Chapter 301 Bottled Prisoners (Twenty Five)
"You can take a guess."
Faced with the questions ahead of him, Crime Seeker William was obviously reluctant to answer.
"The Riddler? Let me think about it."
He rubbed his chin before paying.
"I have heard of this kind of death game a lot before."
"Generally, this kind of thing is organized either to satisfy the bad tastes of high-ranking people, or to serve the legendary devil's food, the negative emotions, pain, despair, anger, etc. that arise when people are threatened with death."
"And in this competition, this special concept is extremely eye-catching, and it is directly expressed in the form of the fire of sin."
"In addition, after you obtain the Sin Fire, you will obviously strengthen yourself. This should be one of your goals."
"Besides, there is another question here. Your behavior is different before and after."
"Before, you really looked like a brainless canned person. I feel that in that state, you were just a projection summoned in a special way, not a complete person."
"If it's just to collect sin fire, you don't have to go to all this trouble. Just stay in your current state."
"Can I infer that the way you are now is not enough to last for long?"
Fu Qian looked at the justice enforcer curiously.
"That's enough."
The latter was silent for a long time and finally said.
Sure enough, although the previous state was weak, it was better than stable.
It seems that the reason why this person doesn't want to run a marathon with him is also for this reason. He can't last long like this.
"So when you discovered the statue for the first time, and after being purified, you discovered that the sin fire can enhance your own strength?"
Fu Qian continued to ask.
"Later than that."
Seemingly realizing that there was nothing he could do for the time being, William answered honestly.
"For a long time after that, I didn't realize the changes, until one day, an exploration team broke into this place."
"I understand."
Just tell me before you pay.
"They happened to break in while the goddess was 'watching' you, and you found yourself summoned here in a special state?"
"Yes, since then, I have realized that as long as the fire of sinful karma is generated, I will feel the call. And as long as I accept it, I can transform into a special form and answer the call."
"It was an indescribable state. Even the thinking was out of control. All one had to do was follow instinct and kill."
"At the same time, if you are truly immortal, even if you fall, you will be able to answer the call again soon."
"Even with killing, can you become stronger and stronger?"
“I’ve become so much stronger.”
From William's distorted voice, you can still hear his excitement.
"I was just an ordinary mid-level extraordinary at the time, but just that one time, I felt that my strength had more than doubled."
Increased strength...
Fu Qian frowned slightly, realizing that this person's statement was a bit strange.
"But you can't feel the improvement?"
"The so-called hierarchy is just an illusion."
William snorted, admitting it.
"That's when I realized that my thoughts had been imprisoned all this time."
"I am very sure that I don't need to care about any cultivation methods or hierarchical rituals. As long as I continue to collect the fire of sin, I can grow without limit until I become an unimaginable existence!"
"So this redemption plan appeared, which is very reasonable. Few people can refuse such a temptation."
As for this narcissism, I will not comment before paying.
"I have tried many methods, and this is the most effective."
"First of all, the fire of sin can only appear under the gaze of the goddess, and I don't have much time every year to use it." "And the fear of death and the desire for survival will make the fire of sin burn as quickly as possible."
"There will even be people who can help you gather them in advance to facilitate harvesting at once."
Added before payment.
"Yes, they worked very hard for this, haha..."
Before paying, I heard William's laughter for the first time.
To be fair, it looks a lot like a duck that has swallowed Yang Zi.
"Thank you for your candor, I think I basically understand."
Fu Qian let out a sigh of relief.
"Also let me think about it, besides Patrick, you should have killed the other final winners, right?"
"...Yes."
"It is known that you can't get sinful fire by killing people outside, so it should be for other reasons."
Continue to analyze before paying.
"You can guess again."
"This is too simple, because except for the butcher, they have all been purified, right?"
Fu Qian asked almost immediately.
"You are worried that they will discover the secret of sin, and you don't want your position as the number one sinner to be threatened."
"Yeah, those people are not stupid, I can't take this risk."
William admitted it generously.
"It looks like you were right to be worried."
Fu went to the ground and pointed.
"Except for the murderous butcher, everyone else should have some sense. For example, this one understood it quite quickly."
"He deserved more."
Looking at Yun's body with his head missing, William snorted heavily.
So much resentment?
"Let me think about it, this crazy swordsman, relying on his strong strength and disregard for life and death, has disrupted the rhythm of the entire game, making it impossible for your projection to suppress other people."
"The most obvious thing is that the Butcher can collect sinful fire without any scruples and develop it like crazy. And if he becomes the final winner, it will be a big loss for you."
"So after being eliminated again, you couldn't bear it anymore and entered the scene directly. It's obvious that after many summons, you have mastered this form."
"The effect is also very good, the butcher will be killed directly by you."
"But this is indeed a more risky behavior, because in this state, you can no longer die infinitely."
"Both right!"
William’s voice suddenly became cold.
"Then you might as well think about it, why do I dare to do this even if it is so dangerous?"
Before he finished speaking, a dark red blood line slowly emerged from the neck of the silver-white armor, circling around the neck like a snake.
At the same time, countless sharp spikes condensed on the blood line, stretching crazily in all directions.
In just a few seconds, the blood line turned into a dark red whip of thorns.
And this is not the only one. In other places, there are winding thorns growing out of every joint of the armor, and they quickly crawl all over the body.
Even the silver sword in his hand was instantly wrapped with countless spikes.
The contrast between silver and red is shocking.
"Why do you think I have to stay here with you talking nonsense for so long?"
William's voice came again, already filled with murderous intent.
"I also need some time to digest the gift from the goddess."
