Lucky's Fighting Stage~

Rumble!

In the sixth compartment, a film of red light quickly climbed up from the ground, separating this room from the others. Bai Ruoyao didn't expect such a thing to happen, and he showed a rare expression of dismay. The other two groups of players also looked over, soon Bai Ruoyao calmed down, he stroked his chin and gave a meaningful "oh".

"Hmmm ...... Fighting Stage?"

Santa corrected him: "It's Lucky's Fighting Stage. Santa knows that kids don't like single player games, and that they need to play with other kids to be truly happy. So my sweet boy, who would you like to choose as your opponent? I'm really looking forward to it."

Bai Ruoyao asked, "You can only choose the three of them?" He points to the Tang Mo trio.

Santa regretted, "It looks like you really want to play with the other children, but I must tell you with regret that you can only choose these three children. Santa's games are very democratic, and I never force a child to play. That's the only restriction I put on you. You can't choose between the other two groups. But the choice is still yours. Come on, kid, say who you want to choose."

An unsuspecting line of sight brushes over Tang Mo's body, making it impossible to ignore.

Tang Mo raised his head and stared coldly at the doll-faced youth.

The two men were five rooms away, looking at each other from a distance. Bai Ruoyao tilted his head and smiled, Tang Mo was calm and unperturbed.

The remaining two groups could not hear Bai Ruoyao's words, but they could hear Santa Claus and the Black Tower. They watched what happened to Tang Mo's group warily and tentatively.

Not being able to use powers and only being able to use props doesn't work in Tang Mo's favor.

Fu Wen sounded a bit worried, "Tang won't be in trouble, that psychopath is really quite powerful, Tang also said, Bai Ruoyao's close combat is very strong, he might not be Bai Ruoyao's opponent."

Chen Shanshan analyzed calmly, "Bai Ruoyao's lucky dice is 6 points, Tang Mo's is 1 point. If he wins the fight, he can exchange points with Tang Mo, or he can choose not to. But in case Tang wins, Tang gets 6 points. A normal person wouldn't pick Tang to eliminate uncertainty." But Bai Ruoyao is not a normal person.

Fu Wen voiced, "Why do I think he'll pick Tang, that kind of psychotic idea none of us could have imagined ......"

Yes, anyone who triggers "Dueling Stage" will definitely not choose a player who has less points than them.

Tang Mo's lucky dice is 1 point, Bai Ruoyao is 6 points. Even if Bai Ruoyao wins, he gets nothing. On the contrary, if he loses, he will be swapped by Tang Mo and become a 1-point player. Anyone with intelligence would know how to choose, but Bai Ruoyao is not without intelligence, but likes to do things that are detrimental to himself.

This is something that Chen Shanshan and Fu Wen have a deep understanding of.

Bai Ruoyao smiled and stroked his chin, his deep gaze resting on Tang Mo. Just as he was about to open his mouth, a calm male voice attracted Santa's attention, "The Black Tower says that violence is forbidden in this game. Is fighting considered violence?"

Santa froze and rubbed his head, "Yeah, violence is forbidden in the Black Tower ......"

As if only just realizing this problem, Santa Claus pondered for half a day, clapped his hands, and laughed out loud, "Child you are so thoughtful, but how could the great Santa Claus not think of this matter?" Obviously not noticing the problem at all, Santa Claus pretended to be aware of it and said, "You have to be united and friendly, of course you can't fight, but this is just a cut-throat competition. Friendship first, competition second, of course no killing. Santa Claus hates dishonest children the most, followed by children who kill. That's why you guys can't lay your hands on each other, you have to grasp this degree!"

Fu Wenduo raised one eyebrow, "You can duel to injure, but not duel to kill?"

Santa nodded, "Yeah, no killing."

The interest in Bai Ruoyao's eyes dropped a few points as he asked boredly, "What if you want to kill someone?"

Santa: "Then Santa will stop you at the first opportunity."

Bai Ruoyao's eyes suddenly lit up, "What do you mean by first time?"

Santa hemmed and hawed and gave a kind smile, "Just stopping you as fast as I can."

The crowd was all silent.

What's the fastest speed?

Santa's strength was unfathomable, and he wouldn't miss a beat if he really wanted to stop players from killing. But would he really do his best to stop it?

To be fair, Santa Claus is one of the more player-friendly bosses; he doesn't go crazy trying to eat the player like Granny Wolf, and he doesn't loathe the player immensely and constantly look for opportunities to kill the player like Schrödinger. But he stays out of the way, appearing to be friendly to the player without actually protecting them.

Every player who dies in a game of hopscotch is all but revealing the true nature of this dark tower monster.

As down to earth as he is, he's still the Black Tower Boss.

