Chapter 2 Gambling
Light.
The white light was like a sharp sword shot down from the sky, piercing the young man's body quickly and accurately. He felt like a ship that had been killed by himself, and the pain of the explosion was converging and spreading. There was a whirlpool behind him, a bottomless abyss, pulling him into a situation where he would never be able to turn over, he was terrified, struggled desperately, and finally shouted out.
"Oh my God, he's awake."
"Oh, poor boy, I thought he wouldn't survive."
In a blur, the boy opened his eyes. In front of him, several white coats wearing masks surrounded him and were talking in a whisper.
"My ship!"
The boy recalls the scene where he blew up the GM, and then understands that the explosion of the computer has made him appear here. He subconsciously spoke, and what he was talking about was his "chameleon"!
But no, the computer is only more than 10,000, and the harvest of exploding GM is ten times the soft sister coin! His computer exploded, but the data in the game did not explode, and the offline delay caused by the network disconnection was a full ten minutes, who knows if there will suddenly be a player who will blow himself up again.
"Your ship? Oh I see, you're talking about the floating car that blew up accidentally? That's not your car, don't worry, the owner of the floating car has paid you 200,000 ISK in a lump sum in accordance with the relevant laws. And your follow-up expenses in the hospital will be paid by your college. β
What kind of floating car, what academy, the teenager was confused. Wait a minute...... Pay me 200,000 ...... ISKοΌ The boy roared angrily, but the voice came out of his mouth, tugging at the instrument fixed on his head, and turned into a hoarse and unpleasant cry.
To hell with 200,000 ISK! Young master, I need hundreds of millions a minute, do you need those 200,000? Hey, why do I say "hell"?
Gradually, he discovered a fact that made him chill all over his body, which Chinese language did these white coats speak? I've never heard of it myself! The key is that the fucking self can still understand?!
"Where is this?" He spoke tentatively. As soon as he spoke, he panicked even more, and he spoke the same language that he didn't know where!
"Well, poor boy...... It's okay kid, you're safe, your vital signs are very stable now, your body is just amazing. This is the community hospital on Xuefu Avenue. Not...... One thing we have to talk to you about is that we found a piece of explosives left in your head, but the monitor didn't know what it was. The material is not a tri-titanium alloy fragment, and we guess that it may be a computer chip of a floating car. Now the problem is that if we're going to take it out, then the operation will be dangerous, and given that you have no loved ones β oh poor child β we'll have to ask for your opinion. If you don't take it out, it looks like it's ...... for the time being Probably not much of a danger, at least from the information we have monitored, it doesn't have any adverse effect on you. β
The boy felt that every muscle in his body was twitching, and he forcibly suppressed his panic and captured a key word in the white coat: tri-titanium alloy.
The boy thought: Who is this kidding me? I'm hurt like this, and they know I love to play Star Wars Eve so they deliberately say this to comfort me? But what's the deal with this strange language? Computer Chip ...... The city can play, and the brain plug is out.
The more he thought about it, the more funny he felt, and deliberately teased: "Don't take it, it's my clone's brain plug, and my brother is still counting on it to learn skills!" β
His words made the white coats present look at each other, looking unclear.
"Kid, you've just woken up from a traumatic blow, and you need a good rest. We'll go out first, and if there's anything you need, press the green button next to it. By the way, your friend is outside and needs us to call him in? Of course, we recommend that you don't have to see anyone just yet. β
Friend? Guitar Hustler 999?
"Then you go out first, I'll think for myself...... By the way, that friend, call him in. β
The white coat whispered a few words and left the ward together. After a few minutes, a person hurriedly came in from outside the door, very thin, with a sharp mouth and a thunderous face, which reminded the young man of three words: Sun Monkey.
This foreigner was by no means his friend, he had never met this person, and that was his first reaction. And in the next second, he was stunned, and the information of this person was suddenly reflected in his mind: Grant - a first-year freshman at the Republican Military Academy, in the same class as him, is his only friend!
I'll go! Did you cross over?
At this moment, a large number of memories flooded into the boy's mind, and he reacted to Grant's worried eyes for a while before he could forcibly digest the information.
He crossed.
It's a parallel universe that resembles a Star Wars Eve background! His name is Lynch, and he is an orphan who grew up in a welfare home. With his intelligence and diligence, when he grew up, he stood out from hundreds of millions of people and was admitted to the Military Academy of the Republic of Mimatar. Seven days earlier, on his way home, he had an accident. A floating car in the air suddenly exploded, and the falling debris stabbed him all over his body, and he was taken to the hospital for five days. Just when all the doctors thought he wouldn't survive, a miracle happened, and the soul of an inconspicuous teenager on Earth crossed over. Two days later, the doctor detected his brain wave signal through the monitor, which led to the previous scene.
"So, it looks like I'm really dead." Lynch laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Hi Lynch, how are you going to die, aren't you alive? Don't worry, I asked the doctors and they said you're completely fine. Rest for a day or two, and when the blood flow in the limbs is stable, you can be discharged. β
Then Grant sat down on the edge of the bed and said as if comfortingly, "Actually, that's pretty good." β
"yes, that's good. At least alive, no matter what world it is. Lynch sighed.
