T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 340, Section 339: Temperance
The comical tree and the Orange Sky strategy team have caught up with the pace.

According to the ladder rankings, they are not among the fastest guilds to clear level 2.

Upon discovering that the boundary between reality and illusion was being tested alongside Khorne's Reincarnation dolls, they immediately joined in, providing a wealth of experimental data.

A new discovery has been made about the Crimson Music Box.

"The unspoken rule is that it's supposed to be a word chain game, but the puppet only allows two-character words. If the answer is a three- or four-character word, it will continue the chain. But when it comes to the selection stage, it will be eliminated."

The comical tree had just left the Tower World and returned to the guild to retrieve some mental magic resistance items to deal with interference during the chain.

I just got back and I've already been hooked on ready-to-eat meals.

"Sister Meng," said the ready-to-eat food vendor, "Are you guys about to start a word chain game? Could you please help me test the creations containing the keyword 'flesh and blood'?"

Both the Chosen of Khorne and the Scarlet Music Box challenge failed, and they are waiting for the CD.

Although everyone already knew that Huang Liang Yi Meng was a handsome guy, the initial impression of her in the game was set, and with her female vampire appearance, she naturally fit the title "Sister Meng" and could never change it back. Now everyone is used to it.

[Jiangdong Iron Wall] wondered: "Isn't this a dangerous phrase that will make you suffer? If you want us dead, just say so."

Jiang Heyi helped explain: "Before the canned food died, we saw that the warthog's body was constantly shrinking. Combining this with a dungeon we had previously cleared, I boldly guessed that flesh-and-blood creatures would gradually weaken as they attacked, as they depleted the blood plasma and flesh that sustained them."

In the Easter egg level, while French fries are fighting the Flesh Priest, they see a giant sea lily sweeping away the lowly ones in the distance.

It was attacked by the lowly magicians, its body festering all over, but it recovered completely by licking the flesh and blood off the ground bit by bit.

Actions require a lot of energy, and if the energy cannot be replenished by consuming other things, the body will become weak.

These are monsters that must survive by killing and devouring flesh and blood, constantly evolving and becoming stronger.

The flesh and blood creation of the chain puppet does not have a process of devouring, and there is no more flesh and blood material on site, so its strength is naturally limited.

Huang Liang Yi Meng's eyes lit up: "Let's get started!"

[Captain Jegan]: "If you can test it out, I'll give your favorite game a bad review."

[Jiangdong Iron Wall]: "Is that really so? General, you are truly a pillar of the Han Dynasty. Please entrust this to us!"

Orange Tea was a little confused. Everyone in the guild seemed to fully understand this nonsensical conversation, and she was bewildered.

Why is Jiangdong Tiebi so happy to give a bad review to his favorite game?

Is this reasonable?

The entire group from the Funny Tree entered the instance and stopped in front of the Dragon Doll.

Who will continue the word chain?

The monster at the boundary between reality and illusion, not counting those who brute force their way through, both Khorne and Orange Sky have emphasized the importance of choosing the right person to lead the chain.

Those with a large vocabulary, mastery of obscure words, and quick thinking will be given priority.

The boundary between reality and fiction is traversed by novelist French Fries and teacher Zhong Zemo.

Khorne God's Choice is ready to eat from the can by a master translator; for reading enthusiasts, a moment of leisure will lead to a lifetime of enjoyment.

Half of the Orange Sky members are multilingual experts with extensive reading experience, and they can readily access Chinese and foreign classics.

Huang Liangyi looked around at his elite squad and, for a moment, found no one willing to volunteer.

He couldn't help but cover his forehead: "Da Bao, I heard you're pretty good at history, so your daily vocabulary must be quite extensive..."

Jiangdong Iron Wall, who was called Da Bao, waved his hands repeatedly: "Only the Three Kingdoms, only the Three Kingdoms, I can't do it."

[My sword is not without its weaknesses.] Seizing the opportunity, he feigned anger and scolded, "Then why don't you learn from Lü Meng and study hard!"

Da Bao got angry: "Who are you insulting, Lü Meng? Who are you telling to learn from Lü Meng?!"

[Yuzu Chef Steamed Goose Heart]: "Sigh, steamed bread, sigh, the Three Kingdoms."

"You have no right to speak, shut up!" The two suddenly turned their guns on each other and joined forces against the enemy.

Huang Liang Yi Meng sighed and silently walked towards the relay puppet.

Sometimes he was quite envious of the other three guilds, as they didn't have as many funny characters as him.

"Werewolf."

The puppeteer spoke up to confirm a dangerous word, which inevitably involved identity, thus essentially confirming the point.

"Human flesh."

