Li Daoxian answered as a matter of course: "Since the entire ceremony is based on emotions, then emotions will naturally affect the direction of the entire ceremony. When the emotions that permeate the ceremony are mainly based on greed, jealousy, etc., it will be reflected in all participants in the entire ceremony..."

Having said that, Li Daoxian opened his arms and pointed to all the players.

"This participant, of course, is you."

"Your growth is due to them. If you want to break free, you will naturally have to pay a higher price. However, as a supplement to the energy of negative emotions, the price you pay will also be slightly higher..."

The players present were somewhat silent.

Doesn't this mean that the further they progress, the harder it will be to get out of the game?

Do not……

The difficulty is already very high. Among all the players present, except for a few who can afford the price, the others have no chance to escape. In other words, from now on, their behavior is no longer determined to participate in the game. If they want to survive, they can only get the final winner.

Lu Zhicheng sighed and murmured in his heart: It's difficult...

With so many people, it is not easy to survive to the end. The closer to the end, the closer to death, the more negative emotions there are, the more extreme they become, and the more intense the competition becomes.

No one wants to die. The further it gets, the more the human instinct for survival will be aroused. No one can imagine what will happen at that time.

Wang Yu shook his head slightly, completely disagreeing with the host's words.

As mentioned before, the opportunity for players to choose positive emotions like the "Seven Virtues" as energy sources for rituals and the like is simply unrealistic.

It's a complete lie.

How can fifty-five people, without strong constraints, work together, help each other and overcome difficulties?

I'm afraid it would be difficult to achieve such a perfect life even in dreams.

It is normal to fight each other and engage in intrigue.

Players are just ordinary students. As long as they are human, they will be greedy, have desires, and have selfish thoughts.

Don’t think that all players are students and won’t make any calculations. Perhaps it is precisely because they are students that they will make mistakes without considering the consequences.

Everyone has a dream of becoming a hero. Before hitting a wall, everyone will fantasize about whether they can become that hero. Even experienced adults find it difficult to control themselves when faced with the benefits in front of them, let alone students like us.

Wang Yu asked himself, even if he thought of all this, and asked him to give up the opportunity to try his best and choose a mediocre life, is this what he wanted?

the answer is negative!

As long as one person has such thoughts, a chain reaction like an avalanche will occur, and the more this happens, the more obvious the negative emotions will become.

And most importantly, although these choices seem to be the players' choices, they are essentially an inevitable result.

The host's remarks have no other substantive meaning other than deepening the players' regret, complaints, anger and other emotions.

……

Li Daoxian took in everyone's reactions and knew exactly what each of them was thinking.

He glanced at Wang Yu with slightly narrowed eyes, and stayed on him for a moment before leaving.

Wang Yu's thoughts were as clear to him as the lines on the palm of his hand.

Wang Yu said one thing right.

The reason why Li Daoxian said these words was to better stimulate everyone's negative emotions.

This is not to say

This is not only for the needs of the ceremony, but also for the players themselves. If they want to go further, they cannot rely on their current mentality of taking chances and muddling through. Even as supporting roles in the ceremony, they need stronger and deeper emotions.

Knowing that they have no way out, the negative emotions in these players' hearts are skyrocketing, but there is also a small number of players who still hold out a glimmer of hope, because according to the schedule, as long as they can win the penalty level of this round, there may be relatively "merciful" levels at the beginning of the next round.

Li Daoxian did not comment on this idea.

"Okay, that concludes the Q&A session."

Li Daoxian stopped the questioning process and continued to push forward to the next link.

"We are now going to award the rewards for the first round of duels according to our original agreement. Well, the original reward should have gone to the winner of the first round of two-on-two duels, but considering that our player representative No. 1 Wang Yu changed the first round of duels to mixed deathmatches, the conditions for awarding the rewards this time will be based on the degree of integration of all players."

"As long as the players are above the average, they will be able to receive the rewards for this round."

When the players heard about the reward, they immediately became excited.

Holding their breath, they were looking forward to what the bonus session of this round would be.

Because the format of the competition has changed, they also anticipate that the way the prizes are awarded may change.

Now the rewards are awarded based on the degree of integration, which means that half of the people will definitely get the rewards, which is a pretty good result. A worse result would be to use the number of kills or KDA as the judging criteria, in which case the number of people who get the rewards would probably be greatly reduced.

Li Daoxian waved his hand, and fifteen faint blue spots of light, with magical fluorescence, drew deep traces in the air and floated onto the bodies of the fifteen players.

The players observed each other and confirmed who the top fifteen players in terms of fusion were. These fifteen players were most likely the fifteen strongest players among the thirty players.

The faces of the players who were not selected were somewhat unhappy, which meant that they had to make some changes in the next round. Now the relationship between the strong and the weak has been given. If they cannot make a comeback in the next round, they will be eliminated in the second round.

……

The light spot floated in front of Wang Yu. Wang Yu stretched out his hand and grasped the light spot. A message flowed into his mind. This feeling was similar to the feeling when he redeemed the specialized skills on the black card before...

Wang Yu thought about it for a while, and then checked the information that appeared in his mind: [The closest link to greed is: rage. ]

fury……

Sure enough.

After Wang Yu took a look at the prompt, he felt no ripples in his heart. Not only did he know that the closest link to greed was rage, but he also knew that the hint given by this reward information was not to let him go to the Raging Volcano in the next stage, but to remind him... that he needed to find a way to devour the owner of the rage feature.

