Why is the clock still ringing in Chapter 1611?

"Yes Yes!"

Grallgon immediately responded, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

"The answer to question 21, when the Divine Will walks in the real world, His innate ability should be called [Amplification]."

The complex mechanical components above everyone's heads did not stop pulsating because of Glargon's speech.

The grotesque face, pieced together from twisted flesh, merely turned slightly and gave a meaningful look down below.

Then, with his mouth slightly open, he absentmindedly uttered a sentence:

"The general has given instructions. Players, make your choice."

Gorbu looked slightly stiff despite being in a bad situation, but he didn't show much frustration after the failure of the collaboration.

Instead, his eyes sparkled with anticipation.

At the same time, vigilance is also necessary.

Gorbu subconsciously looked to the other side, only to see Li Yun looking indifferent, as if he didn't take him seriously at all.

"Ha, that's the kind of contempt I wanted!"

Gorbu muttered something to himself, and the next second he saw the Great Demon in the distance reach out and touch the thin iron chain above the iron plate.

Because the surrounding darkness had been cleared away by the grotesque face.

In well-lit conditions, he could clearly see the other person's choice.

It's the thin iron chain above 'Loyalty'!

This guy finally fell into the trap!

Gorbu's heart began to pound wildly.

My gaze was fixed on the thin iron chain being pulled downwards, causing a series of complex mechanical components at the top to operate in unison.

When the ripple-like mechanical rhythm ended, and when the great demon's hand loosened the thin iron chain and fell back to its side...

Gorbu finally stopped hiding it!

Seeing the black mist around him suddenly erupt like a steam engine at full power, he quickly reached out his hand towards the thin iron chain in front of him!

catch,

Pull it down hard!

"Idiot, moron, moron!"

Do you really think I'm going to tell you the correct answer to this question?

"Even an idiot could see that the correct answer to this question is 【Destiny】!"

"Now I'm the only one who chose the 'betrayal' option, and I've chosen the correct answer!"

"Li Yun, Gerargon, you two can just die in peace! Hahaha..."

The entire space was instantly filled with Gorbu's sarcastic remarks.

Until a bell rang out, its rumbling never ceasing.

Gorbu's arrogant smile froze on his face, and he stood motionless like a stone statue.

"What, what's going on..."

Why is the clock still chiming?

"Shouldn't the countdown end immediately after everyone makes their choice?!"

Upon hearing the question, the strange face hanging above everyone's heads turned slightly and looked at Golb with a hint of sympathy.

Then, as if determined to play the role of the game host, he remained silent with an expression that suggested he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Gorbu panicked completely.

The frozen expression of ecstasy on his face vanished instantly, leaving only fear and dread.

"Sigh, you said even an idiot could see the correct answer to this question, so why do you think I can't?"

"Besides, don't you know I have a title that can change the rules?"

Lu Li spoke softly, shattering the last shred of hope in Gorbu's heart:

"Why not use the title to change the ending rule for the last question to only be considered finished after all sixty bells have rung?"

Why are you making such a fuss?

"But...but shouldn't that title have already been taken by the succubus who won the game first?!" Golbu's lips turned pale, and he spoke in a trembling voice:

"You couldn't possibly change even this hidden rule, could you!?"

"Uh, you've reminded me of that. I really didn't think of that before..." Lu Li blinked and muttered to himself with a look of sudden realization.

He then immediately followed up, responding to Golb with an extremely innocent tone:

"I have indeed not changed the hidden rule that 'the first player to accumulate enough survival points can steal the strongest trait from a general.'"

"Then why wasn't your title taken away?!" Golb asked incredulously, immediately looking up at the strange-faced man.

"Didn't you say you were biased towards me?"

"Why are you cheating so blatantly?!"

"Hey, hey, hey, I didn't cheat, don't make false accusations..." the grotesque face finally couldn't help but reply:

"This guy's strongest trait has indeed been taken away by Evelina."

"Moreover, the hidden rule contains the underlying logic of the world's construction. Even if I wanted to help him or cheat, with my current status, I simply cannot control that hidden rule."

"So, besides the title of 'Rule Tamperer,' Li Yun possesses other, even stronger traits?" Golb stared in disbelief.

The worldview he had built up over most of his life collapsed in an instant!

What quality could be better than the ability to tamper with the rules?

Could it be the authority of the gods?

The Great Demon Li Yun actually possesses the authority of a god?!

"Hey, so which trait of mine was taken away?" Lu Li seized the opportunity to ask.

"You ask me about your strongest trait?" The strange face rolled its eyes, its expression full of disbelief.

"Yes, aren't you an omniscient and omnipotent god?" Lu Li asked, feigning a humble and eager-to-learn demeanor.

"Oh, sorry, God's Remains."

The strange face rolled its eyes again, its incredulous expression turning into a faint look of disdain:

"Although I was able to know your secret through my authority of 'fairness,' I did not have time to read all the contents."

"The trait that surpasses the title of 'Rule Tamperer'... is probably authority?"

"Oh? You also have the authority of 'fairness'?" Lu Li immediately grasped the key point from the strange face's reply:

"To wield 'loyalty,' 'temperance,' and 'justice'?"

"You're at least at the level of a pillar of the world."

"No, that's not it." The strange-faced man clicked his tongue and replied unhurriedly.

“I have not truly mastered ‘temperance’ and ‘justice’.”

"We can't even be called owners; we can only use them temporarily."

"The only authority I truly hold is the power of 'loyalty'; everything else is merely an accessory that 'loyalty' brings me."

"Could you explain it more clearly?" Lu Li asked patiently, showing great interest in the matter.

But just then, Glargon's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting his conversation with the strange face.

"My lord, the bell has rung 50 times."

"Oh, then change the instructions first, so you don't forget later." Lu Li gave the order casually, seemingly not caring at all.

Their calm and serene demeanor contrasted sharply with Gorbu, which was not far away.

"No, do not change the instructions!!"

"The correct answer is [increase], it really is [increase]!!"

"Li Yun, Gerargon, you have to believe me, I'm not lying to you, I really am not lying to you!"

Gorbu, on the verge of collapse, had long lost the most basic ability to think.

At that moment, he was like a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

They used every conceivable means and method, just to change the terrible ending that was about to come.