Who knows how fast Santa will stop Bai Ruoyao when he really wants to kill his opponent. Players stare at Santa Claus with a wary eye, gaining a deeper understanding of the kind-faced, white-bearded old man.

Seeming to be a little weak by this bare|naked|skeptical gaze, Santa coughed seriously and decided to redeem himself, "Children who kill people are all bad children, and Santa will definitely give them punishment."

Tang Mo: "What punishment?"

Santa was stumped by the question and held his tongue before saying, "I'll banish all the bad kids from my candy house and never allow them in again!"

Crowd: "......"

What a punishment!

Santa: "...... So, then I'll never give him a Christmas present again?"

The punishment was so retarded it made Mu Huixue laugh out loud nonchalantly, and she didn't seem to be afraid that Santa would get mad and kill her, causing the others to look at her.

Santa slowly put away his smile and said in a hoarse voice, "Bad boys, there will be punishment." The tone of this sentence was very different from before, and the players looked towards Santa Claus. By now Santa had returned to normal, he smiled at Bai Ruoyao and said, "Well, my lovely child, you haven't chosen your opponent yet. You must remember, no killing oh, play the game properly."

Tang Mo Prepare yourself for Bai Ruoyao to pick himself, only to see the doll-faced youth staring at him, the corners of his mouth grinning a malicious smile, and then pointing with his right hand ......

"I'll take her."

The young woman's entire body froze in place, "I ......?!"

Bai Ruoyao: "Hee hee, it's you."

The young woman, urged by Santa Claus, walked to the sixth grid with a pale face. Her body was trembling, she knew her own strength best, there was no way she could beat Bai Ruoyao, Bai Ruoyao wanted to kill her just as easily. Beans of sweat rolled down from her forehead, she wanted to question this baby-faced young man, he was obviously enemies with that man (Tang Mo), why would he choose himself, couldn't he have some backbone, choose his enemy, and kill him with his bare hands! It's not like Santa Claus said he would definitely kill the bad boy.

Bai Ruoyao threw the lucky dice into mid-air and caught it securely again. He looked back and saw the young woman staring at him with crimson eyes, he gave a crooked smile, "Do I look so much like a fool?"

The young woman froze, "What?"

Bai Ruoyao laughed, "It's not like you can get anything by defeating Tangtang, he's so unlucky that the dice are all 1 point. I'm not stupid, why would I pick him, hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe ...... of course I picked you."

Surprisingly, it was in response to the young woman's query.

Although they couldn't hear the voices of the other group, Mu Huixue and Chen Shanshan guessed what Bai Ruoyao was saying. Mu Huixue gave a disdainful laugh, "Obviously afraid of death, what a nice thing to say."

Chen Shanshan looked at Mu Huixue without moving.

In the sixth compartment, when the young woman stood up, two red socks suddenly appeared in mid-air.

Santa: "Put your dice in and the fighting officially begins. Whoever wins gets to choose the stocking first."

Bai Ruoyao stepped forward and curiously surveyed the two socks, even going so far as to sniff them. "No smell?" He was so bored that he simply shrugged his shoulders and threw the dice into the socks, incidentally turning back to the young woman and making a neck-wiping gesture to provoke the other party.

Gritting her teeth, the young woman slowly walks up and throws her dice into her sock. Just a moment after her dice had fallen into the sock, Bai Ruoyao was still turning around and walking back to his original spot when the young woman suddenly stormed off. She bellowed angrily and pulled out a small silver knife from her pocket.

The silver knife blossomed into a blinding white light, illuminating the entire candy house in such a way that it was impossible to open one's eyes. Everyone did not expect the young woman who looked scared and weak to make such a decisive action, taking the initiative to strike and catch Bai Ruoyao off guard. Seeing that the weird silver knife was about to stab into the back of Bai Ruoyao's head, the young woman was also afraid: "Don't!"

She thought she was going to kill Bai Ruoyao and proceed to be punished by Santa Claus.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Ruoyao side-stepped his head to avoid the knife, which slid in a small circle in the air as if it had eyes and shot towards his eyes again. Bai Ruoyao smiled, "Huh, this thing looks a bit familiar." A concealed weapon knife that would track the object, this was somewhat similar to Tang Mo's Checkmate's ability.

Bai Ruoyao moved his wrist and a silver butterfly|knife appeared in his right hand.

The silver-colored butterfly|knife danced a beautiful knife flower in the air with extreme speed. Only heard a crisp metal collision sound, flashing white light knife by the butterfly knife cut into two pieces, fell to the ground. Bai Ruoyao did not stop, right foot stomp, the whole person like a rocket whoosh out, pointing directly at the young woman.

