She instinctively covered her mouth in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why had she, in front of all these people, been yelling \"I love you\" like that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who was she even professing love to? It couldn't possibly be anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her looks and status, she always moved through the world untouched, taking what she needed from one admirer after another, then withdrawing without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So how did she end up confessing in the middle of the street?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her throat even felt sore now, clearly from having shouted for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What... what am I doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice rasping, she muttered hesitantly, only then realizing her throat had gone hoarse like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All around her were people roaring, vocally professing their love to that pervert in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she looked up, she couldn't even see any figure in the heavens;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>all she saw were one pink bubble after another, like balloons released into the air, drifting across the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who had already been eliminated showed no sign of dejection. Dressed in qipaos, their expressions were a strange mix of confusion and fanaticism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people around her reached out one after another, firing beams of light haphazardly, hoarse voices tearing as if they were zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Li Rui's pupils had constricted to pinprick size, her mouth agape and trembling uncontrollably, her whole body shaking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though she had been awakened, the eerie sight before her felt like witnessing something indescribable, a chill and tremor that came from the soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her legs faltered;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>she nearly fell flat. Shock was no longer sufficient to describe what she felt—everything that had been in her had been shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible to defeat him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a thunderclap of a voice sounded inside her head, a voice she recognized—the same one that had spoken when Lust had approached her before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry! Don't stand there! Run to a place that offers cover!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That voice instantly lent her strength. Her leaden legs moved again, and she dashed into a nearby shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still had a backer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A god was helping her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, in the sky, Lu Ce's mind was filled with a grinding, gnashing voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't get too cocky! It's not over yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lust force that had been suppressed surged again, frantically trying to wrest control of the spirit-manipulation from Sin, but clearly it was having little effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah~ like a mantis trying to stop a chariot?\" Lust chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lust had never expected in its existence to be described by a human using such a phrase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or is this an attempt to divert attention? Heh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lust: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you think I didn't see it? Pathetic theater, trying to distract me at a time like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what a pity, I'm simply too strong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still, if you want to play tricks to make things more entertaining, then I suppose that shows you have some guile.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lust's words dripped with condescension, even a hint of teasing cruelty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, it was unlucky for Lust to encounter him here. Hearing him speak, it fell into a rare silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Xie Antong stiffened slightly when she heard it—she hadn't expected the other side to notice anything amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes had been fixed on Zhong Li Rui;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the instant she had been awakened, she had sensed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She raised one hand, the two eyeballs of the All-Seeing Eye circling around her, and after a moment's hesitation, they shot out like lightning, chasing after the fleeing Zhong Li Rui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Lu Ce's Lust had confidence now, she wouldn't bother trying to warn him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First see what this so-called backup move actually was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside that dim shop, Zhong Li Rui cowered, trembling all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The chance is here. The offer I told you about before, are you ready?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ready?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don't talk about being ready—she couldn't even keep her balance properly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I was injected with a potion by Blank. If I don't get the antidote within half an hour, I'll die...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the voice in her head, Zhong Li Rui stammered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lust: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, there's no such potion! You were duped and instantly frightened, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no time for picking at details. That Blank clearly didn't want to be controlled, and besides, she had already obtained that card!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only this person before her mattered!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's okay, don't be afraid. I am Lust!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just been savagely humiliated over at Sin's side, it still had to put on airs and assert its authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She took a little potion;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have already cleared it from you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have been watching you, observing your performance. You did very well!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Li Rui: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did... well? How is that good?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now the game has reached its most critical moment. All other players have been bewitched by Sin;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>only you remain clear-headed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I chose you. If you succeed, after today you will ascend directly, becoming the first Ascendant in this world!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words \"the first Ascendant!\" struck the deepest chord in her. The fantasy of a single leap to the top nearly shattered all reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was pitiful how the Apostles organization fared: Xie Antong had used others up, and now Lust wanted to make use of her too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can... can I really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, you deserve it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Sin's earlier influence, Zhong Li Rui's spirit had already been fragile. Now that a \"god\" had whispered at her, she believed it instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then a wave of exquisite bliss washed over her. She suddenly realized her special Ability Card had been activated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I have an Ability Card?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overjoyed, she took it for a divine blessing and couldn't help but read aloud the effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Special ability effect: For a period of time, you will not be affected by any game rules or restrictions!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her speak it, a part of Lust's manifestation couldn't help cheering inwardly;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this was Lust's final contingency, the last means of escape prepared by He. If nothing else worked, this was the exit strategy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What does this mean?\" Zhong Li Rui asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is prepared for him, to force him to drink it, two bottles of poison!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lust's voice even struggled to maintain its authority now, its teeth gnashing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, since the game began it had been suppressed and felt deeply frustrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, its main body was still suffering inside Lust's own host!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what should I do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Attack him directly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Li Rui: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1093,"2026-06-02T09:03:42.539Z",1,"novelbin.me","5a0074a44883691d857b519e7bb9be2feaf1c38f2689d44bc69d3d02c6ea1eb4","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-646","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-644",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
