The speed was so fast that the eyes couldn't take it all in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, the Bullet was bounced away by the Liar-Slayer's Sanctuary just as it was about to hit Tong Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems she is a player. Speak, what is the stake?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran smiled: \"The loser must answer the winner one question, but this question cannot involve the content of the Lie-Judgment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll go first. I bet she definitely had a lie tricked out of her just now.\" Chen Ran spoke first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diwu Zeyi: \"You are still as Shameless as ever. Then I will bet... she didn't have a lie tricked out of her just now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately following, under Tong Fei's horrified gaze, Chen Ran drew a pure white Pistol and aimed it at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait!\" Tong Fei's mind was in total chaos as she hurriedly called a stop to Chen Ran, who was about to Judge her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran thought for a bit, lowered his arm, and gestured for her to continue speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren't you already dead?\" Tong Fei asked the crucial question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just now, the Diwu Zeyi who fired at me wasn't the player.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, he looked resentfully at the innocent-faced Diwu Zeyi: \"No wonder you would pilfer my Lighter. So you had a similar style one in your pocket.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh, the 18th Level Commercial District sells this kind of Lighter, and the styles are all about the same. At the very beginning, I thought you were a Newbie and probably didn't know this point, wanting to pit you once. But gradually, I found that you are very cautious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, as cautious as Chen Ran, when someone pilfered his important Lighter, how could he not pay attention to the Lighter handed over by the other party?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, you mean to say, the Lighter Diwu Zeyi handed to you just now was the one he pilfered from you?\" Tong Fei caught the keyword of the two's conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What else? Did you think I would be stupid enough to fall for that kind of bait-and-switch trick?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no.\" Tong Fei felt like she was going to grow a brain: \"Diwu Zeyi clearly spoke the Judgment Command just now. How could an NPC know the Judgment Command?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the very beginning, you occupied Diwu Zeyi's body, right? Guess who killed NPC Diwu Zeyi? And guess what the person who killed NPC Diwu Zeyi said before firing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Fei was as if enveloped by a massive terror, and said tremblingly: \"It was you! Moreover, when you killed NPC Diwu Zeyi, you also spoke the Judgment Command [You lied]!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Correct answer!\" Chen Ran couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: \"For a normal person, in ordinary communication, it's very hard not to lie.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You lied, Liar-Slayer A Single Leaf as a Boat, Liar-Slayer Eternal Kingdom. In other words, NPC Diwu Zeyi could deduce our Judgment Commands and mechanism.\" Tong Fei muttered to herself. She found that she seemed to...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have been pitted miserably by Chen Ran!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I still don't understand, what exactly happened just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran patiently explained: \"You have to think from the NPC's perspective.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just now, NPC Chen Ran controlled the situation. If he wanted to break the situation, the only method was to make us so-called monsters engage in Infighting among ourselves. How to engage in Infighting was the key.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At that time, Diwu Zeyi and you were both players, while he and Feng Xiao were NPCs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This ratio was very ingenious. No matter which side had one more, the other side would be at a disadvantage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, at that time, the identities of the four could mutually be deduced out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what he had to do was carry out a personnel exchange without changing the ratio. So he could only kill player Diwu Zeyi, and he himself walked to the middle of the Secret Room to be killed by the python.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This way, Diwu Zeyi and Feng Xiao were NPCs, while me and you were players.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you still remember what I asked you just now while holding a Gun?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Fei was startled. She remembered that she was asked just now by the one she thought was an NPC, but was actually player Chen Ran holding a Gun...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>['Speak. What kind of existence are you?']\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing this question, her train of thought was to let the NPC fight with Chen Ran and Diwu Zeyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, she without hesitation spoke out about [monsters] being forbidden to lie and Lie-Judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then went to the middle of the Secret Room to seek death, but was pulled back into the plot again by Chen Ran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her words, falling into the ears of the one she thought was the player but was actually NPC Diwu Zeyi...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>NPC Diwu Zeyi, connecting to the first time he was killed by Feng Xiao, who was occupied by Chen Ran, and the spoken command [You lied], deduced the entire process of Lie-Judgment and Judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was to analyze from the perspective of NPC Diwu Zeyi, what should he do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew the entire process of Lie-Judgment and Judgment. But due to having his body occupied by Tong Fei and player Diwu Zeyi for a long time, he didn't know anything that happened in between.