It merely, for a short time, caused the other party to lose face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn't inflict any real harm; on the contrary, it was an act that had enraged the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Although he did a pretty good job... this might not actually be a good thing.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[This kind of tactic, exploiting His psychology and deceiving Him momentarily, is not a true winning strategy. On the contrary, he has now trapped himself.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pleasure shook his head and turned to look at Xie Antong beside him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[With this level of provocation, that fellow \"Knowledge\" should already be in over his head.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[It seems He has already made up His mind to absolutely crush him. This isn't necessarily good news~.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He violently scattered the curtain of sand and stone filling the sky behind him, glaring furiously at the person before him, at his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those clean hands had now completely become a mockery directed at Him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared fixedly at those hands, having already considered the likely possibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no chance He had miscounted. He had seen every single grain of sand that flowed from the other's hand with exceptional clarity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant there could only be one grain of sand not thrown out, hidden by the other using some unknown method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had sensed it very clearly; during that period just now, the spatial fluctuations were extremely stable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah~ what kind of expression is that on your face?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he couldn't see what expression Knowledge had at all, it didn't stop Lu Ce from opening his mouth to mock at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're not going to say again that this time doesn't count either, that I cheated again, are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you say I cheated, you need to bring out some evidence. Speaking of which, where's the Arbitrator? Isn't my brother planning to come out and uphold justice for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Knowledge had descended in His true form this time and hadn't staked much in the wager initially, He couldn't directly attack \"Sin\" with force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, under His strong demand, the Arbitrator hadn't kept an avatar stationed here continuously either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aura around Knowledge slowly calmed down now, but it was like an exceptionally turbulent storm hidden beneath a placid water surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[No, this round was also your victory. No matter what petty trick you used, winning is winning.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I have no intention of denying it.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? That's really surprising. You're not about to follow up with a 'but,' are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce immediately interjected, and his prediction was also perfectly on point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[B...but, this level of petty cleverness does not mean you are qualified to stand before me...]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although preempted, Knowledge didn't feel any \"embarrassment\" about it. Without any change in emotion, He repeated it once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk tsk, what big talk. You've already lost twice in a row, and you're still going on about qualifications.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce also sneered, finally standing up from the beach and looking at Knowledge before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, what do you plan to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about we add another match, see when you'll be truly convinced? However, your wager needs to be even bigger this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Good!] This time, \"Knowledge's\" response was without the slightest hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However.\" Lu Ce, with half his mask already transformed into blue, tilted his chin up slightly with a scrutinizing air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since you keep going on about qualifications, then let me also see if you are qualified.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's see if you are qualified to stand before me. After all, compared to the other gods I've met before, you seem rather weak~.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowledge: !\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Lu Ce's words fell, both Pleasure and the Arbitrator watching from another space were shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could have imagined that at such a moment, \"Sin\" would still keep escalating verbally, completely forcing Knowledge toward a fight to the death with him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the spectators watching his game, waiting for the outcome of this human-versus-god battle, were collectively stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[: Wait, this isn't right, is it? The god's strength feels different from what I imagined?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[: Didn't they say the Game really wants to kill \"Sin\"? Just this? Still not taking action!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[: Judging by this, I think \"Sin\" alone is enough to make the Game's full-scale descent impossible.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce couldn't hear what people were saying, and Knowledge didn't know either, but He was absolutely clear about the level of provocation He had received.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without giving any response, He merely waved His hand. A strange sensation circled around Him, and He once again raised the stakes of this game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made the Arbitrator in the void space somewhat unable to believe it. He had even previously considered the possibility that \"Sin\" might survive Knowledge's game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this action of forcing a god to repeatedly increase the wager was something He found somewhat difficult to comprehend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe...\" Lu Ce smiled with satisfaction. \"Then, let's continue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Oh, escalating it this thoroughly, really didn't expect that.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pleasure\" couldn't help but exclaim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Alright, now this 'Knowledge' has truly got him cornered. What's left is just continuously raising the stakes until death. You surely don't think he can actually defeat a god, do you?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Isn't it time to make a move?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, contrary to His expectations, after hearing His words, Xie Antong showed no reaction. She even actively shifted her gaze away from the screen before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—She stopped watching any further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowledge has got Lu Ce cornered?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorry, but who's actually got who cornered is really not certain yet!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had already discerned that this method of continuously escalating and making Knowledge increase the wager was likely deliberately orchestrated by \"Greed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such opportunities weren't common. If he could obtain enough power from a god, Lu Ce in his Greed state would definitely not let it pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—He didn't want certainty; he wanted to gamble with his life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she herself now had another mission...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Oh? What do you mean?] Even \"Pleasure\" was somewhat taken aback. [Really not caring if he lives or dies?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He won't die for a while. Let him enjoy the game a bit longer.\" Xie Antong said lightly. \"Right now, I think we need to see how the other players are doing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The gameplay we discussed earlier, you were serious about it, right? You keep your word.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1088,"2026-06-02T09:03:44.669Z",1,"novelbin.me","7c00f15362382baff51c406f37de183cf83750a3da245810477bf5e98f00f46e","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-736","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-734",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
