Chapter 954 Rules

Latest website: Hearing Claude's words, the players' expressions turned cold.

In a deserted and restricted place, I encountered a powerful and strange-looking humanoid creature, who invited me to participate in a game in which I might lose my life.

This matter seems suspicious no matter how you look at it.

The players exchanged glances silently. With their strength, they could walk on flat ground with swords and seas of fire, so naturally they couldn't be frightened by mere threats.

Hohenheim took a half step forward and said with a smile: "How about this, Mr. Claude, you can directly show us the way. We can provide food supplies, gold, silver, jewelry, or other items..."

"Huh? Is there something wrong with your brain?"

The three-armed weirdo mocked unceremoniously: "What role do you think gold and silver jewelry can play in this primitive forest?

Don't pollute this land with the outside world's thinking that is full of copper odor.

Either start a match with me, or get lost and don't waste my time. "

Hohenheim still kept a smile on his face and was not angry at all because of the other party's insults - in many script tasks, some characters with weird behaviors have their own set of thinking logic.

Just like NPCs in video games, there is only room for one thing in the brain.

As a first-tier player without a doubt, he had seen this situation many times. He had already calmed down and no longer cared about being scolded. Instead, he began to think about how to avoid risks and squeeze out benefits.

"Well, we don't mind playing games,"

Hohenheim exchanged glances with other companions, then turned to Claude and said, "But before we start, we want to know how the game will be played and what the rewards will be."

In this script mission, they were dropped at the edge of the forest. After walking a certain distance, they encountered an NPC, which triggered the plot.

According to past strategy experience, the relatively loose task time limit often implies that players have multiple ways to clear the level. Obviously, this NPC is a part of the strategy process, and perhaps an important part.

The players present are all smart and courageous. With their basic attributes and rich equipment and props skills, they are enough to cope with various challenges. No matter what the conventional game method is, they have a high winning rate.

Even if you lose...

If that doesn't work, you can just draw your sword and carry out a just siege, capture and torture the opponent to get the information and props needed to pass the level.

Are the players good people who abide by moral standards and the spirit of contract? When there is a profit to be found? They can help the old lady cross the road? Help the owner return the wallet? Or they can become a butcher, killing people just to get meager game points.

‘There are fewer and fewer good people like me. ’

Li Ang glanced at his companions who silently asked Hohenheim to be the negotiator, and instantly guessed what they meant. He sighed silently in his heart, crossed his arms in front of him, and waited to see Hohenheim perform.

"I can tell you the reward content. After all, it's only fair."

Unexpectedly, this time? Claude was quite talkative, and he waved the three bags in his hand generously. "In addition to telling you the way to the Holy Mountain, I will also give away the three bags in my hand.

I have been wandering in this forest for a long time. I have seen many outsiders like you who come to the Holy Mountain for pilgrimage, and I know all the dangers you may encounter if you want to climb the Holy Mountain.

Each of these three bags contains a treasure. If opened at the right time, it can help you solve the difficulties you encounter. "

What is this, a clever plan?

Are you Zhuge Kongming?

Hohenheim complained in his mind, and with no expression on his face, he nodded and said, "What about the content of the game?"

"It's very simple."

Claude grinned, raised the slender arm on his chest, reached into the folded skin of his chin, and pulled out a blood-stained copper coin, "I will toss this coin, you and I guess it The positive and negative sides.”

"Guess pros and cons?"

Hohenheim frowned, "That's it?"

"The specific rules are a little more complicated, but they are actually very simple,"

Claude smiled sinisterly and said: "If you agree, then let's start now..."

Before he finished speaking, he raised his arms on both sides and clapped his hands together in front of him.

Boom!

The ground beneath their feet suddenly rose, with fallen leaves and branches flying. The two were supported by a cylindrical earth platform and rose into the air parallel to the tree crown.

Hohenheim frowned slightly and glanced around. The earthen platform was three meters in diameter, just enough for the two of them to stand face to face.

The distance from the ground is exactly what everyone tested before, and is infinitely close to the height that triggers a lightning strike.

"This is a game between me and you, your teammates can't participate."

Claude waved the middle arm, and the cylindrical earthen platform automatically extended dozens of dense spikes to intercept the Kui Niu mecha trying to climb up.

"..."

Hohenheim glanced down. The situation below had not changed.

The body of the wild boar that Claude had killed fell in front of the stone pillar.

The Kuiniu mecha, David and others who had made an emergency landing stood behind the stone pillar, looking up at Hohenheim, as if they were opening their mouths to shout something to him, probably asking about his condition.

The stone platform that Claude raised on was affected by some unknown force, making Hohenheim unable to clearly observe the outside world as if it were separated by a thick layer of glass.

However, the extraordinary power is not restricted...

He felt the magic power contained in his body. The Book of Sand in his palm automatically circulated through several powerful spells without any wind. The magic power was condensed and never dispersed, and he could attack at any time.

Hohenheim thought for less than a second before making up his mind. He cast a spell that could amplify the sound effect and shouted to his companions below: "I'm fine."

David and the others standing below must have heard his voice, nodded, and stepped back ten steps, away from the stone pillar platform, maintaining a distance where they could climb up at any time to rush for help.

"are you ready?"

Claude smiled and looked at Hohenheim who turned around, and said, "Now, let me tell you the specific rules.

What you and I have to do is each choose a sequence of tossing a coin three times in a row, such as heads, heads, heads, and tails.

I will keep tossing the coin until a result is consistent with the sequence. According to the result, you win or I win, and then toss again until a best-of-five situation occurs. Fair and reasonable.

So, let's get started. "