The woman was so scared that her face lost its blood color, and in fear, she pulled out many small white flowers from her pocket and threw them out with both hands. These flowers immediately exploded on the ground, restricting Bai Ruoyao's position. But the gap in strength can't be bridged by a few fine-grade props, the butterfly | knife arrived in an instant, the silver god of death holding a scythe, pressed the blade against the woman's throat.

The cold aura of death pressed down on the young woman's breath. All she had to do was move and the knife would easily slice her neck.

The smoke formed after the small white flowers exploded slowly dissipated, and the doll-faced youth grinned a wide smile.

"I won."

After saying that, Bai Ruoyao took the Butterfly Sword back into his sleeve.

The young woman slumped to the ground, "I ...... admit defeat."

This lopsided and crushing situation was very upsetting to Santa, it was so unexciting. He watched as Bai Ruoyao walked over to the stockings and grabbed one, and the woman got up from the ground and walked back to the starting point. Only halfway there, Bai Ruoyao opened his mouth, "I didn't intend to do it, hehehe, it's all 6 points, you just admit defeat. I didn't realize that you, a bad woman, would try to beat me ......"

The young woman snapped her head around and looked at Bai Ruoyao incredulously.

"You clearly gestured at me and said you were going to kill me ......"

Bai Ruoyao winked, "I didn't say that."

"You ......!"

Tang Mo stood at the starting point, looking at the scene from a distance. He turned his head and whispered to Fu Wenduo, who could not hear the sound, but nodded and said something back to him.

"Psycho."

There are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames.

Obviously very afraid of death, but like all kinds of death.

Bai Ruoyao takes his dice and prepares to return to the starting point. But this time when he jumped back from the sixth square, he triggered a tornado attack of strawberry ice cream in the third square. Bai Ruoyao yelled "I hate strawberries" and accidentally stepped on this square, and eventually lost the game to Ning Zheng.

In the other two groups, there was also a player who had played to the sixth frame. When he reached the sixth frame, the Black Tower's crisp beep sounded once again -

"Dingdong! Player Li Jue has successfully triggered the 'Lucky Fighting Stage'. Please choose any player ......"

It turns out that the sixth frame is the trigger frame of the fighting arena!

The man froze, then slowed down. Excited, he hurriedly reached out and pointed to some young girl in his group. The girl's face changed instantly.

This is Fu Wenduo's group, the girl's dice is 4, the man's dice is 3. It's obvious that the girl is the least physically fit of the players in this group, and even though props can be used in the duel, it's no surprise that the man will win.

As expected, the girl quickly surrendered after injuring one of her arms. The player called Li Jue excitedly took away her dice and continued his own game.

When Santa groups players, points 3 and 4 are in a group, 2 and 5 are in a group, and 1 and 6 are in a group. The first group has relatively similar points, and it's not enough to drive players crazy. But the other two groups have a large difference in the number of points, and when the opportunity to swap dice appears in front of them, most players who believe in their own strength will never give up this opportunity.

This is where weak female players and children become targets.

Fu Wen sounded nervous as well. He was fine, he had 2 points, no one would choose him for a duel except for players with the same 2 points. Chen Shanshan was different. Without Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, Fu Wen Sheng couldn't protect Chen Shanshan at all, he couldn't even take care of himself.

Fu Wen sounded worried, "Sister Shanshan, your points are 5, will they ......"

Chen Shanshan patted the kid's shoulder, "Don't worry."

Fu Xiaodi is not at all reassuring.

He had already learned from Tang Mo that Chen Shanshan's physical ability could never be improved due to her special ability, and she was naturally at a disadvantage in fighting.As a man, he couldn't protect Chen Shanshan. As a man, he couldn't protect Chen Shanshan, and if Tang Mo and his big brother were there, they would have a way to deter other players, but he couldn't.

The child was rambling when a slightly muffled female voice rang out from a short distance away, "I'll take her."

Fu Wen Sheng looked up and saw a short-haired woman staring viciously at Chen Shanshan, not hiding the greed in her eyes. Chen Shanshan actually did not panic, the short-haired woman face has two scars, a wheat-colored skin, thin muscles attached to the body, obviously a ruthless character. But Chen Shanshan calmly walked to the sixth grid, she walked to the Christmas stocking ready to put her dice in.

Before putting it in, she looked up and asked, "Santa, is it okay to abstain from the Fighting Stage?"

Santa froze, "Huh?"

Chen Shanshan: "Is it okay to forfeit, or to concede?"

Santa didn't respond and replied, "Yes."

Chen Shanshan nodded and threw the dice into his sock, then in the next instant turned his head to the woman and said, "I concede."

Short-haired woman: "......"

Santa: "......"

Chen Shanshan reaches right out and takes the woman's dice out, leaving her with her own.

Short-haired woman: "Wait, you ...... you admit defeat?"

