Chapter 13 Gambling on life

The girl wondered, "A gamble?" ”

"Hmm."

Ji Xun nodded, his eyes shining like torches, and his tone was firm and calm: "Bet on whether my reasoning is correct." ”

β€œ...”

Hearing this, the girl really couldn't understand what her teammate was thinking.

The guy's tone was so calm that no fear or apprehension could be heard.

Instead, I heard a kind of gambling life... Eager?

He wants to take the initiative to gamble with monsters?

This guy isn't afraid of death!

At the moment, only one word came to her mind: crazy.

......

Probably because of the phosphor, or Ji Xun's crow's beak.

Not long after the two of them stopped, a foul smell suddenly hit, and a kobold monster teleported in front of them.

Face to face, the terrifying sense of oppression of the A-class calamity is like substance, making people's scalp tingle. And the monster of the curse system also gives people a kind of infinite mysterious horror as if facing the abyss.

However, the monster chose not Ji Xun, but stood in front of the mechanical arm girl.

The girl's expression changed suddenly, her expression darkened, and she cursed secretly: "Bad luck." ”

So many people found her, and they could only sigh that they were unlucky.

But even at this time, she was not in a desperate situation.

The mercenary can't do anything about this calamity, but that doesn't mean she doesn't.

The girl has an ancient relic on her body that can forcibly teleport out of the space of the copy, and once she uses it, she can go out immediately.

The only drawback is that after using that treasure, you can't bring out all the things you get in the space.

Including the unavoidable [Witch Pituitary Gland] that I got before.

I missed it this time, and I don't know if I can find such a suitable career material again.

She didn't want to give up until she had to.

But now looking at the hideous and hateful face of the kobold in front of him, he is already in a desperate situation.

There is no choice.

The mechanical arm girl's heart was gloomy for a while, what a pity.

At the same time, I feel sorry, as soon as she leaves, her teammates will definitely die, and she clearly promised to do her best to protect it.

But this is also a situation that she is powerless to change.

Ay...

Sigh slightly.

However, before she could consider using that special relic to force her to leave the dungeon, something unexpected happened.

She never expected that at this moment, a provocative question suddenly came from her ears: "Do you dare to bet with me?" ”

The girl's eyes widened, and she looked at Ji Xun who was talking beside her with incredulity.

For a moment, it seemed that his thoughts were frozen.

After being stunned for a moment, she understood what Ji Xun had done.

This guy...

He's provoking monsters?

He's provoking monsters!!

Sure enough, the monster could endure this riding face taunt?

For gamblers, there is nothing that they dare not gamble.

It immediately gave up its current goal and turned its face to look at Ji Xun, with a sarcastic smile on the dog's head: "Which is the ace of spades?" ”

......

This unbelievable scene was staged, and the girl with the mechanical arm was completely stunned.

Her eyes were full of puzzlement, this guy actually saved himself?

But why did he do that?

Yes, it's a partnership, but it's not so much...

At this moment, the girl finally understood what he meant by "we" just now.

This guy said before, "If we get chosen", let her run first.

In other words, no matter who the monster finds, he is already prepared to face the monster?

But this...

No one has survived the Gambling Dog yet. Why did he do it?

The girl with the mechanical arm really couldn't figure it out, her eyes looked at Ji Xun, and she suddenly had some subtle complications about this temporary teammate.

......

Our Lady of Ji Xun is possessed and sacrifices herself for others?

No!

It was absolute sanity that allowed him to analyze the current situation clearly.

This bodyguard teammate is dead, Ji Xun can be 100% sure that he will not survive in the future.

The probability of those well-armed mercenaries surviving is extremely low, let alone themselves?

Any little monster can bring him a deadly crisis.

So there is no point in running away now, except to live a little longer.

If you can't kill this kobold, you will definitely die in the end.

What's more, there is a more important factor.

He needed to test a conjecture.

Now he had enough information, and a little clue was strung together in his mind.

He has already understood some of the "rules of the game" in this extradimensional space.

That's how he opened his mouth.

The 30% exploration of the dungeon has just begun, and only after verifying those conjectures can he feel that he really has a chance to clear the dungeon alive.

It is undeniable that there is an element of gambling in this verification process.

But for Ji Xun, if he is still indecisive in his own judgment, how boring that kind of firewood and grass life should be.

Furthermore

I had a thirsty idea in my heart that I couldn't bear it anymore.

He really wanted to gamble.

Gee.

What to bet on,

Got a gambling thrill?

.......

"I choose..."

Ji Xun had a calm look on his face, and deliberately delayed for some time.

Looking at the struggling girl beside him, he also guessed that this teammate was probably going through some complex psychological activities.

But staying here is not a good choice.

He raised his eyebrows and gave him a quick look.

Seeing this, the mechanical arm girl's expression was entangled for a moment, as if she felt that someone else had saved her, and it was very immoral for her to leave him and escape.

