Chapter 239 Death Game (9)
After getting the chips, the three of them walked through the passage created by the pachinko machine. Among the shadows, there were still some people with dull eyes. They were mechanically pressing the launch button of the small steel balls, watching helplessly as the small steel balls bounced back and forth behind the glass one by one, and finally fell into the recycling port, looking like zombies.
"These people..." Inuyama Heita said: "It doesn't look right."
Qian Xiaoyi glanced at it and said: "The remnant souls are left by the gamblers. Obsession, they only have these small steel ball machines in their eyes, and they have lost the ability to think. Later, this kind of cognition was absorbed here and formed part of this ghost land. "
< br>Heita Inuyama asked in confusion: "Is Pachinko really that fun? In that case, wouldn't it be nice to buy one for your own home?"
He grew up watching the news about playing with small steel balls until his wife and children separated, so he has always been able to avoid such things.
Qian Xiaoyi shook his head: "It's not that easy. You can't gamble money if you just leave it at home. Gambling destroys a person's values. When you can get something for nothing and opportunistically If you get a large amount of money and you can double your capital with just a flick of your finger, then the humble wages earned through hard work will be insignificant.
The ups and downs of gambling will infinitely increase a person's love for money. The threshold makes people gradually become insensitive to money. Only the bigger and bigger the bets can stimulate their spirit. Gradually, they will become numb to everything around them, and then lose everything in the big gambles that they want to make back. "
Heita Inuyama shuddered when he thought of that scene. He looked at those gorgeous machines in horror. Now in his eyes, these things have turned into monsters that only eat people but don't spit out bones. , making a triumphant cry while baring his teeth and claws.
Continue walking. The machines along the way seem to be arranged neatly, but in fact they are like a maze. After walking for a while, you will feel dizzy and don’t know where to go.
"Are we lost?" Ajian complained: "These things all look the same, Brother Yi, how does the compass say we should go?"
Qian Xiaoyi curled his lips and said: "Ha~ I The compass is not the one from Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of Gallibee. You can point out where you want to go. It can only be used to determine the direction and tracking. I can quickly take you out of this ghost place from the direction of the living door, but the problem is that we are not going out now~"
"What should we do?" Ajian asked.
Qian Xiaoyi thought for a while and said: "We were brought in by Ashu and Ashi. These pachinkos are the embodiment of the desires of those two gangsters, so the scene when they came in was what they wanted. What you want to see, if you want to play, you have to elicit your own desires and be captured by this ghost Yu Sen sensed it. "
"Is that so? I understand." Ajian nodded, his eyes became determined, and he immediately revealed his true colors after a few seconds, and said frustratedly: "No, it didn't show up. Beautiful girl’s playroom...ah, it hurts, I am against violence!”
Qian Xiaoyi punched Ah Jian on the head and said, "It's the desire to gamble, the desire to win! What are you thinking about!"
"I'll give it a try..." Ah Jian Taking a deep breath, his eyes became determined again, and he suddenly realized something. He suddenly raised his head, pointed in a direction, and said: "It's right there, let's go!"
The three of them started to speed up, trotting along the passage, and finally came to the end of the hall. There was a glass sliding door here, which was extremely inconsistent with the style of the gorgeous hall. It looked a bit old, just like some old arcades. Through the glass door, you can vaguely see the flickering arcade screen inside, which makes people feel nostalgic and nostalgic.
“Go in.” Qian Xiaoyi said.
The three of them opened the sliding door and walked in. The light inside was very soft, even a little dim, but it was just enough for people to focus on the screen.
"There is such a place..." Qian Xiaoyi pondered: "So this ghostland is not just composed of gamblers' cognition, but also has other things? It's really weird."
Ajian I couldn't wait to find a machine that I liked the most, sat down, and put in coins to play.
The moment he put in the coin, the words "Youhaveanewchallenger!" jumped out.
On the other side of this double-sided arcade machine, a dark figure also appeared. His figure gradually became clearer, holding the joystick in his hand, staring at the screen, and mouthing He muttered: "I want to win... I want to win..." "It appeared!" Heita Inuyama said in surprise: "It's a ghost!"
"Probably those gamers who died suddenly, right?" Qian Xiaoyi guessed: "There is indeed such a statement in the news I heard in the arcade room before."
Ajian said confidently: "Humph! No matter what It doesn’t matter who it is! Come on, everyone!”
He chose his favorite character and started the battle.
Then just two minutes later, he lost.
"Ahhhh! Why is this happening! Is it too strong?" Jian screamed, his body became slightly transparent, and some things were absorbed from his body into the machine.
Qian Xiaoyi asked: "Is he a professional player? That guy who is rumored to be competing in the World Series?"
Even if it is just a game, there is a big gap between professional players and non-professional players. Jian's current level can be said to be top-notch among amateur players, but professional players are different. They regard this craft as a living and spend a lot of time practicing every day in order to participate in various Getting bonuses from competitions is not on the same level as amateur players who play ticket games.
"I don't accept it!" Ajian said with a ferocious face: "No one has ever dared to humiliate me like this! Only I can humiliate others! Do it again!"
Ajian is naturally strong in games He was about to throw in another coin, but Qian Xiaoyi stopped him in time. He said helplessly: "Idiot, don't be so impulsive. Don't forget where this is. If you keep losing like this, you will lose everything! You are Ghost, if you lose everything, even I can't save you!"
Ajian was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately gave up: "Then I won't play anymore, it's so scary here!"
"Don't worry, I didn't say I wouldn't let you play, just give me the game coins." Qian Xiaoyi said.
“Here you go.”
Qian Xiaoyi held the game coins in his hand and looked at them for a while, then nodded and said, “Ajian, stretch out your hands and hold them.”
"Huh? Oh." Ajian didn't know why, and stretched out his hands as if to catch something.
I saw Qian Xiaoyi closing his eyes tightly, muttering something in his mouth, and forming a magic formula with his hands, which was constantly shaking above Ajian's hands. The next second, the golden game coins fell from Qian Xiaoyi's fingers. The water kept flowing out from the gaps, falling into Ajian's hands like rain, and piled into a pile, making a crisp sound.
"So many! So many game coins!" Jian exclaimed exaggeratedly, unable to control himself with excitement. It felt like when he went to his hometown during the summer vacation when he was a child, and the manager of the nearby game console store was a relative of his, and he gave him a lot of game coins at once. It’s so fun to play.
When Ajian was almost unable to catch it, Qian Xiaoyi stopped and said with a smile: "That's enough. I'm curious about the consequences if I beat these machines."
Ajian sat back excitedly and continued to challenge the opponent.
Qian Xiaoyi turned to Inuyama Heita and said: "It's just a little cheating trick. I imitated the cognition of the soul chip and copied a bunch of fakes. Now it seems that I can fool them, so now ... Let’s go and have some fun too.”
As he spoke, he showed his palm, and a small steel ball was quietly placed in his palm, shining brightly under the light.
