The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 500: Gambling (9)

Kongo laughed and patted Inuyama Heita on the back, saying, "I don't know what happened, but well done, Heitaro! This way we can avoid the terrible situation where Ashiya-sama can't play due to three consecutive defeats!"

"That's right." Xingba said, "Now we have scored one point, the score is tied at one to one, the pressure is greatly reduced, so even if we lose the third game, Mr. Ashiya will be able to make a comeback."

Terao Yu asked, "But if that's the case... then the upcoming mid-level battle won't be important? Because no matter which side it is, the final win or loss can't determine the final victory. Only the two points in the general battle can determine the outcome."

"No, the third game is still very important." Xingchang said, "It's just not important in the normal sense..."

The red ghost couldn't wait any longer. He waved his hand and turned the game console into a ghost. It opened its mouth and swallowed the boy with dark circles under his eyes. Then it disappeared into the darkness and cleared the space in the middle.

"Hey, the third round of the hardcore battle is about to begin~" the red ghost shouted: "The next project has been decided! This is it!"

Two fancy machines dropped from the sky and landed in the center of the venue.

Everyone craned their heads to look, and found that they were actually two slot machines?
"What's going on?" Liuliyuan Lily asked, "This kind of game is all about luck, right? I can do it if I want."

"No, you can't." Liuliyuan Hongming shook his head and said, "Don't forget, this is something prepared by those monsters, there must be special rules."

The red ghost smiled and said, "First, let me tell you the rules of this game. I call these two machines [Lucky Detectors]. The player's fortune will be revealed during the process of playing the slot machines. The rules are very simple. Both sides send out two players. Whoever wins 100 million yen on the slot machine first will be the winner."

King Kong said, "Does it sound like we need to send someone with great luck? I think I have good luck, maybe I can win. Who of you wants to go?"

Gui Teng Longguang said: "King Kong, don't underestimate your opponent. Those two machines look problematic. Maybe they are transformed from monsters of Gui Yikou and can manipulate the gambling process."

Although they were far away, Chigui seemed to have heard what was said here, and laughed: "You must be thinking that these two machines are cheating machines? Haha~ Welcome to check, but I want to tell you, this time in order to prevent both parties from cheating, these two machines have not been adjusted in any way! And they will not be affected by any external factors!"

"We need to check to know." Xingchang said.

As the logistics staff of the exorcist, Xingba asked the machine to be checked, and then came up and said: "I checked it, it was not transformed by a ghost. He didn't lie this time. I tried to see if I could secretly modify the machine with magic, but I found that I couldn't do it. This is just a very ordinary machine."

"In that case, we should pick someone with great luck, right?" King Kong rubbed his hands and said, "I think I can do it. I've always had good luck."

Xingchang Rang rejected him: "No, the luckier you are, the less likely you will be able to play in this round."

King Kong was dumbfounded: "Why?"

"Because our goal in this game is to lose." Xingchang said.

When these words were spoken, many people here showed surprised expressions, but they immediately understood and thought of Xingchang Rang's intention.

Gui Teng Longguang asked: "You mean... for the priority to choose the general battle?" "That's right." Xingchang Rang said: "Since no matter whether you win or lose this round, it can't affect the overall score, then the loser's exclusive right to choose the event is very important. This is why the opponent chose this event, so the one with good luck can't go up in this round."

Kongo stroked his chin and said, "I see. Did we lose this round to create a favorable situation for Ashiya-sama's general battle? If so, who among us has worse luck?"

On the other side, Chigui sneered in his heart: "No matter who you pick, their luck can't be worse than those gamblers here, right? There are not many lucky guys here, but unlucky guys are everywhere. I will pick out the most unlucky one among these unlucky guys~ Please accept the victory of this round obediently."

"I'll go." Terao Yu suddenly said calmly, "If it's about winning, I don't have much confidence, but if it's about losing, I'm very sure."

King Kong asked: "Is it possible that you have bad luck? I can't feel it~"

Gui Teng Long Guang also said: "Yes, although my strength is limited, I can still feel whether a person is unlucky. And even if your luck is bad, it should be better than that undead below, right?"

Everyone looked down as he spoke, and saw a skinny, sickly ghost appear in the middle of the place.

Chigui smiled smugly in his heart and said, "This guy is born unlucky. He was born with a congenital disease, he doesn't look good, and he is hated by gods and ghosts. Although his disease was cured later, the huge cost also caused his family to fall apart.

After that, he finally got a girlfriend, but she also wanted his money and ran away after cheating him out of money. Then he became addicted to gambling, but before the casino even started to set up the game, he quickly lost everything. Finally, he was left with nowhere to go and starved to death at home. It is said that a winning lottery ticket was found in his hand, but he did not have time to redeem it. "

"Wow~ This guy looks miserable." King Kong asked worriedly, "Mr. Terao, can your luck be worse than this guy?"

Terao Yu smiled confidently, showing his scarred arm, and said, "Don't forget, I am a sorcerer~ and a sorcerer of the Terao family. There is a curse flowing in my body. Although the Terao family has transformed it into their own power, it is still a curse in essence."

Xingba nodded: "I know what you are going to do, so I'll leave it to you~"

Terao Yu said: "Leave it to me, I will definitely lose!"

"It sounds a little wrong." King Kong asked awkwardly: "Is this a declaration of victory or a declaration of failure?"

"Ahem... What I mean is..." Terao Yuya felt that what he said was wrong, and quickly corrected him: "I will definitely help Ashiya-sama to get the right to choose the project back!"

After the discussion, Terao Yu came to the arena and said, "I am Terao Yu, a member of the tribe of the [Witch with a Curse]! This time, I will let you see the power of the curse."

The red ghost said impatiently: "Okay, stop talking nonsense. I don't care who you are, let's get started."

The third round, the battle for the backbone, begins!
Terao Yu and that unlucky guy sat in front of the slot machine and pulled the joystick at the same time, causing the three patterns on the screen to start rotating.
