《Becoming God of a Dystopian World 》Chapter 282: The Mysterious Voice
Advertisement
The regular piece on his side came to life once again and as its claws grew bigger, it attacked the dragon piece by sashing its claws at it.
Another piece's limit fell to 0, and the dragon piece was destroyed.
'That felt good.'
Zhao Luo thought while looking at the dark expression on Bu Xing's face.
"This game is fun."
Zhao Luo suddenly said to Bu Xing who was still pondering over something.
'Did he fool me or was he really mistaken about the direction?'
Bu Xing thought but just this thought would have made Zhao Luo laugh.
Even if he looked sincere while apologizing, it didn't mean that he hadn't pointed in the opposite direction of the one he had told Bu Xing about.
After shaking off the irrelevant thoughts Bu Xing who was having a weird day stared at Zhao Luo before opening his mouth to say something.
"Where will we be pointing now?"
Bu Xing curiously asked Zhao Luo while Zhao Luo chuckled in response.
"Senior, how would I know that? Let's keep it fair."
Zhao Luo told Bu Xing which caused him to take a step back as now he was sure of the fact that he had indeed been fooled him.
'I have never been fooled before this. All of my enemies and friends would face misfortune before leaving me. No matter who tried to do something bad to me, it never happened and they would always have to suffer instead, but what is this? Who is this guy?'
Bu Xing looked more interested in Zhao Luo than the anger he was supposed to be projecting towards Zhao Luo.
"Yes, let's keep it fair."
Bu Xing answered Zhao Luo with a nod before starting the next round.
'He will never know that I will be looking down for the third time in a row.'

Zhao Luo thought as he had already made up his mind on where he will be turning his head at.
On the count of three, Zhao Luo turned his head down while looking at Bu Xing who was pointing his hand towards the right.
'Good.'
Zhao Luo breathed in the relief he was feeling as he used his chance to destroy the fourth dragon piece.
"Only one more win."
Zhao Luo mumbled with a confident look on his face as he thought that his victory was inevitable.
'Hah.'
Bu Xing looked down as he had lost yet another round and a glint flashed in his eyes.
"Let's end this."
Zhao Luo said to Bu Xing who looked unready for another round.
Bu Xing nodded and counted to three once again.
He pointed his hand down, while Zhao Luo had turned his head up, thus winning for the fifth time.
'Was this game specifically made for him? If it wasn't for the old man, I would have lost.'
Zhao Luo thought as originally the game would have been in his favor but because of Bu Xing's Dao of Fortune, things had gone his way. But the end was what it should have been.
The fifth piece on Bu Xing's side was destroyed as Zhao Luo hurriedly used his chance.
"So, is it over now?"
Zhao Luo asked Bu Xing with a victorious smile on his face.
"Yes. Now you will be moved to the second floor to take the tests of the Elder."
"But don't I get anything for winning this game?"
Zhao Luo asked Bu Xing who had just told him that he will be going to the second floor.
"Junior Zhao Luo, this was just a game to check some things about you. Even if I had been the one to win, you would have been sent to the second floor nonetheless."

Bu Xing explained to Zhao Luo while Zhao Luo nodded as he kept on glancing upwards as the roof blocked his sight but the ones looking down from behind the wall were able to see him.
"Don't worry. For each of the pieces you have destroyed, you will be rewarded something. Also for winning the game."
Bu Xing said to Zhao Luo, as he tried his best to take care of his junior.
Zhao Luo looked at Bu Xing and smiled.
'He has a good character.'
Zhao Luo thought while his eyes moved to the crowned dragon piece behind Bu Xing.
"What would have happened if I had destroyed that?"
Zhao Luo turned his eyes back on Bu Xing and while pointing at the 4-meter tall dragon, he asked him.
"Nobody knows. Except for just one person."
"One person?"
Zhao Luo mumbled while wondering who that one person could be.
"The First Elder."
Bu Xing replied to him.
On one hand, Bu Xing had answered him, while in his head the old man had returned.
'Good job.'
The old man sounded tired, so much that even his voice wavered as it echoed in Zhao Luo's head.
"Thank you, master."
Zhao Luo said to the old man.
'I am going back to my sleep. Take care of yourself.'
The old man sounded eager to return to his sleep and Zhao Luo turned his focus back to Bu Xing who was looking at him weirdly.
"Are you okay?"
Bu Xing asked Zhao Luo while looking worried for him.
"Mhmm."
Zhao Luo nodded his head before finding himself being sucked in by a mysterious force.
"Good Luck."
Bu Xing said to Zhao Luo who was disappearing with a confused look on his face.
The next instant Zhao Luo had disappeared from his place leaving Bu Xing alone on the stage.
"How was he?"
A mysterious voice sounded out but it was only Bu Xing who could hear it.
Bu Xing turned around and looked at the crowned dragon with the red wings.
"I am not sure. But he is really different than the others, I have my eyes on."
Bu Xing replied without opening his mouth.
"Even the First has his eyes on this one. So will you be able to bring him on our side, when the time is right?"
Another question followed by a little information landed on Bu Xing's ear.

Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.

His Trophy | Jerome Valeska
"Oh and Jim, Jim Gordon?" Jerome peered into the camera as if to yell out to an audience: "I have Rory here," he turned the camera towards Jim's daughter and revealed to the audience a girl that had been beaten and tormented, she was gaged and her eyes didn't look at the camera but above the lens; at Jerome who was holding the camera."Say hi to Daddy, doll face," he jeered from behind the camera. She looked down the lens and shook her head as if to tell Jim not to try. The camera went back to Jerome."She's a beauty isn't she, Jimbo," Jerome smirked into the camera, his laughter becoming harsh and wild: "and she's all mine, you try anything, and I mean anything, I kill her. She's my prisoner, my reward, and you're not taking her away from me Jimmy boy, on no, not this time" his words were spoken through waves of laughter.***Rory Gordan is the stepdaughter of Jim Gordon. Her mother moved a lot so Rory was born in Gotham City but raised in England and from the age of 10 she had been bouncing from one country to another with her mother. However, when she turned 17 she had grown tired of the constant change of moving and decided to move to America. It was when she was visiting her long term boyfriend when her life got flipped upside down, not only did she meet one of the craziest boys on the planet, but she discovered that she had a gift that would curse her forever. This story is a collection of scenes rather than a flowing plot, so its chronological but it skips scenes and jumps back and forth between different perspectives. The story is under editing, so it'll get more cohesive over time.••• I do not own any characters or plot lines from the tv show. However, all original characters like Rory do belong to me.Total Word Count [33,674]
