Chapter 823 Gods' Game: Card Swapping 67
The time before the individual competition began was enough for her to find Moki's game information and she also saw the analysis about Moki.
He possesses the ability to rob a target of a certain type of property for nearly six hours, whether it be attributes, skills, wealth, or equipment; he can steal it if he wants!
Such a formidable skill has only one drawback: it can only be used once a day, and each time you can only choose one type: wealth or skill? Attributes or equipment?
Upon seeing Moji again, Yu Xunge's mind didn't turn to killing him, but rather to wondering how to obtain Moji's ability to steal others' possessions...
In fact, she had been thinking about this ever since she learned about Mogi's abilities.
Such a powerful skill, if only it were a divinely bestowed talent, she could exchange it for [Reversal of Moment].
Is it possible for distorted cognition to be illogical? Of the more than a thousand divinely bestowed talents she saw in the sewers, were there any that she could utilize?
Of course, this skill could also come from some kind of item.
However, items of this caliber cannot be unbound.
Moji's expression wasn't much better than Yu Xunge's; in fact, his look was even more serious.
He possesses the skill to steal the harvest of a target for nearly 6 hours, but Moonlight Wetlands Song seeker has the ability to stop time!
Even if the time stop shouldn't affect other players, the mere fact that time stops is enough for one person to handle most crises.
No matter how many advantages you have, it's useless; the situation could be reversed in the blink of an eye.
Even if he finds the god based on the clues, he might still encounter time stop...
Moreover, given that the opponent dared to take on 17 apprentices single-handedly when he only had a sliver of blood left, he dared not make a move easily.
At least, before Xun Ge in Moonlight Wetlands sets his sights on him, he is unwilling to provoke the other party first.
The two remained locked in a stalemate, both extremely wary of each other.
Yu Xunge was worried that the skills or hints she had learned could be taken away by Mo Ji with a single skill.
Moji feared that the next time he blinked, he would find a dagger stuck in his heart.
At that moment, the two of them looked up at the roof to their right, where another uninvited guest stood—Song Gui.
The three apprentices stood in a triangular formation.
Moji was one of the most nervous people on the field, and he certainly knew Songgui's abilities.
Yu Xunge wasn't too nervous. Apart from [Short Hibernation], all of her divinely bestowed talents required spellcasting materials. However, [Short Hibernation] was a form of mental control, and she would awaken once her health dropped below 20%.
In other words, this skill is ineffective against players with less than 20% health.
Her current health is only 0.724%, so even if Song Gui borrows this skill, it will be ineffective against her.
If it weren't for the fact that Song Gui's "Lend Me" skill is a divinely bestowed talent that happens to correspond to "Wrong Season," she would have insisted on switching it over.
The imminent battle in the arena slightly eased the tension between the audience members.
The first thing to do was to find the song!
She almost became a blur as she rushed towards Moji. During the charge, her figure split in two, and a black shadow with the same shape as Xun Ge separated out. The main body attacked Moji, but the black shadow turned around and ran back to loot the corpse and pick up things.
Each apprentice can carry three magical items. When they die, only the magical items bound to their soul will leave with them; the rest will remain in the game.
Interestingly, the spatial items distributed by each school were not bound to the students' souls; they were simply recorded with very basic information, making them impossible for others to open at will, much like the locks on a tree tower.
It can be unbound by finding a professional, unlike items that are soul-bound, which can only be unbound by the owner.
It seems like this method is being used to teach apprentices to use soul binding with caution.
When Xun Ge's emotionless eyes turned towards him, and she charged at him with all her might without any warning, Moji knew that this battle was unavoidable.
He cannot yet use his deprivation skill [Low-Risk Investment] on Xun Ge to deprive Xun Ge of the divine hints he has received.
Doing that would only attract Song Gui's attention.
He raised his voice to Song Gui and said, "Join me, and I'll let you have the final blow!"
However, Song Gui just gave him a very gentle smile, then turned and ran away.
Only a fool would stay. She arrived long ago. Xun Ge clearly used some kind of skill to lock her health bar; she couldn't be damaged at all!
Mogi naturally knew that he had already begun to retreat when he shouted the order.
But he soon realized he couldn't escape; Xun Ge's skill was simply unbeatable!
Moreover, it seems the other party won't stop until they kill me.
Since that's the case...
After fully restoring his health and casting a shield, he used the skill [Low-Risk Investment] on Xun Ge!
The moment he successfully used it, he destroyed the small golden pickaxe in his hand without hesitation; it was a space equipment uniformly issued by the deep-sea mine.
In the moment his consciousness faded, he gave Xun Ge a mocking smile, his anger palpable.
He wanted to laugh at the other party for trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead; not only did they fail to kill him, they also lost the divine guidance.
However, what he saw was the other person's calm face.
Yu Xunge was indeed calm, because this was the result she wanted.
There is no better opportunity than this moment. Moji will never know that he has mastered a skill in the game. If he were to take it away, he would definitely choose the divine prompt.
If she doesn't see Moki again, it will be at the God Game next year. She must keep a "low-risk investment" seed on her body!
What if I have the opportunity to fully acquire it during this period? Or what if I need to use this skill in some future opportunity?
As for divine guidance?
She couldn't recall the clues, but she remembered the answers she had deduced.
In a short period of time, she forced herself to come up with the answer, assuming she was about to forget the question.
There is a contradiction between the prompts.
"The so-called deities are never directed at a single target."
"It's very likely one of these contestants."
One clue pointed to herself.
To put it another way, she could use a little snowman.
Even if these aren't enough?
The dark figure who had gone out to collect equipment returned to Yu Xunge's side. She had a trench coat tied into a bundle on her back, containing magical items, and was holding a white robe stained with blood in her hand.
This is a divine message she wrote with blood as ink and withered leaves as a pen. The shadowy figure was taking notes while she was fighting Moji.
Yu Xunge took the unfolded document, quickly glanced at the prompts, and then used [Calm Down] to burn them all.
One of the clues is "He hosted a ball game in the old town."
It was a very vague hint, but Yu Xunge, as the person involved, keenly sensed that it was likely referring to him.
It was this prompt that made her suspicious, wondering if the "gods" referred to them, the contestants.
If that's the case, then the contradictions among those prompts make sense.
Since every citizen in Demon City who possesses a "Demon Certificate" is not a real demon, there is no rule that gods must be imagined gods.
This guess is certainly not absolute, but once this doubt arises, it is difficult to extinguish.
She still needs to verify her guess.
If the "deity" is truly one of these contestants, then why didn't she complete the mission after killing so many apprentices?
Was it because she didn't "find Him" when she killed them?
Or are these so-called gods actually the contestants who possess demonic credentials?
