The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 468 Death Game Part 2 ()

The paper money placed in Terao Yu's hand trembled slightly in the breeze. The cold breath seemed to be attracted by some kind of subtle magnetic force, causing the paper money to move gently in a certain direction.

"There is a reaction." The bald exorcist touched his head, looked at the paper money in his hand, and said in surprise: "It seems that there is really a connection. Could it be that the [Golden God] arcade really exists?"

Terao Yu said: "It could be a trap. Anyway, we have to be careful. Do you remember the precautions mentioned in [Don't eat seafood]?"

"Yes." The bald exorcist said, "The first one: The [Golden God] arcade is a place in the spirit world that only desperate gamblers have the opportunity to enter. If you see a down-and-out gambler near the place where he appeared, you may be able to follow him in, but if you can't find him, you can only rely on these fake "chips". As long as you follow the guidance of these chips, you can reach the arcade that appeared nearby."

"It's a weird place that attracts gamblers to lose their lives..." Terao Yu said, "Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you confirm whether what he said is true or false."

They suddenly stopped at the entrance of a small alley, and gusts of cold wind seemed to blow from the dark alley.

"Let's go this way." Terao Yu said, and they turned and walked in.

Walking along the alley, both of them noticed that the aura around them had begun to change, which meant that they were about to reach the spirit world, where those incredible beings lived.

"Huh? Why is there a person lying on the ground?" The bald exorcist suddenly reminded: "Look over there."

Terao Yu narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, there was a man lying there in a crooked suit. There was a pool of vomit on the ground. If they got a little closer, they could smell a sour odor. If it weren't for his stomach heaving up and down and him still sleeping soundly, they would have thought he was dead.

"Hey, wake up, this is not a good place to sleep." Terao Yu went up and pushed him once or twice, but the man just muttered "Don't bother me...", impatiently opened his hand, then turned over and continued to sleep.

The bald exorcist said, "It looks like he's just a drunkard who strayed here by mistake. The weather isn't freezing cold, so just ignore him. Otherwise, you might miss the time and lose the place."

"Got it." After Terao Yu made sure that this guy was okay, he continued to walk in the direction where the paper money was floating. They had no obligation to care about a drunkard.

At the same time, in a 24-hour fast food restaurant somewhere nearby, Inuyama Heita stuffed French fries in his mouth and said incoherently to Qian Xiaoyi, who was resting across the table, "They have arrived and are about to go in."

"Well... keep an eye on it for me." Qian Xiaoyi lay there, replied lazily, and then continued to sleep. If something unexpected happened to those people later, he would need to rescue them. It would be better for him to sleep more now.

In the alley, Terao Yu and the bald exorcist walked for a while and finally saw a shining neon sign at the end of a corner.

The sign was so conspicuous in the darkness, dim lights shone from the narrow entrance, and there were faint and lively voices coming from inside, as if tempting the misguided gamblers to go in and have some fun.

"It really exists!" The bald exorcist swallowed his saliva. He originally came here with a curiosity in mind, but now that he actually saw it, he felt a slight sense of fear instead.

Terao Iku glanced at the paper money in his hand and said, "We're about to go in, and the next thing is the second thing."

"The second thing to note is..." the bald exorcist recalled, "...the Golden God arcade is actually made up of many different areas, so the scenes seen by each person after entering may be different. The room they enter will probably be determined based on the entrant's favorite gambling game. For example, those who like to play marbles will see an arcade full of marbles, and those who like to play slot machines will see slot machines. Another thing to note is that since the arcade may be built by the Hundred Ghosts, you must be careful not to reveal your identity. Once the identity of the intruder is exposed, you will be besieged by all the monsters in the building, so before entering, you must disguise your aura as an ordinary person, or even an unlucky person with bad luck."

Terao Yu frowned and said, "It sounds really dangerous~ But now that we are here, it would be unreasonable not to go in and take a look."

As he spoke, he cut his index finger with his little fingernail and smeared the oozing blood on his cheek. The black aura and the blood formed a strange symmetrical line on his face, which immediately turned into cracks. At this moment, he looked like a terminally ill patient, extremely weak.

"Disguised as an ordinary person? But you are already a dying man, right? Forget it, I'll do it too." The bald exorcist took out a small black umbrella from his arms, opened it, and raised it above his head. In an instant, his aura became much darker.

"Is that all? Let's go in." The bald exorcist said, "I wonder what it's like inside..."

The two walked through the narrow passage and came to a place that looked like a lobby reception desk. There was no one at the reception desk, and there were different doors on both sides.

Terao Yu suddenly felt his pocket sink. He reached into his pocket and discovered that the few pieces of paper money inside had turned into chips for Japanese mahjong.

"Ah...it has changed." The bald exorcist also saw this scene. His paper money has now turned into plastic chips used in casinos.

Terao Yu said: "Article 3: Players who actively enter this game hall will be regarded as having signed a contract with the game hall. Their souls will be bound to the game hall and exchanged for chips. The type of chips is related to the type of game that one likes. These chips are required to play any game, but if you don't want any accidents, it's best to use fake chips instead of the pile in the hall. In theory, those are your soul chips."

After saying that, he looked towards the front desk, and sure enough, there were two plates on it, filled with some point sticks and plastic tags, which were exactly the type of chips they had, and their two name tags were placed next to the plates.

"Fake chips... I don't know how to fake them." The bald exorcist took his plastic tags and carefully put them into his other pocket, separating them from the fake chips he received from the mysterious netizen, muttering, "Just take them first."

Terao Yu said: "We are in disguise now, just like ordinary weak people, otherwise the chips would not be so few, maybe we can use them for emergency."

When they got their chips, different voices came from both sides of the hall.

On Terao Yu's side, there was the "clattering" sound of mahjong, while on the bald exorcist's side, there was the dazzling noisy sound of the casino.

"It seems that we like different things." The bald exorcist said, "Then I wish you good luck, Mr. Terao, and see if you can steal some benefits from here according to the instructions of Mr. [Don't Eat Seafood]."

"Be careful." Terao Yu said, "After all, this might be the territory of the Hundred Demons."

"Got it~"

After checking their status again, the two walked towards different rooms.
