Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Gambling
The place where the grain was exchanged was a huge warehouse covering an area of dozens of acres, similar to a prison, and everywhere soldiers with loaded guns were guarding and patrolling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chen Yingying walked into the door of the exchange point surrounded by everyone, and the other people in the hall all looked over to this side.
Chen Yingying secretly looked at these people in the hall, these people were obviously different from those who gathered on the periphery with dull eyes and numb faces, they all carried various weapons on their bodies, and their expressions were relatively strong, and the bloody aura on their bodies was faintly visible.
"That's right, almost all of them are evolutionaries, and there are even several second-level ones, but I don't know what the strength is." Chen Yingying made a rough count and was a little shocked.
Chen Yingying was looking at the people in the hall, and the people in the hall were also looking at him, and he was even more surprised than him.
"Who is this person? The breath on his body is actually incomprehensible? Level 2 Evolution? Or is it level three? ”
"How many food stamps do you get?" Chen Yingying walked to the window to exchange food stamps, and an old man with gray hair asked.
Chen Yingying was a little surprised, the old man is rare, at least he has not seen anyone over 60 years old until now, because the old man's survivability is too weak, and he is easily infected with the virus, and he rarely survives safely.
"Let's get an 80-ton one first." Chen Yingying said lightly.
"Wow!" There was an exclamation around them, and the people on the side began to talk.
It is rare to be able to exchange so much food at one time, and now the zombies are mutating faster and faster, and the larger cities don't dare to go at all, sometimes two or three people are killed and injured in a mission, and it is a big harvest to find three or four tons.
The old man in the window was also a little surprised: "Yes, but you have to inspect the goods first, coarse grains can't, coarse grains can only be exchanged for two tons for one ton." ”
"Let's test it." Chen Yingying shrugged indifferently.
Soon someone ran out and followed Ding Wu out to inspect the goods, and came back in a while, nodding at the old man in the window.
"Here's your food stamp, you order." Stacks of new food stamps were handed over.
Chen Yingying took a look, the largest denomination is 500 catties, and the printing is okay, although it is not as good as the paper money before the doomsday, but at least it is difficult to copy at the existing stage.
The people around him cast scorching eyes, and Chen Yingying snorted coldly in his heart, he didn't expect that the exchange was actually public. But it doesn't matter, if someone wants to beat him, then he also has to weigh how many catties he has.
After redeeming the food stamps, he returned to the hotel, and the fat boss was already looking forward to it at the door.
Chen Yingying threw him 7 food stamps, he carefully hid them, and then found a tricycle, dragged the big bags and small bags that had already been packed, and left in a hurry.
"You will go to the army to do some of this, and you will get the rest of your spare money." Chen Yingying threw Wang Liang a stack of food stamps, the amount of which was about a dozen tons.
"What's so embarrassing? Brother Hero. It's the right thing to do for you. Wang Liang nodded and said no, but he had already taken it in his hand.
Chen Yingying didn't think that this Wang Liang would steal his own food stamps, because this person seems to be slippery, but he is actually very shrewd, and he will never give up a bigger opportunity in the future for the sake of the small profits in front of him.
Unconsciously, Chen Yingying has changed from the original otaku who was stupid, staying at home all day, only playing games and reading online novels, to a superior who is well versed in human feelings and can understand people's hearts.
It seems that brutal experiences can change not only a person's body, but also a person's character and mentality.
"Brother Hero, should I take you around at night? Although the outer part is not as good as the inner city, there are still a few good places. Wang Liang collected the food stamps and said with some flattery.
"It's fine." Chen Yingying nodded, and while getting acquainted with the situation, he saw if he could hear some useful news.
After eating the dinner made by the fat man, a few people set off, originally Chen Yingying didn't want to bring Li Ruonan and Mi Mi, and felt that it was a little inconvenient to go to some places where men went, but they couldn't stand the stalking of the two of them, so they had no choice but to bring it.
Night soon fell, and the outskirts of the gathering place were pitch black.
"What? Is there no electricity supply here? "Accustomed to the days when the lights are bright at the anti-nuclear base, Chen Yingying is still a little unaccustomed.
Since the wind turbine was installed last time, and after the transformation of Lao Fu and the increase of power, the power of the base has not been stopped.
"There is an inner city, but there is no water supply on the periphery, let alone electricity, some time ago the institute wanted to dismantle the generator of a small thermal power station, but it encountered a super mutant beast, and the people sent there were all wiped out."
