1738 Played to Death by Speed?

GGO, SBC Gloken.

At the northern end of the avenue that runs through the middle of the streets of Gloken City, the square in front of the tower of the Presidential Palace is usually a deserted area, but today it is crowded with countless players.

The players were having a lot of fun with drinks and food, and there were even gunshots from time to time. Combined with the surrounding neon lights and the advertisements and announcements displayed on many screens, it was so lively that it was like a city that never sleeps. Much more noisy than yesterday.

On the screen, sometimes a countdown timer will flash.

Then, naturally, the countdown to the third BoB competition began.

People watched the countdown, and shouted excitedly.

"I think it's Anfeng's turn this year."

"I also think it's dark wind."

"Who made the champion of the previous BoB competition not even participate in the BoB competition since he suddenly lost his voice this time?"

"And if the champion doesn't participate, it's natural for the runner-up to win the championship, right?"

"No, have you forgotten ?"

"This year, there is that monster."

"It's true."

"I don't know if Dark Wind can defeat that monster."

"I see Xuan."

A group of players are discussing such a topic lively.

This is not only because the BoB competition itself is very eye-catching, many people are concerned about the final result of the competition, but also because the result is closely related to the harvest of many people.

There are only 30 players who can participate in the BoB main match, but that doesn't mean that the rest of the players can watch the battle unrelated to themselves.

Before the start of each BoB competition, there will be a gambling market initiated by the operating company in GGO, allowing players to place bets on the players they are optimistic about, and spend a lot of money like betting on a horse. In the end, it will be seen who can stand out and make a lot of money a sum.

Now,

The gamble set up for the upcoming BoB tournament is ready to bet on. At present, more than half of the currency in GGO is concentrated in this square, and so are the players, which makes this place so lively just now.

"It's really a hypothetical world in a gray area in all aspects."

The person who said such a testimonial was naturally Luo Zhen who had just logged in and appeared in the square.

Luo Zhen looked at the entire bustling square.

A hologram window showing the odds of each player participating in the BoB contest hangs high in the air.

The well-dressed dealers should be the official designated NPCs prepared by the operating company. They are located in every corner, accepting the bets from the players who approached in an endless stream, so as to make money.

Information dealers who sell suspicious confidential information move around and talk to players who are interested in placing bets. They must be selling confidential player information as a means of earning information fees.

Presented here is such a huge casino.

However, due to the currency conversion mechanism, all the money flowing in this casino is linked to the real currency in the real world, which makes the nature of the entire casino infinitely biased towards the edge of crime. No wonder Luo Zhen would say that this is a place where all aspects A hypothetical world in a gray area.

"Perhaps, in other VRMMOs, there may be special types that can be gambled."

Unfortunately, none of those games have a currency conversion mechanism, which is very different in nature from the gambling that is going on here.

It can be said that there is no problem at all regarding this place as a real casino.

"It's a shame that the operating company dared to do this. If their headquarters were in this country, they would have been seized long ago."

Luo Zhen was so emotional, but he didn't have any sense of rejection.

Why reject it?

"Even if it's a gamble organized by the operating company, since it's done in the game, then half of the income here will be mine."

In this way, why should Luo Zhen reject it?

"I don't know what my odds are."

Thinking of this, Luo Zhen approached the NPC dealer, raised his head, and looked at the hologram window.

There, the odds of all participating players are clearly marked.

The odds of some little-known and small famous players who have participated in the BoB competition but failed to get any good results are naturally very high. The pot is full, but it is generally difficult for such players to win, and there are very few players who will bet on them.

The odds for the favorite to win are of course not that high.

People know that they have a great chance of winning, so of course all the money will be bet on them. If they win and the odds are still high, then the operating company will have to lose money.

Therefore, players all hope to be able to find one or two dark horses and bet on them, so as to make a lot of money. This is also the reason why information dealers are so rampant. They will definitely be tempted, and eventually spend money to buy it, but whether the information is true or not depends on the player's own ability to distinguish.

Under such circumstances, as a player participating in the BoB competition for the first time, Luo Zhen found that his odds were only a little higher than An Feng's.

In other words, from the perspective of the operator, Luo Zhen is also undoubtedly the favorite player to win.

"Well, after all the riots were so crazy before, everyone knows my strength and thinks I'm the favorite to win, it's nothing more than normal."

However, from the fact that Anfeng has lower odds than Luo Zhen, it can be seen that the operator is more optimistic about Anfeng than him.

"It should be because I think that my game time is too little after all, and I am still a super STR (muscle strength) type. In the case of low VIT (durability), it is very likely that I will be killed by the speed of the dark wind?"

Luo Zhen smiled indifferently, and then realized that Sinon's odds were unexpectedly high.

"Didn't she be the biggest dark horse in BoB this year? The odds are so high?"

Luo Zhen tilted his head in doubt, and then understood.

"Could it be because this girl lost in yesterday's preliminaries?"

That's right.

In the fifth round of yesterday's preliminaries, Sinon lost.

Her opponent was a professional player who ranked lower than her in the previous BoB competition, but since the map of the fifth round was a jungle area, it was difficult to snipe, and Sinon was inexplicably unable to concentrate, so she lost.

This undoubtedly caused Sinon's evaluation to drop greatly, resulting in higher odds, and the title of dark horse disappeared.

Rather, the title of the biggest dark horse has now been taken away by Luo Zhen, and Sinon's evaluation has dropped, which is a matter of course.

"Who told you not to concentrate during the game?"

Luo Zhen shook his head, looking like he was laughing, completely unaware that he was the reason why Shino couldn't concentrate.

and...

"You yourself also abstained and lost in the final, so you have no right to blame me."

A cold voice suddenly sounded from behind Luo Zhen, causing Luo Zhen to raise his eyebrows, shrugged, turned around, and looked behind him.

In the next second, the expected figure appeared in front of his eyes, looking at him coldly.

It was Sinon.