Chen Shanshan : "Santa said it was okay to concede, I couldn't beat you, so I conceded." After a pause, she said, "Or are you trying to say that you don't want to take my dice, and that you want to take your own original dice? That's me getting ahead of myself, I can switch back with you again."

The short-haired woman felt like she was punching cotton, and she couldn't say anything even though she was angry. She took Chen Shanshan's dice away, muttered "There's no such thing as a calm child", and continued her game.

The abandonment was decisive and unrelenting.

This skinny girl was more composed than the players thought. She was not strong enough to win, and she knew for sure that she would not be able to win, so she simply didn't even fight and simply admitted defeat. Normal players wouldn't risk being punished by Santa Claus to kill her, she wouldn't risk her life, but this little girl didn't try at all. Either she was cowardly to the extreme, or she was calm to the extreme.

This way Chen Shanshan and Fu Wen Sheng both have two points on their dice, and the player does not invite them to a duel on purpose in order to improve their points.

Chen Shanshan's thoughts Fu Wen Sheng could understand, but he would not be as decisive as his opponent.

After holding his tongue for a while, Fu Wen Sheng couldn't help but whisper, "Sister Shanshan, we only have 2 points now. The number of points on the lucky dice will actually affect the penalties that will be triggered, right?"

It's nice that the game has been going on for an hour now, and players have long since discovered that the lucky dice can be used as more than just stones to throw into the grid they want to enter. The points of the Lucky Dice affect the dangers that players may encounter.

Bai Ruoyao's point value is 6, so he is very lucky to have reached the fifth square before triggering a penalty. The middle-aged man who died in the first candy house had 1, so he was unlucky enough to get to the second square before triggering a penalty.

The same goes for other players' games.

The larger the number of points, the fewer penalties are triggered. The smaller the number of points, the more frequently the penalty is triggered.

Chen Shanshan Changing her dice from 5 to 2 did make her less of a target, but the more likely she was to encounter danger when she started the game later. Moreover, the Lucky Dice had a chance to permanently increase a player's Luck Value, and of all the gifts given by Santa Claus, this was the only one that all players wanted.

Chen Shanshan : "If you want to improve your luck value, the prerequisite is to be able to live."

Fu Wen sounded stunned, and soon he understood what Chen Shanshan meant. He was surprised, "Sister Shanshan, are you saying ...... that many people will die?"

The words have not finished, only to hear a miserable scream. Fu Wen Sheng looked up, only to see a young man step into the fourth grid, instantly triggering the punishment of the chocolate bean ocean. The Chocolate Bean, which had just been calm, suddenly surged out into a three-meter-high giant wave, which lapped down and ruthlessly smashed onto the man's body. The latter didn't even look away before thousands of chocolate beans smashed onto his body, drowning him in the ocean of chocolate beans.

In a heartfelt tone, Santa smiled and said, "This poor boy, why did you steal my chocolate beans. If you had been more honest, maybe you wouldn't have died."

The crowd dared to be angry.

Chen Shanshan was calmly looking at the Santa Claus sitting in the ninth house when she caught a glimpse of a tall figure in her eyes. She turned her head and saw Mu Huixue, who was wearing a ponytail, walk up to the starting point, bend down and start pressing her legs. She did some warm-up maneuvers, and the rest of the group looked at her in amazement, just thinking she was being redundant.

Chen Shanshan, however, knew that among their group of players, the one with the strongest physical ability was the black-clothed woman in front of her who was doing high leg lifts to warm up.

After a full set of exercises, Mu Huixue squatted on the ground and pressed her hands to the ground in a starting position.

"Ah yes, it seems like you have to throw the dice first, into the grid you want?"

With a slight flick of the wrist, a white dice slid through the air in a beautiful arc and landed in the first room. In the next second, black lightning followed, and the dice was steadily caught by a pair of hands just before it hit the ground. When the crowd could see it again, she had already returned to the starting point.

Still in the same starting position as earlier, even though many players had already played through the first two frames and these two frames posed no threat to her, she didn't take it lightly.

Mu Huixue hooked up his lips and threw his right hand, the dice falling into the second frame.

Then came the third, fourth, and fifth ...... sixth frames.

Her movements were like flowing water, there were no unnecessary movements, just a simple toe-tap and fly into the next room. There were penalties triggered in between, but before those raging chocolate beans could touch the corner of her coat, she had already flown into the next room.

Finally, Mu Huixue fell into the sixth room.

Mu Huixue turned his head to Santa and said, "You really can't pick another group of players?"

Santa nodded, "Of course not, my child, or what would be the point of grouping."

Mu Huixue smiled regretfully and raised her finger, "I'll take her then."

Chen Shanshan frowned as Mu Huixue waved at her and unfurled a smile.