Grant didn't understand anything else in this, nodded in agreement: "Anyway, you're fine, you see, that damn floating owner lost you 200,000 ISK, and you will have money all of a sudden, and if you make it together, you may be able to buy a ship." You know, only the rich kids own their own boats. Moreover, you are injured, and the bet with Oak will naturally not be able to proceed. Although he is very dissatisfied, it is not your fault, and he can't accuse you of taking the initiative to escape. As for the gossip...... Forget it, don't worry about that, we are not treated by the children of rich families in the first place, so it's nothing. β
"What bet?" Lynch couldn't remember such a thing.
Grant was stunned for a moment, and then understood: "Hey, that's fine." I'll just tell them it's a concussion from the injury......."
"Wait, I really don't remember this, tell me about it."
"Okay then-" Grant looked at him worriedly for a while, then nodded: "Anyway, the gambling appointment time has passed, I have to persuade you again, don't agree to this kind of thing in the future, although I am greedy for money, but I only have a friend like you, I don't want to ......" He saw that Lynch's eyes were not good, and quickly got back on track, "Ice beauty Cardia, you haven't forgotten, the one you have a crush." Oak wants to date Cadia and is rejected. That day, Oak got caught up with Kadia again, and you ...... Hey, you're a hero to save Meibei, according to me, that's stupid! Belch...... Okay, okay, anyway, Oak looks down on us, saying that we poor families are not qualified to study at military academies and are not qualified to drive warships. It's a gamble like this, it's some anyway, and Kadia doesn't necessarily look at you differently......"
"What exactly is the gambling method? What about the stakes? "What are you kidding, being rich and stupid is what he Lynch was most willing to do when he was an earthling! The sentence "PI and C suffered heavy losses" immediately made the rich second-generation CEO of a certain legion take over more than 1,000 of his Raven-class battleships.
"Didn't you, you forgot so cleanly?"
"Say it quickly!"
"Hey! The gambling method is very simple, the popular way of the academy, go to the academy to apply for a combat simulation - originally our freshmen were not eligible to apply, anyway, Oak has money, he can handle it - and then carry out battleship heads-up. Ships and equipment are in charge of the Oak. If you win, you can win 100,000 ISK, and if you lose, you won't lose money, that is, at lunch, kneel down and call him three times at the door of the restaurant in our courtyard: Grandpa Oak, I was wrong. Hey, this rich kid isn't a thing! β
"Battleship heads-up? Hehehehe......" Lynch laughed weirdly and asked, "What battleship?" What equipment? How could he be responsible for dispatching the battleship in a simulated battle? β
Grant was a little dazed, and exaggeratedly reached over to touch Lynch's forehead, and said, "You don't have a fever, do you?" This is also forgotten? β
"Concussion!" Lynch pointed his head and shrugged helplessly.
"Okay." Grant had no choice but to explain accommodatingly: "The battleship must only be the lowest-level lumberjack frigate, and the equipment is all ordinary and can be configured at will. Although Oak's family is rich and powerful, it is not enough not to take high-level warships seriously, and his family is not so powerful. The location is at our academy's actual combat training base somewhere in the system. Within a radius of 500 kilometers, free attack, when one side of the ship explodes, the fire system will automatically lock, or either side ejects the escape pod, the fire system will also automatically lock. β
"How many ISK ships are in the Lumberjack class? Equip a whiteboard - I mean, how much ISK is a full set of normal gear? β
"This ...... Well, the price of a Lumberjack-level star field is around 300,000 ISK, and if it is complete, it will be about 500,000. β
"How much ISK do you spend a month?"
"Me? We're about the same, and the cost of a month is about 2000ISK if we save money. β
"Good! His grandmother's, bet with him! Hurry up and go to him and make a new appointment, I said buddy...... I said Grant, you're my only friend, since that's the case...... Cheap you kid! Young master, I have always been hungry brothers if I have food, change the bet, nothing else, just bet on ISK, win or lose 200,000, if you win, our brothers and sons will be half of each other! The young master has money in his hands now, doesn't he? I'm not afraid that he won't gamble, the rich second generation, hehe, if Lao Tzu doesn't kill him, he won't be the king of single waves! β
Grant stood up and stared at Lynch dumbfounded, as if he never knew him.
Seeing him like this, Lynch was secretly amused, struggled to get up with the pain all over his body, and said, "Don't look at me like that, the young master is no longer the person you know!" Reborn, you know? Hehe, follow me well, let you see how the 300 million skill point god who is the first in the whole server unifies the universe! Follow me to eat and drink spicy food, and I promise that you won't die! β
"You...... You...... I'm going to call a doctor...... Come and take your temperature......" Grant felt a chill, shivered subconsciously, and fled from the ward as if fleeing for his life.
Lynch laughed, tearing his body with a burst of pain, he snorted and yelled at Grant's back: "By the way, help me go through the discharge procedures!" β
