The bearer of ghosts and gods who return the spell

But Soma Josuke suddenly remembered what that guy once said, "No one in this game should ever leave alive." Wouldn't it coincide with this rule?

The more he thought about it, the more likely it became, and the relatively happy mood that had originally been there was gone.

A series of events last night cost him a lot of time. Perhaps it was during this time that the guy successfully killed one or two swimmers with high points.

"Josuke, you don't look very good. We can think of other ways to get around this rule."

Soma Josuke was stunned.

That's right, there is no use regretting it now, time cannot be turned back, and there is no use being upset about what has already happened.

"Have you thought of any good ideas?"

Yiguyouta said with some uncertainty: "This is just my guess. If you recall the rule carefully, it says that all swimmers who have taken the oath cannot add rules."

Sworn swimmers...

This prefix seems a bit redundant. If you want to become a swimmer who returns from death, you must invade the barrier. If you invade the barrier, you will swear an oath by default. Logically speaking, there should be no unsworn swimmers at all.

People like Soma Josuke are sworn swimmers. If there are unsworn swimmers, there is only one kind of person.

"You mean, people like my sister and Miss Tsumiki, who must enter the barrier to take an oath but have not yet taken an oath, are unsworn swimmers outside of this rule?"

"Yes, but this is not a loophole after all. If you want to set up rules, you must communicate with the game administrator. There should be no golden bugs on people who have not taken the oath, so you cannot add rules at all, and there are no points. .”

"Then what do you mean, Yutai..."

Yiguyouta pondered for a moment and spoke again:

"We can try to add a rule so that such people can also gain permission to add rules and gain points at the same time. For example...sworn swimmers can spend part of their points to transfer their remaining points to non-swimmers , giving it the identity of a swimmer.”

"But this group of people have not yet entered the barrier, that is, the swimmers who have not taken the oath."

It sounds a bit complicated, but Soma Josuke thinks it is feasible.

Because the oath conditions in the rules are just a way to increase the number of swimmers, although this method bypasses the rules, in principle it is to increase the number of swimmers for the death return swim, and it should not be rejected by the game administrator.

"Youtai, after your reminder, I suddenly had other ideas." Yigu Youtai, who was still thinking about the feasibility of the method, suddenly raised his head.

"The rules are written about naming rules. In addition to naming rules, you can also narrow the range of swimmers by limiting birthdays, ages, and genders to avoid problems with the survival of the game."

2 Chapter [-] Response

Souma Josuke seemed a little excited, but he quickly realized the problem.

"No, You Tai, you still remember the first rule of the Death Journey. Awakened people like them must take an oath within 19 days. Retreating without taking the oath may violate the previous rules."

Although the specific purpose of the first rule is to make the awakened people have to kill three families and return, it is still necessary to be just in case.

"Of course, there are problems with my method. It is only suitable for a very small number of people. It is still not very helpful in ending the return of death and destruction."

Yiguyouta nodded secretly, he took it for granted.

If you want to retreat through Souma Josuke's method, you will need more than one and a half points. If all the members are to escape intact, except for Maki who does not have the spell and the panda who has the body of the curse, at least 900 points are needed to set up the rules. , on the contrary, Yigu Yutai’s idea is more feasible.

The annoyance caused by the matter of the Kami's Swordsman made Souma Josuke's thinking somewhat rigid, and he did not think carefully about it for a while.

But this is a way to get other swimmers out of the game.

"Anyway, let's try the original idea first. Even if it doesn't allow our people to withdraw smoothly, it should be able to give some hope to other swimmers who want to withdraw, so that everyone will not start fighting again."

The emergence of this rule will collapse the temporary stable situation that Souma Josuke has finally established. If the ultimate meaning of obtaining points is lost, there is no need to care about the number of points. It is just the difference between dying early and dying late.

At this point, the two have made a decision to test whether the previous method can add entry rules before making any plans.

Otoko Yuta's mind moved, and the golden insect in his body suddenly emerged. It was the first time for Soma Josuke to observe this scene from a third-party perspective, and his attention was instantly focused on the golden flying insect.

