Beep beep beep!

Gorn suddenly blew the whistle hanging around his neck, then pointed at Caroline and said, "Red Team player over there, please don't say anything irrelevant to the competition during the competition, otherwise, I will give you a Yellow Card warning."

Gorn As a single dog, one of the things he hates most in his life is someone spreading dog food in front of him.

What?

Do you like to torture dogs when you have nothing to do?

We singles have provoked you and are going to be abused like this by you!

After hearing this, Chen Xing, Caroline and even the audience outside Dimensional Screen knew that he was talking nonsense and there was no such rule at all.

Only the stupid guy didn't react and said stupidly, "Don't let me talk about it outside the court? But it seems that this is not included in the rules of the game you just mentioned, right?"

Gorn turned to look at Chen Kong, looking at him as if he were an idiot.

"Are you the referee or am I the referee? If you talk too much, I will give you a Yellow Card immediately."

"Uh"

Faced with Gorn's angry threat, Chen Kong was speechless for a moment.

He wanted to refute, but he was also worried that Gorn would throw a Yellow Card at him.

After weighing the pros and cons, I finally chose silence.

After all, although he can rely on the effect of 'Mark of the Void', he is immune to the Yellow Card effect given to him by Gorn.

But considering the huge level gap between him and Gorn.

Erasing a Yellow Card might consume most or even all of his star energy.

Never do this casually.

Besides, rather than using Mark of the Void like this, he felt that it would be better for him to find the right opportunity to remove Isabelle's 'audience' identity, and then take him out of this weird Subspace.

Thinking of this, Chen Kong immediately subconsciously looked in the direction of Isabelle.

His little move was immediately caught by Gorn, who mocked him and said, "Stop looking, kid, you don't think I don't know what you are thinking, do you?"

"You must know that if you dare to use your special ability to eliminate Star Source Effect rashly, then without real coordinates, you may suddenly fall into the unknown Space-time Rift instead of returning to reality."

"So if I were you, I would never use my brain randomly. Instead, I would stand there obediently and prepare for the next game seriously."

Is he telling the truth, or is he just lying to me?

Because of Gorn's words, Chen Kong's brain suddenly became confused.

"What he said is true, Sora, because Subspace is like a boat floating on the sea. If you don't have the strength to swim back to the shore, it's better not to use that ability randomly."

"And if I'm not wrong, the Subspace we are currently in should be this guy's Star Tool effect, not Star Source ability."

"Otherwise, I don't think a mere Rank 2 Star Envoy would have the strength to independently develop Subspace."

Seeing that Caroline came out to disrupt the situation again, Gorn couldn't hold it in any longer.

"No, I guessed it right, I guessed it right, what's going on with you Catwoman? Tiantian guessed it right, you guessed it wrong, you're done, right?"

"You are so good at guessing, then why don't you guess what today's lottery prize is? Why do you keep guessing about my information!"

Breaking the defense, the current Gorn has completely broken the defense.

Because Caroline would be fine if he guessed wrong.

But every time she opened her mouth, she would hit the point accurately.

How could she be guessing? She was clearly reading based on her own information!

That's right, the Subspace in front of you is really not the Star Source ability of Gorn.

And he has a Star Tool effect, and the name of this Star Tool is - Rift Prism.

[Name: Rift Prism]

[Effect: After rotating the prism surface, it can cause local spatial changes, and project the scene in a certain area in reality one-to-one into Subspace between illusion and reality, forming a closed special space]

Although Caroline had already guessed a lot about his abilities.

But at this moment, Gorn is still not panicking.

After all, in the face of the absolute strength gap, all conspiracies and tricks are just nonsense.

He has the advantage in this round!

"Okay, I won't argue with you brats anymore. In this first game, Dodgeball, who are you going to send out first?"

Gorn walked to the center of the field and stretched out his right hand.

The next second, a shot put the size of a basketball suddenly appeared and hit the palm of his right hand hard.

Seeing this scene, Chen Kong was instantly dumbfounded.

No, your Dodgeball uses a shot put, and is it so big???

This ball is coming, let alone catching it. If you don't dodge, you are looking for death!

"Sora, this is the first scene. You go first."

"Huh? Me?"

Before Chen Kong could recover, Caroline's voice suddenly sounded from the side.

After hearing what Caroline said, Chen Kong immediately looked at him in shock, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

You must know that his small arms and legs are obviously not enough to be smashed by Gorn in one round!

Let him go up first. What's the difference between letting him go up and kill someone?

Fortunately, Chen Xing, who was on the side, also knew what his brother was going through and walked out immediately.

"Caroline, how about I go first?"

Facing Chen Xing's initiative to challenge, Caroline shook his head and said, "No, you already have a Yellow Card on you. Without knowing what hidden rules this guy has designed, it is the most irrational behavior for you to be the first one."

