295: Rock, Paper, Scissors!

Wu Yang held the great saber in one hand, the fighting intent on his face growing stronger.

When the surrounding players saw this, their discussions significantly decreased.

They thought that this man, who had displayed a clear "crazy" label upon his arrival, was finally going to show his strength!

【You are now about to enter the true combat phase.】

【But you are extremely excited at this moment.】

【Because there are too many spectators around, you have never displayed your strength in front of so many people, so you decide——】

【A: Fight normally.】

【B: Fighting in front of so many people is bad, change to using rock-paper-scissors to determine the winner.】

【C: Propose a turn-based system, standing still and taking turns attacking once.】

【D: Change the combat method to competing to see who can fart the loudest.】

"......"

Lin Sheng silently chose B.

"Wait!"

Wu Yang suddenly shouted and plunged the great saber in his hand into the ground.

He looked around, watching as more and more players gathered, a hint of excited smile appearing on his face.

"Fighting in front of so many people is tantamount to advocating violence."

"I do not endorse such behavior."

"I suggest we change to using rock-paper-scissors to determine the winner!"

His voice was loud, resounding throughout the entire area.

"Rock-paper-scissors?"

Lin Sheng frowned, feigning confusion.

"Of course! We don't necessarily have to fight; a simple little game can resolve the conflict. It's only good for you, isn't it?"

"Heh, that works too."

Lin Sheng smiled.

Lin Moxuan didn't speak, only watching Wu Yang with wary eyes, wondering what trick he was trying to pull.

The Blue Star players, on the other hand, were greatly surprised.

"Huh? Rock-paper-scissors?"

"??"

"Is he really here to cause trouble? Or is he a friend of Great God Lin Sheng here to tease us?"

"Let's wait and see."

The turn of events was beyond the players' expectations; who could have imagined it would become like this?

But the players' adaptability was second to none.

They quickly began to look forward to the two of them playing the little game.

【Breakdown Value +400! (Ten times)】

After a while.

Lin Sheng and Wu Yang stood facing each other, the surrounding players consciously forming a circle, their eyes fixed on the two of them.

"Best of three?"

Wu Yang asked.

Lin Sheng nodded: "Okay, let's start."

They put their hands behind their backs, and the next moment, they simultaneously extended them.

Lin Sheng threw "rock", and Wu Yang threw "scissors".

"I won the first round."

Lin Sheng smiled slightly.

Wu Yang's face darkened.

He didn't speak, but silently withdrew his hand behind his back again.

Second round!

Lin Sheng still threw "rock", while Wu Yang this time threw "paper".

"Haha! I won the second round!"

Wu Yang shouted excitedly.

Lin Sheng didn't speak, just chuckled softly.

Third round.

Wu Yang threw "rock", while Lin Sheng threw "paper".

"You lost."

"Damn it!"

Wu Yang cursed, but due to luck, he couldn't do anything.

He could only wave the great saber in his hand powerlessly and angrily.

The players retreated one after another, afraid of being affected.

"I'm not convinced! Let's have another match!"

Wu Yang shouted, extending his hand again.

Lin Sheng was about to refuse, but the words caught in his throat. He paused, then changed his mind: "Okay. But this time... we have to add a bet."

"Alright! What do you want to bet!"

"I'll bet on your secret!"

This was just Lin Sheng's temporary idea.

But no matter what, exposing the Heavenly Mandated Protagonist's secret would definitely bring a lot of Breakdown Value.

"Okay! If I win, I won't ask for anything, just consider it a reward for you giving me a second chance."

"Good!"

The two agreed, and began playing rock-paper-scissors again.

This time.

Lin Sheng won two consecutive rounds, and the third round didn't even happen.

"Impossible!"

"My luck has always been extremely good, how did it become so bad in front of you!?"

Wu Yang held his head in his hands, unwilling to believe the reality before him.

"What's impossible about it..."

Lin Sheng spread his hands and shrugged: "Isn't it normal to win and lose? Speaking of which, stop dawdling. You have to do what you said, so many people are watching."

Honestly, during that process, he didn't play any tricks; he truly won against the other party purely by luck.

"This..."

Upon hearing that he had to reveal his secret, Wu Yang's face instantly froze.

However, being a Heavenly Mandated Protagonist after all, he wouldn't go back on his word.

After a heavy sigh, he still spoke truthfully: "All along, I have had two secrets that I haven't told the world."

"First, I carry a portion of Heavens Mandate Luck; I am a Son of Heaven's Mandate."

"Second, I joined the Celestial God Path not because I hated the Celestial Descendants, but because I was ordered by my Martial Uncle, the Most High Holy Great Heavenly Master, to secretly investigate the detailed information of this organization."

【Breakdown Value +300! (Ten times)】

He finished revealing his secrets.

These two secrets were indeed not very impressive; the Blue Star players didn't feel much shock or surprise.

It was just that the little soldiers with green robes and tiger faces next to Wu Yang were all stunned.

What!?

Their leader this time... is an undercover agent?

Then they......

The little soldiers with tiger-face masks looked at each other, but because they were all wearing masks, no one could see anyone else's expression.

For a moment, they didn't know what to do.

Should they go back? Or was this just the adult's joke?

【Breakdown Value +200! (Ten times)】

After Wu Yang finished speaking.

He couldn't help but turn his gaze back to Lin Sheng again, this time with a rather complex look.

【Narration: Wu Yang revealed his secret; he knew he could no longer return to the Celestial God Path.】

【The mission has failed.】

【His heart was extremely conflicted at this moment, hesitating whether to return to the Tianshan Mountains to beg for forgiveness from his Martial Uncle.】

"So you were an undercover agent."

Lin Sheng pretended not to see the Celestial God Path Miscellaneous fish (miscellaneous fodder) next to him, his gaze only on Wu Yang, showing a curious expression: "What do you plan to do now?"

"Go back to the mountains to beg for forgiveness? Or kill these little soldiers and continue to lurk in the Celestial God Path?"

【Lin Sheng's suggestion made your eyes light up.】

【You think, you can indeed——】

【A: Go back to the mountains to beg for forgiveness.】

【B: Kill the little soldiers and continue undercover.】

【C: Be upright and honest, and go back openly later.】

【D: Claim that it was a joke just now; how could a normal person expose their secret so casually?】

C.

"It's alright."

Wu Yang waved his hand, the conflicted look on his face suddenly disappearing.

It was replaced by a cheerful smile: "It's just a secret, everyone has them. My saying it out instead represents my openness and lack of ulterior motives."

"My undercover mission can naturally continue. Even if someone reports it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, an upright person is not afraid of a crooked shadow!"

Huh?

The players showed confused expressions.

"What does he mean? He's not afraid even though his undercover identity has been exposed?"

"What does this have to do with being upright? Isn't he going to run?"

"Heh, maybe he's looking for death."

"Is it possible that this isn't his secret at all? Just a joke."

"If it's a joke, then it makes sense."

"......"
