Gaiden 3: The Demon (I)
Gaiden 3: The Demon (I)
A steamship docked at the dock, full of blonde foreigners, one of the men in a suit smiled as he looked at this strange landβhis teeth were sharp, shark's.
He looked incredibly scary, except that no one noticed his weird and rather unnatural teeth.
His name is Zero, and he's a true demon with the ability to pause time. It's not the first time he's set foot on this land, and the last time he came here, the name of the country here was still "Ming".
Zero looked back at his companion who had crossed the ocean with him, a man in a white suit. This guy was still drinking, and his body smelled of alcohol, but he didn't see him drunk. He is also a demon, named Rum. His ability is the eye of discernment, and he is a demon who can see into the future.
"Aren't we going to Mei's hotel for a drink?" Zero glanced at Rum, "You've been drinking since you got on the boat, will you still be able to drink it later?" β
"Of course! Don't look at who I am! Rum laughed, and poured the wine into his mouth.
At this moment, a spatial gate appeared from behind the two demons. A teenager in a white trench coat and a hood walked out. The boy was dressed in an avant-garde fashion, as if he had traveled back in time from another era. Interestingly, the boy had some gear marks on his clothes, and his shoes also had this strange mark, and even the ornaments on his body were gears.
This gear boy is also a demon, and his name is Men. He is a demon who travels freely through time and space.
The reason why the three of them came here was because Rum, a drunkard, was going to drink in the hotel of the charm, and the other two were bored when they were idle, so they came with him.
"Aren't we capable of teleportation?" The door said, "Why do you have to come here slowly with this broken ship?"
"Think about it, if someone with a powerful magic like us suddenly appears on the docks, the powerful youkai nearby must also notice us, right?" Rum laughs, "Something interesting is going to happen next."
"Interesting thing?" Zero Door asked.
"You were first summoned by humans in the casino, right?" Rum smirked, "You haven't lost since, have you?" β
"That's true." Men's tone changed and he asked, "So, what do you want to say?"
"I'm afraid you're going to lose." Rum laughed.
"When it comes to gambling, I don't think I'm going to lose!" The door said unconvinced.
Zero ignored the two people arguing, but looked around, looked at the humans here and said, "Here, it's really changed......"
β¦β¦
The sun is dark, and the black magpie flies.
Twilight looked up, and it seemed as if every crow was flapping its wings and repeating the same rhythm, as if they were resonating with something, fearing something.
The crows left at the same time, which was not a good sign. Moreover, Twilight could feel some subtle tremors of the ground beneath her feet. The aura of this land has weakened a lot.
"There's something big going on...... "Twilight muttered.
He searched for the flowing aura in the air, inquiring about everything around him that was wrong. But it didn't work, he didn't plan to give up unleashing his spiritual power to expand the scope of the search.
The breath of the wind, the flow of water, and all the spirits of the earth were helping him to find it.
"Found it, at the docks!" As she spoke, Twilight sped all the way.
He also felt a little strange, he didn't know why he wanted to go to the strongest person recently, he obviously came out to play, and it was obviously irrational to fight with these people. If he was forced to answer, it would probably be that justice drove him.
Twilight is no longer the kind of hot-blooded boy who acts bravely, and he doesn't want to meddle in things, and he shouldn't care. However, he had a hunch that he had to go!
β¦β¦
The neighborhood of the wharf was inhabited by coolies who transported goods at the wharf, and when they were not working, they would gamble in the small casino of the third master. As for this third master, he is a businessman, dealing with foreigners all day long, and he also knows a lot of people from the government, and he is the head snake here.
No one has ever dared to smash the third master's field, until today there were three foreigners in the field. These three people are like being possessed by the god of gambling, and they will win every gamble.
Seeing that even the casino was about to lose money, the third master hurriedly asked his subordinates to "invite" unrelated people out, and he personally compensated the three foreigners for a gamble.
The third master, who was born in a wealthy family, has not learned since he was a child, and the friends he has made are all fox friends and dog friends. But the third master learned a lot from them, especially the tricks of gambling. Suffice it to say, he gambled very well and rarely lost.
His men stood around the table, especially the ones standing behind the three foreigners, who also had a foreign gun in their pockets.
Do you know why the third master always wins? Because whoever won him was dead. Killing foreigners will inevitably attract people from the government, but in his opinion, this is just a small problem that can be solved with money. All he had to do was find a few substitutes for the dead ghosts!
The third master rolled up his sleeves, and his wide right hand pressed on the new dice jar. Listening to the crisp sound of the dice in the dice jar, he looked at the foreigner with sharp eyes, and sneered: "Three please, buy big or small, buy and leave."
The man in the hoodie was not tall and could not see what he looked like. But he will put all the money on it every time, and he will win.
It's so weird! The people who work in the casino are all people that the third master can trust, and they have no reason to help a few foreigners. The third master concluded that they must have played some tricks.
"Small!"
As before, the hoodie pressed all the money up. The third master was so angry in his heart that his eyes were red, "Buy it and leave!" β
The man in the hood was still stable, and he didn't take the third master in his eyes at all, "Shake the dice." β
"Humph!" The third master began to shake the dice, as a ** lake that has been in the casino for many years, he can naturally shake the dice to the points he wants.
"Open!" As he spoke, the third master opened the dice jar.
What makes people stunned is -
"One, two, three! Small! β
Even the third master himself was frightened, "this ......" He only said the word "this", and the "impossible" behind it was swallowed back by him. He examined each die with wide eyes and found that the dice were normal. But he can't go wrong, has he met a master?
The third master couldn't figure it out, so he had to give up. "Give them money!" The third master stood up straight and walked out angrily.
When he walked out the door, there were gunshots inside as he had expected. "Phew!" The third master spat on the ground, "Foreign devils! β
Suddenly, the third master noticed that something was wrong, and the room seemed to be shaking. He looked back and saw that his men had just flown out! I can still listen to the screams of my subordinates one after another!
The third master was so frightened that his soul was scattered, who would have thought that these three foreigners could fight so well! Some of his men hung from the windows, and some of them went through the roof and fell hard.
In the blink of an eye, the third master's subordinates all lay down.
The third master has been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and he can be regarded as a person who has seen the scene, he knows that he has encountered a ruthless character this time, but he always has to think about his own face. Therefore, he put down a cruel sentence -
"You have a kind! Wait until I'm going to call someone! β
Saying that, he didn't dare to make a big deal out of it, and if he killed them secretly, he could find a replacement for the dead ghosts, and blatantly bring people here, didn't he push himself into the fire pit?
He also said an angry word, and then ran away like the soles of his feet were smeared with divine speed!