"But my brother"

"Don't worry, he'll be fine."

"Because if I guess correctly, the core of Star Source, the referee, is actually the word fairness."

"And in order to be fair, this guy must strictly abide by all the public rules he just said."

"The hidden rules it designs in secret must also be presented to us in some secret way, otherwise, such hidden rules will be too unfair."

Speaking of this, Caroline suddenly pointed to the clock hanging on the wall in the hall and said, "What do you think the meaning of this clock is?"

After being prompted by Caroline, Chen Xing immediately became thoughtful.

And Chen Kong said stupidly, "Is this the time for us to see this place?"

Caroline: "..."

What you said is good, but please don't say it next time because I'm tired of being stupid.

Fortunately, just because Chen Kong is stupid, does not mean that Chen Xing is also stupid.

After some simple thinking, Chen Xing quickly had the answer.

"You mean, there was a strict time limit on this game from the beginning?"

"Otherwise, in this Subspace, which has no concept of time, there is no need to give us an object that can observe time."

Caroline nodded, indicating that Chen Xing was right.

Then she turned her head and looked at Gorn, who was completely numb in the venue.

"Yes, this guy has been secretly inducing us from the very beginning."

"Because whether it's his extremely exaggerated performance at the beginning or his leisurely explanation of the rules later, he just wants us to subconsciously default to one thing, that is, he still has a lot of time and can play with us slowly."

"In this way, it can not only increase our sense of urgency, but also make us forget our original concept of time when we are nervous, making it difficult to discover this hidden rule."

"But he forgot one thing."

"What's the matter?"

This time it was neither Chen Kong nor Chen Xing who spoke, but Gorn not far away.

Because he was also curious about what he had forgotten.

"I forgot to mention what the conditions for a draw are."

"You must know that for any kind of competition, as long as there are enough games, with the support of a huge base, there will inevitably be a small probability event at some point."

"As long as this kind of low-probability event occurs once, in order to avoid a similar situation happening next time, it will inevitably be recorded and even evolve into one of the current competition rules."

"Although it is difficult for Dodgeball to have a draw in this best-of-three game, I have just deduced a variety of low-probability situations that may lead to a draw in a very short period of time."

"Even me, who is participating in Dodgeball for the first time, can figure out the existence of a draw. Then Gorn, as the referee and organizer, cannot possibly not know about it."

"If that's the case, why didn't he say it?"

"You have to know that in the face of the huge level gap, even if we know what the draw conditions are, it should be very difficult to achieve. There is no need for him to hide it. He can just write it in the open rules."

"After all, I speculate that the more rules he exposes, the greater advantage he will gain in this game."

"But he would rather give up his advantage and hide all the conditions for a draw. That can only mean one thing."

What does it mean?

Chen Kong, who was already a little confused, asked stupidly.

"It shows that among the different draw conditions, there is a condition that even if our level is lower than his, we still have a good chance to complete it."

"And of the conditions for a draw that I can think of, there is only one that fits our current situation."

"That is, under the conditions of the same number of wins in small rounds, the same number of Dodgeball hits, the same number of catches, and the same number of cards, we waited until the end of the game."

"But in this case, my sister is not."

Chen Kong was about to say something, but he suddenly reacted, then slapped his head suddenly, and suddenly realized. "Yeah, I forgot that I can release the Yellow Card state on my sister."

"In this case, as long as I choose to activate my ability, it means that my sister has never eaten Yellow Card."

"After all, this Yellow Card is just a Star Energy Technique, not a real rule."

Caroline nodded. "Well, so it's best if you go first."

"Because if you don't think about winning, but only think about a draw, then you can just focus on dodging without catching the ball."

"And among the three of us, if we just talk about the ability to dodge and hide, Chen Kong, you are actually better than us."

"Ok, Sister Caroline, I understand!"

"Leave this first scene to me."

After listening to Caroline's analysis.

Chen Kong, who was originally afraid of being the first to play, instantly became confident.

Just kidding, Chen Kong might not be able to fight him.

But when it comes to hiding and evading abilities, with Mark of the Void, among the 36 people in Star Project, no one can compete with him except the eldest brother Tiandao!

At this moment, Chen Kong had the illusion for the first time that he was not a drag, but a key player in the team.

At the same time, Dimensional Audiences of Station 13 listened to Caroline's analysis.

I also instantly understood how insidious this guy Gorn was, and couldn't help but complain.

'The referee personally ended the game, but he also designed so many hidden rules. This guy is really evil. '

'"Obviously very strong, but I am too insidious"'

'No wonder you can be Pond Slayer. This person is already in a fish pond full of fish, and you are so unethical as to pump water and add electricity to the grid. With this fishing method, if you don't catch the fish, who will catch the fish? '

Silence, at this time Gorn has been completely silenced by Caroline.

