God's Imitator-Chapter 411: End of the ’Lifting Game’

Yang Yuting had been somewhat distracted, but hearing this, she suddenly became alert.

"That's right, there's still this rule!"

This special rule had existed from the beginning. Some players had wanted to make use of this point, but under Fu Yujun's persuasion, both inner and outer field players had given up searching.

Because the judgment method was too vague and ethereal, serving no purpose other than destroying cooperation.

But now, as the game was about to end, this rule would ultimately still come into play.

According to the game rules, if this player survived until the end of the game, they would unlock 'super authority,' allowing them to bypass the Gallery's fundamental rules and directly decide the fate of one to two players (including but not limited to life and death).

But how exactly they would decide wasn't specified.

They might already be dead, if Jiao Hai or Liu Jie was the super authority player.

[The 'super authority player' of this game is: Chen Ran.]

[Now, you have two choices:]

[One, select any surviving inner or outer field player and impose instant death punishment.]

[Two, impose instant death punishment on yourself and send any surviving inner or outer field player out of the Gallery to return to the real world.]

[Now, you may communicate with the outer field player in your group and hear her suggestions.]

[Please make a decision within 5 minutes, otherwise you will also suffer instant death punishment.]

Yang Yuting's eyes widened. She could hardly believe her ears.

"Send a player back to the real world?

"Is this a joke? There's actually such a mechanism in the Gallery?

"No wonder it's called 'super authority.' This already touches the Gallery's fundamental rules, doesn't it?

"But to accomplish this requires one's own death as the price. Who would choose this option?

"No wonder the rules say it can bypass the Gallery's fundamental rules and directly decide the fate of one to two players (including but not limited to life and death).

"In the Gallery, only 'returning to the real world' is higher than life and death, right..."

Yang Yuting tried to put herself in Chen Ran's position and felt this matter was filled with dark humor.

She had originally guessed that the criterion for judging the 'super authority player' was that parents and children deep down had no guilt toward each other, a condition that could only be achieved by happy, fulfilled families.

For example, Fu Yujun and Fu Chen, Zhou Guifen and Shen Xing.

But now it seemed this wasn't the case.

She had fallen into a misconception.

Because the more parents were like Fu Yujun and Zhou Guifen, the easier it was for them to feel guilt toward their children, even over matters that outsiders wouldn't consider worthy of guilt.

Only in a situation like Wu Xiaomei and Chen Ran would there be absolutely no guilt between them. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Chen Ran hadn't done anything wrong, so naturally she had no need to feel guilty toward Wu Xiaomei.

And Wu Xiaomei always insisted she was completely right. Even if her behavior caused Chen Ran deep harm, she believed it was something that had to be done, so she similarly had no guilt whatsoever.

Only this kind of obsessive state met the conditions stated in the rules.

But now, if Yang Yuting had to make a choice in Chen Ran's position, she would really find it difficult to decide.

Because there were only two choices: either kill one person, or commit suicide and send one person away.

There were no other options.

If Jiao Hai were still alive, perhaps killing Jiao Hai would be an option.

But now, among the surviving inner and outer field players, there were only Chen Ran, Peng Xinyuan, Fu Chen, Shen Xing, Wu Xiaomei, Fu Yujun, and Zhou Guifen.

After the cruel game and trial, none of them deserved death.

If she had to choose, she could probably only choose Fu Yujun, since his crime was considered the most serious among the surviving players.

Perhaps Wu Xiaomei's harm to Chen Ran was indeed deep, but Yang Yuting still felt that Chen Ran could never actively kill her own mother, no matter how much she hated her.

Communication between the inner and outer fields had been established. Wu Xiaomei could now speak with Chen Ran.

"Ranran, it's okay. You can choose anyone. In this godforsaken place, who is absolutely innocent?

"As long as you win, that's all that matters.

"Ranran, you performed very well. You didn't disappoint Mom. Mom also performed well, didn't she?

"Mom will always be your strongest support.

"I'm in Community 4. Are you doing well in Community 12?

"I heard that Community 12 seems quite bad, with a high death rate, and recently a bad person joined.

"Community 4 is very good. Two young ladies about your age look after me. This time I couldn't bring you to Community 4, but I'll tell them. Next time, next time we meet in a game, I'll definitely get you into Community 4. That way we mother and daughter can reunite again...

"Ranran, Mom really has so much to say to you..."

Chen Ran looked at Wu Xiaomei's face on the big screen, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

"Mom."

Wu Xiaomei quickly said, "Ranran, we can talk about anything later. Time is running out. Just randomly pick someone first."

Chen Ran shook her head, "I'm sorry, but I really have had enough.

"Why, even in this godforsaken place, has heaven still not let me go?

"Wu Xiaomei, every time I recall what happened before, I want to kill you more than once, but I can't do it. No matter who you are now, you have the exact same face as my mother. I really can't do it...

"If you're living reasonably well here, then keep on living. Please, I'm begging you, but this time please don't come looking for me again..."

Chen Ran's bracelet pierced her skin, and a black line rapidly spread upward.

She had already made her choice in her heart.

This scene stunned all the players. Even when Chen Ran collapsed, they still hadn't recovered from their shock.

Wu Xiaomei suddenly lunged toward the big screen, "No! Ranran! No!! Why on earth did you..."

But immediately after, she collapsed in front of the big screen, lifeless.

The bracelet on Wu Xiaomei's wrist simultaneously pierced her skin and injected lethal poison.

As an inner field player, Chen Ran didn't know the rules for outer field players, nor did she know about the existence of the 'live and die together' contract.

...

This sudden turn of events also stunned Yang Yuting.

She never could have imagined that Chen Ran would choose the second option.

Clearly, Chen Ran's true intention wasn't to sacrifice herself to send a certain player back to the real world.

She just wanted to escape from Wu Xiaomei. For this, she was willing to pay any price.

Because as long as she lived one day in the New World, Wu Xiaomei would find ways to pull her into Community 4, or go to Community 12 herself.

This situation would only end after one of them died.

But Chen Ran could never bring herself to kill Wu Xiaomei, and she couldn't even genuinely hope for Wu Xiaomei to accidentally die in other games.

Perhaps after coming to the New World, Chen Ran had also felt fortunate, thinking she had finally escaped from Wu Xiaomei and no longer had to endure that kind of pain and torment.

But when she saw Wu Xiaomei again in the New World, her mental state collapsed.

So in the end, the only way to escape was to kill herself.

[Now announcing the final survival results for inner field players.]

[Peng Xinyuan, Fu Chen, and Shen Xing survived.]

[Spectators who bet on the above three players and bet on no more than 1 deceased player will become 'winners.']

[Otherwise, they will become 'losers.']

['Winners' will divide all chips bet by 'losers' according to game rules.]

[Spectators who did not bet on any of the above players will have all visa time deducted and divided among all surviving 'inner field players' and 'outer field players.']

[When the total visa time deducted is less than 50,000, an additional 50,000 will be deducted and incur debt. After returning to the community, the debt must be cleared within 48 hours, otherwise instant death punishment will be imposed.]

[Game over.]
