Chapter 1174: Chapter 1100-additional stakes

After entering the “card table” interface,”the players of this table” could communicate through typing or voice chat. Of course, they could also turn on the video chat function.

Without much hesitation, Feng bujue opened the video and said to the screen,””I’m coming. ”

After a short silence, the user with the ID [host] and a question mark head on the other side of the ‘card table’ also turned on the voice message.””It seems like … You don’t mind exposing your identity.”

“Hmph … That kind of thing, wasn’t it already exposed?” Feng bujue scoffed.

“Oh? How do you know?” The host asked.

“With the resources you have at your disposal … As long as you take a cup or a straw that I used on the Yage, you’ll be able to find out who I am with fingerprints and DNA.” Feng bujue replied,”and … The first thing you said when you opened your mouth was to confess.”

“What?” The host was stunned.

“Hmph … What a slow reaction …” Feng bujue did not give the man any time to react. One second later, he continued,”indeed, I’m currently using my real appearance, and my name is a homophone, but … How did you know? That day on the Yage, you only saw the face of a ‘clown’, and you only grasped the name ‘Crow’… But now, in this virtual game where appearance can be adjusted, the first thing you say after seeing me is ‘you don’t care about exposing your identity anymore’. This is equivalent to telling me that the person you ‘saw’ matches the ‘identity you’ve found. ”

He quickly finished his speech, making the host fall into silence again.

A moment later, the host … Also turned on the video chat function, and then a young face appeared on the screen.

“Let me formally introduce myself …” The host, who had a Chinese-European face (when he was wearing the mask, brother Jue could tell from the skin color of his neck and hands that he was yellow), said to brother Jue with a smile,”…My name is Adolf snow, a rich man who loves ‘games’.”

“Oh, nice to meet you.” Brother Jue, on the other hand, replied listlessly,”since you’ve already looked into my name and occupation, I won’t repeat myself. If you want to call me an artist or a great writer or something … You’re welcome, I can handle it.”

“Ha … You’re really as ‘crazy’ as the internet says.” Snow continued,”crazy. Bujue.”

He deliberately enunciated these three words word by word, as if there was a hidden meaning.

Brother Jue understood the hidden meaning.”So … Your research on me is not just at the level of a ‘file’.”

“Yes …” Snow did not deny it. “After I found out your identity, I became more interested in you … So, I read your books, watched your TV shows, and learned a lot of what you did in Thriller Paradise from various channels …” When he said this, his eyes were shining with excitement.”Hehe … To be honest … I’m really liking you more and more.”

“Hmm … That line of yours …” Feng bujue narrowed his eyes.”It’s very easy for people to misunderstand you in that way.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Snow, however, replied disapprovingly,”I’m bisexual.”

“I see …” Feng bujue nodded.

Then, there was a strange silence for a few seconds.

“I already have a girlfriend.” Brother Jue said after a few seconds.

“Hahahaha …” Snow laughed.”Don’t worry, you’re not my type.” He paused for half a second and said,”when I said ‘I like you’, it was as a ‘game opponent’. I didn’t mean anything else.”

“Why do I feel like you’re intentionally using words that can easily be misunderstood to test my reaction?” Feng bujue was quite sharp.

Snow was stunned for a few seconds before he said,””Fine, fine, you’ve seen through me. I was thinking, if the conversation goes well, I’ll …”

“That hypothesis no longer exists.” Feng bujue immediately interrupted the man.”Say something else.”

Snow shrugged and laughed.”Hehe … That’s fine.” He thought for a while and said,”by the way, about the ‘identity’ just now, there’s one thing I don’t understand …” He then asked,”the day before yesterday on the Yage, since you were very clear … No matter what, I would eventually find out your identity. Then why … Did you still put on such exaggerated clown makeup under the mask?”

