King of Black Mist - Chapter 566 Gambling
It does look a lot like an adventure game, like a game of Gwent.
“Sister Yao, would you like to try?” Li Qianxia encouraged curiously.
Yaochi smiled: “In terms of quantity of treasures, I have the most, but this competition is obviously about quality.”
“The key is whether skills are considered ‘treasures’.” Yang Qinglan raised her hand and waved Ruyi, using “information reading” on the island, but it failed.
Li Qianxia collected more information and said: “Each fog shadow has its own rules. This fog shadow is a gambling treasure, so it will restrict any other means.”
The four of them discussed for a while and felt that there should be no danger. If the situation was not right, they could admit defeat without losing their weapons.
Li Qianxia volunteered and jumped onto the island.
Just in case, she put all the important things in Li Changzhou’s backpack.
Octopus Mist Shadow was suddenly activated, and his tone became emotional: “Baby, baby!”
Li Qianxia replied: “Aba Aba?”
“Baby, baby, baby, baby!” Octopus Wuying held out a tentacle, and a ball of light appeared between the two of them.
Inside the ball of light is a stone.
Divine awareness is useless, and any detection spells are ineffective, but you can know that it is an ordinary stone without any means.
because
[The ordinary stone that the Universe Collector grabbed in his hand before he died]
——Such a light curtain is displayed above the stone.
“Cosmic Collector?” Li Qianxia was curious.
Octopus Wuying made a gentleman’s salute, obviously referring to it.
“A cosmic-level collector, it seems that it has a lot of treasures.” Yaochi said with a smile.
Yang Qinglan said: “Take out a stone that has no value. It seems that it is very confident in its own treasure house.”
Li Changzhou followed: “Just like people who have Wang Zha in their hands, they all like to play a 3 alone.”
Yang Qinglan nodded, indicating that what he said impressed her.
On the small island, Li Qianxia was about to take out the treasure. At this moment, she suddenly realized the most difficult part of this game – valuation.
How to ensure that the value of one’s own treasures must be higher than that of the other party’s?
Between a piece of clothing and a stone, in terms of human values, the clothing is naturally of higher value.
But what about here?
Clothing is cloth and stone is stone. Which one is more valuable, cloth or stone?
It was necessary to bring out something that was sure to win. To be on the safe side, extraordinary items were naturally the safest, but Li Qianxia had nothing on her and it was all in Li Changzhou’s backpack.
I originally wanted to play with it for a while, but it seems I can only start experimenting directly.
She tried to use the skill “Gold Coin and Silver Coin” (effect: aim at the sun to remove a gold coin, aim at the moon to remove a silver coin).
It worked.
A light ball flew out, juxtaposed with the stone, and a light curtain also appeared above the light ball.
[A skill of the original divine body sister]
As soon as the [Skill] appeared, the light of the [Stone] dimmed and turned into a gashapon rolling to the ground.
Although no detailed information was displayed, Octopus Kirikage took out his tentacle without any hesitation, which was also a ball of light.
“Baby! Baby!” it cheered.
Li Qianxia’s [Skill] dimmed and turned into a gashapon and fell on the beach.
Skills can be used as ‘treasures’ to participate in gambling, and the experiment is completed.
Experiment 2.
“I surrender.”
no response.
There is no way to admit defeat verbally, Experiment 2 is over.
Li Qianxia was about to take out a white waist-baring sling she bought at BM, and imagined Octopus Kiriying wearing the sling, when an inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind.
She had an experiment she wanted to do.
She pulled out a piece of her own hair.
Experiment 3: Can the body be used as a treasure, and whether a hair on her head can be more valuable than her skills.
The hair floated out, juxtaposed with [a skill of the Universe Collector].
The light curtain that appears on the hair is: [Original Divine Body Sister’s Badness·Original Hair]
“Abba, Abba! Why do you need to add the word ‘bad’? This will make it look like my hair quality is not good, Abba!” Li Qianxia was very dissatisfied. Her hair was getting better.
The light of [Skill] dimmed and turned into the third gashapon on the beach.
“Baby, baby, baby!” Octopus Wuying didn’t know what he was talking about, his tone was very enthusiastic, and he stared at Li Qianxia’s hair like a crazy person.
But it didn’t move slowly, and still saw the value of this hair at a glance.
Wuying reached out a little, and a finger as white as jade was suspended in the air.
[Inferior·A finger of the original divine body]
[Hair] turned into a gashapon and rolled down on the beach.
“Even such a thing exists?” The three people on the flying boat were a little surprised.
Regardless of the fact that Li Changzhou is the real original divine body, Yang Tianlu and Li Yuyin are also original divine bodies, Li Huoya is the original fire tree, Li Qianxia has the original bloodline, and Tathagata is the original golden body of faith, it seems that there are many “originals”.
After going through the universe several times, they may be the only living ‘originals’.
The octopus in front of me actually has an ‘evil-original’ finger, which is worthy of the name of the Collector of the Universe.
The three of them were surprised, but Li Qianxia on the island was embarrassed.
What is more valuable than [an inferior, original finger]?
Two fingers, naturally.
