Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Deliberately Cruel and Flaunting It, Tormenting the Entire City's Lust

The balloon seller's words hadn't even finished when he was interrupted by the person before him.

He was already quite puzzled, never expecting that at a time like this, someone would actually take the initiative to approach other players. It was far too risky.

Unless... the other party had already obtained that special ability card. The power of that card gave them confidence!

So, his heart had been filled with trepidation all along.

But now, after being cut off by such a caustic voice, he finally lifted his head and looked closely.

Not looking was one thing, but this one glance made him realize with shock that the problem was far more serious than he had previously imagined.

The one who had come to find him... was actually "Sin"!

His face instantly stiffened, cold sweat broke out all over his body, and even that forced smile became difficult to maintain for a moment.

Why? How could he possibly have found me?

He had indeed fantasized that... what if... what if he succeeded in ambushing the strongest player? He would ascend to the heavens in a single step!

But now, with this person truly standing before him, he realized what it meant to wake up from a dream.

Instantly, countless questions echoed in his mind.

What was his identity?

Why wasn't he the slightest bit worried about being shot?

Had he already obtained the card?

Given "Sin's" character... would he really not attack me?

That right hand capable of firing the "Rays of Love" also began to stir restlessly.

"What kind of expression is that? It's truly a mood-killer to look at."

"Why does my world contain someone like you? How about you just quit."

Lust's purple mask bore a caustic gaze that swept over the man from head to toe (︶^︶), as if seeing through his entire soul.

"Forget it. Right now, can you remove your filthy hands from my balloons?"

"Oh......"

Lust's gaze inherently carried a terrifying emotional manipulation ability. With just one look, it made the player's internal organs feel a burning sensation.

That feeling of surging emotions made it utterly impossible for him to express his inner thoughts in words.

The hand gripping that large bunch of balloons very involuntarily loosened.

Swish!

Just as all the helium balloons began to rise, before they could even scatter, a flash of lightning-like brilliance streaked across.

Lu Ce's hand was as fast as a blade at that moment! Instantly, he severed the part the other had grabbed with his hand.

Cutting a suspended rope barehanded was no different from using a knife for Lu Ce.

After obtaining the balloons, he casually tossed them towards the motorcycle beside him.

The Black Knight was also silent now, having realized that even in a war of words, it was no match for this guy. It very consciously reconfigured itself, securing the balloons onto its handlebars.

Lust lightly tapped the ground with one foot, his entire body seemingly as light as a goose feather, leaping onto the motorcycle.

With his back to the player behind him, the player's right hand trembled as he raised it, his mind in a fierce internal struggle.

Should he... gamble?

What if, by chance, he succeeded?

He was a Blue Lover. Although he couldn't eliminate the other, if he could successfully convert factions, the bonus points for himself...

Vroom!

With a stomp on the accelerator, a tremendous roar erupted, and that ferocious-looking, massive motorcycle vanished from the spot.

Sometimes it's like this. Once courage fails to be mustered instantly, the opportunity is gone in the blink of an eye.

And also...

Looking down at his own right hand, the balloon man discovered strangely that he had been completely unable to fire that ray of light just now.

Recalling the previous game rule description in his mind...

—"Please, in this city filled with love and joy, lovingly fire your rays."

Firing this ray... actually required being "filled with love"?

He had thought that phrase was just an adjective before, but now it seemed it was a hard requirement?

Wasn't that just great!

Then in this world, who could possibly fire a ray at "Sin" while "filled with love"?

Moreover, firing a ray with love was inherently difficult. It would be hard to stir up such emotions towards anyone, right?

From the very beginning, this game required displaying one's naturalness and happiness to obtain that special function card.

And now, it also required stirring up love in one's heart to fire the ray.

His face gradually stiffened again. He forcibly plastered a smile back onto his face and began brainwashing himself.

"I am happy, I am joyful... My heart is filled with love..."

......

"I am so bored!"

On the other side, Lust had already begun tormenting other people. Before him was a small stall with a ring-toss game.

Holding a few rings in his hand, hitting the target every single time, it had become utterly uninteresting.

Beside them, a sugar-coated hawthorn skewer cart had been forcibly squeezed over by the Black Knight, putting on a strained smile there.

"The facilities you have here are really not up to par."

"This is the full extent of your abilities? Even acting a part, you do it so unconvincingly."

Listening to Lust's voice, the two men secretly exchanged a glance. The smiles on their faces never wavered; their composure was much better than the previous guy's.

Among them, one was an [Apostle]!

Seeing "Sin" appear right before his eyes, he was already contemplating whether to try firing a shot.

However, he also had to consider the possibility of this guy retaliating. Even if he couldn't kill, getting beaten up was still a problem.

"Hah, the scent of weakness, of having ideas but no guts, on you two is far too strong."

Yet at that very moment, Lust directly exposed their inner thoughts, stating it bluntly without any courtesy.

That feeling of being mind-read instantly froze all their thoughts once again.

"No matter what, you can only wear those ugly, fake smiles, wondering in your hearts whether to gamble, but ultimately, you definitely won't take action."

Both men fell into silence. Hearing about someone was not the same as meeting them. The sheer nastiness of the person before them was even more extreme than the rumors.

"So you... what are you doing right now?" Finally, the Apostle couldn't help but ask.

"Me? Hahahaha!" Lust's expression became animated, his eyebrows dancing.

"I'm playing the game, can't you tell?"

"This game inherently has levels. Your clumsy performances are merely necessary components that constitute the game."

"From the very beginning, it was destined that you are all toys, and I am the only true player!"

"Someone narcissistic to the extreme is truly detestable." Several blocks away, Xie Antong crossed her long legs, saying with a speechless smile.

"Lust wants people to perform love and joy, so you absolutely must act caustic and flamboyant, right?"