He has seen many Smart Machine, but this is the first time he has encountered Smart Machine who is as careful and quick-thinking as Caroline.

No, you are so powerful, so why are you acting as a bodyguard for Isabelle? Why don't you do it alone?

Fortunately, although Caroline revealed a lot of his trump cards, he still had a backup plan!

It's just that he must find a way to speed up the pace of the game, but he can't let Caroline talk any more.

Because if he kept talking, he was really afraid that her trump card would be completely pulled out by her.

Ever since, I saw that Chen Kong had put on Red Team Athlete's exclusive Dodgeball vest and walked into the venue.

Gorn immediately asked, "Come on, I will toss a coin now, and the person selected can get the right to attack at the beginning. Do you choose heads or tails?"

Chen Kong thought for a while and said, "Then I'll choose the front."

"Okay."

After finishing his words, Gorn immediately picked up the silver coin in his hand.

After a period of free fall, the silver coin finally stopped on the ground.

Seeing the result of the coin, Gorn immediately congratulated. "It's heads, you are very lucky."

But unlike Chen Kong who looked happy, Caroline looked at Gorn, who was still wearing Referee uniform, and immediately became thoughtful.

"Here, it's up to you to attack in this first round."

Gorn threw it casually, and the heavy lead ball drew a parabola in the air, and was caught by Chen Kong in a hurry.

But even this simple connection still made Chen Kong's arms feel sore.

One can imagine what would happen to him if he was hit by this ball.

Thinking of this, Chen Kong immediately swallowed his saliva, and a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

But he quickly changed his mind.

If you aim for a draw, you will most likely not be able to gain the right to attack again.

Therefore, this attack will most likely be his only offensive opportunity in the first game, and he must not waste it easily.

After all, if he can get lucky, he will not only have to avoid it, but after the time is up, he can even win a valuable victory for the team, increasing their chances of winning.

Thinking of this, Chen Kong immediately prepared to hit the ball hard at Gorn on the court.

But just when he was about to do so, Caroline not far away suddenly interrupted him.

"Wait a minute, Sora, don't vote yet, wait until he puts on the Athlete vest."

"Because if you vote now, you are attacking the referee for no reason. At the least, you will get a Yellow Card, and at the most, you will lose the game directly."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Kong immediately stopped his original movements and regained his balance with a stagger.

On the other side, Caroline was watching as Caroline discovered a conspiracy against him.

Gorn was completely angry.

After all, if Caroline hadn't reminded him quickly, there would have been this stupid guy in front of him.

Can he react to his trap?

He was caught early and lost the first game at the speed of light, okay!

Letting such a bastard escape a disaster, Gorn is a dissatisfied person.

"Damn, I must add another public rule next time, that is, non-competitors are not allowed to say a word!"

He cursed and looked at Caroline outside the venue, then walked to the sidelines very unhappy and took off his Referee uniform.

And as Referee uniform completely faded away, Gorn soon showed his upper body muscles in front of everyone, which were like human sculptures.

Maybe it was to vent his dissatisfaction, or maybe he wanted to give Chen Kong some strength.

Gorn was not in a hurry to put on the blue team Athlete vest on the ground. Instead, he made a standard bodybuilding action towards him provocatively, trying his best to show off his exaggerated muscles.

At the same time, the back muscles behind Gorn also continued to tighten in the process, and the interlaced muscle lines slowly showed a pattern similar to an 'evil ghost', which is commonly known as a ghost back in the outside world!

After demonstrating his strength, Gorn put on the exclusive Dodgeball vest of blue team Athlete with satisfaction, and said in a low voice, "Boy, don't think that you can sit back and relax because someone is helping you."

"Although I am Special Trait type, as a referee who participates in competitions in person all year round, my body that has been polished to perfection after countless hard trainings is definitely not comparable to your thin arms and legs."

"Because my purity is far above yours!"

"Come on, kid, show me your purity!"

Hearing this, Chen Kong took a deep breath and showed a determined look.

And his eyes and aura suddenly frightened Gorn.

So much so that Gorn immediately put on a serious defensive posture and was extremely vigilant in preparing for Chen Kong's next attack.

"Ha!"

Chen Kong shouted, and then threw the shot put in his hand with all his strength.

The standard of his posture is just like a textbook demonstration.

The only difference from his professional action was that the shot put thrown by Chen Kong flew out of an extremely low parabola.

He actually landed a full five meters away from Gorn.

Gululu——

After a slow and non-threatening roll, the shot put he threw finally stopped half a meter away from Gorn's feet.

Chen Xing, Caroline, Gorn, Dimensional Audience: "..."

Looking at the shot put on the ground, Gorn silently picked it up after being in a daze for a moment.

Then he looked up at Chen Kong, who was looking embarrassed not far away, and sighed deeply.

"I'm sorry, it's me who thinks highly of you. Others may be pretending, but you are really a talent."
