The Black Knight was not in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh right, the Black Knight should still be under repair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Checking his game interface, he released the now-repaired Black Knight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hulking black mass hadn't even touched the floor before instantly starting to curse:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you sleeping the sleep of the dead?! It's been two whole days before letting me out?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Who's pounding garlic?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive black motorcycle tilted its head, performing an incredibly lifelike \"cocking its ear to listen\" motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one was pounding garlic, but the knocking at the door was getting louder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now it had even stopped!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two days...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce murmured the word softly. The Black Knight beside him, though freshly released, was quite alert and loudly declared:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hold on, stop banging! I'm coming to open it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it spoke, its two massive wheels rolled on the floor, and its entire body quickly reached Lu Ce's door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its heavy armor deformed and reconfigured, actually clamping onto the door handle and pulling the door open directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that after this repair, its transformation and reconfiguration abilities had improved somewhat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also a unique method of evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door opened, and standing there was indeed Xie Antong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey,\" the Black Knight greeted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Antong nodded at it, not standing on ceremony, and directly stepped inside, entering the room and casually closing the door behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought you'd suddenly disappeared again,\" Xie Antong said, looking at Lu Ce who had just sat up from the bed. \"Were you actually asleep?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce's mind now officially regained full clarity. He muttered to himself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I actually slept for two days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two days? You were sleeping the whole time?\" Xie Antong also furrowed her brows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed this was already the second time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Lu Ce's invincible physical prowess proved unbreakable, was the Game now primarily targeting him from a spiritual angle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was he so drowsy after every game ended lately?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're here? What's up? Surely you haven't come to kill me outside the game too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce stood up, speaking to Xie Antong. Fortunately, he hadn't taken his clothes off before sleeping, and the Illusion Cloak had a self-cleaning effect, so it wasn't too awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are some things to discuss with you, and also, to clear up some misunderstandings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Antong's expression didn't change, very naturally walking to the table and picking up a jar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The All-Seeing Eye trapped inside finally took flight, vanishing into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really are... privacy-conscious...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Antong looked at Lu Ce with a half-smile, continuing:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But, aren't you underestimating me a bit?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think my All-Seeing Eye can't even push open a vase lid?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce fell into an awkward silence for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had covered it mainly to ensure he could track the eye's movements. If it really pushed the lid open, he'd notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't expected to sleep for so long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Antong watched his eyes, her expression gradually becoming somewhat playful as she said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise, guess. Did I actually lift the lid and do something these past two days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem!\" Lu Ce coughed unnaturally twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It keeps honest people honest, not villains. Forget it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also, what misunderstandings did you want to clarify?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Antong didn't continue teasing him, naturally crossing her legs in the chair and saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The 'Apostle' organization is pretty much half-defunct now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks to you, and after clashing with you in this last game, 'Divine Punishment' has vaguely become the superior organization to 'Apostles'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now many people believe Divine Punishment is the first organization officially affiliated with the Game, essentially stealing their business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These past two days, we've received countless membership applications from all over the world. I left them all for Chiyo Eine to review.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'Apostles' is now a leaderless mess with no organizational cohesion, completely unable to refute the rumors.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, because Divine Punishment exploited a bug in the Game's Rules, the 'Gods' will likely have to expend considerable effort if they want to directly empower 'Apostles'. I'd say I've succeeded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Xie Antong's words, Lu Ce was momentarily a bit lost. Exploring the underlying mechanics of the Game's Rules wasn't his strong suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, in all this... what misunderstanding do we have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The misunderstanding is about me genuinely wanting to beat you in that previous game,\" Xie Antong said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn't truly intend to be your enemy. I just needed to block Apostles' ecological niche.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And,\" Xie Antong said, turning her head slightly away, \"you still ended up winning anyway, in a game that didn't require such overt force.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lu Ce didn't think much of it, waving his hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's no need to clarify that. I think such misunderstandings are irrelevant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the Game, you can make any choice you want. It's competition by nature, there's no betrayal involved.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\" Xie Antong looked at him, narrowing her eyes slightly. \"Why didn't you say that when Lust was Overloaded during the game?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce: ?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Xie Antong directly bring up this topic he'd rather not face, he was instantly struck with an awkwardness that made responding difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was something he had actively forced upon...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Overload of Lust had too great an impact on his emotions. He truly couldn't control himself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What could he even say in response? It was indeed his fault. Her coming to \"demand an explanation\" was perfectly normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? So that's how it is. I get it,\" the Black Knight interjected with great wisdom from the side. \"Do you need me to leave?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You may. If it's convenient, you could also close the curtains,\" Xie Antong said, her eyes not leaving Lu Ce, smiling as she casually teased.\u003C\u002Fp>",1031,"2026-06-02T09:03:44.044Z",1,"novelbin.me","d802ff892f13ed03d22e641d17400462fba94567b55631565a9cf896ffd07416","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-661","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-565",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
