Chapter 320

~7 min read 1,366 words

Deception took effect!

The spotlight flickered and disappeared, then shot out light again.

On the surface, there was no change, but the actual execution target had already changed.

Su Yang watched this scene, his mouth unable to help but curl up slightly.

"The evolved talent is indeed useful."

Among the nine hundred or so people on the field, he only needed to make more than three hundred believe the 'lie' for it to take effect.

Compared to before, it was much easier.

And he even had a kind of metric premonition in his heart, able to clearly capture the 'trust' progress.

The current number of trusting people was approximately — three hundred and sixty.

As Liu Yong gradually approached the spotlight, the number continued to increase.

It was enough to see how much fantasy hope could bring to people.

"Can it succeed?" Lin Yang had concerns.

"Remove the 'can', of course it will succeed," Su Yang hugged his shoulder and leaned against the table, waiting for the result.

"But why do I feel it's a bit risky, if the one who dies isn't him, we'll be in trouble..." Lin Yang frowned slightly.

Now that Qin Weiyang and the others were being hunted by Minotaurs, the two of them jumping out to expose the conspiracy also made them targets.

If Liu Yong didn't die, the execution would soon rotate to the two of them.

Like this kind of person who seeks revenge for the slightest grievance, if he caught the opportunity for revenge, the outcome could be imagined.

"Put your heart in your stomach, and watch carefully," Su Yang patted his shoulder.

Lin Yang took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

At this moment, Liu Yong was driven to the spotlight by dozens of people; he looked at the light close at hand, his heart calm.

"Roll over there!" The two-meter-tall strong man pointed in a deep voice.

A red light flashed in Liu Yong's sinister eyes, and he snorted coldly: "Pointless struggle, truly laughable."

"So much nonsense!" The strong man kicked him in the butt, causing him to stumble and nearly fall to his knees.

Liu Yong gritted his teeth and got up, the anger in his chest rushing straight to his crown.

He had already memorized these masks by heart.

Once the one outside was hunted to death by the Minotaurs and the next round of execution started, he would definitely take it out on them!

"No one has been born who dares to threaten me, and you bunch of idiots are worthy of living?" Liu Yong muttered to himself, patted the dust off his pants, and stepped forward.

"Since you want to see, then I'll satisfy you."

"Ugly words up front, if I don't die, then it's you who will die."

Saying this, Liu Yong stood half a meter in front of the spotlight, his mind already starting to imagine the scene of them begging for mercy.

However, as he took a step, an ominous premonition strangely arose in his heart.

His eyelids jumped violently!

"Hmm?"

Liu Yong subconsciously looked back, only to see that the Minotaurs who had all been sent out had now returned!

They weren't carrying any corpses, and their hands hadn't even touched a drop of blood.

"What's the situation? Where are the people being executed?" Liu Yong's pupils shrank slightly.

Seeing him lingering, Su Yang urged: "What are you dawdling for, get in!"

Once these words were spoken, everyone echoed: "Aren't you very confident? Get in and prove it to us!"

"I've already given you a chance, if you deliberately delay time, I'll break your legs! And send you in myself."

"Hurry up!"

A loud shout made Liu Yong tremble violently.

Feeling the predatory gazes around him, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

"No, this is an execution I dominate, no one understands the operating rules better than me!" Liu Yong forcibly suppressed his unease.

Once the execution target is determined, no matter if you run to the ends of the earth, you will be killed by the Minotaurs.

Like a program with the code finalized.

Until death!

But now, the development of the situation was vastly different from what he imagined.

Why didn't the Minotaurs bring back the corpse?

With doubts, Liu Yong couldn't help but feel some hesitation in his heart.

Clearly, when the situation is uncontrollable, confidence will also be worn away.

"Could it be that she jumped into the Heaven Pit?" Liu Yong guessed secretly.

He then raised his head to look at the area illuminated by the spotlight, gritted his teeth, and stepped in.

The white light beam enveloped his whole body, and a strange feeling arose spontaneously.

Liu Yong closed his eyes tightly, his heart beating like a drum, thumping loudly.

"I didn't die?"

Looking down at his unharmed body, the stone hanging in his heart slowly landed.

Just as he had imagined, the situation was still under his control.

Liu Yong slowly raised his head and sneered: "See that? I told you long ago, this method is useless against me."

"Is that so?"

Su Yang snapped his fingers slowly, only to see a laser shoot out, piercing through his skull suddenly.

"Plop!"

His body fell to the ground in response, and blue smoke rose slowly.

Until his death, Liu Yong always kept a smile on his face.

"Really dead?" Everyone was shocked.

A portion of people were skeptical about this, after all, the rules were irreversible.

But who would have thought that Liu Yong would frankly admit he was the mastermind, yet die in his own conspiracy?

This was somewhat absurd and laughable.

Until Liu Yong's life came to an end, the spotlight dissipated completely.

The sense of restraint that had always lingered in people's hearts dissipated entirely.

Seeing this, everyone immediately realized — the execution was over!

"We... are saved?"

"Seems so, Liu Yong is dead, and the execution can no longer cycle and continue."

"Hahaha!"

Excited cheers resounded through the ballroom, and the emotions that everyone had suppressed for a long time erupted at this moment!

They saw people raising glasses to celebrate, drinking wildly, and dancing magical dance steps.

One player even walked directly onto the stage and changed to DJ music, and the atmosphere changed drastically.

Looking at the people dancing like demons, Su Yang laughed dumbly.

"The feeling of saving the world is really not bad," Lin Yang sighed.

"You believe in light too?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow.

At this time, a man led by the two-meter-tall strong man walked over with dozens of people.

They held wine glasses and said gratefully: "Thanks brother for finding the real culprit, if it weren't for you, we would all have had to account for ourselves here today."

Saying this, he drank it in one gulp.

The players behind him then followed suit.

Seeing this scene, Su Yang picked up a glass of juice and said: "You're too kind, I did this for myself too."

"Regardless, Yang owes you one, if there's anything you need help with in the future, just speak up!" The strong man patted his chest and said.

"Let's not talk about this, let's have a good time tonight," Su Yang said with a smile.

"Okay, let's not stop until we're drunk!"

Hearty laughter echoed all around, and Su Yang was seen surrounded by a group of people, like stars surrounding the moon, hugging him and chatting.

Lin Yang, as a helper, naturally wasn't left out in the cold.

The woman who had chatted him up earlier found him, and her tone of voice softened a bit.

Every word was full of hints.

But Lin Yang politely declined.

At this moment, he no longer had that kind of thought.

Through this incident, he realized that traps and conspiracies were everywhere.

Maybe there was a bad person in the crowd trying every possible way to stab you.

A few minutes later, Bai Wanrou and the others 'shifted' back.

They looked at the bustling scene and once thought they had come to the wrong place.

"... So lively?" Qin Weiyang saw that familiar figure surrounded by several girls as soon as she returned, her expression strange.
