Chapter 435: A Lineup of Players From the Western World
Chapter 435 "Big Gamble" Players from the Western World
[Welcome back! Distinguished gamblers. ]
The moment the copy prompt sounded in everyone's mind, the number of arrivals displayed on the public screen jumped dramatically - from the original 7 people to "8" people!
Bai Xiaoxi, Golden Eagle Martial Saint, Ye Xiaojing, Princess Senxi, Honghu Yufei, and Bai Wuhen all looked at the wide ladder with concentration.
"Haha, hahaha..."
Before seeing the person, a burst of wanton and strange laughter was heard.
Then, the haggard Di Ting Wanjie climbed up step by step on the wide ladder, holding a whole bloody snake skin in his hand.
Bai Wuhen frowned slightly.
"What is that?!"
Princess Senxi and Honghu Yufei immediately understood the ending of the Sea King, and their eyes towards Di Ting Wanjie were full of hostility.
The Golden Eagle Martial Saint was as silent as ever. Bai Xiaoxi's mouth corners were upturned and his eyes were ambiguous. Ye Xiaojing was not interested, and Jiang Qian didn't even look back.
Of course he didn't need to look back.
From the moment Di Ting Wanjie stepped into the casino hall, he saw that the last person to arrive was not the one he was waiting for.
As for the elimination of the Sea King, Jiang Qian was not surprised.
The True Spirit Spider Web recorded the entire action process. It was greed and obsession that dragged him down, so he couldn't give up the sunk cost and took risks at the critical moment.
"You seem surprised! Why, don't you want me to come back alive?"
Di Ting Wanjie teased with words, looking at Jiang Qian's allies one by one with a provocative look, and then stopped when he passed by Bai Xiaoxi, with a hint of grievance in his tone:
"When I was in danger, where was the senior?"
He no longer called Bai Xiaoxi brother and sister, but called her "senior", which meant that their alliance relationship was a thing of the past.
But Bai Xiaoxi sounded more aggrieved than Di Ting Wanjie: "I was also injured at that time."
Di Ting Wanjie did not say anything else, but looked in the direction of Jiang Qian: "It seems that Senior Xiao Longnu has also fallen."
Jiang Qian and Bai Wuhen looked at each other and did not say much.
Based on this sentence alone, he could not be sure whether Di Ting Wanjie was deliberately creating confusion or really did not know where Xiao Longnu was.
Could it be that Senior Sister really chose to leave the stage decently and gave up the assessment just like that...Jiang Qian secretly looked at Di Ting Wanjie, who came in last, again, and always felt that something was a bit strange.
At this point, all the people arrived, the main entrance of the casino was closed, and the copy prompt sounded again:
[Dear gamblers, congratulations on your successful return to the "City of Desire" casino! ]
[Tonight's gambling will be more exciting. Please go to the central gambling hall on the second floor to participate in the camp battle that belongs to the winner. ]
[Your opponents are in place, don't let them wait too long. ]
At this point, the door of the central gambling hall facing the wide ladder was wide open!
A luxurious golden road appeared in front of everyone.
…
"Faction war? What does that mean…"
"Are there other competitors in this dungeon besides us?"
As soon as the dungeon prompt was announced, the three words "faction war" quickly aroused strong reactions among the eight people.
This information was unexpected, and they were not aware of it in advance.
To be precise, most of them tacitly agreed on one thing: that is, there are only 49 subjects participating in the competition in this anchored dungeon, so as to achieve basic variable control.
But what they didn't expect was that "unexpected variables" were also part of the assessment.
The four examiners at the first observation site all showed a confident expression and expressed satisfaction with the reactions of the current qualifiers.
This unexpected effect is what we want!
Compared with the in-depth examination of the "human nature" part, another key reason for choosing the "gamble" dungeon is that this dungeon is similar in nature to the "Hungry Ghost Ending World" that Jiang Qian was pulled into, and it is also a special type of dungeon that can cross regions and races.
This is also one of the important reasons why it has not been conquered so far: because every time it is opened, 49 people will be anchored from two areas with extremely long distances to enter the dungeon, completing the screening from the first night's task to the free time on the second day; this means that the two sides that form the "camp confrontation" are very likely to have significant differences in regional culture and geopolitics.
Because of this, starting from the second night's task process, everything will become more complicated and uncontrollable.
And the four examiners believe that the talents most needed by the "Task Force" must be experts who have the ability and strategy to deal with various uncontrollable changes!
"So, what kind of lineup will the other group of super-species players they are facing be?"
Elder Helian held his chin with his hand and stared at the returned dungeon image with great interest.
Qianlong Wuyong's performance in the previous stage was "perfect", and she felt relieved and obviously relaxed a lot at this moment.
Elder Jin of the Feather Clan smiled but said nothing; the two chief examiners of the Dark Night Clan, Diexue and Swen, were also concentrating.
