Volume 3: The Utopia of the Demonic City Chapter 3: Departure
“…”
Please have some shame.
Looking at the referee who openly announced that he wanted to participate in the competition, the contestants were saying "fuck it" in their hearts.
The staff member, however, looked knowledgeable and came forward with an impeccable smile to explain:
"Your summons and you are one and the same, so whether you or your summons go on stage, it will be regarded as your participation. I am really sorry that I cannot let you display your strength."
"My Lord, my Lord! Did you hear that? He said we are one and the same!"
"I heard it... never mind."
Li Lin sat on the chair and clicked the handle.
"So what's your first place prize? Can you tell me?"
"It is consistent with the consolation gifts our organizing committee sent to the referees."
The staff seemed to have been mentally prepared to deal with this tough guy and they still had smiles on their faces.
"A total of one hundred high-purity soul crystals, equivalent to the effect of directly sacrificing one hundred people. It has a very good effect on demons and devils of all levels. We can also replace other professions with corresponding equivalents."
"Isn't that too few? Only a hundred people?"
Li Lin frowned.
"A world-class conference only offers 100 blood sacrifice souls. Isn't that a bit too much?"
“…”
Looking at Li Lin with a dissatisfied look on his face, the other NPCs present watched and pretended not to hear anything.
What does "purifying life" mean? It means someone who purifies all life. Where this gentleman walked, there was not even a living dog. Those who survived were either crazy or went crazy and started a civil war, and died in the blink of an eye.
He killed 10,000 people with his own hands, and nearly 500,000 people were sacrificed directly. Killing people is no different from breathing to him. The cold and ruthless legend of this terrifying existence is spreading throughout the void. At first, I thought the rumors that he was cruel and ruthless in creating the great demon were just fabricated . Now I know from his appearance that he really doesn't take human life seriously.
Not taking human life seriously means not taking them seriously, and their death is in vain.
Who makes people awesome?
“…”
However, these people's actions made Li Lin look puzzled.
Why do you see me as if I have seen a ghost? Am I so famous in the demon world? Or is the demon world also considered part of the void, and the legendary level is also useful here?
But seeing the look in Li Lin's eyes, everyone was shaking like a sieve, and it was impossible to communicate, as if they were afraid that this person would sacrifice them alive if he didn't like them. Especially the puppet in Li Lin's arms, who was pouting with dissatisfaction and wanted to climb on Li Lin's head from time to time, the fluctuations emitted by it made these people as scared as grandsons.
In the end, it was the staff member who smoothed things over with a smile on his face.
"It's like this. Because our resources are limited, and to be honest, it's really hard to get the relevant industries together. I hope Master Li Lin will be more tolerant."
"real?"
“Because we have double-digit referees and a lot of contestants, we really can’t come up with much.”
The staff rubbed his hands awkwardly, and explained as if he was very embarrassed:
"Twenty-four referees, fifteen thousand contestants, three hundred and sixty thousand residents, distributed in fourteen regions. All referees have the power to make their own decisions. They will punish any contestant who may cause damage, and they are also responsible for determining the number of survivors on the scene. The referees are generally responsible for dealing with those who go too far. Each of them has a skilled and excellent means of erasure."
"The work of restoring the venue will be handled by the engineering team, and the medical work will be handled by the angels and pharmacists. Several seeded players and referees will join the city at the very beginning. So all participants don't need to worry too much."
"The entire city is a big battlefield. Everyone will get everything they want in this ideal country. Whether it's blood, glory, or wealth. Moreover, the identities of the players may change at any time. Every resident can kill any player and obtain the brand from their corpse. The same is true for referees. However, few people will go crazy and attack referees. In the past tournaments, there have only been three successful cases of players turning into referees. I also hope that everyone will be responsible for their own lives. Although this is an unlimited tournament, life is limited."
“…”
After hearing this, many contestants became more and more distant from Li Lin, who seemed harmless.
Under this kind of rules, the referee obviously holds the power of life and death. If you are not satisfied with someone and kill him, you will be so miserable that you can't even cry.
However, Li Lin himself did not care about what the other contestants thought. Instead, after listening to these seemingly crazy and illogical rules, he fell into deep thought, then keenly noticed a certain word and sighed as if he was relieved.
"Unlimited... unlimited..."
Although the referee is restricted from leaving the field directly, even his identity as a referee may be taken away.
This kind of naked supremacy of power, should it be said that it is worthy of being the devil's utopia? It's really barbaric.
Carefully chewing on the meaning behind these rules, Li Lin thought for a while and nodded to the staff.
"I see. So when do we arrive?"
"What are you talking about?"
The staff member walked to the edge of the window with a standard smile on his face, reached out and pulled open the curtains.
The colorful neon lights suddenly completely intertwined the light and shadow in the room like countless sharp blades, and made the faces of the staff look uncertain, as if they were sneering.
The muscles under the originally respectful body suddenly swelled up. The small suit was stretched extremely tight. Countless bloodshot oozed from the blue eyes, and the smile on his face gradually became distorted and frantic. Even the voice became hoarse and unpleasant, as if the noise was made by the friction between metal clips.
"Aren't we already here? Welcome to the ideal country, everyone. I hope you have a good time—"
'laugh'
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sizzling sound like a hot knife cutting through butter.
Li Lin stood up under the dull gaze of others, and slowly took back the two-handed sword burning with holy flames from the two halves of the staff's waist.
The referee who attacked the staff member put the puppet on his head, squatted on the ground and chopped off the head of the staff member who died with his eyes wide open. He reached out to turn over the corpse and found a large amount of hard currency from the still burning body. Then he turned around and looked at the contestants. His face, which did not look like a human, was full of calmness.
"I figured he was going to attack me, so I took him out first . Do you want some?"
"No, that's fine..."
"Really? What a shame, it's an unlimited competition. Unlimited is good..."
Let's go, Sally.
This city is the right place for us.
Looking at the contestants with cold sweat on their foreheads, the unconscious killer shrugged his shoulders and left the room with the doll on his head.
