I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 36 The Path to Becoming a Legend

After Su Wen's 'Confuser' skill was successfully activated.

The security captain of Fars Casino believed him and stopped the dispute that was about to turn into a fight:

"Fern, the owner from the Ice Point Bar, come with me."

In the city of Detroit.

Compared to the White Hound.

Few people know the name Fern.

and so.

In the eyes of most people.

He was no different from any other troublemaker in the casino.

The gray-haired Fern O'Neill glanced at Su Wen. At this moment, he probably needed to re-evaluate the value of this Gore friend.

after all.

He was able to know my information and use it to win over the Fars Casino to frame Les Ondon.

There is a high possibility that he belongs to a hostile company.

Schloter Heavy Industries? Or Isaiah Life Science?

The White Hound didn't have time to think about these things now.

[You experienced the event: Persuaders]

[Obtain a chance to draw a temporary ability card for this game]

[You have obtained the skill card: Buffer]

Skill Card: [Buffer Level 2 (Energy Consumption 0-100%): Based on the proportion of spiritual energy you spend, the next attack will be buffered accordingly]

A nice skill.

Goyle was somewhat of a fun-loving person.

But he didn't think that joining Fern in causing trouble was a good choice. Now that there was room for conversation, he might be able to get the $1,500 reward for nothing.

So I looked at Su Wen with even greater respect.

Favorability also increased further.

"Hey, brother, you are amazing. Indeed, only Les Ondon would dare to do such a thing."

He then said admiringly,
"If it were me, I would probably put the blame on the 'Carnival Team'."

Su Wen didn't answer.

He is sorting out how complicated the forces are in Detroit, the chaotic night city.

The three followed the security captain into the elevator and arrived at Old York's luxurious office on the fourth floor.

York was a fat man. He leaned on the sofa with a cigar in his hand and asked with his eyes narrowed:

“I heard that Les Ondon has his eyes on me?
So, you, the former White Hound, want to win over the Fars Chamber of Commerce?"

Fern knew that Su Wen was using his hidden identity to make the lie more believable.

So he wasn't stupid enough to refute it.

Instead, he gave an ambiguous answer in a hoarse voice:

"Old York, you can't be unaware of what Les Onden has done. Now the Night's Watch has set their sights on them. Do you think you can escape?"

Hear this.

The system prompt in front of Su Wen lit up:
[Information obtained: The secret experiment being conducted by Les Anton was uncovered]

[Note: Maintaining order in Detroit at night amidst the chaos, perhaps you have underestimated the ability of the Night Watchmen]

Except for Old Man Lin in the old bookstore and the disguised identity when meeting the Duke of Bavaria.

In fact, Su Wen has not really come into contact with the Night Watch organization.

The scene continues.

Old York leaned back on the sofa:

"I am really scared, so tonight's 'Coast Neon Racing Betting' is also the last time that the Detroit Falls Chamber of Commerce will fund it."

The fat businessman with narrowed eyes continued:

"If you just want to correspond with me.

I don’t think I have that kind of relationship with the white hound that takes care of the garbage.”

Old York wiped the cigar in his hand in the obsidian jar.

There was a hint of sharpness in the words.

“This city doesn’t believe in friendship or ridiculous mutual assistance.

Only believe in profit and madness.

Fern, what do you want, and what can you bring to me?"

"My daughter has been captured. I must rescue her before those beasts do anything to her."

Fern looked straight at York with his scarred eyes.

Then he said in a deep voice,

"Find out my daughter's information and provide her with admission, and I will clear any possible danger for you."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

York seemed to have become the smiling businessman again.

He said slowly,
“A request that is not too much trouble for me, in exchange for a good opportunity that may cause Lesionton to self-destruct internally.

Sounds great.

But these chips are not enough." He has figured out Fern's bottom line.

Then.

Extracting the marrow from the bones has become something that an unscrupulous businessman must do.

at this time.

Su Wen, who has gradually figured out the relationship between several major Detroit gangs and giant companies, said calmly:

"Putting aside other news. Mr. York, are you interested in participating in a gambling game in person?"

"Oh, what bet?"

The businessman got the message clear.

It was this strange handsome gentleman who prevented an impending conflict.

Compared to bargaining with a white hound that is used to killing people.

Maybe it would save more effort to talk to smart people.

As a businessman.

It seemed to York that this mysterious gentleman was probably the wise man.

Su Wen smiled and said:

"I need a spot in the Coast Neon Racing Slots."

"What do you want, the championship prize?"

"probably."

"So, what if you fail?"

"Fifty-two million dollars."

He showed the account he had earned by "working hard" at Schlote Heavy Industries.

“Greed is good, Mr. York, but it’s not enough if cowardice holds you back.

Then, I can pretend that I never mentioned this bet."

Su Wen sat calmly opposite the American businessman with a California accent, his eyes so deep that it was impossible to fathom.

now.

The initiative also came to his side.

Gore whispered in his ear:

"Are you crazy? Those lunatics in the carnival caravan don't care who you are."

"The city of chaos is full of lunatics."

Su Wen smiled calmly and replied:
“And like you and Fern, I need answers.

Therefore, a sense of ritual and process are also necessary.”

Su Wen has understood the true meaning of the City of Chaos.

There is an order of its own here.

Humans arbitrarily label their perceptions of others based on their own likes and dislikes.

but.

anyway.

A little.

is consistent with:

They need noise.

The noise all night long!
"I agreed,"

Old York squinted his eyes and smiled and said,

"After all, it only took ten minutes. I knew that we could definitely become friends."

[Because you proposed a sufficiently unequal bet, York appreciated your 'confidence' and bank account without thinking you were a fool. 'Farsi Chamber of Commerce' camp favorability +40]

[Currently the player obtains buff: 10-sided dice +]

[Buff effect: 1. The next damage you inflict will be multiplied by the dice roll at the time of settlement (a positive settlement is greater than 9, a negative settlement is less than 9)
2. If you happen to bet on a positive incentive, you will have a good luck that lasts for ten minutes.

at this time.

In his picture, a task chain with a faint golden glow has emerged:

[Hidden S-level mission: A great legend of the city of chaos]

[Unlocking conditions: Friendship level with three or more forces is above +30 (according to common sense, except for giving them money, this is almost impossible to achieve as a stranger)
Or: Become mortal enemies with more than ten forces]

[Completion conditions: 1. Destroy a force with your own hands. 2. Leave unforgettable memories for this city]

[Note: There are two elements to becoming a legend: one, to defeat an impossible task, and two, to be crazy enough]

[Because the rest of Detroit involves multiple ruins and is not far from the border of the Lost Sea]

[The degree of your next achievement completion will determine the future timeline changes: the direction of the "Sea of Fog Route" event, the beginning of the "Rise of Will" revolution]

Su Wen read all the prompts.

Half an hour later.

Amid the boiling cheers and flashing neon lights.

He arrived at the No. 25 preparation area of the Mountain Racing.

In the garage over there.

There was an old racing car of the lowest configuration parked there.
