Chapter 442
The thunder spear behind her had stopped pursuing, but Song Gui's hammer seemed to have a built-in lock-on feature, relentlessly chasing her down.
Was there really no punishment for Song Gui killing a Pain Level player? But she herself could only avoid killing a Fool Level player, and she had no way of knowing what restrictions the Abyss Level and above experts faced.
Yu Xun Ge didn’t dare to look back. Although being eliminated meant death, being hit here until her health hit zero would also lead to death.
There were only 30 seconds left.
Yu Xun Ge abandoned the idea of copying another connection skill to eliminate the anomaly. Instead, she copied a healing skill, pulling her dangerously low health back up.
27 seconds.
When she was struck by the hammer, Yu Xun Ge immediately clung to it, wanting to fly out and attack other raccoons. The raccoon was dragged into the air by the hammer, and as they passed a Serpent Neck Beast, she grabbed its tail and whipped it against the hammer a few times, finally wrapping it around the hammer several times.
In the next moment, she and the hammer were flung away by that tail.
Yu Xun Ge had achieved her goal; force was mutual. The moment the hammer was struck by the tail, they had both completed an attack, severing the connection between her and Song Gui.
05:00, the sixth round.
This was the final round!
As the scene switched, Yu Xun Ge was still a bit dazed.
The last image she saw was the white hammer flying towards her, just ten centimeters from her face, her vision consumed by the floral green magic patterns on the hammer.
As the game restarted, the types of anomalies remained five, and Yu Xun Ge was still the Jiang Jiang Bear.
Her first action was to take off her earring and pop it into her mouth, and her second was to lick her paw and part her fur down the middle, giving herself a new look.
【Notice: The gameplay for rounds three, four, and five has been abolished】
【The final blow in a kill counts as a connection】
【Eliminated players have only one chance to return to the game arena】
【From the first round onward, players eliminated ten times or more will be sent to the Dark Gourmet Street as "Inferior Ingredients"】
【From the first round onward, players who complete ten or more eliminations by the end of the game will arrive at the Dark Gourmet Street as "High-Class Diners"】
【From the first round onward, players who complete five or fewer eliminations by the end of the game will randomly lose two skill icons】
Upon realizing that the Dark Gourmet Street was not a more difficult map, Yu Xun Ge took a neutral stance towards these punishments and rewards.
If the deity wanted to give players like the potted plant, who were ill-suited for this game, a way out, then becoming an inferior ingredient might not be a bad thing.
If the deity aimed to restrict players who had maintained an advantage by choosing the right skills, then obtaining the diner status might not be a good thing either.
But what about the middle ground where neither "High-Class Diner" nor "Inferior Ingredient" could be obtained?
Was there still a "Regular Ingredient" or "Quality Ingredient"? What about "Low-Class Diners," and so on?
The battle had begun, and as Yu Xun Ge fled, she pondered which path to choose.
She had gradually adapted to the rules of the deity's game.
There was no absolute fairness or luck, nor was there absolute right or wrong.
Every choice had its own pros and cons.
The danger level of this round was comparable to the second round, while the gameplay of rounds three, four, and five had offered a significant chance of survival.
Hitting meant connection; if an attack failed, players could quickly adjust their attack routes and change targets.
But only the final blow in a kill counted as a connection, meaning that once an attack began, it was an investment. No one would willingly let a player on the brink of death slip away; they would pursue until all hope of a kill was lost.
She sidestepped to avoid a skill, and the moment she landed, Yu Xun Ge had made her decision.
Compared to the unknown, she still wanted to be a "High-Class Diner," and she didn’t want to miss out on the kill rewards.
Counting up, even if the last use of the 【Roll Roll Lollipop】 counted as two eliminations, she had only completed seven eliminations.
It was time to use 【Mysterious Power】.
If the gameplay of rounds three, four, and five hadn’t been abolished and she could still connect through skills to eliminate, then 【Mysterious Power】 could very well be interrupted, and using it might be a waste.
But since it had been abolished, and eliminated players had only one chance to return to the game arena, this final round was all about the fight.
She just didn’t know if 【Mysterious Power】 would disappear after completing an elimination...
First, she needed to focus on survival. If she could eliminate, she would; if the skill effect disappeared after a successful elimination, she would immediately change her plan to use 【Survive Until the End】.
Having thought this through, Yu Xun Ge immediately used the 【Reward or Punishment】 she hadn’t used until now!
—Reward!
The reward that appeared at the moment she most wanted a punishment felt more like a punishment.
A transparent shield appeared around her, with a value equal to 2000% of her current health.
Attacking the shield didn’t equate to attacking her directly; the attacks couldn’t hit her, and thus couldn’t trigger 【Bedtime Fairy Tale】.
