Chapter 12: I Want to Take a Gamble, Too

"Damn... It's the 'gambling dog' on the third floor! How did it become an A-class calamity! ”

"This monster can't be killed, let's go!"

“...”

As in the intelligence, the bullet hit the monster as if it had been driven into asphalt, causing ripples and then recovering.

It has no lethal effect at all.

The dozen or so mercenaries all had horror on their faces.

They had all heard of the horrors of this plague.

But whoever is found by it will not survive for a lifetime!

Even the mechanical arm girl's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly reminded Ji Xun beside her: "This monster is cursed, whoever it finds, whoever it finds will die!" I can't resist that curse. ”

As she spoke, she also cursed secretly: "Damn, how can this calamity be here." ”

She still has the confidence to be tough on other monsters.

But cursed monsters can't be dealt with by conventional means.

In addition to the evil door, it is still the evil door!

Avoiding is the best option.

Ji Xun's expression didn't change at all when he heard this, but he didn't think it was bad luck.

Instead, he thinks that after encountering this monster, the strength is normal.

Before the words could be spoken, the dozen or so mercenaries showed their correct posture in the face of this monster.

The bald captain burst into applause: "Run!" ”

There was no intention of thinking about war at all, and the mercenaries chose to run away at the first time.

The bad news is that whoever this monster finds will die.

The good news is that it only looks for one person at a time.

Everyone is gambling at the moment.

It's not you who gambles that the monster is looking for.

......

But since this calamity has appeared, someone must die.

The group of mercenaries had just run for a long time, and suddenly they saw a black shadow flashing, and when they looked at it again, the gambling dog that was a hundred meters away appeared in front of the group of mercenaries like a strange flash.

Ji Xun's eyes shrank slightly, slightly surprised: "Teleportation? ”

It's one thing to hear about it, it's another thing to see it with your own eyes.

And the mercenary in front of the [Spell Gambler] didn't think that he had been chosen, and his face turned pale all of a sudden.

The bald captain and the other mercenaries couldn't bear to look at it, but they were all relieved in their hearts.

It's good that I didn't find myself.

The bald head and his eyes trembled left and right, and he didn't hesitate at all: "Hurry up, leave him alone!" ”

Everyone knows that no one is alive when they are chosen by monsters.

There is no point in staying.

As soon as the words fell, a group of people didn't care about their companions at all, and they didn't care about the safe.

The monster completely ignored the fleeing mercenaries and spread out his hands with one hand, and two glowing pokers appeared in front of him.

On display, one of them has an 'Ace of Spades' on it.

In a dazzled flash, the two cards of poker changed positions countless times.

It's a very simple two-choice bet, which seems to be a gamble on eyesight.

The monster's voice came out as low as a devil's voice: "Bet, which ace of spades is it?" ”

The chosen mercenary stood on the spot as if he was restricted by some mysterious force.

He stretched out his hand tremblingly, he didn't want to choose, but if he didn't choose, he would definitely die, and if he did, it seemed that half of them might live, "I... I choose this one. ”

The kobold looked at the one he had chosen, and the devilish terrifying dog had a sarcastic anthropomorphic smile on its face, and said hoarsely, "Congratulations... Guess wrong! ”

The answer is revealed.

When the selected card is flipped over, it is empty.

The other one is the Ace of Spades.

As soon as the words fell, the frightened expression on the mercenary's face instantly froze, and the whole person lost his life and died violently on the spot.

......

Not far away.

Ji Xun, who had just run not far away, looked at this scene and sighed in his heart: "This is a curse, such a strange way to kill." ”

I originally wanted to see how the monster kills people, but this look is completely beyond the means of cognition.

As the intelligence says, this method of killing people with instant death curses is not exempt from conventional means at all.

The group of mercenaries also saw this scene, and they were all frightened and fled faster.

However, after killing one person, the kobold teleported and disappeared from the spot again.

Before the mercenaries could react, the kobold was already in front of the mercenaries.

After all, there are more than a dozen people, and the probability of being selected by monsters is much greater.

And this time it was the monster who was chosen by the "old six" who picked the lock.

As before, the other mercenaries once again resolutely left their teammates behind and ran.

