slices of fate" of the four people and fight with them.

Therefore, Greedy knew Jiuhan's trump card from the beginning and knew the rings he and Anhe Singers wore.

Greed continues to act with the four people, and it is not worried at all, because neither the original Li nor the subsequent Li is its true identity.

Its ontology is conceptual and has always been hidden in all the destinies it occupies. These destinies are the highest level of wealth in the world and its true treasure house.

As long as the greedy entity does not show up, theoretically, no one can really kill it.

Greed only needs to show itself when it is completely integrated with the fate of others.

Integration is the final stage, which is to make the fate of others completely your own.

After Jiuhan and An Hege touched Li, they accelerated Li's possession and have now successfully merged.

With Jiuhan's fate, it would be easy to spy, connect and possess Chen Ying's fate again. Just now, the horse touched Chen Ying's body again, thus hastening his own death.

Now Greedy can safely add the remaining treasures to his treasury.

Greedy looked down at the immobile horse and Chen Ying: "Come on, give everything you have and share eternity with me. This is the other side for all living beings..."

Greed did not continue.

Just when she was about to complete the last step of fusion, she suddenly "saw" a picture, which was a slice of Chen Ying's future destiny.

Chen Ying knelt alone in front of Jiuhan's tomb, crying silently.

——Wait, how is this possible?

Greed did not intend to kill Chen Ying and Jun Ma immediately. After completely taking away their fate, she still decided to be the one behind the scenes, control the two chess pieces, and use them to deal with other awakened people.

Therefore, the two of them do still have a "future" to speak of.

But in a future dominated by greed, Chen Ying would never be able to kneel alone in front of Jiu Han's grave and cry. This must be Chen Ying's spontaneous behavior.

This shows that Chen Ying's fate is out of the control of greed.

how can that be!

Unless...greed failed to take away Chen Ying's fate?

Yes.

It did fail.

Greedy realized that the fate of Junma and Chen Ying, like the data that was transmitted to 99.99% but suddenly got stuck, could never be completed.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

A certain will puts strong shackles on greed.

"U--"

The surrounding space trembled slightly.

The gray, white, and black world instantly returned to its original color, and then, a solemn, distant, and ancient voice came from the distance.

"The Lord comes and all living beings surrender."

dragon!

It's a dragon!

How can it be! Didn't he go to deal with arrogance?

Greed gave up the fate of the horse and Chen Ying without hesitation, and wanted to hide it in his treasure house again.

Useless.

When Greed heard those eight words of dragon, it had already become a sinful person, and what awaited it was God's judgment.

At this moment, greed finally tastes those who died at its hands.

Standing there, motionless, not even qualified to despair.

After a while, a figure appeared on the distant horizon.

It was a tall, thin man with indistinguishable gender and beautiful eyes. He was wrapped in a pure white cloak, with bare feet and long pale hair. He looked like an ascetic who had been wandering for thousands of years but remained spotless.

He was clearly still on the horizon, clearly walking so slowly, but in the blink of an eye, he had already appeared in front of Greedy's eyes.

In the domain of dominance, dragons are gods.

God can do whatever he wants.

"No, this is impossible! You, you should never be here..."

The voice of greed is so fearful that it doesn't even know that even the qualification for fear is given by the dragon.

If a sinner should leave anything behind before he dies, it can only be remorse and fear.

Of course Greed has no remorse. The black energy vortex around it spins faster, trying to cover the red eyes in the middle, but it can't.

The dragon was not interested in the embarrassment of Greedy's dying struggle. He stretched out his hand and tapped the horse's forehead.

"what!"

The horse woke up with a start and completely took back his destiny.

He was breathing heavily like a drowning man. When he saw the dragon, he thought he was dreaming: "Captain Dragon... you, why are you here?"

"Otherwise, where should I be?" Long smiled faintly.

The horse was speechless for a moment.

"Thank you for your hard work, leave it to me next."

The horse understood immediately, and without any nonsense, he picked up the unconscious Chen Ying, launched a jump, and ran away from the dragon and Greed as fast as possible until he reached the edge of Moon Island. Only then did he feel that he had passed through a thin layer of magical Energy barrier.

He stopped and turned around to take a look, and his scalp suddenly went numb.

Most of the Moon Island is completely enveloped in a semicircular gray domain ball. A rough estimate is that the diameter of this domain ball is at least five kilometers.

The horse knew the weakness of the domination field, and he wondered: wouldn't something happen to such a big field ball, such as being hit by a bird or bitten by a mouse?

Suddenly, the horse reacted!

——After the third hour of the Blue Tribulation, all irrelevant creatures disappeared, so the dragon dared to play so big!

——As expected of the eldest son of Cang Dao (the younger son is Gao Yang), the one who is favored is really confident!

The horse immediately took several steps back, keeping a safe distance from the surface of the domain sphere, for fear that he would accidentally puncture it.

Looking at the huge domain ball in front of him, the horse suddenly had a terrible idea: If the dragon's [Domination] reaches level 8, can the domain cover a district or even a city?

If Long can do it, then he is really not bragging to deal with the Seven Death Beasts by himself.

However, the dragon itself also has to bear the damage caused by the judgment on the enemy.

In this case, even if he could kill the Seven Death Beasts, they would all die together.

This is the real reason why Long can't be the main force, because Long can't die here yet. He said that he has his own mission, which comes after Gao Yang.

What could it be?