She sighed inwardly. If the "reward" had turned her health into 2000%, that would have been a true reward when paired with 【Bedtime Fairy Tale】.
It needed to be modified; it had to be modified!
【Chapter 575: Deity's Game: Nonsense Restaurant 19】
The battle had begun.
Even while fleeing, Yu Xun Ge kept a safe distance from the Serpent Neck Beast, ensuring it remained within the range of her skill, 【Borrow and Return】.
She needed not just attack skills, but also shield and healing skills.
In just seven minutes of the sixth round, her shield was down to 1851%.
Without 【Bedtime Fairy Tale】, the wine-seeking song felt like a dish on a plate.
She didn’t seek out the Jiang Jiang Bear but instead attempted to kill a player in the form of Mang Ding.
Mang Ding looked a bit like a walking jelly, resembling a piece of dough that had been randomly pressed, lacking a unified shape, and was about the same height as the half-meter tall Jiang Jiang Bear.
Most of the time, they were transparent, but after releasing a skill, they would briefly display color based on the skill's attributes.
Now, there were six types of anomalies on the field: Event Gift Pack, Serpent Neck Beast, Jiang Jiang Bear, Snail Scorpion, Mang Ding, and Duck Sparrow.
Yu Xun Ge couldn’t defeat the Event Gift Pack, Serpent Neck Beast, or Jiang Jiang Bear.
The Duck Sparrow’s battlefield was in the air.
For these seven minutes, Yu Xun Ge kept provoking the Snail Scorpion and Mang Ding, letting them attack her to see how much health she would lose.
Through comparison, Yu Xun Ge felt that Mang Ding was generally weaker.
The strength of the Snail Scorpion and Jiang Jiang Bear was not much different—meaning that in a one-on-one fight, either of these forms could easily crush Yu Xun Ge.
But Mang Ding was different; several had become annoyed by her harassment and decided to teach this Jiang Jiang Bear a lesson, and Yu Xun Ge surprisingly found herself able to trade blows with them.
Nightmare Level was in Mang Ding! Perhaps there was even Pain Level!
Yu Xun Ge took out 【Breach Oath】 and put it on her paw, beginning her pursuit of Mang Ding.
Most of the time, she shot arrows from a distance, copying a powerful attack skill from a nearby Serpent Neck Beast every three minutes.
She was focused on Mang Ding, while the Jiang Jiang Bear was also keeping an eye on Yu Xun Ge.
Whenever Yu Xun Ge encountered a Jiang Jiang Bear that wanted to kill her, she would run.
At this point, some players had completely left the game arena, but even in leaving, they had left behind new troubles.
These eliminated players turned into various new forms of stone sculptures left on the field. These new species, different from the five forms, couldn’t move and had only one point of health; even a scratch could kill them.
If a skill accidentally splashed and hit a stone sculpture, it would shatter, and the connection would be severed.
After the stone sculpture shattered, it would restore itself after three seconds.
This limited area-of-effect skills but didn’t completely restrict them; unless a player first cleared all the stone sculptures, they couldn’t use their skills without risking letting other players take advantage, and it wouldn’t guarantee a kill on the second area-of-effect attack.
Yu Xun Ge used the stone sculptures to trap many of the Jiang Jiang Bears chasing her, but Mang Ding also interrupted her connections several times using the sculptures.
It wasn’t until the 17th minute that Yu Xun Ge finally completed a connection.
【Congratulations, player Zai Jiu Xun Ge has completed an elimination】
【You will receive the death penalty of player Ling Cha Yu Nan】
【Player Yu Nan chose to exchange a divine talent skill for a tenth chance to resurrect in this deity's game; you will receive that divine talent skill as your loot】
【Ding—Extracting kill rewards, you gain mana recovery speed +0.1%】
【You have obtained Yu Nan's divine talent skill—Yes, I am Yu Nan, so what?】
Mang Ding was indeed not a formidable character, and the divine talent was only S-level.
【Yes, I am Yu Nan, so what?】 (S): "I admit I am Yu Nan, the weakest one."
Using this skill, you will become completely non-threatening and inconspicuous; you are a battlefield orphan, with no one to team up with and no one to care about you. Meanwhile, all your skills will become invisible, soundless, and tasteless, and all skills can be forcibly used even if they are on cooldown. After the effect of the Yu Nan skill ends, forcibly used skills will be interrupted and continue their cooldown; this skill lasts for 10 minutes; each use consumes 30% of mana; cooldown time is 1 hour.
Yu Xun Ge examined this S-level divine talent skill for a long time, surprisingly finding it quite appealing.
But it needed some modifications...
