Chapter 441: "High Gamble" is undefeated
The crucial moment of choice brings the instant hot-headedness of the immortal soul.
He's almost about to roll out his chips, all in!
But what remains of his sanity is still tugging at his desires: he desperately recalls his previous experience with Jiang Qian's bargaining chips, and proves whether all the cards with a value of 1 or 2 have been passed?
Knowing that Jiang Qian's current hand is 2, then he can only win if his own hand is 1 or 2 - if his hand is 2 and the two are tied, all chips that have been placed at the table will be counted in the public prize pool, and he will lose all the capital that can be used to continue gambling, and the result will be the same loss.
The Undead vaguely remembers that both hands have passed.
But how many exactly? He didn't pay much attention to it, and he could only say that the probability was very small.
This situation of a high probability of winning and a partial inability to be precise made the immortal soul more and more anxious and unable to make a decision.
He clenched his chips, and his anxiety lingered: the current situation seemed to have a better chance of winning, but the risks were all in his blind spots, like a time bomb, waiting to give him a huge scare!
Cold sweat gradually appeared on the forehead of the immortal soul, and the information that could be used for his decision-making was unreliable, and every second of time passed into torment.
- Do you want to give up on it?!
6 million has been bet on the table, his confidence has become more and more meager, give up the 6 million chips, his starting point will return to the same situation as the original Jiang Qian - almost no power to fight back!
But even so, there is still a chance to breathe, what if good fortune comes to his side again?
Scold...... Relying on good luck is not a smart thing to do these days.
But what if the opponent is forcing him to fold? If you are really scared away, you are not in the hands of your opponent!
No, no, no......
Wrong!
The Immortal Soul was suddenly startled and rose from his chair.
How did things get to this point?
Originally, he was the one who took the initiative!
He can even manipulate the other party's sanity, causing the other party to languish in full view of everyone and be repeatedly defeated...... But since when did the advantage on the field turn upside down?
I've been calculated by this kid...... Immortal Soul Mind Flying:
Compared to the number of cards in his hand, he recalled more clearly the details of Jiang Qian's efforts to dismantle his beliefs by exposing the past, and in the process, he inexplicably turned offense to defense, denying and justifying, and completely fell into the rhythm of the other party!
And this is most likely calculated by the opponent: this is done in order to weaken his control.
"Hehehe, I see, hahahaha......!!"
Having figured this out, the immortal soul laughed out loud.
His laughter finally regained its original eerie rhythm, and it resounded unstoppably throughout the central gambling hall!
Jiang Qian's body shook, and his straight waist gradually bent with the rampant laughter of the immortal soul, until his elbows were propped up on the table.
He propped one arm on the table, his mind gradually becoming confused, his left hand still twisting the cards in front of his forehead, and his right hand firmly clenched the chips, gritting his teeth.
"What's wrong with him?" The Golden Eagle Martial Saint locks his eyebrows.
"That old bastard is probably going to break the net with our genius fish...... "Bai Xiaoxi snuffed out his cigarette butt and stared intently.
Although Ye Xiaojing and Sen Xi were speechless, they couldn't help but tighten their hearts.
The Golden Eagle Martial Saint didn't care: "The abilities and props have been disabled, what other means can make him so out of shape?" β
Bai Xiaoxi sighed lightly and said with a smile: "There are some small tricks that you may not like, but sometimes, it is these shady tricks that have become the key to victory." β
The copy does not give warnings or hints, meaning that the game continues.
However, after a short pause, Jiang Qian finally raised his head slowly, his tense body gradually relaxed, and it seemed that he had regained control of himself.
Then, Jiang Qian looked at his opponent with a clear expression and said coldly:
"No matter what you choose, you won't have a chance to win me."
A smile crept up the corners of his mouth, making his eyes even more determined.
The Immortal Spirit took a step back, laughter froze on his face, and a look of horror and disappointment gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Give it up......"
βοΌβ
With the ticking sound of the prompter, the Immortal Spirit slammed forward with its chipsβAll in!
In the final moment of decision, the Immortal Soul chooses to trust his instincts - take a gamble! Bet on the luck of two people, betting that his opponent is inducing folding.
