Chapter 1612 Continue to follow!

Glargon, who was watching from a distance, was initially worried that the great demon Li Yun might take pity on him and try to save Gorbu's life.

No matter how much Gorbu pleaded, Li Yun didn't react at all.

Even after turning his gaze away from Gorbu, he didn't look back at him.

It means completely ignoring the other party.

This performance made Gerargon feel incredibly pleased!

He wouldn't make a fool of himself by saying anything more.

He immediately prepared his words, spoke, and changed his instructions:

"I believe the correct answer to question 21 is 【Assignment】!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the strange face above spoke up:

"The general has changed his instructions."

This time, however, it was no longer a dignified voice, but rather the mechanical announcement it had at the beginning.

"Glargon, keep track of the number of times the bells ring. Each time they ring, give a count."

Lu Li casually gave Glargon a strange command, then continued talking to the strange face above:

"You just said that 'temperance' and 'justice' are not powers you hold or possess, but rather byproducts of 'loyalty'?"

"It sounds like your authority of 'loyalty' is very similar to the ability of [Soul Devouring]."

"Fifty-five!" Gerargon began counting.

“No.” The strange-faced man glanced at Gerargon, whose grin was almost reaching his ears, and replied expressionlessly:

"Power is power, and talent is talent; how can the two be confused?"

"But if you insist on making a comparison, then indeed, in some aspects, the effect of loyalty to authority is similar to the talent ability of soul devouring."

"What's the difference?" Lu Li asked, like a curious child.

"Why are you asking such detailed questions? The authority of loyalty doesn't belong to you; it's already been attracted by Babayak's qualities." The strange-faced man curled his lip impatiently.

"If it weren't for the rules that required us to finish this game, I wouldn't even bother talking to you right now."

"Fifty-six!" Graargon's voice rang out after the booming bells.

"Just out of curiosity." Lu Li chuckled, showing no intention of letting the strange-faced man have his fun.

"The game isn't over yet, so just tell me."

The strange-faced man sighed, his expression complex, and said:

"The answer hasn't even been given yet, how can you be so sure you're right?"

"What if the correct answer is [increase]?"

"My luck has never been bad." Lu Li's lips curled into a confident smile.

"And if I make the wrong choice, you should tell me what I want to know even more."

"Because I would die very soon if I did that. If there are secrets in what you tell me, they will remain secrets after the rest of the bells have rung."

"Never mind, it's irrelevant to me anyway." The strange-faced man sighed, as if he had let go of many heavy memories of the past.

"Fifty-seven!" Gerargon continued counting.

With each rhythmic and precise count from him, Gorbu felt as if he were being fried in a pan of oil.

I'm suffering terribly!

Hope and despair intertwine as time slips away in agony.

All sorts of complex emotions eventually converged in his heart into a single obsession!

fear!

If emotions had a physical form at this moment,

So Gorbu must be choking on fear, watching helplessly as the breath slowly escapes from his lungs.

"The difference between the 'Loyalty' authority and the Soul Devouring talent is that the 'Loyalty' authority focuses more on 'copying', while the Soul Devouring talent focuses more on 'plundering'."

"With all that groundwork laid before, you should be able to guess the corresponding doctrine of ascension to godhood from the keyword 'authority,' right?"

"The prerequisite for wielding the power of 'loyalty' is to be loyal."

“I am His follower, one of His most steadfast companions, and I always have been!”

“I am loyal to Him and can give my all for Him.”

"So loyalty has rewarded me, allowing me to use His authority and His power."

"So, do you understand now?"

The strange face finished speaking, and the bells rang loudly.

Glarigon reported the number fifty-eight.

"So... the powers of 'temperance' and 'justice' are actually the powers held by your master?" Lu Li asked calmly.

“I prefer to call Him ‘Leader’,” the strange-faced man corrected.

"Alright, alright, leader, then your leader must at least be a true god, right?" Lu Li continued to seize the opportunity and probe indirectly.

"My leader is the ancestor of the Seven Saints, the Face of Light." The strange-faced man saw right through Lu Li's thoughts and sneered:

"What else do you want to ask? Ask quickly."

"Once the game is over, I will neither be able to nor will be able to answer your questions."

“Uh…” Lu Li was momentarily speechless.

It's not that he had nothing to ask,

Instead, there were too many questions I wanted to ask, and I didn't know which one to choose.

"fifty-nine!"

Grargon's voice was already tinged with barely suppressed excitement.

After a brief silence, Lu Li spoke:

"What will you do after you give the authority of loyalty to Babayak?"

"Does the power dissipate, leading to utter death?"

He made a strange face and hesitated, not responding immediately.

Lu Li didn't rush him, but waited patiently.

This wasn't a question he came up with casually.

At this stage, it is the largest collection of information he can obtain in a limited amount of time.

"I'll probably forget everything and continue searching for my leader."

Lu Li frowned slightly, clearly not satisfied with this answer, which was mostly romantic.

But the next second, the strange face added two more sentences, which made him suddenly understand:

“I have found her through your memories.”

"I believe I will see her again soon."

"Clang—!" The bell rang out like thunder, making people's scalps tingle.

"Sixty!" Graargon's excited shout was surprisingly not drowned out.

The countdown has ended.

The grotesque face opened its mouth and announced the answer to the last question in a mechanical voice:

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

"When the Divine Will walks in the real world, His innate ability is called [Dedication]."

"No!!" Gorbu's wailing fell rapidly downwards, finally ending with a dull thud.

Although the blasphemous water beneath the tray had been completely absorbed by the grotesque face and the complex mechanical components,

But the terrifying height remains.

Gorbu, whose physical condition was weak due to the various restrictions imposed by the rules, could not withstand such a fall and was smashed to pieces on the spot.

As He had previously stated, the strange face ceased to communicate.

Instead, it manipulated the complex mechanical components, exposing the Babayak that was encased within.
