Chapter 980 Challenging the Rules
"Even the extreme main god can't damage it..."
After Gu Ding heard these words, his face changed drastically, and he quickly turned around and looked behind him.
But there is no retreat behind him, it has long been blocked by metal cages.
Guding was completely in a semicircular cage at this time, and the front was separated by a fence made of the same material as the cage. The other side of the fence was pitch black, as if isolated by some regular force, and Gu Ding couldn't see anything at all.
"If you want to escape, it's not impossible..."
At this time, at the position of the cage fence in front, one hand was held on the fence. Then, the blackness on the other side of the fence finally receded slowly, revealing the scene on the other side of the fence.
Only then did Guding realize that what he was in was actually a circular cage, but a fence in the center cut the entire circular cage into two semicircles.
I am on one side of the semicircle, and on the other side of the fence, there is another person who is also in the cage.
Gu Ding looked at the other party silently, and the other party turned out to be a human being.
The man looked about the same age as Gu Ding, and he looked handsome, but his hair was a little messy and his clothes were a little dirty. His hands and feet were bound with black shackles, and the other end of the shackles was locked to the post of the cage behind him. The chain seemed to be only as thick as a thumb, but Gu Ding knew that the chains were probably made of the same material as the cage. Seeing that the other party is honestly not struggling, one knows that it is probably impossible to break free from the shackles.
He held onto the bars of the prison with one hand, and the shackles on his hands were stretched to the limit, while the length of the shackles on his feet was the same as those on his hands. Obviously, even without the existence of this fence, he would not be able to cross the boundary of that fence.
"You're the one who's been spying on me!"
After looking at him for a while, Guding's gaze finally returned to his face. The moment he looked at the other person, Guding's pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly knew the other person's identity.
"That's right, it's me." The other party admitted his identity frankly, "Young man. I don't know whether you are lucky or unlucky to find this place."
"You just said that you have a way to leave?"
When Gu Ding asked this question. But he looked at the other party with doubts in his eyes. Looking at the other party's current state, if he can really leave, he can't take the initiative to stay. And even if the other party really has a way, I'm afraid they won't provide it for free.
"Of course there is a way,
But after you're sure you don't want to know where this is. Do you want to make another decision? "The corners of the manacled youth's mouth slightly raised, his eyes carried the power to understand people's hearts.
"Okay, then tell me, what exactly is this place?" Gu Ding narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the other party. After a while, he asked this question.
"This is a trial point of the King's Road. There are three other similar trial points in the main plane, but the assessment content of each trial point is completely different." The shackled youth explained with a smile.
"What is the road of the king?!" This term has never been heard before. Let Guding frowned slightly.
"Above the main god is the lord, you know this?" The man in shackles was a little stunned when he heard this question, but he seemed to remember that Gu Ding came from a higher plane and didn't understand a lot of common sense about the main plane. Only then had no choice but to explain. "Above the lord is the king!"
"The so-called king's road is the road to the king. If a person can complete the king's road, it means that this person has the potential to become a king! However, since the birth of the main plane, it is impossible to complete the king's road. There are very few people. The battle for the lord is already extremely dangerous, let alone the king. Those who can complete the road of the king and then grow up alive have been born on the main plane since the birth of the main plane. In the past of the endless era, there have only been ten Three people."
"I understand that this so-called trial point is only equivalent to the preliminary competition on the road to the king. Only if you win the preliminary competition can you get the place on the road to the king." Gu Ding listened to the other party's explanation. Get it right away. He didn't expect that although this place seemed extremely dangerous, it was actually a land of great opportunities.
"Since this is the case, what is the assessment content of this trial point?" Gu Ding continued to ask.
"The content of the assessment is a battle between you and me. As long as you can win, you can get a place on the road to the king." The shackled youth raised his mouth again when he said this.
"What if you are the winner?" Gu Ding asked.
"If I am the winner, I will be free. And you, as the loser, will replace me and become the new gatekeeper here, waiting for the next challenger to arrive." The shackled youth couldn't help sticking out his tongue licked his lips.
"Can I understand that in order to gain freedom, you can't kill me?" Guding heard the favorable conditions from the other party's words.
"Quack...you are a little clever." Hearing what Gu Ding said, the shackled youth laughed again, "But if I were a lunatic, I might give up my freedom and choose the hard-won killing. And people have been imprisoned for a long time It's easy to become a madman, isn't it?"
"So, when necessary, you may still choose to kill me, even if the price is loss of freedom." Guding understood what the other party said, but at the same time he was sure that the other party would not choose to kill easily Own.
