Stop, I'm about to become a boss!

Chapter 182 Ten Rules
What happens when a fanatic finds out that she's been tricked by her deepest beliefs?
Skinning, cramping, bone removal, soul refining?
Iris doesn't know, but what she can be sure of is that if she is really discovered, she will definitely not die, because at that time, death can even be regarded as a kind of relief that is rewarded.

Self-blame began to spread in the girl's heart.

As Linton said, her relationship with Sargerous was indeed a little too close.

Sargerus has a straightforward personality, and Iris also belongs to the straight-hearted type. If there is no conflict of interest, the two of them may become good friends, but in retrospect, Iris realized that the relationship between them From the moment the relationship between them is established, it has nothing to do with purity.

But fortunately, the relationship between the two of them has not developed to the point where they can talk all night in the same bed, just chatting about trivial matters occasionally, not to the point where they will accidentally expose the false identity.

But even so, Iris still had regrets in her heart.

"hug"

As soon as the words came to her lips, another piece of dessert arrived in time to stop all she wanted to say.

"No need to apologize." Linton said with a light smile, "Actually, if we had no beliefs and false identities, Sargerus would be a person worthy of deep friendship, but there is no guarantee that after in-depth exchanges and the establishment of friendship , she will not threaten our safety—anyone with a strong ZJ belief is an extremely dangerous existence.”

"I see." Iris swallowed the dessert and said softly, "Sir, I will try to avoid contact with Miss Sargerous from now on."

"No." Linton shook his head and said, "What you have to do is not to avoid contact, but to maintain a reasonable distance while maintaining the status quo."

"Anyone's behavior is logical, such as eating when hungry, looking for food when there is no food, calling mom when you can't find it, etc."

"You and Sargerus have established a certain relationship now. If you deliberately avoid her at this time, it will definitely arouse her exploration, and if she becomes suspicious, follow the vine, and it will be easy to find out that our two identities are different. loopholes."

Iris seemed to have a clear understanding: "So, while continuing to maintain the existing relationship, don't you continue to have a deep friendship?"

"Yes, not exactly." Linton scooped up a spoonful of dessert again, "It's okay to have a deep friendship, and it doesn't matter if you talk like a best friend all night, but Iris, you have to be careful not to talk to her about anything. Don't even mention the matter of faith. Open your mouth."

Miss Knight was stunned by this sudden turn, but her body still subconsciously responded to the order.

"Hey."

Putting down the spoon, Linton narrowed his eyes with a smile as he looked at Iris' blank staring face with puffy face.

He more or less understood why people would feed other creatures.

When seeing the other person's cute reaction, what I get is also a pleasant positive feedback!

When she came back to her senses, Iris's cheeks were quietly outlined by cherry blossom pink, and she yelled at him with lowered eyes: "Sir!"

Linton avoided her words, and scooped up the dessert on his own: "In short, it's not a big deal, just pay attention to it later."

"For the rest of the time, just take a good rest."

"After all, our goal has not been achieved yet."

"You mean there is really a question mark man in Lapa City?"

The Commander of Toulon City listened to his subordinate's report with a strange expression on his face.

"That's right." The subordinate said, "As far as we know, No.1 among the participants in the Lapa City competition [Brilliant Gladiator], her code name on the leaderboard is three question marks."

"."

The commander of Toulon City didn't know what to say for a while.

Use question marks as names.

It's really yours!
After a pause, he continued to ask: "Have you found out the specific information?"

"This..." the subordinate hesitated for a moment and said, "only some basic information has been investigated."

"for example?"

"Gender: Female."

"Gender woman?" The commander of Toulon City was stunned for a while, forgetting to scold his subordinates for being useless.

In the secret realm, although that person's face was blurred and his voice was distorted, he always subconsciously recognized him as a male.

It's not that he looks down on women, it's just that in biological competition, men always have the strength bestowed by nature.

The individual championship winners of countless [Brilliant Gladiator Fighting] were all men, which is enough to illustrate this point.

Although there are also many women who have won high rankings in individual battles, like Sargerus, but if they want to climb higher, they will always be short of breath.

"Is it actually a woman?"

The commander of Toulon city tapped on the table lightly, lost in thought.

After a while, he asked again: "Is there any other information?"

".Gone."

"?"

The finger of the commander of Toulon city knocking on the table suddenly stopped moving: "You have been investigating for a long time, and you have found out that someone is a woman?"

"." The subordinate was aggrieved, "There is no way to investigate. People here avoid Lapa City like snakes and scorpions. Even the most elite spies walk around people on the street, for fear of saying a word to them. Words will be infected into their trash."

"."

Only then did the commander of Toulon City remember that under the vigorous publicity of Toulon City, Lapa City is almost no different from Hell and Devil's Den. The people in it all have ten words in one sentence, and eight of them have to sign for you to sell themselves. Deed's trap of the devil.

Under such circumstances, unless it is a dead soldier, it is impossible for anyone to inquire about the news at the risk of their souls being assimilated.

But the dead are not good at inquiring about information, and no matter what, Lapa City is also a compatriot under the banner of the same god, so it is impossible to touch them, so what can we do.

"."

The commander of Toulon City sighed.

"In that case, let's pass on the original plan."

"After the individual battle begins, the people of Lapa City, let's meet one and kill one!"

A few days later, the City Lord's Mansion of Lapa City.

"The individual battle in the second half of [Brilliant Gladiator] is about to begin."

While arranging his clothes, Linton looked at the serious lady knight from the corner of his eye: "Iris, you seem a little nervous?"

"Well, there is a little bit." Iris admitted this frankly.

