Chapter 846: Chapter 503: The Extraordinary’s Special Promotion Method (2)

Everyone cast their malicious gaze towards others.

Only Shen Sui was single-mindedly thinking about how to defeat the puppet in a duel.

In the face of life and death, the mobility of extraordinaries is unimaginable.

Thus, very quickly, attacks from the outside began.

Everyone set their sights on the person beside them.

There was only one goal: to become one of the last eight.

The second duel was nearing its end, and the duelist, seeing his life value nearing 0, finally couldn’t bear it and chose to act.

This was an extraordinary person from the world of superpowers.

He possessed strong telekinesis.

With death approaching, he didn’t care about any rules and recklessly attacked the puppet.

His telekinetic attack was realized in the duel realm.

However, the next moment, he was directly torn to pieces by an overwhelming force.

"Using other powers to attack opponents in a duel is a prohibited behavior." The puppet’s voice was very cold, "According to the rules, your life is revoked."

You see, this puppet is still quite polite, it informs you when it’s taking your life.

It’s just a pity that the dead can’t hear the reason the puppet killed him.

The appearance of the second death plunged everyone present into a tense atmosphere.

Only eight spots were available to proceed to the next round, yet there were still eleven people present.

This meant three people had to die to stop the puppet’s death game.

The fact that everyone was summoned by the puppet to participate in some duel game meant that the levels were about the same. As long as one survived the preliminaries, reaching the quarter-finals, who would win or lose in a proper duel was unknown.

But being picked by this puppet for the preliminary duel was undoubtedly fatal!

As a result, almost everyone reached an implicit consensus after weighing the pros and cons.

According to the experiences of the previous two participants, dueling with the puppet was a dead end.

If dueling against an evenly matched opponent, there might be a chance of winning.

Removing the remaining three duel spots as quickly as possible became the optimal solution for everyone present.

Given the choice, no one would leave life and death to random probability.

What if one became the next randomly chosen opponent? Wouldn’t they be killed by the puppet?

The puppet didn’t stop them from their big melee; it simply cleaned up the previous duel scene on its own.

Everyone was smart enough to know that this seemingly ugly puppet not only had outstanding dueling power, its true power could definitely kill anyone present.

This brief time during which the puppet cleaned up the scene became the moment for everyone to engage in a grand melee.

Everyone used the skills they had acquired throughout their lives.

In this place where extraordinary power can be pushed to the extreme, everyone’s power was at its peak.

Then something awkward happened.

After Vivian’s meticulous selection, everyone present not only had comparable dueling power, but even their extraordinary power was evenly matched.

For a while, not a single death occurred.

Seeing that the puppet’s cleaning work was nearing completion, ready to start the next duel’s random draw.

Almost simultaneously, the few extraordinary people who were most seriously injured in this big melee became everyone’s target. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Shen Sui was also slightly stunned at the sudden extraordinary melee.

Although such a situation occurred in his imagination, for this purpose he even designed mandatory duel options to prevent extraordinaires from using their powers to kill opponents outside the duel.

But he never expected they would start infighting even before the puppet announced this rule.

However, to give credit where it’s due, this grand melee was indeed entertaining.

Turns out, strangers really reach a tacit understanding because of their own interests; these people use numbers to bully without any hesitation.

The initially backstabbed unfortunate soul was the first to fall.

After being backstabbed, he was already heavily injured, and in the ensuing melee, he expended too much power, being suddenly swarmed he had no chance to resist, directly being forced into a deadly situation.

But this guy had a temper too.

Seeing that his life was nearing its end, he gritted his teeth and burned his vital essence, rushing towards the guy who first backstabbed him.

The opponent didn’t expect that this one at death’s door would unleash such astonishing power before dying, and was caught off guard, getting hugged.

"Next, it’s your turn!"

The unfortunate guy revealed a pleased smile, wasted no time and directly self-destructed.

The backstabber had no time to mount an effective counterattack, directly absorbing the full self-destruction damage, instantly turning from least injured to most injured.

When he awoke from the explosion’s daze, he found everyone’s gaze maliciously falling on him.

He immediately understood, he had become the next target of this group.

The backstabber was very decisive; anyone who figures out how to kill other contestants outside the duel to end the preliminaries early is no fool, he loudly threatened everyone: "Whoever moves first, I’ll target them for a self-destruction before I die! Everyone’s strength is about the same; do you dare to bet you can dodge my self-destruction?"

Under the backstabber’s threat, everyone hesitated briefly.

However, the puppet’s cleanup work was nearing completion.

As the duel music played again, everyone knew they had to act.

If they killed this person, after the next unfortunate person drawn died in a duel, there would only be eight left, according to the advancement requirement, the puppet wouldn’t need to conduct another duel.

The backstabber died.

Dead quickly and decisively.

Having suffered at his hands, everyone grew savvy, giving him no chance for mutual destruction, all using ranged attacks to take his life from afar.

With the deaths of two extraordinaires, the game count among those present quickly dropped to nine.

Only then did the puppet seem to suddenly realize, politely reminding: "Please do not harm others outside the duel, this is not the original intent of this duel game."

Indeed, if nearly everyone dies outside, how can the duel game continue?

If the duel game can’t proceed, how will I amuse myself?

Thus, the puppet leisurely explains the mandatory duel rule.

When someone is attacked by extraordinary power, they can initiate a mandatory duel; the puppet will automatically trace and find the assailant.

After that, both sides will be forced into a duel, and the winner will be decided there.

Of course, a mandatory duel isn’t part of the main event, so the loser won’t die, but will face certain penalties in the subsequent main event duel.

The penalties include roughly the following three items:

1. Initial life value halved;

2. First round soul points halved;

3. Initial hand changed to three.

The penalties last only one round.

However, since the loser of the main event duel will die, such penalties considerably increase the odds of their death, thus serving as effective deterrence.

Shen Sui thinks those two unlucky people probably cursed when the puppet slowly released the mandatory duel rule.

Why wasn’t the damn rule revealed earlier?

"Why wasn’t this rule explained beforehand?" Someone asked a similar question.

The puppet paused slightly, then replied leisurely: "Because this is more interesting."

"I am very curious about what human mutual slaughter would look like."

This indifferent attitude made everyone feel a chill from the bottom of their heart.

This puppet seemed to consider everyone present as its playthings.

"Next, I will select the next duelist." The puppet’s stiff voice sounded again.

Everyone held their breath.

Yet after a few seconds, no one appeared in front of the puppet.

Shen Sui was initially bewildered too.

But he quickly realized, perhaps the puppet randomly chose him.

It’s just that the transmission power was negated by his passive.

This was somewhat awkward.