But for a game, the prizes are probably [Stones] – the funerary objects that the Octopus caught before it died, and [Fingers] – this is simply the remains of a dead person, cut off two of his fingers?
She hesitated, and Octopus Mist Shadow also sighed.
Yaochi understood it at a glance and said with a smile: “Collectors are not sure of the value of ‘Original Hair’, so in order to secure a win, they took out a ‘Original Finger’. This kind of thing is too tempting to Li Qianxia.” It’s too low, which is inconsistent with collectors’ tactics of luring opponents into continuing betting.”
She completely guessed Octopus Kirigage’s psychology.
“Baby, baby, baby!” Octopus Kirigami said regretfully.
Li Qianxia took out the white waist-baring sling and she quite liked it.
She has a thin waist and looks particularly good when her waist is exposed.
The key is that this small sling also shows the size of the breasts, B can have the size of C.
“Baby, this is baby, wear baby like this!” She also tried to teach Octopus how to wear a suspender belt.
The bet was naturally lost.
After all, it’s a suspender belt, so it won’t show your big breasts.
Winning the bet, Octopus Kirigage, who was regretful just a moment ago, waved his eight tentacles: “Baby!!”
Anyone can see its ecstasy.
It picked up Li Qianxia’s hair, rubbed it on his face obsessively, and carefully put it into the body together with the [stone], [finger], and [small sling].
Li Qianxia was disgusted by it.
Although she knew that Octopus Kirigage was not a pervert who liked hair, but simply loved treasures, it was her hair after all.
She returned to the flying boat and said, “Why do I feel like it’s acting? Is it deliberately acting like it’s winning a good deal, so as to seduce the opponent to challenge again?”
“There’s no doubt, it’s just acting.” Yaochi is a master of acting.
“One piece for you, one piece for me, we’ll bet on the treasures, winner takes all, whoever wants to go to the island.” Octopus Kirikage turned into an NPC again, just like the Pokémon wandering around in the game.
Experiment three, no, experiment four.
Li Qianxia landed on the island again.
“Baby, baby!” Octopus Wuying moved his tentacles a little.
[Ordinary dirt that the Universe Collector grabbed in his hand before he died]
Experiment: Is it possible to repeatedly visit the island to gamble?
Experimental results: Yes
“Abba, Abba!” Li Qianxia took out less soil from her Hengsha world and lost the bet.
Li Qianxia came back and said: “Since skills can be used as ‘treasures’, then my brother is determined to win, and it is decided that it is you, Li Ergou, use the ‘Fake Victory State’!”
I have to say that this game is extremely tempting to those who really have treasures.
For example, Li Changzhou.
Li Changzhou stood up and walked towards the island: “The ‘Pseudo-Winner’s State’ can’t win without force. If it can force me to go that far, I won’t take any of its treasures even if it wins.”
Not arrogant.
He has been correcting his mentality, and he must not regard his “pseudo-winner attitude” as his true strength.
The “pseudo-winner attitude” is too out of character, and treating it as one’s own strength is extremely detrimental to his development.
Octopus Kirikage comes to life again.
“Baby baby!” Touch the tentacle a little.
[The ordinary wood that the Universe Collector grabbed in his hand before he died]
“How many times have you died? Oh, you have eight hands.” Li Qianxia realized after complaining.
Li Changzhou had no intention of taking his time. He had no hobby of collecting, and he had no time to waste collecting things that were of no use.
He pointed.
[A skill of the original divine body. 】
S-level skill, “Emotional Control”.
Amidst the exclamations and cheers of the Octopus Shadow, Li Changzhou was thinking about whether “emotional control” could be paired with “God’s Will·Destiny”.
Character determines destiny. In a sense, character and emotion can be equated.
“Emotional control” can also become the carrier of “God’s will and destiny”.
The octopus has a little tentacle.
[A private library of a cosmic collector]
“Emotional Control” becomes a gashapon and is dropped. Inside the light ball of “A Private Library” is a potted plant, and inside the potted plant is a morning glory.
“This is a library?” Li Qianxia felt so abstract.
Yang Qinglan became a little interested. A library that could surpass the S-skill would definitely have a good collection of books in quantity and quality.
Li Changzhou also faced the same problem as Li Qianxia before, unable to know the accurate value of the items.
According to Octopus Kirikage’s ability to estimate and its greedy character, [A Private Library] should just be better than “Emotional Control”.
But no one can say for sure.
Li Changzhou pointed his finger again.
An S-level skill from the useless veteran, “Useless Rosary”.
The light of [a private library] went out.
Octopus Mist Shadow didn’t cheer this time, he looked very cautious and kept his tentacles a little in the void.
[A rare item for a cosmic collector]
“Useless Rosary” and “A Strange Object” began to flash at the same time, breathing like a master’s competition. After the last move, see who can’t hold on and collapse first.
Everyone watched intently.
After a while, the “useless rosary” was completely extinguished.
[A Wonderful Item] wins.
“Huh~” Octopus Wuying wiped his forehead with his tentacles, as if he was frightened into a cold sweat.
There is a flute in the aperture of [A Rare Item]. What effect can a flute have if it has better S-level skills? The four of them were very curious.
Li Changzhou also fell into deliberation.