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His memory remained at the time when Feng Xiao shot and killed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, what he had to do was to kill all of these [monsters].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he lit a Cigarette. It was probably also at this time that he discovered he had two Lighters of similar styles in his pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if there were no Lighters, as long as Chen Ran opened his mouth, he would definitely [Judge] Chen Ran. This way he could make Tong Fei mistakenly think he was a player.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To trick out Tong Fei's lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would he choose Tong Fei?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer is very simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Player Chen Ran disguised himself as NPC Chen Ran. Tong Fei had already said she was a [monster].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, the only thing NPC Diwu Zeyi could be certain of was: Tong Fei is a monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next it was simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran deliberately gave him an out, unable to strike his Lighter and borrowing a light from him, and he Judged Chen Ran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Making Tong Fei think he was a player, logically tricking out Tong Fei's lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in fact, Tong Fei indeed said just now: [Hehe. Exactly because we two are both players, and I cannot outwit you, I have to ask the NPC for help. For me and the NPC it's a win-win situation.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Fei lied!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, was the key. Since NPC Diwu Zeyi had tricked out a lie, but he wasn't a true player, he couldn't Judge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he chose to utilize this lie to trick out more lies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, four shots rang out in the Secret Room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first shot: NPC Chen Ran killed player Tong Fei, kicking her out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was NPC Chen Ran and Tong Fei joining hands, wanting to create a favorable situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second shot: NPC Diwu Zeyi killed NPC Chen Ran, pulling player Chen Ran back, wanting to trick out player Chen Ran's lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, player Chen Ran was an old fox.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third shot: Player Chen Ran killed NPC Diwu Zeyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fourth shot: Player Chen Ran killed NPC Tong Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did the current situation come to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There might be a question here: Why didn't player Chen Ran utilize this point to trick out Diwu Zeyi's lie? But instead had to bet with him when pulling Diwu Zeyi back?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, from the first sentence when player Diwu Zeyi was pulled back, one could see that this kind of trick couldn't trick out his lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was better to lower it a notch and bet with Diwu Zeyi to ask the question he wanted to know. This was maximizing the benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Tong Fei only deduced the first half. The latter half was the game between Chen Ran and the NPC and player Diwu Zeyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm very messy right now.\" Tong Fei clutched her forehead. She truly couldn't believe, how could someone calculate the human heart to this extent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran saw what she was thinking and proactively explained: \"Didn't you discover that these NPCs each have our personalities from when we were alive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand myself. Although I don't understand Diwu Zeyi too well, a figure like him was presumably also a deduction expert when he was alive. As long as I control these two NPCs well, then the whole layout becomes extremely simple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But how were you certain that I definitely had a lie tricked out by NPC Diwu Zeyi just now?\" Tong Fei asked unwillingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If a lie hadn't been tricked out, would NPC Chen Ran kill you? Would NPC Diwu Zeyi kill NPC Chen Ran?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's like building a house. If it doesn't even have a basic framework, is it still a house?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Tong Fei seemed to have been drained of all the strength in her body, her whole person instantly collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One last question, what Star Player exactly are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the Instance where I am, on that timeline, I am a One-Star Player.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One... Star?\" Tong Fei was first startled, and then let out an ear-piercing scream: \"One-Star, ah ah ah ah! Hahaha! You fucking tell me you are a One-Star?! Then what does a Two-Star Player like me count as? Count as what!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran lit a Cigarette and said faintly: \"I've met quite a few geniuses in the Instance, but some geniuses defeated by me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Call me a genius!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diwu Zeyi cast a look of disdain at him: Damn it, let him show off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have any last words?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1746,"2026-06-02T12:08:03.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","5e2dbe211f5cdbedcc0fc34888412b8d370cfc554d9453ae3d021c03884d36aa","the-eighteen-levels-of-hell-lying-is-forbidden-h-chapter-226","the-eighteen-levels-of-hell-lying-is-forbidden-h-chapter-224",621,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-eighteen-levels-of-hell-lying-is-forbidden-h-cover.jpg"]