In the families they represent, there are subjects who have advanced to the current stage. Therefore, for the four examiners, in addition to paying attention to the results of the copy strategy, they will also pay attention to the specific performance of their family subjects.
The family supremes at the second observation site have also been whetted by the "Big Gamble" mechanism and Jiang Qian's outstanding performance. Even if there are some controversial points in the middle, it actually does not affect their interest in following the show.
At this time, in the "Big Gamble" copy.
The eight nobles who were tested, including Jiang Qian, did not have extra time to lament the unpredictable world. The copy prompt urged them to embark on the journey to the "Central Gambling Hall", the location of the faction battle.
Jiang Qian was still the first to take steps and walked towards the luxurious corridor that could not be seen at a glance.
The reason why it could not be seen was that opposite the so-called "Central Gambling Hall", there was another corridor of the same specifications, which extended to a place that was difficult to notice.
But soon, when the eight people stepped into it, they could vaguely see that there was also a group of people walking towards them on the corridor opposite the Central Gambling Hall...
Jiang Qian secretly concentrated.
He had realized that the mechanism of the "High Gambling" copy was somewhat similar to the "Hungry Ghost End" that he had been pulled into:
It was also a multi-person copy across regions and languages; it also "expanded the map" in the middle of the copy to increase the complexity dimension.
The differences between them are also significant:
"Hungry Ghosts" is an obvious long-term battle, focusing on depth and experience; while "Big Gamble" is obviously efficiency-oriented and logic-oriented.
Of course, this is also a rough conclusion based on the situation so far.
In addition, the difficulty level of the copy "Big Gamble" is one level higher than that of "Hungry Ghosts", not A, but a genuine S.
This may not be a significant difference.
After all, "Hungry Ghosts" is a low-frequency copy, and the difficulty of A-level nightmare has surpassed the difficulty of S-level hell; then will "Big Gamble" bring him new "surprises"?
Jiang Qian considered the possible subsequent situations step by step, combined with the clear information and resources given by the current copy, and conceived the subsequent possibilities.
In this process, he gradually saw the situation of the team walking on the opposite corridor:
Compared with the 8 elites of this camp, the opposite side has a full 16 qualifiers!
Judging from the number of people alone, it is double that of this side.
That is to say, after these people experienced the first night of gambling and free hunting during the day, more than 30% of the players survived!
Very strong... This made Jiang Qian faintly curious.
As the two teams approached the central gambling hall, more and more details began to emerge.
At this time, the Sky Eye camera components that followed the 8 people into the venue were still in the effective working range.
From the physical characteristics, most of these people are of Western descent, mostly white skin, blonde and blue eyes, and there are also some other races including mixed-race faces.
There are British gentlemen in tuxedos, hermits in robes and masks, beautiful women in the workplace with graceful gaits, young girls in avant-garde outfits, and tough guys with scars on their faces...
They walked firmly and arrogantly, and both men and women were full of confidence and demeanor. They really looked like a group of upper-class people who spent a lot of money and were surrounded by their own bodyguards to have fun in the casino.
It was completely different from Jiang Qian and others who had just experienced a brain-burning gambling game and a tough survival battle.
Each of them was too "clean", in good spirits, and seemed to have won easily all the way.
At the same time, Jiang Qian also keenly noticed that as the distance between the two sides shortened, the eyes of the Golden Eagle Martial Saint and Bai Xiaoxi changed when they looked at the opposite side, and even Bai Wuhen, who was walking beside him, couldn't help but frown.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Qian asked through the True Spirit Spider Web.
Bai Wuhen hesitated for a moment: "The people who came... are a bit troublesome."
"?"
...
At the first scene at this time, the four examiners were subconsciously leaning forward, trying to accurately identify the identity of the super-species players in the opposite camp through the Sky Eye image.
And when the Sky Eye camera system presented more personal details, the Sven elder of the Dark Night Clan suddenly stood up:
"Excuse me!"
After he disappeared in the holographic projection, the Bloodthirsty Elder sneered and stared at the screen, saying the name of a large non-lawful organization with a great reputation in the Western super-species world: "It's - Demon Cave!"
"Why is it them?" Elder Helian frowned secretly, already considering the possibility of his own intelligence leaks.
But this seems unreasonable: why would the non-lawful forces entrenched in the West snipe a mock exam of a department from a big country in the East?
She finally turned this corner: it was not that the other party targeted the assessment of the Task Force, but that the Task Force sniped the "Big Gamble" copy on their territory, which led to the dramatic reunion!
Then what is the purpose of the other party's preparation for entering the "Big Gamble"?
"Don't worry, Sven has already retrieved the relevant information, and the supremes of various tribes at the second scene will see the information of those guys soon."