As the action ended, the scene fell silent all at once.
Whether it was the Demon Cave camp where the Immortal Soul was located, or the official of the Order, everyone invariably remained silent.
Then, while everyone held their breath, the copy pronounced the verdict:
2 points to 1 point, don't use the hidden dragon, win.
Run out of chips and be eliminated!
The Immortal Staggered a step, his fingers trembling as he flipped his hand, and he saw his own point, which was the least probable 1.
"How, how could it be ......"
It turned out to be the worst outcome.
And Jiang Qian, who was on the other side, had also gotten up and was staring at him, with a numb tranquility in his eyes.
As Bai Xiaoxi and the Immortal Soul inferred, Jiang Qian's performance was indeed mixed with the elements of acting, and he wanted to add fuel to the fire, bury the line and set up an ambush, and manipulate the opponent's emotions and rationality, so that the opponent could act according to the script he had choreographed.
But now that the results are indicated, he doesn't need to waste any more energy on it.
"You, can you really see it?"
The Immortal Soul suddenly crossed the gambling table and pounced on Jiang Qian!
Jiang subconsciously dodged, and was pulled by the sleeve of the immortal soul, but the other party also tripped over it, and knelt in front of him without any image:
"Can you see that? Do you really have what it takes...... The conditions we just talked about still count, right? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Don't use the hidden dragon, you can make a price! As long as you help me with treatment, I am willing to pay any price, money, resources! What do you want? Yes? β
The Immortal Pleading incoherently, his eyes eager and fanatical.
But Jiang Qian just looked at him coldly.
For an opponent as shallow and unbounded as the Immortal Soul, he felt that it would be a waste of his lips to say more.
However, in the eyes of the fellow devils in the Western camp, this scene is as unacceptable as thunder from the sky:
"The sir...... Actually lost? β
"What is he talking about! Isn't it embarrassing to say that? Oh my God~ I can't believe it! β
"The bastard on the other side, is he teasing us?!"
"Unbelievable, where is that boy sacred?"
β¦β¦
A smiling hermit from the far east who acted mysteriously and profoundly lost to a young white-faced student opposite?
This is unacceptable neither emotionally nor intellectually.
Of course, it does not include those who already know the true gold content of this person, such as the eternal Windsor.
"Enough!"
Just when the camp was about to be in chaos, the eternal Windsor scolded and instantly stabilized the situation.
"Whether it's a mistake or bad luck, the failure of the immortal soul is ultimately inferior to others. I hope you all cheer up, we can't afford to lose in the last game. β
As the head of the team, her insight and perspective are beyond the reach of ordinary people, and the current rapidly changing scene is far from the point where she is running out of ammunition.
The most critical action at the moment is to stabilize the morale of the army and win the final round:
"Listen, we're going to do this in the next round......"
Inside the central gaming room.
The defeated immortal soul still clung to Jiang Qian's sleeve.
"You promised! As long as you win, all the chips will be given to you, and I will be my attending doctor! β
The frenzy in his eyes at this moment was the same as the way his fellow demon cave colleagues looked at him when he first entered the central gambling hall. It can be said that those who are good at manipulating people's hearts will not be spared from manipulating people's hearts.
It wasn't until the dungeon's elimination mechanism was activated that the body of the immortal soul in the dungeon fell apart, leaving a place of chips scattered.
These chips do not count towards the winnings of the round, but rather count towards the public prize pool.
At present, the cumulative amount of chips in the public prize pool has come to 73.02 million.
The chime rings again:
[Gambler: Immortal Soul, out. γ
[Please the winner of this round: Ye Xiaojing, enter the security seat of the central gambling hall to watch the game; Please help the gambler: Don't use the hidden dragon, return to the original camp and wait. γ
At the same time, the image isolation inside and outside the central gambling hall was lifted, and the public screens on both sides of the camp refreshed the chips of this round:
The Immortal Soul chips are cleared; And Ye Xiaojing's chips have surged from the initial 7.96 million to 40.1 million!
That's more than five times over!
Plus a "safe house" prize counts towards the winner's camp.