But apparently, the mercenaries also found that they were more numerous and targeted, making them easier to target by monsters. In the process of escaping, the bald captain's eyes flashed fiercely, and without warning, he shot two cards towards Ji Xun and the two in the distance.

The girl with the mechanical arm was keenly aware of it, raised her hand and raised her gun like lightning, and smashed the two cards several meters away with two shots.

However, to people's surprise, two cards burst open, exploding powder all over the ground like phosphor.

Seeing this, the mechanical arm girl instinctively dodged, but because the distance was too close, some powder was still stained on Ji Xun, who couldn't avoid it.

The girl looked at the powder, and her face changed: "It's not good, it's a 'dirty bomb card'!" This powder is bait made by the venom glands of zombie worms, and the smell has a strong attraction to most calamities... Take off your vests, let's get out of here! ”

Ji Xun glanced at the powder on his body, and although he didn't know what a worm was, he also guessed the purpose of this thing.

He said in a tone that was not too surprised: "Those mercenaries didn't do it before, but in fact, this is the plan now. In their eyes, the only value of keeping us alive is 'bait'. But it doesn't matter..."

When the mechanical arm girl heard what he said, she always felt that something was strange: I knew that you had been on guard for a long time, standing so stupidly and being hit?

But now is not the time to say more.

She led the oil bottle teammate and retreated all the way.

......

Ji Xun really didn't have any surprises.

At least the moment the bald mercenary turned around, he guessed this guy's intentions.

Ji Xun took off his tactical vest unhurriedly, and Yu Guang did not forget to keep an eye on the ongoing gamble.

He wanted to see some doorways.

The monster still took out two cards and asked the same question to the "sixth": "Bet, which is the ace of spades?" ”

The sixth child was already scared and covered with cold sweat, but this guy obviously moved his mind, rolled his little eyes, and pointed to one: "I guess this one..."

As he spoke, he grabbed the one and said, "I guess this one isn't." ”

Since the monster will be out of a thousand, the sixth is sure that the cards in his hand have been replaced, play a little smart, choose first and then say.

Then, the sixth child died violently.

I guessed wrong again.

The one in the corpse's hand was still a blank card.

The gambling dog's thousand skills are more powerful than the judgment of the sixth child.

.......

"100% violent death."

Two people died in a row, Ji Xun thought about it in his heart and understood.

It seems to be a 50% chance of survival, but in fact, the enlightenment is already obvious, this kobold will definitely "make a thousand".

So normally, no matter which one you choose, you will lose.

Monsters teleport, but it doesn't matter how fast you run.

Instead, running around in this unknown laboratory is more risky.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun slowed down when he crossed the corner, and said to the mechanical arm girl beside him: "If we are selected in a while, you can leave me alone and go first." I'll try to stall as long as I can, and with your speed, you should be able to outrun the mercenaries. Of course, if I don't die, you'll come back and pick me up. ”

The girl with the mechanical arm was stunned when she heard this, and thought she had heard it wrong: "??? ”

What she didn't say before was: If you are chosen by a monster, although I want to save you, I can't do it.

But... What does this mean?

Listening to this tone, this guy seems to think that he can survive in front of [Gambling Dog]?

Where did he get the confidence?

Without waiting for her to ask more, Ji Xun explained the motive for what she said just now: "Since those mercenaries can't kill this [Spell Gambler], then sooner or later we will have to face this monster, or other monsters." Exploring the unknown isn't necessarily less risky than facing this monster, so it's better to let those guys go to the mines first. What's more..."

“???”

The mechanical arm girl Ben watched Ji Xun stop, thinking that her temporary teammate was too frightened and lost her words.

But listening to his calm tone, which had never changed, he suddenly felt that something was strange.

But after thinking about it, she felt that this guy's words were indeed right.

Since the [gamblers] on the third floor can come to hunt them down, what about the even more terrifying mysterious calamity on the fourth floor?

Or something else?

This extradimensional space is only more than 30% exploratory now, and the crisis that can't be seen is much more dangerous than this [gambling dog].

In battle royale mode, it is simply impossible to bet on luck to avoid all the monsters.

But now, what can you do if you don't run?

The girl was conflicted for a while.

After a pause, Ji Xun's eyes flashed with an imperceptible crazy smile, and then he said the last sentence: "What's more, I also want to gamble." ”