After a pause, she expressed her worries: "Sir, I'm a little worried."

"worry about what?"

"I'm worried that the people from Toulon will target us."

"Oh?" Linton patted his clothes, turned to look at Iris, "If it's this, it's unnecessary."

Miss Knight tilted her head, and a small question mark appeared on the top of her head.

"Iris." Linton softly called the girl's name, "Do you know why I stood up at the end and exposed our identities to the commander of Toulon City?"

"Eh?" Iris was taken aback, "Is there a purpose for this?"

"Of course." Linton chuckled, "I exposed our origin from Lapa City and our code name, not because I wanted to pretend to him, but because I wanted him to find us."

"This"

"Don't worry, I don't mean to increase the difficulty of the challenge." Linton said, "He will definitely not be able to find us if he looks for it. These are useless."

"Because of the existence of 'Hazy', although I appeared in front of the commander of Toulon City at that time, in fact, he didn't know what I looked like."

"I hid my real appearance, and said a name that I don't know if it's true or not, and I can't confirm it. With insufficient information, they couldn't target me, the instigator, as soon as they came up."

"At this time, what method do you think they will use to take revenge for us taking away the number one they should have."

Iris thought for a long time and said, "Kill everyone you see."

Linton nodded: "I think so too."

"After all, it's too uncomfortable to be robbed of your home when you are about to win."

"So, I exposed our camp and revealed a real and false name, just to confuse them and let them vent their anger on other people when they have no way to directly retaliate against the perpetrator."

Iris was shocked: "You want to treat other people as cannon fodder."

"Cruel?" Linton looked out of the window with distant eyes, "There is only one champion."

Miss Knight was silent for a while.

"Yes, there is only one champion."

"It's you, it has to be you, it can only be you!"

In the arena, players are gearing up for the next round of challenges.

"Brother Meng, tell me, what will the restrictions be this time?"

"I don't know, isn't it a restriction that prevents us from defecating indiscriminately?"

"Huh? That's too much, I play this game just to be able to shit!!"

"."

Koga Ninja came to the Tyrannosaurus Warrior: "Hey, what do you think the restriction will be this time?"

"I don't know." The Tyrannosaurus Warrior looked at him like a fool, "As I said before, every [Brilliant Gladiator] has different restrictions, and it is impossible to know in advance except for the so-called gods." Others. If I can analyze it, you and others will have to kneel on the ground and look at me now!"

"Why don't I just ask you." Jiaga Ninja muttered, "By the way, after entering, it seems that you can't form a team, right?"

"Well." Tyrannosaurus Warrior nodded, "It is said that there is some kind of god watching inside, and those who form a team will be directly deprived of the right to participate, so no one dares to act together in it, no matter whether they are from a city-state or not. Either go around the road or pick up the bench and fight."

"." Koga Ninja rubbed his hands, "Suddenly I want to test the bottom line of the gods, what should I do?"

Tyrannosaurus Warrior hehe said: "Try it, people have tried and listed all possible situations for hundreds of years, and all failed without exception. If you want to open your mind, go for it. The premise is to find A good brother who is willing to cooperate with you."

"Ah Bao, do you know, in fact, you are my half-brother!"

"I don't have your son!"

"."

Just when the furious Koga Ninja was about to refute on the basis of the eighteenth generation of his ancestors, there was a sudden change in the sky.

Players who have experienced it once naturally know what this means, An Anxin closed his eyes, waiting to be thrown into the secret realm.

After the familiar dizziness dissipated, Koga Ninja opened his eyes and subconsciously observed his surroundings.

This glance almost didn't make him go back and faint again.

This place seems to be a desert, with yellow sand all around the sky, and nothing, except for the heat wave, there is nothing.

"Squeeze Ma Ma Di, what kind of place the birds don't shit"

Just as Koga Ninja was about to start his action and explored around his position first, a light curtain suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

[Special rules for this year's [Brilliant Gladiator] personal battle]

[[-]. All contestants will not be able to use any of their own magic, martial arts, weapons and props. 】

[[-]. All contestants can go to any place to search for supplies, including magic, martial arts, weapons and props. 】

[[-]. The ultimate victory goal of all contestants is to defeat others and survive to the end]

[[-]. The final ranking will be based on the survival time]

【[-]. Finally, I wish you good luck】

In the dark corner of the forest, after Linton carefully read the ten rules, he suddenly felt that the form of this secret realm seemed familiar.

"Isn't this the battle royale of the fire?"

"Battle Royale?" Iris poked her head out from behind him and asked curiously, "What is that?"

"Well, it's a game mode." Linton put away the light curtain and looked back at Miss Knight, "Iris, do you understand the rules?"

Iris nodded: "Although it seems a bit complicated, the summary is that as long as everyone is carried out, we will be number one."

"...Almost." Linton laughed, "However, it's not that easy to carry."

Under the rules of battle royale, everyone has almost no combat effectiveness at the beginning, except for the fighters.

As fighters, tempering their physique is one of the trainings they must carry out. When no one can use special means and only has magic power that cannot be used, their physique becomes the best weapon.

"This rule is a bit troublesome for me."

Linton looked into the distance and whispered.

The reason why he was able to defeat the boss by various means in the outside world was never based on his strong physique, but on the special attributes of his own profession plus the combination of skills he acquired.

But now, none of these skills can be used, and the method he is most proud of cannot be realized.
Suddenly, Linton seemed to remember something, turned his head suddenly, and looked at Miss Knight who was vigilant around in surprise.

"Iris? You're still here!!"

　Thanks to the two big guys "Splitting Warlock" and "Tristan the Good Rider" for their rewards, thank you very much! !
