Its eyes seemed locked only on the First Player, the one who’d always been the dazzling “Sin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the rest were supposed to get some rewards too, some even started pushing and shoving on the Floating Bridge to fight for rankings—but the Slime didn’t give a d*mn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who cares about you lot?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Slime even played the bootlicker and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【What would you like to say? Should I prepare you a microphone?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just make the lights brighter. And I want purple lights.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Sure thing! Adjusting that now.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Slime followed step by step. Under everyone’s gaze, Lu Ce once again walked to the center in front of the Roulette Wheel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, Game Time was nearly up. “Sin” had already become the First Player.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And not just first—a massive gap between him and second, and an even bigger one between second and the rest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone wanted to see what the hell this guy was planning next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told you, none of you belong here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he looked up again, turning to the players in the Game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eyes on me. Or rather, what you’ve been playing with isn’t even fun. Time to watch something truly interesting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe... you’ll even get to satisfy those dark little thoughts of yours, and hope I lose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying that, Lu Ce spread his hands, the expression on the Lust Mask full of smug superiority. U_U\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, his gaze locked onto someone in the center of the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well well, you’ve got quite a few Stars too. Wanna come play?” he said, patting the Roulette Wheel in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the person he was looking at was Xie Antong. At this point, she had fifteen Stars!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the high number, she too had a glowing colorful Star on her chest, with a “15” beside it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being singled out in the crowd, Xie Antong trembled all over. It felt like all eyes instantly snapped to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not a good feeling. And she knew why “Sin” suddenly picked her out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe he’d recognized her—but so what? No way the Strongest Player would care about a former Teammate like her, especially when their last round together didn’t end pleasantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being targeted by him probably wasn’t a good thing. For a moment, she felt like she was being eyed by a venomous snake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly lowered her head, took a few steps back, and casually said, “No thanks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, using the All-Seeing Eye to keep watching him, she ran to a hidden corner and played dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can’t see me, can’t see me.......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce didn’t say anything else. He tried to lift his arm—only to find his left hand couldn’t really move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earlier piercings from the Torture Devices had left some damage in the muscle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tch, annoying.” Switching hands, Lu Ce took the colorful Star off his chest and placed it on the Roulette Wheel’s single red groove in the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m betting this. Let’s go. Don’t waste time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Uh...】 The Slime hesitated beside him. 【How many are you betting?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All of them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【How many?!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you deaf?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Slime locked eyes with Lu Ce, and suddenly started trembling all over—like it was totally high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the spotlight above Lu Ce flared up with dazzling brilliance, and the Slime shouted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Alright! No more bets! The highest-Star player of this round, “Sin,” has chosen to place all 29 of his Stars into the one and only red groove on the central Roulette Wheel!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Everyone! Watch closely!!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its voice cracked from excitement. And really, it didn’t even need to announce it—everyone was already watching!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red groove—just one out of 180!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A five-times multiplier—the highest in the entire round.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the chance of hitting it was insanely low!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could understand. Their eyes were full of disbelief as they looked over, wondering why he’d do something like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t he already in first place?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One out of 180 odds—what was he thinking??\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Xie Antong, who was hiding near the Slot Machine, looked over in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Did the Mask take over his mind?......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why? With so little Game Time left, why take such a meaningless risk? That didn’t match the way he’d been acting before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d always been curious—how would “Sin,” who didn’t care about winning or losing, flip things around after being isolated?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he already flipped it... he’s going again??\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Start!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Slime’s voice trembled, so excited it couldn’t speak properly. Without any delay, the Game began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Roulette Wheel started to spin. The small ball began to bounce. The sharp clicking sounds echoed straight into everyone’s hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone stopped what they were doing. All eyes locked onto the spotlight below, watching the purple-masked man smiling beneath it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One man’s gamble... held the hearts of everyone present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ball’s speed slowly began to drop—and it really was heading toward the red groove. Everyone held their breath, afraid to even blink and miss the result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even someone like Xie Antong, with the All-Seeing Eye and cold logic, felt her heart skip a beat—her pupils shrinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the final few bounces landed, time seemed to freeze. The ball slowed... and finally came to a stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Red!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment—that final click—it sounded like the world cracked apart. The entire space seemed to fall silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Lu Ce’s chest, a glowing colorful Star appeared, and beside it: “145”!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the Slime was about to scream its lungs out and break the silence, Lu Ce spoke first, cutting off its words and breaking the stillness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the colorful Star from his chest again, and placed it right back on the red groove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was calm, his tone so steady it made you feel like his heart rate never went above seventy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One more.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1054,"2026-06-02T09:03:27.233Z",1,"novelbin.me","51bdb135f0bed329b1eefcaeb9cc97640eaaa62baeaf17c41ac8f9f6e8708536","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-135","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-133",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
