He Definitely Wouldn't Play With Poop
"Scholar, your casting speed is astonishing. In my opinion, your current stats are likely the highest in the entire arena. Would you be willing to... help me eliminate the other troublesome participants?"
After demonstrating her absolute "Damage Immunity" mechanism, she began trying to recruit Su Luo into her camp.
"You can consider me an infinite shield. If it succeeds, and we meet again someday, I will repay you with a generous gift, and you will gain the friendship of a very fortunate person."
Although she is invincible, to maintain this invincibility, she will not switch her initial wand, not even for a moment, to avoid any accidents.
The price she paid for remaining immune to damage was that she voluntarily gave up powerful Spell, and movement Spells.
She really doesn't need these things.
However, if she and another person are left in the final Dungeon, and the other person is unable to eliminate her, the situation may fall into an awkward stalemate.
What she needs to do is eliminate the others by other means while ensuring she is immune to harm.
She thinks highly of the Scholar and is prepared to cooperate. Judging from his comments on the World Channel, he seems like a very good and rational person with a good reputation. He also seems very capable.
Anyone with a normal understanding knows the importance of befriending an exceptionally lucky person. She also clearly explained her situation and purpose, which the other party would definitely understand.
Just when she thought the Scholars would agree, or at least seriously consider it.
She saw the Scholar raise his wand again.
This time, however, the tip of the cane pointed to the empty space beside her.
"You just said 'please go ahead', didn't you?"
The next second, under Jiang Mengrui's slightly astonished gaze, hundreds of towering "mountains of excrement" exuding a strong aura, like a forest that grew out of thin air, instantly filled the space around her, completely surrounding her in the center.
Jiang Mengrui's smile froze, as she had no teleportation Spells.
"I'll satisfy you."
An eerie silence descended upon the cave, with only hundreds of freshly formed "mountains of excrement" Jingjing radiating an undeniable presence.
The brownish-yellow mountain almost completely surrounded Jiang Mengrui, leaving only a small space overhead, forming a veritable "dung cage".
With lightning speed, she froze the area nearby with Ice Cone to prevent it from becoming a food hazard.
Su Luo and Jiang Mengrui were both speechless.
Su Luo never expected to play with shit, Jiang Mengrui never expected Su Luo to play with shit in such an unconventional way.
The gentle smile on Jiang Mengrui's face had completely disappeared, replaced by a complex expression that mixed bewilderment, helplessness, and a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
She truly dared not make a move. Any unnecessary action could cause her head to come into close contact with the sticky "mountain" around her.
"Scholar, is this the answer you've given...? Is this how you express your unwillingness to cooperate?"
The sound traveled over the thick mountain of excrement, seemingly imbued with fragrance.
"Cooperation presupposes mutual checks and balances, or at least shared interests. But you, Ms. Jiang, the 'cooperation' you offer is more like a one-sided employment—you use your Damage Immunity to stay out of it, while I have to bear all the risks to eliminate other competitors who might threaten you. In the end, you sit back and get the special privileges. For me, the benefits are disproportionate to the risks."
Su Luo replied politely, after all, it's customary to observe proper etiquette before proceeding with the funeral.
Even so, you can only trap me here at best; you still can't truly eliminate me and obtain the special privileges you desire.
Despite saying that, Jiang Mengrui was still thinking frantically.
She didn't think Scholars would confine her so purely.
Perhaps her words just now offended the other party?
Impossible; Scholars don't seem to act impulsively.
There must be a deeper meaning behind their actions.
Was it to provoke her and make her make a mistake?
Is there... a way to break her Damage Immunity?
Su Luo, who was outside, confirmed Jiang Mengrui's location and gave her a larger portion of food, ensuring that Jiang Mengrui wouldn't even be able to crawl out.
"Don't move around here, I'll be right back."
Su Luo combined the [Light Magic Bullet] and the [Teleport Bullet], instantly arriving at the food elimination area, and began selecting Spells from her wand.
He had already figured out some way to break Jiang Mengrui's Damage Immunity, but to be on the safe side, he decided to prepare a little longer.
They should keep Jiang Mengrui locked up so she wouldn't be lost later.
As for why a mountain of excrement was used instead of stones...
[Poop Mountain Summoning] is probably easier to control in terms of position, and other people won't be digging poop for fun... maybe?
"Scholar, Scholar! Su Luo!"
Faint shouts came from behind her. Su Luo wouldn't tolerate it. After sealing off the cave, she went straight down.
Su Luo is very busy, with a lot of things to research and learn. She doesn't want to participate in another Trait Dungeon; it would be best to obtain the trait directly in this Trait Dungeon.
Even if Forbidden Existence came, Su Luo would still have to test her skills against it.
Hello, friend.
"Hello."
As Su Luo stepped into an ancient building shop with a unique style and a somewhat opulent interior, a gentle yet magnetic voice greeted her.
"If you have a moment to spare, may I introduce you to our Lord, the one who dwells above all things, the one who is the beginning and the end of all things— the Great Heavenly Bright Vast True Lord?" the voice continued, its tone devout and fervent.
Su Luo pondered for a moment.
Has Faithful Survival broken through?
More than half an hour has passed since we first met that [Goddess of Luck] who is immune to damage.
Su Luo cleared out monsters along the way, and also eliminated a careless participant who failed to stack a shield for himself in time. She also collected quite a few special Spells.
After being combined, its attack, defense, and mobility capabilities have reached an exaggeratedly extreme level.
He originally intended to buy a more powerful wand from this shop located deep inside, as a final preparation for "dealing with" Jiang Mengrui when he returned. After all, the deeper into the shop, the more expensive and powerful the wands sold.
But unexpectedly, they ran into a charlatan.
"Each of us is born with 'dignity,' 'conscience,' and 'humanity,' but as insignificant beings, we ultimately need to rely on others; we must depend on our Lord to survive. And our Lord, with compassion and love for all beings, wishes to shower His boundless benevolence upon the world..."
A man dressed in a tattered classical robe, his face as pale as paper, slowly emerged. He held a magnificent wand in his hand, surrounded by numerous purple shields. His eyes were pure black, without any whites, as he slowly chanted the doctrines of his master.
Su Luo was now really finding it hard to keep up the act.
"Your master is quite a blend of Chinese and Western styles."
"That's natural."
Surprisingly, the man's tone suddenly changed. The previous feeling of devout preaching vanished instantly, replaced by a tone tinged with smugness and mockery. "This doctrine is something I 'borrowed' from the Bible of your world. How about it, not badly packaged, right? As for the name of the god, I just thought the words sounded nice and imposing."
Even more bizarrely, as his tone changed, his pure black eyes instantly transformed into a pristine white without any impurities.
The person in front of me, in the instant their eyes changed color, their entire demeanor became completely different.
Multiple Personality Disorder?
Su Luo pressed her forehead and said to the clueless man, "You are his 'master'?"
