Chapter 777: Is it fear of me, or fear of approaching [Truth]?

Is it fear of me, or fear of approaching 【Truth】?

On the other side.

After most of the cannon fodder died under the tentacles, the remaining players in the large testing ground began to gather toward a certain direction one after another.

The players who could hold on until now in this area were no longer mediocre. Soon, they discovered through observing the direction of the tentacle cluster's surge that there was actually a safe point in this testing ground.

And this meant that some players had already formed effective cohesion in the crisis and began to resist risks together. Thus, the scattered players began to rush toward that direction desperately, hoping to find a place to breathe before they were exhausted.

Under the guidance of this situation, Mo Li's team became larger and larger, and the number of players had reached a magnitude sufficient to defend the position with very low consumption.

Of course, the main force of defense was still Big Cat. She alone held up 90% of the offensive, and even fought back and forth with the overwhelming tentacles. The players in the position played more of an auxiliary role in quickly "debriding" her, but with more and more singers, the unison blessings of high songs gradually could offset the murmurs of the evil entity.

But wanting to achieve this kind of balance wasn't something that could be done just by piling up numbers. At least this team couldn't do without a commander who was clear-minded, sharp-headed, keen-judging, and well-organized.

And this commander was still Mo Li.

In fact, whether it was Mo Li or Chen Shu, as players walking at the very forefront of a certain path of faith, even without Big Jiang's care, it was absolutely impossible for them to be directly killed here by 0221. Either they would resurrect elsewhere, or they would survive on the battlefield; they had too many methods, and protecting themselves was more than enough. It was simply that they couldn't give the other side a shock like Big Jiang could.

But why were they trapped in a predicament of being unable to escape and gradually getting injured at the beginning?

Very simple, because their choices were different!

Don't forget, the divinity admission tickets issued by 0221 were not like the ones Wei Mu imitated that would go to distribute to specific players. He used slices as "tentacles" to cast a wide net, and the "fish and shrimp" "caught" back were mostly ordinary players.

Although the 【Faith Game】 had progressed to now, the players who had been tempered for a long time were no longer ordinary, but there was still an undeniable fact and law in the real world, which was: in this game, those with outstanding talent were still the minority.

And this meant that most of these "fish and shrimp" couldn't protect themselves in this experiment.

So the answer was here. Although these two God-Chosen could ignore these experimental materials and only protect themselves, they didn't do so, but brought all players willing to cooperate to kill their way out.

Mo Li, as a 【Order】 believer, followed the old order and treated people equally, willing to respect everyone and lead them to seek a glimmer of life. This was in line with the consistent style of 【Order】 believers and had no problem. But Chen Shu's choice... was too surprising.

Even Mo Li didn't expect Chen Shu to be so cooperative, which was enough to prove that his joining the Fire Spreaders was not an absolute accident.

Just like what the Blind Man said, Qin Xin would never misread a person. The vision of this founder of the Fire Spreaders was beyond doubt.

Thus, with Big Cat slaughtering in the front and Chen Shu pressing the formation in the back, Mo Li, the player known as the First Assistant, finally displayed his super-excellent strength as the first assistant.

His judgment of the situation was too sharp and too unique. This sharpness and uniqueness were different from the judgment of self-situation by peak players on the battlefield, but strong in global coordination. He could always accurately judge where every point of power should be used, how every bit of consumption should be wiped out, how much power should be mobilized to hit the enemy's pain points, and how much defense should be contracted to avoid internal casualties.

At this moment, he, who was commanding in the center, was like a central supercomputer running at overclocking speed under the information feedback of countless hunters and assassins as eyes. He could distribute every instruction in detail to everyone's head, making this team, which was like scattered sand and didn't know each other, gather as one and act as one, operating efficiently like a precise electronic instrument.

At this moment, he seemed to be the most radiant "Order" in this testing ground, letting everyone act in order.

But as they fought, Chen Shu, who was pressing the formation as the eye of the position, frowned. Feeling the increasingly irritable atmosphere in this team and the eagerness of many people who wanted to turn defense into attack, he touched his chin and said:

"Shoufu, your aura is not right.

