Chapter 24: The Gambling

"No, I know that. It is said that there are other villages around Rotten Flesh Village, but I haven't seen them before. ”

Bai Gang spread his hands, with a helpless face.

This made Gu Cheng feel a slight toothache,,, what secrets are hidden in the Rotten Flesh Village? Now it feels a bit like a paradise, completely disconnected from the outside world, and can only be transported by the wasteland train.

"Soon-to-be-born students of the Great Goblin School of Dark Magic, I, Ba Jin, have heard your conversation and feel that it is time to give you a little answer. No need to thank, hahaha! ”

Ba Jin, who was sitting in the driver's seat, ran to the center of the car at some point and began to speak to the freshmen who were whispering around him.

This sudden change made Gu Cheng slightly stunned. I didn't feel the other party's approach at all, as if it appeared out of thin air,,, the other party was very strong.

But a driver, what do you talk to us about?

"Rotten Meat Village is a good village-level security station under Shanjin Town, which is mainly responsible for transporting a steady stream of newborns like you to Shanjin Town, and of course it is also a well-developed support base. In a village like this, there are still seven or eight of them under Shining Gold Town. This time, my goal is to bring all of you freshmen back to the Dark Arts School in Shining Gold. ”

Ba Jin began his speech in such a low voice! The whole action is extremely skillful, and at first glance, it looks like an old man who paints a big pie.

This goblin took the initiative to popularize science, which gave Gu Cheng a bit like showing off.

That's right, it's that very pompous show-off mentality.

"Our great goblin clan has built this village for the sake of common prosperity. And in this town, an academic exchange school was established without prejudice, without segregation, and any race could join it. Our aim is to spread knowledge and eliminate the discrimination and hatred of the dead because of their race in life......"

"Every student who studies at the Goblin Dark Magic School will have a good education and the opportunity to exercise. Believe me, in a few years, you won't regret your decision today....."

Balabala.....

Except for the beginning paragraph, it has some value! The words that follow are like a lullaby, extremely boring. His eyelids narrowed slightly, and Gu Cheng, who was no longer a dead fish, suddenly felt like sleeping.

This long-lost situation made him suddenly have the illusion of returning to that period of Blue Star.

"Mr. Barkin, the Rotten Flesh Village you just mentioned is a safe place. So does it mean that Shining Gold Town is not so safe? ”

A freshman saw the opportunity and asked a sharp question.

None of the people present were three-year-olds, and they listened to a lot of descriptions, what a beautiful scene. But there is nothing to say about what price you want to pay and what the environment is. How can this not arouse suspicion?

Ba Jin was suddenly interrupted, and his face was slightly stiff. He opened his mouth and wanted to continue the words he hadn't finished just now, but he met dozens of pairs of skeptical eyes.

"Okay, okay, this year's freshmen are really not to fool. Everyone should have a so-called safe house! I have enough time today, so I'll tell you more! It is not an exaggeration to say that the safe house can be expanded in size for some incredible changes, or miraculous evolutions. ”

Ba Jin's face flushed slightly, and his eyes were full of praise for this miraculous creation.

"There are many directions for the evolution of the safe house, and of course, this premise is also closely related to the strength of your tomb owner. The safe house will have a certain ability to change when you really step into the consummation of the underworld, that is, when you truly become a qualified dead.

Taverns, restaurants, trolleys, etc., these are all achievable. And the village and the town are all safehouses that have evolved step by step. ”

"However, with the addition of evolution, the control of the safe house will gradually decrease. For example, like your carrion village, has there ever been a relatively weird and terrible thing in the village?

Probably not!

The only dispute is just a small fight between you little.

In fact, there are hardly any wild creatures with a particularly high intelligence within 100 miles of the village. ”

The goblin Barkin's thin, diminutive body kept moving back and forth in the hallway. The eyes of the freshmen followed his silhouette as they kept moving, making sure they didn't miss any details.

The same is true for Gu Cheng, and even many questions in his heart have corresponding answers at this moment.

"And if the village evolves again, the town! The suppression of wild creatures will be lifted, which means that the townspeople will often react unfavorably to wild monsters entering the village. ”

Ba Jin paused for a long time when he said this, but he never immediately began to mean the following. This made the group of more than 80 freshmen waiting on the side uncomfortable, which can be described as scratching their hearts. If it weren't for the strength and identity of the other party, maybe such a disconnected dog would not have lived to the next day.

