[Ruin-level Relic?]

Maryse paused for a moment.

Subconsciously, she felt an immense sense of relief due to the presence of this sound.

In fact, she had heard the voice of the Savior before, explaining many things, but at that time, the voice had no emotions at all, it was as if it were a predetermined sound.

Now things were completely different.

It must be him.

In a state of almost losing consciousness, Maryse didn’t ask for a solution to the current situation.

Instead, she asked a question that she felt was more important.

Sure enough, this day had come.

Bai Yan also knew in his heart that there were some things that could not be kept hidden forever, nor avoided forever.

[Hmm.]

So, Bai Yan openly admitted to the matter.

[Why?]

[Because, back in the beginning, the power I had was not strong enough… If I were to reveal my true self at that time, I would have been vulnerable to certain deceitful members of the Babel Tower taking advantage of me.]

Bai Yan honestly gave his answer.

In reality, he did indeed have this consideration.

Especially after the witch appeared, Bai Yan felt an even stronger need to keep his identity as the Savior a secret, unable to reveal it to the members of the Babel Tower.

Everyone admired and revered the mysterious Savior, but it would be difficult for them to accept if they were being controlled by a regular young man who had accidentally obtained immense power.

[Only then, it would be easier to control the Babel Tower… and make you obey my commands.]

Bai Yan didn’t hide his "evil" at all, without using softer words like "influence" or "obey", but instead directly used the word "obey".

Regarding Maryse.

Now he wants to be honest.

No matter what the consequences may be.

Maryse’s voice came over.

[From a logical standpoint, if I were you, perhaps I would have done something similar…]

[However…]

[Emotionally, I didn’t want to understand your deceit at all.]

[Was the you I once knew merely a mask you crafted, and what of your current honesty is genuine?]

[In your heart, am I just a helpful servant or a tool to be foolishly deceived?]

[If you treat everyone around you like props, how are you any different from Reno Augustus?]

Angry emotions were clearly conveyed, and Bai Yan was prepared long in advance.

Afterwards, Maryse remained silent.

Silence fell upon them.

[Maryse…]

Bai Yan felt uneasy inside.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

If Maryse continued to shout and even curse loudly, he might have considered it a trivial matter.

But her silence was something completely new to her.

The half-elf girl was completely different from Mu Ling and Kaluoer.

Mu Ling liked the person who had done this series of saving World and provided her with everything she has now, while Kaluoer liked the person who had saved her.

As for the identity and secrets of that person, they didn’t care at all.

Even if we were to put it in a bit harsher way, deep down, Mu Ling and Kaluoer never saw themselves as equals.

And they didn’t mind being seen as tools either.

But Maryse was completely different.

Her emotions were so intense!

She never hid her anger!

Especially detesting the deceit and betrayal of those around her!

They stayed in touch.

This force allowed Bai Yan to borrow the senses of the connector, naturally empathizing with them emotionally.

He could feel her pain and sadness, her heartbreak…even overshadowing her anger from being deceived.

Bai Yan also became sad because of her sadness, and felt upset because of her sorrow.

But now, it was definitely not the time to let emotions take over.

[Maryse, this is the power of the Ruin-level Relic ‘Candlelight in the Moon · Unextinguished Vitality,’ an endless reserve of dark energy, shielding your perception, and even disrupting my own perception, in fact.]

[First, you don’t need to go look for the dice, just wait for the dice to arrive… it will actually fly into the players’ hands automatically.]

[Furthermore, Amy recorded the contents of each square, while I controlled where the dice would land. You don’t need to do anything extra… just focus on throwing the dice well.]

With the current power of Bai Yan, he was unable to forcibly manipulate Maryse’s body.

If she…

Like in the first playthrough of "Babel Tower," just like Maryse in that simulated version, she would rather see World destroyed than…

Luckily, Bai Yan had overthought it.

Although there were no more answers, Maryse continued to follow his instructions.