“Ha … That …” Feng bujue chuckled.”That was a backup plan that I had prepared to prevent anyone from taking off my mask during the party or during the game.” He explained,”of course, that kind of thing … As the host, you and your subordinates will not do it, because you have all the guests ‘information. Taking a step back, even if you suspect my identity, you’ll still ask me to go out alone and let me take off my mask. ” He paused for a second and changed the topic.”But the other guests … It’s hard to say. If someone were to fly into a rage out of humiliation and rip off my mask when I wasn’t paying attention, my face would be seen by everyone around me. This situation … Was very troublesome.

“Those who were in the banquet hall that day were all upper-class people who had no other choice. Many of them would return to the shore after that night … If one of them recognized me, there would be endless trouble in the future.”

“They actually … Even considered that level?” Snow muttered.

“Isn’t it only natural to consider that level?” Feng bujue replied,”impersonating someone else’s identity, boarding a ship registered in Panama, sailing on the high seas … To participate in a game that is illegal no matter how you look at it; A journey like this … Even if it ends up with ‘being dismembered and buried in the sea’, no one would find it strange, right?”

Brother Jue’s words had a huge impact on Snow’s train of thought.

This was an excellent case study of ‘different situations lead to different ways of thinking’.

A person who brought a full set of wilderness survival equipment to explore the deep mountains and a person who was lost in the mountains empty-handed would consider things in very different directions, and might even be completely opposite.

The things that Feng bujue had mentioned … Snow would indeed consider them. In fact, to make the ‘game’ more interesting, he often considered the problem from the perspective of the ‘prey’. However, he could not imagine brother Jue ‘s’ level ‘.

“Phew … If it’s possible, I really want you to be my consultant.” Snow said after a while.

“I’m sorry, I don’t have any plans to change my career. ” Feng bujue said.

“I’ll give you a truckload of US dollars, how about you consider it?” Perhaps this was a habit of snow. He almost blurted out and used “truck” as a unit of measurement for money.

“I can tell that you’re a person who doesn’t care about money.” Feng bujue did not answer the man directly but replied with that.

“What’s wrong?” Snow continued,”you want to say … You too?”

“Yes, me too.” Feng bujue said.

Although they both looked down on money, their nature was very different. This was because one of them was super rich, while the other …”A gentleman who is poor and will not fall into the clouds” jumped out at any time, and really did not have much money.

“Hmm …” Snow sighed.”I think I know your answer.” At this point, his tone turned cold.”Then … Why did you, who’ indifferent to fame and fortune ‘, come to meet me today?”

“Of course, because I want ‘that thing’.” Feng bujue replied.

“That thing …” Snow snorted.”Hmph … Isn’t it just money?”

“Who said I was going to sell it?” “Didn’t I tell you on the boat that I was asked to collect that?” Feng bujue said.

“Just because someone asked you to …” Snow continued,”you went on a trip that might not be able to return?”

“Why can’t I?” Brother Jue asked in return.

“That is to say …” Snow continued,”today, if you beat me and get ‘that thing’, you will give it to the person who entrusted you without taking a single cent?”

“That’s between me and him. ” “You … Are here to’ play ‘, aren’t you?” Feng bujue asked.

“Hehe …” Snow laughed.”Yeah …’Originally’, I was just here to have fun.”

From this sentence, one could tell that he was about to say ‘but’.

“But …” Snow did not disappoint.”I’ve changed my mind.”

“You want to do it?” Feng bujue’s hooligan-like accent came as he wished, and he was speaking in his hometown’s language.

“Ha …” Snow’s smile grew wider.”We agreed before that in this ‘duel’, my bet is ‘that thing’, and your bet is the hundreds of thousands of dollars that you won from me (he didn’t remember how much money I won the night before, so he said ‘hundreds of thousands’), right?”

“Why? You want me to raise?” Feng bujue said.

“Since you and I don’t see money as anything important, isn’t it too boring to use it as a bet?” Snow said.

