Cataclysm King - #12 - Chapter 12: I want to gamble too

  Chapter 12 I want to gamble too

   “Damn it’s the ‘Gambling Dog’ on the third floor! How did it become an A-level disaster!”

   “This monster can’t be killed, let’s go!”

  “.”

  As reported in the information, the bullet hit the monster’s body as if it had been pierced into asphalt, and after rippling, it returned to normal.

   Has no killing effect at all.

  The dozen or so mercenaries all showed panic on their faces.

  They have all heard of the horror of this disaster.

   As long as it finds it, there will be no survivors!

   Even the girl with the mechanical arm changed her face drastically, and hurriedly reminded Ji Xun beside her: “This monster is of the curse system, and whoever it finds will die! I can’t resist that curse.”

   As she spoke, she cursed secretly: “Damn it, why is this disaster here?”

  For other monsters, she still has the confidence to be tough.

  But curse monsters cannot be dealt with by conventional means.

  In addition to the evil door, it is still the evil door!

  Avoiding is the best option.

  Ji Xun’s expression didn’t change at all, but he didn’t think it was bad luck.

  On the contrary, I think that after encountering this monster, the strength will be normal.

   Before the words fell, the dozen or so mercenaries showed the correct posture to face the monster.

  The bald captain shouted loudly: “Run!”

   There was no intention of fighting at all, and the mercenaries immediately chose to run away.

  The bad news is that whoever this monster finds will die.

   The good news is that it only looks for one person at a time.

  At this moment, everyone is betting in their hearts.

   Bet that the monster is not looking for you.

  However, since this disaster occurs, someone must die.

  The group of mercenaries had just run away for a short time, when they suddenly saw a black shadow flash past, and when they looked again, the gambling dog who was a hundred meters away appeared in front of the group of mercenaries like a flash.

  Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, slightly surprised: “Teleportation?”

  It is one thing to hear about it, but another thing to see it with your own eyes.

   And the mercenary in front of the [Spell Gambler] didn’t even think that he was selected, and his face turned pale.

  The bald captain and the other mercenaries couldn’t bear it, but they all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

   It’s fine if you don’t find yourself.

  The bald man’s eyes trembled left and right, without any hesitation: “Come on, leave him alone!”

  Everyone knows that being selected by monsters, no one will survive.

   There is no point in staying.

   As soon as the voice fell, a group of people didn’t care about their companions at all, and they didn’t care about the safe.

  The monster completely ignored the fleeing mercenaries, spread out with one hand, and two glowing playing cards appeared in front of him.

   showed it, and one of them had an ‘Ace of Spades’ pattern on it.

   In a dazzled flash, the two playing cards replaced positions countless times.

   It is a very simple two-choice bet, which seems to be a gamble on eyesight.

  The monster made a deep devil-like voice: “Gamble, which one is the Ace of Spades?”

  The selected mercenary was ashen-faced, as if restrained by some mysterious force, and stood there in a daze.

  He stretched out his hand tremblingly, he didn’t want to choose, but if he didn’t choose, he would definitely die. If he chose, he still had half the chance of surviving, “I choose this one.”

  The kobold looked at the one he had chosen, and the face of the devilish scary dog ​​showed a sarcastic anthropomorphic smile, and said hoarsely: “Congratulations, you guessed wrong!”

  The answer is revealed.

  The selected cards are turned over, and there is nothing on them.

   And the other one is the Ace of Spades.

   As soon as the words fell, the frightened expression on the mercenary’s face froze instantly, and he lost all vitality and died suddenly on the spot.

not far away.

   Ji Xun, who had just run not far, looked at this scene, and said with emotion in his heart: “This is a curse, such a strange way of killing people.”

   Originally, I wanted to see how monsters killed people, but this way, it was completely beyond cognition.

  As the intelligence said, this method of killing with the curse of instant death is not immune to conventional means at all.

  The group of mercenaries also saw this scene, and all of them were scared to death, and they fled even faster.

  However, after killing one person, the kobold teleported again and disappeared on the spot.

   Before the mercenaries could react, the kobold had already blocked the crowd of mercenaries.

   After all, there are more than ten people, and the probability of being selected by the monster is much higher.

   And the one chosen by the monster this time is the “old six” who opened the lock.

  As before, the other mercenaries decisively abandoned their teammates again and ran away.

