Chapter 20 Gambling Apocalypse
Browsing through his own information, Li Kai looked directly at the extra line in his personal panel.
[Main mission: Keep winning, keep winning!]
Then there is a small font prompt that follows: There are no side quests in this copy.
Just as he was thinking about this mission and how to enter the dungeon, a voice came out of the microphone.
"Welcome to the 23rd Creative Voyage. The purpose of this journey is to relieve young people. Please come to the podium."
After saying this, the man stepped aside, and at the same time, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather jacket with a cold and contemptuous face came up to the podium and saluted respectfully. The latter just glanced at him and then stepped onto the podium.
The young people full of energy who gathered together rushed to the podium. Li Kai felt a little familiar with the scene in front of him, but his brain was still a little groggy and hindered his thinking, making him unable to remember for a while. This awkward feeling made him
He fell a few steps behind, and when he was about to catch up, two people came up beside him.
He didn't notice this at the first time, and it's unclear whether the potion that stunned him was highly effective or was used in a large amount. I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to return to his normal state in a short period of time.
"Hey, brother, are you a player too?"
At this time, a slightly lowered voice came from my ears.
Li Kai turned his head somewhat sluggishly and found that the person speaking was a young man with an inch of hair. He had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were lively. At first glance, he was someone with an active mind.
Before he could respond, another voice sounded from the other side: "It must be a player, but judging from your appearance, you shouldn't have entered the dungeon normally, right?"
Li Kai swallowed the words that were on his lips and looked to the other side.
The female player with cute short bob hair smiled, and two dimples suddenly appeared on her face. She met Li Kai's gaze and said with a smile: "Hello, my name is Li Yan, and he is my brother, Li Yang."

Li Kai nodded and said slightly dullly: "I am Li Kai."
After he finished speaking, he realized what he was doing and actually said his real name.
In "Metaverse", it is very easy for players to identify each other, and it can even be seen at a glance. It is an intuition that cannot be described in words and cannot be blinded by any known means, but other than that
In addition, there is no method such as probing that can directly read the other party's information.
Therefore, when Li Kai interacts with strangers, he always uses a pseudonym, such as Natsume, but this time due to his dazed state, he accidentally revealed his real name.
Although this may not necessarily have any adverse effects on him, he, who has always been used to nip problems in the bud, hates this feeling.
"Hey? Your surname is Li too?" The short-haired young man chuckled, "There are four people with the surname Li in one copy. What a coincidence."
"Four?" Li Kai asked doubtfully.
"The fourth one is over there." When it came to the fourth one, the short-haired young man looked unhappy. He pursed his lips to the right and said in a strange tone: "A bitch who only knows how to cling to the strong."
In the front right, a slightly gloomy young man who was walking at the back of the crowd approaching the podium suddenly paused after hearing these unabashed words and turned his head to look grimly.
"Taro, excellent people always make people jealous, and curse words are the most powerful way to hurt people." The person walking in front of the gloomy young man also stopped, raised his hand and patted the young man's shoulder encouragingly.
With a slight smile on his face, he looked polite but could not hide his arrogance as he looked at the three people who were lagging behind.
"I made you laugh, Mr. Saito." The gloomy young man named Li but called Taro bowed down and said in shame.
"Hmm." Saito, whose face was unusually pale, turned around and followed the others casually. The two women around him, who were about the same height as him but had strong breaths and were dressed in suits and trousers, followed closely, like bodyguards.

Li Tailang raised his head, glared at Li Yang and raised his hand to wipe his neck, then followed him.
"Li, Taro?" Since he looked dumb from the beginning, Li Kai simply used this as a disguise and directly asked the questions he had.
"Maybe no one will be named Li in the future. Hum, Tailang, only a dog would be called such a name." Li Yang sneered, then waved his hands in annoyance and said, "Let's not talk about this dog anymore, let's go over there.
."
Naturally, these words could not escape the ears of the gloomy young man. His footsteps sank, his hands clenched into fists, and his whole body shook, but he was suppressing his anger.
At this time, Li Yan came closer to Li Kai and lowered his voice: "I wonder if he is grinning now."
Li Kai smiled, glanced at the girl, and then looked at the back of the gloomy young man, thinking to himself: Fortunately, he couldn't hear, otherwise he would definitely not be able to hold on to the string called reason.
At the same time, the middle-aged man with a well-oiled three-quarter haircut who walked up to the podium was already reading in a calm tone according to the script he had written in advance.
"Good evening. I am Tonegawa. I am the supervisor of this gambling game tonight. Before we start, please buy three stars. Each one costs one million."
As he spoke, the man who had previously called everyone to the podium raised a golden five-pointed star the size of a fingertip and showed it to everyone.
As expected, Tonegawa's words caused a burst of noisy discussion. After all, one star is one million, and three stars are three million. No matter how poor the purchasing power of Japanese yen is, three million is still a lot of money.<
/p>
Of all the people under the podium, only seven players, including Li Kai, remained calm. But unlike the others, Li Kai looked at the scene in front of him and already knew what dungeon he was in.

"Gambling Apocalypse"!
His eyes wandered through the crowd, then turned back and locked onto a young man with a face that could not be seen from the side, and gradually narrowed his eyes.
Tonegawa did not make a town roar. It seemed that these low-level minions in the audience were not worthy of his anger at all. He continued to speak in that indifferent and calm tone: "However, I believe that you are all penniless, just for convenience.
, we will lend you the money you need."
There were sporadic voices in the audience saying "Why do we need to borrow money?", but they were not connected together, just like a small wave on the sea that didn't matter whether it existed or not.
"And this three million loan will be calculated at an interest rate of one percent per minute."
As Tonegawa finished these words, a tsunami of angry voices suddenly erupted from the audience.
One percent interest per minute. How can there be such a way to calculate interest in the world? Let alone three million in principal, even if it is three hundred thousand or thirty thousand, as time goes by, it will still be a terrifying amount of money.
Amount.
"Don't worry."