"Aside from winning you, is there any other way for me to get out of this cage?" Gu Ding asked again after being silent for a moment.
"Hey... I can understand that you are timid before fighting?" There was a hint of provocation in the manacled youth's words.
"Answer my question." Gu Ding ignored the other party's provocation, but looked at the other party quietly.
"There is indeed an extremely simple way to get you out of this cage." The shackled youth narrowed his eyes slightly, "That is to admit defeat to me before this fence is opened!"
Hearing this sentence, Gu Ding laughed, "You now know how to guide me with wrong information? It's a pity that the information you gave is completely contradictory to the one you gave before! I admit defeat, don't I Being directly called the loser will replace you as the gatekeeper here, and you will be truly free!"
"I can only say that I will not give you wrong information. Believe it or not, or how you understand it, this is your own business, and it has nothing to do with me." The shackled youth smiled wryly and shook his head.
Hearing this, Gu Ding narrowed his eyes again, and after a long while, two sharp lights shot out of his eyes, "I understand, you are explaining the rules of the game to me now, not because you are willing to explain to me. It's because Subject to certain restrictions, had to explain to me..."
Hearing this, the manacled youth's face changed slightly, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he held back after all, and did not speak again.
"Okay, since that's the case, then tell me, why would the result be different if I directly admit defeat and defeat?" Gu Ding continued to ask, and he also vaguely guessed that due to the restrictions of the rules, the other party had to make a response to the question he raised. answer.
"That's because the battle between you and me hasn't started yet. Once the battle starts, you will have the same result as admitting defeat or defeat." Although the shackled youth was full of reluctance, he still gave this answer.
"The battle didn't start..." Gu Ding fell into deep thought again.
"Hey, you have a lot of questions. Have you finished asking?" The shackled youth waited for a while, but soon became a little impatient.
Gu Ding looked up at the other party. He stared at the shackled youth for a while, and then slowly raised the corner of his mouth, "Thank you for your reminder, I understand. The battle hasn't started yet, the reason is on me, you can't take the initiative to start the battle! Tell me, what is the condition for the battle to start?!"
Hearing Guding's words, the shackled young man's face changed drastically, but he still reluctantly gave the answer to this question, "The condition for the battle to start is that both sides understand the rules of the battle! If there is one party, there is still a need for the rules of the battle. Doubt, the battle cannot begin."
"I understand. The so-called understanding of the rules of the battle actually depends on how much information the questioner can actively obtain. If the questioner thinks he understands all the rules of the game and stops asking questions, the battle will also start. Am I right? "Guding smiled and looked at the shackled youth.
"That's right..." The shackled youth turned his face to the side. He really didn't expect Guding to be so difficult.
"If I admit defeat now, besides losing the qualification to challenge the Road of the King, will there be any other price?" Gu Ding is more concerned about this issue.
"The number of people before the challenge, in addition to permanently losing the qualification to challenge the Road of the King, you must also sign a contract with the manager of this trial point before you can leave." Seeing Gu Ding, the shackled youth wanted to continue asking, he I didn't bother to listen, and continued, "I don't know what kind of contract needs to be signed, but I know there must be a big price. Also, permanently losing the qualification to challenge the King's Road also means that you will never be able to become a king! "
"I understand!" Gu Ding raised his chin when he heard this, and after a while, he raised his head again and asked the shackled young man, "By the way, what kind of fighting strength are you?"
"This is not the scope of the rules of the game. I can choose not to tell you." Hearing this question, the young man in shackles raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Ding. Scared, and then directly choose to admit defeat, that is too boring."
"Stop talking nonsense, the aggressive method is useless to me, just say it!" Gu Ding was unmoved.
"My uncle is a holy master!" The shackled youth sneered.
"Holy Lord?!" Gu Ding frowned slightly, he had never heard of this level of combat power.
"That's right, you're just a bumpkin from a higher plane, and you only know that saints are above Shura. But you don't know that above saints, there is a holy master level, and above that, there is a holy king level! The fighting strength of the disciple level is comparable to that of ordinary median gods, and the holy master level is a notch stronger than the saint level. It has the combat power to slaughter ordinary median gods. As for the holy king level, it is even more extraordinary, that is Comparable to the powerhouse of the top median Lord God!"
"It turns out that above the saints, there is the master level..." Gu Ding originally thought that the saint level was strong and weak, but he didn't expect that there were levels above the saints.
"It's time to start the war now. Regarding the rules of the game, you have almost missed nothing in your questions." The shackled youth said helplessly.
"What's the rush, give me some more time and let me think about what else I should pay attention to." Gu Ding had a leisurely expression...