He did not interfere with the competition in the first round because he wanted to see whether Zhuo Ling would still be the owner of the rage attribute in the end.

The previous results also prove that Zhuo Ling is the best carrier of the rage characteristic.

Therefore, in the first stage, he was already thinking of ways to improve Zhuo Ling's strength. After all, if the rage characteristic was too weak when swallowing, and it was directly assimilated by greed, it would be a bit troublesome...

……

Li Ting received the information in her mind: [The closest link to lust is: jealousy. ]

Seeing this message, Li Ting smiled.

What a coincidence, the player who has integrated the jealous gold material is now under my control. I have plenty of methods and can try them slowly. What does this prompt message mean?

……

Lu Zhicheng also received the reward message [Arrogance is not a sin, but it is the cause of sin. You are close to other sins, and you are the chief sinner among the seven deadly sins.]

After reading the message calmly, Lu Zhicheng began to read Wang Yu's mind skillfully.

When he saw that the hint meant devouring similar evil owners in one's own way, Lu Zhicheng felt a strong sense of disgust.

Maybe I should do something...

……

Long Muba saw the reward information, but after just one glance, his face turned as blue-gray as a dead person, so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

Because there is only a simple tip above.

[The closest link to jealousy is lust. ]

No matter how you understand the word "similar" in this hint, you are now controlled by lust, and the other party can do whatever they want to you, so you are at an absolute disadvantage.

It seems that I have to get rid of control as soon as possible. Fortunately, I already have some clues.

Li Ting... Humph, just wait and see, this isn't over between us yet.

……

Fifteen players got hints, and they also paid equal attention to who didn't get hints.

Many people have already made plans in their hearts. In the second round of elimination, they will start with these weak persimmons...

Li Daoxian clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention to him.

As the players and the audience focused their attention on him, he then went on to state the additional rules for the second round of matches:

"Before the second round of the duel begins, you will also have time to collect materials to strengthen yourself. As I said in the last round, everyone can eventually choose two materials to fuse together. However, there is a difference in this round."

"You don't need to go back to your room to fuse this time. You can start fusing anytime and anywhere. There is no limit to the number of fusions you can fuse during the collection process. As long as you have the ability to fuse, you can try to fuse as much as you want. But at the end of the collection process, you must keep only two of all the fused materials as the final choice."

"Just a reminder. From this round on, everyone should be careful. It will be a little dangerous. Now, everyone, a new round of the game begins!"

Li Daoxian finished explaining the additional rules and smiled slightly in his heart. The real part of this session only began from this moment.

……

Without giving much rest time, a new round of competition began soon.

Because of the experience from the previous round, players are familiar with choosing different areas.

In their opinion, the most important thing to pay attention to is the players against each other. After the first round of experience, everyone now has a better understanding of their own abilities. Any player who has died many times will have figured out a set of fighting methods of his own.

The situations where one can gain an advantage through training like before are becoming less and less common.

Nowadays, players' mastery of their own abilities is the key to victory or defeat, so the war between players is becoming more and more brutal, and there are many cases where players will fail if they are not careful.

However, this idea was quickly overturned after they entered different areas.

……

The first thing Long Muba did when the game started was to observe Li Ting's movements.

He hoped to avoid Li Ting because he found that being in the room, with the isolation of the room and the distance, Long Muba's admiration for her was slightly weakened.

So if they can separate the different areas, Long Muba will have more chances to escape.

However, he was waiting for Li Ting to make a decision, and Li Ting was also staring at him intently with a charming smile on her lips.

After receiving the reward information, Li Ting decided not to create any trouble and was ready to firmly control Long Muba, the owner of the golden material with the [Jealousy] attribute, whose bloodline had obviously changed after integrating the material.

Long Muba naturally understood Li Ting's idea, so he gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try.

He still chose [Needlepoint Oasis]. He needed to strengthen his own characteristics. After witnessing Zhuo Ling's advancement in the first round of duels, he knew that as long as they could not complete a further fusion, they would always be the second echelon and would not be able to compete with the players in the first echelon.

There was no way he could escape from Li Ting's control.

He must compress this process to the extreme... before he has a chance of breaking free from control.

Long Muba appeared in the Needlepoint Oasis. When he first appeared on this familiar lake, he felt something different. There was a special smell in the air, very fragrant...

This taste made him feel very familiar, just like the candy his grandmother gave him when he was a child...

It’s just a pity that the candies were always snatched away by my brothers at that time… At that time, I thought it was only the candies that were snatched away, but who would have thought…

wrong.

He shook his head and opened his eyes, only to see a white mist in front of him.

The magic mirror bloodline gave him a warning, allowing him to break free from the illusion. With a flash of lightning in his hands, he tore the fog surrounding him into pieces.

This also allowed him to see the situation around him.

The surface of the lake in the Needlepoint Oasis was shrouded in mist, which was condensing into air masses. In each air mass, the figures of players could be vaguely seen.

"What are these?"

Long Muba saw with his own eyes that not far away, a player wrapped in white mist, thick white mist flowed out from his seven orifices, merging into the white mist surrounding him. Then his body gradually turned into white smoke and dissipated on the spot. The thick mist dissipated and drifted to other places...

From beginning to end, the player didn't make a sound.

And such scenes are constantly playing out on this lake...

"In the end what happened?"
