Just based on this appearance alone, it’s definitely worth following.
But weren’t the comments a bit too strange?
Looking this good, wasn’t it natural to want to pounce on the streamer and do something weird to them?
Why were people instead kneeling and begging to have weird things done to them?
Had this kind of trend become popular recently?
Ruan Qing hadn’t enabled the comments, so he didn’t know what they were saying, nor did he know that his negative points were slowly moving into the positive.
After laughing, he spun the gun in his hand and spoke with a hint of disdain, “Does this count as using force against you?”
The staff member had already come back to his senses, his body and pupils returning to normal. He smiled and shook his head. “No, it doesn’t.”
Ruan Qing tossed the gun onto the gambling table, as if throwing away trash, and said with a touch of boredom, “Boring.”
“Not playing anymore.”
The staff member frowned at the gun thrown in front of him. He looked up, wanting to say something.
But after throwing the gun, Ruan Qing immediately turned around, intending to leave.
The onlooking gamblers quickly made way for him, following him fervently.
They wanted to see if he would gamble on something else.
The staff member saw Ruan Qing walking away and instinctively wanted to follow, but it was his ‘working’ time.
He couldn’t leave his post.
The staff member had no choice but to watch Ruan Qing walk away.
Several other players were also watching Ruan Qing leave.
After entering the casino, the players didn’t gamble rashly; instead, they were learning about the entire Life and Death Casino.
Not only the casino’s rules, but also the rules of various betting items.
Gambling recklessly without understanding the situation would surely lead to a disastrous defeat.
Because this instance was also very famous among advanced instances, being the only one where new players could join without waiting for the previous batch to clear or die.
There were no restrictions.
Even the seven-day time limit mentioned in the instance task could be extended.
The marketplace in the Life and Death Casino sold everything, even items that could extend the mission time, which was strangely recognized by the game system.
This was a situation not found in any other dungeon world.
The Life and Death Casino’s marketplace was like a small system marketplace, with even three items being interchangeable with those in the system marketplace.
In other words, if one bought them here in the casino marketplace, they could take them out of the instance.
It’s somewhat like obtaining items in other game instances.
But the items in other instances could only be obtained once. Once someone got them, they could never be obtained again.
But this instance was different; as long as they had enough gold coins, they could buy those three items without restriction.
Therefore, many players want to obtain the token for this instance to enter it.
However, the completion rate for this instance was not high.
After all, it required a hundred thousand gold coins to complete, and players who were not good at gambling might not make it even if they had ten lives to bet.
But skilled gamblers were rare.
So, players would try to follow such excellent gamblers, hoping to find an opportunity.
The young man definitely counted as an excellent gambler.
Players discreetly followed the young man.
Because there were quite a few players following, it didn’t seem conspicuous.
However, the viewers in the players’ live streams were somewhat speechless.
[What’s with all these players following him? Just boldly start a conversation, this isn’t a player-versus-player game. The top player won’t kill you, you can’t even latch onto him properly.]
[Wait, something’s off. The streamer can’t seem to see us saying the young man is a player?]
[Huh? This isn’t an instance where players need identity cards to maintain their roles. Why can’t they see it? The streamer can see it when I talk about other players.]
The viewers in the live stream tried a bit and found that the streamers really couldn’t see it, and it wasn’t just one streamer.
All the players present couldn’t see it; to them, the young man seemed like just an NPC in the casino.
There was only one possibility then: comments about the young man were being blocked in the live stream.
And such blocking in the live stream only happened when the comments were related to clues about the instance.
[So... does that mean there’s something wrong with that young man?]
The audience in the live broadcast room was shocked. Could it be that the young man was the ultimate boss of the Life and Death Casino?
But the young man was clearly live streaming. Not only could they give tips, but they could also follow him.
However, upon closer thought, the live stream had no cover image and no name, which was quite suspicious.
In the “Infinite Horror” instances, there were many cases where bosses disguised themselves as players. Maybe this time was the same situation.
The only difference was the addition of a live stream.
For a moment, the number of viewers in Ruan Qing’s live broadcast room surged once again.
System: “...” What should he say?
The live stream lacked a cover image and name simply because Ruan Qing was too lazy to set them up.
He didn’t overstep his boundaries to set them up either.
Starting a live stream wouldn’t affect the collapsing of one’s persona because the viewers and the players were different.
Even if the viewers knew Ruan Qing was a player, they wouldn’t deduct persona points, as the viewers didn’t belong to the “Infinite Horror” game.
Ruan Qing walked while looking around, appearing somewhat indifferent, not very interested.
Probably because he was very dissatisfied with the previous gamble.
When Ruan Qing’s gaze fell on a gambling table not far away, the staff beside the table immediately gave Ruan Qing a bright smile.
“Want to play a round?”
There were poker cards on the table, presumably for some kind of poker game.
Ruan Qing walked over, seemingly a bit interested.
However, he only discovered, upon getting closer, that there were still gamblers playing at the table.
If he wanted to play, he would have to wait for the next round.
Ruan Qing didn’t like waiting. He looked at the gamblers sitting at the table, frowned, and stopped walking.
Seeing this, the staff inexplicably understood instantly. He directly pressed down on the poker cards on the table.
He stopped one of the gamblers from taking the cards.
The gambler instinctively pulled hard, but the cards didn’t budge.
He looked up, displeased.
Just as the gambler was about to speak, the staff member smiled and spoke first. “Sorry, I concede this round.”
As the staff member spoke, they pushed over a voucher for one thousand gold coins. “This is an apology gift for you. Could you please leave now?”
The gamblers were initially very angry, but seeing the one thousand gold coins and the staff member conceding, they quietly left the table.
However, the gamblers didn’t leave because they had just heard the staff member inviting another gambler.
They wanted to see what kind of person could make the staff member behave like this?
After the table was cleared, the staff member made a gentlemanly gesture towards Ruan Qing, “Please.”
Ruan Qing slowly walked over and sat in the chair in front of the gambling table.
The table still had the playing cards from the previous gambler, with the game rules and instructions written beside them.
Ruan Qing seemed uninterested in the written rules. He picked up the playing cards, pressing a corner with his fingertip, and spun them on the table. “What are we betting on?”
The staff member did not answer but instead smiled and asked, “Did you just want to bet on number five’s life?”
The staff members had a numbered badge on their chest, and number five was the one from the Russian roulette game earlier.
Without waiting for Ruan Qing to respond, the staff member continued, “How about betting on my life instead?”
Ruan Qing’s hand paused slightly as he spun the cards, seemingly gaining some interest.
“As for you...” The staff member paused, their gaze falling on the tear mole at the corner of Ruan Qing’s eye, and smiled as they spoke.
“I want your body.”
lmao even the staff wants him
ReplyDeleteI'm really not surprised all forms of beings or entities want him😂