"How much do you know about the Institute?"
"The Institute? It's very mysterious, except that they know that their director's surname is Qin. I don't know anything else, but every once in a while they release quests that are mostly dangerous, but the pay is good and can drive a lot of people crazy. ”
"What pay? Evolutionary agents? Isn't that a side effect? ”
"There are a few side effects, but they don't compare to the benefits of evolution. Once the evolution is successful, it will immediately ascend to the sky. Many armies and gangs are rushing to ask for it, and food stamps and women are at their fingertips. Instead of being an ordinary person and waiting for death, it is better to take a risk. Speaking of this, Wang Liang's eyes were a little crazy.
"Well, don't worry, this one has a chance." Chen Yingying patted him on the shoulder and said meaningfully.
Wang Liang's body trembled, as if he understood something: "Brother Hero, don't worry, I will work hard!" ”
Wang Liang is not stupid, since he saw that the team members brought by Chen Yingzi this time are all evolutionaries, he has already understood that this man is stronger than he imagined, and following him is the best choice.
Soon, Wang Liang led Chen Yingying to a five-story building, what Chen Yingying didn't expect was that the building was actually lit up, and there were four big characters hanging on the neon sign outside the door - Capital of Desire.
Chen Yingying walked in. As soon as they entered, a row of tall, scantily clad young women brushed a large 180-degree bow.
"Good evening, sir!"
"That's good, haha!" Chen Yingying stared at it with wide eyes, while dodging Li Ruonan's eyes that were already a little angry.
"Brother Hero, the first floor is the casino, and the second floor is the bar. Where do we go first? Wang Liang introduced.
"And the casino? Aren't you afraid of people cheating? Chen Yingying was a little surprised. It stands to reason that in this apocalypse of evolutionary beings, it would be easy to do something with the cards.
"Yes, but unlike the previous casinos, the bet here is fate."
"Gambling on your life? It's exciting, go! Go inside and have a look. ”
Inside the door, there is a hall the size of a basketball court. In the center of the hall was an iron fence ring, on which two sturdy men were engaged in a fight to the death.
The edge of the ring was crowded with people, most of whom waved the pinched paper in their hands and roared all day long.
"It's a fight, what's so special?"
"One thing is different, the biggest difference between the fight here and the pre-doomsday ring is that there are no rules, and there are no deaths."
"Can an Evolver be on it too?" Chen Yingying asked.
"Of course, evolutionaries can go up, but to assess the level, they can only fight against each other."
"Yes, let's take a look." Chen Yingying nodded.
Wang Liang took out a food stamp and handed it to an attendant in a suit inside. The squire immediately led them to a small table by the ring and sat down.
At this time, the fight on the stage had come to an end, and one of the men fell to the ground with a bloody face. The other man raised his arms, circled the field, and then twisted the man's neck cleanly.
The loud noise almost tore off the roof, and some cheered and some yelled.
"Brother Hero, do you want to play two?" Wang Liang asked.
"Let's see, I'm not very interested in this."
Chen Yingying is not interested, but thinks that he loses nine out of ten bets, and it is strange if there is no cat here, otherwise, what does the gambling game rely on to make money?
"Next, we're going to have the last big game of the evening!" A small man ran up from the field, holding up a microphone and shouting.
"Ace against ace!"
"What do you mean by a trump card?" Chen Yingying asked with some curiosity.
"Oh, it's two teams, each group has nine matchups, and the winner of the two groups will play again. This kind of bet can only be seen once a month, and the stakes will be very large. ”
"Oh, that's right." Chen Yingying still lacks interest, his strength is strong, his vision is also high, and he really can't look down on the battle of ordinary people.
He pondered how to separate Li Ruonan and Mi Mi and go to the bar upstairs, and from Wang Liang's words, he had already guessed that this bar was definitely not just for drinking.
Just as he was about to get up, one of the big men in the ring caught his eye.
"Ryoko, what's the odds tonight?" Chen Yingying narrowed his eyes and asked.
"The odds are 1 to 1, what's wrong? Do you want to buy it? ”
"How much can you buy?"
"There is no upper limit, but it is very scary to have 10,000 catties in a single bet."
"Okay, I'm suddenly interested, so just buy me a 50,000 catties."
"What? 50,000 catties?! Ryoko's eyes widened, and she doubted her ears.
"That's right! 50,000 catties! ”
