165: A dilemma (Extra chapters added for positive reviews +2)

"Deathmatch!?"

This was not the first time these people had exclaimed in surprise; they had originally thought that the content of the 'Great Adventure' was also fixed.

However, this time, the requirement was to engage in a deathmatch with a Demon Contractor!

Chu Tian was also a bit slow to catch on, saying,

"No way? Everyone else gets off with a simple task, so why is it so dangerous for me?"

The Masked Man waved his hand, and the scene in the room rapidly changed, soon revealing a massive arena.

He glanced at Chu Tian, who seemed fearless, and slowly said,

"Of course, if you successfully survive the deathmatch, it will be considered as completing the punishment, and you will receive even more generous rewards.

Besides a 50,000 magic crystal credit limit, you will also obtain all the property of this Demon Contractor."

"Fifty thousand!"

A clamor immediately erupted among the surrounding people; a deathmatch could yield a reward of 50,000 magic crystal credits!

At this, even Gu Qinghan, who had been reluctant to kill these Demon Contractors, was tempted.

Chu Tian also seemed not to have expected such a generous reward and immediately leaped onto the stage.

Meanwhile, that Demon Contractor stared intently at the Masked Man, revealing a very unwilling expression.

The Masked Man smiled at her and slowly said,

"Go on stage. This doesn't violate the rules of the game. Kill him, and you can also survive."

The female Demon Contractor stopped speaking and turned to walk onto the stage.

The restraints on her and Chu Tian seemed to have been lifted, allowing them free movement.

However, with each step the female Professional took, the exposed skin on her body slowly changed.

Originally, her skin was fair, but by the time she reached the arena, her exposed skin had turned an unusual pink hue.

Gu Qinghan could now see her attributes; they were no longer a string of question marks but monster-like information:

"[Pink Demon Contractor: Level 21]"

"[Combat Power: 26400]"

Gu Qinghan frowned; this guy's combat power was so high!

There was no corresponding combat power ranking on the leaderboard, meaning she had been disqualified from entering the leaderboard.

However, because she had signed a contract with a demon, she had become far more powerful than normal Professionals.

In fact, if not for today's game, she would have gained considerable benefits from this auction.

Chu Tian's current combat power was over 18,000, ranking him in the thirties on the combat power list.

No matter how Gu Qinghan looked at it, he couldn't see any chance of victory for this guy.

This wasn't a sparring match; it was a deathmatch.

Of the two people on stage, only one would walk off alive!

As the person involved, Chu Tian did not focus all his attention on the Pink Demon Contractor in front of him.

He first looked at the crowd below, then specifically lingered on Gu Qinghan for a few seconds, suddenly raising both hands and saying,

"Everyone, look at me! I have an announcement!"

However, his opponent didn't give him a chance and charged directly at the unprepared Chu Tian.

Chu Tian clicked his tongue, then flung a golden light onto his opponent's body.

Immediately, the Pink Demon Professional dodged, but the object still drilled into her body.

She quickly checked her body, and after finding no injuries, she asked the Chu Tian in front of her,

"What did you do to me?"

Her voice had a strange echo, like a reverberation from a silent abyss.

But Chu Tian didn't answer her; he just tapped his own chest twice.

A crisp sound of chains breaking rang out, but no one saw any trace of chains.

And Gu Qinghan, who had been monitoring Chu Tian's combat power, suddenly noticed that this guy's combat power had directly soared to over 20,000!

And when he looked at the Pink Demon Contractor again, he suddenly realized that her combat power had already dropped to just over 20,000.

"Look at that woman's combat power, hasn't it dropped?"

"That's right, I saw her combat power was clearly over 26,000 just now, but now it's barely over 20,000?"

"Damn it, I was just looking at the leaderboard, and someone named Chu Tian's combat power suddenly soared a lot!"

The Professionals standing near the turntable immediately cried out in surprise; although their languages were different, they could understand each other's meaning.

At this moment, Chu Tian rotated his neck, looked at the Pink Demon Contractor in front of him, and sneered,

"You look like this and still ask me what I did to you?

Look in a mirror, disgusting!"

As his voice fell, golden light suddenly condensed into a golden chain in his hand, which he directly whipped towards his opponent.

The Demon Contractor was startled and quickly ran to the other side, only to see Chu Tian's other hand also fling out a golden chain.

The two chains were like two living long snakes, constantly attacking the Demon Contractor.

And the Demon Contractor, who had been so aggressive before, was now drenched in sweat and couldn't even find time to counterattack.

The battle lasted for more than a minute, and the Demon Contractor suddenly jumped off the stage.

Chu Tian's attacks were too bizarre; she even felt that some of her abilities couldn't be used.

But the moment she jumped off the arena, the Masked Man's voice rang out like a judgment:

"If you don't accept the punishment properly, you will receive an even harsher punishment..."

The next second, the Pink Demon Contractor's body stiffened and she fell to the ground.

A strong golden light projected from the mask, directly piercing through her body.

Soon, she became exactly like the previous Demon Contractor.

The Masked Man nodded at Chu Tian on the stage and said,

"The deathmatch is over. Rewards will be issued later. Continue the game."

Chu Tian was stunned, seemingly not expecting his battle to end so quickly.

However, he shook his hand, and the golden chains in his hand disappeared.

Someone bravely asked, "What did you want to announce just now?"

Chu Tian shook his head, not speaking, but simply returned to his seat honestly.

It seemed the battle ended too abruptly, making him lose interest in announcing something.

But although the battle was over, his combat power had not regressed.

Gu Qinghan glanced at him; the mysterious chains just now made him wary.

However, the battle was too short, and he hadn't gained any useful information.

The Masked Man's game continued, and in the next few rounds, another Demon Contractor appeared.

After the Demon Contractor, someone excitedly chose 'Great Adventure' and was indeed asked to engage in a deathmatch with the former.

But this time, that Demon Contractor's hands transformed into two ferocious beast claws, piercing through the Professional's body at a terrifying speed.

Without giving anyone a chance to react, this Professional's head was directly smashed several times.

With a final crisp sound, the Demon Contractor successfully smashed his opponent's head and turned to look at the Masked Man.

The Masked Man nodded, showing no emotional fluctuation, simply announcing that the game would continue.

The turntable spun once more, and Gu Qinghan watched as the pointer slowly stopped in front of him.

Gu Qinghan's expression instantly froze; he remembered the Masked Man clearly telling everyone that the 'Truth' option was only available once.

And he had already been asked a question once; this time, he had to choose 'Great Adventure'.

However, the demon mark on his arm was almost full.

According to what Captain Huang had said at the time, once it was full, he would be locked onto by a demon.

But if he didn't follow the Masked Man's instructions, he would be directly executed by the mask!
