Abyss Game: I am covered with cheats

"Excellent! Now, our last participant has concluded their part. I wonder if any of the audience anticipated this scene?"

A host stood on the stage, holding a microphone, stirring up the atmosphere with an excited tone. Unfortunately, the applause from the audience was sparse, as if no one was clapping at all.

This was a theater.

A theater that looked glamorous but was decaying inside.

The outside of the theater was pitch black, but one could vaguely make out that it wasn't located among the stars. There were city-like buildings around, but no lights were on, so the surroundings were unclear.

This theater had a resounding name, named after the city it was in.

It was called "Qingcheng Theater."

The theater wasn't large, feeling like it could only accommodate a few hundred people. But at this moment, it was as if the theater's space was distorted, actually accommodating nearly tens of thousands of spectators.

All the spectators were sitting in the audience, watching the screen in the center of the theater.

On it, the scene of Xu Tong walking towards the Bone Stairway was being displayed.

And these spectators were all participants in this nationwide instance gambling game.

And at this moment, they were all silent.

Because the situation they least wanted to see had happened.

The last player remaining was still Xu Tong.

Xu Tong was a very special person. He could participate in the gambling game as an individual or as a representative of the Outer Gods.

This person was a variable that most beings didn't want to see.

In one of the VIP audience boxes, a knock sounded.

The Space Dominator, sitting in the box, didn't even turn his head, raising his voice, "Come in."

Creak—

The door opened, and the cold-faced Internal Affairs Officer walked into the box with a smiling Diplomat.

"I said it before, the one who lasts until the end will definitely be Lord Master."

Hearing the Internal Affairs Officer's words, the Space Dominator only slightly raised his slender, seemingly powerless arm, "I did believe that myself, but do you think I don't know what you've done?

"You directly let Xu Tong skip the first round of trials and directly enter the Border of Chaos, and even took the opportunity to retrieve a part of the Outer Gods' organs.

"This kind of unreasonable arrangement is essentially cheating on the part of you Outer Gods, isn't it? This is very unfair to the other participants in the gambling game."

The Space Dominator said calmly, "I did believe that Xu Tong could safely pass the first stage, but rules are rules. Your blatant violation of the rules is a disrespect to the other two forces."

However, the Space Dominator didn't see the expression he wanted to see on the faces of the Internal Affairs Officer and the Diplomat.

In the eyes of the Internal Affairs Officer and the Diplomat, there was only some confusion.

"What cheating? We are the ones who abide by the rules and have never broken them.

"We thought that Lord Master skipping the first round was your arrangement."

Space Dominator: ?

Internal Affairs Officer: ?

Diplomat: "So...it actually has nothing to do with us?"

After listening to the Internal Affairs Officer's words, the Space Dominator's tone suddenly changed somewhat, "If it wasn't you...the only guy I can think of who could influence the Abyss World is only one.

"What does this guy want to do?"

The Space Dominator's words contained things that the Internal Affairs Officer and the Diplomat couldn't understand, but for the Space Dominator's tone to change, it certainly wasn't a simple character.

"So, what's the situation now?"

The Space Dominator pondered for a moment, then gave his answer.

"Since it's already at this point, then we can only let the instance continue.

"I'm also very curious about what this guy wants to do."

The Space Dominator's mind already conjured up Dibagg's eerie smiling face, and his slightly plagiaristic attire.

"As the only existence besides Xu Tong who can make the Abyss World, the Ancient Gods, and the Outer Gods feel unpredictable, this guy's actions have indeed aroused my full curiosity."

——

On the other side of the audience.

Zhen Yizhen was sitting in the most ordinary seat in the audience, surrounded by a crowd of people, some of whom didn't look very human.

Looking at the scene in front of him, just as Zhen Yizhen was about to cross his legs, someone suddenly sat down next to him.

Zhen Yizhen turned his head to look at the person who sat down next to him, raising his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "With your status, there's no need for you to sit in a place like this, right?"

Michael, who had lost miserably to Xu Tong in the casino, sat down next to Zhen Yizhen, holding a bucket of popcorn, and said, "Since I have this status, I can sit wherever I want.

"Don't think that just because you're an adjudicator of the Arbitration Court, I can't sit on your head outside of the gambling game."

Zhen Yizhen was silent for a moment, and asked, "Then what do you want to do?"

Michael rummaged through his pockets and put something into Zhen Yizhen's hand, "Help me deliver this thing to someone."

Zhen Yizhen narrowed his eyes, first looking at the thing Michael gave him, "This...seems to be a containment object from the SKPI Containment Center, right? As soon as the Containment Center collapses, you guys start dividing the spoils, huh?"

Michael smiled slightly and said, "How can you call it dividing the spoils? The SKPI Containment Center made a significant contribution to killing the Outer Gods. Now that the SKPI Containment Center has collapsed, we're just helping them clean up the mess and contain those dangerous containment objects."

Zhen Yizhen scratched his head, not refusing, "Since you want me to help you smuggle things, what's the reward? You can't expect me to make a trip empty-handed, right?"

Michael didn't speak, just silently handed the popcorn bucket to Zhen Yizhen.

"Take it."

Zhen Yizhen: "? Are you saying that you plan to bribe me with a bucket of popcorn?"

Michael said with confidence: "Can't I? Although humans aren't very good at other things, the food they invent tastes good, especially this popcorn. I especially like it, so I'm giving it to you. Otherwise, would I use this thing to bribe you?"

Zhen Yizhen: "All you guys from Heaven, without exception, are brainless...I really don't know what the criteria were when God appointed you."

Michael: "Maybe it's because God likes me. After all, you can't hide it when you like someone."

Zhen Yizhen: "I'm not going to take that kind of rotten joke learned from humans."

Michael: "That's a pity."