Jiang Qian looked back at his own camp to watch the battle area, and saw Princess Senxi with a radiant face and eyes full of joy, the eager to listen to the world, the smiling Baixiaoxi and the always serious Golden Eagle Martial Saint.
Honghu Yu Fei and Bai Wuxi, who had fallen into a coma during the previous melee, had also recovered and appeared in his field of vision.
Jiang Qian smiled at them and withdrew his gaze.
Then, the passage to the central gambler opened, and Ye Xiaojing stood at the door.
The path to the safe zone did not pass Jiang Qian, and the two of them paused and looked at it quietly.
Ye Xiaojing's frosty eyes were like a glacier cracking, melting into many feelings: touched, worshipped, sincere joy, and strong love!
The light in her eyes shone under Jiang Qian's eyes, and it also stirred up wisps of ripples, inadvertently, but profoundly.
Sen Xi in the battle area looked at them from afar, and it was the first time she saw such a look on Jiang Qian's face, which seemed to be described as a "sense of satisfaction", soft but powerful.
Even though the beneficiary of all his efforts is someone else, that doesn't stop him from feeling good about himself. Even because of this, this sense of satisfaction is even more real and intense.
At that moment, Senxi felt a wonderful electric current flow through his chest......
The tenderness in Jiang Qian's eyes made it difficult for her to look away for a long time.
"How did he do it?" Beside him, the Golden Eagle Martial Saint and Bai Xiaoxi discussed Jiang Qian's means of victory.
"I'm not a roundworm in his stomach~"
Bai Xiaoxi shook his head with a smile, and after a moment of silence, he continued to speak:
"If it's me, 'card marking' is the basic operation. Discard undecided hands as much as possible, deduce the winning rate of both sides based on the hands that have appeared at the end of each 10 rounds, and if you have the chance, bet heavily on the last two rounds to kill with one hit. β
"Hmm."
Golden Eagle Martial Saint Chin: "In the case of the two sides having the same chips, this method has a higher chance of winning. But once the chips of the two sides are disparity, blindly folding will only exacerbate the strength gap between the two sides, fall into passivity, I am afraid that I can't wait for the opportunity to attack, and the game is over. β
"It's true, if you want to be undefeated, it's not enough to just count cards."
Bai Xiaoxi did not deny it, and then, she said an advanced version of the approach:
"The key to the so-called big gamble is to 'understand people's hearts'. The Hidden Dragon is a clever observer, and according to the cards of the last rounds, it can be seen that the results of each round are already in his hands. I speculate that in addition to remembering the cards, he also noted down the subtle reactions of his opponents after looking at them, so that there was an additional dimension to test his own cards based on the opponent's reactions. β
Of course, this method can easily be exploited by the other side and cause mistakes. Therefore, this bet is a great test of the observation, memory, and psychological quality of both parties. I think that the hidden dragon should not use continuous touch to the weakness of the opponent and make a fuss about sensitive information, that is, to disrupt the rhythm of the opponent, and at the same time, see the real reaction of the opponent in a state of pressure, so as to calibrate his own observation and judgment. β
Speaking of this, Bai Xiaoxi suddenly laughed:
"In this way, the victory of the hidden dragon is not accidental, and the old bastard is not unjust at all. The only thing I'm curious about is, how did he break the old bastard's sanity interference? β
The Golden Eagle Martial Saint nodded thoughtfully, and said coldly: "Is that the 'little trick' you mentioned that can't see the light?" β
"Yes," Bai Xiaoxi sighed, "how did he overcome it......"
In the central gambling hall, Jiang Qian watched Ye Xiaojing enter the safe viewing seat in the gambling hall, then turned around and walked towards the passage back to the camp.
As the winner of this round, all eyes are on him at this time.
Including the high-ranking bigwigs who are observing the scene from the sidelines.
As soon as the happiness of the Immortal Revenant's defeat had passed, someone immediately noticed Jiang Qian's condition.
The first person to notice the abnormality was the Zerg Supreme Thousand Feet: "What happened to his hand?" β
At this time, the other family supremes noticed Jiang Qian's left hand.