[A Wonderful Item] was in a stalemate with “Useless Rosary Beads”, and in the end only one won, and it was obviously S-level. So who is more valuable compared to S-level “Teleportation”?
If you lose, the bet will end immediately. Even if you can start over, you won’t be able to get back the S-class “Teleport”.
But if you win, you can win one more S-level treasure by relying on S-level “Teleport”.
Even if the treasures that can be won are more valuable than “teleportation”, their practicality may not be better than “teleportation”.
Li Changzhou chose to play it safe.
It’s not that I don’t dare to gamble.
“Teleport” has been with him for so long, and he has worked hard and achieved great results. Like an old general, he has feelings for it.
He also has an S-level skill, obtained from Yaochi’s “King of Black Mist”. This skill cannot be used as a bet.
“Twins”, “Emerald Bee Sword”, “Life and Death”, and “King of Black Mist”, these four skills or props are real treasures to him.
All that’s left is——
The humanoid black mist walked out from behind Li Changzhou.
[The origin of the original divine body]
[A rare item] dropped directly, leaving no room for comparison.
The octopus Black Mist faced the humanoid Black Mist and made an extremely exaggerated attitude. It backed away continuously, like an actor in a stage play.
[Black Mist], the official player gave it as ‘unknown’.
Is it because the quality is too high, or because “Black Mist” involves [Saint Black Hand], Li Changzhou still doesn’t know the reason.
“This is putting pressure on myself.” Yaochi said with a smile.
“My brother can be pushed to this point, no wonder Octopus dares to open a store.” Li Qianxia was very excited and looked forward to the next development.
Octopus Mist Shadow cautiously approached the humanoid black mist, seemingly observing and evaluating, and then quickly retreated.
It walked back and forth on the island. Whether it was anxious or hesitant, the four of them could not tell from its body that was completely covered in mist.
After a long time, the eight tentacles of the octopus Wuying carried a treasure box and handed it out carefully.
It actually has a treasure that it thinks can be compared to the humanoid black mist? !
As Octopus Kirigage was the ‘Cosmic Collector’ during his lifetime, he naturally would not take aim without aim, so the four of them watched closely.
【Cosmic Collector’s Treasure Box】
“Did you take out everything?” Li Qianxia asked curiously.
[Treasure Chest] and [Black Mist] began to flash, entering a life and death battle again.
The four of them could not imagine it.
The black mist can take away the skills of the identity card, and the identity card is a valuable thing in the game. What kind of transcendent existence is this?
But in the fifth holy city, a small island that I randomly encountered actually contained a treasure comparable to [Black Mist].
Under the gaze of the four people and Yi Wuying, the light of the [Treasure Box] became weaker and weaker, and then suddenly fell.
“Baby!!!” Anyone can hear Octopus’s fear.
Bang!
The Octopus Mist Shadow exploded and lost all its treasures. It had no value and was not qualified to stay in the Sea of Secrets.
“It’s done, it’s done!” Li Qianxia shouted.
She couldn’t imagine how many treasures there could be in a treasure chest that could confront [Black Mist] for a while!
Hua la la, the calm sea surface suddenly had waves, and the waves began to engulf the island at an extremely fast speed.
Li Changzhou didn’t dare to stay long, so he waved his hand to collect all the treasures and jumped back into the flying boat.
When his feet landed on the airship, the beach island completely disappeared.
Li Qianxia said excitedly: “Brother, quickly, take out the things!”
Yaochi and Yang Qinglan also looked forward to it.
“I don’t know how many blessed places and caves there are.” Yaochi said.
Yang Qinglan said: “I only want the library, all the libraries.”
“The rest are all mine!” Li Qianxia announced.
Li Changzhou also had a smile on his face and was about to speak.
Crack!
The bright light on the bow of the spaceship flashed suddenly, and the originally dazzling light in the clear sky and daylight dimmed a little.
The four of them were shocked.
Li Changzhou’s face darkened.
This lamp was his will. Obviously, he had just been fascinated by the [Treasure Box] that could compete with the [Black Mist] and fell into materialistic desires.
Yang Qinglan, Yaochi, and Li Qianxia’s faces were equally ugly.
If it weren’t for Li Changzhou’s bright light, they wouldn’t even know that their will was wavering.
If it were in the outside world, this greed would be nothing, but this is the fifth holy city, and the test is the strong Taoist heart.
Being picky and picky, even the slightest mistake will be infinitely magnified here.
Li Changzhou was not in a hurry to open the treasure box and said in a deep voice: “Let’s leave this level first.”
The three of them nodded at the same time, with lingering fears.
Li Changzhou thought about becoming the “winner”, and the flying boat continued to drive aimlessly.
Another half year passed, and the four of them were still wandering on the sea, neither touching the fish to improve their qualifications nor landing on the island to obtain priceless treasures.
They tried every means, but still couldn’t find a way out.
But Li Changzhou’s will has not changed, and the light on the bow of the ship is getting brighter and brighter.
Yang Qinglan, Yaochi, and Li Qianxia looked at the bright light, and the thoughts in their hearts became more and more determined.
When the bright light is like a small sun, the coastline appears!
