Chapter 3: The Game of Kings

[A new player has been detected, whether to enter the Game of Kings]

The moment Chen Qi caught the playing cards, a message was projected into his mind.

"This, this, ······"

Chen Qi was stunned for 10 seconds, and he was a little suspicious of life.

What's wrong with the world?

First there was a dice that could fulfill human wishes for free, and now there was a game of kings.

As long as you're not a fool, you can see what's weird about this game.

How much failed he was in his previous 23 years of life, and he didn't know the true face of the world.

······

[Yes], [No]

The information kept beating, waiting for Chen Qi to make a choice.

"Huh!"

"Even if it's a big pit, you can only jump first!"

The [Qiao Moya] on the back of the playing card made Chen Qi make a decision.

"[Yes]"

At the moment when he made his choice, the playing card turned into a purple light and did not enter Chen Qi's left hand.

On the back of Chen Qi's left hand, a pattern of 7 hearts appeared.

【Create a new game character】or 【Inherit the original game character】

A new choice appeared again, and Chen Qi instantly understood how the bronze dice helped him fulfill his wishes.

At the moment when Chen Qi chose to [inherit the original game role], the 7 of hearts shone with purple light, enveloping his whole person.

Chen Qi only felt like he was in a furnace, receiving a reshaping of the furnace.

In the next moment, the purple light dissipated, Chen Qi disappeared, and [Jomoya Chris] reappeared.

······

"Hahaha, it's really a new life!"

Feeling a completely strange and familiar body, Chen Qi had mixed feelings in his heart, he turned out to be [Jomoa Chris]

If this is the price of changing his fate, he seems to have no reason to refuse.

【Player】Jomo Chris (Chen Qi)

[Health Level] 4 (Note: Normal Human Average 2)

【Equipment】7 of hearts

[Skill] Flesh Manipulation, String Slash (Note: Radius of Effect 10 meters)

[Psionic Points] 30

This is Chen Qi's game data, and after checking the scope of action of the skill, Chen Qi was shocked into a cold sweat.

The bronze dice gave the location, exactly ten meters away from Jomoya.

If Qiao Moya didn't hit hard, or Chen Qi took one more step, then what was waiting for him was [Physical Manipulation].

Qiao Moya still remembered "Chen Qi's heart" before he died, obviously not a near-death whisper.

Damn, it's really close to life!

Chen Qi looked at the [corpse] with resentment, eager to break it into pieces.

But reason made Chen Qi calm down quickly, and he needed to properly clean up the aftermath of this corpse.

No one should associate [the corpse] with Jomoa Criss.

Chen Qi first removed his communicator and watch, and then carefully searched the corpse.

Probably because of the need for [Battle] tonight, the [Corpse] didn't carry many things, and Chen Qi quickly looted them.

The current [corpse] is no different from the homeless man on the side of the road, except that the clothes are more expensive.

But how to deal with the corpse itself, Chen Qi made a difficulty, he had no experience at all.

If you leave it alone, the gunshot wound in the chest is too conspicuous.

It's a matter of his own secrets, and Chen Qi certainly won't allow any flaws to be left.

······

"Woo, woo~"

There was a low whimper, accompanied by the autumn wind.

Chen Qi's hair stood upside down in an instant, and the whole person was extremely vigilant.

He felt a faint sense of threat, a very special life form lurking in the darkness.

And this kind of perception that is different from the five senses is something that Chen Qi did not have before.

This is the instinct that arises when you reach health level [4].

······

"What the hell?"

A huge black dog the size of a calf with a spiral horn on its head slowly emerged from the darkness.

Its eyes glowed dark green, like a beating flame of fire.

Fishy, decaying, Chen Qi felt the breath of death in this dog.

"Urban legends are also true?"

"The Dog of Death really exists!"

In the slums, the legend of the dog of death has always been circulated.

Whether dying of disease, starvation, or gang fighting, the corpse will be eaten by a giant black dog with a single horn if left unchecked.

Chen Qi had always thought that it was compiled by people in the slums to scare outsiders, but he didn't expect it to be true.

But doesn't this dog only eat corpses?

Why are you grinning at me?

······

Roar roar, a low roar that does not resemble a dog's barking at all, comes from the dog's mouth.

And when Chen Qi raised his left hand, about to try his skills, the dog was very interested.

But it was still very protective in front of the corpse, for fear that Chen Qi would snatch it.

"You'd better give me some clean food, or I'll break your dog's leg next time."

Chen Qi said a cruel word viciously, and then disappeared into the night.

This is probably the best way to dispose of corpses.

······

At night, Jomoa Criss walked lightly and swiftly through the alleys.

Perhaps because of the transformation of the purple light, this body is much stronger than before.

The gang members who had been aggressively searched for were long gone, and Chen Qi left the neighborhood easily.

"It's weird, my body seems to have some of [Jomoa Chris] instincts left, but it's obviously my own body."

After skillfully opening the watch and subconsciously entering the password to open the communicator, Chen Qi already felt that something was wrong.

What's even more incredible is that with a certain sense of familiarity, he found the limousine parked two kilometers away.

The car started, and Chen Qi instinctively walked in the direction of [home].

"Is this a play?"

Outside the car window, the buildings are getting more and more prosperous, and it is clear that this home is not a rental house in the slums.

Of course, from the moment he left, Chen Qi had no intention of going back again.

Anyway, everything there has been dealt with cleanly, and no one cares about his disappearance.

Soon, a luxury villa appeared in front of him, and Chen Qi subconsciously planned to stop, but forcibly got rid of this instinct and continued to move forward.

According to the lace news that Chen Qi saw, that villa is the place where [Jomoya Chris] Jinwu hides Jiaojiao.

He just played it by instinct, and he didn't have the memory of the original owner, so of course he didn't plan to deal with those women.

The car continued on its way, and after a few minutes, stopped in front of another villa.

Chen Qi casually manipulated the communicator a few times, the door slowly opened, and the intelligent robot in charge of the security work also put away the stun gun.

The Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit is another hidden abode of [Jomoa Chris].

The villa was empty, and Chen Qi was familiar with the road, as if he had lived here for a long time, and he didn't feel strange.

After eating the supper prepared by the robot chef, Chen Qi comfortably soaked in the bathtub and began to read the diary that he had just taken out of the safe.

"I'm [Jomoa Chris], and by the time you read this diary, I'm definitely dead!"

The first entry in the diary, July 7, 17643 A.D., was five years earlier.