From playing Jiang to get up and walking towards the exit of the central gambling hall, his left hand has always maintained the action of "pinching cards".
The index finger and thumb drooped naturally, but the other three fingers curled up and tightened, just like when he sat at the table and raised his hand to his forehead.
Why is that?
The Supremes subconsciously focused, and through the image of the Tianyan props, they finally saw through the clues:
At this time, Jiang Qian was moving towards the exit passage, the cufflinks of his left arm were already wet, his left hand was showing a strange redness and swelling, from the middle finger to the little finger was tightly curled and swollen, the index finger and thumb were stiff and drooping, and the thick plasma was quietly dripping down the fingertips of the index finger.
As he went, thick blood dripped along the way......
He ...... Crushed your fingers?! β
The Hundred Beasts Sect of the Ancient Tribes couldn't help but be amazed, his physical skills were at the pinnacle of his abilities, and he had an extraordinarily sensitive insight into any external injury.
"It's amazing that I was able to maintain my sanity by self-inflicted injury." I couldn't help but admire, "Be brave and strategic, no matter the cost, you are really a high-roller in the game!" β
From the perspective of the supreme status of a generation of families, this admiration is very weighty.
And the sigh of the Bear Clan's giant gate god is even more realistic: "If you can force the immortal soul thief to kneel and bow down, it is not worth using the hidden dragon!" I said, how could the old thief be so honest at the table...... It turned out that our camp was a step ahead and taught the old thief a lesson! β
"Hehe, the head of the old thief will be harvested sooner or later, and the credit of the hidden dragon will also be rewarded."
The second observation scene was peaceful, and the impression of Jiang Qian by the Supreme Beings became more and more three-dimensional. Especially the big guy who had reservations about him was also subtly adjusting his opinion.
"It doesn't matter if his injury is serious, will it affect the rest of the game?"
At this time, the master mother of the scale clan looked worried, and she was already empathizing with Jiang Qian's situation: "In this game, he is helping others, according to the rules, there is a high probability that he will continue to play in the last round." β
Mu Yun rushed and said: "The little girl Senxi can save the emergency." β
"Even if Qianlong doesn't use the next round to be eliminated, his performance has already shown his strength."
The White Tiger Venerable spoke slowly, his tone calm:
"The top priority is to find out as soon as possible what the Demon Cave Organization wants to get to 'that thing'."
β¦β¦
Jiang Qian, who was under the gaze of everyone, entered the exit passage.
The strangeness of his left hand was gradually recognized by everyone at the scene, so as to deduce the reality of what happened at the gambling scene.
Bai Xiaoxi squinted her eyes slightly, and when she saw the condition of Jiang Qian's left hand clearly, she seemed to smile clearly.
Senxi and the others also noticed the abnormality one after another, and got up and gathered at the exit of the passage.
In the opposite camp, the eternal Windsor silently stared at the mottled blood dripping on the floor, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: the immortal soul was not wronged to lose - his opponent was not only more skilled, but also more willing to "bet"!
Thinking of placing a bet, she subconsciously looked up at the public screen.
At this time, the public screens of the two camps are showing the comparison of chips on both sides:
The total number of chips in the Demon Cave camp was about 193 million, but after Duke Rose's miscalculation, the elimination of the immortal soul, and the loss of personnel who were sentenced to elimination due to the brawl in the middle of the fight, the total number of chips they held has quickly shrunk to 78 million.
On the other hand, the total amount of chips in the opposite camp is still far ahead: from the initial 275 million, it has climbed to 354 million! It is more than 4 times more than 4 times that of the Western Demon Cave camp.
Win and lose comparison: one draw and one loss.
This gap is not something that can be easily uncovered with a simple sentence of "luck" or "mistake".
Eternal Windsor has clearly realized that opponents are really tough to deal with.
"Those people on the other side...... What exactly is sacred? The Duke of Rose came to Windsor's side at this time, his expression full of anxiety, "Are they also coming for that?" β
"We'll know." Eternal Windsor's tone was cold, "But the next fierce battle is no longer avoidable." β
As Jiang Qian walked out of the passage, the originally static public screen began to scroll a new list - the list of the last round of gambling!
