Chapter 34: Is He serious?

'Hey system, if my answer is wrong, will I die?'

{Why are you asking? Of course host will die.}

'It's just a YES or NO question, I hope my plan is full proof.'

Supreme stood in front of the floating screen and thought. 'I used the pen on the table I sat on to write Artificial-intelligent on a piece of paper, then use my skill to move it to the view of the tight suited player. He saw the word 'Artificial-intelligent' written on the piece of paper, not knowing who wrote it, which is AKA 'Me', who's also the public-described imposter hasn't left his spot.

So after some thought. He announced he got the answer, just as I planned.'

'But still, his explanation caught me off guard, it suited my second answer.'

He was brought out of his thoughts by schoolgirl's voice.

"Do you really know the answer, Supreme?"

Supreme didn't reply but said. "The answer is an echo."

'This is it, let see if 90% of intelligence will fail me, if it does, then... I am simply doom.'

"An echo?"

"How is the answer an echo?"

"What is this guy even saying?"

"I will rather go with the first answer, because this one is stupid."

Schoolgirl and the blue hair man was silent for a while before she asked. "Are you sure Supreme?"

"Hmm." Supreme nodded.

Two lasers guns pointed at supreme, and bright light shone on the barrels.

'Wrong answer?' Supreme thought, his face changed silently.

"We are dead, so dead. If Supreme dies, no one will be able to answer" schoolgirl said, Her body was trembling.

"What will happen to us now?"

"Let give up, we are dead already"

The remaining 18 players, plus Supreme making them 19 was on the verge of tears, Already seeing Supreme's headless body. If even a body will remain after the two lasers fire.

"If that I knew, I would be at home having fun with my friends."

"I would have been in my girlfriend by now, why did I play this game?"

"I was about to enjoy my wife too, but she stopped me, telling me to give her life times before I can enter, that is how I got here!"

All the players had already given up hope, if someone who is standing at the top of the leader board dies from answering the riddle, What could they do?

The next moment the two lasers drove back inside the ceiling, remaining four outside. Then AI's voice sounded.

"Huh?"

"He got it?"

"We are saved!!"

"Wait for me Stacey, I will bring back life times and then enter your cave!!" The player yelled loudly.

All the other players turned to him with a frown, even Supreme was staring at him with a frown.

"What?"

"Nothing" they said in unison.

"Thanks Supreme, you got the answer right. I thought no one will be able to answer it. Thank goodness we have you" schoolgirl said with a smile.

"We are all in this together"

Everyone nodded hearing his words and turned their attention to the second riddle.

"We need to answer the second one, at least faster than the first one." Schoolgirl said, while everyone nodded again,

Supreme turned to the second riddle and read it out loud.

"~What are the next three letters in this combination? OTTFFSS___.~"

"Ok... This riddle is not that difficult, who know the answer?" Schoolgirl asked looking around.

Silence...

Everyone was looking at each other, trying to see who will nod. No one what to give an answer and die for getting it wrong. Not when there are still a lot of them present. Put it in a simpler term: 'no one what to be a sacrifice'

"This one is kind of easy" Supreme muttered.

"Really? Do you know the answer?" The blue hair man asked mockingly.

Supreme pretended not hearing the mocking tone behind the man's words, and continued:

"This said; What are the next three letters in this combination~ OTTFFSS." He paused for a while. 'I hope I am right.'

Having the highest intellect among the group, his IQ was on a whole different level, that he wish he had it when he was still in school. Supreme was only Twenty-two years old, by now, he should be in college. But because of life times, he and his sister couldn't go to school. Something he plans to change after winning this game.

If he wins the game?

"What are you saying? I don't quite get." Schoolgirl asked in mild confusion.

"It's simple, the answer is... ENT."

"ENT?"

Everyone looked at each other, totally perplexed.

"What is ENT?" Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I haven't heard of ENT before"

"Me too"

"Let's see if that is the answer?"

"I think he will die this time, because ENT is not even a word."

"You are right, but is OTTFFSS A word?" Schoolgirl asked.

All the players stopped talking after hearing her question.

"Good, if you don't have anything useful to say, stay quiet" she said calmly. Even though this game sealed the players' Mana, causing them to be unable to use skills or summon pet, but her aura was still active. Instantly shutting down the players.

'Interesting' Supreme fixed his gaze on the lasers, instantly, two other lasers drove back inside the ceiling remaining two outside.

"What?"

"He got it? How is ENT the answer?"

"Am I the only one confuse?"

"I think we are on the same boat, I got confused the moment I saw the riddle."

"Then we aren't on the same boat" the man who yelled about his wife replied to the player beside him.

"Wow supreme, you are on fire." Schoolgirl said with a bright smile, 'Who is this guy?' She thought.

Supreme just nodded at her, and read the third question. "~ George, Helen, and Steve are drinking Coffee, while... Bert, Karen, and Dave are drinking soda. Following the pattern, is Elizabeth drinking Coffee or Soda?~"

All the players kept shut, focusing their attention on Supreme, waiting for him to answer the riddle, he had successfully answered two riddles in a row. So they knew he could answer the last one. And for them to leave this forsaken library.

To the shock and horror of everyone, Supreme turned around and walked back to his sit.

"Huh?"

"What is he doing?"

"Are we going to answer this?"

Even schoolgirl was confused by Supreme's action. "Don't you know the answer?" She asked cautiously.

"I am tired, I need to rest" he answered, closing his eyes.

All the players' face turned pale, they all moved their heads to the timer.

Thirty minutes was more than enough, RIGHT?
