The weird game of the ancient gods

Wang Li: "You must have noticed that one of us has quit the game forever, so before the game starts, we must select a new player, a stranger, to be the login player for the Origin game as usual. Holders have priority to join, so are you willing to join our game?"

Xia Yu was a little nervous. This group of people didn't know where they were coming from or whether they were in danger. The conversation that followed was likely to determine his life or death.

He pretended to be thoughtful and said, "Can I ask first, what kind of game are you playing?"

Wang Li: "Of course, it is a wise choice to understand the content of the game before making a decision, but I'm afraid I can't explain it in too much detail, because the games we play are different every time, and each game requires different gameplay. They are drawn randomly, but I can guarantee that these games are absolutely fair and rely on personal skill, wisdom, and a little bit of luck."

Xia Yu nodded, "Then will there be any punishment for losing the game?"

Wang Li smiled as if he was surprised, "You are very special young man. Every new player who joins usually asks what the rewards are for winning."

Xia Yu smiled mockingly to himself, "Maybe it's just because I'm timid. I care more about the price I have to pay."

Wang Li: "The loser of each game needs to draw a penalty card. The content of the penalty card is random and usually harmless, but occasionally it will cause the loser to bear unpredictable risks. Your previous player will draw He got a very dangerous punishment card and paid the price with his life.

Of course, none of these punishment cards are fatal. As long as you deal with them properly, you still have a chance to survive even if you draw a very dangerous punishment card. "

I see. This makes everything clear. What Chu Mo drew must be what Xuanniao calls [the gaze of death]. You can kill yourself by playing a game. This game is too hard-core. Bar.

"Then what's the reward if you win the game?"

In Xia Yu's opinion, since the punishment is so severe, the reward must also be generous, otherwise these people would come here to play after being full.

Wang Li smiled slightly: "Everything."

Xia Yu looked stunned: "Everything?"

Wang Li nodded: "Yes, the winner can get a certain number of raw stones as a reward. In addition to being used to exempt the effect of punishment cards, the raw stones can also be used to draw reward cards. The contents of the reward cards are also random. There are You may draw anything, money, treasures, mysterious technology, supernatural magic, magical martial arts, everything, anything you can imagine, anything you want, you can get it by drawing cards, of course, because it is random If you want to obtain the most valuable things, you also need a little bit of luck."

Xia Yu couldn't believe it. Isn't this too ridiculous? It sounds like it’s true. Who do you think you are, the Lord God? He couldn't help complaining in his heart, but after taking a look at Wang Li's indifferent expression, he had a feeling that the other party was not lying.

Could this guy really be the Lord God?

If all this is true, how should you choose? Xia Yu would never be able to refuse such a temptation.

On the other hand, if what Wang Li said was false and there was no martial arts magic to obtain, then the punishment card must also be false, and he would have nothing to fear.

Xia Yu thought in his mind, but did not rush to make a choice. Instead, he continued to ask, "What will happen if I refuse to become a player?"

Wang Li: "Then you can leave. Don't get me wrong. Participation in this game is entirely voluntary. Being a player is an opportunity and a challenge, but it is by no means a burden. If you don't want to participate, you can leave here at any time. And as a reward for sending you back to the game login, you can draw a bonus card for free as a reward.”

“Even after becoming a player, you can refuse to participate in the game, but if you refuse to join the game three times in a row, you will automatically be deemed to have given up your status as a ‘player’, and your game login will be recycled and handed over to the new owner.

The other party's attitude was very calm. He didn't think that the other party had any reason to deceive him. Maybe he should leave like this and get a bonus card for free. No matter what it could draw, it was all free anyway, Xia Yu thought. .

"How to draw bonus cards?"

Wang Li: "Did you see the three machines over there?

"The golden one on the right, just scan the symbol on it with your watch and then pull the lever."

Xia Yu came to the three machines.

The one on the left is black with a skull logo on it - presumably where the punishment cards are drawn.

The one on the right is golden and has a treasure chest symbol on it.

There is a white machine in the middle, but the screen is not lit. I don't know what it is used for.

Standing in front of these three machines, Xia Yu fell into a dilemma.

Do you want to play or not? If you play, there will undoubtedly be certain risks, but the benefits are also huge.

But anyway, if you feel something is wrong, you can refuse to join. At most, you will just watch the fun. If the game you randomly request is one you are good at, it is not bad to participate and win some rewards.

If I could make a lot of money, I might be able to reach the pinnacle of my life and no longer have to think about my livelihood.

After thinking for a long time, Xia Yu finally made up his mind, "I accept the player's identity."

Wang Li didn't seem surprised at all, "Welcome to the game, please complete the binding of player identity on your login."

Xia Yu nodded. He clicked on his watch and the prompt about whether to bind the player's identity popped up again. This time, he chose to accept it.

[The player identity has been bound, please provide your game code. 】

Code name? Xia Yu thought that other players seemed to be called by code names. He originally wanted to use the game name Sunset, but after thinking about it, his hands were so dark in the game. This was his new beginning, so there was no need to use such a name. It's an unlucky name. Considering that I have been wandering in the magic city for so many years without even having a house, then I'll call it "Traveler".

[Player ‘Traveler’ is optional and welcome to join the game. 】

Wang Li: "Then player 'Traveler', please take a seat."

Xia Yu sat down on the empty seat.

He felt the temperature of the seat, glanced at the other 'players' around him, and looked at the house owner expectantly. What kind of game would it be next?

Xuanniao next to him banged his arm with his elbow and whispered: "Let me tell you, you will definitely be interested."

Wang Li: "The players are all here, let's start the game. As per the old rules, the winner of the previous game will choose the game to be played this time."

As he spoke, he took out a deck of cards from his pocket. The back of the deck of cards had complex patterns that were exactly the same as the face pattern on the black door.

Xia Yuxin said that he didn't really want to play cards, right?

But Wang Li slowly spread the cards in front of him and hooked a man in a black trench coat on the right, "Leader, I remember you were the final winner in the last game, come and draw the card, don't do it." So shy."

The man in the trench coat stood up helplessly, walked over and drew a card from the pile of cards.

Turning it over, the edge of the card has lines of ice and snow, but in the middle is the pattern of a volcanic island.

Wang Li smiled slightly: "Ah, it turns out to be this [Glacier Crisis]. No one has drawn this card for a long time, but I really miss it."

As he spoke, he put away the remaining cards on the table and took out another card from his arms. The back of this card had the same pattern as the Ice Crisis card.

Xia Yu understood it immediately, so he played whatever game he drew. Each game had a corresponding deck of cards, but he didn't know what the deck of cards contained.

Just as he was thinking about it, the watch rang again. Everyone looked down and Xia Yu also looked at the screen of the watch, only to see the rules of the game displayed on it.