Why do I feel that this axe didn't hit your neck, but was held in your hand instead?

Your previous fighting style wasn't this aggressive. I'm not saying your command is wrong, but... do you want to see Big Bear's position? She hasn't returned for a while.

Are you trying to lead us to 0221's lair?"

Hearing this, the corners of the surrounding players' mouths twitched, and they turned their heads one after another without speaking. Mo Li's eyelids jumped wildly, a flash of red light flashed in his eyes, and his pupil color settled into gold again.

His slightly irritable aura gradually stabilized. After surveying the situation in all directions, he frowned and said in a deep voice:

"It is indeed not quite right. The 【Birth】 sound of the other party has weakened. Could it be that some accident we don't know about has happened somewhere?"

Accident?

Tao Yi, who was standing beside Mo Li, raised her head suddenly, looking toward the distance wantonly with a shrewd face.

If an accident could happen in this testing ground, it would probably be... caused by him.

I have to say, the little fox's sixth sense was very accurate.

The weakening of the Grotesque Mother Tree's offensive was indeed related to Cheng Shi, but it wasn't because he held back this evil entity from the other side, but because he pushed the progress of this experiment without knowing it, letting this 【Truth】 game enter the next stage.

Time goes back a little. When players from all directions were frantically gathering toward Mo Li's team, Wang Mou took Cheng Shi to the control center of this experiment.

What Wei Mu said was correct; this was exactly where the experimental materials were transmitted in.

When the two just arrived in the vicinity, the building that looked tightly wrapped by tentacles suddenly opened a passage on the outer wall of the building, a path that looked like it led to the control center.

After seeing this scene, Cheng Shi turned around and left without saying a word.

His thought was very simple. Since the host of this experiment had guessed that he would come here, and even started to open the door to welcome him, then if there were no ghosts inside, even ghosts wouldn't believe it.

As a member of the steady faction, Cheng Shi certainly couldn't just jump in foolishly. So at the last moment, he chose to give up and pulled Wang Mou to rush outward quickly.

Unfortunately, since his whereabouts had been discovered, whether to leave or not was no longer a matter the two of them could choose.

I saw countless tentacles hanging down from the sky and standing up from the ground simultaneously, intertwining and crossing to form a cage, trapping the two of them tightly inside.

Originally, with this kind of means, Cheng Shi could break free with a snap of his fingers. But what he didn't expect was that the other party didn't prepare to force them at all, but used this cage to fight for a chance to speak for himself.

Of course, the one speaking wasn't any "person", but those tentacles.

The tentacles that turned into the walls of the cage entangled and rubbed, making a creepy sound that made people's hearts itch:

"Hehehe—you're already here, why don't you dare to come in.

Is it fear of me, or fear of approaching 【Truth】?

I put the method of divinity combination at the end of that passage. As long as you come in, I guarantee you will definitely get what you want."

Hearing this, Wang Mou frowned tightly.

The source of this voice was undoubtedly his main body, 0221. But why would he be so polite to him and Cheng Shi?

This didn't look like him. You must know, Wang Mou was all too clear about what kind of character this main body of his had. The more the other party was in this posture, the more it indicated that there was a big problem inside.

Thus, the doctor frowned tightly and began to look for the weakness of the cage, attempting to save himself. Cheng Shi, however, seemed to have thought of something, suddenly laughed, looked very calmly at the passage opened in the middle of the building, and asked back:

"We are afraid in our hearts, shouldn't you feel happy, 0221?

You laid out such a big game of chess, wasn't it just to collect our various desires and emotions?

Or do you feel that the desires and emotions collected in this chaos are not enough, so you plan to squeeze a little more out of the two of us?

Since you dare to appear here openly, does it mean your experiment is about to succeed?

That's why you can't wait to let us in, right?

Heh, it's really interesting, so I'd like to ask you, who exactly do you want to come in?

Is it the two of us, me and the doctor, or... just me?" ===== CHAPTER 778 =====