The vocabulary for "A Dream of Yellow Millet" is relatively limited. It's not easy to throw out enough vivid keywords in the one-minute time limit of a word chain game so that they can be easily selected. But now it's much easier.

"Minced meat".

"erosion."

"mud……"

The three guilds waiting outside saw the Funny Tree guild speak again in the group chat.

A fleeting dream: "Despite giving it my all, I cannot win."

The keywords that the Funny Tree Guild ultimately identified were: human flesh, mud, and rat.

The puppet wriggled in front of them and eventually transformed into a giant rat, 3 meters tall and nearly 5 meters long, formed from rotten flesh, covered in mud that flowed like oil.

The entire Chosen of Khorne remained calm. After being directly killed by the A10 Warthog, they felt it was just a minor incident.

I'm the kind of guy who's gone toe-to-toe with fighter jets!

The level suppression effect was too obvious. The entire comical tree was on high alert and went all out, but they could only slightly shatter the giant rat's body, making its actions even more violent.

Almost everyone in the team experienced a roller coaster ride before they died—they were hit head-on by the high-speed rat car, performed difficult gymnastic moves in the air, and landed with a thud.

There's no magic, no skill, just pure, unadorned numerical values.

The value of passing the numerical test by rigidly adhering to the boundary between the virtual and real worlds is infinitely higher.

"It wasn't a complete loss," Huang Liangyi said. "I dragged it along for a while, and its body did indeed shrink and become smaller."

Jiang Heyi snapped his fingers on the other end of the game, and everyone on the boundary between the virtual and real worlds couldn't help but high-five.

Your guess was correct!

Flesh and blood are both dangerous and, most likely, safe words.

Flesh and blood creatures have the property of self-destruction. As long as players can survive like Gor'kron, they can wait for a weak and helpless flesh and blood creature to be trampled on.

Compared to being completely clueless and only able to dance to the rhythm of the puppet show, they at least found a much better solution.

Zhifeng took in everything, and seeing the candlelight staring at this side with a smile in its eyes, he unconsciously clenched his fist.

"What are the players in the Three Realms doing?" she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed and began to question in her mind.

They clearly made it to the third floor ahead of everyone else, but now they are all stuck and making no progress whatsoever.

The Land of Three Domes, the Gate of Immortal Support.

The outstanding young generation member, [Extinction of the Sky], who was entrusted by the sect leader with the important task of listening to the immortals' will and representing the sect in battle, was equally anxious at this moment.

As the first team in the entire game to enter the third level, he was full of confidence and felt that all the heroes in the world were nothing special and not worth fearing.

Filled with pride and self-satisfaction, they walked toward the round table where they had been sweating profusely.

After learning the rules, Jinmie Cangqiong's lips curled up, and his smugness, which he couldn't suppress, flowed gently like a spring breeze in every corner.

Born into a scholarly family, he was praised by his elders for his exceptional talent from a young age. Had he not been born with an ethereal air, he would surely have become a great master.

Annihilation of the Sky naturally stepped out and sat down in front of the Dragon-Connecting Puppet.

With my quick wit, what is there to fear from this challenge?
He crossed his arms and calmly said, "Begin."

"Tree spirit."

The Sky-Destroying Demon sensed that this was a specific and dangerous phrase and quickly moved away.

"Elite".

"Heroic Spirit."

Annihilation of the Sky's heart pounded, and his breathing became rapid.

This is definitely a dangerous word!

The countdown timer on the white doll's face ticked away, each second feeling like a pump sucking air from his lungs. Suffocation and tension spread through his body with the lack of oxygen, and his body began to tense. If the soul couldn't handle it, he'd definitely try connecting with the spirit...

Dexterity... but if it involves skillful hands and specific organs, there might be problems.

"Agile...flexible?"

With the countdown fast approaching, I didn't care about anything else and just blurted it out.

There shouldn't be any problem with this, right?

"Zombie."

"..."

The word is utterly dangerous, starting with the character for "corpse," and almost every word is negative.

Sigh... wait a minute!
Since it's a word chain game, there's no restriction that it can only contain two characters.

"Holding a position without doing any work."

Annihilation of the Sky suddenly raised its head to observe the reaction of the Dragon-Switch doll.

"Plate".

"Intricately intertwined."

That's right, the rhythm is right.

If you can guide the words in each word chain towards these vague, safe words, you'll win!

When the word chain ended, only seven words were left on the list of keywords to be selected.

The dolls in the chain completed the selection process without offering any explanation.

Heroes, the undead, Temperance.

The members of the Fuxian Sect were stunned.

Having vaguely guessed the limitations hidden beneath the rules, Annihilation of the Sky remained calm.

Along the way, he encountered everything in the game.

The entire Fuxian Sect was dressed in red outfits, making them a rare high-spec group of players across the Three Kingdoms.

