The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle Chapter 73 73: Wisdom, Luck, Strength, and Cheating

"The twelve contestants have finished introducing themselves, so now I will announce... the show has officially begun!"

Nancy regained her composure, her voice echoing through the venue, the shocking music mixed with so indescribable weirdness and shrieks making the audience seem excited as well.

"As everyone knows!"

"In 'Love, Death, Super Player,' to truly beco a winner, intelligence, luck, and strength are all indispensable!"

She gestured broadly,

"And now, let's move on to the random the selection."

Above the huge round table was a lottery machine, spinning at high speed...

"Let's see what the first the the contestants will face is..." Nancy snapped her fingers, and three identical patterns appeared on the lottery machine, a stick figure with a question mark above its head, chopped in two.

At that mont of confirmation, the lottery machine flickered slightly, emitting the sound effect of a completed draw.

Nancy's tone drew out a long sound, with a touch of awe, "Ohhh, it's the Death Choice!"

"This the purely depends on each person's luck; sotis a simple choice can cost you your life!"

Su Qi looked at the excited Nancy.

All he could say was,

This host knows how to produce a show.

"It seems that all contestants... will face quite a challenge in the first round!"

"Death Choice, a total of three stages... I wonder who will have the last laugh." Nancy's voice vibrated eardrums, and he cackled, "Let's get started!"

Boom!

Su Qi's eyes were fixed on the big round table in front of him, as if countless chanisms were operating inside, the small board in front of each person... collapsed, then rose again with a tray.

Inside the tray, there were two transparent cups of water.

"Luck," Nancy's voice leisurely reached everyone's ears, "is always a mysterious thing. So can beco one in a million lucky ones, while others are born unlucky; it seems life is not always fair."

Nancy's voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

"In front of you are two cups of liquid, one cup is just ordinary water, the other is a corrosive liquid that is deadly. A normal person would die on the spot with just one sip."

Nancy watched as each abnormality stared at the two cups of water, seemingly trying to discern a difference, squinting their eyes,

"Of course... you can try to distinguish them by observation, but I'm sorry to tell you that both cups are colorless and tasteless, with no difference in appearance whatsoever."

"This challenge relies solely on luck!"

?

Su Qi looked at the [?] above the two liquids.

Really?

Nancy naturally didn't know that there was soone in the crowd with a 'wallhang'.

He started speaking with a smile;

"Contestants, please make your choice within thirty seconds!"

"If you do not make a choice within the ti limit, you will be punished, and one of the cups will be randomly assigned to you."

No. 1 Butcher's eyes were cold as he stared at the two cups of water, he leaned in to sll them but still couldn't detect any difference.

No. 5 Paperman, wearing a wedding red robe, her paper face got very close, seemingly trying to spot sothing.

However.

It was Brother Hai Xing in his underpants, who was making faces, his eyes bloodshot as he beca more panicked, shouting, "I can't tell them apart, I really can't!"

"You could... drink both cups at once! Hee hee hee!" The Clown seed very curious about Brother Hai Xing, laughing wickedly with his mouth full of sharp teeth.

"Thank you, brother, you're such a good guy, heh!"

Brother Hai Xing actually picked up both cups and drank them all at once, thick smoke quickly appearing from his mouth, he continuously scread, "Pain pain pain pain!"

The entire body actually began to shrivel up, its face flushed red as if about to be pierced through by the Corrosive Liquid.

So abnormalities remained indifferent, while others appeared very cautious.

The power of the Corrosive Liquid was imnse!

So of them may not fear death, but they could also beco weakened.

However, the next mont.

"Pfft!"

A torrent of liquid gushed out from Brother Hai Xing's behind, and he let out a burp followed by a silly laugh: "Seems to be not bad."

The Clown's eerie laughter stiffened for a mont.

And Nancy didn't seem surprised by this.

Among the contestants present, so had flesh and blood, others had Undying Bodies... what could kill an ordinary person might not be effective against so.

"Host, I have a question!"

At this ti, Su Qi suddenly spoke up.

Nancy narrowed her eyes, sneering: "I'm not going to offer any external help, nor will I answer any questions that might give you hints."

"No, I just wanted to ask." Su Qi pointed to the person next to him wearing a pyramid-shaped tal hood: "How does it drink?"

Nancy: "....."

At that mont, a black tentacle resembling a tongue suddenly extended from the tal crevice of the pyramid head, directly choosing one of the cups and draining it.

Su Qi gave a thumbs-up in admiration: "Then that's all."

Nancy looked at Su Qi: "Haven't you made your choice yet? There are only ten seconds left. It's a ga of luck; any hesitation or delay is just pushing you towards misfortune. After all, luck... if you don't seize it, it will slip through your fingers."

Su Qi reached out and grasped the cup on his right, looking at the [?] information on it, he said: "I think this ga is indeed very good, fair and impartial to everyone, with only luck being considered."

He drained the cup in one gulp.

And the next mont.

Su Qi's face suddenly changed, and he clutched his throat in pain!

The abnormalities chuckled coldly.

Watch this unlucky creature, failing at the very first round...

Su Qi's pained expression vanished, showing no signs of corrosion, he let out a small cough and his complexion returned to normal, apologetically stating: "Sorry, just had a bit of a gulp that went down the wrong way."

Blocked your mother!

Nancy's forehead began to show lines of irritation, watching Su Qi putting the cup back in place, discontented: "It seems that contestant number nine is also quite lucky."

Out of twelve contestants, four were struck.

But none had died. If they had died from a cup of Corrosive Liquid, they wouldn't be worthy of sitting here. Clearly, so had hoarse voices and were gasping for breath.

The surrounding audience booed at the lack of deaths.

"Be patient, everyone." Nancy smiled faintly towards the audience: "This was just an appetizer. The second round of the death selection... is about to begin."

"In this round, you won't just rely on luck."

"Your experience and wisdom too!"

The center of the huge round table suddenly sank, revealing a dark hole, then after a long while... seven holographic figures slowly appeared.

"In this round, you will choose the one with the highest evil value from these seven people!"

Nancy smiled: "Of course, it's not a blind choice. Their words and actions are the criteria for your judgnt."

A little girl holding a doll and a book said demurely: "I love fairy tales the most."

A Butcher, holding a cleaver and covered in blood, croaked: "I am skilled at chopping at into pieces."

A man dressed in a suit and leather shoes: "What you love is your life...."