But looking at Ji Xun's urging gaze, her eyes lit up, and she knew that it was pointless to stay for a long time, so she said, "Take care!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the whole person quickly evacuated towards the depths of the corridor, and his back disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The teammates are gone, and the last bit of the accident is gone.

Ji Xun had no worries in his eyes at the moment.

At this moment, it was as if the beast in my heart had been awakened, and a sense of excitement that tingled my scalp came to my heart.

He looked at the monster in front of him, without fear, but the corners of his mouth raised a provocative arc.

Like a clown walking on a tightrope, even if he falls off his footing, he still has a weird smile on his face.

The monster looked at him too, with a sneering face.

"I'll pick this one."

Ji Xun put one hand in his trouser pocket and made a choice.

He picked a random card and turned it over.

A magical scene appeared.

The "Ace of Spades" pattern appeared on the card that was turned over.

The gambling dog on the opposite side looked at this scene, a sarcastic smile still hung on his face, but his expression was already stiff, as if he could speak: How is it possible!

For a moment, the gambling dog seemed to understand something.

I seem to have lost a second of my memory just now: I was mentally disturbed!

But rules are rules.

The established rules of the curse never changed that.

At this moment, this [Spell Gambler] is like all gamblers, trying to grasp the last straw and survive.

But the curse has come like a sea of mountains.

Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at the kobold in front of him, and smiled brightly: "It seems that I am lucky, I guessed correctly." ”

The kobold didn't have time to say anything, and the vitality in his eyes quickly dissipated.

It's a gamble of life.

The monster lost the bet, and the curse died on the spot.

Ji Xun looked at the catastrophic corpse that fell in front of him, and let out a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a certain morbid pleasure brought by the stimulation made him feel as if his soul had been sublimated.

......

Although Ji Xun played poker well, he was not arrogant enough to compete with A-level calamity gambling skills.

Like a thousand monsters, he also used a little dishonorable means.

The hand in his pocket is the [Witch's Gaze] skill card that he got from hunting the Fallen Witch before.

When released, it can cause mental hypnosis to targets within range.

The [Spell Gambler] on the third floor is much more threatening than the [Fallen Witch] on the second floor.

But in terms of mental power, there is a high probability that the latter is stronger.

If you don't exempt this spell, it will also cause at least 1 second of forced hypnosis.

When drawing cards just now, Ji Xun used this hypnosis and didn't give the kobold a chance to make a thousand, so he opened it directly.

If you're lucky, you just got it.

Even if he didn't select it, time allowed him to open another one.

Sure enough, he won.

It also confirmed his conjecture.

......

As soon as the calamity died, a cloud of green light slowly condensed on the monster's corpse.

Ji Xun looked at the card floating in the light cluster, confirmed the conjecture again, and muttered: "Sure enough..."

【Gambler's severed hand】

Quality: Silver

Explanation: One-time mystical spell skill card; After release, cast a curse spell on a single target below the second order whose mental power is not higher than 100% of its own, with a 50% chance of triggering and death; The curse of defeat reverses, unleashing the same amount of damage;

The monster burst out with another skill card, which was the weird curse gambling technique.

Forced 50% mortality rate, very strong!

It's also incomprehensible!

Ji Xun carefully read the effect of the card, and a flash of wisdom flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, he finally determined something.

It was indeed a gamble.

But the bet is not actually a choice of luck, nor a thousand skills, but an understanding of the rules of space.

Since you can't kill the boss by force, you can only kill it by rules.

This is what Ji Xun wants to verify.

On a deeper level, he understood the thinking of the designer of this extradimensional space.

......

The A-class calamity [Gambling Dog] died, the mana in the monster's body lost control, Ji Xun stood next to the corpse, and the inspiration appeared again.

"Mana is out of control, corrupted by pollution, -0.02 CON

There is also a glowing substance on the chest of the corpse, which is probably another extraordinary material.

But Ji Xun doesn't have that magical space containment card.

Even if you cut out the material, it's hot.

However, at this moment, at the corner of the corridor not far away, a figure slowly walked out.

It's a teammate with an unbelievable face.

Monsters can teleport to find people, so there is little point in escaping.

The mechanical arm girl hid not far away from the vent, which was the limit of her perception distance.

Originally, I thought that I would wait for the aura of my temporary teammate to disappear and then run away.

But I didn't want to wait for a moment, didn't wait for my teammates to die, but I felt that the aura of calamity suddenly disappeared?!

I can't believe it, but it's the truth.

Ji Xun watched her return as promised, and smiled lightly, his teammate was still angry.

The mechanical arm girl looked at him, then at the corpse on the ground, her expression changed slightly.

The guy, who was probably dozens of times weaker than himself, actually killed the curse-based A-class calamity alone?

It's like a dream.