The team's average level was 24, and they swept through all enemies along the way in the first two levels with overwhelming force.

Currently, the level 30 dolls are only 6 levels apart, and the number of players can completely make up for the loss due to the level suppression.

"What's the panic? If you make a mistake in the word game, just use your fists to get through it!"

"Don't you want to see what tricks this evil puppet can pull?"

He suppressed the murmurs of the crowd with his personal authority before turning around, his pupils trembling as he extinguished the light in the sky.

A girl dressed in a white robe has pure white wings on her back.

She held a cup and poured water into another cup, her expression blank.

She stood in the pool, the water gurgling beneath her feet creating ripples with her movements.

In an instant, a hazy, deathly stillness enveloped the girl.

A layer of frost settled on that calm face that hinted at gentleness, and a putrid stench permeated the surroundings.

The clean, clear water in the cups was visibly stained with bright red and putrid colors.

The girl's skin began to rot, blood seeped from her eyes, her eyeballs melted and decayed, and as the blood flowed down her cheeks, a dark fire ignited in her empty eyes.

The sacred feathers on its back fell off, revealing ugly, pus-filled, swollen lumps of flesh.

The pool of water beneath my feet suddenly splashed, revealing corpses and bits of flesh scattered everywhere, the thick blood churning as if it were being boiled.

The entire world was completely bathed in crimson the moment the girl raised her head.

Jinmie Cangqiong swallowed hard.

He couldn't understand what was happening before his eyes.

He could find matching content in his cognition for heroic spirits and undead, except for temperance.

Shouldn't this be an adjective?
But why did he feel that "moderation" had given the monster before him a strange power?

Without time to think further, he hurriedly shouted, "Attack!"

This sound brought the greatly shocked Fuxian Sect members back to their senses.

The three elemental mages channeled their magic, and wisps of mist rose behind them as a surge of magical power converged.

Three elemental mages, three berserkers, and one support – this is the standard setup for many sects in the Three Kingdoms Land.

Having stood the test of time and practice, it's easy to use and straightforwardly simple.

Compared to the fact that Berserkers are disliked by both humans and dogs on Earth, they are a popular class in the Three Realms.

The girl swirled the blood plasma in her two cups, a strange rhythm spreading through the air, resonating with the elemental mage casting a spell.

"Why did my Fusion Torrent... fail to release?"

"Where did my fireball spell go...?"

As a berserker, Annihilation of the Sky had already slashed at the girl's neck.

His beast-like strength caused his blade to sink deep into flesh, as if with a little more force he could cleave the girl in two along her spine.

The blade was stuck in the flesh, making it impossible to move even an inch.

What are you all doing?!

The three members of the Fuxian Sect responsible for melee combat did not receive the Holy Knight's blessing.

"My faith... the power of faith, has become very weak out of control."

"I can no longer hear a response from the other side of faith!"

Annihilation of the Sky felt a chill run down his spine. Before he could recover from his anger and composure, his knees went weak and his body involuntarily swayed.

He could barely control his body and knelt down on the ground.

"My... power."

Seeing that his two companions in charge of melee combat had the same reaction, Jinmie Cangqiong's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.

"My magic has been restored, I can cast spells again!"

The voices of his fellow members from the Fuxian Sect behind him suddenly brought clarity to his muddled mind.

The girl's cup was overflowing with blood, and she casually poured some of it away.

Blood splattered onto the face of the annihilating sky, and the weak and powerless body suddenly surged with boundless power.

Without saying a word, he gripped the blade embedded in the girl's body.

Just as she was about to pull it out forcefully, the girl smiled slightly, and the blood plasma in the cup increased rapidly, instantly overflowing her palm.

The entire Fuxian Sect collapsed to the ground, helplessly watching as the girl hummed an obscure and incomprehensible song, walking step by step to each of them. She picked up a cup that shimmered with golden light and, one blow after another, smashed each person's skull.

In the first relay, the entire Fuxian Sect was brutally killed without any resistance.

After the entire team was wiped out, they discussed it for a long time but couldn't figure out why.

They saw elements of heroic spirits and zombies in the girl, which was clearly unrelated to her powerful ability to easily manipulate the physical strength of others.

The only matching word then is moderation.

The Fuxian Sect members looked at each other in bewilderment.

Is there anything wrong with the word "moderation"?

The arrogant Annihilation Sky twitched at the corner of his mouth, unsure how to understand it. After a long while, he finally came up with a possibility.

"The immortals are truly profound; perhaps this is a mystery that only the world in which immortals reside can comprehend."

Thinking that other sects in the Three Realms would also suffer setbacks here, he couldn't help but laugh with satisfaction.
