The dust settled. Chen Junnan poked his head out to look and saw that the Earth-Snake, that old bastard, had actually held up the iron ball again at this moment.

“Impressive, old bastard.”

Chen Junnan endured the pain throughout his body and leaped forward, avoiding several spikes to stand on top of the iron ball.

The Earth-Snake only felt his hands struggling even more.

“You—what did you do?” He didn’t understand why the iron ball had fallen down again at this moment.

“Nothing much, old bastard. You hold it up first. We’re preparing to kill you.”

“Kill me…?” The Earth-Snake gritted his teeth tightly. “Don’t you understand yet? Kid, this thing can’t kill me!!”

“Oh really?” Chen Junnan stood up and jumped on the massive iron ball. “I remember your game doesn’t have a time limit, right? Then I’ll just keep playing trampoline here and see how long your old arms and legs can hold out.”

“You motherfucker…” The Earth-Snake looked at the current situation. “You probably don’t know… I still have a trump card. Even if you keep bouncing here, I absolutely won’t die!!”

“Trump card, huh? Come on, show me.” After Chen Junnan finished speaking, he kicked downward on the iron ball with his foot. “Let me see what other hidden talents you have.”

The Earth-Snake gradually felt his hands becoming somewhat sore.

Blocking this massive iron ball for a moment or three wasn’t difficult for an “Earth-level,” but if he had to keep holding it up, he would inevitably exhaust himself to death.

The Earth-Snake waited quietly for a while and felt something was wrong. In order to kill participants with absolute accuracy, he would maintain the equipment every single time. But why hadn’t the iron ball risen after all this time?

Due to his limited field of vision, he had no idea that the chain fastening the iron ball had already broken.

“Fuck… what trick did you pull?” After thinking for a while, the Earth-Snake finally looked toward the display screen in the center of the field.

Hearing this, Chen Junnan laughed angrily, “We fucking bribed Xuanwu and are now preparing to kill you together!”

“What…?! I won’t die… This iron ball can never kill me…”

“Why can’t I kill you?!” Chen Junnan shouted. “You old lecher is about to be exhausted to death from holding up the iron ball right now!!”

“Impossible!!”

“How the fuck is it impossible?! You’re clearly about to die of exhaustion!” Chen Junnan gave the Earth-Snake no chance to think, standing on top of the iron ball and cursing frantically. “Are you going to die or not? Tell me if you’re fucking going to die!”

“I absolutely can’t possibly die!!” The Earth-Snake shouted as if he had lost his reason. “This iron ball absolutely can’t crush me to death!! I’ll survive!! After the game ends, it’ll be your turn!!”

“Bullshit!” Chen Junnan roared. “How can you survive while holding up the iron ball like this?”

“You think I’ll stupidly keep holding up the iron ball like this?!”

“Not hold the iron ball?! If you don’t hold the iron ball, will you lift dumbbells?! If you’ve got the guts, hold it right there. I’ll stand here and curse you to death!” Chen Junnan shouted. “Let’s see if your arms are tougher or my mouth is tougher!”

“In your dreams!!”

The Earth-Snake extended one foot and kicked forcefully at the iron pipe below the display screen, forcibly kicking the pipe in half.

“You think I don’t know what you’re thinking?!” The Earth-Snake laughed angrily. “You want to make me anxious… You want to make me unable to answer questions?! Too naive.”

Chen Junnan furrowed his brow, turned sideways to look at the iron pipe the Earth-Snake had kicked off below, and felt something was wrong.

This old lecher was indeed too calculating. He had kicked the pipe from the middle. Although the iron pipe was now broken, the wires were still connected to the screen, and the screen hadn’t gone dark.

“So there’s still this move?”

Taking advantage of the instant he let go, the Earth-Snake hurriedly held the screen in his arms, then crouched down and hid in the space below the iron ball.

CLANG—!!

With a loud crash, the iron ball hit the ground.

Now the Earth-Snake, with his nearly unscathed body, had hidden inside the iron ball like a turtle retreating into its shell covered in steel all over.

“Hahahaha!” The Earth-Snake’s muffled and distant voice came from inside the iron ball. “Come kill me!! Come on!!”

Seeing this, Chen Junnan breathed a long sigh of relief. His expression gradually calmed down, revealing a trace of a mischievous smile. “It wasn’t easy. You finally took the bait, motherfucker.”

He turned around, grabbed the iron chain above his head again, then used all his strength to climb onto the wall, took a deep breath, and shouted, “Brothers and sisters!! The game continues!! You can choose whatever you want for the next questions!!”

After shouting this sentence, Chen Junnan momentarily lost his strength, fell from the wall, and dropped straight into the room next to the Earth-Snake.

The instant he landed, he was like a fish dropped onto a cutting board, blood splattering everywhere.

Chen Junnan wailed on the ground a few times, then used all his body’s strength to painfully climb up. The entire room had been splattered red with his blood.

“What a shame. I still can’t lie down… There are still questions to answer.”

Yun Yao, Xu Qian, and Yan Zhichun all heard this loud crash and knew that Chen Junnan’s tactics had succeeded, but what should they do next?

Yan Zhichun was the first to guess Chen Junnan’s tactics, but this idea was somewhat bold. She wasn’t sure her guess was definitely correct.

This time it was Xu Qian’s turn as the first question, and everyone made their choices.

At this moment, Zhong Zhen had completely lost his hearing and could only press “No” once every thirty seconds. The Earth-Snake, as he said, could answer questions while hiding inside the iron ball. Everything seemed to have entered a deadlock.

But Chen Junnan sat weakly on the ground with a victorious smile on his face.

The first question ended. Although the iron chain was moving, there was no iron ball above.

Then came the second question, the third question…

All the way to the sixth question, a line of text appeared on the Earth-Snake’s screen.

“After reading the question, please use the phone to pass the question to the next person. This question is: Who can kill me?”

This short question made the Earth-Snake’s entire body tremble.

Yes, he had overlooked a crucial problem.

What should he do now?

“Earth-Snake, you old bastard…” Chen Junnan’s lips gradually lost their color, yet he still sat on the ground laughing loudly. “Hurry up and call Xu Qian!”

The Earth-Snake swallowed slightly, then pushed forcefully at the iron ball above his head.

The situation was bad… The current situation was really very bad.

He would violate the rules!

But how could an iron ball that had completely fallen to the ground be so easily moved? In this limited cramped space, the Earth-Snake couldn’t even straighten his waist. How could he possibly lift the iron ball?

Ten seconds passed. The Earth-Snake was already covered in anxious sweat, his earth-yellow eyes constantly trembling in the darkness.

“No… no, this is wrong… This is wrong…”

A gust of strong wind blew past. It seemed someone was standing at the door.

The Earth-Snake used all his body’s strength to stand up, pressed his back against the iron ball, then his legs burst forth with terrifying force. With a series of bone-cracking sounds, he only managed to pry up one corner of the iron ball.

“Earth-Snake, please relay the question,” Xuanwu said.

“Wait… wait for me a moment!!” The Earth-Snake shouted. “I—I’ll make the call right away…”

“Earth-Snake, please relay the question immediately.” Xuanwu’s icy voice passed through the wooden door into the room. The Earth-Snake’s sweat instantly soaked his back.

“Fuck… fuck!” The Earth-Snake shouted through gritted teeth. “Clearly just a woman who doesn’t wear clothes… What gives you the right to rush me?!”