"Swimmers are asked to tell us what rules they want to add. There are currently eleven rules. In principle, the newly added rules cannot be mutually contradictory with the previous rules, and cannot affect the long-term operation of the Death Return Swimming."

It was still the familiar mechanical sound of Souma Josuke.

Otoko Yuta did not hesitate and said directly: "Add rules: swimmers can communicate with the game administrator, deduct 50.00% of their own points and transfer their remaining points to non-swimmers, giving them the status of swimmers and the right to add rules."

Under the gaze of Souma Josuke and Otoko Yuta, the golden bug's eyes lit up, its arrow-shaped tail twisted back and forth, and the mechanical voice sounded again: "This rule has been refuted with the previous rule. It has been rejected. Please re-establish the rule." .”

"Which rule was refuted?"

"-Refuting Rule [-], swimmers need to gain game points by ending the lives of other swimmers."

Originally this was just a subconscious question from Yi Guyou, but unexpectedly the game administrator actually answered it.And they didn't expect that it was not because of Rule No. 11, but because of the fourth rule...

"Game administrator, can you temporarily reserve the permission to add rules? I need to think about it."

"After you are ready to start adding rules, the time limit is 30 minutes. If no rules are added before the countdown ends, 100 points will be deducted directly."

It's really dark... Souma Josuke secretly complained.

Yutai Otogu looked at the golden bug in front of him that had started counting down, and was a little speechless.

Currently, the rule that swimmers must be killed to gain points is very fatal to Soma Josuke and the others.

If you don't become a swimmer, you won't be able to get points even if you kill other swimmers, and all subsequent operations will be impossible to perform.

But if we start from this point, there may be a turning point.

"Youta, do you think there can be another method, such as...if a non-swimmer kills a swimmer, he or she will directly obtain the swimmer's identity as a swimmer. However, since he has not yet entered the barrier to take the oath, he can be regarded as an unswimmer."

"Although this is not as stable as direct transfer, it can at least give others a direction. I have met someone who has a reversal technique before, and there should be many more in this game."

Since non-swimmers must not have entered the barrier to take the oath, this condition can not only avoid the random teleportation problem of Yui Soma and Miki Fushiguro after entering the barrier, but also break the restrictions brought by Rule No. 11.

In comparison, it does not violate the previous rules.

More importantly, Article [-] stipulates the method of obtaining points, and there may not necessarily be any restrictions on the objects for obtaining points.

But the question is whether there is a way to achieve this kind of inheritance-like kill determination in Death Retreat.

"What do you think? Just give it a try." Youtai Otoko smiled and pointed at the golden bug in front of him.

"Added rule: When a non-swimmer kills a swimmer, he will directly inherit the swimmer's identity and points and become an unsworn swimmer."

Hearing what Otoko Yuta said, Soma Josuke's face suddenly became wonderful: Otoko Yuta seems to be a little different from before. Not only has he inherited the identity of a swimmer, he has also inherited all the points. This is simply worse than The rules of the point list are even more outrageous, get 100% of the points directly.

However, it may not necessarily be rejected, because to some extent this rule will lead to the birth of more new swimmers and intensify the elimination of old swimmers. On the contrary, it will be beneficial to the operation of the game in the larger process, but Not all the benefits belong to it, there are also considerable benefits to Soma Josuke.

Directly pointing out the most important clue of unsworn swimmers, although there is also the risk of being targeted by other swimmers, their main purpose is to let other swimmers know how to quit. In order to avoid some people not understanding, it is still necessary Pointed out.

After a moment of trance, Soma Josuke heard a familiar voice in his ears:

[Swimmer XXXX (name hidden) added the following rules by spending 100 points]

[Rule [-]: When a non-swimmer kills a swimmer, he will directly inherit the swimmer’s identity and points and become an unsworn swimmer. 】

"How could you be targeted so quickly?"

Naturally, the swordsman on the other side also knew about this new rule.