“Don’t you think that it’s a little too much to make such a request when the duel is about to start?” Naturally, Feng bujue would not agree to it immediately. He was trying to fight for his own benefit.

“‘Too much’?” Snow repeated those two words and laughed.”You pretended to be my guest, snuck onto my cruise ship, and used a fake identity to take away hundreds of thousands of dollars at my banquet … And I didn’t throw you into the sea, snatch the money back, or illegally detain you for interrogation … Now, you’re saying that I’m too much?”

“Hmm … Now that you’ve mentioned it, it does make sense.” Feng bujue touched his chin like he had just understood and replied casually.

Snow was mentally prepared for brother Jue’s lack of integrity. He suppressed his desire to mock him and went back to the main topic.”In short, what I mean is, the bet on my side will remain unchanged … No, I can even take a step back and give you the hundreds of thousands. However, the stakes on your side …”

“If I lose, I’ll have to be your advisor, right?” Feng bujue asked.

“Ha … That’s right,” Snow was not surprised that brother Jue gave him the answer directly.

“Sigh … I knew it.” Feng bujue read it out loud.”If you don’t want money … You just want people.”

“If you agree to this condition, we can start.” Hearing that there was a chance, snow quickly urged the other party to make a decision.

“Alright, let’s bet then.” Feng bujue did not hesitate.”But this is just a verbal agreement … Do you trust me?”

“Do you still need to say that?” Snow said,”didn’t you also believe that I would give you the thing after I lost without any contract guarantee?”

Feng bujue laughed.”You flatter me. That is because when we made the agreement (it was on the Yage, after brother Jue removed his mask), I didn’t even have the chance to question it.”

“That’s fine. Anyway, I believe you’ll keep your promise.” Snow said,”because the opponent I acknowledge … Must be a man who can win and also can afford to lose.”

…………

Twenty minutes later.

“Your deck is ready.” After confirming the card set, Feng bujue turned around to face the elevator door.

Wuwuwuwu

When Feng bujue pressed the ‘doom’ button, the elevator door opened with a buzz.

Outside the door was an arched stone corridor.

The corridor was made of white stones and was quite spacious. There was an exit more than ten meters in front of him, and the hot sun was already shining through the exit.

[Please choose your dueling equipment.]

The moment he stepped out of the elevator, the system’s voice sounded again.

The next second, a window popped up in front of brother Jue. There were only two options in the window: The [duel control platform] and the [duel board].

Feng bujue chose the dueling plate without a second thought and pressed confirm.

In an instant, a stream of data appeared out of thin air and turned into a white light that wrapped around his arm.

Three seconds later, the white light stopped, and a device that looked like a folded mechanical wing with a blue background, white frame, and red axis appeared on brother Jue’s left forearm.

“It has been detected that your dominant hand is your right hand. The duel plate is installed in your left hand by default. If you want to change the setting, please return to the login space settings.”

[Your duel_disk is DD (Duel_Disk) standard. Please go to the online store to obtain more cool skins.]

During the course of the dueling disc, these two lines of words flashed across brother Jue’s eyes.

“What’s the use of being cool? can it increase the chance of winning a godly draw?” Feng bujue looked at the advertisement-like hint that floated by and mocked internally.

At this moment, he had already reached the end of the arched stone corridor.

When he stepped out of the stone door, his eyes suddenly opened up. The ‘dueling ground’ that he had chosen on the ‘card table’ earlier, the Roman Coliseum, came into brother Jue’s view.

At the same time, from the stone door opposite him, another Duelist, Adolf snow, walked out. He was also equipped with a duel plate.

When the two of them got into their respective positions (there was a cursor on the ground pointing to the duelers ‘standing area) and stood in the huge circular arena, a new system voice sounded.

This time, it was not a “prompt”, but a “broadcast” that directly sounded on the field.

He only heard … A very hot-blooded male voice saying,”Hey, hey!”

[Uphold the rules and etiquette, and have a happy duel.]