Even she understood that she couldn’t let her emotions dictate her actions now.

Bai Yan fell into deep thought.

At this very moment, there was actually a very big problem – he could not fully control where the dice landed, only his own side.

Negative energy has the effect of "blocking and interfering".

When Solitary and Pride roll the dice, Bai Yan will be unable to control the dice and have no way of knowing the outcome of their rolls.

In the situation of playing blindly, he could only do his best to position Maryse’s and Amy’s dice in better positions.

But he could only continue.

Nowadays, Bai Yan has acquired the power possession of Mu Ling, using her strength to unleash the dice to a greater extent.

And so, the game proceeded for another two rounds.

Next, it was Maryse’s turn.

Maryse’s game piece was only seven squares away from the finish line, while Amy’s game piece still had nine squares to go before reaching the finish line.

In normal circumstances, they both had to go through two more rounds to reach the end of the map.

As for what was happening on the other side…

Bai Yan actually could figure it out.

By Amy’s calculations and analysis, they could completely figure out what the optimal number on the opponent’s dice was for these few rounds.

Bai Yan could imagine that, each time the dice of Solitary and Pride landed, they would always be in the most optimal situation.

So, Pride’s game piece still needed to move eight spaces to reach the finish line.

But Solitary, with only five spaces remaining, could reach the finish line!

It seems that this game has already been lost.

But Bai Yan knew that there was still a chance for a comeback.

No!

In front of him, who could control the dice, this wasn’t just a "possibility," but an inevitable victory!

As long as Maryse moves forward five spaces and enters the "whirlpool" before reaching the nearby finish line, it will be fine.

After the chess piece enters the "whirlpool square", the player needs to roll the dice again. If the number obtained is odd, they will move back the corresponding number of spaces. If the number obtained is even, they will move forward the corresponding number of spaces.

That means, Bai Yan only needed to make Maryse’s piece move forward five spaces this turn, enter the "whirlpool," and then roll a "2" to go directly to the finish line!

They won.

Even though he hadn’t truly won the game yet, Bai Yan could already envision victory.

So he commanded Maryse to roll the dice.

The voice of the half-elven girl echoed once again.

[Hmm…]

[For the sake of everyone… I will roll the dice, even though I’ve grown to dislike you, I still hope that everyone in the Babel Tower can survive.]

Maryse spoke in a calm voice, and then she rolled the dice once again.

The massive dice rolled on the ground.

Through the power of the Ruin-level Relic, Bai Yan controlled the state of the dice and quickly made it settle… on five!

Alright, the game piece moves forward five spaces.

Whirlpool!

At this very moment, the half-elf game piece representing Maryse enters the whirlpool, only two spaces away from reaching the end of the game!

So close at hand!

In Maryse’s hands, the dice reappeared once again.

Then, she took a deep breath and threw it again.

"Is this the end?"

In the next moment, the Ruin-level Relic landed on the ground, and Bai Yan immediately tried to control it with its power. But just at that moment, an even stronger force blocked his interference.

What?

Bai Yan was taken aback.

Their power was even stronger!

Immediately, the "mist" in the whole room dispersed, and everyone could see clearly around them.

Amy and Maryse exchanged a glance, noticing that Pride and Solitary were still standing in their respective places.

Maryse looked at the dice and was amazed.

1!

The chess piece moved one step forward.

"How could it be?"

Pride burst into laughter, leaving the young girl astonished before Solitary threw the final dice.

Five.

He won.

"The game has come to an end."

All began to fade away in the shimmering silver light, and in the midst of the infinite radiance stood Solitary, shining like a dazzling celestial being.

He said calmly,

"Even though we are both using Ruin-level Relics, it’s clear that my power can unlock more potential from these relics… while now, you are weak and unable to fully control them."

"False Savior, you should also turn into nothingness."

He paused for a moment, and a slight smile appeared on his face, "Next, it’s the final game."