He is different from others. As a top student who can be admitted to the University of Tokyo, he is also the one who added the previous rule. If he cannot instantly see through the deeper meaning of it, he will not be able to occupy an advantageous position in the return of death.

"Is it that guy? Or some other spoiler who wants this game to stop..."

"Damn it! If you are caught by me, I will definitely make these guys unable to live or die!"

Chapter 241 Advancement

But just when the swordsman under the god was quite angry, another new rule was born.

At present, this rule does not affect the progress of the entire game, but is more specific to a certain swimmer.

[Swimmer XXXX (name hidden) added the following rules by spending 100 points]

[Rule 5: Swimmers can lock the target by inputting the personal information of other swimmers to the game administrator. The locked target will permanently display its current location, points and mana status until its points are deprived.If the locked person kills the target, he can obtain all the points held by the target. If the target is killed by other swimmers or changes the lock voluntarily, [-] points will be deducted. 】

The emergence of this rule shocked all the other swimmers currently within the barrier.

These are the rules of the chase!

It can also display the location of a specific target, and has more terrifying benefits than the point list. Once your personal information is leaked, you will instantly become the target of other swimmers.

And now, there happens to be a swimmer who is extremely eye-catching and whose personal information has been exposed.

The face of the godly swordsman now looks a little ugly. Originally, he just didn't want to be a coward who hides his head and shows his tail, so he chose to announce his name. He didn't expect that such a hunting rule would appear in an instant.

Now, not only his rules are being targeted, but he himself has instantly become the target of public criticism.

The swimmers who are returning to death are not all lunatics who only know how to kill. There are still many who want to quit this horrible game that costs their own lives, but now they are blocked by the swordsman under the god. This result is not good. Quite unexpected.

Almost as soon as this rule appeared, many people had already locked onto the name "Swordsman under the God", including some swimmers with extremely high points.

For them, the Shenxia Swordsman is a swimmer who has obtained more than 100 points, and that is their strong enemy. If they can get rid of it earlier, it will naturally be more beneficial to them.

"Damn it, come on if you're brave enough, come one, and I'll kill one."

The swordsman under the god also gave up hiding at this time, and it would be impossible not to give up. Now he is a more dazzling existence than the point list, and all swimmers in the barrier can find him.

Of course, including Soma Josuke who is far away in Aomori Barrier.

[Locked target: Swordsman under the God]

[Current points held: 10 points (including 5 points for yourself), mantra status: 85%]

"Josuke, is there something wrong with this divine swordsman?"

"You have also seen that this guy's philosophy is an absolute killing sect. If it is not eliminated in advance, it will definitely become a big trouble. Moreover, I was probably fighting with him before and almost suffered a loss. I can't let this guy anymore. Got points."

Yigu Youtai nodded. Just because of this guy's rules, he only used the opportunity to increase the rules. He really wanted to eliminate this time bomb in advance.

He was also very interested in what Souma Josuke said about suffering. Today is different from the past. People who can make Soma Josuke suffer are enough to attract attention.

It's just that this guy is a bit far away from me. It almost runs through the entire island. The straight-line distance is probably about 1500 kilometers. Even I have to spend a lot of time to get there.

Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at Souma Josuke beside him, "By the way, Josuke, I forgot to ask you before, how did you come out of my shadow? Didn't you always rely on shikigami to do it?" Do you want to teleport?"

Otoko Yuta's specific impression of Soma Josuke's strength was actually still in June 2018. Now nearly half a year has passed, and he still doesn't know exactly how much growth there has been.

"Well, this is a new ability I gained after I came back. I wonder if you and Li Xiang can copy it."

Immediately, Souma Josuke explained the main principles of Keja's shadow movement ability of Afterimage, and demonstrated it to Yuta Otoko on the spot.

Although after last year's Hundred Demons Night Parade incident, Otoko Yuta had successfully solved the curse, he only liberated Qimoto Rika's soul.

Love is the most twisted bondage.

In the final analysis, the appearance of the cursed spirit is still caused by Yi Guyoutai forcibly binding Qi Benlixiang to his side. It is just a manifestation of his curse power.
