Chapter 1598 Unexpected Loyalty?

Golbus was unsure for a moment and could only continue to watch and adapt to the situation.

Fortunately, Lu Li had no intention of talking to him.

After a period of silence, he gave instructions.

"I think the answer to question 11 should be [chaos], [devourment], and [destruction]."

A mechanical announcement quickly sounded, announcing that the remaining three players could pull the thin chain and make their choice.

There was naturally nothing much to say about Babayak and Gralgorn, as they remained loyal as usual.

But a questioning voice came from Golbus:

"Do you know the answers to these eleven questions for sure, or are you just guessing randomly?"

"Why did Lord Li Yun tell you this?!" Before Lu could speak, Babayak shouted in a protective manner:

"Just make your choice honestly!"

"Haha, the master didn't say anything, but you were shouting so happily..." Golbu mocked him without any hesitation.

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to add:

"I'm asking this question because you're both Goblins, my compatriots."

"Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary." Gralgon immediately helped Babayak and said:

"We are not the same as you, you should take care of yourself!"

Golbu didn't take it seriously, scoffed, and continued:

"You're not the same as me? Then who do you think you are the same as?"

"Demon Li Yun?"

"Do not be silly!"

"He's just using you temporarily!"

"Once he accumulates enough survival points and wins the game, and you two are no longer useful, will he still care about you?"

"I'll throw you away like garbage right now!"

"Don't waste your energy trying to sow discord. Just make a choice quickly!" Babayak's voice was filled with anger.

"Don't be impatient, I'm just asking your master." Golbu still maintained a leisurely and playful pace:

"If he's just guessing, then I might have to choose the 'betray' option and take a gamble..."

"Hmph, just choose 'betray' and lose all your survival points! Go die!" Babayak said forcefully, concealing his worry.

"Master Li Yun's choice is definitely right!"

"I hope I won't disappoint you, Baba Yak." Lu Li suddenly added in a dark voice, with a hint of joking that one's own people were tearing down one's own reputation.

"Sir..." Babayak was stunned for a moment, then immediately asked:

"Should I choose the betrayal option?"

"Huh?" Lu Li was very surprised:

"Why do you ask."

"Because this way, even if the answer you choose is truly wrong, you won't lose a lot of points just because too many players are 'loyal' to your instructions." Babayak responded seriously.

"After all, judging from the previous rounds of questions, the more people who follow your incorrect instructions, the more points you'll deduct."

"If I choose the right one, won't you lose a lot of points?" Lu Li asked curiously.

"If I remember correctly, your current survival score is only 55 points..."

"It doesn't matter if I die!" Babayak said hurriedly, interrupting for the first time:

"I am your recognized follower, and I should bear these risks for you!"

Lu Li opened his mouth slightly, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

He certainly knew that Babayak would not rebel.

But from beginning to end, he did not give it 100% trust.

At least compared to the salty succubus Evelina, her level of trust in Babayak is still relatively low.

Frankly speaking,

He didn't even know why this guy was so loyal! ?

Could it be because of his damn personal charm?

Lu Li shook his head, trying to get rid of those unrealistic thoughts.

Because he didn't know how to respond to Babayak's statement, he could only put the matter aside for the time being and casually said two perfunctory words:

"With such a small score, you should continue to be 'loyal' for now."

"Don't worry about me. Even if I get this question wrong, I'll only lose 30 points at most. It won't kill you."

"Yes, sir," Babayak responded immediately without saying anything more.

After all, in his opinion, a reminder is just a reminder.

Giving too many reminders would be an overstepping of one's authority.

The friction sounds of the thin iron chain being pulled came one after another.

Even the alienator Golbus did not hesitate much in this round.

To be on the safe side, choose to be "loyal" to the general's instructions.

The timer clock suddenly stopped, and the mechanical voice announcing the answer echoed in the darkness:

"It has been detected that all players have given their choices. The correct answer will be announced below."

"The original creation??? The authority it holds is [chaos], [devourment], and [destruction]."

"All players who answer correctly will receive 5 points for survival."

"The general gave the correct instructions, and the survival score increased by 15 points."

"Some instigators failed to provoke even though their answers were correct. Their survival scores will not be increased or deducted."

"Good luck." Lu Li raised his eyebrows, as if he had already guessed this result.

Everyone was happy except for Golbu, whose score remained the same.

"I don't believe you'll be so lucky on the next question! According to the rules, you should be given a question I know the answer to..."

There's still not much pause.

The mechanical announcement sounded normally, and began to announce the next question:

"Question 12: For the Chosen One, if they wish to ascend to the throne of God and complete the transformation of authority from 'possession' to 'control', they must adhere to the corresponding tenets of ascension."

"Excuse me, if I wish to wield the power of 'Sacrifice,' one of the seven sacred powers, what should I do to perfectly align with the corresponding creed of ascension?"

"A Chosen One who wishes to remain anonymous claims that all he needs to do is use his authority to create an inevitable miracle, then stage a self-directed 'sacrifice' to perfectly align with the creed of ascension corresponding to 'sacrifice' authority."

"And another voluptuous and charming demi-god insisted that to perfectly fulfill the creed of ascension corresponding to 'sacrifice', a true sacrifice alone was sufficient, even if the cost was extremely heavy."

"Now, start answering."

"This time the problem has finally returned to normal..." Lu Li muttered to himself after the bell rang.

He was not completely unfamiliar with the concept of 'sacrificing' authority.

I had heard Evelina mention it when I was chatting with her before.

It seems that it is Mrs. Octopus's old lover Black Whale who has this authority.

However, he really didn't know how to do it in order to perfectly match the corresponding creed of ascension.

Evelina didn't bring it up, and he didn't ask any further.

For now, we can only figure out the relevant content bit by bit based on the information we have already obtained.