   But obviously, the mercenaries also found that they have a large number of targets and are more likely to be targeted by monsters. In the process of escaping, the bald captain’s eyes flashed fiercely, and without warning, he shot two cards towards Ji Xun and the two in the distance.

  The girl with the mechanical arm was keenly aware, raised her hand and raised her gun like lightning, and smashed the two cards a few meters away with two shots.

  However, what was unexpected was that the two cards exploded, exploding powder like fluorescent powder all over the floor.

  The girl with the mechanical arm dodged instinctively when she saw this, but because the distance was too close, some powder was still contaminated on Ji Xun, who was avoiding it.

The girl looked at the powder, and her face changed: “No, this is a ‘dirty bullet card’! This powder is the bait made by the poisonous glands of zombie worms. The smell has a strong attraction to most disasters. Take off the vest, we Get out of here!”

  Ji Xun took a look at the powder on his body. Although he didn’t know what kind of worm it was, he also guessed its purpose.

  He said in a tone that was not unexpected: “The mercenaries didn’t do anything before, but that’s actually their plan now. In their eyes, the only value we have to keep us alive is ‘bait’. But it doesn’t matter.”

  Hearing what he said, the girl with the mechanical arm always felt something strange: I know you have been on guard for a long time, and you are so foolishly standing up and getting hit?

   But now is not the time to talk too much.

  She led the oil bottle teammate and retreated all the way.

  Ji Xun was really not surprised.

  At least the moment the bald-headed mercenary turned his head, he guessed the guy’s intentions.

  Ji Xun took off his tactical vest in a leisurely manner, keeping an eye on the ongoing gambling game from the corner of his eye.

  He wanted to see some tricks.

  The monster still took out two cards, and asked the same question to the “old six”: “Just take a bet, which one is the Ace of Spades?”

  The sixth child was already drenched in cold sweat from fright, but this guy was obviously thinking about it. He turned his small eyes and pointed to one: “I guess this one.”

   As he spoke, he grabbed the one abruptly, and said, “I guess this is not it.”

  Since the monster will be out of thousands, the sixth child will assume that the cards in his hand have been changed, so he is smart and chooses first and then speaks.

   Then, the sixth child died suddenly.

   Guessed wrong again.

  The card in the corpse’s hand was still a blank card.

  The Thousand Skills of Betting on Dogs is more powerful than what Lao Liu judged.

   “100% sudden death.”

   Two people died in a row, Ji Xun thought about it and understood.

   It seems to have a 50% chance of survival, but in fact, the enlightenment is already obvious, and this kobold will definitely “come out.”

  So normally, no matter which one you choose, you will lose.

   Monsters will teleport, but it doesn’t matter how fast they run.

   Instead, running around in this unknown laboratory is even more risky.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun slowed down after crossing the corner, and said to the girl with the mechanical arm: “If we are selected in a while, leave me alone and go first. I will try my best to delay the time. With your speed, I should Can run farther than those mercenaries. Of course, if I don’t die, you will come back to pick me up.”

  The girl with the mechanical arm stared blankly, thinking she heard it wrong: “???”

  What she didn’t say before is: If you are chosen by the monster, although I want to save you, there is nothing I can do.

   But. What does this mean?

  Judging from this tone, this guy seems to feel that he can survive in front of [Gambling Dog]?

  Where did he get the confidence?

Before she could ask any more questions, Ji Xun explained the motivation for what he said just now: “Since those mercenaries can’t kill this [Spell Gambler], then sooner or later we have to face this monster, or Other monsters. The risk of exploring an unknown area is not necessarily lower than facing this monster, and it would be better to let those guys go to the mine first. What’s more.”

   “???”

  The robotic arm girl Ben watched Ji Xun stop, thinking that her temporary teammate was frightened and made a slip of the tongue.

   But listening to his calm tone that has never changed, I suddenly felt something strange.

  But after thinking about it, she felt that this guy was indeed right.

  Since the [gambler] on the third floor can come to hunt them down, what about the more terrifying mysterious disaster on the fourth floor?

   Or something else?

   This different-dimensional space is only more than 30% exploratory, and the invisible crisis is much more dangerous than this [Gambling Dog].

  Battle Royale mode, it is impossible to gamble to avoid all monsters.

   But now, what else can I do if I don’t run?

  The girl was in conflict for a while.

   After a pause, Ji Xun’s eyes flashed an imperceptible crazy smile, and then he said the last sentence: “Besides, I also want to gamble.”