The bloody elder snorted coldly: "This is going to be a good show!"
...
"Divine Realm?" Jiang Qian had never heard of this name and did not understand its weight.
"Well, they call themselves 'Divine Domain'. Look at the 'Blue Flame' medals worn on the chests of the leaders, which are symbols of their religious identity."
Bai Wuhen continued to explain through the True Spirit Spider Web:
"But the lawful cardholders of various countries tacitly call them 'Devil's Cave'. This group of people are high-IQ outlaws comparable to the domestic 'Ashes Organization', and they have a large number of believers in North and South America and Europe..."
In Bai Wuhen's narration, Jiang Qian roughly grasped the basic characteristics of this famous organization:
This is an organization of elites, most of whom have a high opinion of themselves, are perfectionists, and have a strong sense of superiority.
The leaders among them claim to be able to "talk to the gods", receive and convey oracles, bring blessings to mankind, and arrange the place after death, which is the symbol of the organization's name "God's Domain".
Of course, the transmission of oracles cannot be falsified, and the place where a person goes after death is even less falsifiable.
Therefore, like most religions in the world, the teachings of God's Domain are also preached and spread with 99 truths wrapped in one false proposition, and supplemented by the extraordinary abilities of super-species players, small circles are drawn in and infiltrated one by one, and finally, It has reached its current huge scale...so large that even the lawful organizations in Western countries cannot escape the blame.
But what is interesting is that apart from carrying out normal religious activities, God's Domain has basically not done anything to embarrass the lawful organizations of various countries, and has always maintained a low-key style of conduct.
"So that's it." Jiang Qian thought thoughtfully, "In your opinion, why do these people appear together in "Gambling"? "
"Perhaps like us, we have already planned it." Bai Wuhen snorted, quite self-deprecatingly.
This kind of thing can "crash", which is quite fate!
But since there was "planning", the other party must have come prepared. Moreover, judging from their appearance, they seemed to be determined to get the result.
Maybe he came here to clear the level and get the first kill.
After figuring this out, Jiang Qian immediately opened the "public channel" within the alliance, allowing Sen Xi and Honghu Yufei to join in and start exchanging information about the Demon Cave.
However, when Jiang Qian and others were closely observing the opponent, the opposing camp was also observing them.
Hence the following internal dialogue:
"Huh? Not Brother Kull's team?"
"It is impossible for the whole army to be wiped out. Did someone get there first?"
"What a damn coincidence! The plan couldn't keep up with the change."
"I'm afraid someone leaked the secret..."
Not only did Elder Helian suspect that the information had been leaked, but the other party also had doubts.
But someone immediately interrupted: "Are you kidding? Look at those gray-faced people on the opposite side. They don't look like they came prepared... Why don't we just make the mistake, get rid of them quickly, and win the first prize before Brother Kuer?" How about killing?”
"I agree! The first two rounds made me choked up, now it's time to have some fun! Hey, look at their skin color, are they East Asian?"
"Ah~ (yawn) East Asians are dragged into the foreign dungeon? How pitiful. Looking at their shabby appearance, you know they won't last long."
Someone threw cold water and said: "The chips of several people combined are not enough for us to stuff our teeth."
"That's right. We have specially optimized the chip allocation to get the current profits. How can the few stragglers on the opposite side compare."
A group of 16 people sang in harmony and followed each other step by step to the central gambling area, facing Jiang Qian and others across the spherical sunken gambling hall.
Although his mouth shouted "boring", his eyes were filled with the instinctive hunting interest of a beast!
It's just that this "interest" is filled with a condescending sense of superiority, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
At this point, both parties have arrived at the central casino.
The central gambling hall located at the junction of the two promenades is a circular sunken area with gambling tables and gambling equipment, and the upper part of the sunken area is separated by a transparent glass wall. It means that peripheral personnel can only observe from a distance, and there is no chance for behind-the-scenes operations.
At this time, the giant chandelier above everyone's heads lit up instantly!
Also lit up were the large public screens hanging opposite each other in the viewing area where both sides were located.
The content displayed on the public large screen this time is much more detailed than the large screen just at the stairwell on the second floor:
In addition to the number of arrivals and personal ID names, the total number of chips held by both camps is also displayed!
When the amount was displayed, Jiang Qian clearly noticed the dramatic change of faces on the opposite side...
Then, he casually glanced at the data on the other side: Number of people: 16; Total chips: 193 million.
I silently commented in my heart: "Good luck."
193 million chips is already not low, which means that once Jiang Qian's camp wins this round, the opponent's 193 million will also be included in their general ledger.
But the people on the opposite side who were boasting and showing off their superiority just now couldn't support such a situation now.
Some people's throats also overflowed with a few exclamations that they had never seen before...
Because the data they saw was: Number of people: 8; Total number of chips: 275 million.
