Chapter 140

Four veteran players, all participating because they received the Strange Game's invitation mission, while the three newcomers were selected by the 'Strange Game' during the game and brought here.

Lin Ye recalled the experience of coming to the 'Love Heart Hotel' with Hoshino Ai.

It seems that the people selected and the type of game also have a little bit of a relationship.

"There is a piece of paper on the conference table."

Celestia discovered something and spoke up.

This made the veteran players cast their gazes over, and several of them frowned; they hadn't seen any paper on the conference table just now.

The blonde Western beauty closest to it supported herself with one hand, bent over, and reached out to take the paper.

[Welcome guests to the 'Royal Casino'.]

[This casino has a long history, rich experience, and enjoys a very high reputation among the vast number of gamblers.]

[Guests can participate in any entertainment and gambling activities in this casino, and can rely on their own skills and luck to obtain a large number of game coins.]

[This casino prohibits the use of player skills.]

[This casino prohibits the use of violent acts to snatch Strange Coins; once discovered, it will be handled seriously.]

[When a guest obtains 50 Strange Coins, they can choose to leave this casino and return to reality.]

[Note: This casino possesses a large number of top-quality weapons, props, game skills, etc., which can be exchanged just with Strange Coins. Don't miss the opportunity.]

[From now on, it is time to witness the skills and luck of all guests.]

[Looking forward to the performance of all guests in this casino.]

[Hope you have fun!]

"Not a rule-based game."

The blonde beauty handed the paper to Lin Ye, and Lin Ye read it quickly and passed it to the red-haired strongman Jack.

Compared to 'rule-based games', the rules for this Strange Invitation mission game are very simple, but simple doesn't mean it's really easy to pass.

"Two questions."

Lin Ye raised his finger.

"First, is the gambling in the Royal Casino here really the same as our real-world gambling? Are there any differences in form?"

"Second is that gambling requires capital, and we don't have any Strange Coins."

Lin Ye continued.

"Where should we go to obtain our first Strange Coins?"

'Knock knock knock...'

At this time,

There was a knock on the door of the conference room.

The next second, accompanied by a 'click...', the door of the conference room opened.

The moment the figure appeared, the high school girl was so scared that she retreated several steps, her face pale, and she almost screamed.

That figure was wearing a black suit and had a tall posture, but it had two heads, and two pairs of eyes were looking left and right, as if observing everyone in the conference room.

The green-haired hooligan's eyes widened, his heart was uneasy, and he had no sense of security at all.

He was bold; from childhood to adulthood, he was the one who bullied others, and no one dared to bully him. After becoming an adult, he acted even more recklessly, and his behavior was extremely bad.

He had also heard of the urban legend of the Strange Game, and even fantasized that the world really had a Strange Game, and if he became a player, he would inevitably become a winner in life, with power, wealth, and beauties all within reach.

He successfully participated in the Strange Game, but where could he have imagined that the first strange monster he faced would be this kind of two-headed, evil-filled monster!

And the four players, including Lin Ye, had normal expressions and didn't react much.

Being able to reach this step today, just the appearance of the monster alone could no longer have much impact on them.

"I am the manager of the Royal Casino; respected guests can call me J."

"Given that the seven guests are visiting our Royal Casino for the first time, this casino has specially provided a total of fifty Strange Coins as the guests' starting gambling capital."

It took them out and placed the Strange Coins in front of the conference table.

The black Strange Coins reflected a dim and mysterious luster under the light.

"I don't think this is just given to us simply, right!"

The middle-aged man in a suit, Fat-Gor, spoke up.

He didn't think Strange Coins could be obtained easily.

The manager smiled, and both heads looked at Fat-Gor at the same time, but Fat-Gor remained unmoved, his expression always very calm, as if he was already used to it.

"Yes, guest, as long as the guest participates in a small activity organized by our casino, the winner can control fifty Strange Coins."

"What if we refuse!"

"This casino will never force any guest to participate in this activity."

"I want other ways to obtain gambling capital."

The blonde beauty Sophia stared.

Starting capital only by participating in activities organized by the casino? This kind of activity sounds like a trap.

"Of course there is. This casino provides a service to exchange chips for Strange Coins using the guest's belongings."

The manager continued.

"Hands, feet, heart, kidneys, game skills, and even souls—this casino will exchange chips based on the collateral provided by the guest. If the guest wants to redeem them, they only need to use Strange Coins to redeem the collateral before leaving this casino."

"Friendly reminder: the Strange Coins for redemption will be twice the Strange Coins obtained from the collateral."

"How much can my soul be collateralized for?"

The manager examined carefully and gave an estimate, "Five Strange Coins."

Blonde beauty: ???

Is my soul worth so little?

"What about my kidneys!"

The red-haired strongman Jack asked in a calm tone.

"0.5 Strange Coins."

Not worth much!

Losing one kidney wouldn't affect the subsequent casino activities much, but at this price, the red-haired strongman Jack had no intention of collateralizing it for exchange.

The manager's gaze swept around and quickly fell on Lin Ye.

"For this guest's soul, this casino is willing to give a collateral price of 20 Strange Coins."

Lin Ye: ???

"Not interested."

"Fifty Strange Coins."

You raising it so much directly makes people suspect that my collateral price is more than ten times that.

"Not interested."

"Regrettable."

But everyone had ideas about Lin Ye.

The more valuable the soul, the higher the collateral price. Clearly, the Royal Casino manager thought Lin Ye's soul was the most valuable, and was even willing to let him take the initiative to ask and raise the price to seek a deal.

"Can our game points be exchanged for Strange Coins?"

Equipment, props, skills—these are all precious. Although game points are precious, compared to other things, game points can be consumed.

"Sorry, guest, the player's game points are not within the scope of exchange."

Celestia also asked a couple of questions, but the answers she got were not ideal.

It was very clear.

The manager hoped, explicitly and implicitly, that they would participate in this game activity organized by the casino.

"Tell us about the game content!"

"Very simple, find the Ghost Card."

The manager took out a Ghost Card and displayed it in everyone's field of vision.

"I will put the Ghost Card into the deck, shuffle and cut the cards, and distribute them to every participating guest. As long as the guests vote to determine the holder of the Ghost Card, the players who vote correctly can share fifty Strange Coins."

"The voting result is based on the choice of the majority of players."

"That is, if four out of seven guests choose guest number one, and three guests choose guest number two, the result is 'guest number one is the holder of the Ghost Card'."