Ba Jin, who provoked the anger of the public, did not seem to have the slightest sense of making mistakes. patted his palm, grinned and laughed twice, which directly filled the anger value of the surrounding freshmen.

"Okay, okay, there's enough popularization today, don't be too greedy. It should take about two days before the train reaches its final destination. In order to make everyone feel less bored during the journey, there is a gambling hall specially arranged on the train! The environment is beautiful and worth looking forward to. ”

Gu Cheng looked at the goblin who was walking towards the locomotive again, his mouth was pulled, and his face was black.

Goblins are really a wicked race.

Standing up, Gu Cheng tidied up the corners of his clothes. His eyes glanced at Fenrich and Bai Fierce, with a playful expression.

"Would you like to play a few tricks with me?"

Fenrichie looked at herself in surprise, a little hesitant. Bai Han snorted directly and refused.

Gu Cheng asked casually, and didn't pay much attention to them. Walk from the node of the first carriage to the second carriage.

There is a clear font that says "High-end District"!

But the moment his figure disappeared, no one saw the wicked smile on his lips that turned up slightly.

"Looks like I've learned the bad taste of goblins!"

When I opened the small door of the cubicle, there was nothing extra except for three large tables and dozens of iron-legged high chairs around it.

There are only three tables in the whole space, which seems slightly empty.

The three robot puppets stood next to the three tables, and when they saw Gu Cheng walking in, they all bent down 90 degrees!

"Welcome."

"You're welcome!"

Gu Cheng was very relaxed when he came here, he didn't have so many eyes on his body without reservation, and the whole person was much more comfortable.

"Let's talk about the rules of the game!"

"Yes, sir....."

The intelligence of the robot is obviously much better than that of the strange flint train.

Thinking clearly and speaking fluently. The tone is soft, and it is clearly not the noise caused by mechanical friction.

This also made Gu Cheng slightly interested.

It seems that although the world has a bit of science and technology, the level of science and technology is still quite high.

The whole room is played a game called "Devil's Cards".

The game is also very simple.

A card game that is somewhat similar to Blue Star. A deck of 54 cards, remove the big and small ghost kings, leaving the remaining 52 cards. Each person is dealt three cards, and the rank is compared according to the rules. It can be played with a minimum of two people or a dozen people together.

Obviously, this Ba Jin, as a bookmaker, will definitely choose the latter.

Three tables, each with a different minimum share, 1, 5, 10 from low to high!

Gu Cheng sat at the table with the smallest share, ready to try it first.

According to Gu Cheng's understanding, in each round of card dealing, the participants in the gambling game must invest 1 coin into the prize pool. The winner of the round will receive all the Stygian coins in the prize pool! (Excludes the banker's tax!) )

After each player has three cards, they need to make a statement in turn, either to raise the prize pool or to give up until the last player wins. Each raise must not be less than one coin.

Tsk tsk, 25% tax.

"It's really dark." Gu Cheng muttered, put one of his daggers on his seat, and turned around to ask about the robot next to him.

"Is there a convenient place?"

The robot's steel-forged body writhed slightly, making a sound of gear clicking.

His eyes flashed with a slight green light and looked at Gu Cheng for a long time, as if he was understanding the meaning of Gu Cheng's words!

"This gentleman, if you want to excrete, you can go through the portal over there. Also, do you need to reserve this position? ”

The soft and glutinous voice seems to have endless magic, tickling in the hearts of people who scratch it, but it is a pity that there is too little effort in the production of faces.

Walking into the bathroom, Gu Cheng relaxed. It felt like it was almost time, so I slowly walked out of it.

If there was a cigarette, Gu Cheng felt that he might be able to wait a little longer.

Pity!

After a period of refreshment, Gu Cheng really saw the scene as he expected.

The seats here are packed, large and small. The freshman who didn't grab the seat was driven away by the robot with a curse. It's impossible to sit here and watch.

Those who want to take advantage of the loopholes have been taught to be human by the three robots with soft voices. After a fat beating, they all honestly returned to their original seats!

It's a pity that their butts still can't reach the chair under the ass.

Ignoring the unlucky guys who were driven away, Gu Cheng returned to his place and sat down! His eyes calmly glanced at the gamblers around him, with an indifferent face.

The cards on the table had already begun, and Gu Cheng watched it quietly. Anyway, everyone is a novice, and Gu Cheng doesn't believe that he is the guy who has no pennies on him when he arrives at the destination.

However, it is also foreseeable that when they reach their destination, there are many people who have been squeezed out of the last drop of value.
