Chapter 13: Seductively Blooming Flower! Game Over, Rewards Settled!
"Deception? What kind of talent is that?" Yun Peipei's body trembled uncontrollably.
Before it was an act, this time it's real.
"As long as at least half the players on the field believe my lie, the lie becomes reality." Su Yang stared at the revolver on the table. "I can still fire five shots."
The familiar voice rang out again.
Su Yang directly pointed the gun at his Brain and pulled the trigger five times in succession.
"Ka ka ka ka ka!"
Then he split open the cylinder and poured out a Bullet.
"Look." Su Yang raised his Brow, his face full of Smile.
Seeing this, Yun Peipei suddenly recalled that he had just spoken words that seemed familiar.
Then the cylinder inside the gun underwent a Transform.
"So it wasn't the Magic talent that altered the Bullet's position…" Yun Peipei gave a wry Laugh, her face pale as paper.
Along with sadness, she was deeply shocked by the horror of this talent.
What is the concept of Words Follow Law?
As long as he wishes, he can even toy with the rules.
"So the awkwardness you just displayed was also an illusion?" Yun Peipei said self‑deprecatingly, having thought Su Yang was truly that stupid.
"Of course, I wanted to experience your talent firsthand, and see how far you can Control, so I turned the plan into a counter‑plan." Su Yang nodded.
After all, the talent he previously obtained was 'Recognize Thief as Father', whose function is to Control all actions of the players.
Therefore, he was curious whether Yun Peipei's Control could reach the same level.
After probing, he was greatly disappointed.
Yun Peipei's talent can only manipulate both hands, and nothing more.
However, she does not require the Prerequisite Condition of someone shouting "Dad".
All it takes is to fix one's Sight on a player, and it can be activated.
With one fewer difficult Prerequisite Condition, a weaker ability becomes explainable.
"Only the two of us remain on the field; I clearly don't believe the lie you said, so why does it become reality?" Yun Peipei was puzzled.
"Is this your dying wish?" Su Yang asked softly.
Yun Peipei said nothing, slowly raised the gun, and shed silent Tears.
"It seems you've forgotten me; I'm also human," Su Yang reminded.
"So that's it…" A flash of astonishment passed through Yun Peipei's eyes, then she understood.
With only two people left, as long as Su Yang lies while firmly believing it, the ability can be activated without limit.
No matter what attitude the other player holds, the outcome cannot be changed.
"No wonder you were silent at first; it wasn't just about gathering Intelligence, but also because you couldn't activate the talent," Yun Peipei realized, continuing to ask:
"The Magic talent you mentioned was also fabricated, right?"
"Of course, I gathered Intelligence to pinpoint Zhao San's talent; it wasn't baseless."
"Such deep scheming, you are the wolf." Yun Peipei suddenly let go, the resentment in her heart fading greatly.
Su Yang's intelligence was the greatest she had ever seen; even without Deception, she couldn't be sure of winning.
Add the Deception Talent, and he stands on an invincible footing.
"I have another request, I earnestly ask you to agree," Yun Peipei said.
"Please speak."
"Live on, for me, and also for us, to find the truth." Yun Peipei didn't specify the so‑called truth.
But Su Yang knew what she meant.
"Alright."
"I actually truly love performing, and I want to genuinely play the heroine once," Yun Peipei closed her eyes, tears streaming out.
"Do you think my acting… qualifies me to be the heroine?"
Su Yang thought for a moment, then nodded: "The finest I've ever seen."
"Thank you…" Yun Peipei smiled contentedly, lowered her head, already prepared to accept death.
Su Yang sighed inwardly, then said aloud: "Bullet loaded."
"Bang!"
Four corpses lay on the table, blood staining the already mottled tabletop a deep crimson.
"Finally… it's over." Su Yang felt no joy in his heart, nor any sense of Clearance achievement.
The five strangers, who had never met before, appeared here to complete the Death Game.
Perhaps they each have stories unknown to us.
Perhaps they bear burdens and responsibilities unimaginable to ordinary people.
Or perhaps each of them has a reason that compels them to stay alive.
Yet because of a game, their futures were sacrificed.
"The four, before dying, all thought that if they could live once more, they'd give their all." Su Yang doesn't smoke, but at this moment he very much wanted to taste a puff.
Is there, as others say, a way to untie a thousand sorrows.

……
Familiar incandescent light spilled, illuminating the floor that looked like a shroud over a corpse.
Su Yang woke from the iron-frame bed, opened his eyes and saw the upper bunk's wooden board.
He hurriedly climbed down and stood before the cell, looking toward the east side of the first floor.
"One, two, three, four… eight." He found the eighth cell and stared at it.
From his viewpoint, he could take in the entire scene inside the cell.
"Sure enough, nothing appeared," Su Yang murmured.
He clearly remembered that Liu Ming was number 108.
For a brief moment he thought this was all a dream.
The dream ended, and it was time to go home.
But reality was cruel; once a person dies, they never appear in the cell again.
Su Yang scanned the surroundings and found many cells empty.
On the second floor's 100 cells, wherever his gaze fell, there were 30 cells that were empty.
"Elimination rate this high?" Su Yang frowned.
At that moment, a broadcast rang in his mind again.
【First Game Ended, Congratulations Survivors】
【Rewards Distributed, Please Check Your Own Cell】
【Remaining Players:】
【Second Game Will Begin in 3 Days】
【Points Rankings Open】
As the voice finished, four light screens suddenly appeared in the middle of each floor, corresponding to the east, south, west, and north directions.
st Prison Overall Rankings
1st: Qin Weiyang, Points — 200
2nd: Luo Shuangshuang, Points — 200
3rd: Li An, Points — 200
4th: Jiang Ruchao, Points — 200
……
2756th: Su Yang, Points — 160
……
7025th: Xu Guang, Points — 100
Surviving Players: 7025, Deceased: 2975.
After 12 days the settlement occurs; the top 100 in the rankings may leave the prison.
"Top hundred?" Su Yang's pupils narrowed slightly.
He boasted that his performance in the game was quite good, unlocking many achievements, yet his rank was over two thousand!
"I'm only forty points behind the first place; the clearance points are the same, probably they unlocked more achievements," Su Yang fell into thought.
Among players with 160 points, some ranked as low as 1556th.
He guessed it might relate to the length of clearance time.
"Leaving the prison means returning to the real world?" a flash of brilliance crossed Su Yang's eyes.
